The question went to Canada, but not to her parliament. It went to ALL the people of the dominion. It was a national referendum. The issue was discussed at every crossroads, at every fireside. Ail the people were legislators. Rich and r, high and low, proud and humble, stood absolutely equal. hh citizen was as free to debate the issue and prononnce his verdict as a senator or a representative or a president in the United States.

She took from the seat of power the champion of reciprocity, Laurier, and raised in his place the opponent of reciprocity, Borden. A great day for Canada! A great day for the world! Not because it saw the defeat of a particular measure of legisla- tion, but because it asserted the right of the many to rule the destinies of a great’ nation.
