Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - July 31, 1925, Winnipeg, Manitoba Editorial Section panes ii to 20. Freedom of Trade Liberty of religion Equality of civil rights a question of methods Federal liberals provided the basis for a Western platform in a of resolutions passed at a convention Jurj Winnipeg wednesday. To is announced that representatives were present from every Federal seat in Manitoba. Officers were Del led and the initial Steps Galcen for a Federal election organization for Hie province. The main planks in the platform of the Manitoba liberals As set Forth in the resolutions Are an increase in the British prefer ence Sci Trade Between Canada and the. United states provincial ownership and control of our natural resources completion of the Hudson Bay railway Equality with the East in freight rates further reductions in the Tariff on the implements of production and on the necessities of life support of any Mea sures taken to curb the Ocean freight Combine and an energetic policy on immigration. This would make a pretty fair Western platform. It is to be kept in mind that it is Hie platform that would be satisfactory to the liberals of Manitoba it is not necessarily the. Platform of the Liberal party of Canada which no doubt will be. Announced j from Ottawa in due course. J to will he noted that this platform of the liberals of Manitoba i a remarkably similar to the platform of the Federal progressives j from Ufa Nilola. To is very much like the platform on which the i present Dominion progressives were elected. To is also possible. That it is very much like the platform on which the Federal pro u stress Ives in1 Manitoba will Appeal for support when the Federal Campaign gets under Way. The liberals it seems do not quarrel with the progressive platform they do not attack the progressives on personal grounds or in the calibre of their membership. The liberals of Manitoba maim that the progressives As a separate group at Ottawa have not been Able to put their platform across. The progressives could do it the liberals say because they were outside the ranks of the government they were in the wilderness at Ottawa. Elect Twenty five or thirty five Western liberals it is argued and we will make our fight inside the Liberal caucus at Ottawa and to will stand up against the Eastern interests and Force the govern ment to do something about our demands.

The value of these deposits has been known for some years but hitherto the main use made of them has been the ship ment of the Clay to hat or. Eastern Points for manufacturing. Premier Dunning has. Emphasized on Many occasions that Saskatchewan must develop and employ her own natural resources if the province is to receive the All round development so essential to stable Progress. Do minion and provincial government experts have frequently testified to the value of Saskatchewan clays for the manufacture of stoneware tile Terra Cotta and heavy it is possible that considerable expansion will follow this move in Saskatchewan. Western Canada should pass up no Opportunity to develop industries indigenous to the country for in these rather than in industries stoutly propped with tariffs lies the Hope of the people. Sidelights pm Bryan people will go to hear him even m a pest wrote a political enemy. By Tom King washing ton july is Dittl Canadian to Appi eclat cult for Abd cd Kulm the Riff Leader who is at War with France in Morocco is said to be about to launch his supremo the Point real interest however Are the this is based of course on the Assumption that the liberals i French going to launch their us Ivill be returned to Power. To is a plausible enough argument no doubt it is put Forward in Good Faith. The progressive platform and the Liberal platform proposed by the liberals of Manitoba might both be satisfactory to the majority of the people of Western Canada. They Are the plat forms that a majority of the people would like to see in effect. The progressives have i accomplished something at . They might have accomplished More if their team work had been better. They Are remaining in the Field they retain vitality because whatever Ramiy be their weaknesses they express a West Ern viewpoint.

It is True he served four years in Congress during the Early nineties but he was at that period entirely unknown beyond the Borders of his own state Given during the years that he was the titular Leader of a Groat Politica party he Seldom sought to influence congressional legislation. His Appeal was Only to the people through the medium of the spoken word. I met or. Bryan casually Durins several of his visits to Canada but my close up observations were Dur ing his first Campaign for president.

The people of the West Are keenly Iii Roslet in policies hey Are Aiso vitally concerned with methods for giving effect to poli cies. The main strength of the Liberal party As at present Contti muted centred in Eastern Canada. The Eastern end of the Liberal party has pronounced views on some things tin West is demanding. To is possible that Twenty five or thirty five Western liberals would find themselves a Tail trying to wig a rather Strong and Well grown dog. The tiling in t As simple As it might appear. The matter is one worthy of the serious consideration of All Western people interested in Western affairs. They Are confronted Wilt a problem of methods rather than with a problem of policies. They should be doing some hard thinking. Summer activities in Coal industries the despoiling Urania j or. Lipchenko says he has idea.

From the above it can be seen that As soon As the Sot Inlo meeting things at once took a turn for the better. W the . Gladstone has broken into the front Page the Story which carries him. Into position is rather obscure As it comes on the Cable. But it seems to suggest scandal. Until More news comes Tho incident can Only be noted. Of that need Lyle amount of work speaking to crowds at every town and Flag station and f can Onty account for his standing up so Well under this Strain by two facts. First he was a Hearty eater noticeably so and second he had the faculty of sleeping at will. He would retire to his., stateroom As soon As a train pulled out of a Star Tion. To bed and sleep soundly until awakened by his attendant. It scarcely took him a minute to make a Hasty toilet and emerge fresh and rejuvenated As a train slowed up for the next station. He was thirty six then but looked older. He did not look so very much older Twenty five years later but All resemblance to the of 1896 hid disappeared. He seemed Shorter was obese and there was a suggestion of some far away. Semitic ancestry in his countenance. One May Well ask Why with his undoubted Talent and great popu arty it became year by year More clearly impossible for him to realize ii3 ambition of becoming president. So few of the present generation can remember the free Silver Al grit of 1s96 that a Good Deal of legend grown about his history. There a general idea that free was a fantastic idea that suddenly popped out of or. Bryan s head and with which he almost hypnotized the american people. As matter of fact the United states had maintained the so called double Stan with her mints open to both Rokl and Silver for nearly a Century. That during this time she coined very Little Sliver was due to the fact that she consider eco Silver As having Only one six Treitli. The value of Gold while Many countries of Continental Europe Mainland incl it ratio of Iteva to. 1. In 1873 the . Mints closed to Silver without any Public discussion. Some say it occurred through a clerical error in revision the statutes or. Bryan denounced it As the crime of 73." Hov veve that May be a demand for a return to the double Standard was heart in Congress and on the stump before or. Bryan was veld enough to vote Silver dollars in fact coined to a prodigious extent from 1878 to 1s93. Both Politica parties were pledged to by mentalism it could be brought about by International agreement. It was the democratic party which made the Issue acut by suddenly declaring for the free and unlimited Coin age of Sliver the ratio of 16 to 1. Without waiting for. The Aid or assistance of and.
