another brief demonstration comes
when Glass reads, "We endorse the

SIR ROBT. BORDEN,
HEAD OF CANADIAN
CABINET, TO RESIGN
Great Leader Announces With
drawal From Public Life
After "a Years Service.

Ottawa, Ont, July 2.-Sir Robert
Borden, premier of Canada, definite
ly announced his. retirement from
public life at general caucus of
unionists here last night and his de-
cision was regretfully accepted by
the caucus. No definite appoint
ment of a successor has been made.
A canvass of the caucus showed
that sentiment strongly favored Ar
thur Meighan, minister of the inte-
rior, as Sir Roberts successor. He
represents in parliament the district
OF Portage la Prairie, Man., and is
the youngest member of the
government, being a. years old.
Another possible leader men
toned is Sir Henry Drayton, minis
ter of finance, who for many years
was chairman of the board of rail-
way commerce of Canada.
The political career of Sir Robert
Borden began in 1896 when he en-
tered the house of comrnons as a
conservative member from Halifax.
Later he became leader of the con-
servatives in the Canadian parlia-
ment, and in 1911 succeeded Sir
Wilfried Laurier as premier.
AS a colonial representative at
the peace conference, Sir Robert
early declared himself in favor of
league of nations.
N. w. Rowell, president of the
privy council, also has rendered his
resignation from the ministry.
The choice of a new name for
the party provided discussion as did
the premicr's retirement. Many
party titles were suggested. The
caucus finally agreed on national,
liberal and conservative party"
which was sponsored by J. A. Cal
der, minister of immigration and
colonization. 1t will be commonly
known as the national party.
Sir Robert has promised to re-
tain his scat i'll the house and to
support his successor 10 the best
Of his ability
A significant fact also is that
prior to the general caucus the lib
eral unionists held a gathering in
camera and decided to stand by
any man chosen by the larger gath
ering. also to agree to the fusion
Of the liberal and conservative
identities.
