They will stand by their poli which has beer approved by the le: naval experts. of the Empire, of buil to and trqm Canada and the lines of travel across the Atlantic to and from British ports. The former Laurier policy was not only Canadian, but Imperial in the highest sense of the word. Not only would it do valuable and efficient - service to Canada, but would be of inestimable value to the Empire in time of stress. Liberals all over Canada will be prepared to fight for the poliey of the former Liberal Government and they believe that the rank and file of the citizenship of this country, after the glam- our of the cash gift proposed by Borden passes off, will approve heartily of the Liberal policy, which is not only national, but Imperial in its scope.

But there is still a large work for the Mounted Police in this country and it is therefore necessary to keep the organization and keep it up to the best possible standard.
