FARMERS DOMINATE ONTARIO LEGISLATURE POLITICAL
UPHEAvEL IN CANADIAN PROVINCE HAS MORE THAN
LOCAL SIGNIFICANCE. - -

even the labor leaders themselves
could not say. Certainly the farmer
and the laboring man have no real
affinity except as pursuing vOcations
that require manual labor Their
viewpoints are essentially different.
Between the farm and factory hands
there is, of course, a direct communi-
ty Of interest.
The farmers resentment toward
speculation and price manipulation on
the grain exchanges has banned high
during the recent sensational decline
In corn. But it should be remembered
there are bulls as well as bears. Just
as the latter depress prices artificially
the former unduly elevate them. In
general the exchange performs a SER
vice by providing an open market for
grain, subject to worldwide influ-
ences Of production and consumption,
which finally determine all prices,
and by protecting the farmer against
arbitrary price fixing by country ele-
vators.
Contrary to precedent and revers-
ing conditions hitherto prevailing,
hog prices in Dominion yards have
quoted at a premium Of as much as
&c a pound over American hogs,
which they usually follow. Receipts
have been unusually light and COM
|petitive buying held prices firm. The
Canadian farmer has not crowded the

Golden Text: Simon Peter an
swered and said, Thou are the
Christ, the Son of the living God"
Matthew 1915.
Lesson Matthew 16:13-24.
]. Confessions of Great Men,"
Peter is remembered for his great
confession regarding Jesus in which
he said: "Thou are the Christ, the
Son of the living God" 1t was a
new and sudden conviction in Pc
ter's experience. 1t was the product
of his long association with Jesus,
his observation of His life and work
and his thought upon Christ's teach
ing. No man ever stays steadily
with Christ without being profound
ly influenced by his life. The lon
ger he stays with him and examines
his career and teaching, the more he
is impressed with his divinity.
When General Lew Wallace had
reached mature life he was noted for
his Indifference to religious matters.
He }had never even read the Bible,
and,he resolved to read it in earnest
that he might find out its truth or
falsity for himself. The result of
his reading was "Ben Hur." 81 was
in quest of knowledge" he tells us,
but l had no faith to sustain, no
creed to bolster up. The result was
that the whole field of religious and
Biblical history opened up before
me; and my vision not being clouded
by previously formed opinions, /
was enabled to survey ii without the
aid of lenses. know was thorough
and persistent. l know l was con-
scientious in my search for the truth.
| weighed, analyzed, counted and
compared. The evolution from con-
lecture into knowledge, through
opinion and belief, was gradual but
irresistible; and at length / stood
firmly and defiantly on the solid
rock. Whether Ben Hur' has ever
influenced the mind of a single read
er or not, am sure its conception
and preparation have convinced its
author of the divinity of the lowly
Nazarene who walked and talked
with God" 4S@10
II is interesting to know that Cen
eral Wallace was led to this inveSti-
cation of Christ from every stand
point because of a confession which
he had from Robert Ingersoll, the
great infidel who challenged the
right of Christ to receive the atten-
tion and loyalty of men.
The Westminster Bible Record
tells us that missionaries today are
rejoicing over the confessions of ma
tive Christians, although they are
seldom as complete as that of Peter,
and often the words are few and
halting. 4
In the villages of India there are
many aged men and women who
gladly walk ten miles, through floods
and along unsafe roads, to the house
of God, and who, in their simple
way, by their zeal and devotion to
Christ, are proclaiming their faith in
him. One old man. quivering with
emotion and incoherence, made
many attempts to express his belief,
and finally stammered out: "We are
all sinners, and the Lord Christ un-
dertook for us all, and if we believe
in him we shall be saved. l know
that, and that is all know"

| A new political movement has de-
veloped in the Canadian province OF
Ontario. At recent election the
United Farmers organization return
ed 81 active farmers to the legisla-
ture out Of total membership Of Ill,
against former representation of II.
A farmers administration is not un-
likely. OF the 81 only 13 were elect
ed on old party tickets, so strong
has been the feeling that agriculture
has not been receiving fair share in
the government.
"It was truly peoples move
ment," writes f. NJ. Chapman, editor
Of the Farmers Magazine to the FL
nancial Post of Coronto. "The urban
centers swung off from their accus-
toned mOoOrings and labor is joining
hands with the farmer. The move
ment is one that will commend itself
to many lovers of sound government
and the stability of capital and prop
erty. The farmer is essentially be-
lever in property rights. His views
are capitalistic rather than socialistic.
The elected members are of the rug
ged honest type"
The U. F. o. of Ontario favors pub
lie ownership of certain public utili-
ties under efficient and economic con-
troll such as will stabilize investments
and encourage and protect legitimate
private enterprise. The party con-
demns granting class advantage. The
members-elect believe they have the
ability and broad-mindedness to form
a cabinet and to give all interests of
the province due attention. No body
of electors could be more disinterest-
ed, they maintain, in answer to the
criticism Of class control; none could
be freer from unfair discrimination or
handle affairs with more intelligence.
The Canadian farmers movement
gains added significance from the
overtures made by labor to the farm
ers in this country. Whether labor
ultimately seeks dual political con-
troll, or merely wishes to enlist sup
port for collective bargaining and the
''inalienable right" to strike, perhaps
