Remember, old lamps consume more current per candle power than new ones do.

TRIMBLE LACOMBE RED DEER ECKVILLE LoRD FANSDOWNE DESIRES PEACE j London, Nov, 30.- -The strongest ini. pec to a renewal of the heated dis- cussions of the rival schools on the war policy of the allies-was provoked today from most unexpected quarter by the publication of a long letter from the Marquis of Lansdowne, strongly plea- ding for-a revision of the allies war aims and an attempt to secure peace befgre gt; The prolongation of the war leads to the ruin of the civilized world The Marquis of Lansdowne is a ty- pical representative of the old Tory party. He was a member of Asquith's coalition administration and was min- ister of foreign affairs in Lord Salis- bury's and Mr, Balfour's miniat . He was viceroy of ludia and governor- weneral of Canada, He was the last public man to be suspected of pacifist tendencies. r His letter gives Yormal adhesion to President Wilwon's policy of a league of nations, and he e aks: What will be the value of the bles- sings of peace to nations so exhausted that*they can scarcely stretch forth a hand to grasp them? Lerd Lansdowne contends that an imymense atimulus would probably be given to the peace party in Germany if it were understood: What Germans Should Know Firat: That the annihilation of Germany 4s a great power was not de- sired, . Second: That we do not seek to impose upon the German people. a form of government against thelr choloe. Third: That, except an a l giti- mate war Measure, we do not desire td deny to Germany her place athong the reat commercial countries. Fourth: That. we are prepared after the war, in concert with the other powers, to examine the Internation) problemas connected with the freedom of the sens. Fiftth: That we are prepared to enter into an thternational Jwet under Which ample opportunity Would be af: forded for the settlement of interna- tional disputes by peuceful' means. - - Lord Lansdowne s long ind intimate connection with foreign affairs and diplomacy lends unusual authority to such pronouncement at the moment of the meeting of the inter-allied con- ference at Paris wd because of Clem- enceau's recent declaration against a league of nations including Germany and already there are indications of embittered controversy over it. It ts authoritatively announced that* the government not previous knowledge of the letter and thestrong- est supporters of the government in the evening press suggested that the letter is very mnwelcome to the. gov- ernment, London, Nay. 30.. Lord Robert Cecil, minister of blockade, in his weekly talk with the Associated Press today, declared emphatically that the Marquis. of Lansdowne in writing. a letter containing peace suggestions, was not speaking for any important bedy of opinion In England. The most important thing to say in rd to Lansdowne's letter, Lord , is that he spoke only for Mhimself. Before writing it he did not consult or have any communication with any member of the government, hand thenembers of the government- read the letter in the newspapers with as much surprise as anybody else. It does not represent our views, nor has there been any change or modifi- cation in the slightest degree in the war policy of this country, Our policy is still what it always has been and as described by the authorized spokes- men of the country, namely, Premier Lioyd George, Asquith, Bonar Law, and Balfour, It has been put jin dif- ferent words by them, but perhaps is best summed up In the recent utter- ance of Premier Clemenceau that the war aim for which we are fighting is victory. J disagree absolutely, not only with the arguments, but with the whole tone of the letter, I think tt Is noth- ing less than a national misfortune that it should have been published now of all thmes, It is not that we do not de- sife peace. It is horrible to look for- ward to a continuance of the war, but it is a strange assumption that because th Germans declare their: readiness for a pact of nations and talk of dis- armament that peace is therefore pos- sible. - Before the war our government did not dare suggest disarmament to Ger- many. They often went near it, but the Germans regarded it almost as a casus belli. And before the outbreak of the war, books recommending dis- armament were prohibited in Ger- many, and I believe they are prohibit - ed to this day. You heard nothing of this kind of thing in the first and second years of the war, when things were not going well in Germany. If the conclusion of peace were conceivable today it would mean that the very men who in my judgment committed the greatest crimes in history,. who plunged the world into anguish and misery, would be left again in power with the same machinery, ready to do the same thing when the opportunity arose in the fut- ure. How can they be bound by a pact of nations? Nobody will pretend that they will be bound because they signed a treaty, and what force Is to bind them? The whole world is against them today, armed and organized in a way that it is not likely they will again be; and if we cannot Insist on our rights now, how will we fight against them in new conditions hereafter? Horrible But True No, geritiemen, iis horrible to think of, but it Is true, In my judg- ment we haye got to show the German nation in the only way they .can be made to realize that war does not pay; that their military machine cannot get the desired results. It is only by de- cisive military results that war can be ended. Let the Germans realize that we can go on longer than they and the change of feeling in Germany of which we hear 0 much will grow dally and will ite if, perhaps bring the results we.all long to see. Would Mean Defeat Mr. Bonar Law intimated that should the Marquis of Lansdowne s FORGET PARTY FOR THE PRESENT To the Editor of the Advocate: Sir, I believe Uwas one of the frst some two weeks before the inception of the Win-the-War movement in Red Deer, to appeal to all patriotic oltizens to sink party and combine to elect Dr. Clark as the Win-the-War representative of the Red Deer riding. And with your permission should do, the diMculty which many estim- able people experience tn even temporarily, the political associ- ations of former days and of meeting changed conditions with new combina- tions, : In his speech at the-great nomina- tion convention, Dr. Clark mentioned as af open secret the fact that most sensible men were, pretty tired of the wretched party warfare, and especially in the face of a dangerous outside ene- my. This, believe, is perfectly true: And 1 would submit that the old party names have now Quite lost their mean- ing. The term Tory for instance re - calls the days of the fox-hunting par- son and the three bottle village Squire, as the Dodo, at any rate there is no such character In public ilfe In Britain or Canada, . As for the names Liberal* and Conservative as applied to the two Canadian parties of yesterday, they, it seems to me, are very misleading, The terms themselves have a very well un- derstood signification, but It can not be said of elther party that it was tru- ly Liberal or Conservative whilst the otfi r was not; nor that any clear- ly defined principle Ajstinguished the two parties, They were merely two opposing gangs, with two different leaders and jwo antagoniatic ma- chines designed for a struggle for the apolls of the public purse in short, for graft It is my opinion that amor the better clements of both the late political parties tn Canada real Liberal and Conservative principles we pretty evenly distributed. -There is a great deal: of Conservatism in nearly every strong Liberal, and a xodd portion of Liberaliam. in most good Conservatives, And it is well that it should be so, for there is much of good in both ideas and the highest political wisdom lies In a sane combi- nation of the two prin iples Some men are constitutionally con- servative, altogether apart from any fortuitous determinating of political Associations, whilst others. by nature Inclined to reach out towards what- ever is new, Change to the one is es- sentially attractive, to the other it is repugnant. The wise citizen is he who knows how to modify his consti- tutional Conservatism with asane Lib- eralism or hisynatural Liberalism with a wise Conservatism. But of those patriotic Liberals who today hesitate to Join with their poll- tical opponents of yesterday in order to elect a strong Union government With th ohe object of enerpyeticany prosecuting the war for civilization aus barbarism, I -woulil aly that th forfeit their claim to be called Liberals, for it is an inveterate; in- grained Conservative which holds them bound in the old ruts. They can not help but recognize that, arrayed against the Union govern- nt are the enemy aliens, the indif- man foreign element, those of doubtful loyalty and the mis- erable shirkers and slackers, And if they areyptin unable to realize the changed conditions dnd to realign themselves accordingly, they are ap- proaching dangerously; near the atti- tude of the old reactionary Torles. It will be noted that I do not appeal to the machine men. They, of course, set their personal interests be- fore their country and will cling to thelr battered old machine in the hope of getting something more out of it yet. They only inspire contempt. And the more ignorant of the Socialists, al- so, seek only selfish ends, being quite incapable of understanding that any petty class advantage they could se- cure for themselves would be Ineyita- bly lost on the day when the German flag replaced the Union Jack. Every intelligent man who deter- minedly casts out prejudice and does hon stly set country before any petty party or personal interest will un- doubtedly support Dr. Clark in this unfortunate election.

A pupils recital ts naturally interesting, at least to the parents and friends of those taking part, but this was a performanee very interesting to any lover of music. It was delight to find so many young people exhibiting, net only musical ability, but evidences of thorough and artistic teaching; and it was a special pleasure to those who have followed their progress year by year to find such marked advancement. The chorus given by the clags was beautifully sung, and formed a pleas- ing diversion. Another interesting feature was the presentation of the diplomas, in which Rey. L. BE, Brough oMciated.

DIDN'T KNOW OF THE ATTACK ROAR OF GUNS DULLED GER- MANS TO CANNONADE SEFORE ADVANCE With the French Armies, Nov, 28th (delayed). Aside from the ground gained and 800 prisoners taken, the French attack in the Verdun sector yesterday was marked by a pecullary ity which so far as I know has not oc- ourred before In. this war The artillery. preparation beran - at 6.30 in the morning and lasted four hours, the attack itself taking place at 10.30. The Germans were completely surprised, The preparation, although violent, had passed practically unper- ceived in the tumult of the cannonade, which has been steady for the last two months, Imagine ferocious bombardment half-kilometers-(2,1-miles)- which- make no impression on the enemy because it ls only Ike that to which he has be- come accustomed to In the region of Hill 844. Dhe effect might vulgarly be compared to firing a pistol tn a boiler factory. Nothing better than this astonishing fact attests the incessant savagery of the battle which has lasted since Aug. 20th on the right bank:of the Meuse. tee Old Tea Looks All Right Old tea and fresh tea, poor tea and good. tea, all look alike.
