ernment since the Dominion plunged into the ureat conflict. The government hps been split wide open on the Issue of conscription. Rritish Canada, generally speaking, supports conscription. French Canada is almost solidly opposed. The biiterrst and most excttin political campaign in Ilominion history is in prospect. Upon tho result depends the continuance in power of the present Conservative government and the enforcement of the com pti so ry military service net. Leading the Liberal opposition is Sir Wilfrid Laurier, ex-premier and the idol of the French-Canadians of the province of Quebec. A brilliant speaker and a masterly politician Laurier is bending every effort to bring to his standard all the elements in Canada disaffected with the Borden regime. Already however he has had to face the refusal of twenty-two French-Canadian Liberals in the House from Ontario and the western provinces to follow him in his anti-conscription battle. What strength these conscriptionist Liberal party "belters" can takv- with them to the polls has become one of the biK question marks of the campaign. In its answer may lie the final decision. On 'he part of the Conservatives they have to face minor but very signlnVart desertions from French-Canadian Conservatives. Canada has 405,000 enlisted men. Her overseas force is made up of five divisions. Four of these are in Franee arid one is held in England a.s a reserve division. Since the desperate, bloody day at Vimy Ridge, heavy drafts have been made cn this reserve. Canada must provide more men or soon Dominion troops will be left, without reserves. This would mean the elimination cf Canada as a fighting factor at the front. Canada must raise lno.OOo more men an'1 do It o,uick. Voluntary recruiting is a thing of the past. Canada has no great wealth of man-power. Eight million people is her top. Already the 400. 000 mn who so freely gave themselves to service have seriously tightened the labor market in places. Farmers are in straits for help. In many cities clerks and municipal employes are given half holidays from their regular employment in order that they may go into the fields. This shortage is emphasized by the anti-conscript ionists. Conservatives declare there are hundreds of "slackers" in th cities who could be spared and assert that these are the men they want to get to under the law. Intricate n js this problem alone, it is intermixed with the racial question, an alien enemy tangle, a tremendously difficult financial situation, invoving the nationalization of 7,000 miles of rn! road and millions of dollars in advances to others, and a line of hoary but still virulent political animosities, which stirred together offer the Cann-ian voter a political salad unlike anything previous in his entire political experience. The next few weeks wll see stirrinj times across the border. (Ey United Fress.) OTTAWA. CANADA. Aug. 24. The French-Canadian is an unsolved riddle of the Dominion. To the British colonist the attitude of the Frcnch--Canadian during the war has been inexplicable. The mass of the Frnch-Canadians have been opposed to conscription. So bitterly are they opposed to it that threats of f. rmed and organized resistance have been freely made by street speakers in Mor treal. The Nationalist element in FrenchCanadian politics, led by Henri Bouras?a, the brilliant publicist and editor of Le Devoir, a Montreal 'dily. not only opposes conscription but frankly advocate a policy of withdrawal of Canada from continued active rfcrticipation in the war as a fighting fore. They dream of a day when & Fter.ih republic will arise on the shores of Lawrence, within whose border. the civilization and idals of the Fret Ch-Canadian may be logically developed

The French-Canad."1 h3 had no active connection with lYance fpr over 150 years, lie points ou that his association with the motheP country then is about as close as the Connection between Kew England and Grat Britain. When France broke with tl Vatican the Republic shattered its "ve connection

with the strongly catholic inhabitants of Quebec. Llkewls he has nj blood relationship with tireat Britain. The call of motherland. that brought thous

ands of boya with Prittsh blood in thoir

veins, thrilling ;o the recruiting stands, left him cold. He i.n promarily a Canadian of- Quehec. His interests are first with his province. Living intensively he does not recognize or acknowledge the proM'iety of any demand upon him for personal participation jn the conflict. "Canada." sis Id Bourassi "has Already made a miliirfry display in men and money proportionately superior to that of any nation engaged in the war." "An increase in our war expcise will sp'il national bankruptcy and threaten the economic life of the nalioji and eventually i:-s Independence. Conscription means strife and disunion in Canada. It will hurt the cause of the allies to a greater extent than it wlU help. If the United States does as much as Canada in proportion to our wealth and population, they will have to raise an army of 6,000,000 men." The French-Canadian points out that the British colonist is not enlisting as a "Hiiadian but as a Britisher. Tne French-Canadian regards himself as the

only simon pure Canadian. "Conscription." declared Bourassa recently, "may mean a second Hexico north of the 45th and 49 parallels." To define Canadian political designations In American terms the Liberal would be a Democrat in the United Stjtes. The Conservative would be a Republican. Party organizations are more rigid in Canada than they are now in the Unite, States, bu. in both the Liberal and Conservative parties there is the natural grouping of progressive and reactionary elements. Both party .organizations have been hard hit in the tight over the conscription issue which will culminate in the

general election next fall. The antioo! script ionist Liberal party (the

outs ) under Laurier; leadership are going into ihe fight with the solid support of the province of Qviebec. Quebec returns sixtv-five seats to the House of Commons. Conservatives concede that Laurier will control at least sixty of them. Quebec Is the "solid south"

j of Canada. j There are 500.000 Germans and Aus-

trians in Canada, chiefly locflted in western provinces. Public opinion is that this vote will be almost solidlyLiberal. Along with this vote there will be what Conservatives call the "slacker vote" or the support of men who have not enlisted. This will he Important without question. Laurier too. has a certain advantage In the fact thae over "OO.ooo of (he most progressive and aggressive of Canada's men are in war duty in Europe. Their strenh would be strongly pro-conscription. While Canadian soldiers con vote, jrevious efforts along thatMine have shown the diffculties of conducting an election along the fighting front are tremendous. But 20 per cent of thfe soldier vote of British Columbia was cast and counted in a recent provincial election. It is upon these forces, the FrenchCanadian vote, the alien, the "slacker" and the "dyed in the wool" Liberal party man. that Sir Wilfrid bases his hopes of success. On the Conservative side it is freely

admitted that the oirtloolc for success is not the brightest. Yet Borden has many sources of strength. He has behind him a far more united parly than Laurier. He has the support of the British Liberal party. Early in the fmpB!gn a proposal for a coalition government, was proposed to Laurier but refused by hlTn. Now there is very string talk of a Unionist government made up of Conservatoives and "Win the War" Liberals. This is the line up in Canada.
