SIR WILFRID LAURIER.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier, whose career as a statesman w.'ould appear bo be Hearing its end, is in many respects one of the most remarkable personages in Imperial politics. By the (power of his oratory and. the .f 'renprth of his individuality he has kept Llie Liberal party in pow«r for
many years. He is now over seventy years of age, and it has bean declared that if he loses the present elections, the defeat will break has heart. Nobody would wiati to see a tragic end to th© political career of a great man; buit students of ■economy will at onoe recognise that .pailbihic opinion cannot for ever be swayed by oratory, and that even successful politicians cannot live upon reputation alone.
