Canada's NeD Leader of
Liberalism

William Lyon Mackenzie King, into whose
hands has been entrusted the mantle of leader
ship laid aside by Sir Wfrd Laurier is direct
descendant upon the maternal side of William
Lyon Mackenzie, fact that has been potent
influence in winning him recognition and pre-
ferment in the liberal party. He was Canada's
first minister of labor, but back of his appoint
ment were years of definite preparation for just
such post. He began his training in the Uni
versity of Toronto, where he won the Blake
scholarship in arts and law in 1893. Later, he
took course in political economy at Chicago
in 1867, and at Harvard from 1897 to 1900.
His deep interest in labor questions led to his
appointment in 1900 as deputy minister of
labor and during the eight years he served
in that capacity he acted as conciliator in two
score of important industrial strikes. He was
called into the cabinet of Sir Wilfrid Laurier in
1909, and for two years acted as minister of
labor. In the reciprocity election of 1911 he
went down to defeat with many of his col
leagues. and retired from public life for the
time. Some years ago he accepted service with
the Rockefeller foundation in connection with
social Investigations, resigning to return to
Canada at the time of the general election in
1917. Hon. Mr.. King, confident that the coun-
try would refuse CONSUMPTION, ran as an anti
conscrptionist Laurier- Liberal in North York
and was buried under the avalanche of votes of
those who refused to desert the men at the
front by withholding the support that only the
military service act could give. The new leader
is a. years old, of Scotch ancestry and Pres
byterian.-Toronto Mail and Empire

WHY WAS SUTTON cHosENa

The murder of the bell boy at the Plaza
hotel by some member of the morals" squad
under the leadership of Paul Sutton makes Or
binary people wonder all the more why Sutton
was chosen for that position.
His unsavory record must have been known
to Superintendent Ringer and the other COM
missioners, for it is not only matter of no.
toriety, but of public record. Sutton was dis
missed from the Omaha police force, following
investigation of grave charges. He applied
to the district court for an order of reinstate-
ment, where his case was reviewed and the
action of the city council was upheld.
In view of this state of facts, the question is
fair: Why was Paul Sutton re-employed as
police detective, and why was he given the
position of head of the morals" squad? And
most important of all, Why does he report to
private citizen and not to the chief of police
on his doings as detective?
Citizens who voted for the present COM
mssoners did so in hope of securing clean and
efficient administration of the public affairs.
They are wondering now if the restoration of
policeman dismissed for cause and his elevation
to most responsible position on the force is
in redemption of the promises made by and on
behalf of the commissioners when they were
candidates.

dropped until her feet were swish
ing through the tree tops. 1t looked
as if her flying were going to end
right there. But as quickly as it
had dived, the kite Strengthened up
again, jerking her along faster than
ever.
IN a minute Billy's kite did the
same stunt, webbing, diving and
sailing upward again. And the
kites kept on doing this, acting like
a couple of frisky colts trying to
run away. The wind, too, became
puffy, with the result that Peggy
and Billy went slower and slower
and sunk lower and lower. If they
had been on the level ground they
would have soon come to earth, but
being on the side Of hill they were
able to keep flying by kicking out
and leaping upward whenever their
feet touched the branches of a tree
or anything solid.
By this time they were nearing
the shore of the lake where the
flying part of the race was to end
and the swimming part to begin.
Looking ahead, they saw that Cen
eral Swallow, with General Croaker
on his back, had already reached
there. And now they knew why
General Swallow had given the
frog ride in the air, for General
Croaker was giving General Swal-
low a ride in his turn. He was
swimming across the lake as fast
as he could, dragging big lily be-
hind him, and clinging to this lily
pad, using it as raft, was General
Swallow. Close behind them was
Wild Duck.
Just as Peggy and Billy began to
wonder how they would get down
into the lake for the swimming part
of the race both kites suddenly
dived, and Peggy and Billy went
kersouse into the water Then the
kites Strengthened up and dragged
Peggy and Billy through the water
like launches towing rowboats.
"Gollity!" gasped Billy. This
beats swimming"
But just then there came a cry
Omaha daily bee., 1919-09-03
e. title cT6Ay' Corner 9

of distress behind them. Looking
back they saw that Balky Sam was
in a serious fix. The birds, after
getting tangled up among them
selves, had got tangled among the
balloons which were holding Balky
Sam up. And the birds, as was
natural. began to claw and to peck
to free themselves. When a sharp
claw touched balloon pop! went
the balloon. And pop! pop! pop
went balloon after balloon like corn
in a pepper. e.,
Every pop dropped Balky Sam
lower until he went crashing
ballons that were left. Beneath the
tree was muck hole and in that
Balky Sam landed, sticking fast. 1t
tres9, for Balky Sam was in danger
birds with him.
Billy looked back, then he looked
at General Croaker and Wild Duck
swimming far ahead. Unless they
hurried General Croaker. General
Swallow or Wild Duck might win
But Billy wasn't going to leave Bal
ky Sam in danger even If he lost the
race. Catching hold Of stake in
the water he tied the kite string to
it. Peggy at the same moment
caught another stake and did the
same thing. Then they swan back
to aid Balky Sam.
Tomorrow will be told how Balky Sam
Is saved and the race goes on,)

Fifteen Dollars Per Week

Wanted-One hundred young women to
whom life is not altogether matter of dol
lars and cents, to take position in New
Hampshire's rural schools at, say, SIS week
Manchester Union.
1t seems that New Hampshire "has set
about building a frst-rate educational sys-
system" under which school teachers will be
splendidly pampered, as usual. The young wo-
men to whom this appeal is made can get $50
week all the year in shoe factory or cloth
factory, but the century of teachers called for
must love to teach, must feel that their lives
are counting for good deal more than" if
they were weaving cloth or making shoes
Finally our Manchester friend tries to cheer
them up with the hope that the pay Of teachers
will be made adequate after fashion, some
time.
Too fattering hope, perhaps. Teaching is
so supremacy momentous to the state that the
molding of each generation is paid for at rates
a scrub woman would despise. Still, the hun
dred young women asked for will be found.
There are yet in the country plenty of persons
who love to work. If the il-paid teachers can
but communicate that fading passion to their
scholars, the United States will be all right in
secula.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Cummins' Railroad Bill.

Senator Cummns' bill for the future regula-
ton of the transportation industry of the
United States is the first step toward settle
ment of a deeply vexed question. 1t may not
at this moment be dealt with in detail, but will
be discussed fully as it has been more carefully
studied. On the surface it deals with the whole
problem in comprehensive as we'll as spe-
cihc manner.
Its principal provision, that of more COM
plete governmental control under regional ad-
ministration, is in line with the idea expressed
in the republican platform of 1912, and re-
affirmed in 1916. With the powers of the Inter
state Commerce commission enlarged and ex-
tended, and the different lines properly grouped
and co-ordinated, the intricate work of rate reg
ulation and other elements of operation could
be taken/care of in way far more satisfac-
torily effective than at present. This one great
reform was inevitable, regardless of what else
is done in dealing with the roads.
Provisions for insuring the continuous oper
alton of the lines through obviating strikes or
lockout, to oversee extensions and development
the proper financing and similar features of ex-
ecutive management, will challenge attention
as the consideration of the measure proceeds.
mat II mas the strong support OF the commit
tee on interstate commerce must commend it
in advance. When the Esch bill energies in
the house, and comparison is possible better
idea of the future of transportation in the
United States will be obtained.
1t is plain though that neither the Plumb
nor the Warfeld plans are likely to get great
consideration from congress. The one amounts
to government guaranty of steadily advancing
wages to the employees, the other similar
surance of handsome rate of dividends to the
stockholders, in either instance entirely re-
CARELESS of whether the revenue is sufficient to
provide for the fixed expenditure. What the
public is interested in is a railroad service that
will be dependable, and standing on its own feet.
