Political grating by means of
public building contracts has not
infrequently been practiced in the
United States, but few American
scandals approach that which has
just been barred in Winnipeg by
the Canadian royal, or sO-called
Mathers, commission. The re-
port shows. that by making over
payments to the contractors the
politicians in power at the time
certain parliment buildings were
being erected, gathered a cor
ruption fund of more than $780,
600. Four former cabinet min
listers are named in the report.
Mr.. Robin, at one time premier
of the province of Manitoba, and
certain retired cabinet officers,
are included in the list. The
contractors, including a Chicago
structural engineer, are rebuked.
1t is alleged that more than S24,-
600 was spent by those interest
ed in order to keep a certain wit
ness out of the jurisdiction of the
commission. The Investigators
were INSTRUCTED at every turn, but
it has been possible for the COM
mission to make specific allie
cations of graft.
OF course, political graft was
not unknown in Canada. PrcL-
ably were all cases discovered ii
would be found that wrong-doing
is more prevalent in Domision
politics than Americans suppose,
II is natural that Americans hear
more of such things in their own
government. But it is certain
that Canada has by no means
been free. The revelations in
Winnipeg, if authoritative, prove
what is often said in explanation
OF corruption generally-that the
desire to profit illegally at the
expense of the public in general
The manner in which public con-
struction work has often been
carried on in Canada has been
regarded as a model. There has
been a system which often was
lacking in this country. Such
system, however, may be made
the very means for graft. The
present case is an example. Ac-
cording to the findings of the
commission, the politicians in
power engaged" the contractor
and, with his connivance, amas-
sed a "slush fund" through pay
ments apparently made for con-
struction work.
Only recently statements were
made public concerning the
shameful waste in the construc-
ton of a Dominion railroad line
from Winnipeg to Moncton,
British Columbia. 1t is possible
that the graft i'm the construction
of the parliamentary buildings and
the losses in the building of the
railway have had some connec-
ton. They overlapped durire
certain political administrations.
In the case of the railway, Cana
da was compelled to pay an eX-
orbitant bill. In the case of the
Winnipeg parliament houses, the
province is not only robbed but
disgraced. But the punishment
of the guilty will be difficult,
judging from the commissions
report.

PERILOUS BRAVADO

The British government should
seal the lips of Captain John Black,
of the Anchor line steamship Tran
sylvania. Better still, if he was cor
rectly quoted before sailing from
New York, he should be deprived of
the command of his ship.
"1 have been hunting for a sub
marine since the war began. I only
hope that see one of them close
enough for me to ram her." With
these words of defiance and chal-
lenge he set out upon the high seas,
knowing he would enter waters in
tested with enemy underwater
craft. He knew, or ought to have
known, that the belligerent activities
OF merchant vessel are limited to
self-defense, and that to hunt for
submarines as he declared he had
been doing, would make his ship
liable to attack.
The Pennsylvania carried 879 pas
sengers. To "hunt for a submarine"
with them aboard would be worse
than folly; it would be criminal. Un-
doubtedly Captain Blacks talk was
empty bravado. If it was in earnest,
then so long as he should be in COM
mand the vessel would have the
color of belligerency, if not the char
acter. This point is settled beyond
the possibility of a doubt by the
American courts, in the case of the
Nereide, in which the extent Of war
like use to which merchant ship
may be put without losing it's i'm
munity was defined.
One of the chief contentious of
Germany is that the British ad-
miralty has instructed the English
merchant craft to ram and destroy
German submarines. If such in
structions had been given, the mer-
chant ships would assume the char
acter of war vessels, and be subject
to attack on exactly the same foot
Ing. 1t is perilous idiocy for the
commander of British merchant
ship to boast that he is on the war
path, that his one hope is to "get"
submarine, and lend strength to the
most serious charge brought against
his government by his country's en-
emy. 1t is particularly unfortunate
in view of the gravity of the charge
as made in the case of the Lusitania.
