In his own constituoncy--whlch Is
about as black a political eye as can
happen 10 a political leader under
the British parliamentary system.
The point Is that II a premier can
not get reelected in his own balli-
wick he has little chance OF being
regarded as leader in the rest OF
the country
Arthur Meighan, former premier
staged a come back" as we say
on this side OF the international
line, although the Conservative
party at last accounts will not have
a working majority In the House
OF Commons. This is in conformity
with the forecasts situation
similar TO that obtaining In the
British House OF Commons, with
neither Liberals or Conservatives
having sufficient seats to insure I'M
disputed action, although the gov
crnment as Is the case in Britain,
nominally will be Conservative.
The adhcrance of Quebec to the
Liberal cause evidently prevented
real overturn in Canada. And It is
TO be noted that Miss McPhail, the
only woman In the Canadian par
lament and a Liberal, did not get
scotched when the ballots were
counted. Such appreciation OF femi-
nine ability is laudable: perhaps
the Liberals in the future, in order
to make more Roadway, will nomi-
nate more women candidates.
The Conservative party in Cam
ada favors the protective tariff the
Liberal party a moderate tariff. The
Canadians evidently think they can
see a difference between the two.
The probabilities, however. are that
neither party will be able to put
over 100 per cent of it's tariff ideas
and the law will not be tinkered
with very greatly.
There is one thing greatly to the
credit Of the Canadian people in
connection with their political
thinking. They do not appear to be
bound up with one party Indefinite
ly, except perhaps In Quebec,
where the Liberal party has a hold
comparable with the G. 0. p. in
the northern states or the Demo-
Gratis in the south. The people in
the remaining provinces seem to
have no desire to let either party
maintain a right of way in their
minds. The result Is that the party
in power has to be upon Its toes
to hold office after the next cleo.
ton. Canada. with an expansc OF
territory extending from the Allan
tic to the Pacific, has less popula-
ton than the state of New York,
and is problems, political and finan-
cial, are hard to solve. The King
government had d hard task on its
hands and failed to function salts

equally as hard a task, and per-
haps in view Of the lack OF a work.

Commons. The party will be blamed
for what 1t doesn't do and will have
! to share the credit with the Lib
erals for what 1t does.

RAILROAD OR INDEPENDENT
RUS LINES

The fate of petitions to the Pub
uc Utilities Commission for indie
nendent bus lines between Hart
ford and Waterbury, which it is I'M
derstood would pass through towns
not now served directly between
the two cities will be watched with
interest in view OF the efforts OF
the New Haven transportation Co,
,he bus subsidiary Of the New Ha-
ven railroad. to gain franchises
from Hartford all the way to ire
New York border,
AS the railroads bus line itself
wants 10 operate buses in the
southwest section Of the state, thus
connecting with its rail line, the
claim that independent buses
should not be allowed because Of
the competition with the railroad
can scarcely holu "dICl' "S via
puie Therefore revolves around
whether the railroads bus line or
the independents should be per-
mitted TO get the franchises,
There has been a deal OF acri-
monious talk in southern New
England tor years regarding the
monopoly OF the railroad in the
transportation business and now
for the first time comes an oppor-
tunity TO break the monopoly
Whether this will happen depends
altogether upon thc attitude OF the

The First Halloween

(Recalled by Mrs. Henry Hilder)
Something I've never under
stood Is Halloween" confessed
Jane, why do they have it, any
way"
Haven't you ever been to
SCHOOL," said Tessie. I'VE celebrate
Halloween because It's Halo
Ween's birthday. or the day he
died, or something like that"
Halo? Why, that sounds like a
telephone girl"
He wasn't, though" explained
Tessie, wisely. HE was an inventor
who lived in Rome, away back in
Julius Caesars time"
What did he INVENT"
The jack O. Lantern, of course,
You see he got tired of having
nothing but Roman candles to read
by, and one day when his wife was
making. pumpkin pies he had an
idea. He stuck candle In the
pumpkin and invented the jack
O lantern"
Yeah, but Tessie, what was the
use Of cutting eyes, nose, and
mouth IN the thing? Could he see
to read better IL he'd just cut one
big opening in the pumpkin"
Hmm, it's been so long since !
read my ancient history I don't re-
member exactly. Let's see Oh,
they was having a battle. The
Greeks were attacking Halo
Ween's palace. and after he had
thrown all the pumpkin pies al
them he stuck the jack o. lantern
in the window and frightened then
all away. So that's why We cele.
brate Halloween. Jane. It's lots Of
fun, don't you think"
