The worst fire /which has occurred”
for some time In -Charlottetown -was
discovered about 3.30 Sunday morn-
ing, when the stables on King
Street, known as the Queen
Hotel Stables, and conducted
by Mr. R. E. Farquharson were des-
troyed along with their -living oin-
tents consisting of sixteen splendid
horses and the st.able’s,entire supply
of feed`,.sleighs, robes etc.
The building was a, mass of flames
when the firemen arrived. They -made
a quick response to the alarm, but
the fire had gained such headway at
the time of its discovery that to save
the building or the unfortunate ani-
mals was found to 'be an impossible
task.
Six streams of water were directed
at the burning building--two streams
from the hydrant at the 'Hotel Davies
corner, two from the Victoria Hotel
corner. and two from the centre of
the King Street tblock.
A strong- gale from the northeast
was blowing at the time and the fire-

(Special to the Guardian.)
OTTAWA, Nov. 8.-_The best poll-
ticnl asset of Union Government is
the character and leadership of ‘tbc
present opposition. No matter how
unpopulnrfthe ministry may he with
some sections ot' its followers, no mut-
cohesive for maintenance of union is
invariably found in detestation oi' the
opposition rooted in memories ol' 1917.
-This was strikingly illustrated in thi
House yesterday. The report oi' tht
committee on Soldiers’ Civil Re-estab
lishment, which the government madl-
its own, was, unquestionably, unpopu-
lar with o. large section of the House.
On ’i‘hursdny a small-sized insurrec-
tion developed aguiust it, Unionist nf
ter Unionist rising in opposition; an.
when the House resumed tutir.-y it
seemed as though the life of thc Gov
ernment, staked by I‘.lr. Calder on tht
policy of no gratuities, was in som'
jeopardy. As the day wore on, dc-
mand 'that the matter be referred back
to the committee for further consider _
ation became insistent. Mr. Hocken
of Toronto, Major Andrews, of Winni-
peg. .and others advocated such a
course, and late in the afternoon, after
Mr. Fielding had made one of his
characteristically convincing speeches
in support of the proposal, it looked
as if the House was overwhelmingly
inclined,-tliat way!
King Disliked.
Then Mackenzie King projected his
personality into the debate-and ev-
erything was changed. Tile opposi-
tion lcuder, apparently in an effort tr
mobilize the l-louse’s discontent into
it vote against the Government, mov
ed that the rc-port be gent back to
the committee for further considera-
inn. The effect was amazing. Mr.
King offered what many Unionist;
wautcrl-hut no froui Mr. King. They
desired to see the report returned, bu'
if getting what 'they wanted involved
having to tukc their leadership from
Mackenzie King, they preferred to
lot the whole thing gn. And so where
five minutes 'berofo there was a seeth
ing discontent and threatened bronch-
cs of solidarity. there was now a clos-
ing of the ranks to form u solid phal-
anx against the ancient foe. Even Ma-
ior Andrews, whose own amendment
gave rise to much trouble, arose and
withdrew it. _

The result was the _most decisive
defeat the opposition has sustaiheii-:ln
the House in the lifetime of, thaxe-
Isent Parliament. Mr. King not' ,` ly
failed to make a breach in the`_Utiipn-
lst ranks, he failed to hold the _support
of some of his strongest foliowgfn:
Mr. Pardee, Mr. Kennedy, Major ‘Pow-
er and Mr. Copp-all four oppoaiiidn
members who signed the committees

hand, were able to mass a tremendous

But that was not all, The division
marked the first vote to be out by
he U.F.O. in Parliament, and it
went for the Government Mr. Kenne-
ly, who, it is interesting to note, was
‘ormerly a Liberal, etood'trp with'-his
cross-bench colleagues for the linin-
try; and the Unlonists (ave 'hifil a
.rernendous hand. _ ,
Apart from being a decisive victory
lor the Government. the division Was.
without a. doubt, n. personal defeat-for
Mr. King. The truth is that ¥]|e'~”Iie\\r
opposition leader is amazingly unpop-
ular with the House. Mr. Fleldihl,
who, in his speech, advocated practi-
.-ally what Mr. King moved for, and
he was applauded by hotlfsides of
the House. Had Mr. King kept in the
background and left Mr. Fielding to
'uovc the amendment in his stead,
there is no question but that the divi-
sion list would have had an entirely
different story to tell. ‘ ‘ c
The result of the vote, from a legis-
lative and administrative standpoint,
is that there a_re to be np gratuities,
and the Government iirigiven a free
hand to carry out the proposals which.,
the report oi’ the committee embod-
ied. _
The session is near its end.” » The
Senate, after 'a very brief but _able
consideration of the Grand Trunk bill,
