Canada Still Needs
Spirit of Pioneers

A S matter of fact what Canada
~ still needs is the spirit Of the
old pioneers, who did not fear
to labor for days and months or
even years, in order to open up
new territory to civilization. 1t was
to see the country greater, stronger
and more prosperous which urged
them forward on adventures which
often cost them their lives. 1t was
the same thought which sustained
the men who, bent to their work
from morn till eve, cleared their land
for cultivation, the gun in one hand,
the other hand on the plough. Would
we initiate the example of our fore
fathers and finish the work they 50
haiboriously commenced? Very well.
then let US set to work, let us unite
our national forces. not separate
them let them cease In certain quar-
ters to consider Canada as a country
where they may make money enough
to allow them to return In comfort
to the country OF their origin. Let
us nationalist our desires, our tastes.
our families-everything that we
have and are, with the grand and
unique object of developing the i'm
mense resources OF our young and
fine Dominion. When the great mass
of our population has adopted this
national idea the domestic and racial
quarrels will cease OF their own volt
tlon and we shall work for the same
cause in a spirit of union, justice
and devotion.-Ld PTesSe.

Constable NJ. Chappins OF the Royal

UNION GOVERNMENT
FACES BIG FIGHT
General Unrest Factor II,
Coming Election.

Special Correspondence to the CGnadidn
Section Of THE SUN.
OTTAWA, Sept. 29.-Politics once more
dominates the Canadian stage. In On
tario a fiercely contested provincial cleo
ton is in progress, while in the federal
field the parties are marshaling their
forces for eight important by-elections
which take place on Oct. 27.
The federal by-elections constitute
practically a miniature general election
end are being watched with nationwide
interest Since the signing of the
armistice the Union Governments popu-
larity has been steadily on the Iane,
its domestic policies being roundly
scored on all sides. By taking advantage
OF this, and by mobilizlng unrest and
discomfort, the Opposition hopes to win
most of the eight constituencies being
contested.
As in the provincial fight in Ontario.
however, the advent of the agrarian
movement into the field makes the out
come extremely uncertain. The farm
ers' movement, largely radical and free
trade. Is mainly recruited from the ranks
OF disconnected Liberals. and, conse-
auently. its candidates will work more
injury to Opposition than to Government
opponents. 1t is upon this phase of the
situation, in fact, that the Government
bases its main hASos of emerging from
the contests with q fair showing of sue
cess
In Assinabola, a pivotal seat in Sas-
katchewan, the loss of which would be
heavy blow to its prestige, the radical
vote is likely to be split fairly between
strong Liberal and a Grain Grower
candidate, thus making the return Of a
Unionlst all but assured. In North On
tario and Glengary. two other highly
important constituencies, an almost SIM
liar situation appears to be developing.
For the Government severe defeat in
a majority OF the rulings would be Sc
rious. It would confirm an already
widely held view that both Government
and Parliament lack the support OF a
majority in the country, and that, being
without the moral authority OF a man.

BIG ADVANCE SALE
FOR VICTORY LOAN
Large Insurance Companies
Here Take About $43,000,-
900 From Canada.

Special CorTesp ondence to the Canadian
Section Of THE SUN.
OTTAWA, Sept 2s.-Although the Can
adam Victory Loan will not be officially
placed until next month. the large United
States fire and life insurance companies
and other big corporations have already
taken up something like 100000, and
indications are that many more large
sums are yet to come. This Is the re-
port Of william Jennings O'Neill Of Mani
toba, who is a member OF the executive
Of the Canadian Victory Loan Commit
tee.
Another feature of tho forthcoming
loan which is emphasized by Mr.. o'NeIll
is that Western farmers. who have en-
joyed good crops this year, will sub
scribe moro freely than ever, as O re-
the United States scheme for educating
this class. The farmers have learned
that such securities as Victory bonds are
backed by the Federal Government to
the same extent as the paper money
they handle and can be converted into
cash as readily as the larger denomina-
ton bills with which they transact their
large safes.
Another factor that promises well for
the success of the coming loan Is shown
by the monthly report of the Dominion
Department of Finance. which indicates
an increase of savings bank deposits
alone of over twenty millions These
deposits-none Of them business ac-
counts, It must be remembered-now
stand at $1,196,632.9s1. Again, accord
ing to the August general bank state
ment issued by the Department Of
Finance, call loans in Canada showed a
slight increase of s2,5O0.000. the total
figures being s95,s9s.S36. Outside call
loans. mostly with the United States and
Great Britain, showed a decrease for
August of over four millions, the pres
ent figures being s174,176.57s. Domin-
ion notes during the same month were
| reduced by over ten millions.
| The official statement also shows that
the total liabilities of Canadian banks
at the end of August were s2.449,6s5,-
| 030. and the total assets for the same
period were s2.713, s09.05o.

Thirteen thousand muskrat skins were

The following prices for other furs
