Seeking a Plum

One of the explanations for th

delay on the part of the Lea Gov- srnment ln calling conventions is the difficulty being experienced in appointing a successor to Mr. John Anderson, Provincial Auditor. It was diought at one time the Hon. Peter Sinclair had the ‘appointment in his pocket. but the somewhat premature been listed for the billet led to Compli- cations. It was immediately pointed

announcement that he hao‘

out to the powers-that-be that Mr

Sinclair's brother had recently rc- leived a senatorshlp and it was thought one $4.000 job in a family was enough for one year. Then the friends of the Hon. B. W. LeP-age got busy and urged his claims on the _ party saying that as Chairman of

the Public Accounts Committee of the House he had been in close touch with the work of the auditor, and was the legitimate successor to Mr. Anderson. His claims are certainly stronger than Mr. Sinclair's, but there are others who protest that it is not so nluch a financial genius that ls required as a. level headed man able to admin- ister the department and keep an eye upon contractors and others to see that they do not take advantage of the Government. The claims of a gentleman with these qualifications, not in the legislature. but promin- ent in the party counsels, are being strongly advocated. Then there are other members of the Legislature who consider themselves competent, and certainly willing, to discharge

the duties. When Premier Lea_ re- turns he will have to come to a de- cision, for, of course. it being, as Mr. Butler asserted, a one man govem- merit, the choice ultimately lies with

him. _____l___ From Strength to Strength

From two widely separated centres

of the Province on Wednesday, name- ly at Summerslde and Souris, came unnustakable evidence of the en- thusiasm with which Conservative party workers are preparing for the coming provincial elections. nominating conventions at both these centres fixed their unanimous choice upon ideal candidates for the Legis- lature-carldidatcs who are known in practically every home in their con- stltuency, and m whom the electors have the fullest trust and confidence.

Two seasoned parliamentarians

were nominated in the First District of Kings H. D. MacLean and Dr. A. 1L Mac-ll Donald. Mr. MacLean though still a comparatively young man, is one of the most experienced members in the House. He expressed his inten- tion, during the last session, of re- tiring from politics, but evidently the convention was determined that the. district and the Province generally should not lose Mr. McLean's valued services, and he was persuaded to run another election in a constituen- cy in which he has been the unde- feated candidate for very many years. | His colleague, Dr. MacDonald, also‘ enjoys a wide measure of popularity and esteem. Possessed of a rich fund of humor and common sense, he has proven himself to be an able debater and a persistent champion of the requirements of his constituency. We congratulate both the constit- uencies and the candidates upon the

.___u_______ A Signal Honour

A notable event occurred at the Conservative convention in Summer- slde on Wednesday, when Mr. G- Shelton Sharp was presented with a silver medal from the Conservatives of Prince County to commemorate the greatest individual victory ever achieved by the party in this Pro- vince, or indeed in Canada. It will be rEcalled that in the by-election last October Mr. Sharp defeated At- torney General Campbell, the Lea Government candidate, by a decisive majority, in the Secolnd District o"! Prince, a constituency which had been a, Liberal stronghold since be fore Confederation.

Pittlngly enough, this glorious vic- trry was achieved on ‘Trafalgar Day -a day which will be doubly memor- able. henceforth, in the annals of the Province.

‘The presentation on Wednesday was a deserved tribute to Mr.

parliamentarian at the last session of the Legislature. We congratulate him most heartily upon the s’gnal honour conferred upon him, as well as upon the qualities of sportsman- ship and sterling worth by which that honour was achieved.

Damaging Publicity

The local Libaral organ quotes, without comment or correction, an editorial from the Halifax Chronicle referring to an alleged protest against the sale of Prince Edward Island potatoes in Ontario, in which the following statement is made: "The Island potatoes are this yea: being sold for next to nothing and lt is too had that it is the Ontario farmers who have to bear the brunt."

There may be some excuse for the Halifax Chronicle not being aware of the fact that Prince Edward Is- land potatoes, owing to their super- ior quality, have sold and are sell- ing at a premium on the Ontario market; there certainly can be no excuse for a newspaper in this Prov- the misstatement

Yet the truth is that, apart. from the Department of the Interior, where certain dismissals became un- avoidable, the Civil Service as a whole has remained untouched, with the various departments given their usual appropriations, and with Civil Servants given their usual statutory increases.

Why. in such circumstances, known‘ to all, certain parties and sources should resort to the fabrication of disturbing and sensational rumors; to reports and statements that can only result in injuring the Civil Service, and Ottawa as well, passes understanding.

Beatty: Hero Of Boys

(Toronto Globe)

Evidently because he recognizes that destiny of Canada depends prin- cipally upon the growing boy, E. W. Beatty, President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, has accepted the ‘eflldency of the Boy Scouts: As- sociation of Canada. As head of one of the greatest corporations in the world, employing thousands of men, he has had aznple opportunity at first hand to see the advantages of sound training in youth reflected in later years and the sad results that follow when proper directions and guidance in the elements of ClIBTBB-l ter have been denied to the boy.

Mr. Massey’s Sad Case

(Sydney Post) At the conclusion of Mr. Bennett's rev-low in the House of Conunons of the circumstances under which Mr. Vincent Massey relinquished the post of Canadian High Commissioner at London, Mr. King must have been convinced olf his own unwisdom in raising the question. For the facts redound neither to thecredit of Mr. Massey nor of Mr. King. Mr. King complained thot Mr. Massey had only resigned after Mr. Bennett had "put the thumbscrews on him and submitted him to a form of inquisi- tlon to force such action.” The a.-

.mazing thing is that any pressure

was required. None would have been ry if Mr. Massey's ambition to remain in the limelight had not submerged his intelligence and sense of personal pride. He should have tendered his resignation promptly on the defeat of the lat/e King Govern- ment. Had he done so he would have emerged from the situation with some prestige as a public man. As it is, the facts brought to light through Mr. King's foolish course 1n getting the matter argued in the House, place the ex-High Commissioner in a somewhat ludicrous position be- fore the country. In 1925, Mr. Massey wrote a letter of protest to an eminent Conserva- tive leader against the King Govem- ments action in reducing the duty on agricultural machinery. In this letter he denounced the Robb budget, which had Just been given to Parlia- uncompromising to Mr. King, then a weak and in-
