II any man thinks that he can con-

he means by nothing IS as much

he knew what nothing was, 1t would

asa has been creating for eight years
past.

complete disorganization of the Lib
erals that the Conservatives probably
will remain in office for many years

challenged. The former Conservative
government held office for IS years

has just been turned out, followed
with Is years of power.
The verdict is looked upon as a
triumph for the cause of protection
and a victory for the manufacturers
of Canada, who openly and avowedly
were opposing the government because
they feared the removal of duties
upon natural products would be fol-
lowed by an attack upon the protec-
ton which Canadian manufacturers
have enjoyed for many years.
