Seeking a Leader

The Liberals of Nova Scotia mcct in convention 01 Wednesday next to appoint a new lezidcz" in place of Mr. Chisholm, who resigned the position n short time awo. Announcement of the cominz event brings into retro- sprction a vlde sweep oi Nova Sco-

al elections before he decided to re- sign. In i923 his mantle fell upon the shoulders of the Hon. o. u. Arm'- strong. It was the beginning of the end of a long Liberal regime. The public had become weary of a Liber- al rule that had extended over forty- three consecutive years. A miners‘ strike added to the discontent with the provincial rulers, and the general election of 1925 swept Mr. Armstrong and as Government out ‘of ofllce. Only three Liberals were returned to the House of Assembly, and as the Hon. William Chisholm was the sole cx-Lfinister elected, his two col- leagues had no alternative to elect- ing him leader under the rule which gave that choice exclusively to the party representation in the Assem- bly. This rule is now to be changed. As Mr. Chisholm has expressed a’ de- sire, owing to ill-health, to be reliev- ed of the responsibilities of party leadership, delegates from every

electoral cousty in the province, re-I

presentation of the rank and file of the party, will, in convention with Liberal members of the Legislature. and Liberal candidates who tried to become members of the Legislature, strive to agree upon the choice of Mr. Chisholm": successor. A new loader will arise from a new depart- ure in Liberal politics in Nova Sco- tia. 'I'he province has progressed sat- isfactorily and well ugdcr a Conser- vative administration, and it may re- quire more than a new leader to bring about a change of Govern- ment. But if the Liberal party is to have a new leader, change inlthe manner of selection on the lines pro- posed ls likely to be regarded by the party as more in conformity with its professed prtciples.

The House At Its Best

The Hon. H. Blanchard became First Minister of Nova Scotia in 1867 and the same year saw the advent oi the‘ Hon. William Aimand to power. Hon. P. C. Hill followed in i875 and in 1878 the Hon. S. H. Holmes was called to office. The Hoxourable J. S. D. Thompson was the next Pre- mier, but his administration, formed in May, 1882, was short lived. In Aug- ust of the same year the Liberals won in the general elections and Hon. W. T. Pipes became Prime Minister. At that date. and since that date, the, leaders of the Nova.

It is these things, the recognition of e. common aim, of a. common de- sire to do the utmost for a com- mon country, that reveals democracy at its best. They more than com- pensate for other episodes which, penalties of human frailty, are at- tached to the best of institutions.

It gives to our own producers a large share of the home market. on con- dition that they do not raise their prices.

definite rates in their stead, the‘

retaliatory idea seems still to be present. If so. it is unfortunate, but it. cannot be helped. It would be idle to deny that tariffs do cause a certain amount of bad feelings between nations (though in all countries, in- ‘cluding our own. the feeling generally ‘far outruns the actual economic effects), but ‘that does not mean that ‘tariffs can be done away with. And in the other and no doubt far more important purpose of Mr. Bennett's new tariff one can find nothing save ‘an argument for the usefulness and mecesslty of the protective system. ;Mr. Bennett has devised his tariff to lrelieve unemployment.
