In 1886 the scope of the work was unique, so far as this -country was concerned, for previous volumes of the kind had confined themselves -to the careers of Canadians who have won fame in either a political or military -capacity. The aim of the editors of the first volume of “Representative Canadians” -was to give recognition of the emergence of Canada from a colonial -to something like a national status by recording something of the achievements -of those who had contributed to the intellectual, industrial and commercial -growth of the country, as well as of its political leaders. The purpose remained -the same in the second volume published in 1888, and is once more the impulse -of the present book.</p> - -<p class='pindent'>The vast majority of those whose careers were recorded in 1886 have -passed away; and the same is true of those who figured in the second volume -of the series. Consequently, the earlier issues of “Representative Canadians” -grow every day more precious, for, in many cases, they contain the sole records -of men who initiated great enterprises or furthered important movements -which have left a lasting mark on the history of Canada. We cannot but think -that the reader who, thirty or forty years hence, may chance to scan the pages -of the present volume will gather a very vivid picture of Canada as it was -in one of the crucial periods of the world’s affairs—a picture in which the -characters of those Canadians who lived and “carried on” through the years -of the greatest war in all history may be discerned in the records of their lives. -There is hardly a page in this book into which the war does not enter directly -or indirectly in some form or other, by way of allusions to services rendered, -bereavements endured, or honours gained on the field of battle. In that sense -the 1919 volume must remain unique, and a mine of useful information for -students in future generations.</p> - -<p class='pindent'>Generally speaking, in comparing the biographies of the Canadians of -to-day with those of 1886 and 1888, the reader gains a sense of this country’s -continuous expansion. The present century has witnessed a marvellous -development in the Canadian West, so that in these pages we find numerous -records showing not merely the commercial, but the intellectual, progress of -the Provinces West of the Great Lakes—stories of brilliant careers built up -by men who were mere children in the East when the first volume was published. -The reader will also note in the biographies of business men which abound in -these pages, the ever-increasing scale on which Canadian commerce and enterprise -everywhere is conducted, so that what seemed large in 1886 is relatively -small to-day. Though some of the men whose names figure in the index are -of less importance than others, all play their part in our complex and vigorous -social life, and the story of their progress and fortunes cannot be really tedious -to any sympathetic student of humanity.</p> - -<p class='line' style='margin-top:0.5em;'><span class='sc'>Toronto, 1919.</span></p> - -<hr class='pbk'/> - -<div><h1 class='nobreak'>INDEX</h1></div> - -<table id='tab1' summary='' class='center'> -<colgroup> -<col span='1' style='width: 23em;'/> -<col span='1' style='width: 1em;'/> -<col span='1' style='width: 2em;'/> -<col span='1' style='width: 1em;'/> -</colgroup> -<tr><td class='tab1c1 tdStyle0'>Adamson, Alan Joseph,</td><td class='tab1c2 tdStyle0'></td><td class='tab1c3 tdStyle1'><a href='#adam1'>124</a></td><td class='tab1c4 tdStyle0'></td></tr> -<tr><td class='tab1c1 tdStyle0'>Adamson, John Evans,</td><td class='tab1c2 tdStyle0'></td><td class='tab1c3 tdStyle1'><a href='#adam2'>121</a></td><td class='tab1c4 tdStyle0'></td></tr> -<tr><td class='tab1c1 tdStyle0'>Aikenhead, Thomas E.,</td><td class='tab1c2 tdStyle0'></td><td class='tab1c3 tdStyle1'><a href='#aike'>47</a></td><td class='tab1c4 tdStyle0'></td></tr> -<tr><td class='tab1c1 tdStyle0'>Aikins, Lieut.-Col.

Hon. Sir Robert Laird</span>, -P.C., K.C.M.G., K.C., LL.D.</span>, Premier of -Canada (Ottawa, Ont.), eldest son of Andrew -Borden and Eunice Laird, was born at -Grand Pré, Nova Scotia, on June 26, 1854. -He was educated at Acadia Villa Academy, -Horton, and for a time a Professor in Glenwood -Institute, N.J. His great-great-grandfather -went to King’s County, Nova Scotia, -with early settlers from New England, in -1760, and upon returning to Massachusetts -gave his land in Nova Scotia to his son, the -great-grandfather of the subject of this -sketch. Upon returning to Nova Scotia, Sir -Robert studied law and was called to the -Bar in 1878. He first practised at Kentville, -N.S., and later moved to Halifax, succeeding -the late Sir John Thompson, then Prime -Minister of Canada, in the firm of Thompson, -Graham and Tupper. Before removing to -Ottawa he was head of the law firm of Borden, -Ritchie & Chisholm, of Halifax, and for ten -years was President of the Nova Scotia Barristers’ -Society. He was made a Q.C. in -1900; an Honorary LL.D. of Queen’s University -in 1903; an Honorary LL.D., St. -<a id='francis2'></a>Francis Xavier University in 1905; an -Honorary LL.D. of McGill University in -1913. In 1896 he was elected to the House -of Commons from Halifax in the General -Elections, and re-elected in 1900, but was an -unsuccessful candidate at the General Elections -in 1904. Upon the retirement of -Edward Kidd, M.P., for Carleton, Ont., he -was elected by acclamation in his stead at -the by-election held on February 4, 1905, and -was re-elected by a large majority at the -general elections in 1908, when he was also -elected in Halifax, N.S. He later resigned -his Carleton seat, preferring to represent -Halifax. At the General Elections of 1911, -he was again returned for Halifax, and continued -to represent that constituency up to -the present time (1918). On February 6, -1901, he was chosen leader of the Conservative -Party in the House of Commons, and -upon the resignation of Sir Wilfrid Laurier -and his Cabinet on October 6, 1911, following -the defeat of the Liberal Government on -the question of Reciprocity with the United -States, he was sent for by His Excellency -Earl Grey and was entrusted with the task -of forming a Cabinet. With a very large -majority at his disposal, he found the task -an easy one, and was successful in gathering -around him men who have since carried on -the government of the country in one of the -most critical periods of its existence. At the -time the first Borden government assumed -office the world war was unthought of except -as a vague speculation, which few students -of world finance and world politics believed -would ever become a fact, and the new -Premier did not foresee that before him lay -the most difficult task that had ever confronted -a Canadian Government. In the -summer of 1914 the conflict which ultimately -developed into a war between the Central -Empires and most of the other civilized -powers, came like a bolt from the blue. On -August 4, 1914, there was great curiosity in -the chancelleries of Europe as to whether the -overseas dominions of the British Empire -would stand behind Great Britain. Germany, -on the day she started the war, believed -that they would not, and it was prophesied -in Berlin that Canada would seek -separation from the Empire. Sir Robert -Borden at once gave the answer by placing -the entire resources of the Dominion at the -disposal of the Motherland; and on receiving -an intimation from the late Lord Kitchener, -that men were the first necessity, immediately -called Parliament together to vote -the necessary money. His government commenced -the training and equipment of a first -volunteer expeditionary force of 35,000, with -provision for its further extension at need. -This expeditionary force was partly trained -at Valcartier camp, Quebec, and partly at -Salisbury Plains, England, and first went -into action at the second battle of Ypres in -the spring of 1915. In the words of Viscount -French, at that time Commander-in-Chief of -the British forces in France, it “saved the -situation” and barred the way to the Channel -Ports from the Germans. In 1915 Sir -Robert, who had been honored with the title -of G.C.M.G. shortly before the outbreak of -the conflict, visited Great Britain and France -and, convincing himself that the struggle -would be very long and difficult, pledged -Canada to provide an aggregate of 500,000 -trained men should the need arise. He and -his government also made arrangements -whereby Canadian manufacturers should -engage largely in the production of munitions, -the credits for such contracts being financed -by the Canadian administration. The same -policy was pursued in connection with contracts -for food supplies, with the result that -throughout the war there was a continued -trade expansion and financial opulence that -enabled Canada to make sacrifices that would -otherwise have been impossible to her. -During his visits to the front Sir Robert kept -himself fully in touch with the needs of the -Canadian army, and resolved to make it a -first consideration in all his policies. A trip -to Great Britain and France in the early part -of 1917 convinced him that, in view of the -dark outlook for peace, it would be necessary -for Canada to adopt the policy of conscription, -which had already been reluctantly -adopted in Great Britain by Mr. Asquith, -and had become the policy of the United -States, which had recently entered the war. -It was clear to Sir Robert that this policy -could only be effectively imposed by consent -of both parties in the House of Commons, and -on his return to Canada in May, 1917, he -announced conscription as his policy and an -abandonment of party government. He was -at first stoutly opposed both in the ranks of -his own party and by his political opponents. -Nevertheless, after long and patient negotiations -he was successful in winning practically -the entire body of English-speaking Liberals -to his way of thinking, and conscription carried -in the House of Commons in the latter -part of July, 1917, by the greatest majority -ever given so momentous a measure. He -then proceeded to form a Union Government -almost equally representative of Conservatives -and Liberals. Early in December of -1917 this government, with Sir Robert as -Prime Minister, appealed to the people, and -was supported by almost the entire mass of -English-speaking constituencies, giving him -the largest majority that any political leader -has ever enjoyed in this country. As a result -of the adoption of conscription, Canada was -enabled by the time peace was declared to -fulfil her pledge of sending 500,000 men to -aid in the war against autocracy—a contribution -which has made this country famous -throughout the world. Already, on January -1, 1912, Sir Robert had been sworn in as a -member of the Imperial Privy Council, the -highest office that up to that time had been -held in the Motherland by a Canadian. On -his arrival in London in June, 1918, he was -invited by the Prime Minister, Hon. David -Lloyd-George to become a member of the -Imperial War Cabinet, a post which he held -during the duration of the war. This was -followed in November of 1918 by an invitation -to become one of Great Britain’s Imperial -representatives at the negotiations preliminary -to and coincident with the Peace Conference -to resolve the disasters of the war and -at once proceeded overseas. Sir Robert’s Imperial -services have been such, and his legal -attainments are so well known that at the -time of writing his elevation to the peerage -as a colonial representative on the legal committee -of the Privy Council, which is the -Court of Appeal for the whole Empire, is -being strongly advocated in the Motherland. -In his private relations Sir Robert is greatly -beloved, and though his duties have brought -him in contact with all the leading figures of -Great Britain, France and the United States, -he is a thorough democrat in bearing. His -favorite recreation is golf and he has played -with many world-famous statesmen, though -he does not claim to be a champion. He is -an Anglican in religion and a member of -many clubs on both sides of the Atlantic. In -September of 1889 he married Laura, -daughter of the late T. H. Bond, of Halifax, -and never fails to acknowledge the great aid -and assistance that has been rendered him -by Lady Borden in building up his illustrious -career.

As a law student he entered the -office of the late Hon. R.

In the earlier years of his -professional career he edited and contributed -to several newspapers. In May 13, 1868, he -married Miss Zoe Lafontaine.

In -October, 1878, he resigned with the Mackenzie -Government, and was elected leader -of the Liberal Party in the House of Commons -in 1887. He issued a call for a Dominion -Liberal Convention in 1893, which -was held at Ottawa. Upon the defeat of the -Tupper Government at the general elections, -June 23, 1896, he was called on by Lord -Aberdeen, Governor-General, to form a ministry -on July 8, 1896, on which date Sir -Charles Tupper resigned office; was sworn -in as President of the Privy Council, July 11, -1896, and formed his Ministry, July 13, -1896. He was appointed by a sub-committee -of the Privy Council to arrange for the settlement -of the Manitoba School Question and -an agreement was reached in November of -the same year.

While in England he succeeded -in securing Her Majesty’s Government’s -assent to the denunciation of the commercial -treaties with Germany and Belgium, which -stood in the way of Canada’s new tariff, -extending a preference to the United Kingdom. -On his return to Canada he was -accorded public receptions at Quebec, -Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa, and received -from Toronto and Queen’s Universities the -honorary degrees of LL.D. In November, -1897, he went to Washington in the interest -of better relations between the two countries, -and was a member of the Joint Commission -which met at Quebec, August 23, 1898, to -discuss questions affecting jointly Great -Britain, Canada and the United States. He -welcomed the present King, then Duke of -Cornwall and York, to Canada in September, -1901, and accompanied the Royal Party -through the Dominion; was invited, and attended, -the Coronation of King Edward VII, -in 1902, sailing June 14, arriving in Liverpool -June 21, and in London, June 22. The Coronation, -fixed for June 26, was postponed on -June 24, but took place on August 9. On -June 30 he attended a Colonial Conference at -London, and on July 26 received the freedom -of the City of Edinburgh, and was honored -with the degree of LL.D. by the Edinburgh -University. He was entertained by the City -of Glasgow, July 28, visited the continent, and -sailed for Canada on October 7, arriving at -Quebec, October 17, and at Ottawa, October -18, receiving a great civic welcome at the -City Hall. On New Year’s Day, 1904, he -was presented by His Excellency the Governor-General, -with the Fenian Raid medal -for services as a volunteer in 1866. In -1907 he attended the Imperial Conference -at London, Eng., as a representative of Canada, -and was accorded the freedom of London, -Bristol, Liverpool and other cities; and in -1911 he attended the Imperial Conference in -England and represented Canada at the -coronation of King George and Queen Mary. -Following the defeat of his Party at the polls -on September 21, 1911, on October 6 he -tendered the resignation of himself and -Cabinet to Earl Grey, and advised His Excellency -to call upon Mr. R. L. Borden, to -form a Cabinet. From that date until -his death on Feb. 17, 1919, he continued -to lead the Liberal Party, and in -1917 celebrated his seventy-fifth birthday. -He again led his party in the general election -of December, 1917, but was defeated owing -to the fact that many followers had parted -company with him on the issue of Conscription. -Sir Wilfrid’s end came suddenly as a -result of an effusion of blood to the brain. -He was stricken while preparing to go to -church on Sunday, Feb. 16, and passed away -the following afternoon. The death of no -Canadian had previously evoked such tributes -as were printed and uttered, not only in -Canada, but throughout the British Empire -and the United States. His remains were -accorded the honor of a State funeral in Ottawa -on Saturday, Feb. 22, 1919, which was -the most impressive function of its kind -known on any continent since the death of -Lincoln.</p> - -<hr class='tbk101'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='ames'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Ames, Sir Herbert B.</span>, K.B., LL.D., -M.P.</span> (Montreal, Que.), born June 27, -1863, at Montreal, of which city he has been -a life-long resident.

The -direct descendant of Duncan R., chief of the -clan of Robertson of Strowan, 1347; eldest -son of the late John Robertson, wholesale -dry goods merchant, Toronto, and Margaret -R., daughter of Hector Sinclair, Stornoway, -Island of Lewis, Scotland. He was born in -Toronto, Dec. 28, 1841, and educated at -Upper Canada College; married, 1st, in 1871, -Maria Louisa (d. Aug., 1886), daughter of -Edward Earle Matthew Gillbee, Northamptonshire, -Eng., grandson of the late Rev. Dr. -Edward Gillbee, Vicar of Barby, near Rugby, -descendant of the noted Anthony Gilby, one -of the translators of the first edition of the -Geneva or “Breeches” Bible, 1560; 2ndly, -1888, Jessie Elizabeth, daughter of George B. -Holland, a prominent insurance man of Toronto. -While still at college he occupied his -spare hours in acquiring a knowledge of the -printer’s craft, and was a fairly rapid compositor; -commenced a small office which he -established in his father’s residence, John St., -Toronto, and with a few fonts of type he -issued to the boys at Upper Canada College -a paper under the name of the “College -Times,” which later took the name of the -“Boys’ Times,” a monthly publication that -existed 1857-60. He also published in succession -to the “Boys’ Times,” during a year -at the Model Grammar School, a newsy -paper for boys called “Young Canada.” -Picking up a general knowledge of setting -type and small job work in city offices, his -face was a familiar one in the old “Christian -Guardian” office, where occasionally he used -to work off odd jobs, the composition of -which he did in his own office; in the “Globe” -Office, where in 1859, when opportunity offered, -he sometimes used to feed one of the -Hoe single cylinder presses when printing -the inner pages of the four-page “Globe,” -for the inside was always printed the afternoon -before the morning issue; in the -“Leader,” where he at times worked off on -a small job cylinder Hoe press, the “Grumbler,” -the weekly that he issued in 1860; the -following year he equipped a newspaper and -job office, and issued “Sporting Life,” the -first paper in Canada to be devoted to -athletic sports, and subsequently continued -the publication of the “Grumbler,” a weekly -satirical paper, at one time edited by W. J. -Rattray, W. A. Foster, and the late Chief -Justice Thomas Moss. He worked on the -reportorial and advertising staff of the -“Leader,” when Charles Lindsey and Charles -Belford were editors and Ephraim Roden, -City Editor, continuing at the same time the -management of his printing office. He also -issued for a year, Robertson’s Canadian -Railway Guide, the first of its kind in Canada, -and early in 1865 joined the Toronto “Globe” -staff as city Editor, in May, 1866, becoming -one of the founders of the “Daily Telegraph,” -a journal that had a high reputation among -the newspapers of Canada. Owing to political -complications it ceased publication in 1872. -Prior to this, in December, 1869, Mr. Robertson, -then of the “Daily Telegraph,” made a -trip to the North-West, accompanied by Mr. -Robert Cunningham of the “Globe.” They -travelled by rail from Toronto to the end of -steel at St. Cloud, Minn., and there with a -French half-breed guide and a two-horse -farmer’s sleigh, fully equipped, began a -journey of about 400 miles over the prairie. -Snow storms raged and the thermometer ran -from zero to 20 below. The travellers -camped every night in the woods along the -Red River, and arrived in Fort Garry after -a perilous journey of ten days, to be locked -up by the so-called “President” Riel, in -Fort Garry for a week, and only allowed -out to see their friends in the town, under a -guard. They both secured interesting information, -but were ordered out of the -territory, as Riel thought they were “dangerous -characters,” so they left Fort Garry -for Pembina, U.S., the boundary post, one -day when the thermometer was about 40 -below zero. They declared they would not -do the trip again for the whole North-West. -Mr. Robertson, after the “Daily Telegraph” -ceased publication, proceeded to London, -Eng., where for three years he acted as -resident correspondent and business representative -of the Toronto “Daily Globe.” On -his return to Canada, 1875, he assumed the -business management of the “Nation,” edited -by the late Prof. Goldwin Smith. It is said -that during his managership of the “Nation,” -his friend, Mr. Goldwin Smith asked his -opinion as to the opportunities offered for an -independent daily evening paper in Toronto, -and that this conversation led up to the establishment -of the “Evening Telegram,” which -first saw light in April, 1876. It is said to -be the only daily paper in Canada that has -paid its way from the start. Mr. Robertson -continued to conduct it until his death, -May 31, 1918. “The immediate success of -this paper,” said the “Globe,” in a sketch of -his career published during his lifetime, -“is ample evidence that he has graduated -from a good school of journalism. Neither -accident or luck had aught to do with his -success. He launched out in new and -original lines, and the good fortune that -attended his efforts was the outcome of -his energy, enthusiasm and experience, -reinforced by a persistence and resource -that would admit of no failure; it is these -qualities that he brings to his every undertaking, -and on the “Globe” he left behind him -a reputation that is worthy of his later -achievements.” This was publicly demonstrated -by his Masonic career and his -management of that great charity—the Hospital -for Sick Children. From the first he -has held high rank in the Masonic order. He -entered the Craft in 1867, and was W.M. of -his Mother Lodge, King Solomon’s, in 1880-1, -and of Mimico, No. 359, in 1879-80. After -having served successively as Grand Senior -Warden, as District Grand Master of the -Toronto District in 1886, he became in 1890 -Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Canada, -and was subsequently chosen Grand First -Principal of the Grand Royal Arch Chapter -of Canada, 1894-5, and Provincial Grand -Prior, Ontario Centre, Sovereign Great Priory -of Canadian Knights Templar, 1882; was -Grand Representative of the Grand Lodge of -England in Canada, having been appointed -to succeed Sir John A. Macdonald in that -office on the latter’s death, 1891; indeed, -every honor at the disposal of his fellow-craftsmen -had been accorded him. In September, -1902, in commemoration of the coronation -of His Majesty King Edward, the -Duke of Connaught (q.v.) then and now -Grand Master, was pleased to confer the -honorary rank of Past Grand Warden of -England upon several eminent personages, -including the subject of this sketch. For -many years Mr. Robertson was president of -the Canadian Copyright Association and -rendered important services in that regard, -and also Vice-President and President of -the Canadian Associated Press, and Hon. -President of the Toronto Press Club. He -was present, with his wife, by invitation, -in Westminster Abbey, at the coronation -of King Edward and Queen Alexandra. -As an author of Masonic works, Mr. Robertson -is well known, having written the -“History of the Degree of the Cryptic Rite -in Canada,” etc. (1888); “History of the -Knights Templar of Canada, from the Foundation -of the Order to the Present Time” -(1890); “Talks with Craftsmen” (1893); -“Freemasonry in Canada,” 2 vols., 1,000 -pages each (1899). He was a contributor to -the U.C. College Memorial Volume, 1893, -edited the “Diary of Mrs. John Graves Simcoe, -wife of the First Lieutenant-Governor of -Upper Canada, 1792-6” (1911), as a press -notice said, “The book of the year, a superb -work,” and the author and compiler of “Robertson’s -Landmarks of Toronto” (7 vols.). In -1888 the ambulance system in Toronto was -unsatisfactory, and with a view to making it -efficient, he imported from London, Eng., a -modern ambulance, fully equipped, and presented -it to the city. There are about sixty -ambulances in Canada made from this model. -The presentation marked a new era in this -branch of humane work. He later gave -a collection of 4,000 Canadian historical -pictures to the Toronto Public Library, the -largest collection of its kind in the world, -valued at $150,000. In January, 1917, he -acquired and presented to the Public Library -a magnificent ornithological collection of -birds and game of Canada, done in water-color -by William Pope, an English sportsman -and artist, who resided for forty years at -Port Ryerse, Ont. This collection of water-colors -is pronounced by eminent Canadian -biologists to be equal of and in some respects -superior to, the work of Audubon. Mr. -Robertson later added to this another collection -of Canadian birds, exquisite reproductions -in color of hundreds of birds that are -not in the Pope Collection, so that the entire -collection is unparalleled in Canada. He -founded and gave three magnificent silver -cups, made by eminent British silversmiths, -from special patterns, for the promotion of -cricket, hockey and bowling; but it was as -chairman of the Board of Trustees of the -Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, that he -will be most gratefully remembered. For -thirty-five years he carried the chief burden -of this important charitable institution, -bringing to its needs not only much money -of his own, but aiding it with the full force -of his powers as a financier and organizer. -He took an active part in the management -and visited the Hospital every day. -His gifts to the Hospital amounted to about -half a million dollars during his lifetime, -for he completely equipped the Hospital -buildings on College St. and on Elizabeth -St., and built and founded, in connection -with the Hospital, the Lakeside Home -for Little Children, at Lighthouse Point, -Toronto Island, with an accommodation -for 250 patients and an entire hospital -equipment; here, during the summer months, -the suffering little ones are won back to -health and strength with the aid of the cool -breezes which sweep across Lake Ontario. -Included in his benefactions to the Hospital -he erected, equipped and presented to the -Hospital (as a memorial of his first wife) a -five-storey nurses’ brick residence, containing -125 rooms, which has been declared to be the -most perfect building of its kind ever erected; -in July, 1911, he presented to the Heather -Club an extension to the pavilion for tubercular -children in connection with the Lakeside -Home. He built and established a complete -plant for the pasteurization of milk, on -the Hospital grounds, College St., Toronto, -the only one of its kind in the Dominion. -By his will the whole of his estate will -ultimately go to this philanthropy. He was -an all-round amateur athlete, and has been -sometimes called “The Father of Amateur -Hockey in Ontario”; was President of the -Ontario Hockey Association, 1899-1905. He -sat for East Toronto in 1896-1900 in the -House of Commons as an Independent -Conservative, pledged to oppose any Government -which would attempt to establish -separate schools in Manitoba, to support -the “National Policy,” and to vote for -the general good of the country. According -to Sir Charles Tupper (q.v.) he was in all -respects “a model member,” and a devoted -Imperialist. In religion he was a Presbyterian. -In February, 1917, Mr. Robertson -was offered in the New Year’s honors -a knighthood and a senatorship, both of -which honors he gratefully declined. A -well-known politician said, “It is the first -time in the history of Canada that anyone -declined a knighthood and a senatorship in -the same day.” He was a member of the -National, Victoria and Arts and Letters -Clubs; Constitutional (Conservative) Club, -London, Eng. “A born journalist”—“Canada,” -of London, Eng.; “A truly independent -man”—D. McCarthy, Q.C., M.P.; “Possesses -a heart as big as that of an ox”—Hamilton -“Spectator”; “The good angel of many of -Toronto’s charitable institutions”—Hamilton -“Times”; “No man need desire a more -noble monument than these Hospital buildings, -which would keep Mr. Robertson’s -memory green if all other achievements were -forgotten”—Toronto “Globe”; “He has risen -step by step until he is to-day recognized as -one of the keenest, most practical and successful -publishers of the Dominion.

Subsequently -he studied for the legal profession at -Osgoode Hall, Toronto, and was called to the -Bar of Ontario in 1888. He commenced the -practice of law in Sault Ste.

He was an unsuccessful -candidate in Algoma East in 1894, -but in the Ontario Legislative elections in -1902 he helped to organize a group of newly -defined constituencies in Northern Ontario -for Mr. (afterward Sir) James P. Whitney, -and by his effective methods largely assisted -in placing them in the Conservative column. -When the Whitney Government was formed -in 1905 Mr. Hearst was appointed Government -agent in connection with the guarantee -loan furnished to the Lake Superior -Corporation, under the provisions of -which the Government had a voice in the -management of the corporation until the -loan should be liquidated.

On -the death of Sir James Whitney in 1914, he -was asked to form a Government, all his -former colleagues accepting office under him. -He was sworn in as Prime Minister and President -of the Council on October 2, 1914, this -being practically the last official act of Sir John -Gibson, as Lieutenant-Governor.

On February -13, 1917, he was created a Knight -Commander of the Order of St. Michael and -St. George. The Premiership of Sir William -Hearst has been marked by energetic administration -and progressive legislation. He took -office at a time of peculiar difficulty in Canadian -affairs, when the great war had been -in progress for two months and when it was -becoming evident that it would be necessary -for a vast and united effort if it was to be -successfully prosecuted. Perhaps his most -radical step was his act of 1916, to prohibit -the sale of intoxicating liquors throughout -the province of Ontario. Subsequent orders-in-Council -by the Federal government gave -this act the effect of absolute prohibition. -In 1917 he introduced and carried an act -to confer the Parliamentary franchise on -women. Under his leadership a comprehensive -measure previously enacted providing -for compensation to workmen for injuries -was put into successful operation and extended. -An important measure of his provides -for loans to settlers, and he has also taken -practical steps to deal with the housing -problem. The policy of Sir James Whitney -and Sir Adam Beck of government control -and operation of the water powers of the -province, known as the Hydro-Electric -system has been amplified under Sir William -Hearst.

Mr. Cockshutt took -great interest in the recruiting of the 125th -Battalion at present overseas and has the -honor of being the father of three sons, all of -whom are serving in the army at present -and have all reached the front at least once. -His son, Major Ashton Cockshutt, now of the -125th but formerly of the 10th Battalion, -1st Contingent, was a fully qualified Lieutenant -in the 103rd Calgary Rifles when the war -broke out and immediately enlisted and went -overseas with the first Contingent, training -during the winter at Salisbury Plain, crossing -to France in the early spring, saw heavy -fighting at St. Julien, Festubert, and Givenchy, -was wounded on June 6, 1915, and after -convalescing at various military hospitals was -given furlough back to Canada and after a -long hard struggle regained his health and -immediately re-enlisted with the 125th -Battalion and is now serving at Bramshott -Camp.

Finishing the full -course of study at the College of L’Assomption, -he became a member of the Provincial -Bar, establishing himself as a legal practitioner -in the city of Montreal, where in a few -years he came to be recognized as an astute -advocate as well as a prospective candidate -for political honors. In 1870 his legal fame -was enhanced by the part he took professionally -in the famous Guibord Case, and by his -service before the Privy Council in England -in behalf of the Provincial Government of -Quebec. At length, in 1872, he was elected -member for Montreal East, defeating Sir -George E. Cartier, the French-Canadian -colleague of Sir John A. Macdonald. When -the Liberal Leader, the Hon. Alexander -Mackenzie was Prime Minister, Mr. Jetté -was offered the position of Minister of Justice, -but accepted in preference a place on -the Bench. This he retained for twenty -years up to 1898, when he was appointed -Lieutenant-Governor of his native province. -While still practising his profession in Montreal, -he became Professor of Civil Law in -Laval University and a Dean of its Faculty, -having been honored by the same with the -degree of LL.D., as well as by Bishop’s College -University with a D.C.L. and by Toronto -University with an LL.D. In 1891 he -was appointed Chairman of the Royal Commission -charged with the investigation of -affairs connected with the Baie-des-Chaleurs -Railway, finally refusing to agree, however, -to the decision of his two colleagues.

And at the end of his second -term he was appointed Chief Justice of the -Court of King’s Bench, retiring in 1911. Few -Canadians have had so many honors conferred -upon them as has Sir Louis Jetté.

He began his business -career in 1887 as a clerk in the offices of the -London and Canadian Loan and Agency -Company, Toronto, at that time one of the -best known financial corporations of the -province. With this company he remained -until 1897 when he accepted an offer to go -to Windsor, Ont., and engage in the oil and -natural gas industry. In 1903 he became -President of the Windsor Gas Company and -continued in that office until 1917. At the -present time he has many interests in the -city of his adoption.

From early manhood -Mr. Kennedy had been a Liberal in -politics and in 1917 when Sir Robert Borden -formed a Union Government and decided to -carry out the policy of conscription without -submitting the question to the Canadian -people through the medium of a referendum, -he was one of those Liberals who stood back -of Sir Wilfrid Laurier in opposing such a -course.

In the two months’ campaign -that ensued Mr. Kennedy made many -friends by his sane and reasonable methods -of electioneering and when the ballots were -counted on December 17, 1917, it was found -that he had been elected by a handsome -majority, which was not annulled by the -vote of the soldiers overseas, details of which -were received later. During the parliamentary -session Mr. Kennedy made -his maiden speech as a legislator in the -budget debate, and made a very fine impression -on friends and political opponents -alike by his brilliant handling of financial -questions.

Sir William Thomas</span>, -P.C., M.P.</span>, Finance Minister of Canada, is -a Canadian statesman whose meteoric rise to -fame during less than a decade, has attracted -more than national attention. He was born -at Bronte, Ont., November 13, 1866, the son -of James and Elizabeth (Graham) White. -His father was a farmer and his early education -was obtained at Oakville public school -and Brampton High School. Later he entered -Toronto University and graduated in -1895 with the degree of B.A. and honors in -classics. During his university career he won -two first-class scholarships and a gold medal. -Subsequently he took up a course of law at -Osgoode Hall, Toronto and was called to the -Bar of the province in 1899, but never practised. -During his period as an arts and law -student he supported himself, first as a reporter -on the Toronto “Telegram,” where his -writings showed singular eloquence and ability; -and later, as one of the assessors of the -Civic Assessment Department. The knowledge -of real estate values and of financial -questions which he had gained in the latter -capacity, as well as his general abilities, led -a group of Toronto capitalists to tender him -in 1900, the General Managership of the National -Trust Company, which they had recently -formed. This post he held for nearly -eleven years and during that interval attained -a high status in the financial community. -Though a Liberal in politics, he had never -been known as an active politician. In the -summer of 1911, when Sir Wilfrid Laurier, -then Prime Minister, appealed to the country -to ratify the Knox-Fielding pact calling for -reciprocity in natural products between Canada -and the United States, Mr. W. T. White, -as he was then known, was one of eighteen -prominent Toronto Liberals who issued a -manifesto against the proposals of their -former political chieftain and decided to support -Mr. Robert Borden. He himself took -the platform against the pact as liable to -disturb the equilibrium of trade at a time -when Canada was enjoying unexampled prosperity. -The result of this and other appeals -was that many thousands of voters, previously -Liberal, abandoned the party lines and -defeated the Laurier administration by a -large majority. When called upon to form -a government in the latter part of September, -1911, Mr. Borden felt that it was due to the -large number of Liberals who had supported -him, that they should be represented in the -Cabinet. On consultation with the leaders -of the group, known as “Borden Liberals,” -they were unanimously of the opinion that -Mr. White was the best available choice. -Despite the fact that he was without previous -political experience, the Conservative Leader -decided to offer him the most important portfolio -in the Cabinet, that of the Ministry of -Finance. On Mr. White’s accepting the -office, a seat was found for him in the House -of Commons by the elevation of Mr. George -Taylor, M.P. for Leeds, and formerly Conservative -whip, to the Senate. At a by-election -held on November 4, 1911, Mr. White -was elected to Parliament by a considerable -majority, despite the fact that the election -was marked by severe personal attacks on -him, because of his so-called “desertion” of -the Liberal party. Mr. White answered the -challenge by the statement that he “believed -that there was no healthier sign of the times -than that an honest man should change his -party in the interests of his country.” His -maiden speech in the House of Commons, -which was delivered on Nov. 29, 1911, was -awaited throughout the country with great -interest, and at once stamped him as one of -the coming men in Canadian politics. Since -then his budget speeches have proclaimed -him as a financier of masterly intellect. Had -Mr. White known in 1911 that the task lay -before him of financing Canada’s contribution -to the prosecution of the greatest war -the world has ever known, he would possibly -have declined office. When in 1914, Germany -made war against all Europe, and Canada -decided to support the Motherland, perhaps -the gravest task of all fell on the Minister -of Finance, because up to that time -Canada had been a heavy borrower from -the Motherland, and these sources of supply -would naturally be cut off if the war continued -for a lengthy period. In fact, in 1914, many -eminent financiers believed that the financial -resources of the world would not stand the -strain of a war of more than six months’ -duration. The Canadian Minister of Finance -however laid his plans for a long war; and in -addition to the task of financing Canada’s -magnificent military effort, applied himself to -the problem of keeping up Canada’s trade at -a figure that would enable her to continue -as a belligerent. He had also the task thrust -upon him of acting as banker for Great -Britain, France, Russia and other belligerents, -who made the finance department at -Ottawa the clearing house for their enormous -financial dealings with the merchants and -manufacturers of the United States. During -the first year of the war Great Britain was -able to render financial assistance to Canada -and others of the overseas dominions; and -Mr. White floated some large loans in the -United States. But it was already apparent -that Canada must shortly finance herself. -In 1916 he visited England and fully acquainted -himself with the situation, and in -the same year was created a Knight Commander -of St. Michael and St. George, in -recognition of his war services. Sir Thomas -decided to test Canada’s own resources -and floated a large war loan the -bulk of it being taken by Canadian -capitalists, although a certain number -of small investors were also attracted to it. -Up to 1917, however, there were only about -60,000 holders of Canadian bonds in this -country. In the summer of 1917, when Canada -seemed to face a serious financial crisis, -Sir Thomas decided to try the experiment of -a great popular loan to be known as the Victory -Loan, on the lines of the popular loans -floated during the American Civil War, by -the celebrated financier Jay Cooke. He collected -a superb organization, embracing all -the leading financiers, newspapers and selling -agencies of Canada and asked the people to -lend their government $300,000,000, to be -spent entirely in Canada for war purposes. -The result passed all expectations, for the -loan was over-subscribed by more than one -hundred million dollars, and about 875,000 -became holders of Victory Bonds. Canada -was enabled to do this by the fact that Sir -Thomas and the Borden administration as a -whole had, by adopting the policy of financing -British credits in this country, secured -enormous war orders for agricultural supplies -and munitions for her farmers and manufacturers, -so that the flow of money during the -war reached unexampled heights. The first -Victory Loan of 1917 was fruitful of good -results, because it enabled Canada to continue -this policy on a more extended scale, -so that, though this enormous sum was invested -in bonds, and added to the savings of -the people, a few months later the average -of deposits in the savings banks of the country -was larger than it had been before the -first Victory Loan was floated. In the latter -part of 1917 the health of Sir Thomas broke -down as a result of his stupendous anxieties -and labors, but after a vacation of several -months in California he returned to this country -restored in health. In the autumn of -1918 he decided to float another Victory Loan, -asking, as in 1917, for $300,000,000, but setting -the real objective at $500,000,000. The -result was another enormous over-subscription, -nearly $700,000,000 having been subscribed. -That such a showing should have -been made by a country so limited in population -as Canada, is the best proof of his skill -as administrator of the nation’s finances during -the most trying epoch in the history of -the world. So thoroughly has Sir Thomas -the confidence of his leader, Sir Robert -Borden, that when in November, 1918, he -left Canada for an indefinite absence as a -member of the European Peace Conference, -he appointed the Minister of Finance Acting -Prime Minister, to take charge of the hazardous -task of re-organizing the country on a -peace basis. Sir Thomas is a profound student -and thinker and a public speaker of rare -ability. Among his activities prior to his -removal to Ottawa were those of a member -of the Board of Governors of Toronto University -and Trustee of Toronto General Hospital. -He is a Methodist in religion, and a -member of the Rideau Club, Ottawa, and the -York and Toronto Clubs, Toronto.

He -has been prominent in the public life as well -as the business circles of Quebec, having -been a member of parliament for one of the -electoral divisions of the place and afterwards -Chairman of the Harbor Commission. -It was while he held the latter office that he -took service as one of the organizers of the -Valcartier Military Camp, earning high -praise from the Governor-General and the -Militia Department, and finally receiving his -knighthood at the hands of King George. -As Colonel in Command he raised the 171st -Battalion, which he took over to England in -1916, continuing his services with the army -as one of the officers of a Railway Construction -Battalion in France, after the 171st had -been absorbed in other battalions, in terms -of what is known as the Territorial System. -No citizen of Quebec has earned higher credit -for patriotic effort than Sir William. Setting -aside his many business duties and resigning -a lucrative government position, he ably -fulfilled the duties assigned to him as a -soldier. The responsible positions he has -held as a business man and a public-spirited -citizen have been manifold. Besides being -President of the Price Brothers & Company, -he has been Director and Honorary Chairman -of the Union Bank; a Director of the Quebec -Railway, Light, Heat and Power Company; -Vice-President of the Canadian Lumberman’s -Association; as well as being President -of the Metis Lumber Company, the Jonquiere -Pulp and Paper Company, the Gravel Lumber -Company, and President of the Canadian -Export Co. Nor did his business -engagements hinder him from taking an -active part in civic and charitable enterprises -to which he has given beneficently of -his means. At one time he was a Governor -of the Jeffrey Hale Hospital, President of -the Board of Trade, Director of the Trans-Canadian -Railway project, an energetic supporter -of the movement in favor of the -National Battlefields Park, and President of -the Quebec Turf Club. As far back as 1887, -he took a practical interest in local military -affairs, having been a lieutenant in the -Eighth Royal Rifles, and being raised to his -captaincy before his withdrawal from that -company in 1903. As a prelude to his activity -as a military organizer at the Valcartier -Camp, he raised two companies for service -during the Boer War, and encouraged rifle -practice by presenting the Price Cup for -competition at the targets. As a parliamentarian -he had a term of three years; but his -earlier defeat in the Rimouski constituency -was repeated by Quebec West in 1911. As -has been well said of him, he has proved -himself to be a citizen of whom any community -might well be proud. He was married in -1894, to Miss Amelia Blanche Smith, daughter -of Mr. R. H. Smith, another of Quebec’s most -prominent and worthy lumber merchants. -His family consists of four sons and two -daughters. Sir William has since his early -days been an enthusiast as a “portageur,” -and a keen sportsman. He owns two salmon-breeding -rivers and extensive hunting -grounds.

He is a member -of the Board of Regents of Victoria University, -Toronto; a member of several Orders, -among which is included the Orange Order, -and many National and Philanthropic Societies. -Mr. Kemp was first elected to the -House of Commons at the general elections -in 1900, and again returned in 1904. In 1908 -he was defeated, but was re-elected at the -general elections in 1911 by a very large -majority. Upon the resignation of Sir -Wilfrid Laurier and his Cabinet on October -6, 1911, following the defeat of the Liberal -Party at the polls the previous September, -he joined the Borden Government as Minister -without Portfolio, and was sworn in a -member of the Privy Council for Canada on -October 10, 1911. After the outbreak of the -war he was called upon by his Government -to assume many important positions, among -which was included the Chairmanship of the -War Supplies Purchasing Commission, a position -that required the keenest foresight, -courage and action, and which practically -demanded all his time. It later developed -that the Government made no mistake in -placing him at the head of this Commission, -and great credit is due him for the manner -in which he conducted its affairs. Upon the -resignation of Sir Sam Hughes, Minister of -Militia in the Borden Government, in November, -1916, Mr. Kemp was asked by Sir -Robert Borden to accept the position as -Minister of Militia, and accepted, and on -December 14, 1916, was re-elected by acclamation -by his constituents in East Toronto. -Subsequently he was asked to accept the -post of Overseas Minister, resident in London, -and in this capacity he served throughout -the momentous period of 1918, when he was -directly in touch with Canada’s Army in -France. In social life he has many friends, -and is always ready to receive them in a -manner that draws them closer to him. As a -public man there is a great future before -him, and he has won praise for having accepted -office at the most critical moment in -the history of Canada. When the greatest -war the world has known draws to a close, -and the history of the noble sons who fought -and worked with the Allies in their different -nations is written, the name of Hon. Albert -Edward Kemp will come in for a full share of -credit for the able and systematic methods -adopted in helping the Motherland to continue -to wave the flag that stands for freedom -and justice.

At this -time the firm of James Gibb & Company was -one of the largest of the wholesale grocery -and provision houses in what has always been -known as the Lower Town of Quebec; and -there the Scottish lad laid the foundation of -his business career, which was eventually to -place him among the wealthiest merchants -of Canada. In 1843, Mr. Thomas O. Gibb, -son of Mr. James Gibb, returned to Quebec, -after finishing his school education in Edinburgh; -and in the same year a company was -formed in which Thomas O. Gibb, John Ross, -and James G. Ross were the partners, until -the first mentioned of the three died in 1845. -Eventually, on Mr. James Gibb’s death, the two -Ross brothers took the business name of Ross -& Co., and as such continued in active operation -up to the year 1868. By this time the -firm had amplified its business by other -branches of trading; and in 1868 the older -of the two members of the firm withdrew to -conduct a business of his own, for the most -part confined, as it was, to the grocery and -provision trade. With him was associated -his youngest brother, Frank Ross. At the -time of the Senator’s death, in 1888, the firm -of Ross & Co. had developed into one -of the wealthiest business concerns in the -country, having depots for the distribution of -their wares in nearly all the larger cities of -Canada and the United States. With millions -at his command, the sole partner of the -firm took an active interest in shipbuilding -and railroad construction. Nearly every -branch of industry was enhanced by the -money advances of the multi-millionaire. -The shipping interests, especially, felt the -effects of his business acumen, especially when -he took in charge for sailing purposes the -ships the building of which he had assisted -with advances of money, but which, for -market reasons could not for a time be -sold. The railroads which came in for -assistance included the Quebec and Lake -St. John Railway and the Quebec Central, -both of which may trace their success -as paying concerns to the financial foresight -of Senator James G. Ross, who thus -both directly and indirectly aided the -colonization of the country and its trading -interests by the assistance he extended to -their promoters. Nor was it easy for -one so prominent in the commercial interests -of the ancient capital to refuse to be -nominated as a candidate for parliamentary -honors. On two several occasions he was -called upon to contest the electoral division -of Quebec Centre, once in the Conservative -interest in 1872, against Mr. Cauchon, afterwards -Governor of Manitoba, and a second -time as an Independent, in 1878, against Mr. -Malouin. In both instances he was defeated, -though afterwards he was considered worthy -to succeed the Hon. David Price as Senator, in -1884. He was unmarried; but in the families -of his two brothers, John and Frank, he is -notably represented to-day by Mr. John -Theodore Ross, the only son of the former, -and Frank W. Ross, surviving son of the -latter, both of whom have evidently in them -the desire inherited from their uncle, James -G. Ross, to advance the interests of their -native city. The Hon. Senator Ross was a prominent -citizen other than in business and political -circles. He took an interest in school improvements -and church advancement. He -was for many years President of the Quebec -Bank, a Director of the Quebec High School, -and an elder in Chalmers Church. As may -well be said of his beneficent uncle, James -Gibb, Senator James Gibb Ross was a liberal -benefactor to the institutions of Quebec, both -before his death and after it. He accumulated -his millions in Peter Street, and every -Protestant institution in the city of his -adoption benefited by his wealth in some -way or another.</p> - -<hr class='tbk121'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='goui'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Gouin, The Hon. Sir Jean Lomer</span>, -K.C.M.G., LL.B., LL.D.</span>, Premier of the -Province of Quebec, was born at Brondines, -of the County of Portneuf, on March 19, -1861. He comes from a French-Canadian -stock whose lineage can be traced as far back -as 1662. His father was J. N. Gouin, M.D., who -married Miss Victoire Seraphine Fugère in -1852. In his earlier years, their son Lomer became -a pupil of Sorel College, thereafter entering -as an under-graduate the College of Levis, -and afterwards graduating at Laval University. -His collegiate honors include the degree -of LL.D., received successively from -Laval in 1902, from Bishop’s College University -in 1913, and from Toronto University in -1915. He was called to the Bar in 1884, after -studying law under the late Sir John Abbott -and the Hon. B. Laflamme. He had thus -been a student under the supervision of a -Prime Minister of Canada and of a Minister -of Justice. During his partnership with -Judge Pagnuello and the Hon. Premier -Honore Mercier, whose daughter Eliza he -married in 1888, he came into prominence in -the law courts of Montreal, being finally elected -Batonnier-General in 1910, after having -served a term as Alderman of that city, and -elected a Member of the Local Legislature. -In 1900 he became Commissioner of Public -Works in the Parent Administration for four -years. Resigning his place in the Parent -Cabinet in 1904, he was called to the premiership -the year after, holding the portfolio of -Attorney-General up to the present time. -During the general election of 1916 his administration -of public affairs was upheld by a -majority never before vouchsafed to a Quebec -premier; while the list of honors conferred -upon him since his advent to power is -perhaps one of the longest on record. He -was knighted by the reigning Sovereign of -the Empire at the Quebec Tercentenary -Celebration of 1908, and was made a -K.C.M.G. in the year 1913. Ever animated -with a desire to see his native province an -advancing factor in the general progress of -the Dominion of Canada, as well as of the -British Empire, he has been diligent in promoting -the public works that have to be -fostered within the counties and parishes, -as well as in the cities and larger towns, in -line with the general advancement of the -commonwealth. He has done his best to -improve the educational conditions of the -communities, not forgetting likewise to improve -the highways and the industrial activities -all over the province. His zeal in establishing -and liberally subsidizing Industrial -Schools and Technical Colleges has become a -proverb in all the provinces; while, in view -of his support of a provincial grant -of one million dollars to the Canadian Patriotic -Fund during the time of war, his reputation -as a broad-minded Canadian citizen has -been placed beyond all questioning. Senator -David has pronounced a eulogium on Premier -Gouin that places him in rank <a id='with'></a>with, if not beyond, -those who have preceded him in the Quebec -premiership. Within these war-times he has -advocated a National War Service in the -most fervent terms, illustrating Senator -David’s estimate of his statesmanship as -that of a highly capable servant of the State, -in his impartial judgment, prudence, eloquence, -and administrative acumen. His -share in the Bonne Entente mission to -Ontario in 1917, to plead, with others, -for a closer mutual understanding between -the two leading races in Canada, has given -an éclat to his statesmanship. He would -see Canada a unit while aiding the mother -lands in Europe by force of arms, and -thus uphold the prestige of the British -Empire. And the various offices Sir Lomer -Gouin has held from the day he entered -public life in 1891, indicate the strenuous -part he has played as a public-spirited -Canadian. In 1891, he was President -of the National Club in Montreal, which -was virtually “the Executive of the Liberal -Party” in the Montreal district. That year -he was defeated in his first election contest. -Six years after he was elected representative -for the St. James Electoral Division of Montreal, -and thereafter has been member for -his native County of Portneuf. He has continued -to be a Member of the Council of -Public Instruction since 1898; became President -of the American Fish and Game Protection -Association in 1910; was Chairman -of the Ottawa Inter-provincial Conference in -1906, and afterwards a delegate to a like -Conference in 1910. As from one “learned -in the law,” his edition of the Municipal -Code is a standard work; while no one has -so well at his command the details of parliamentary -law-and-order as he has, as leader -of the House of Assembly. The record of -his regime is concisely given in a neat little -volume published in 1916, under the title of -“Le Gouvernment Gouin et Son Oeuvre.” -Another volume referring to the federal subsidies -in favor of the provinces was published -in 1903, giving the amplified record of an -address delivered by Sir Lomer under the -heading of “The Actual Question.” These -volumes, together with the reports of his -speeches from time to time, indicate how Sir -Lomer Gouin has ever had in mind the -public interest—seeing to the improving of -the conditions in his native province, even -to the widening out of its area as in the case -of the annexation of the District of Ungava, -building government works, and highways, -and bridges, and never forgetting to urge it -to keep pace with its sister provinces in the -federacy which includes them all within the -Dominion of Canada. In seeing to the advancement -of the province he has in charge -as premier, he has made fame for himself as -a loyal statesman and dignified scholar, duly -honored by the King and his country’s seats -of learning. He was married to Miss Alice -Amos, his second wife, in 1911.

From that institution -he graduated in 1890. After serving as a -Lieutenant in the Hazara Expedition, wherein -his bravery was mentioned in dispatches -and by the award of a medal and clasp, -his advancement has proceeded steadily -with his experience in active service. He -took part with the International Forces in -the occupation of the Island of Crete, and -was there raised to the rank of Major. During -the South African War, he joined the -Canadian Contingent, and won his D.S.O. -with other honors, during the several engagements -of the campaign. In command of a -regiment of mounted infantry he shared in -conflict after conflict with the Boers, taking -part in the relief of Kimberley, and in the -engagements of Paardeberg, Poplar Grove, -Prefontaine, Johannesburg, Pretoria and -Diamond Hill, and many others. After -serving in Nigeria, he was given the rank of -Lieut.-Colonel, his name from time to time -occurring in the dispatches to the War Office. -As an interruption to his service in Nigeria, he -was called to China during the Boxer uprising, -and was present at the relief of Pekin by the -International Forces.

Later -on he was gazetted as Inspector-General of -the West African Field Force, with the rank -of Brigadier-General, a position he was holding -when Germany declared war in 1914. -Since then he has gained further distinction -and promotion. With a combined force of -French and English troops numbering nearly -ten thousand, he shared in the conquest of -the German Colony of the Cameroons, a territory -covering an area in all of 300,000 -square miles. On New Year’s Day, 1916, -the order of C.M.G. was bestowed upon him -by King George, and eventually, at the close -of the Cameroon Expedition, he received -the honor of K.C.B., as well as the Legion -of Honor from the President of the -French Republic, being at the same time -gazetted as a Major-General of the British -Army.

Four years afterwards he took the -degree of Bachelor of Applied Science in -Laval University, where for a period he was -Titular Professor of Analytical Chemistry. -For a time he held the position of assistant -engineer on the construction staff of the -Quebec and Lake St. John Railway, previous -to his being taken in as a partner in his -father’s wholesale dry goods establishment. -Aside from his business pursuits, he identified -himself with civic affairs, and on being elected -alderman, he was chosen as Mayor in 1906, -and at the close of his term was unanimously -re-elected for a second term of two years. It -was while he was Mayor that he became -Chairman of the National Battlefields Commission, -in 1908. During that year there -occurred the Tercentennial Celebration of the -founding of Quebec.

The Transactions -of the Royal Society and of the Literary -and Historical Society bear testimony -to his industry in preparing historical -and antiquarian matter for publication, -which otherwise might have been lost. -For instance, he successfully located the site -of the fountain from which the founder of -the colony, Samuel de Champlain, had water -drawn to supply his habitation, as well as -the site of the house in which General Montcalm -lived during his sojourn in Quebec, and -the house in which he died; the site of the -place of abode of Abraham Martin, whose -name is perpetuated in the name of the historic -battlefield; the site of Dumont’s Mill, -near the baylet curvature of the St. Lawrence -known as Wolfe’s Cove; the location of -Claire Fontaine, that gave its name to the -street which, as an elevated pathway on the -brow of Perrault’s Hill, saw the marshalling -of Montcalm’s troops in three divisions; besides -the locations of many other historical -landmarks in the Ancient Capital.

The patronymic -Cole is of very ancient Saxon -origin: It appears in the “Domesday Book.” -The public records show that in the year -1640, Sir John Cole, of Shenley, in Hertfordshire, -England, was a landed proprietor. His -son, Adam, married and had issue a son, -Cornelius. This Cornelius Cole emigrated -to America in the year 1708; in 1711 he became -a justice of Albany County comprised -within the limits of what was called “Livingston -Manor.” His land was next to that of -W. T. Livingston, and extended from the -Manor House road to Jansens’s Kill, or -creek, and was one of the finest farms in the -Manor. He had three sons, named Nicholas, -John and Adam. On the breaking out of -the rebellion, Cornelius Cole and his sons, -John and Adam, espoused the cause of England, -and the sons joined the Royalist forces. -As the war proceeded the feeling ran so high -against the “Tories,” as the Royalists were -called, and Cornelius Cole, although an old -man, was seized and imprisoned, where he -died a victim of fidelity to Motherland. His -property was confiscated, and his sons forced -to seek a home in the wilds of Canada. In -1773 John and Adam Cole with his wife and -her two brothers, Jonathan, Jr., and Abel -Fulford, left with other United Empire Loyalists -for Canada, and passing up the St. -Lawrence, they landed and settled in the -County of Leeds, in that part now called the -Township of Elizabethtown, at a point on -the River St. Lawrence about five miles west -of the present town of Brockville, which -place is still called “Cole’s Ferry.” Here -Adam Cole settled, being, as he was frequently -heard to say, the first person to begin a settlement -in the Township of Elizabethtown. -Some years after the close of the war, Peter, -a son of John Cole, returned to his grandfather’s -old home in Ulster County, to ascertain -whether he could recover some of the -family estate, which had been confiscated, -but failed, as the authorities had granted the -property to other persons. Adam Cole’s wife -was Thankful Fulford, also descended from -Loyalist stock. Her father, Jonathan Fulford, -sen., with the rest of his family came in -1784, and settled in the same neighborhood, -and left numerous descendants. Adam Cole’s -family, in 1812, consisted of nine sons and -seven daughters, besides four who died in -infancy. Five of the sons served in the -War of 1812, the eldest, Peter, having -assisted in the capture of Ogdensburg, -and subsequently held the rank of captain. -The house of Adam Cole was the general -headquarters of the military, when they -were in that section of country, or when -moving between Montreal and Kingston. It -is related of Peter Cole, the eldest son, that -in the year 1810, the mail carrier was taken -sick at his father’s house, and Peter took the -mail to Kingston, where he received that -from Toronto and carried it back to Montreal. -At Montreal he took charge of the mail for -the west, which had been accumulating for a -month and weighed upwards of sixty pounds, -and carried it to Kingston. He accomplished -the whole trip, going and coming, of 430 miles -on foot, in fourteen days, and this was in -March, when the trail most of the way -was through the forest and very difficult. He -received for this service, from the Government -the sum of fifteen dollars. Abel Cole, -who was the youngest son of Adam Cole, died -December 9, 1893, aged 88 years. His -wife, Catherine Seaman, a grand-daughter -of Caleb Seaman, died Nov. 2, 1893, aged -83 years, being one of the sons of Caleb -Seaman who was with Lord Cornwallis at -York Town. Wilmot Howard Cole, second -son of Abel Cole, was educated at Brockville. -He commenced mercantile business in 1855, -and continued in the same until 1882. The -old spirit of loyalty which he inherited, -prompted him upon the organization of the -Volunteer Militia of Canada in 1855, to become -a member of the old “Brockville Rifle -Company,” commanded by Major Smythe -(later of the 100th Regiment, British Army). -The late Col. James Crawford, William Fitzsimmons -(a former postmaster of Brockville), -the late Samuel Ross, William Morris, -Thomas Camm and other business men of -Brockville, shouldered their muskets and -learned the drill at the same time. Wilmot -Howard Cole filled every position in rank -from private to colonel of battalion. In December, -1864, he went with the Brockville -Rifle Company, as lieutenant, to Amherstburg, -in the County of Essex, remaining there -on duty until the following May. In November, -1865, the fear of a Fenian Raid was so -strong in the vicinity of the River St. Lawrence, -that the officers of the Brockville Rifle -Company (who were at the time, the late -Col. Crawford in command, Lieut. Cole, -Lieut. Robert Bowie, and the late Lieut. -Windeat), offered their services without pay, -and to increase their company to 100 men -to do duty for the protection of Brockville -and vicinity, by drilling the men and mounting -a heavy guard every night, with sentries -posted in different parts of the town, the men -only being paid twenty-five cents per day. -The offer was accepted by the government -and that duty performed until the ensuing -March, when a large portion of the volunteer -force were called out, and a provisional battalion -formed at Brockville, under command -of Col. Crawford, Lieut. Cole assuming command -of the Brockville Rifle Company, with -which he remained on duty until the next -November, part of the time at Brockville -and part at Cornwall. Again in 1870, as -major of the 41st battalion, he was on duty -at Cornwall during the Fenian excitement. -On June 28, 1871, he was appointed to -the command of the 41st battalion; on -June 28, 1898, he resigned, having held -the command for 27 years, and was a member -of the active force for 43 years. In 1913 -the Militia Department honored him with -the full rank of Colonel. Col. Cole occupied -various positions of trust and importance -in the gift of his fellow-citizens. He was -a member of the Town Council of Brockville -for fourteen years; a director for many -years, and president of the Johnstown -Mutual Fire Insurance Company; a member -of the Independent Order of Oddfellows -for many years, filling various offices in the -local lodge and also in the Grand lodge and -Grand Encampment. He was chosen by his -brethren to fill the position of Grand Master -the year the Sovereign Grand Lodge met in -Toronto, in September, 1880, who were entertained -by their Ontario brethren. He -always took an active part in everything that -would advance the interests of his native -town. In connection with the late Allan -Turner, he worked for many years to obtain -a system of waterworks for Brockville, and -in 1881 they organized a company, consisting -of Allan Turner, John McMullen, Thomas -Gilmour, George A. Dana, and Wilmot H. -Cole, to construct waterworks; and as a -result of the efforts of these gentlemen, -Brockville has now a most excellent system -of water supply for all purposes. Colonel -Cole was elected a member of the Legislature -of the Province of Ontario for the Brockville -riding, in the Liberal interest, at the -general elections in 1875, and was a warm -supporter of the Mowat Government. He -received the appointment of Registrar for the -County of Leeds in February, 1882. He was -president of the Brockville Loan and Savings -Company. Col. Cole was a member of the -Methodist Church, and for over fifty years -a trustee of the Wall Street Church in Brockville, -and was looked upon by his fellow -church members as ready to assist in carrying -forward all enterprises for the benefit of -the church. Col. Cole married Jane Adelaide, -youngest daughter of the late Abram -Philips, of New York. Their family consisted -of four children, two sons and two -daughters. The sons, following the traditions -of the family, entered the volunteer -force very early. The elder, Eugene Maurice -Cole, was bugler in the Brockville Rifle Company -in 1866, and did duty with that company -whenever on service; he subsequently -became lieutenant, after which he resigned, -having removed from Brockville. The -youngest son, Capt. George Marshall Cole, -was captain of No. 4 company, 41st battalion. -The latest enterprise which Col. Cole had -been connected with and will eventually benefit -his native town more than all the others, -was the Brockville, Westport and Sault Ste. -Marie Railway. The idea of a railway from -Brockville to Westport had been entertained, -and a charter was procured, but nothing -further was done, and after a time the charter -expired. Subsequently, Eugene M. Cole, -who was in business in New York City, and -enjoyed commercial relations with gentlemen -interested in building railways and other -public works, conceived the idea that a line -of railway from Brockville to Sault Ste. -Marie would prove an advantageous route -in many ways, and at the same time benefit -his native town. After much labor in gathering -statistical information, he laid the -whole matter before his father, who had it -brought before the leading men of the County -of Leeds, and the proposition made that if -the municipalities would bear the expense of -preliminary survey and obtain the charter, -and grant aid by way of bonus to the extent -of $125,000, Eugene M. Cole would work up -the scheme and obtain the capital and contractors -to build at least the first section of -the road to Westport. This was agreed to, -the last bonus by-law being passed on -July 15, 1885, and work on the construction -of the railway commenced on January -13, 1886. Although ably assisted by -many persons in the County of Leeds in connection -with the enterprise, the credit of the -inception of the scheme, and the labor in -working it up materially and financially, belong -to Eugene M. Cole. Colonel Cole died -December 13, 1915, in his eighty-second -year, being pre-deceased by his wife by about -two months.</p> - -<hr class='tbk130'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='scot2'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Scott, James Guthrie</span></span>, the prominent -railway manager of Quebec City, was born -in that city on February 13, 1847, the son of -Hugh Erskine Scott. His mother’s maiden -name was Margaret Chillas. The family of -the Scotts has filled an important place in the -community since the days of Mr. Scott’s -grandfather, who came from Scotland. Mr. -Henry S. Scott, hardware merchant, was his -uncle, and Mr. William C. Scott and Mr. -Charles Scott, his brothers, all of whom took -an active interest in the progress of the city, -as has their distinguished relative. The -latter received his early education at the -Quebec High School. In his seventeenth -year he had his first start in business in -the offices of the Montmorency Lumber -Mills, where he eventually became head of -one of the departments. In 1879, he entered -the service of the Quebec and Lake -St. John Railway, becoming, in time, its -general manager and assuming the onerous -task of having that line completed as far -as Chicoutimi and extended, under the -name of the Great Northern, to Hawkesbury, -Ont., across the Ottawa, a distance in -all of five hundred miles. But for Mr. -Scott’s supervisory tact and engineering -skill, Quebec would hardly have become -the important railway terminal that it -now is, not only of the Canadian Northern -System, but of the National Transcontinental. -During the earlier operations of the -Quebec and Lake St. John Railway, Mr. -Scott and his Board of Directors organized -a system of assisted colonization that peopled -the parishes all along their line, as many as -from ten to twelve thousand families being -induced to take up homesteads in the districts -opened up for settlement. For twenty-five -years Mr. Scott was <span class='it'>facile princeps</span> in -these beneficent operations; and it was only -when the Canadian Northern Railway Company -took over the properties supervised by -him in 1908, that he decided to retire from -office to take up other work involving -the commercial advancement of his native -city. In 1916 he was elected President of -the Quebec Board of Trade, after many years -of active service as one of its members, and -is also President of the British Columbia -Skeena Coal Company. For many years he -has been a member of the Quebec Geographical -Society and other associations; and his -contemporaries can look back with satisfaction -at the civic progress he awakened as a -railway projector and business man, and the -manufacturing centres he succeeded in locating -from the time he undertook to complete -the Lake St. John Railway. In June, 1908, -upon his retirement from the management -of the railway, he was given a banquet by the -citizens of Quebec at the Chateau Frontenac, -in recognition of the enterprising and successful -work he had done while completing -extensions north and west from the city, -and at the same time was presented with -testimonials of value. And in addition -to the story of his life as a railway manager -and projector, Mr. Scott has to his credit -twelve years’ service in the Militia, having -been called out to frustrate the advance -of the enemy in certain border raids near -Windsor, Ontario, in 1865, as well as to -protect Canada from the Fenian Raids, -during the four years succeeding that date. -In 1873 he married Miss Sophy Mary Jackson; -and in 1901 was married, for a second -time, to Miss Cordelia Mary Jackson, daughter -of Dr. Alfred Jackson, Dean of the Faculty -of Medicine, Laval University.

At the time of his graduation, the -Civil War between the Northern and Southern -States of the American Republic was -nearing its climax, and in the excitement of -events an opportunity offered itself to the -young student to mature his skill in surgery -and the healing art on the battlefield. He -was given employment in the army in North -Virginia, which was then under the command -of General Ulysses Grant. As an assistant -surgeon he remained with that army up to -the time of General Lee’s surrender, his -faithfulness and skill bringing him to the -notice of his medical associates and eventually -to the notice of the General in person. After -the war, Dr. Bender proceeded to New York -to gain further professional experience in the -hospitals, before entering upon the first period -of his residence in Quebec as a medical practitioner. -During that period he came into -touch with several of the rising public men -of the town, who made a kind of literary -rendezvous of his residence, much as years -afterwards the Circle de Dix used to hold -their seances out at Spencer Wood, under the -hospital auspices of Sir Adolphe Chapleau. -The social gatherings at Dr. Bender’s had -no doubt the effect of turning the attention -of the successful physician to literary work, -leading him to publish two volumes, respectfully -titled, “Literary Sheaves,” and “Old -and New Canada.” In 1884 he removed to -Boston, where he practised as a homeopathist, -and won a reputation among the literary men -of that city, as a contributor to the magazines -and reviews. Within the last ten years preceding -his death in 1917, he had his residence -again in Quebec.

In the -Dominion by-election of November 22, 1905, -made necessary by the death of Dr. Johnston, -the sitting member, Mr. Pardee was chosen -by the electors of West Lambton to represent -them in the Dominion House of Commons. -He was re-elected at the general elections of -1908 and 1911. In November, 1909, on the -nomination of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, then Prime -Minister of Canada, he was unanimously -chosen as Chief Government Whip, and still -retains the important position of Chief -Liberal Whip to the present time (1917). In -the Dominion Parliament, as well as throughout -the country, Mr. Pardee’s public work -soon won him a position of usefulness and -responsibility. He is a forceful and effective -public speaker, and few public men are so -universally popular and so highly esteemed. -During his parliamentary career he has presided -over, and served upon, many of the -most important legislative committees of the -House of Commons and Senate. In 1910 he -was chosen by Sir Wilfrid Laurier to accompany -him on his memorable tour through the -Canadian West, making the first visit with -the then Prime Minister to the new Pacific -port of Prince Rupert. When, in 1911, the -Administration of Sir Wilfrid Laurier was -defeated at the polls upon the issue of reciprocal -trade in natural products with the United -States, and the Liberal party passed into -Opposition, Mr. Pardee continued as Chief -Whip and had a large share in the arduous -parliamentary and organization work which -ensued. Following the outbreak of the great -war it was he who defined in Parliament, -amid hearty approval from both sides of the -House, the patriotic obligations which devolved -upon Government and Opposition. -He devoted his time and energy, both in the -House and out of it, to patriotic endeavor, -addressing recruiting rallies and contributing -to the various national efforts of service and -sacrifice. He moved in Parliament for the -appointment of a special committee to consider -national steps to recompense and aid -returning wounded and maimed soldiers and -was named by the House as a member of that -committee. In 1918 he resigned the post of -Liberal Whip and supported Sir Robert -Borden on the question of Conscription, but -declined a portfolio in the Union Government. -In the general elections of that year -he was again re-elected for West Lambton -by a handsome majority. Mr. Pardee is -strongly democratic in spirit, and during -the parliamentary session of 1913-14, made -a vigorous plea to the House against the -indiscriminate bestowal of titles in Canada, -and issued a warning against the danger of -creating a pseudo-aristocracy in this young -Dominion. In religion he is an Anglican -and is a member of St. George’s Church, -Sarnia.</p> - -<hr class='tbk136'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='hind'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Hinds, Leonard D’Arcy Bernard</span></span>, Judgment -Clerk of the Supreme Court of Judicature -for Ontario, born Oct. 19, 1868, at -Barrie, Ontario.

Mr. Bronson is of mixed Scottish -and Welsh descent, and the family, which -is now scattered through most of the Northern -States, at an early period settled in New -England. Members of this enterprising and -clever family were the Hon. Greene C. Bronson, -of the New York bench, and the Rev. -Asa Bronson, who was for many years pastor -of the First Baptist Church, at Fall River, -Massachusetts. The first of the family to -find his way to Canada was the subject of -our sketch, and shortly after he came here -he led off in the lumber business. H. F. -Bronson spent his youthful days at Queensbury, -Warren County, New York, in the -family of the late J. J. Harris, and he concluded -his education at the Poultney Academy, -of Vermont. “Young Bronson,” says -a reliable authority, “became an apt scholar -in agricultural sciences, but soon showed -a preference for woodland foraging, pre-destined, -as he was, to become a great marauder -of pine forests.” In 1840, Mr. -Harris, already alluded to, purchased extensive -pine tracts, erecting mills on one -of the upper Hudson lakes. He formed a -partnership with his young and trusted friend, -Mr. Bronson, “whose assets consisted of a -sound constitution, a resolute will, unbending -integrity, skill with the hand, and a mind -to work.” The partnership continued for -twenty-two years, and during the last ten -years of the association, the greater portion -of the business responsibility fell upon our -subject, owing to the failure of Mr. Harris’ -health. It soon became plain that the pine -was rapidly disappearing from the upper -Hudson; therefore, in 1848, Mr. Bronson -passed over to Canada, proceeding along the -Ottawa Valley till the thunder of the Chaudiere -Falls burst upon his ears. At once he -was satisfied that here was an excellent place -to begin lumber operations; for the timber -seemed inexhaustible, and the water power -magnificent. He returned home, but in 1852 -he persuaded Mr. Harris to accompany him -to the Ottawa Valley. When they reached -again the region of kingly pines and booming -waterfalls, they were everywhere met with -testimony from river experts, saying that the -Ottawa was not suitable for the safe driving -of saw logs, but Mr. Bronson recommended -to his partner the purchase of hydraulic lots -at the Chaudiere Falls, then held by the -Crown. At the sale of the lots, made by Mr. -Horace Merrill, general superintendent of the -Ottawa River works, a purchase was made, -and here, under the personal supervision -of Mr. Bronson, their mills were built -within sound of the thunder of the falls. -The mills having been erected, Mr. Bronson -removed his family to Ottawa, and -there they were established permanently. -The relation of Mr. Bronson to the sawn lumber -trade of the Dominion of Canada will be -better understood when it is learned that his -was the first movement in the Ottawa District -for the manufacture of sawn lumber for -the United States market. The original mill -embodied all the modern improvements of -the times, including iron gates of novel model, -a contrivance planned by Mr. Bronson himself, -and afterwards used in most of the gang -saw mills on the Ottawa River. Several -other gentlemen, stimulated by the enterprise -and success of Mr. Bronson and his -partner, likewise set out for Ottawa; and, -after a time, chiefly owing to the persistency -of Mr. Bronson, a series of costly river improvements -were constructed, which made -the driving of logs upon the Ottawa a matter -of greater convenience than upon many a -smaller stream, which has no large lakes to -act as a reservoir for checking the fury of the -spring freshets. In 1864, Mr. Harris retired -from the business, Mr. Bronson still continuing -the extensive manufacture of sawn lumber, -and owing to his splendid abilities as a -manager, his operations not alone maintained -their ground, but gradually increased. -The present firm at Ottawa is known as The -Bronson Company. Mr. Bronson married, -on November 5, 1840, Editha E. Pierce, of -Bolton, N.Y., and had four children. Gertrude, -the only daughter, is the wife of Levi -Crannell. The sons are Erskine Henry, -Frank P., and Walter G. The family are -members of the Presbyterian Church. Mr. -Bronson, like another great prince of business -men, Sir Hugh Allan, did not care for -political life, and held himself aloof from -parties, but he was connected with several -benevolent institutions and business enterprises. -In 1889, death called this pioneer -Canadian lumberman and high-principled -citizen. His private and social relations had -won for him everywhere good will and highest -regard. Men had learned to esteem the man -because of his tested and sterling worth. In -the commerce of Canada Mr. Bronson’s name -will go down in history as the first lumberman -in the Ottawa Valley to manufacture sawn -lumber for the American market, and as a -pioneer in the development of the resources -of that section of Canada to the point where -its principal city was deemed worthy of being -named as the Capital City of the Dominion. -Business courage and keenness of perception -were required to accomplish these ends, but -in more ways than one Mr. Bronson had -shown himself to be a man of practical vision -and rare foresight.

The family crest bears the -motto “Sapiens et Fidus.” His father -was born in Vermont, U.S., Feb. 12, 1810, -and came to Upper Canada in 1815, locating -in the County of South Leeds. After -attending school at Potsdam, N.Y., he -entered the Medical College at Fairfield, -N.Y., after which he returned to Harlem, -South Leeds, and began the practice of -medicine, which profession he followed -with more than common success, until his -death at Athens, on February 20, 1883. -He was Past Master of Harmony Masonic -Lodge, Leeds, one of the oldest, if not the -oldest, Masonic lodge in Upper Canada.

The early education of the subject -of this sketch was gained from parental -instruction at night around the old home -fireside, and at the Township School. He -attended the Grammar School at Perth for -some months in 1851, and then served some -two years as clerk in the general mercantile -establishment of Henry Laishley, at Elgin, -where he gained the business training and -experience that stood him so well in later life. -In 1851 he served as Lieutenant, under Capt. -Wm. J. Smith, and Col. Young, in the 8th -Battalion of Leeds Militia. Later he took -up the study of dentistry in the office of F. -D. Laughlin, Ottawa. After practising his -profession for some time, he went, in the fall -of 1857, to New York City, but later, yielding -to solicitations of his father, he returned -to his home in Athens, to take up medicine. -He matriculated at Queen’s College, Kingston, -in 1859, and passed the final examination -in March, 1862, receiving the degree of -Doctor of Medicine and Surgery, and his -license to practice in Canada, from the hands -of Governor-General Monk. On the 13th of -April following, Dr. Chamberlain located at -Morrisburg, County of Dundas, on the St. -Lawrence River, and during the succeeding -years built up a large and lucrative practice. -In 1859 he was requested by the government -of Sir Oliver Mowat to take the Inspectorship -of Public Institutions of Ontario. The -history of the doctor during these years is the -history of a busy life. Besides following his -profession, he served as Reeve of his municipality, -member of the Counties’ Council, -and Warden of the United Counties of Stormont, -Dundas and Glengarry, Justice of the -Peace, Health Officer, member of the High -and Public Board of Education, Director of -the Agricultural Association, and Director of -the Parry Sound Lumber Company.

Rose, Superintendent of the -Williamsburg Canals, and with other members -of the company was out night and day -on guard at the locks, and in the village, as -an attack was daily expected to be made by -General O’Neal. On the 1st of July, the -General with 1,600 men appeared on the -bank of the river opposite Morrisburg. The -Government of Sir John A. Macdonald, realizing -the seriousness of the situation, and -desirous of keeping informed of O’Neal’s -movements, appointed a man to keep in -touch with O’Neal’s forces, but this man failing -to accept, Dr. Chamberlain, a strong -personal, but not a political, friend of Sir -John’s, was detailed for this duty. He accepted -the appointment, and taking his -horses and buggy, and accompanied by a -young man named Leslie Weaver, set out to -follow the Fenian force, and to report as -fully as possible their movements and designs. -Crossing the river to Waddington, N.Y., on -Capt. Murphy’s Ferry, on July 9, he found -that the Fenians had moved, and he followed -them to Malone, about 50 miles distant, over-taking -them about dark. Staying over night -and having obtained all information possible, -he left the next morning for Plattsburgh, -which place he made that evening. After a -wearisome and anxious night, he left Plattsburgh -for Whitehall, at the foot of Lake -Champlain, arriving there the next morning, -and at Saratoga in the evening. He continued -the journey to Troy and Albany, and -returned thence to Ogdensburg, Prescott, and -home to Morrisburg. The result of this close -espionage, and prompt reports by the scouts, -and the careful guarding of the river, was -that the invaders were compelled to abandon -their design of crossing the river, and to turn -their faces to the west. The doctor’s services -on this occasion were most effective and -valuable, yet he never applied for nor received -land grant, or medal, nor refund of his expenditure. -In 1879, the doctor, as Warden, -was appointed by the Counties’ Council, then -in session, to go as their representative to the -eastern boundary of the province, to meet -their Excellencies, the Governor-General, the -Marquis of Lorne, and the Princess Louise, -and welcome them to Ontario. Later in the -year he presented to their Excellencies at -Government House, Ottawa, an address on -behalf of the inhabitants of the United Counties -of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry. -The doctor has always been an ardent politician, -an indefatigable worker, and a vigorous -but generous opponent. He was the candidate -of the Reform Party for the Legislative -Assembly for the county in 1879, and was -defeated by 81 votes. In 1882, he was again -the party candidate, this time for the House -of Commons, and again defeated by 79 votes. -Nothing discouraged, he again came before -the Electors, in 1886, for the Assembly, and -was elected by 25 majority. He was defeated -next election by 28 votes, and again -in 1904, was defeated for the Commons. In -conjunction with his brother-in-law, Mr. W. -G. Parish, of Athens, he established in the -seventies, the first three cheese factories in -Eastern Ontario. He carried on an extensive -drug business in Morrisburg, from 1886 -to 1873, when he sold it to Messrs. Carman -and Brown. In 1871, he received the degree -of L.R.C.P.S. from Queen’s College, Kingston, -as well as that of F.B.S. During his -practice in Morrisburg he had as students, -Messrs. Hart, McLean, Howes, Musgrove, -Lane, Shibbley, Beckstead and McKay, all -of whom became successful practitioners. -He was always a strong advocate of temperance, -and a member of the Methodist Church. -He became a member, under dispensation of -the Grand Master, of Rising Sun Masonic -Lodge, Athens, in 1857, and joined Excelsior -Lodge, Morrisburg, No. 142, G.R.C., in 1862, -and is yet an honorary life member, having -filled every office in the gift of the lodge, and -having received various decorations and gold -medals. In 1867 he became a member of -the Grenville Royal Arch Chapter, No. 23, -at Prescott. In 1869-70 he was elected by -the Grand Lodge, District-Deputy Grand -Master for St. Lawrence District. In 1885 -he received the 95 degrees in the Supreme -Rite of Memphis, known as the Sovereign -Sanctuary Degrees. In 1873 the doctor explored -the country east and north of Lake -Superior to the height of land, examining for -timber and minerals. In 1878 he explored -the country along the shores of Georgian Bay, -the “Soo,” and to the head of Lake Nipissing. -In 1883 he visited part of the southern, middle -and western States, including California, -Colorado, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico and -Mexico. In 1889, leaving Montreal, he -travelled through the North-Western Territories, -and Victoria, Vancouver, Puget Sound, -and Washington Territory. From 1889 to -1904, he acted as one of the Provincial Inspectors -of Asylums, Prisons, Gaols and Hospitals, -serving in that capacity until 1904, -when he resigned, owing to ill health. In -1906 he was appointed by the Dominion Government, -under the Public Health Department, -Inspector of all the doctors employed -on Public Works, from the Red River to the -Pacific Ocean. In pursuance of the duties -of this position, he had to travel distances of -from 1,000 to 1,500 miles at a trip, ford rivers, -make his own trail over prairies, sleep in a -tent wherever night overtook him, in that -great lone land. In the winter of 1907, he -sent in his resignation, and in the spring of -1908, inspected and estimated the timber on -the Dokis Indian Reserve, Lake Nipissing. -The pine timber on this Reserve was sold by -the Government at Ottawa in June, and the -doctor bought one of the limits, and in the -fall had buildings, appliances, and materials -complete for lumbering operations. During -the winter he took out, and in the spring sent, -2,300 pieces of board timber, for the English -market, by way of Lake Nipissing to Callender, -thence by rail to Kingston, and rafting -it thence to Quebec. He closed up this -deal, and in 1910 went to California, visiting -by the way, the principal cities in the West. -During the past 30 years, he has bought and -sold large quantities of pine timber in Ontario, -and prospected for and located mines -in the Rainy River and Lake-of-the-Woods -Districts, and explored almost every part of -Northern Ontario mining and timber lands. -Dr. Chamberlain married, in 1862, Annetta, -third daughter of Arza Parish, Esq., merchant, -Athens.

Richard first appears -in the New Haven Colony in 1638, and was a -man of some note in his day. Thomas first -appears in the records in 1646, and settled in -Milford, Connecticut.

Next we find him at Stratford, -Connecticut, where he acquired land in -1660 and was chosen “Town Crier” in the -following years, being allowed fourpence “for -everything he should crye and every time he -cryed.” He signed the Articles of Agreement -for the Wallingford Plantation in 1670, and -was granted a “house lott” there in 1671. -He appears fourth in a list of six persons of -“Hiest Rank,” July 29, 1672, and in 1675 -was one of a committee to establish a Church, -dying between the years 1678 and 1680, the -ancestor of a large number of Beaches, scattered -over United States, Canada and South -America. Mahlon Ford Beach, the subject -of this sketch, was born November 10, 1833, -in Oxford Township, Grenville County, Province -of Ontario, where his father, Mahlon -Beach, son of David Beach, arriving from -New Jersey, was one of the first settlers. -His Mother, Mercy May, born in New York -State, May 12, 1798, was a daughter of -Lyman Clothier, who migrated to the vicinity -and built the first mills in what is now known -as the Village of Kemptville. Married -Louise C. Wickmire, of Augusta Township, -Grenville County, in 1865, and leaves a -family of ten boys, all of whom are living, -born as follows: Charles A., of Cornwall, -1866; Fred.

Barber, of Winnipeg, -in 1912, by whom he is survived. Although -controlling probably a quarter of a million -dollars at his death, Mr. Beach started life -like thousands of other poor boys, with only -his native industry, wit and enterprise to raise -him above his restricted circumstances and -give his talents a larger field of activity. He -was a born captain of industry and remarkable -in many ways, exciting a big influence -not only in his community, but throughout -the county. Possessed of a strong personality, -an untiring energy, quick perception and -bold and fearless in his business enterprises, -he left his stamp on the community in which -he lived and his name will always be connected -with the village and township of Winchester. -This place was hardly a settlement -when Mr. Beach first came there, and when -he erected his first mill it was the beginning -of a new life in the community, as previously -the nearest mill was at Iroquois. He was -educated at the common schools of his native -place and set out to carve his own fortune -early in life. He first worked at the millwright -business, and in 1856 went to the -Township of Winchester, Dundas County, -where he built a small saw mill, later adding -other machinery and buildings, such as -planing mills, sash and door, and flour mills. -During the years 1861-1864 he engaged in -square timber operations, taking the timber -to Quebec. In the spring of 1883 he bought -a water privilege on the St. Lawrence Canal, -at Iroquois, and moved there in June of the -same year, where he commenced a roller flour -mill, which was put in operation in the fall of -1884. At Mr. Beach’s place in Winchester, -where the old business is still continued, he -saw grow up what is now a flourishing village. -Between the years 1861-1878 Mr. Beach was -connected directly and indirectly with the -general store business and has always been -successful in his undertakings. In 1884 his -mills at Winchester were destroyed by fire, -and a number of other valuable buildings, -also a quantity of sawn lumber, flour and -wheat to the amount of about $75,000, were -all swept away without any insurance to -cover the loss. This naturally crippled him -financially, but nothing daunted, he commenced -again, rebuilding the mills in a much -better manner than before and adding a furniture -factory to them, thus showing that the -spirit of the man was bigger than any adversity -and that he did not know the meaning -of failure. He met every obstacle with indomitable -faith in himself as the biggest asset -of human enterprise, which, more than any -other, was a characteristic of Mr. Beach. He -had absolute faith in his own judgment and -with great capacity and resource he soon recovered -his losses. He was President of the -Beach Foundry Co., Ltd., of Ottawa, and -also with his son Charles A., established the -Beach Furniture Factory, at Cornwall. In -1909 he completed a water power development -in Iroquois, one of the latest and most -improved hydro-electric power plants in America. -In order to carry out this undertaking, -he was obliged to resort to the European -markets for the electrical apparatus. The -generators came from Sweden, where they -were designed and made especially for the -conditions met with in development. It -might truly be said that this was the pioneer -plant in Canada for the vertical type, direct -connected to wheel, operating under a low -head of water.

The name -of Massey is known throughout the length -and breadth of Canada, not only on account -of the vastness of the business interests associated -with that name, but because of the -great philanthropies with which it is also -synonymous. As the surviving head of the -family that has built up Canada’s greatest -individual industrial enterprise, the figure of -Mr. Chester Daniel Massey, the subject of -this sketch, is doubly fraught with interest. -He is the son of the late Hart A.

Both the brothers who had -also been identified with the growth and -management of the enterprise, Charles A. -Massey and Walter E. H. Massey, have also -passed away. But Mr. Chester D. Massey -is splendidly carrying out the traditions -of the family. He was born on June 17, -1850, in Haldimand Township, in the -County of Northumberland, Ontario, and -received his education at the Public Schools -of the province. While still a boy he -entered the business establishment of his -father, then centred at Newcastle, Ontario. -Literally speaking, he has grown up with the -business, which in turn has grown up with -the country (coincident with the vast expansion -of agricultural enterprise in Canada). -In 1879 the headquarters of the Massey firm -were removed to Toronto, where Mr. Massey -has resided since the year 1882. In 1884 his -eldest brother, Charles A. Massey, died, and -the duties devolving on him became the -heavier. The period that has elapsed since -then has been one of immense expansion, -which the firm attained by a judicious policy -of amalgamation and by extending its agencies -not only from the Atlantic to the Pacific, -but beyond the seven seas in all the corners -of the earth. As has been intimated, commercial -interests do not by any means -absorb the entire attention of Mr. Massey. -He is largely interested in all religious and -philanthropic movements. He is a member -of the Methodist Church, to which he is -greatly attached, and his voice is at all times -valued in its councils. He is a Governor of -the University of Toronto; a Regent of -Victoria University, and a Trustee of the -Metropolitan Church and the Methodist -Deaconess Home and Training School, all -of Toronto. He is also a Trustee of Massey -Music Hall, one of the finest buildings -that unselfish citizenship ever gave to a -community. As chief executor of his father’s -estate, he necessarily takes a deep interest -in the valuable works of philanthropy which -have been carried out under the provisions -of the will. On March 17, 1886, Mr. Massey -was married at Erie, Pa., to Miss Anna D. -Vincent (deceased, London, England, November -11, 1903), and secondly to Miss -Margaret Phelps, of Gloversville, N.Y., -Jan. 3, 1907; has two sons by first wife, -Charles Vincent and Raymond Hart Massey.</p> - -<hr class='tbk173'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='smit3'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Smith, William</span>, M.P.</span>, for South Ontario -(Columbus, Ont.), was born in the Township -of East Whitby, November 16, 1847, is the -son of William Smith and Elizabeth Laing, -his wife, natives of Morayshire, Scotland. -He was educated at the public school, Columbus, -and Upper Canada College, Toronto. -He was Paymaster of the 34th Battalion for -a number of years.

Mr. -Mackintosh has led an unusually active life, -succeeding in making his way, unaided, to -positions of honor and influence. He was -educated at the Galt Grammar School (Tassie’s), -and Caradoc Academy (Middlesex Co.), -two well-known institutions at that time. -When the Prince of Wales (afterwards King -Edward VII) visited Canada in 1860, an ode -of welcome from the pen of Mr. Mackintosh, -then a youth of seventeen, was presented to -His Royal Highness. Two years later, under -the title of “Fat Contributor,” he wrote for -the London “Free Press,” a series of articles, -characteristically entitled “Hurry-Graphs.” -These attracted wide attention, and the entrance -of the young writer into journalism -was a foregone conclusion. He relinquished -the study of law, and became, first, reporter, -and soon afterwards city editor of the “Free -Press.” Believing that the early history of -pioneer life in Upper Canada should be heard -from the lips of those who had passed through -the ordeal, Mr. Mackintosh organized a Committee, -the result being a Pioneer Banquet, -at which 400 old settlers from local and distant -points were in attendance. Col. J. B. -Askin, one of the early pioneers acted as -chairman, Mr. Mackintosh, as the youngest -Canadian, acting as Secretary. Subsequent -to this, he assisted in promoting the Western -Fair, which to-day has expanded to noticeable -proportions. His journalistic career was -marked by rapid progress. In 1864 he was -city editor of the Hamilton “Times.” A year -later he founded the “Dispatch,” of Strathroy, -which he conducted until 1873. In 1868 he -married Gertrude Cooke, daughter of T. -Cooke, J.P., of Strathroy. In 1871 he founded -the Parkhill “Gazette,” which he controlled -for some time, while still managing the “Dispatch.” -In the same year, he unsuccessfully -contested North Middlesex as Conservative -candidate for the local legislature. In 1871 -he visited Chicago during the fire, and wrote -a description of the terrible event; 60,000 -copies being sold in two weeks. He was also -elected a member of the town council of -Strathroy, in which capacity he exhibited -talents, which afterwards showed to better -advantage in a wider sphere. Believing in -himself, as all men do who come to the front -in human affairs, he proceeded to prepare for -a higher sphere in public life which he was -destined to fill. Deciding that the protection -system which had long been established -in the United States, deserved consideration -in Canada, he accepted the position of managing -editor of the Chicago “Journal of Commerce.” -While resident in the western metropolis, -he studied carefully the protection system, -as well as other issues in the United -States. He also wrote a graphic account of -the United States’ “panic of 1873.” Returning -to Canada, at the request of Sir John A. -Macdonald the day after his government was -defeated in 1873, he declined an editorial position -on the “Mail”; sold out his interest in the -Strathroy “Dispatch,” and went to Ottawa, -being appointed editor of the Ottawa “Citizen,” -the Conservative journal of the capital. -He at once attracted attention, not only because -of the vigorous management and writing of -the “Citizen,” but because of knowledge of -public questions. At the celebration of the -O’Connell Centennial, he wrote a poem -which won the gold and silver medal over -many others submitted. He was an ardent -protectionist long before the Conservative -party accepted that system as a plank in -their platform, and must be counted as one -of the leaders in that economic movement. -In 1877, the late John Riordon, of St. Catharines, -urged Mr. Mackintosh to co-operate -with him in reorganizing the “Mail,” but the -offer was again declined. His active interest -in public affairs, combined with an unusual -share of those qualities which make men -popular with their fellows, caused him to be -nominated for the Mayoralty of Ottawa in -1879, the result of the election being his return -by a large majority. He promoted the -first Dominion Exhibition, which was opened -by the then Governor-General, Lord Lorne—afterwards -Duke of Argyle. In the two -succeeding years he was re-elected, and -though unseated on a technicality after the -third contest, was a fourth time favored with -the support of the people. As Mayor of the -Capital of Canada, he inaugurated many reforms, -which proved of great benefit to the -city. When retiring from the Mayoralty, -the city presented him with an address; also, -citizens generally passed resolutions and presented -an illuminated address. In the General -Election of 1882 he was one of the Conservative -candidates in Ottawa for the House -of Commons, and was elected senior member -by a sweeping majority. During his term in -Parliament, he made several speeches which -were notable for keen common sense. He -spoke but seldom; when he did he always -secured an attentive hearing. He became -President of the Ottawa and Gatineau Valley -Railroad, now a part of the Canadian Pacific, -and was also a Director of the Canada Atlantic -Railroad, now a part of the Grand -Trunk System. Mr. Mackintosh resigned -his seat for Ottawa in July, 1886, but at the -request of friends agreed to hold it until the -dissolution, which he did. The Capital of -Canada is no bed of roses for any active or -generous man, and thus the senior member -found it, hence his positive objection to being -again a candidate at that time. In the General -Election of 1887, Mr. Mackintosh, by -the unanimous wish of the Conservative -party, contested Russell against Mr. W. C. -Edwards, the largest lumber manufacturer, -and most popular Liberal in the County, and -was defeated by a narrow majority, owing -mainly to the feeling against the Government -among the French-Canadians, aroused by the -execution of Riel. He polled 2,146 votes, or -between 400 and 500 more than were ever -given to a Conservative candidate in that -county. The Home Rule and Riel cries concentrated -at least 1,600 votes solidly against -any Conservative nominee, the Constituency -being largely Catholic. It should be said, -however, that Mr. Mackintosh was an ardent -advocate of and believer in Ireland’s right to -control her own local affairs. But he had -voted in favor of Orange incorporation, publicly -declaring that such would, in the end, -ameliorate the bitterness between Protestants -and Catholics. Mr. Edwards upon a protest -was unseated for Russell, and a score of his -supporters reported for corruption. The -Conservative party let the matter drop; another -election took place with the same result, -Mr. Edwards (now Senator) being returned. -In 1888 Mr. Mackintosh declined to accept -nomination for the Mayoralty, and also to be -a candidate for the County of Carleton. In -1890, upon the death of the sitting member, -Mr. Perley, a requisition was presented, -signed by prominent Liberals and Conservatives, -asking Mr. Mackintosh to be a candidate. -There were four candidates in the -field, but he was elected by over 1,000 majority, -and was again returned at the General -Election of 1891. During this time he became -interested in the “Lake Manitoba Railway -and Canal Company,” which subsequently -was merged with the Canadian -Northern Transcontinental Line. His leader, -Sir John A. Macdonald, died in June, 1891, -and until Sir John Thompson became -Premier, Mr. Mackintosh took little interest -in political affairs, disposing of his newspaper -the Ottawa “Citizen.” In October, 1893, he -was appointed Lieutenant-Governor of the -Canadian North-West Territories, then including -the Yukon. Before leaving Ottawa he -was presented with a testimonial and address -by the workingmen of Ottawa, the Conservative -Association, and a dinner tendered by -the members of the Rideau Club, at which -Judges of the Supreme Court, Sir John -Thompson and other Ministers were present. -During his term, he organized a Dominion -Territorial Exhibition in 1895, spoken of as -inaugurating a very beneficial settlement in -the North-West. Prize competition entries -reached nearly 8,000 in the various departments. -It was opened by Lord Aberdeen, -then Governor-General. On this occasion -the city of Regina presented him with an oil -painting of himself and a complimentary -address. In January, 1898, Mr. Mackintosh -resigned his high position, going to British -Columbia, successfully organizing the British -America Mining Corporation, of which he -was Managing Director, until he resigned, -about 1900. In 1902, when King George V -(then Duke of York) visited Canada, Mr. -Mackintosh, upon behalf of the Miners of -British Columbia, presented him with unique -gold specimens extracted from the western -mines. Mr. Mackintosh remained in the -western province for several years, engaging -in literary work. In 1908 he was awarded -the 1st prize for an essay on “British Columbia—Its -Resources.” He was for some time -in Toronto, where (in 1910) he wrote a series -of articles for the “Mail and Empire,” forecasting -Germany as the storm centre of a coming -war. In 1911, when the Reciprocity issue -was before the electors, he wrote a series of -articles against the proposition, visiting nearly -every constituency in Ontario, publishing a -signed telegram in the “Montreal Star,” the -day before the election, forecasting the defeat -of the Laurier Government and allowing -them not more than fourteen seats in Ontario. -When his party returned to power, he accepted -a position as Inspector of Customs, -and has also written many articles on the -European War, which broke out in August, -1914. In May, 1917, a pamphlet written -by Mr. Mackintosh, dealing with the Home -Rule issue and entitled “Are Ireland’s -Problems on the Eve of Solution?” attracted -much attention, being quoted from at the -Irish Conference by several delegates. Mr. -Mackintosh spends much of his time in -British Columbia where he is Chairman of -the Halcyon Springs Company, and is -greatly interested in the development of that -province’s mining resources.</p> - -<hr class='tbk179'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='meek'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Meek, Edward</span></span> (Toronto, Ont.), Barrister, -was born in the village of Port Stanley, -Ontario, on December 27, 1844. His -father, James Meek, came to Canada at the -early age of three years with his parents, in -1818, from Ballymena, North of Ireland. -They settled in the same year in Talbot District, -and took up a tract of land near Port -Stanley, being among the earliest pioneers -of that part of the country. At the time -of Edward’s birth his father was a carpenter -and builder, but afterwards became a partner -in a foundry which was carried on successfully -for a number of years; but a disastrous -fire destroyed the whole of the extensive -establishment, and he returned to his farm, -on which he remained till his death. Edward -received his early education at the Port -Stanley school, and afterwards at the -Grammar School, St. Thomas. After leaving -school, at the age of seventeen, he was -granted a certificate to teach, which occupation -he followed for three years. He -then accepted a position as bookkeeper -in a grain warehouse, at which he continued -for a short time only; but thinking a -short journey among strangers would improve -his prospects, he went to Boston and -engaged with a publishing house of a prominent -firm there. After a short sojourn he -returned to London, Ontario, and there commenced -the study of law. In 1873 he removed -to Toronto, where he continued his -studies and finished his law course in the -office of Harrison, Osler and Moss, three gentlemen -who afterwards became distinguished -judges. He was called to the Bar of Ontario -in the spring of 1874, and he then formed a -partnership with the Hon. John O’Donohoe, -which continued for four years, when it was -dissolved. He then opened an office of his -own until he formed a partnership with -the late William Norris, of Woodstock, which -lasted till Mr. Norris returned to Woodstock. -In 1877 he commenced to take an active -part in the politics of the country, and -especially in the promotion of the National -Policy; in fact, he was one of the originators -of the word, and travelled over Ontario -assisting in the formation of political organizations -to enable the National Policy -party to carry their new platform to a -successful issue. He continued from that -time to take an active part as one of the -political writers and speakers on the platform -until the winter of 1884, when he -and a number of other politicians conceived -the idea of forming a coalition government -for the Province of Ontario, their object being -to do away with partyism in the local legislature. -Others were brought into the scheme -who were impatient of the slow method of -bringing about the change by argument, and -thought that a sufficient number of the members -of the Legislature could be secured by -offers and promises to at once defeat the -Mowat Government, when the coalition could -be immediately formed during the spring session -of 1884. The plans were disapproved -of by the originators of the idea, but the hot -heads could not be kept under control, and -the public know the result of the unfortunate -conspiracy case which sprung from it, involving -those more actively concerned in the long -and tedious investigation and prosecution -before a Royal Commission and in the criminal -courts. The Royal Commission brought -in a divided report, which the House never -acted upon. The verdict of the jury in the -criminal court, in the trial of May, 1885, -acquitted the accused. Since that time Mr. -Meek has devoted himself strictly to the -practice of his profession in Toronto, and the -promotion and formation of joint stock and -other companies. Mr. Meek was joined in -marriage, on June 30, 1873, to Anna -Margaret McBride, daughter of Samuel McBride, -of London, Ontario, by which union -they have issue two sons and one daughter. -Mr. Meek and family are members of the -Church of England. Since the publication -of the preceding matter in the second edition -of “Representative Canadians,” about thirty -years ago, Mr. Meek has continued to practise -law in all its branches in the city of -Toronto, and is considered a well-read lawyer, -a sound legal adviser, and a successful practitioner. -While carrying on his legal practice, -during the past twenty-five years, he -has written many thousands of “Legal -Opinions,” published weekly in the Saturday -edition of the “Mail & Empire” newspaper. -These concise and clearly expressed statements -of the law have been widely read, and -highly appreciated by many thousands of -readers of that journal, and have been copied -in other newspapers. Mr. Meek has also -written and published pamphlets; and -essays on Legal and Constitutional questions -in reviews and magazines which have been -favorably criticized and commented upon—notably -two essays comparing our Canadian -System of Federalism with the American -System of Federalism, entitled, “Some -Observations on the Constitution of the -Dominion of Canada,” published in the -American Law Review of 1895, 1896; -“The Legal and Constitutional Aspects -of the Manitoba School Questions,” published -in the “Canadian Magazine” and in -pamphlet form in 1895; “Political Lessons -from the Time of Cicero,” “Representative -Government and Federalism,” the “Plebiscite”—an -answer to an Essay published by -the late Sir Geo. W. Ross—and other Essays, -all to be found in the “Canadian Magazine” -between 1898 and 1904; “Sunday Laws,” -published in the “Canadian Law Review” in -1904; “The Mistakes made by the Framers -of the Constitution of the United States of -America,” and “Government and Political -and Municipal Corporations,” etc., published -later. In 1913 Mr. Meek published a book -of 600 pages, entitled, “Business and Law,” -which has had a wide circulation. Mr. Meek -was created a Q.C. in 1896, but for political -reasons the patent was never issued. He -was, however, made a K.C. by the Ontario -Government in 1908. He has recently published -a few short poems which have been -much admired. Now 72, he is in robust -health, and his writings are as clear and concise, -and his forensic abilities as convincing -as 30 years ago, with the added copiousness -and accuracy acquired by long years of experience. -His eldest son, Mr. Charles S. -Meek, is managing director of the British -Pacific Engineering & Construction Company, -of Vancouver, where he resides with -his family, consisting of a wife and two -daughters. His second son, Mr. E. J. Meek, -is the chief accountant of the Canadian Bank -of Commerce, and resides in Toronto with -wife and two children—a son and daughter. -Mr. Meek lives at 177 Jamieson Ave., with -his wife and unmarried daughter, Miss -Gertrude Meek.</p> - -<hr class='tbk180'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='harr'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Harris, Reginald V.</span></span> (Halifax, N.S.), Barrister-at-Law, son -of Rev.

Formerly President Mathematical -and Physics Society and University -College Literary and Scientific Society. -Few men in Canada have exhibited more -scholarly attainments than the subject of -this sketch, whose versatility in Science, -Literature, as well as original research has -been remarkable, and of great benefit. -Notwithstanding the high place which Mr. -Clark occupies in the field of letters and the -wide knowledge he has of science and literature, -he is widely known on account of -his great abilities as a lawyer which have -placed him in the front rank of the legal -profession in Canada. Many of his cases -have been of first-class importance and some -of them of great public interest. Among -the first in which he won a signal victory was -that of Dorland and Jones, the famous -Quaker Case from Prince Edward County, -Ontario. The recent decision of the House -of Lords, giving the “Wee Frees” the property -of the Free Church of Scotland recalls -the Quaker Case here. Mr. Clark argued -before the Supreme Court at Ottawa that -the Church had the right to make changes in -its Constitution, even though that Constitution -itself did not specifically authorize -it to do so. The view was adopted by -the United Free Church lawyers in Edinburgh -in the case arising from the union -of the Free and United Presbyterian Churches -of Scotland, and the Court of Session, the -High Court of Justice sustained that view. -The “Wee Free” (as the Free Church minority -was commonly called), appealed to the House -of Lords, and contrary to all expectation, -won, and obtained possession of the vast -property of the Church. The situation was -so tense that a special Act of Parliament was -passed to adjust conditions. In quite a -number of constitutional cases reaching -through the Canadian Courts to the Privy -Council, Mr. Clark has figured, and invariably -with success. The same is true regarding -commercial cases and large mining -cases in which a long and extended experience -has given him such a mastery as few -of his compeers possess. Quite recently -the “Ophir” mining case, which he brought -to a successful conclusion, through a tedious -and tortuous course of litigation, ending -in the Privy Council, has excited the attention -of the legal profession and of the public, -both because it decided the question of the -Indian title so far as Ontario is concerned, -and because a similar situation is becoming -acute in British Columbia. Mr. Clark has -made several notable speeches in England -where he is regarded as an accomplished -jurist, and few men are so well versed in the -political and constitutional history of this -Dominion or more fully seized of its great -resources. The London “Times” and several -other prominent English papers a few years -ago referred in high praise to Mr. Clark’s -speech on “Canada and the Navy” delivered -before a notable gathering, including Lord -Strathcona the late High Commissioner for -Canada. Mr. Clark is one of the foremost -mathematical authorities in Canada and his -work has been commended by so high an -authority as Lord Kelvin, while he is regarded -both in this country and in England -as an authority on Constitutional law. He -has won distinction as an author, and has -written several standard works and papers, -among which may be mentioned “Law of -Mines in Canada,” which was written in -collaboration with the Hon. W. D. McPherson, -Provincial Secretary of Ontario. -“Company Law,” “The Ontario Mining -Law,” “International Arbitration,” “Canada’s -Future and the Empire,” “History -of the Theory of Energy,” and “The Functions -of a great University.” Has lectured -on the “Value of the Judicial Committee of -the Privy Council,” “Canada and the -Navy,” etc. The work on Mining Law -referred to is recognized as an authority on -the subject dealt with, and has been highly -praised by the Harvard Law Review of the -Law Magazine of England as well as by the -Canadian Press. The “Mining Journal” stated -that “the book had the impress of clear and -legal learning,” and the work has also been -described as a monument of research, care -and industry. Recently Mr. Clark has -been elected President of the Royal Canadian -Institute, founded by Sir John Lefroy (whose -grandson, Lieut. Lefroy, gallantly fell on -Vimy Ridge). In referring to the new -President’s appointment “The Mail and -Empire” said: “Mr. Clark well represents -the best that we have in character, intellect, -scholarship and public spirit. A distinguished -graduate of Toronto University, the new -President, far from leaving the avenues of -learning, as some do when they graduate, -has ever increased his stores, and has successfully -striven not only to broaden and deepen -his knowledge, but to devote it to the service -of his fellow-men, as witness Mr. Clark’s -strong and convincing advocacy of the Canadian -Government availing itself of the great -scientific attainments and progressive scholarship -of men like Professors Macallum and -McLennan. For many years one of the -foremost advocates in Canada of that great -constitutional change in Imperial relations -which is to-day being forged on the anvil of -war, Mr. Clark has been a powerful and -sagacious leader in that movement on this -side of the water. In the prosecution of -that enterprise he has deservedly won the -regard and friendship of some of the leading -scholars and statesmen of our Empire.” The -“Globe,” in the course of a favorable review, -said that his Presidential Address on “The -Reign of Law,” “will appeal to thoughtful -readers as a scholarly contribution to a subject -which derives fresh interest from the -war.” Mr. Clark has given considerable study -to the question of our gold supply which has -proved a potent factor in the financing of -the great war, and will be even a more important -factor in the reconstruction period after -the war according to the viewpoint of Mr. -Clark, who takes the position that the -increase in the production of gold be encouraged -in every practical way. Politically, -Mr. Clark has always been a member of the -Liberal Party, and was formerly President -of the Young Men’s Liberal Club of Toronto, -but, in the Federal general elections of 1917 -he supported the Union Government. He -favors Canada remaining an integral portion -of the British Empire, the utmost practicable -extension of the principle of free trade, and -the development of a vigorous Canadian -National Sentiment.

Following in his -father’s footsteps, who owned and successfully -ran a popular hotel in Orangeville, at -an early age he became, and for years remained, -cashier of the well known hostelry—the -Walker House, Toronto. His experiences -in that popular public resort and his -popularity prompted aspirations and ambitions -which caused him to launch out in -enterprises of his own, and he soon became -proprietor of several of the best -hotels in the principal cities and summer -resorts in Canada. In 1902 he was one of -the owners of the New Royal in Hamilton -where business success and increased patronage -prompted the owners to remodel it in -1907. He took management of the Penetanguishene -Hotel at Penetang and made it -one of the attractive features of the place. -He reached out and got management of -the Sans Souci at Moon River, the Belvidere -in Parry Sound, the Iroquois Hotel in Toronto, -the Victoria Hotel at Aylmer, Quebec, -the Grand Union, Ottawa, and, with the -late Daniel O’Connor, built the Temagami -Inn at Temagami, Ontario. In each and -all these ventures success and popularity -followed in his train and created for him -unstinted fame as an enterprising, progressive -and popular hotel proprietor and -manager. And while so actively engaged in -the hotel business Mr. Paisley, being an -enthusiastic lover of the horse, found time -to give to that noble animal the most assiduous -care and attention, and much of -his time for years was devoted to the purchase, -the raising, and the training of some -of the finest saddle, harness and trotting -steeds to be found in any part of Canada. -They established, for their owner, on many -a race track and at many a horse show -enviable records. His Sealskin Joe was one -of those that won distinction on the Winnipeg -racecourse many years ago. Later his saddle -horse, Jardie, was accorded the admiration of -all. Shortly after his arrival in Ottawa, where -he first established himself as proprietor of -the Grand Union Hotel, he became interested -in such affairs—public, charitable, -patriotic and social—as had for their goal -the prosperity of the city and the happiness -and betterment of its people, and his many -years activity in these lines are well marked -in the memory of thousands. Mr. Paisley, -never allowing his enthusiasm for the -horse to die, took a keen interest in, -and became one of the original members of, -the Ottawa Hunt Club; was Treasurer of the -Horse Show while it exhibited here; became -Chairman of the Construction Committee -that built the Connaught Park Jockey Club -Track, and is now a director and one -of the Management Committee of the -Connaught Park Jockey Club. For years -Mr. Paisley has been a Director of -the Central Canada Exhibition Association, -and held the office of Vice-President, -and for a considerable time was Chairman -of the Special Attraction Committee. In -1915, owing to the resignation of Mr. -Edward McMahon, who had held the position -of Manager and Secretary of the Central -Canada Exhibition Association for over -twenty years, and to replace whose efficient -management the Association had to select -a competent and reliable successor, Mr. -James K. Paisley was chosen, with the -result that up to date the fair has been an -increased success financially and in attendance. -In his management of the Exhibition’s -affairs he carries with him a geniality -and a business acumen that attracts, establishes -confidence, and produces good results. -When the Great War broke out, Mr. Paisley’s -son, familiarly known as “Pep” Paisley, who -had graduated from McGill as an architect, -enlisted with A. Battery, R.C.H.A., as a -gunner and was soon, owing to meritorious -conduct at the front, promoted to a Lieutenancy. -His valor and good work at the -firing line received much praise from his superior -officers. Mr. James K. Paisley is the son of -John Paisley and Mrs. M. J. Kenniston of -Orangeville, Ontario. He was born in 1858 and -was educated in Orangeville High School -and Rockwood Academy.

In 1872, in conjunction -with Messrs. Wood & Winterbourne, -of Albany, N.Y., he founded the Ontario -Malleable Iron Co., of which Mr. D. S.

In 1893 he established -Fittings, Ltd., of Oshawa, of which he was also -President at the time of his death. Altogether -his interests furnished steady employment to -about 1,000 citizens of the town, of which he -was recognized as the industrial leader. Mr. -Cowan’s financial interests were even more -widely extended. In 1875 he became Vice-President -of the newly formed Standard Bank -of Canada, and in 1883, on the death of the -President, the well-known capitalist, Hon. T. -N.

Mr. Askwith -was appointed Deputy Magistrate in 1907, -and since 1916 up to the time when he received -his promotion in March, 1918, had to -administer the law alone as during the intervening -time Magistrate O’Keefe was too ill -to attend Court, and no Deputy was appointed. -In addition, as Deputy Magistrate, -Mr. Askwith presided over the Juvenile Court, -and is doing so even now, and it is owing -to his sound judgment and fatherly consideration -for erring youngsters that a vast improvement -has taken place in the conduct of -the Juveniles in the city. In the Police Court -as well as in the Juvenile Court he has been -stern and wise in his decisions. He metes -out law and justice with common sense and -discretion and never allows technicalities or -quibbles to interfere with his disposal of cases, -and he holds the explicit confidence of the -public. Magistrate John E. Askwith was -born of English parents, in 1841, and was -educated in the Little Red School House in -Ottawa. On September 26, 1865, he married -Annie, daughter of the late John Fotheringham, -and has two sons, William R. and -John F., who is a Lieutenant in service in -France; he is 36 years old and in 1915 enlisted -with a company from McGill University -to reinforce the Princess Pats, but was -transferred to a Western Battalion.

Mr. Nickle -takes an active interest in all amateur sports. -He is trustee of Queen’s University, Governor -of Kingston Hospital; elected to the -Kingston School Board in 1895, City Council -in 1896, and again in 1897, for three years. -He was member of the Legislative Assembly -of Ontario for Kingston from 1908 to 1911, -when he resigned seat to contest same constituency -at the general election for the -House of Commons, and was elected as -the Liberal-Conservative candidate, and -re-elected at the general elections in -December, 1917. He is a Presbyterian in -religion. The member for Kingston has -played a very active part in the city of -his birth and has been prominently identified -with the municipal, educational and social -life, and has carved a secure place in the confidence -and respect of his fellow-citizens. -He has greatly distinguished himself in public -life, for which he has displayed much -talent, and his sterling integrity is recognized -by his fellow-members in the House of -Commons. Mr. Nickle is a forceful speaker, -with a convincing style and a pleasing and -magnetic personality. His career in the -House of Commons has been marked by a -spirit of independence and adherence to -conviction. In 1913 he took issue with the -Government on the granting of certain -additional aid to the Canadian Northern -Railway; and maintained that if the people -had to build the railroads they should own -and operate them. His position at that time -has since been justified overwhelmingly by -public sentiment and the general course of -events. In April of 1918 Mr. Nickle once -more achieved great prominence as the -effective voice of the Canadian people in -connection with the titles controversy. -He introduced a motion in the House of -Commons requesting that representations be -made to the Imperial Government that -hereafter no hereditary titles should be -granted in Canada. In a speech replete with -convincing historical detail on the obsolete -nature of hereditary honors he also stated -his conviction that it would be better if no -further titular distinctions of any kind were -granted, except those of an officiary character. -He felt, however, that public sentiment -on the question was not sufficiently ripe to -permit him to jeopardize his resolution on -the subject of hereditary honors, by making -it as wide as his personal views would indicate. -Subsequently Mr. R. L. Richardson, M.P. -for Richmond, Manitoba, moved a resolution -demanding that no titular honors of any -kind be granted thereafter. This was defeated -on the Prime Minister declaring it -to be a want-of-confidence motion. On this -motion Mr. Nickle was placed in the peculiar -position of having to abandon the Government -or his personal convictions, but decided -to stick by conviction. Another -broad principle that was discussed as a result -of Mr. Nickle’s original motion was whether -the Government of Canada should not be -consulted before titular distinctions were -conferred by the Crown on Canadians resident -in this country. The Prime Minister, -Sir Robert Borden, announced that he had -accepted this principle, except in connection -with military honors, so that Mr. Nickle may -be regarded as having materially aided in -checking an abuse which was becoming a -cause of public unrest, by precipitating discussion -of the matter.</p> - -<hr class='tbk284'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='tory'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Tory, John A.</span></span> (Toronto), one of the leading -life insurance men of Canada, was born at -Guysboro’, N.S., November 17, 1869, the -son of Robert K. and Anora (Ferguson) -Tory.

It was only natural -that our subject should at his birth be christened -after the renowned Liberal Leader, who -in 1877 was already in the political limelight. -Four generations of Gariepys were born and -lived on the same homestead at St. Lin, -three miles from the parochial church.

Needless to say, streets were unpaved -and there were not even any sidewalks. -Still the town had a Mock Parliament, and -we find our subject a member of it, with a -portfolio in its government. Mr. W. Gariepy -was elected one of the secretaries of the -Liberal Club and also became, in 1894, at its -foundation, secretary to the Société de St. -Jean Baptiste of Edmonton.

In December, 1906, he -was elected an alderman of the city of Edmonton, -and although running for the first time -in the city at large, as there are no wards, he -came second on the list, the first one beating -him only by one vote. Two years later Mr. -W. Gariepy was re-elected, this time at -the head of the list, having some 300 more -votes than the next man. While an alderman -he held the chairmanship of several important -committees and was delegated on -two occasions: first, to Chicago with ex-Mayor -J. A.

It was -during Mr. Gariepy’s term of office that the -Edmonton automatic telephone system was -installed; that the street railway system was -completed and put in operation; and that -the C.P.R high-level bridge was completed -and opened for traffic; and that negotiations -for the amalgamation of Edmonton and -Strathcona were begun. In 1910 Mr. -Gariepy was chairman of the civic committee -that organized such a splendid reception as -was tendered to Sir Wilfrid Laurier, then -Prime Minister, on the occasion of his visit -to the Capital of Alberta, and it was at that -time that Mr. Gariepy secured the adoption -of a resolution by the city council giving to -a park the name of “Laurier Park.” Mr. -Gariepy took a leading part in the federal -campaigns of 1904, 1908 and 1911. In 1909 -he was the unsuccessful Liberal candidate in -the provincial constituency of St. Albert, his -successful opponent being also a Liberal, as -there was no Conservative candidate running. -In 1911 he was elected Grand Knight -of the Edmonton Council of the Knights of -Columbus; in 1907 he was elected president -of the Edmonton Société de St. Jean Baptiste; -in 1912 he was elected vice-president of the -French-Canadian Alberta Convention, held -in Edmonton, and by that convention was -elected as the only delegate to represent it -at the French-Canadian Congress held that -year in the city of Quebec; in 1913 he was -elected president of the Society du Parler-Français -of Alberta, and as such presided -over the French-Canadian congress of Alberta, -held at Edmonton in 1914.

His grand-uncle -was Robert Montgomery, who was for many -years a mill-owner and manufacturer in -Johnstone. From school he entered the -Glasgow E. C. Training College, after taking -a Queen’s Scholarship, and graduated as a -teacher from it with the highest certificate -of his year granted by the Lords of the Council -of Education, London, and with special -certificates from the Science and Art Department, -Kensington. After coming to -Canada he became a graduate of Queen’s -University, Kingston, and thereafter received -the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, from the -Illinois University, after completing the three -years’ post-graduate course in the section of -metaphysical science. In 1881 he was unanimously -elected a Fellow of the Educational -Institute of Scotland, an honor seldom conferred -on teachers laboring outside of Great -Britain. For a time he acted as principal of -the Model Schools of Nova Scotia, and afterwards -as principal of the Victoria High School -of St. John, New Brunswick. While there -he was asked by the Premier of Prince Edward -Island to become Superintendent of -Education in that province, which he declined -to accept. But when the Victoria School -buildings were destroyed in the great fire of -St. John, he was induced to accept the -principalship of the Provincial Normal School -in Charlottetown and the Supervisorship of -the City Schools, while St. John and its -school buildings were being rebuilt. At the -end of three years spent in inaugurating the -new system of schools in Prince Edward -Island, he was invited, in face of his inclination -to return to his former position in New -Brunswick, to take charge of the Quebec -High School as its Rector; and, accepting -the appointment, he thus became identified -with the educational interests of the Province -of Quebec, where he has labored ever -since, closing his career as an educationist in -active service as Inspector of the Protestant -Superior Schools of that province. While -holding that office he entered upon his vocation -as an author, having been for many -years editor-in-chief of the “Educational -Record,” a contributor to the “Educational -Monthly” of Ontario, the “Queen’s Quarterly,” -and other periodicals, besides being associated -with Dr. Thomas Morison, of -Glasgow, one of the most distinguished -of the educationists of Scotland, in the -compilation of sundry text-books. His -earlier essays and addresses on “The New -Education,” and “Cause and Effect in -School Work,” led to his issue of “A Manual -on Moral Drill,” in line with his pleadings -for an educative “Mental and Physical -Drill” in the schools of the day. His plan -for a definite moral training is thus -spoken of by a New York educationist and -author of high standing: “Dr. Harper’s -work is entirely original. It is sound. It is -eminently practical and it should be most -heartily adopted by all who have the training -of the young in hand, and who earnestly -desire that the rising generation may develop -into a ‘coming race,’ in whom moral rectitude -will be natural and spontaneous.” As -an author, Dr. Harper has had a career as -full of the best kind of literary work, as has -been his career as an educationist in advice -with his co-workers in school progress -throughout Canada. The list of the books -he has written is all but incredibly large. -His <span class='it'>chef-d’ouvre</span> is unquestionably his drama -of “Champlain,” which has given him rank, -as one critic says, as the greatest of our Canadian -dramatic poets since the days of -Heavysege. The late George Murray, of -Montreal, a writer of just discrimination, -claimed that Dr. Harper is one of the most -versatile and prolific of Canadian litterateurs. -A partial list of his literary output from year -to year includes the following: “The Development -of the Greek Drama,” “The Chronicles -of Kartdale,” “Sacrament Sunday and -the Bells of Kartdale,” “The Earliest Beginnings -of Canada,” “The Montgomery -Siege,” “The Little Sergeant,” “The Seer of -Silver Lake,” “<span class='it'>Domini Domus</span>, or the Chateau -St. Louis,” “The Songs of the Commonwealth,” -and “A Guide to Good Will in the -Empire.” Three uniformly bound volumes -of his series of “Studies in Verse and Prose,” -have so far appeared, including “The Battle -of the Plains,” and “The Annals of the War,” -supplementary to his “Champlain, a Drama.” -With the influence of his earlier years clinging -to him, he has not failed to produce many -pieces that depict the scenes of the land of -his birth; and his poetic status as a versifier -in the Doric of the Scottish Lowlands has -been duly recognized by Dr. John D. Ross -in his volume on “The Scottish Poets in -America,” as well as by the gifted author of -the book entitled “The Scot in America.” -Dr. Ross pays a high tribute to the author -of “Sacrament Sunday,” “Saint Andrew’s -Day,” “The Old Graveyard,” “Auld Jeames -and His Crack,” “Horace in the Doric,” -and others of Dr. Harper’s Scottish odes, in -such words as these: “Sweet as the note of a -bird in the wildwood, strongly embued with -patriotism, fervent in religious sentiment, -eloquent in thought, pure in expression, and -noble in purpose, form a few of the characteristics -of Dr. Harper, the Canadian educationist -and author.” In addition to all this, -Dr. Harper is a loyal Canadian. In all his -public utterances and in the pleadings of his -prolific authorship in book or magazine or -newspaper, he is a Canadian citizen who -upholds as a British subject the ample patriotism -of the British Empire. He has been -twice married, his first wife’s maiden name -having been Miss Agnes Kirkwood, daughter -of William Kirkwood of Stanley Muir, near -Paisley, and his second, Miss Elizabeth -Hastings, daughter of Andrew Hastings, of -St. John and step-daughter of William -Nossack, a former Mayor of Quebec.

From -school and after some preliminary training in -municipal work, he passed into the “Chronicle” -office, when Mr. John J. Foote was manager -and proprietor of the paper, and there -worked his way up through the various departments -of journalism, until he finally -became the managing director of the establishment. -He has held the office of President -of the Quebec Press Association, and -visited London for a first time as a delegate -to the Imperial Press Congress, held in that -city in 1908, and a third time as commander -of the 8th Royal Rifles during the royal celebration -of 1901. In the military life of -Quebec he has been interested for over -twenty years, and during that time was given -promotion step by step until he was in command -of his battalion as its Colonel, a position -which he had held for two or three years -before the European War broke out. Having -been selected to take charge of the 2nd -Battalion in the 1st Brigade of the 1st Canadian -Division, in August, 1914, he proceeded -from the Valcartier Camp with troops -in charge, for their further training at Salisbury -Plains; and, after spending the early -winter months there, he proceeded to the -front in January, 1915. He was by this time -a Colonel in full rank. At the seat of war he -was continuously engaged as a commanding -officer all during the campaigning up to the -summer of 1917, having taken part with his -Division in the operations of Neuve Chapelle, -in March, 1915, as well as in the second battle -of Ypres in April, in the fight at Festubert -in May, and that of Givenchy in June. In -recognition of his skill and prudence in these -engagements he was promoted to command -the 5th Brigade of the 2nd Canadian Division -in the month of August following, and forthwith -as a Brigadier-General, he led his -Brigade in the successive engagements -of Wytschaete, Kemmel, and St. Eloi, during -the spring of 1916. Subsequently he was -placed in charge of the 4th Canadian Division -and made extended raids in the Ypres -salient and at St. Eloi, and thereafter, -for forty-nine days without intermission, -he and his Brigade shared in the exciting -engagements along the River Somme. -No less than three attacks were made by -General Watson and his Division, one on the -11th of October, another on the 22nd of that -month, and one on the 18th of November, -1916, all of these accumulating renown by -their intrepid approach on the enemy. Nor -was the commander’s bravery overlooked by -the War Office, since General Watson has -come in for special mention in the despatches -exchanged between the general Field Staff and -the War Department no less than four times. -He was awarded the high honor of Commander -of the Bath, and in 1918 was further -honored by a Knighthood in that order. -The record of the General’s active service -at the front is a fitting complement to -a career of over twenty years’ experience in -military operations, from the days of his -entering the 8th Royal Rifles, made up of his -Quebec fellow-citizens, to the time of his -being a General in full command of the battlefields -of Europe.

He was -educated at the public school of his district -and later at Strathroy Collegiate Institute. -Going to British Columbia in 1893 when -but eighteen years of age he first engaged -in school teaching at Sidney, B.C. Later he -located in Victoria, B.C., and entered on a -business career. At the time the war broke -out he was the head of the firm of Currie & -Power, one of the leading real estate concerns -of Vancouver Island. Nearest to his -heart, however, were military pursuits, and -he early identified himself with the 5th -Canadian Garrison Artillery, in which he -served fourteen years, rising ultimately to -the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel. With him, -however, military activity was not merely a -case of dress parades, but a real pursuit. -He devoted himself seriously to the study of -modern tactics, not only in connection with -his own arm of the service but infantry as -well. He used his influence to encourage -rifle shooting, and from 1907 onward was -President of the British Columbia Rifle -Association. On the outbreak of the war -followed by the decision of the Canadian -Government to send an Expeditionary Force -to the front, Col. Currie was recognized as -one of the most efficient volunteer officers in -this country, and when Sir Sam Hughes -telegraphed him asking him to accept a -command he did not hesitate to offer his -services. He was assigned to the command -of the Vancouver Highland Battalion, which -trained at Valcartier Camp, and went -overseas in the late autumn of 1914 to complete -its training on Salisbury Plain. The -regiment was one of the first Canadian units -sent to France, and in the terrible fighting -at St. Julien and Langemarck in connection -with the second battle of Ypres, April, 1915, -had its baptism of blood. This was the -engagement of which Viscount French -reported to the War Office “The Canadians -saved the day.” In this severe test Colonel -Currie won a reputation for leadership and -courage of the highest order which has distinguished -him ever since. He received -enthusiastic praise from General Alderson, -the Imperial officer then in command of the -Canadian division, and on the latter’s -recommendation was accorded the coveted -D.S.O. and given command of a brigade. -His service as brigade commander proved so -completely successful that his work won the -attention of the British Headquarters Staff, -and when a reorganization of commands -ensued as a result of the arrival of two new -Canadian divisions in the field, he was -elevated to the rank of Major-General and -placed in charge of the First Division of the -Canadian Army. In this post he commanded -his division at the Battle of Hooge, when it -resisted the full force of the German assault -in what was described as “this particular -hell of Hooge.” His cool and brilliant -handling of what was admittedly a critical -situation for all forces on the bloody Ypres -salient won him the unstinted praise of his -immediate chief-in-command, General Sir -Julian Byng, and all the other British -military experts. The correspondent of the -London “Times” reported that nothing finer -was ever seen in warfare than the manner in -which the lines over Maple Cape, Observatory -Ridge and Armagh Wood were held by -the troops under General Currie’s command. -Sir Julian Byng in his report said “I am proud -of the Canadian troops under my command. -Their behaviour has been magnificent. I -have never known fiercer or more deadly -barrage, nor have I seen any troops fight -with more earnestness, courage and cheerfulness.” -He especially praised General Currie’s -counter attack with the Canadian -division at 1.30 on the morning of June 13, -1916, on a front of 500 yards extending from -Sanctuary Wood to Hill 60, when heavy -losses were inflicted on the Germans and -prisoners taken. The spring of 1917 was -marked by glorious achievement on the part -of the Canadian troops, including the captures -of Messines Ridge and Vimy Ridge, and -finally attaining the investment of Lens. In -the midst of the spring campaign Sir Julian -Byng was shifted to the command of a -British Army. General Currie was at once -recognized as his logical successor and -became the Chief-in-Command of the Canadian -Army in the field with four divisions -under him. The victory of Vimy which was -heralded throughout the world as a great -military achievement, was generally credited -to General Currie’s masterly powers of -preparation and organization. It was in -recognition of these services that His Majesty -King George knighted him on the field of -Vimy as a member of the Order of St. Michael -and St. George. Earlier still he had been -made a Companion of the Bath. It was on -June 19, 1917, that he assumed the chief -command, and one of his first achievements -was the capture of Hill 70 on his own initiative, -rendering the important mining city -of Lens, which had been in German occupation -for nearly three years, untenable for -military uses by the enemy. General Currie -could have occupied Lens any time during -the summer of 1917 that it was deemed -desirable, but owing to the belief of the -French Government that its capture would -only result in further destruction, without -military advantage, the word to advance was -withheld. Instead, during the autumn of -1917 General Currie and his army were -assigned by Sir Douglas Haig to one of the -most terrible tasks that was ever allotted to -a military force. It was that of taking -Passchendaele Ridge in Flanders with a view -to getting to Roulers and cutting off the -U-Boat bases of Zeebrugge and Ostend. Sir -Douglas Haig assigned the task to the -Canadians because he believed that under -the command of General Currie they had -developed into the best “shock” troops in -the world. The Germans on the other hand -believed that Passchendaele Ridge was -impregnable, and many military experts -agreed with them; but the U-Boat menace -was such that the attempt was deemed to be -justified by necessity. Before the attack -General Currie personally addressed his men, -and did not disguise what they had to face, -but so fired them with the spirit of victory -that despite terrible losses they carried the -Ridge. It was one of the tragedies of the -war that the Flanders winter closed down so -suddenly that it was impossible to reap the -full fruits of victory by advancing to Roulers. -By spring the situation had been absolutely -changed by the great German offensive of -March, 1918, and Passchendaele was temporarily -abandoned. This circumstance did -not alter the greatness of the original achievement, -attained in obedience to the orders of -the Headquarters command. In the final -stages of the war which gave the Allies -victory the Canadian army under General -Currie played a role of immortal lustre. -They entered in the fighting in full force on -August 8, 1918, and from thence onward -until the signing of the armistice on November -11 victory after victory crowned their -banners. The greatest of their achievements -was perhaps the breaking of the Drocourt-Queant -Switch Line, a part of the great -“Hindenburg” defence system, which the -Germans had also boasted was impregnable. -When General Currie achieved this victory -and opened the road to Cambrai it was at -once recognized by war experts, and even by -German critics, that Marshal Foch’s strategy -could succeed in a much shorter period than -had been anticipated if such efforts could be -repeated on other parts of the Allied front. -As everyone knows this prognostication was -not falsified. Before the war was over -General Currie and his army had to their -credit the capture of Cambrai and of Valenciennes, -two of the most vital points in the -German resistance. Two hours before the -armistice was signed General Currie rode as -a conqueror into Mons, the point where the -old “contemptibles” of the original British -Army had first shown their prowess against -the Germans in 1914. During the cleaning-up -operations following the war, his administrative -abilities have proven most valuable. -On New Year’s Day, 1919, his services were -further recognized by bestowing on him the -honor of Grand Cross of St. Michael and -St. George, an order in which he was already -a Knight. It must not be forgotten also -that in the critical period when Canada’s -maintenance of her forces in France was in -doubt, General Currie’s voice had great -weight in determining the action of the -people of this country. He strongly urged -on Sir Robert Borden and other ministers -that this country should do everything in -its power to help win the war and meet the -condition caused by the falling off of enlistments, -a condition which was threatening -the dissolution of his ever-victorious army. -The result was the decision of the Canadian -Government to adopt the policy of conscription. -During the election campaign that -ensued he sent the following message to the -Canadian people on behalf of himself and -his staff: “We sincerely sympathize with -endeavors to arouse our countrymen to the -necessity of remaining united and firm in -their determination to furnish troops in the -field all necessary support. We deeply deplore -the fact that the wisdom of doing so -has become a subject for debate and controversy -by those at home. If support is -now withheld or even delayed it means that -additional burdens will have to be borne by -men already doing the seemingly impossible.” -This message coming from the most eminent -of Canadian soldiers and one who in private -life had been a political opponent of the -Borden administration, could not fail to -bring thousands of electors to a sense of -their duty to the soldier in the field. There -have been rumors that an effort would be -made to induce General Currie to enter -Canadian politics as a Liberal leader on his -return from the front, but so far he has -refused to assent to any such proposals. -He is an Anglican in religion and was married -in 1901 to Miss L. S. Chaworth-Masters of -Victoria, B.C., by whom he has one daughter. -A quiet man of iron determination and -marvellous powers of organization, he is, -however, certain to play a prominent role in -the life of Canada in future, whatever path -he may elect to follow.</p> - -<hr class='tbk421'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='gira'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Girard, A.

Of him, -an eminent public man gives us the following: -“Canada, though in some senses a young -country, has already produced a group of -noted artists, whose depiction of her landscape -and life is helping to make the Dominion -known throughout the world. Among -the leaders in this group is John Wycliffe -Lowes Forster, than whom none of our artists -has done so much for our national portraiture. -Not only has he painted more of our public -men than any of his contemporaries, but he -is the only Canadian artist who has devoted -his whole genius to the painting of portraits. -If all Mr. Forster’s portraits of famous Canadians, -which hang in public buildings and -noted homes, were gathered together, they -would in themselves constitute a large national -portrait gallery, and this gallery would -be quite representative of the great leaders -in all walks of life. Among our statesmen—Sir -John A. Macdonald, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, -Alexander Mackenzie, John Sandfield Macdonald, -Sir John Thompson, Robert Baldwin, -Wm. Lyon Mackenzie, William S. Fielding, -Sir George Ross and Sir James P. Whitney, -constitute a comprehensive group. In divinity, -such noted personalities as Punshon, -Cavan, Carman, Primate Archbishop Machray, -Primate Archbishop Sweatman, Bishop -O’Connor, Milligan, Kellog, Maclaren; in -the Judiciary—Chancellors Moss, Boyd, -Meredith and Mulock; in University life—Paxton -Young, Geikie, Nelles, Burwash, -Rand, Wallace, Loudon and Galbraith; -among noted military men—Wolfe, Brock, -Roberts, Denison, Merritt and Otter; in -other walks—Strathcona, Goldwin Smith, -General Booth, Egerton Ryerson, Sir Sandford -Fleming, Senator Cox, Senator Jaffray, -MacKenzie King, Sir Gilbert Parker and -George Brown are representative of a brilliant -galaxy preserved to posterity by Forster’s -indefatigable genius. Added to his -Canadian clientele, Mr. Forster has in recent -years painted many distinguished portrait -subjects in the United States. Born in Halton -County in the middle of the Nineteenth century, -of cultivated English stock, he was -reared, like other men of genius, amid the -simpler pursuits of country life, and his pictures -are therefore remarkable for subtle -insight into character, and have at the same -time the refined atmosphere of old world -culture.”</p> - -<hr class='tbk431'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='engl'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Englehart, Joel Lewis</span></span> (Toronto, Ont.), -Chairman of the Temiskaming and Northern -Ontario Railway (owned by the Province of -Ontario), is the son of Joel and Hannah -Englehart, and was born on November 2, -1847, in Cleveland, Ohio, and received his -education there.

In 1909 he gave an X-Ray equipment -to St. Michael’s Hospital, Toronto, and in -the following year a chime of eleven bells, -one of the finest in the Province, to Christ -Church, Petrolea, and it is safe to assume -that his private generosity has more than -kept pace with his public benefactions. In -March, 1905, Mr. Englehart was appointed -Chairman of the Temiskaming & Northern -Ontario Railway Commission and his success -in developing what he is pleased to call -“Greater Ontario” has amply justified the -late Sir James Whitney’s choice in placing -him in this responsible position. He has -been accustomed to business on a large scale, -involving powers of comprehension, quick -perception and careful calculation, and on -his appointment, turned his ability and experience -to good account in the service of -the Province. He is very much interested -in the extension of the road and the development -of the vast farming, timber and mining -country it serves, as may be judged from the -fact that only eleven times during the twelve -years he has been Chairman of the Commission -has he missed his monthly trip over the -road, and only once has he taken a month’s -holiday. He believes that “Greater Ontario” -is the biggest asset Canada has and -is firmly convinced that no spot on the continent -affords such opportunity for success -as the territory traversed by the T. & N.O. -Railway System and that to which it has not -yet extended. In support of this claim, Mr. -Englehart refers to a series of articles published -in the “Globe” of August, 1916, which -has previously been somewhat critical, written -by that paper’s farming editor, and giving -statistics to show that the production both -in roots and grain per acre in “Greater Ontario” -was far in excess of the best returns -in the older sections of the Province. Mr. -Englehart is both the apostle and the prophet -of the North, enthusiastically proclaiming its -unrivalled potential possibilities, and as he -is better informed on the subject than any -other man, his statements may be accepted -at face value.

Wellington and O’Connor -streets, Ottawa. Its authorized capital was -$500,000 and its paid-up capital $343,875. -An unique happening is connected with the -founding of this bank, viz., that some twelve -days before the head office in Ottawa was -opened and ready for business, a branch office -was established in Arnprior under the management -of Mr. David Maclachan Finnie, who -was then a young man of 25 years and who -in 1903, 29 years later, became Assistant -General Manager and in 1916, General -Manager, which position he held up to the -time, April 30th, 1919, of its amalgamation -with the Bank of Nova Scotia. Mr. Finnie -was, therefore, the first manager of the Bank -of Ottawa to do business with the public in -its solitary branch in Arnprior in 1874, when -authorized capital of the bank was $500,000, -and the last General Manager of the bank in -1919, when its Capital was $4,000,000; when -its reserve fund was $4,750,000; when its -branches numbered 95; when it had contributed -228 members of its staff to the great -cause of liberty in the world’s great war; -when its total assets were $70,243,000, and -its liabilities $60,539,000, showing a surplus of -just under $10,000,000; and when it was -paying the shareholders over 12 per cent. -on the par value of the stock. The Bank of -Ottawa, from the start, established a high -character which it always retained. Its -management had a reputation invariably for -generous dealings with its clients and never -more than of the late years; and to Mr. -Finnie’s affable manner, generous, yet wise, -consideration of its clients’ requirements -and his undoubted ability both as a banker -and as a financier, the success achieved by -the bank was considerably attributable.

He has published -three volumes of poems and one book -of short stories.

John</span></span> (Victoria, B.C.), son of -Robert Oliver, of Derbyshire, England, and -Emma Lomas, his wife, of Staffordshire. -Was born on July 31, 1856, at Hartington, -Derbyshire, England. In April, 1870, his -parents, with eight children, of whom the -subject of this sketch was the eldest, left the -Motherland, and eventually settled on a -farm in Wellington County, Ontario. There -he worked on his father’s farm in the summer -and went to the woods in the winter, and, -in his spare time, picked up stone masonry. -In 1877, the future premier set out for -Victoria B.C., with only a few dollars in his -pocket and no particular job in sight. -Twenty-three years later he returned to the -capital as a member of the Legislature, and -forty years afterwards he became head of the -Provincial Government. Shortly after going -to British Columbia, Mr. Oliver took up land -in the Delta municipality, and to-day he is -the proprietor of one of the finest farms in -the province. Mr. Oliver has always evinced -a genius for public service, and has always -taken a keen and intelligent interest in public -questions. He had not been long in the west -before he was elected a member of the Delta -Municipal Council, and was later reeve for -several terms. He was first elected to the -British Columbia Legislature at the general -elections in 1900, and re-elected in 1903 and -1907. At the general elections in 1909, as -leader of the Opposition, he contested two -constituencies, Victoria and Delta, and was -defeated in both. A similar experience -awaited him in 1911, and again in the campaign -in 1912. In 1916, upon the formation -of the Brewster cabinet, he was appointed -Minister of Railways and Agriculture. On -the death of Premier Brewster, after one -session in office, Mr. Oliver was called upon -by the Lieutenant-Governor to form a -Government, which he did, retaining his -former portfolios, besides acting as Premier. -His reputation as a parliamentarian of the -first rank was firmly established by the part -he played in the exposure of what was known -as the “Columbia and Western Railway -Scandal.” He was chiefly instrumental in -having grants for some 650,000 acres of coal -mining land in the Kootenay district cancelled. -Premier Oliver was married on June 20, 1886, -to Elizabeth, daughter of William Woodward, -of Mud Bay, British Columbia. He is -the father of the following children: Robert, -William Arthur, John Thomas, Charles -Edward, Joseph, Elizabeth Alice, Sarah Ellen, -Mildred Emma. Premier Oliver has for -years been known as “Honest John,” and his -long record for probity and fair dealing justly -entitles him to this distinction. Although -somewhat handicapped in early life by lack -of scholastic training, the Premier was by -nature a student, and he became a wide -reader. He is a man of rugged honesty, -industrious and aggressive, and enjoys a -measure of public confidence which is indicated -by the title conferred upon him by the -people of his province. The Premier’s candour -and courage are recognized as his -greatest assets, while his long association -with public affairs and foremost position in -the Liberal party has made his name a household -word in British Columbia. The Premier -possesses sufficient property, acquired by his -own industry, to make him independent of -political fortunes. He is undoubtedly one -of the most interesting and picturesque -figures in Canadian public life.</p> - -<hr class='tbk486'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='ferg'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Ferguson, Hon.

His enterprise -in that country laid the foundations of -a substantial fortune, and on his return to -Victoria, he became Liberal candidate for the -House of Commons for Vancouver Island at -the general elections of 1900. He was re-elected -both in 1904 and 1908, and became -one of the most popular figures in Ottawa -during that period. Shortly after his election -in 1908, he resigned his seat in order that the -late Hon. William Templeman, who had been -Appointed Minister of Inland Revenue, might -be elected as his successor. For eight years -Hon.

He was re-elected at -the general election in 1908, 1911 and 1914, -and is to-day the most popular man in the riding. -A few years ago the member for North -York originated the “Lennox Picnic” which -has been declared to be the biggest affair -of its kind in the world.

Lennox, where they -gave a splendid account of themselves. -This battalion had one of the finest brass and -bugle bands in the Canadian forces and also -the fully equipped Brian Boru Irish War -Pipe Band, the first of its kind in Canada, -made possible by the splendid generosity of -Mrs. Ambrose J.

His parents decided that he -should adopt the career of a physician, and -after a good general education in his native -city at Heriot’s Hospital school, he entered -Edinburgh University, and graduated in -1884 with the degree of M.B., C.M. -In the same year he came to Canada, -and commenced the practice of his -profession at Deloraine, Manitoba. He -became well-known throughout the province, -and, in 1896, was elected President of the -Manitoba Medical Council; and, later, President -of the Medical Council of Canada. -Among other matters in which he interested -himself was that of horticulture, a neglected -pursuit in the western country, and became -recognized as a pioneer horticulturist of the -prairies, and an inspiration to others to -adopt such a hobby. He became identified -with the Liberal party, and, in 1907, was -elected to the Manitoba Legislature for -Deloraine. Though defeated in 1910, he -was again elected in 1914, and also in the -general elections of 1915, which resulted -in the overthrow of the Roblin administration. -He had taken a very strong -stand against the indifference of the -authorities to school problems; and when -Hon.

In no section of the world -is the problem of education more difficult, -owing to the great number of nationalities -represented in the numbers of unlettered -immigrants that poured into Manitoba in the -years preceding the great war. With the -problem of making the children of these newcomers -good Canadians, conversant with the -language and institutions of the land of their -adoption, Dr. Thornton grappled, in 1915, -and three and a half years later it was the -testimony of the Winnipeg “Tribune,” -that the change of government had -been worth while, if only for what had -been accomplished in making the schools of -Manitoba Canadian. Before he became -Minister of Education, large numbers of the -public schools were nondescript, and breeding -centres of foreign speech and ideals. In a -determined and unflinching way, Dr. Thornton -put into action, through the machinery -of the schools, the ideals of true Canadianism, -and for the first time enforced the law with -regard to an English education for every child -of school age in Manitoba.

Subsequently, in 1670, -he was married a second time to Jehanne -Dandonneau de Sables, of which union were -born nine children. The eldest grandson of -this couple was Hon. Jacques Duperon Bâby, -who was born in 1731, and lived until 1796. -While he was still a young man, the British -conquest of Canada occurred, and Detroit -falling into British hands in 1760, Jacques -Duperon Bâby and his wife, Suzanne de la -Croix Rheaume (who lived until 1812), became -British subjects. In all they had twenty-two -children. The name of Hon. Jacques -Duperon Bâby is intimately interwoven with -the history of the Essex peninsula. He played -a prominent part in the defence of the Detroit -district during the conspiracy of the Indian -chieftain, Pontiac, in 1760. He was a man -of great worth and integrity, who enjoyed the -confidence alike of the French, English, -and Indian population, and consequently was -able to be of great assistance to the British -government in the establishment of the new -regime. Hon. Jacques Duperon Bâby was the -eldest of his many children. He was born in -1762 and died in 1833, and held positions of -honour and influence in the young colony of -Upper Canada. Jean Baptiste Bâby, grandfather -of the subject of this sketch, was a -younger brother, and served as Treasurer of -the newly-organized County of Essex. Two -other brothers entered the British army, one, -Daniel, rising to the rank of Major-General; -while four of his sisters married British officers, -one of whom was Lord Bellingham. The eldest -son of Jean Baptiste Bâby was William -Duperon Bâby, afterward sheriff of Essex, -born at Sandwich in 1819; and the subject -of this sketch was William’s sixth child. -Since most of the various generations had -large families, the Bâby family connection -in Western Ontario, and indeed throughout -America is literally enormous, and all have -preserved the high tradition of “noblesse -oblige.” Mr. Dixie Bâby was educated -at the Separate Schools and at Assumption -College, Sandwich, Ont., and at the Christian -Brothers’ School, Toronto, in 1876. At the -age of eighteen he was appointed to the -Inland Revenue service, and detailed to -Rae’s distillery as assistant officer to the -late Pierre Ramon. He qualified himself so -well as a vigilant watcher of the government -interests in connection with the important -revenue derived from excise that he has -since served in many parts of Canada, -including Paris, Woodstock, St. Catharines, -Belleville, Brantford, Portage la -Prairie, and Berthierville, Que. He was -first stationed at Hamilton in 1886 as second -officer to the late William Donaghy, and in -1890 transferred to Berthierville. In 1892 -he went back to the Hamilton distillery, and -was appointed officer in charge in October, -1898. On November 21, 1914, he was appointed -Collector of Inland Revenue in -charge of the entire Hamilton division. His -duties have always been of a character which -required expert knowledge as well as rigid -probity, and during his forty-three years’ -service he has won the unfailing confidence -of the Department, no matter which party -was in power. In December, 1880, he married -Mary McDougall, of Belleville, Ont., who was -born April 7, 1861. He has had seven children: -Christina Caroline, deceased; Julia Fortier -and Mary Louisa (twins, also deceased); -Frances Jeanette, wife of Henri Bâby, notary -public, Lachine, Que.; John Dixie; George -Raymond; and Madeline Cecilia. Capt. -George Raymond Bâby, M.D., C.M., who -was born at Berthierville on April 1, 1892, -went to France with the McGill University -1915 unit, Canadian Army Medical Corps, and -was awarded the Military Cross for bravery -and devotion to duty during the great British -advance which began August 8, 1918, and -only ended when the armistice was signed. -The other son, John Dixie Bâby, is a civil -engineer by profession, who assisted in building -the Canton Hankow Railway, China.</p> - -<hr class='tbk549'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='bell2'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Bell, Hon.

In 1916 Hon. Walter -Scott was obliged to resign the Premiership -of Saskatchewan owing to ill health and -Mr. Martin’s party friends in the West -urged that he resign from Federal politics and -accept the Premiership. He assented and -at a by-election on November 13, 1916, -was returned for Mr. Scott’s seat, Regina -City, by acclamation.

He was educated in Ottawa at -the Grey Nuns’ Convent and the Christian -Brothers’ School. Building it on a sure -foundation—according to the laws of economics, -well equipped, and capably managed -by experts—Mr. Henry made his school an -enviable success. At the opening in 1913, -the school was located at the corner of Bank -and Gloucester Streets, and within three -months, having outgrown its original premises -it was removed to its present premises on the -corner of Sparks and Bank Streets—the -Capital’s busy corner—which from time to -time have been enlarged as the requirements -of increased attendance demanded until -to-day they are some five times the original -size, and are likely to be enlarged still further -at an early date, although his school is to-day -the largest in Eastern Ontario. When the -school was transferred from the corner of -Bank and Gloucester Streets to the corner of -Bank and Sparks, Mr. Henry had but 40 -day pupils. In 1918, the number had increased -to 562, which students are to-day -holding good positions in the Dominion -Government offices, manufacturing and -wholesale establishments, banking houses, -etc., all of which bears tribute to the high -standard of efficiency of the school. For -eleven years before Mr. Henry went into -business for himself, he was in charge of the -shorthand department of the Willis Business -College in Ottawa, when S. T. Willis was -proprietor. In his school, his staff consists -of experts in shorthand, typewriting, -business penmanship, practical English, -spelling, punctuation, transcription, correspondence, -etc., etc., and those who receive -instruction in any one of these receive the -best that can be had. At the age of 16 years, -Mr. Henry was awarded a Fourth Form -Certificate and honours for composition, -spelling and penmanship. He acquired a -systematic course of self-instruction, studied -shorthand (French system) and afterwards -English, and made himself proficient in the -Isaac Pitman, Ben Pitman, Graham, Munson, -Scott-Browne, Beale, Calligraphy (a Canadian -production), and the Gregg systems. -He studied French, English, German, Greek -and Latin, and received special study in -penmanship at the Zanerian College, Columbus, -Ohio. To acquire a practical business -education, he had experience as stenographer -and bookkeeper with big business firms such -as Perkins & Fraser, barristers; Alexander -Mutchmor, auditor, etc. From 1894 to -1896, Mr. Henry made a special study of -scientific methods for imparting shorthand -and typewriting, and during 1895-6 -taught shorthand at the Capital City -Business College, at Ottawa, and had -charge of the Y.M.C.A. classes for several -months. In 1896, he attended the Rochester, -New York, Business Institute, to acquire a -greater qualification for teaching, and, in -1899, established a shorthand school, -which later he closed to join the staff of the -Metropolitan Business College at Ottawa. -For two years, he attended Rev. Dr. -McMeekin’s “Ottawa College of Oratory,” -and gave several successful recitals in the -Albert Hall. In 1899, Mr. Henry corrected -a text book on Pitman’s shorthand for Messrs. -Powers and Lyons, of Chicago, Illinois. -Mr. Henry is a graduate of the New York -College of Phonography; the Phonographic -Institute, Cincinnati, Ohio; and is the only -personal graduate in Canada of the well known -Gregg School of Chicago.

From January, 1892, -to July, 1894, he taught in rural ungraded -schools, after which he returned to the farm -for five years to care for his father and mother. -Deciding to equip himself as a commercial -teacher he took a course at Stratford Business -College, and after graduation taught in that -institution for six months.

In -1904, he became Principal, and under his -guidance built up the institution into one of -the most important of its kind in Western -Ontario. In Woodstock he also took an -active part in public and business affairs. He -acted as auditor for several large commercial -houses, and sat in the municipal council as -alderman. In the latter capacity his business -acumen and sound judgment made him one -of the most useful of public servants. His -faculty for acquiring knowledge of every -detail of civic business made him very valuable -in the consideration of measures for the -city’s welfare, so that when in August, 1909, -he decided to leave Woodstock, expressions -of regret were universal. In Woodstock, also, -he became very active in the temperance -cause, and served as Secretary-Treasurer of -the North Oxford Prohibition Association. -As Treasurer of the local branch of the -Y.M.C.A., he rendered very important service -in connection with the erection of new -buildings, and he was very prominent in -church work as a member of the Methodist -body.

About -1880 he joined his father in the publication -of a monthly insurance journal called “The -Budget.” From its first issue the new paper -was independent in policy and aggressive in -tone, and its strictures upon some of the -loose practices of insurance companies, and -especially its denunciations of wild-cat -concerns carrying on a business of plunder in -the name of insurance, made it a power in its -field. A fairly extensive printing business -was developed as a side line of the business, -but ultimately this proved too complex a -load for the periodical to carry. The result -was that other people acquired the rights in -“The Budget.” But the Campbells, father -and son, at once came out with a new venture, -“The Bulletin,” virtually a continuation of -the old. In 1905, feeling the need of greater -freedom in editorial and business policy than -his surroundings permitted, Mr. Campbell -dissociated himself from his father, and began -the publication of “Office and Field,” a -weekly—in its time the only weekly journal -in the world wholly devoted to life insurance. -The world-wide upheaval in life insurance -business arising from the investigation by a -committee of the legislature of the State of -New York in 1905 threatened the new venture -with early extinction, but by daring and skilful -guidance Mr. Campbell brought his craft to -success. He demanded and insisted upon -service of the public as the one justification -for life insurance. It was largely through -his influence that the life insurance agents -were organized as the Life Underwriters’ -Association of Canada, an institution which, -carrying out the policy which he and other -leaders laid down, has achieved a splendid -success.

His father was -an extensive and prosperous farmer, and this -afforded the subject of this sketch the opportunity -of exercising in his boyhood his innate -love of horses which he still retains. While -afforded, like other members of his family, -all the facilities for pursuing the highest educational -course, he was satisfied with that of -the common schools which have produced -so many successful Scotchmen. He served -with the Rothes (Elginshire) Volunteers from -1882 till 1888, when he came to Canada, and -shortly afterwards joined the 48th Highlanders, -serving for five years. After leaving -school he pursued his own inclinations, and -before coming to Canada had gained practical -experience in a general way, besides -having considerable knowledge along useful -technical lines as a reserve to fall back on. -In 1888, he became connected with the Empire -Tobacco Co., with which he remained -as Toronto representative till 1897, when he -established in Toronto the wholesale tobacco -and Cigar firm of W. B. Reid & Co., which -was the foundation of the present extensive -corporation of which he was the originator, -and has always been the head and controlling -genius. The firm was incorporated as the -United Cigar Stores, Limited, in 1902, with a -capital of $20,000, and opened several cigar -stores in Toronto. In May, 1914, the company’s -capital stock was increased to $250,000, -and the number of stores largely increased -and extended to outside cities. A -year later, United Cigar Stores, Limited, of -Canada was incorporated with a capital of -$3,800,000, with Mr. Reid still in full control. -The Company now has 164 stores, extending -from Quebec City to Port Arthur, including -39 in Toronto, 13 in Ottawa, 11 in Hamilton, -and one or more in almost every important -town in the province. Remarkable as this -achievement is in so short a time, it falls far -short of the goal set by Mr. Reid, who intends -to have stores in every city and town -of consequence in the Dominion, and no -doubt would have already made this goal -an established fact before now if the war -had not put a temporary stop to further -expansion. Besides operating this great -chain of stores, the company has two -large cigar factories, and as a holding company, -also controls a chain of Drug Stores -with about a dozen branches, and a constantly -and rapidly increasing business. The annual -turnover of the cigar stores and cigar factories -is between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000, -all directed by Mr. Reid personally from the -head office. This immense volume of business -enables the company to buy goods in -such large quantities that it obtains better -terms than are available by small purchasers, -and at the same time minimizes the percentage -of overhead expenses. Mr. Reid -married Edith E. Rogers, daughter of A. C. -Rogers, Newmarket, Ont., November 8, 1896. -He is a member of the Toronto and Montreal -Boards of Trade, of the Scarborough Golf -Club, Lakeview Golf, Mississauga Golf and -Ontario Clubs; member of the A.F. & A.M., -a Presbyterian, and independent in politics. -His chief recreations are bowling and golf. -He resides at 42 Lakeview Ave., Toronto. -Mr. Reid is genial in manner, a systematic organizer, -with sufficient of the imaginative -faculty to prompt enterprise and enough determination -and reserve force to ensure the -carrying out of anything to which he lays -his hand. He was the first man in the province -of Ontario to place on the market the -product of Canadian grown tobacco, and the -expansion of this business has proven his -foresight beyond question. The great war -made heavy drafts on the staff of the Company, -but Mr. Reid is too good a Britisher -to complain of that; in fact, in addition to -contributing thousands of dollars to patriotic -purposes, so strong along this line is he that -he never has allowed any foreign element to -obtain a footing in his company, which he -says will be strictly Canadian, without outside -influence, so long as he is at its head—and -that means as long as he desires to remain -in active business.</p> - -<hr class='tbk562'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='johnson'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Johnson, Hon.

His paternal grandfather -was a native of Scotland, who became -a member of the bar and later went to Jamaica, -where he took an active part in the -agitation for the abolition of slavery, which -became a fully accomplished fact in 1838. In -this movement Robertson was in correspondence -with Clarkson, Macaulay (father of Lord -Macaulay), Wilberforce and others active in -freeing the British Empire from this reproach. -Later, he came to Canada, where Gavin -Robertson, father of the subject of this sketch, -was born, and where he became a farmer and -school teacher on the Niagara peninsula. -Gideon Decker Robertson was educated at -the public and high schools of Welland and -as a youth took up telegraphy in connection -with railroad work. A strong believer in -trades unionism, he soon became active in -the Order of Railroad Telegraphers, an international -body, of which he was some years -ago elected Vice-President, an office he still -holds.

In -1917, when Sir Robert Borden decided -to abolish party lines and form a -Union Government, he offered Mr. Robertson -a position in the Senate and a seat -in his Cabinet.

Winnipeg was chosen as -a strategic point, because of its peculiar -geographical position as the chief divisional -point of three transcontinental railways. -The aim was to cut Canada in two in the -matter of communications, and then by -broadening the strike Eastward and Westward -secure complete control of Canadian -transportation and industry, after which the -movement was to be carried into every -section of the United States. Senator -Robertson himself went to the scene of -operations, and by his fearless, though moderate -handling of the situation, and his influence -with the saner labor elements, rendered -the conspiracy abortive so far as the rest -of Canada was concerned, and fruitless in -Winnipeg. He thus secured a triumph for -legitimate trade unionism, of which he is the -chief sponsor in Canada. He is a Freemason, -a Presbyterian, and in politics a member of -the Independent Labor Party. On June 10, -1896, he married Mary Berry Hay, daughter -of Alexander Hay, Watford, Ont., and has -six children—Edwin J., John McElroy, Gain -Elliot, Alexander Lorne, Mabel Letitia, and -Alma Lauretta.

William</span></span> (Ottawa, Ont.), -the subject of this sketch, was born in New -Edinburgh in 1843, a suburb of the city of -Ottawa. He was educated in the Public and -Grammar Schools. When about seventeen -years of age Col. Hutchison commenced to -learn the Milling business with his uncle, the -late Thos. McKay, who was then owner of -the McKay Mills at the Chaudiere and also -a partner in the New Edinburgh Mills. At -the age of twenty Col. Hutchison left for the -United States where he followed the milling -business for several years. On his return he -took charge of his uncle’s business and -shortly afterwards was made a partner. -In 1885 he was elected to City Council, -and served for seven years. It was -during Col. Hutchison’s service in the -City Council that the question of the -proper drainage of the city attained its -greatest importance, and it is owing to his -keen foresight and wise counsel and persistence -that Ottawa to-day has the excellent -drainage system of which it now boasts, and -that is but one of the many happenings for the -benefit, progress and beautification of Ottawa -that were brought into existence through his -instrumentality during his term of office in -the City’s Civic affairs. From 1888 -to, and including the year 1905, a period -of eighteen years, Col. Hutchison was -a member of the Board of Directors of the -Central Canada Exhibition Association, and -from 1895 to 1905, 10 years, he was President. -On retiring in 1906 he was elected -Honorary President of the Association and -has been re-elected to that position every -year since. Col. Hutchison, with the assistance -of Messrs. Ahearn and Topper, was -instrumental in converting the old horse car -line to electric, giving Ottawa one of the -best street car services on the continent. -He ran for the Dominion House in 1896, -with the result that both he and his -French colleague, Napoleon A. Belcourt, -were elected by a sweeping majority. At the -time the Conservatives felt that they had a -serious grievance, but ere long the good-hearted, -good-natured and genial new Member -became the friend and companion of both -Liberals and Conservatives in the House of -Commons. In 1901, when Sir Wilfrid Laurier -needed a competent man to travel to -all parts of the world to exhibit Canada’s -mineral, cereal and industrial resources, -Col. Hutchison was asked to accept the -position of Canadian Exhibition Commissioner. -He accepted and since his appointment -he has had charge of Canada’s -exhibits at the following times and places:—1901, -Buffalo, U.S.A.; 1902, Osaka, Japan; -1903-04 St. Louis, U.S.A.; 1905, Liege, -Belgium; 1906, Milan, Italy; 1907, Dublin, -Ireland; 1908, Shepherds Bush, London, -England; 1909, Seattle, U.S.A.; 1910, Brussels, -Belgium; 1911-12, Crystal Palace, London, -England; 1913, Ghent, Belgium; 1914-15, -San Francisco, U.S.A.; 1916-17, San -Diego, U.S.A. The great world war has caused -a cessation of the valuable exhibits, but the -whole display is located in commodious quarters -on Wellington St. in Ottawa, under Col. -Hutchison’s special care, waiting and ready -to be shipped at a moment’s notice. -In 1902 Col. Hutchison was decorated by the -Emperor of Japan with the Order of the -Rising Sun (with rank of Colonel in the -Army). In 1905 he was decorated by the -late King Leopold II. of Belgium, with the -Order of Leopold, and in 1906 by the King of -Italy with the Order of the Crown of Italy, -in 1910 he was made Commander of the -Order of the Crown of Belgium by King -Albert I. Col. William Hutchison is the son -of the late Robert Hutchison of Ayrshire, -Scotland, who came to Canada in 1830 and -in New Edinburgh married Mary McKay, -niece of the late Hon. Thos. McKay, who -was born in Edinburgh, Scotland. In September, -1874, he married Electa Blanche, -daughter of S. T. Willett of Chambly, -Quebec. Two sons have blessed the union. -In religion he is a Presbyterian, and in -politics a high tariff Liberal.

His mother, Mary Sinclair, -was born in Scotland. Her people had -settled in the township of Nelson, in the -County of Halton. The family removed -from Toronto township when the subject of -this sketch was only eight or nine years of -age to the County of Haldimand, where he had -some experience in the Log School House -education of the primitive settlements of that -County in the early 50’s. He afterwards -went to the Central School in Hamilton, the -late Dr. Sangster then being Superintendent -and Head Master. In due course, and working -against great disadvantages, he became -head boy of the public schools of Hamilton, -a position which he maintained until he -passed the matriculation examination of the -University of Toronto in 1859. As head boy -of the school, he with the second boy, was -selected to open the waterworks system of -the city of Hamilton in 1858. His course at -the University was a very successful one, -taking scholarships all the way through the -various years, and graduating in 1863 as the -highest honor graduate with the Prince of -Wales Prize, then given for general proficiency, -including honors at graduation, the -Silver Medals in Classics and Modern Languages, -and the prize in Oriental languages, -including Hebrew, Chaldee and Syriac. After -taking his B.A. degree, he commenced the -study of law in the office of the late Sir George -Burton in Hamilton, at the same time taking -the law course of the University, and receiving -the degree of LL.B. in 1869 with the gold -medal. One thing of note in connection -with General Gibson’s life is that he has -always endeavored to repay the educational -institutions from which he received his education. -For many years he was a member -of the Board of Education in Hamilton, and -was its Chairman for two years. During that -time the Collegiate Institute was brought into -prominence as one of the leading secondary -educational institutions of the country. He -served as a Senator of the University of -Toronto, being elected at the first election of -graduates in 1873 and re-elected in 1878 and -1883. He subsequently founded a general -proficiency scholarship for matriculation -candidates. When a student of the University -during the Trent affair, he joined the -University Rifles, being one of the first to -sign the roll of that company in 1860. He -has been in the Militia ever since, for now -nearly 59 years, and at the present time is -the senior officer in the Canadian Force -among all who are not following military life -as their regular occupation. In 1863, he -transferred to the 13th, and has served from -private up through all the ranks to the position -of commanding officer, which position -he held for 9 years, and at the present time -is the Honorary Colonel of that corps. He -was present at Ridgeway as a lieutenant. He -subsequently commanded the 15th Brigade, -having headquarters at Hamilton, and later -on at the beginning of the great war received -the rank of Brigadier-General. As a marksman -he always has had a very high reputation, -having been a member Canadian Wimbledon -teams in 1874, ’75, and ’79, being a frequent -prize winner, and taking the much coveted -Prince of Wales prize in the last-named year. -He took part in several of the early international -long range rifle contests with British, -Australian, and American rifle teams. In -1881 he commanded the team which defeated -the British team in the competition for the -Kolapore Cup. He was president for three -years of the Ontario Rifle Association, was -also President of the Canadian Military Rifle -League, and from 1893 for thirteen or fourteen -years was President of the Dominion Rifle -Association. In 1907 he again commanded -the Canadian rifle team at Bisley. He has -also been President of the Canadian Military -Institute, and was President of the Canadian -Red Cross Society from its original organization -throughout the South African War, and -subsequently for a period of about 14 years, -and has been throughout the recent great -war one of the most active members of the -Executive Board. He was for two years -President of the Hamilton St. Andrew’s -Society. From an early age he has been a -very prominent Freemason—was Grand -Master of the Masonic Grand Lodge of -Canada during the years 1892 and 1893, -being now the representative of the Grand -Lodge of England, and for nine years was -Sovereign Grand Commander of the Supreme -Council of the Scottish Rite Masons in -Canada. He has always taken a prominent -part in politics. As a young man he was -Secretary of the Hamilton Reform Association, -which position he held for many years. -He was first returned to the Legislature in -1879, representing Hamilton for a period of -19 years, and afterwards East Wellington for -7 years. He entered the Government as -Provincial Secretary in 1889, became Commissioner -of Crown Lands in 1896, and -Attorney-General in 1899. He was an -honorary A.D.C. to their Excellencies, Lord -Aberdeen and Lord Minto, when Governors-General, -and in 1897 was selected by the -Militia Department to proceed to England -in connection with the celebration of the -Queen’s Diamond Jubilee; was present -by invitation, at the coronations in Westminster -Abbey of the late King Edward VII, -and of the present King George V. He has -always taken a leading part at the Bar, and -was made a Queen’s Counsel in 1890, is a -Bencher of the Law Society of Upper Canada, -and as a young man was an examiner in the -Faculty of Law at Toronto University. In -1903 he received the honorary degree of -LL.D. from that institution, and subsequently -also from McMaster University. In 1908 -he became Lieut.-Governor of the Province -of Ontario, being the last to occupy the old -Government House on King Street West, -Toronto, continuing for over six years. -During his term, on the recommendation of -His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught, -then Governor-General of Canada, he was -created a Knight Commander of the Order -of St. Michael and St. George. As a -public man he shrank from prominence -in the public eye; he was most industrious -and faithful in the performance of any duties -he undertook to discharge. He had an -excellent training for many years under the -greatest of law makers this country has -ever produced, Sir Oliver Mowat. While a -private member of the Legislative Assembly -he was selected as Chairman of the Private -Bills Committee, which for fifteen years -he presided over with eminent ability, -fairness and impartiality. During the -short period when the license branch -was under his control some of the most -advanced measures of temperance legislation -were introduced by him, including the -local option law, the validity of which was -stoutly contested, but in the end affirmed by -the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. -Though not himself a practical sportsman, -almost immediately after entering the legislature -he led a movement for better protection -of game birds and fur-bearing animals, -first securing the abolition of spring shooting -and other improvements in the law, and -afterwards the appointment of a Royal Commission -followed by a thorough revision of -the game laws and the establishment of a -departmental branch, with a chief game -warden and other provincial wardens entrusted -with the enforcement of the laws -relating to game protection. While Provincial -Secretary he was always an industrious -legislator. The laws relating to Joint Stock -Companies were thoroughly revised, modernized, -and simplified by him. The old laws -relating to building societies and loan companies -were completely overhauled, and became -the present Loan Corporations Act. -It was at this time also that he undertook -to stem the tide or flood of benefit societies, -many of them of the fake order, which threatened -to inundate this Province—a subject -of legislation requiring at the time very -cautious and skilful handling, but which, -with the able assistance of Mr. J. H. Hunter, -M.A., was ultimately put on a very satisfactory -footing. One of the most important -laws of comparatively recent years owes to -him its existence, and has generally been referred -to as the “Gibson Act”—the Act relating -to neglected and dependent children—and -the establishment of the Children’s -Branch, with Mr. Kelso as its chief officer. -This law has been most beneficial in its operation, -and has been followed more or less -closely in most of the other Provinces. During -his comparatively short incumbency as Commissioner -of Crown Lands he introduced and -carried through the House the important -legislation prohibiting the exportation of saw -logs—a measure affecting very large interests -but meeting the entire approval of the public. -He also dealt with important changes in the -mining laws during a period of great mining -excitement in the Province. It is probably -not generally known that while Commissioner -of Crown Lands he introduced a short but -very important measure preventing any -absolute alienation by the Crown of Provincial -water powers, and providing for leasing same -for short renewable terms of years subject -to conditions in the public interest. It is -somewhat singular that a public man who -has often been unfairly criticized as a champion -of monopolies should never have been -credited with this act directly aimed against -and prohibitive of monopoly. In the matter -of forest preservation or reforesting, Mr. -Gibson aimed at carrying out a programme -which probably time would justify as the most -effective and productive policy possible. He -aimed at the selection and setting apart every -year a portion of the Crown domain unfit for -agricultural purposes as a timber growing -reserve. Many such sections in Northern -Ontario, which have been cut over or burnt -over, and now more or less covered over by new -growth, could be set apart and treated as territory -to be guarded as timber growing areas. -In the Eastern part of the Province certain -old limits were repurchased from the license -holders and so set apart, and again another -area in Western Ontario. The plan of year -after year reserving areas in this way would -in a generation or so result in well defined -sections of the Province producing a new -crop of timber which would not fail to become -an extremely valuable asset to posterity. -It was in Sir John Gibson’s time that the first -steps were taken for the establishment of the -Temagami Reserve very effectively carried -out by Mr. Davis, his successor. As Attorney-General -he had, of course, the responsibility -of legislation generally. The assessment laws -had been the subject of investigation and -report at the hands of two Royal Commissioners, -and amid the distressing conflict of -opinion on the various questions which arise -whenever this subject is touched, the difficulty -of framing a generally acceptable measure -seemed insuperable. Whatever may be -thought of the present act, Sir John Gibson’s -tact as a legislator was mainly instrumental -in having it passed through the House, and -probably as time has passed and the public -have become more and more familiar with -its provisions it may be considered to give -general satisfaction. The collection and revision -of Imperial Statutes in force in this -Province in the shape of a brief third volume -of the Revised Statutes carried out with the -aid of a committee of the judges has been a -boon to law students, and a great convenience -to the legal profession. (The foregoing facts -and observations regarding Sir John’s career -have been contributed by Mr. James Innes -Macintosh, who was for several years his -private secretary when a Minister of the -Crown.) He was one of the pioneers, along -with the late John Patterson and the late -John Moodie, in introducing Hydro-Electric -power and long distance transmission of same -in this country utilizing surplus water from -the Welland Canal, and transmitting the -power to Hamilton, where very soon many -of the industrial and electric railways -adopted the same, to the great advantage of -the companies. For many years he was -President of the Cataract Power Company. -He is a Director of the Canadian Bank of -Commerce, the Canada Life Assurance Company, -the Toronto General Trusts Corporation, -the Toronto Conservatory of Music, -the Homewood Retreat at Guelph, the Dominion -Power and Transmission Company, -the Canadian Westinghouse Company, and -several other industrial companies in Hamilton. -He was married first in 1869 to Emily -Annie, daughter of the late Rolph Birrell, of -London, who died in 1874; second, in 1876 -to Caroline, daughter of the late Senator -Adam Hope, who died in 1877; and third, on -May 18, 1881, to Elizabeth, daughter of the -late Judge Malloch, of Brockville. He had -six children, viz., John Gordon Gibson, who -died shortly after taking his B.A. degree at -the University of Toronto; Eugenia Elizabeth -Emily; Margaret Mary Stewart, wife of -Robert S. Waldie, of Toronto; Archibald Hope -Gibson, Barrister; Captain Colin W. G. -Gibson, of the Royal Fusiliers, who was twice -severely wounded; and Francis Malloch -Gibson, who went to the front as an officer -of the 48th Highlanders at the commencement -of the war and was killed in action near -Armentieres. Sir John’s manner is dignified -but affable, his style of speech clear and precise; -in his movements he is deliberate, but -with the elasticity of well-preserved middle -age, while his expression is kindly but alert, -with evidence of unlimited determination -and unmistakable inclination and power to -lead. When an active officer of the Militia -he was recognized by his fellow-officers as a -master of field manœuvres. The beautiful -family residence, “Ravenscliffe,” is delightfully -situated on the lower slope of the mountain, -looking down Ravenscliffe Avenue, -through a vista of stately elm trees.</p> - -<hr class='pbk'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='kennedy'></a></p> - -<div class='figcenter'> -<img src='images/kennedy.jpg' alt='' id='iid-0042' style='width:400px;height:auto;'/> -<p class='caption'>W.

Walter George</span></span> -(Quebec City), Treasurer of the Province of -Quebec, was born at Danby, in the County -of Drummond. He is the son of the Hon. -Senator William Mitchell, his mother’s -maiden name being Miss Dora Goddard. -His early education was matured at the Montreal -High School and at the Bishop’s College -school of Lennoxville. Thereafter he entered -McGill University as an undergraduate, -finally taking his degree of B.C.L. in 1901. -On being admitted to practice at the Bar, -he became connected with the law firm of -Greenshields, Greenshields & Heneker. Two -years after he became a prominent member -of the firm of Laflamme, Mitchell and Callaghan, -receiving his K.C. in 1912. In view of -his being chosen by the Lieutenant-Governor -to assume the duties of the Hon. P. S. G. -Mackenzie, who had died suddenly, he was -subsequently elected by acclamation as -representative of the constituency of Richmond, -a county which he continues to represent -as Member of the Provincial Parliament, -after a second election by acclamation. -Prior to his assuming the office of Provincial -Treasurer, Mr. Mitchell was in possession of -a large and lucrative practice in Montreal. -While actively engaged with his professional -duties, as a leading lawyer, he did not fail to -take an active interest in political affairs, -and came into public prominence in the administration -of the Montreal Reform Club. -Through his efforts in co-operation with his -associate members, new and attractive -quarters for that club were erected on Sherbrooke -Street; and, in 1913, he was chosen, -by way of reward for his active services, the -President of that flourishing institution, and -in the following year was re-elected to the -same office. From the date of the famous -Drummond-Arthabaska election contest in -1910, Mr. Mitchell became more and more -intimately identified with the political life -of the Eastern Townships and its various -electoral movements. During the winning -of the constituency of Drummond-Arthabaska -back to the Liberal interest in 1910, -he was associated with Dr. Beland, later -a prisoner of war in Germany, and was -acclaimed everywhere as an eloquent and -persuasive pleader in behalf of the naval -policy of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. In fact, in -1911, it was to a large extent through Mr. -Mitchell’s influence as an organizer, not to -speak of his father’s unbroken popularity as -a public man, and other influences, that the -constituency of Drummond-Arthabaska was -won over to the Liberal interest. As Provincial -Treasurer, Mr. Mitchell has made a -name for himself as a most successful financier, -taking a prominent rank almost immediately -as a parliamentary debater. Nor has -he failed to share in remedial legislation, -whenever such came up for consideration in -the Provincial Parliament. He has interested -himself particularly in modifying the -Quebec License Law, fathering amendments -to that law restricting the number of licenses, -increasing the license fees, prohibiting treating, -increasing the age limit, shortening the -hours of sale, and urging an enactment to -abolish the bars on the 1st of May, 1918, -with immediate sanction to the Minister of -Militia and Defence to declare any or all -districts throughout the Province of Quebec -“out of bounds” for soldiers and sailors. At -his instance also the Quebec Insurance Act -has been amended from time to time, so as -to give better protection to the public. One -of his most notable and highly patriotic acts -in parliament since the war in Europe began, -was his presentation of a Bill, asking authority -to subscribe out of the public revenues in -behalf of his native province a million of -dollars to the Canadian Patriotic Fund—a -proposal which met with an instant and unanimous -approval from both chambers. Under -his mature financial advice the Province of -Quebec has spent millions of dollars in constructing -and improving highways of nearly -every district. And yet so prudently have -the finances of the province been husbanded -under his judicious oversight, that the provincial -debt has virtually remained as easy -a burden on the people as it ever has been, -notwithstanding the large amounts spent -on the highways, and the large increase in -the grants to education, agriculture, and -public works. Altogether Mr. Mitchell has -won the highest credit as a parliamentarian -and a financier, enjoying the full confidence -of his colleagues and of many of his fellow -legislators, irrespective of party lines. He was -married on February the 4th, 1907, Mrs. -Mitchell’s maiden name having been Miss -Antonia Pelletier.

He received his education -in the Public and Grammar Schools of -that town and began business with the firm -of James Campbell & Son, at that time -extensive manufacturing stationers, and -publishers of Toronto. After six years’ -association with this firm he removed to -Winnipeg and subsequently engaged in the -wholesale stationery business as senior partner -in Parsons, Bell & Co., which afterwards -merged with the Consolidated Stationery -Co., Ltd., of which he was President for a -number of years. In 1882 Mr. Parsons -married Anne Kate Helliwell, daughter of -Rev. Thomas Lord Helliwell of Winnipeg, -and has three daughters, Mrs. Chas. A. -Withers, Mrs. Henry F. Gooderham, and -Mrs. Errol A. Hethrington, all of Toronto. -After sixteen years of successful business in -Winnipeg, Mr. Parsons was compelled to -leave the northern climate in the interest -of his health and returned to Toronto where -in 1906, along with others, he established -the extensive business of which he continues -the moving spirit. He has always taken an -active interest in religious, social and philanthropic -work and for many years has been -a director of the Methodist Union. Since -1900 he has been Chairman of the Ontario -Board of Directors, Canadian Fire Insurance -Co., and is a member of the Northern Ontario -Fire Relief Committee, and the Organization -of Resources Committee of the -Province of Ontario, also of the Ontario -Executive of the Bonne Entente at whose -meeting in the Chateau Frontenac, Quebec, -in 1916, he was one of the principal speakers -and put forward this three-plank platform: -First—We ought to live together in sincerity, -friendship and justice; Second—We ought -to strive for a cleaner public life; Third—We -ought to help maintain the integrity -and strength of our great Empire. But it -is in connection with his work in the Canadian -Manufacturers Association that Mr. -Parsons has come most prominently before -the public, for though naturally being far -from an aggressive man, when the burden of -office was laid upon him he realized his -responsibilities to the full and has frequently -from the platform, in the press and in action -given evidence of the reserve force that was -in him. He was elected for four successive -years (1911-1915) Chairman of the Transportation -Committee of the Association; -Second Vice-President in 1915, First Vice-President -in 1916, and President at the -Annual Meeting of the Association in Winnipeg -in 1917. He was Chairman in 1917 -of the Committee of Employers of Labor -for the Province of Ontario to secure men to -help in the harvest fields, an organization -responsible for the saving of many millions -in food stuffs. On assuming office as President -of the C.M.A. Mr. Parsons delivered -an inspiring inaugural address of a thoroughly -business character, but progressive, loyal, -ethical, liberal and humanitarian as well. -In 1918 he was appointed a representative -of the C.M.A. on the Federal Board for -the settlement of Labor disputes. Writing -of him on this occasion, “The Monetary -Times” says: “He is a capable, energetic -business man, with a frank and alert manner -that wins confidence. The welfare of the -Canadian Manufacturers Association is in -good hands under his care. He is a type of -Association President well able to smooth -out many of the difficulties between capital -and labor, having appreciation of the problems -met by both.” Mr. William Lewis -Edmonds writes at the same time in “Industrial -Canada”: “While Mr. Parsons is strong -as a business man, and particularly in the -quality of executive ability, that is not the -only direction in which his strength lies. -He is a strong man all the way round. He -is a man of strong opinions and particularly -on subjects that approach the ethical in -character, and having cultivated the habit -of looking at controversial subjects from the -other fellow’s perspective as well as his own, -it is not a difficult thing to persuade him to -change his attitude, provided the other -fellow is right and he is wrong, but when -once after carefully weighing the pros and -cons, he is persuaded that he is right he’ll -not surrender principles, although where -non-essentials are the issue he will readily -agree to a compromise. In judgment he is -sound, and in insight keen and quick. Although -not connected with either political -party, Mr. Parsons takes a keen interest in -public affairs, and practical movements -which have for their object a betterment of -conditions in state and society have his -warm, and in many instances, his active -sympathy.” Writing in the “Toronto Star -Weekly,” Arthur Hawkes says: “Mr. Parson’s -service in the Manufacturers Association -has been real service, and not a still hunt for -glory. In committee he is as cautious as -strong, and as strong as wise. He looks -often before he leaps and he can take a pretty -good leap—the fundamental condition of -which is that he shall have examined the -jumping-off place and surveyed the spot -where he intends to land. When he has -made up his mind he doesn’t change it, which -is because he is sound in judgment.” In -concluding his quite lengthy sketch and -referring particularly to Mr. Parsons’ political -platform he says: “This is a pretty -good creed. It is just like Parsons.

After living the life of a pioneer -farmer for twenty years, he founded “The -Farmer’s Advocate” of London in 1866 as -a means of assisting other settlers who were -continually coming to him for advice, and -it is through his long association with this -journal and its colleague, “The Farmer’s -Advocate and Home Journal” of Winnipeg -that the subject of this sketch became so -widely known. After receiving his early -education in the London schools, Mr. Weld -learned the printing business in a local shop -and completed his apprenticeship with a -short post-graduate engagement with a large -New York publishing house. Returning to -Canada, he was attracted by the West, -which was then opening up for settlers, and -he staked his claim in Saskatchewan, where -he “proved up” on a half-section in 1885. -The growth of “The Farmer’s Advocate” -then necessitated his return to London, -where he became business manager of the -publication until his father’s death on -January 3, 1891. He then became general -manager, and when the Wm. Weld Company, -Ltd., was organized and incorporated in -July of the same year, he acquired a controlling -interest in the firm, which he has since -held. The first issue of “The Farmer’s -Advocate” of Winnipeg appeared in 1890. -It was edited in the West, but a separate -company was not organized until July 31, -1905, when The Farmer’s Advocate of -Winnipeg, Ltd., was incorporated with Mr. -Weld as President. A building was erected -on Princess Street in that year, but it proved -inadequate to meet the ever-growing requirements -of the business, so it was sold -in 1911, and a five-story concrete, fire-proof -building was constructed at the corner of -Notre Dame and Langside Streets. In order -to keep the two publications inseparably -linked with practical and progressive farming, -as well as to provide means whereby the -editors might keep constantly in touch with -varying agricultural conditions, a farm was -purchased in the neighbourhood of London, -and, incidentally, a separated portion of this -is a part of the Weld homestead which has -always been owned by the family under the -original Crown grant.

In 1685, hundreds of -thousands of these Puritans went into exile, -going to Prussia, Holland, Switzerland, England, -Scotland, and America, and Mr. Butterworth’s -ancestors found a resting-place, a -place of safety, in England, where they remained -and industriously added to the wealth -of the country, and took part in the Peninsular -War at the beginning of the 19th century. -Being seafaring, enterprising, and -ambitious men, and with a desire to make -their mark in the new world, where they -would have large scope to exercise their -talents, they left the old country and arrived -at Port Hawkesbury, Nova Scotia, where, -eventually, they became builders and owners -of merchant ships and captains in the merchant -fleet, and married into United Empire -families. Tiring of seafaring life, and in -compliance with the wishes of the sons, and -at the suggestion of the mother, Mr. Butterworth, -Sr., sold out his shipping interests -and the valuable lands and wharves which -he owned at Port Hawkesbury, and with his -wife and family arrived in Ottawa, which was -then in its infancy, having been incorporated -just one year, previously. When they grew -up, Mr. Butterworth and his two brothers, -E. B. and C. A. Butterworth, following in -the ambitious footsteps of their ancestors, -not satisfied with their then existing opportunities -for advancement, left for the United -States, and engaged in business and met -with success. Their love for the British -Empire, however, was still dominant within -them, and they decided to sell out, return to -Canada, and make it their future home. In -1874, they entered into business in Ottawa -as hardware merchants and metal workers, -and later, in 1881, started in the coal business. -Eventually, C. A. and E. B. retired from the -coal business and continued in the hardware -business, while J. G. B., the subject of this -sketch, retired from both of these and remained -alone as the coal merchant, which -business he has carried on to this day most -successfully, and which to-day holds the lead -of all others. Mr. Butterworth has three -plants, with large storage capacity sufficient -to hold at any one time 25,000 tons, and -enabling him to constantly carry a heavy -stock of coal during the summer to provide -against delays in winter transportation and -during the winter season. Over $100,000 -is invested in these plants. In the severe -winter of 1917, had it not been for the provision -made by and the ability of Mr. Butterworth -to supply large quantities of coal, there -would have been great hardship in not only -Ottawa, but in Carleton Place, Perth, Almonte, -Arnprior, Renfrew, and many outside -places in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec, -to which points he was able to and did ship -thousands of tons of coal. He, in that terrible -winter, became the great provider of the -people of Ottawa and her surrounding neighbours -by supplying them with the coal they -needed. For 1918 he was equally prepared -to meet any emergency that might arise, but, -luckily, the winter was not of a nature so -severe as that of the previous year. In 1917, -in order to cope with all demands that were -likely to be made, Mr. Butterworth practically -took care of the coal trade. He took -the whole output of the Independent Coal -Mine in Pennsylvania, shipped the small -sizes to N.Y. and N.J. to the textile and -munitions factories, and the prepared sizes -into Canada. In so doing he secured large -quantities of coal which otherwise could not -have been obtained, and his foresight and -enterprise prevented a serious coal famine in -Ottawa and the other places before mentioned. -The name of John George Bissett Butterworth -will always be held high in gratitude -and esteem by the people of Ottawa and of -many other cities and towns in the Provinces -of Ontario and Quebec.

The responsible duties of -the office will be well discharged by one who -never failed in duty.” Brigadier-General -William St. Pierre Hughes, D.S.O., Superintendent -of Penitentiaries, and brother of -Major-General Sir Sam Hughes, was born -in Durham County, Ontario, June 2, 1863, -and is the son of John Hughes and Caroline -Laughlin. From both sides of his family he -inherited military tastes, his father being the -son of a surgeon-major in the Imperial army -who spent eighteen years in India, and his -mother the daughter of Colonel Laughlin of -the 10th Royal Irish Artillery and the granddaughter -of Colonel St. Pierre, one of the -most famous of Napoleon’s colonels. General -Hughes was educated entirely by his father -until his eleventh year, when he went to -Toronto where he remained six years. After -a year at home he went to Winnipeg, where -in 1885 he enlisted with the famous “Little -Black Devils.” During his stay in Winnipeg -he won the amateur championship of Manitoba -and the North-West as a one-mile foot -runner. After the Rebellion he returned to -Ontario, spending a year at college in Belleville; -then a year in Orillia where he played -lacrosse with the Orillia team when that -team won the championship of Ontario; then -to Cornwall, where he played with the famous -Cornwall lacrosse team during its years of -national triumph. In 1893, General Hughes -became Warden’s Secretary and Clerk of -Industries in the Kingston Penitentiary, taking -up what has become his life’s work. After -filling a number of different positions in -penitentiary work, during which he took a -deep interest in criminology, General Hughes -became Inspector of Penitentiaries in 1913. -With great earnestness he started to put into -effect many cherished plans for prison reform, -but the call of 1914 put an end for the time -to this work. During all the years of prison -work General Hughes has kept in close touch -with military affairs. Starting as lieutenant -in the old 14th Battalion of Kingston, he, in -course of time, became lieutenant-colonel -commanding it, and was also brigade-major of -the 7th Canadian Infantry Brigade. General -Hughes was in the West when war was declared, -and on his return in September, 1914, -hurried to Valcartier, but was then unable to -get a place in the 1st Contingent, which had -already been mobilized. He then returned -to Kingston and mobilized the famous 21st -Battalion. He commanded this battalion -continuously until July, 1916, when he was -promoted to the command of the 10th Canadian -Infantry Brigade, which he commanded -in France until the spring of 1917. He then -returned to England, where he commanded -the Canadian area at Crowborough until it -was taken over by the Imperial army. General -Hughes then became president of a -board for adjusting the financial differences -between the Imperial and Canadian authorities -as regards barrack damages, etc., and -succeeded in writing off over $225,000 of -charges made by Imperials against Canadians, -and also saving an amount of almost -$50,000 which was paid to Canadian Paymaster-General -by various units in settlement -of these charges. During his service in -France General Hughes was awarded the -D.S.O., and was twice mentioned in despatches. -Owing to a reorganization of the -Penitentiary Branch, General Hughes was -forced to return to Canada in the summer of -1918, and was appointed Superintendent of -Penitentiaries in April, 1919. Prominent relatives -of General Hughes, besides Major-General -Sir Sam Hughes, are Major John -Hughes and Dr. James L. Hughes, brothers. -February 5, 1900, General Hughes married -Jessie Williams, daughter of William Macleod, -of Cornwall, Ontario.

G.</span></span> (Ottawa, -Ont.), has been connected with the military -system of Canada since 1905. Except for -rather less than two years—between 1909 -and 1911—his service with it has been continuous, -and he has been intimately concerned -alike with the preparations which -were made for the Great War and with the -staff work at Headquarters during the course -of the war. A Cambridge University man, -he joined the Manchester Regiment in -1882, and served as Subaltern, Adjutant, -Company Commander and Second in Command; -in 1894 he passed the Staff College; -and in 1898 he began a long career on the -Staff. Early in 1899 he went to the War -Office to work in what ultimately became the -Mobilization Section, the organ of the War -Office which had a great deal to do, first, -with the rapid and efficient supply of troops -to South Africa, and afterwards with the -careful preparations which enabled the -regular army to show to such advantage in -France. In the War Office during this period -he served under Colonel (now Lieut.-General) -Sir Percy Lake. In 1904, General Lake -came to Canada to be the first Chief of the -General Staff, and in 1905 he brought Colonel -Gwatkin (who had been serving with his -regiment in South Africa) to Ottawa to -serve as Director of Operations and Staff -Duties—in other words, to be his principal -technical assistant. The reorganization of -the Canadian Militia which followed the -South African War was beginning. In the -years between 1904 and 1914 the Militia -force was remodelled, and a staff system was -founded which proved able to carry through -the work of raising and sending overseas -an army of half a million men. Colonel -Gwatkin’s services were so highly regarded -that the Minister of Militia specially asked -the War Office for an extension of his services, -and he remained in Canada, not for -the regulation three years, but for four. -After a period of staff service in England -his services were again requested by the -Canadian Government, and he came to -Canada early in 1911. At that time the -military authorities of the Empire had become -seriously apprehensive of war with -Germany, and Colonel Gwatkin’s work -largely comprised such measures of organization -for this emergency as were undertaken -in the circumstances. In particular he drew -up complete plans for the raising and despatch -of a contingent to England in the -event of a war in Europe in which Canada -might wish to participate. The plan drawn -up anticipated a large number of the points -which arose when the war actually came. -In November, 1913, he succeeded Major-General -C. J. MacKenzie as Chief of the General -Staff. He was filling this post when the -war came. The work done in the Militia -Department in preparation for such an -eventuality proved of the utmost service. -Cable censorship was established, harbours -were closed, dangerous points were guarded, -the transition from peace to a war which the -general public had not expected was made -with remarkable smoothness. When the -first contingent sailed General Gwatkin was -desired by the Government to stay at Militia -Headquarters to keep the machine working. -During the entire course of the war he performed -enormous labours. To recruit, give -preliminary training to and ship overseas -so large an army meant administrative ability -of a very high order and the discharge of -an immense amount of thankless labour. -He has done his work to the high satisfaction -of the Government of Canada, whose principal -military adviser he has been. It -showed its appreciation of his services by -insisting on retaining him, though the Imperial -Government repeatedly expressed a -desire to recall him for service in Great -Britain or France. The details of his career -are as follows:—Major-General Willoughby -Garnons Gwatkin, C.B., C.M.G., born -August 11, 1859; was appointed Lieutenant -Manchester Regiment May 10, 1882; Adjutant, -Manchester Regiment, April 18, 1888, -to April 17, 1892; Captain, Manchester -Regiment, January 17, 1890; Major, Manchester -Regiment, April 7, 1900; Brevet Lieut.-Colonel, -January 6, 1904; Brevet Colonel -November 20, 1907; Major-General, October -21, 1914.

Under Mayor -Willis’s advice, the town of Whitby was the -first municipality in Ontario to avail itself -of these proposals by extending municipal -support to a hydro-electric radial railway -linking up Toronto with the towns of Whitby, -Markham and Port Perry; and it is expected -that the road when constructed and put in -operation will do much for the entire section -immediately east of Toronto. Another local -enterprise which was in the main due to Mr. -Willis’s progressive spirit was the installing -of a sewerage system, which was essential to -the establishment near the town of Whitby -of a great provincial hospital for the insane, -which, during the war was turned over to the -military authorities, and was the largest -soldiers’ hospital in the Dominion of Canada. -When the plans which Mr. Willis has done -so much to promote are carried out, Whitby -will have a close suburban connection by -electric railway with Toronto, and it is expected -will become an important residential -centre for the wealthier families of that city. -When the late Major Harper, who had formerly -served as police magistrate, passed -away in 1918, the Attorney-General of -Ontario appointed Mr. Willis his successor; -and the choice was applauded not merely -locally, but in wider circles where the activities -of Mr. Willis for the development of -Whitby had rendered his name familiar. -He is recognized as one of the most forceful -and progressive municipal authorities in -Canada. In his younger days he took an -active interest in outdoor sports, such as foot -racing, cricket, baseball, and was secretary -of the Whitby Curling Club for many years, -and took part as skip in many Tankard and -friendly matches. He has been from his -youth a reader, and is one of the best posted -men on general and scientific subjects in his -native town. It has been his policy to -strongly advocate any movement that would -be for the good and uplifting of the people -as a whole; and he has often been heard to -say: “I wish I could do some lasting good for -my fellow man, and leave the world a little -better than I found it. If I can do no permanent -and lasting good, I feel that I have -lived in vain.”</p> - -<hr class='pbk'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='mcinenly'></a></p> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='shortly'></a></p> - -<div class='figcenter'> -<img src='images/shortmcin.jpg' alt='' id='iid-0045' style='width:400px;height:auto;'/> -<p class='caption'><span class='sc'>Orville B.

He -was born on March 31, 1859, at Eganville, -Ont., and is of Irish descent. He was educated -at Iroquois and Morrisburg High -Schools in the St. Lawrence Valley. He early -became identified with journalism, and as -editor and manager of the Brockville “Recorder,” -made it one of the best known -provincial papers in the Dominion. An -earlier newspaper enterprise of his was the -Morrisburg “Herald,” which he successfully -conducted for eleven years; and he was for -a short time associate editor of the Ottawa -“Free Press.” As a young man, Mr. Graham -became identified with the organization of -the Liberal party in his district, and was in -great demand as a platform speaker. Entry -into public life was a logical outcome of his -career as a moulder of public opinion. -During his residence in Morrisburg, Ont., he -was Reeve of the village and a member of -the County Council, and in 1894 the Liberals -nominated him for the riding of Dundas -against no less an opponent than J. P. -Whitney, afterwards Prime Minister of -Ontario. At the general elections for the -Legislature in 1898 he was Liberal candidate -for Brockville, and was more successful, -securing election by a substantial majority. -He at once achieved a prominent position -in the Legislature owing to his wit and skill -as a debater. Those were the days when Mr. -Whitney was making his long and ultimately -successful fight for the overthrow of the Ross -Government, and the former contestants in -the riding of Dundas frequently crossed -swords in debate. At the Legislative -elections in 1902, Mr. Graham was re-elected -for Brockville, though his party suffered -heavy losses elsewhere, and on November 25, -1904, on the resignation of the late Hon. -J. R. Stratton from the post of Provincial -Secretary, he was called to the cabinet as his -successor. At the general elections of the -ensuing winter he was again returned for -Brockville, but the Ross Government, of -which he was a member, was defeated. On -January 25, 1907, the Liberal caucus elected -him leader of His Majesty’s loyal opposition, -but he served in that capacity for only one -session of the Legislature. In August of -1907, Sir Wilfrid Laurier induced him to -abandon the provincial field, and offered him -the portfolio of Railways and Canals in the -Federal cabinet. He was sworn in as a member -of the Privy Council on August 29, and -on September 18, 1907, was elected by acclamation -to the House of Commons for the -Federal riding of Brockville. He continued -as Minister of Railways for four years, and -took an active part in the organization of his -party in Ontario. In September, 1911, the -Laurier administration was defeated at the -polls. Mr. Graham was elected in a by-election -in South Renfrew, and for the next -six years continued to sit in opposition as the -desk-mate of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. He did not -seek re-election at the general elections of -1917, but has retained active connection with -the Liberal party, and in many quarters his -name was urged as the fitting successor of -Sir Wilfrid Laurier in the party leadership. -In addition to his journalistic and political -activities, Mr. Graham is widely known in -connection with fraternal insurance organizations. -He was Grand Master of the Ancient -Order of United Workmen for two years, and -for a considerable period a member of the -Finance Committee of that body.

Lieutenant-Colonel Leonard -has had a wide experience in several branches -of his chosen profession of engineering, having -occupied positions of increasing importance -in railroad, hydro-electric, and mining development. -After completing his education -in 1883, he took service with the Canadian -Pacific Railway as instrumentman on surveys -and resident engineer on construction of the -Lake Superior Division. At the outbreak of -the North-West Rebellion in 1885 he was -appointed Staff Officer of Transport, and -served in other capacities during the uprising. -After the Rebellion he re-entered -the service of the Canadian Pacific as engineer -of surveys and construction in Manitoba -and Ontario. From 1886 until 1890, he was -chief engineer of the Cumberland Railway -and Coal Co., in Nova Scotia. 1890-1891 he -was again with the Canadian Pacific Railway -on surveys of important branch lines in -Ontario, Quebec, and British Columbia. In -1891-92 he was engaged in railway contracting. -In 1892-93 he was in charge of the -construction of the first hydro-electric development -at Niagara Falls, Ont., for -the Park and River Railway Co. In -1893-94 he was engineer-in-charge of railway -surveys for the Canadian Pacific Railway. -From 1895 until 1899 he was chief engineer -and manager of construction of the St. -Lawrence and Adirondack Railway, and of -the Montreal and Ottawa Short Line (C.P.R.) -respectively, and consulting engineer for the -Canadian Rutland Railway. His next step -was again in the field of mining engineering, -being engaged as engineer with the Lake -Superior Corporation in developing their iron -and nickel mines in the Sudbury and Michipicoten -districts. In 1900, he returned to -railroading as chief engineer and manager of -construction of the Cape Breton Railway. -From 1902 to 1904, he was engineer in charge -of the construction of a hydro-electric plant -at DeCew Falls, near St. Catharines, for the -Hamilton Cataract Power Co., and in 1905-06 -he was engaged in similar work at Kakabeka -Falls, near Fort William, for the Kaministiquia -Power Co. In 1905, when silver was -first discovered in Northern Ontario, Colonel -Leonard was one of the first prospectors in -the Cobalt district and staked the Buffalo -mine, and in the following year he acquired -a controlling interest in the Coniagas mine, -and promoted the Coniagas Mines, Ltd., of -which he is President. This mine has been -one of the largest and most consistent producers -of silver ore in the rich Cobalt district, -and during its ten years of operation has -produced 25,000,000 ounces of silver, and is -still one of the few silver-producing mines of -Canada. In 1908 a subsidiary company—the -Coniagas Reduction Co., Ltd., was formed -primarily for the purpose of treating ore from -the Coniagas mine, but a large custom trade -has also been developed in the smelting and -reduction of cobalt ores for the production -of silver and lesser products. In 1911, -Lieutenant-Colonel Leonard was selected by -the Dominion Government for the position -of Chairman of the National Transcontinental -Railway Commission at Ottawa, -with jurisdiction over the construction of the -Government Railway from Moncton, N.B., -to Winnipeg. This position he occupied, at -much personal sacrifice, until the practical -completion of the railway in 1914. Next -to the mining industry, Colonel Leonard’s -principal interest would appear to lie in the -direction of the steel business, as his name -appears on the directorate of several industries -engaged in the manufacture of steel and steel -products. He has recently promoted the -organization of a new steel company, under -the name of Electric Steel and Engineering -Ltd., which is an amalgamation of several -engineering enterprises in which he is interested, -and whose different lines of manufacture -he found could be co-ordinated to -advantage. He is also a Director of the -Toronto General Trusts Corporation. It -may be said here that he is one of those men -of business who are not content to be Directors -in name only, but who believe in the -principle that a Director should take a part -in the actual direction of the enterprises -with which he permits his name to become -identified, and in conformity with this rule -he has consistently declined to accept office -as Director of commercial enterprises when -he felt he was not in a position to give the -necessary time and attention to the affairs -of the business. Colonel Leonard has -always taken a keen interest in the welfare -and advancement of the engineering profession, -and is an active member and past -vice-president of the Canadian Society of -Civil Engineers and the Canadian Mining -Institute; President Engineering Institute of -Canada, 1919-20. He has always been the -friend of the young engineer, and ever ready to -lend a hand in helping him along the road to success. -He is also a past corresponding member -of the Council of the Institute of Mining and -Metallurgy, London, England, and a member -of the American Institute of Mining Engineers. -Member Institution of Civil Engineers, -London, England. In spite of his -many business activities, he finds time -to devote to educational interests, and -is a close student of all questions -involving the well-being and good government -of the State. He is a true Imperialist -and advocate of closer unity between the -component parts of the Empire; and any -movement which promises to assist in attaining -this end has his moral and financial support. -He is a member of the Board of Governors -of the University of Toronto; the Kingston -School of Mining; Wycliffe College, Toronto; -and Ridley College, St. Catharines, Ont. -He has recently established scholarships -under “The Leonard Foundation” in several -of these Institutions to assist in the education -and support of sons of clergymen, -school teachers and officers and men of the -Canadian and Imperial army and navy who -require assistance in order to complete their -education. His other benefactions are widely -distributed and unheralded, and it is safe to -say that few appeals on behalf of deserving -objects are made to him in vain. A characteristic -which strikes one forcibly is his -ability to quickly analyse and grasp the -essentials of things, and this faculty enables -him to get through a large amount of work -in a limited time, and also to readily appreciate -the merits or demerits of things, -whether in business, politics or the various -public movements with which he may be -asked to become identified.

He was born at -the city of Quebec on October 30, 1865, the -son of the late George Maclean Rose and his -wife, Margaret Levack Manson, both natives -of Caithness, Scotland. Sir Oliver Mowat, -the famous Liberal statesman, who was for -nearly a quarter of a century Prime Minister -of Ontario, and held other very important -public offices, was a cousin of the late Mrs. -Rose. The subject of this sketch was -educated at the Model School and the -Wellesley School, Toronto, and later took a -course at the Ontario Agricultural College, -Guelph, with a view to embarking in a -career of scientific agriculture, a project -subsequently abandoned. He began his -business career with the Williams, Greene -& Rome Company, Ltd., manufacturers of -men’s wear at Kitchener (then Berlin), Ont., -and became secretary and a director of the -company. Severing connection with the -enterprise, he went to New York, and -was engaged in business there for ten -years, returning to Canada in 1902 to join -the Hunter-Rose Company, established many -years previously by his father. He acted as -secretary of the company for two years, and -in 1904 became President and Manager, the -position he holds to-day. The Hunter-Rose -Company is one of the historic commercial -concerns of Canada. Its founder, the late -George Maclean Rose, was a native of Wick, -Caithness, who, as a young man in Scotland -acquired complete familiarity with every -phase of the printing and publishing business. -In the middle fifties he came to -Canada, and settled in Montreal, but in -1857 went to London, Ont., and in company -with the late Hamilton Hunter established -the printing firm of Hunter & Rose. This -partnership was, however, short-lived, and -in 1859, Mr. Rose joined forces with the -late Samuel Thompson, of Toronto, who had -received the contract to execute the printing -for the parliament of Canada. This necessitated -removal to Quebec, at that time capital -of Canada. It shortly became necessary -for Mr. Thompson to retire from business, -and to carry on the work of government -printing Mr. Rose formed the firm of Hunter-Rose -& Company, in the ancient capital, -taking into partnership Robert Hunter, -a practical accountant. The completion -of the parliament buildings at Ottawa -in 1865 and the establishment of the -government there, necessitated removal -to that city, which remained the headquarters -of the firm for several years. Confederation, -in the meantime, having become -an established fact, Hon. John Sandfield -Macdonald, the first Premier of Ontario, induced -Mr. Rose to establish a branch in -Toronto, to take charge of the provincial -printing. In 1871, Mr. Rose came to -Toronto to reside permanently, and since -that time the name Hunter-Rose & Company -has been identified with the commercial life -of Toronto. In 1877, Mr. Robert Hunter -died, and Mr. Rose became sole proprietor. -The firm was incorporated under its present -name in 1895. Government printing ceased -to be the staple of its business many years -ago, and book publishing became a very -important part of its activities. From its -plant have been issued many reprints of the -leading authors of the past and present -century. Incidentally, it may be mentioned -that the first volume of “Representative -Canadians,” edited by the late George Maclean -Rose, was published in 1886. The -present head of the company, who has carried -on the historic traditions of the firm, is a -member of the Canadian Manufacturers -Association and of the Toronto Board of -Trade. As a young man, he took a deep -interest in military matters, and was a -Lieutenant in the 48th Highlanders of -Toronto, when that regiment was first -established. He was also a lacrosse enthusiast, -and played with the old Ontarios of -Toronto and the Crescents of Brooklyn, -N.Y. His present recreation is golf, and he -is a member of the Ontario Club, the Simcoe -Club, the Lakeview Golf Club, and the -Ontario Jockey Club.

C. Blair, Inspector of -Customs, Ottawa, and Grace Ewart Blair. -He received his education in the common -schools of Truro, and was a commercial -traveller when he enlisted at Saskatoon as a -private on the outbreak of the war. He -was married early in 1916 to Dulcie, daughter -of Captain Brooks of the Indian Army, and -Mrs. Brooks, and is survived by one son, -James K. Blair, whom he never saw. After -enlisting, he trained with the 28th Battalion -in Winnipeg, and on receiving a commission -in February, 1915, joined the 46th Battalion -at Moose Jaw, and left for England with a -draft from the battalion in July, 1915. He -qualified at Hythe as a musketry instructor, -and was attached in that capacity to the -32nd Reserve Battalion, where he served for -one year. He went to France on August -2, 1916, where he joined the 2nd Canadian -Entrenching Battalion, and then went to his -old battalion the 28th. The following extract -from a letter written by the Commanding -officer of the 28th is a tribute to Lieutenant -Blair’s military abilities:—“Poor Jimmie -Blair never had a chance to do more than -show he had the grit to stick the worst the -Boche could do. He joined us when we -were on our way south, and fitted easily into -the very happy family our mess then was. -He did what he had to do well, and gave -entire satisfaction. As our Battalion was -then in a high state of efficiency, that is a -good recommendation to any officer. In the -big attack of September 15, we only took in -half our officers, and Lieutenant Blair was -left out, so he did not get the chance which -two of the officers of his company got, and -which resulted in the award to them of the -M.C. We went in again on September 24-25, -and Blair’s platoon was in the centre, and -was subjected to very severe shelling during -all of which he carried himself coolly and -bravely, and came through in good shape. -After a couple of days back we went in again -on another sector to hold. Blair’s company -was in Kenora trench, just where it joins -Regina trench, of which so much has been -said in the papers. This was really a communication -trench, but had to be held on -account of the command it gave us for future -operations. It was, however, badly enfiladed, -and we had practically all our casualties -there. The battalion we relieved had -just captured it, and it was subjected to a -good deal of shell fire, and it was during one -of these poor Blair was killed by a small -shell which landed in the bay in which he -was posted. I gave orders that his body be -brought out for burial, but a heavy rain and -resulting mud, together with the exhausted -condition of our men, made this impossible. -He was, therefore, given a soldier’s grave near -where he fell, and on ground which should be -considered sacred to Canadians, as many of -our officers and men had fallen, and have -fallen since, before Regina trench was finally -captured. He died, therefore, as so many -have, just ”holding the line,“ nothing -spectacular; just a matter of duty well and -bravely done under very trying circumstances. -He gave promise of doing -well, but he was not given the opportunity -which the real attack gives. His -people, however, will have the satisfaction of -knowing that he did his duty well, bore -himself bravely in the face of fire, and died -like a soldier.” Another officer friend. -Captain Quinan, writes:—“I well remember -Jim when he left England for France, as full -of spirits as old Allan Richardson before him, -who, too, has been killed. Jim was full of -life, and only asked for a chance to help to -avenge his chum. He will, I assure you, -always remain in my memory as ‘Jim,’ a -very fine and gallant gentleman.” He was a -Presbyterian and a Liberal Conservative. -Lieutenant Blair was very proud of the -Canadians, and in a letter to his parents, said;—“The -Canadians have no black marks -against them, and do not intend to have.” -He had a high reputation both as an instructor -and as a soldier. One of Lieutenant -Blair’s ancestors, Captain William Blair, -fought at the siege of Louisburg in 1745, and -his father joined the militia.</p> - -<hr class='tbk611'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='bell1'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Bell, Clarence A.

The son of a -farmer, he was educated at the local schools -and soon developed great capacity as a -student, and decided to put himself through -for the legal profession, graduating from Osgoode -Hall, Toronto. He was called to the -Bar in 1890, and commenced the practice of -law as a barrister at Sarnia, Ont., eventually -becoming head of the firm of H. Le Sueur and -McKinley of that place, and was created a -K.C. in 1908. He soon became active with -the Conservative party, and in 1896 became -the candidate of that party for the House of -Commons in West Lambton against the late -Justice Lister, and was defeated. His party -still had confidence in him, and in 1900 he -was again nominated for the Federal House -and again defeated, West Lambton always -having been a great Liberal stronghold. Two -years later, in 1902, Mr. Whitney, then -leader of the Opposition in Ontario, in looking -for a strong man to help him in Western -Ontario, prevailed upon Mr. Hanna to run -for the Provincial Legislature and undertake -the work of organizing Western Ontario. He -accepted, made an amazing turnover in -that portion of the Liberal stamping grounds, -was elected, and came to Toronto in 1905. -When the Conservative government came -into power, Mr. Whitney invited him to -become one of his cabinet, and he chose the -portfolio of Provincial Secretary, as in this -position his duties would neither come in -contact or conflict with the position he held -as chief legal adviser to the largest oil corporation -in Canada. His public life was -free from reproach of mixing up private interests -and friendships with his public duties, -and as a legal practitioner an extraordinary -fact is recorded of him: that while representing -one of the most important corporations in -the country, no case he had to handle ever -went into court; he had a singular and commendable -theory that it was the duty of a -lawyer to keep his clients out of court. -He was elected again to the Ontario Legislature -in 1908 and 1911, and appointed a member -of the Inter-Provincial Conference held -at Ottawa in 1910. His desire for a rest and -to complete his great work in connection with -his pet hobby of prison reform led him to -decline a portfolio when the Hearst government -was formed, although he remained in -the cabinet as minister without portfolio; and -in connection with his services as a public -servant in Ontario, it may be said that, -though not a prohibitionist by conviction, he -was the most efficient administrator of the -liquor license system that this country has -ever known. He created the machinery for -the administration of the prohibition law, -which has proved as effective as was possible. -His natural taste for politics did not die out -on his retirement from office, and he became -one of Sir Robert Borden’s most trusted -private advisers on public policy. He perfected -a system of prison reform which, perhaps, -is the most sensible and humane prison -system in the world; in fact, his ten years or -more of service given to the Province of -Ontario as administrator of its public charities, -its license laws, its prisons, asylums, and -other institutions, constitute a record so -progressive and enlightened that the full -value of his services will long continue to -be recognized by sociologists with a habit -for research. In 1917, Sir Robert Borden -induced him to accept the post of Food -Controller of Canada; and Mr. Hanna at -once applied himself to the task of organizing -that department, making his single aim the -increase of production and the conserving of -foodstuffs in order to ensure a steady supply -to the soldiers in the field and the civilian -populations of Britain, France and Italy. -He encountered great difficulties owing to -the misapprehension of the public, which -demanded a reduction of prices, a measure -that, by increasing consumption, would have -defeated the above-named object. He however, -refused to be moved by popular clamor, -and in co-operation with Mr. H. H. Hoover -rendered great service toward relieving the -overseas populations of the danger of starvation. -His exertions told on his physique, -and early in 1918 he resigned this office, leaving -it well organized for his successor. On the -retirement of Mr. Walter C. Teagle from the -post of President of the Imperial Oil Company -to become President of the Standard Oil -Company of New Jersey, Mr. Hanna was -elected his successor. In that capacity, he, -in December, 1918, introduced the Industrial -Relationship plan in all the plants of the -Company from coast to coast, and also a -series of sickness, death and insurance benefits -for workmen. Grief at the death of his only -son, Flight-Lieutenant Neil Hanna, who was -killed by accident in Italy in November, 1918, -a few days after the signing of the armistice, -undermined his health, and on March 20, -1919, he died suddenly while on a vacation -in Georgia. When he was borne to his last -resting-place at Sarnia, his funeral was attended -by public men from all parts of Canada -and many sections of the United States. The -late Mr. Hanna was twice married: first to -Jean J. Neil, who died in 1891, leaving one -son, the late Neil Hanna; and secondly to -Maud McAdams, by whom he had two daughters. -In religion he was a Methodist, and a -member of many important clubs and philanthropic -organizations.</p> - -<hr class='tbk637'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='gale2'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Gale, Robert Henry</span></span>, one of the leading -public men of Vancouver, of which city he -has been a resident for nearly a decade, is -a native of the city of Quebec.

Less than five years ago he entered -municipal politics, and was elected -alderman for 1916 and 1917. His services -during his comparatively brief term on the -City Council made him so widely popular -that his friends urged him to run for Mayor -in 1918. He accepted the nomination, and -in January of that year was elected over the -retiring mayor, Mr. Malcolm McBeath, who -had sought re-election, by a majority of 300, -the largest ever given to a mayoralty aspirant -in the history of Vancouver. In January, -1919, he was re-elected by acclamation, it -being generally conceded that it would be -futile for any rival to contest the office with -him. In April of 1919, the provincial government -of which Hon. John Oliver is the head -appointed him to the newly-created office -of Public Utilities Commissioner for British -Columbia. By the tax-paying public, the -appointment was considered an admirable -one, because of the high capacity Mr. Gale -had revealed as a municipal administrator. -The Great War Veterans’ Association, however, -made a vigorous protest on the ground -that all new offices within the gift of the -government should go to returned soldiers. -The Oliver administration deemed it necessary -to yield to the agitation, and cancelled the -appointment of Mr. Gale, accepting the -nominee of the G.W.V.A., Lieutenant-Colonel -Retallick, a civil engineer by profession, who -had rendered excellent service overseas. -Under the circumstances, the cancellation of -the appointment was in no sense a reflection -on the character or capacity of Mr. Gale. -In politics the latter is a Liberal, but has -never sought election as a political candidate. -During the general strike that was started -in Vancouver during the early summer of -1919 as an outgrowth of a general strike at -Winnipeg and other Western towns, Mr. -Gale showed great tact and firmness in handling -a very difficult situation, so that the -attempt to disorganize municipal government -and upset the present economic system was of -comparatively brief duration.</p> - -<hr class='tbk638'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='elso'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Elson, John <a id='melbourne'></a>Melbourne</span></span> (St. Catharines, -Ont.), was born in Byron, Ont., Dec. 25th, -1880.

He has been especially identified with -the history of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, -of which institution he was a trusted -officer for over forty years. He was born at -Dundas, Ont., on September 30, 1851, the -son of William and Alison (Sanderson) Gill, -both his parents being of Scottish Border -origin. He was educated at Upper Canada -College, Toronto, and entered the service of -the Bank of Commerce at the age of -nineteen. This was in 1870, and the Bank -was but three years old. In its expansion -during the next few years Mr. Gill actively -participated; his promotions were rapid, and -in 1874 he was appointed manager of the Galt, -Ont., branch. In 1876 he was transferred -to the Ottawa branch, which was regarded as -one of the most important in the Bank of -Commerce chain of agencies. In 1880 he -was appointed an Inspector of the Bank and -retained that position until 1887 when he -was appointed Manager of the Ottawa -branch, which had attained a very important -position in the financial life of the capital. -Under his regime it attained a wide expansion -of business and he continued to direct its -affairs until 1911, when he retired on pension -after forty-one years’ service. During his -career with the Bank of Commerce he -proved himself not only a practical banker -with a complete understanding of the -needs of the business community, but an -able thinker and essayist on financial questions. -Among his publications was one on -the subject of Post Office Savings Banks reprinted -in the “Canadian Banker’s Journal” -for the use of the United States Currency -Commission. Since his retirement from active -business he has lent his services and influence -to the promotion of patriotic and other -objects of public welfare, and during the late -war was Vice-President of the Executive of -the Ottawa branch of the Canadian Patriotic -Fund. He is also a Life Governor and Vice-President -of St. Luke’s Hospital in that -city, and in June, 1916, was appointed -a member of the Military Hospitals -Commission.

At an early age he joined the 29th -Battalion, and responded to the call to arms -for the Fenian raid. When the first Riel -rebellion broke out he joined the Red River -Expedition under General Sir Garnet Wolseley -(afterwards British Commander-in-Chief -Earl Wolseley), serving as a sergeant. On -returning he rejoined the 29th Battalion as -sergeant-major. In his later teens and -early twenties he had quite a local -reputation as a fine lacrosse player and fast -runner. He had always been a great -reader and taken an interest in politics, -and in 1873 left the woollen business to become -a reporter on the Guelph “Herald,” -soon after being engaged as editor of the -Orangeville “Sun.” He next edited the -Stratford “Herald,” then the Guelph -“Herald.” In 1878 he came to Toronto -as editor and joint publisher of “The -National,” making it an ardent advocate -of the national policy, which the -late Sir John A. Macdonald had adopted -as his platform after having been urgently -pressed to do so by a deputation consisting -of the late Hon. Isaac Buchannan of Hamilton -the late William Wallace, M.P. for Simcoe, -the late John Maclean (father of W. F. -Maclean, M.P. of the “World”), the late -Thomas Cowan of Galt, the late W. H. Fraser -and Mr. Wright. During the election campaign, -he wrote many articles in the “National” -that were extensively quoted by the -Conservative press. Shortly after his return -to power, Sir John A. Macdonald wrote Mr. -Wright a letter in his own hand, in which he -said:—“I wish to thank you most sincerely -for your splendid work in the campaign which -has just ended so satisfactorily. Your -speeches and writings did more, I believe, -than anything else to convert the people to -protection. I only had the good fortune -to hear you once—in the amphitheatre—but -I was then struck with your wonderful -grasp of the question and the extraordinary -fund of information you possessed, and no -less struck with the admirable way in which -you marshalled your facts and presented -your arguments. I hope to be able to express -my gratitude to you in a more substantial -way, and will be delighted if you -will give me an opportunity to do so.” Mr. -Wright returned to Guelph in 1879 as editor -and joint publisher of the “Herald.” The -proposed Government agreement for the -building of the Canadian Pacific Railway did -not meet with Mr. Wright’s approval, and, -as the “Herald” had always been a Conservative -paper, he gave up his interest in it, and -wrote a series of articles published in the -“Mercury,” advocating its being built and -owned by the Government and paid for by -a national currency—not notes or promises -to pay, but bills of different denominations, -reading “Legal tender for all debts, public -and private.” He called a meeting to explain -his plan in Guelph city hall, which -was packed. At the conclusion of his address -he moved a resolution calling on the Government -to adopt the plan. On sitting down, -the late Mr. Donald Guthrie—father of Hon. -Hugh Guthrie, and at that time member of -the legislature—arose and said that he had -attended for the purpose of opposing the -scheme, but Mr. Wright’s explanation had so -clearly demonstrated its feasibility and incalculable -value that he was converted to it, -and had much pleasure in seconding the -resolution. On those in favour being asked -to raise their hands, the audience, with the -exception of one man, rose to their feet and -cheered for several minutes. In thanking the -audience for their almost unanimous endorsation -of this plan, Mr. Wright declared -that the one exception was an unlooked-for -further compliment. For his independent -thought and action the “Mail” undertook -to read Mr. Wright “out of the -party.” Sir John A. Macdonald wrote Mr. -Wright, repudiating its assumed authority, -recognized his right to personal opinion, -good standing as a Conservative, and assured -him of his personal friendship, and continuing -said: “I have read a report of your speech -at Guelph, and, while I am sorry you saw -occasion to make it, I confess I was struck -with the plan you outline for the building -of the railway. Possibly, under different -conditions it might be practicable, but -do not think it could be carried out now.” -His ideas, however, were over a generation in -advance of the people’s desire for public -ownership, and, as a consequence private -capitalists draw some $40,000,000 in bond -interest and dividends yearly, besides adding -large sums to reserve, which the people pay; -while the people are out a huge land and money -bonus, have neither the national railway nor -a national currency, but instead a huge -octopus of capitalists that dominates our -legislation and is an ever-watchful and valiant -defender of “vested rights”—whether rightly -or wrongly obtained. Mr. Wright was invited -to speak at the convention of the U.S. -Greenbackers in Chicago in 1880, and accepted, -as well as during the subsequent -campaign. He returned to Toronto in 1881, -and became editorial writer on the “World.” -The following year he became Secretary of -the Canadian Manufacturers Association, -continuing till 1886, when, owing to the lines -of cleavage between capital and labor becoming -marked, he resigned and established -the “Labor Reformer,” the first paper in -Canada to advocate public ownership and a -workmen’s compensation act. While secretary -of the Canadian Manufacturers Association -he drafted a factory act which he urged -the Dominion Government to pass, providing -equal protection and conditions to the -workers in all provinces, as well as for manufacturers -against unequal labor conditions. -This the Government failed to adopt. The -draft, however, was made the basis of the -Factory Act passed by the Ontario Government -shortly after; but this, of course, could -give no protection to the Ontario manufacturer -(and indirectly to the workers as -well) against the longer hours and lower labor -conditions obtaining in the Province of -Quebec. In 1886, he was appointed Dominion -Government agent for the Antwerp and -the Indian and Colonial Exhibitions, and -acted as one of four commissioners representing -Canada in London at the latter. In -1887, he represented Toronto District -Assembly at the General Assembly of the -Knights of Labor, and was the first Canadian -elected member of the General Executive -Board, and immediately after was appointed -editor of the “Journal of the Knights of -Labor,” Philadelphia, official organ of the -order, continuing to hold both positions till -1892, when he removed to New York as -editor of “The Craftsman.” In 1896, he was -appointed by the Laurier Government special -commissioner to investigate and report on -the sweating system in Canada, and was -subsequently asked by that Government to -investigate and report on the Japanese -difficulties in British Columbia, but was unable -to accept. From 1898 to 1904, he was -organizer of the Conservative party in Ontario, -engaging in three campaigns, being in -charge of the campaign that resulted in -Sir James Whitney becoming Premier. For -a number of years he was president of the -Canadian Public Ownership League, which -did valuable work in educating the public as -to the advantages of the idea now so firmly -rooted in the Province of Ontario. He was -a candidate for the Ontario Legislature in -West Toronto, on the public ownership platform -in 1908, but was defeated in the three-cornered -contest. In 1910-11, he spent -about eight months in Britain writing and -speaking in the interest of Imperial preferential -trade. On the Ontario Government in -1914 constituting a commission to put in -operation the Workmen’s Compensation Act, -Mr. Wright was appointed Vice-Chairman -of the Board, his appointment said to be -the last in which Sir James Whitney took any -personal interest. The appointment met -with the unanimous approval of organized -labor. During the recruiting campaign, -Mr. Wright took a very active and -effective part in speaking throughout the -city and elsewhere. He married, January -26, 1876, Elizabeth R., eldest daughter -of the late Robert Simpson, at that -time of Guelph, but formerly and -latterly of Toronto. Mrs. Wright died in -1913. He is survived by his daughter, Mrs. -W. E. Hunter of Toronto, a grandson and -granddaughter, and a brother, Daniel W., -of Cashmere, Washington, U.S. For some -time he had been troubled with blood pressure -and in September, 1918, sustained a slight -stroke at his place in Niagara-on-the-Lake, -where he delighted in birds, flowers, and fruit, -in the cultivation of which he was well versed. -In April he had a severe attack of neuritis, -which, together with heart trouble, resulted -in his death, June 12, 1919, at his home, 105 -Macdonnell Avenue, Toronto. Of him, -Dr. James L. Hughes wrote: “A. W. -Wright was a vitally progressive force -in Canada for half a century. He was -a true democrat who recognized the right of -women as well as men to freedom. Few -men of his time so fully represented and so -powerfully expressed justice and consideration -for others as the basis of brotherhood. -He was a charming comrade, a faithful friend, -and an eloquent orator. All who knew him -were better for his influence. No man could -think a mean or base thought in his presence.” -In a touching letter to Mrs. Hunter from -Washington, D.C., T. V. Powderly, formerly -General Master Workman of the Knights of -Labor, wrote, in answer to a notification of -Mr. Wright’s death:—“It was withheld from -me until this morning; for a good reason, I -suppose. . . .

He courted interruption, for no -one could get the better of him in a clash of -wits.” In a review of his career, “Saturday -Night” spoke of him as “a man of remarkable -intellectual powers and charming -personality,” and of his youth, “he made a -hobby of economics and by the time he was -thirty was recognized as one of the ablest -writers and speakers on such subjects in this -country.” When nickel was discovered -in Ontario he urged on the government -to establish a customs smelter to treat -it, to sell at cost to actual users of it -in Canada, and to place a heavy export duty -on it, thereby giving Canadians a great -advantage in manufacturing high-grade machinery -of nickel steel, thus greatly stimulating -industry here, and assuring Canada -millions of dollars annually from export duty -on nickel which outsiders must have at any -cost. Instead of this a foreign concern was -given a practical monopoly to refine Canadian -nickel in the U.S. with the right to sell to -Germany or any other enemy of Canada -and the empire. Both as writer and -speaker he was keenly analytical, logical, -and constructive in his chosen style, but -in dealing with an unfair opponent he -was equally at home in using forceful denunciation, -bitter irony, scorching sarcasm, -or ludicrous burlesque, while in flashing and -apt repartee he was unrivalled. He was -widely read in prose and poetry, and, possessing -a remarkable memory and facile power of -expression, was a charming conversationalist, -usually the centre of a group of appreciative -auditors in any informal gathering.

He was immediately appointed a -house surgeon of Toronto General Hospital, -serving for one year; and from 1892 to 1900 -was Demonstrator in Pathology on the -University of Toronto Medical Faculty. -From 1894 to 1898 he was Assistant Surgeon -at St. Michael’s Hospital, Toronto, and from -1898 to 1900, Surgeon. Among other professional -offices he filled were those of Lecturer -in Comparative Physiology at the -Ontario Veterinary College, 1898-1908; Director -of the Laboratory of the Provincial -Board of Health, Ontario, 1900-1918; Associate -Professor of Pathology, University of -Toronto, 1900-09, and Professor of Hygiene -at the same institution, 1909-1918. A year -before the outbreak of the great war he had -become identified with the Canadian Army -Medical Corps and held the commission of -D.A.D.M.S. (Sanitation) for the 2nd Canadian -Divisional Area, from 1913 to 1915. -In that capacity he had much to do with -preserving the health of large bodies of troops -who were placed in training in that area after -the outbreak of the war in 1914. In the -spring of 1915 he went to England on staff -of No. 4 Can. Gen. Hospital, was made -officer in charge of Sanitation, 2nd Canadian -Division whilst in England, and -in the latter part of that year was transferred -to France as O.C. of the Sanitary -Section of the 1st Canadian Division. In -1916 he became Chief Adviser in Sanitation -with the Canadian Army Corps in France, -and later in the same year was seconded to the -Imperial forces as D.A.D.M.S. (Sanitation) -with the 2nd British Army in France. From -1916 to 1918 he was also Consultant in -Sanitation with the Canadian Overseas -Forces, England. The low percentage of -deaths from communicable disease in the -British and Canadian armies during the -war, was regarded as miraculous when compared -with the statistics of all past wars, and -to this desirable condition, which greatly -aided in the victory, Lieut.-Col. Amyot is -considered as having largely contributed. -He was twice mentioned in despatches for -service under fire while in France in 1916, -and three times won similar recognition for -his zeal in combatting disease among the -troops in England. In recognition of his -abilities he was personally decorated with -the C.M.G. by His Majesty. In July, 1919, -he was appointed by the administration -of Sir Robert Borden, Deputy Minister of -the newly created Department of Public -Health, and entrusted with the work of -organizing it on modern lines. Col. Amyot’s -writings include various papers on questions -of public health published in Canada and the -United States. He has also collaborated on -Technical commissions in connection with the -United States and Canadian Public Health -Associations, and the Ontario and Canadian -Medical Associations. He is also a co-director -of the International Waterways Commission, -and in that capacity has conducted -investigations on the pollution of the waters -of the Great Lakes. He is a Roman Catholic -in religion and a member of the Toronto -Board of Trade, the University and Canadian -Clubs, Toronto, and the Faculty Union of -Toronto University. On May 21, 1895, he -married Mary J. Keller, daughter of Francis -and Mary (Stuart) Keller, Whitby, Ont., -and has five sons and two daughters, John -Francis, Gregory Féré, William Keller, -Joseph, Mary, Francis and Sophie. His -residence is at Slater St., Ottawa.</p> - -<hr class='tbk654'/> - -<p class='pindent'><a id='owen'></a><span class='bold'><span style='font-size:larger'>Owens, Edward W.

He became a student-at-law -in the office of Cronyn and Greenlees, -of London, and shortly after passing the bar -removed to Toronto, where he joined the -firm of Leys, Reid and Owens, the head of -the firm being the late John Leys, Q.C., -M.P.P.

He was born at Portland, -Leeds County, Ont., on February 5, 1859, the -son of John and Margaret Donovan. His -grandfather was a native of Tipperary, -Ireland, who adopted the profession of law, -and coming to Canada settled at Forfar, -Leeds County, where he became the first -legal practitioner in that district. His father -was a mechanic and ship’s carpenter. The -subject of this sketch was educated at the -public and high schools of Athens, Ont., and -afterward taught school for a number of -years. Subsequently, he entered the life -insurance business, and became one of the -most successful writers of policies in America. -In the early nineties, he represented the Sun -Life Assurance Company of Canada in Great -Britain for two years, and subsequently -returned to this country to associate himself -with the Mutual Life Insurance Company of -New York, the oldest Company of its kind -in America. He was appointed Superintendent -of Agencies for the Maritime Provinces, -with headquarters at Halifax, and -subsequently moved to Toronto as Superintendent -for Ontario. In 1905 he became -manager for this province, a position he still -holds. He has become largely identified -with the financial interests of the province, -and is one of the greatest authorities on life -insurance as an investment proposition in -this or any other country. The sum total -of the policies he has written would run into -millions, and many of them have reached large -sums like $100,000 or $200,000. After -moving to Toronto, he still maintained a -home at Athens, Ont., where he became -largely interested in agriculture, and at one -time owned farm property in the Brockville -district. It was because of his loyal attachment -to the county of his birth that in 1905 -the Conservatives of Brockville riding -tendered him the nomination for the Legislature -in opposition to the sitting member, -Hon. George P. Graham, at that time a -member of the Ross Government. Though -his party was successful at the polls, Mr. -Donovan was unable to overcome the personal -following of Mr. Graham in the -Brockville district. Subsequently, in 1907, -when Mr. Graham retired from the Ontario -Legislature to join the Laurier cabinet at -Ottawa, Mr. Donovan was again nominated -and at a by-election in October, 1907, was -successful in redeeming the riding by a large -majority. His victory was the more signal, -inasmuch as Brockville had sent a Liberal -member to the Legislature at every election -for many years, and was regarded as impregnable -by that party. Though on each -occasion strongly opposed, Mr. Donovan was -again elected by large majorities at the -general elections of 1908, 1911 and 1914. -From the occasion of his first speech in the -Ontario Legislature, he has been recognized -as an important factor in the deliberations of -that body, his fine oratorical gifts being as -marked as the sound intellectual quality -of his deliverances. On many occasions -regret has been expressed that Mr. Donovan’s -business interests have precluded his accepting -cabinet preferment. During the late war -he turned his abilities as a speaker to patriotic -uses, and is credited with having recruited -more men for the Canadian army than any -other member of either the House of Commons -or the various legislatures of this country. -His efforts covered the entire province of -Ontario, and in the year 1915 he individually -secured the enlistment of 1,260 soldiers. -Personally, he is popular with men of all -shades of opinion, and is a member of the -Albany Club, Toronto, the Brockville Club, -and the Canadian Club, Toronto, and of the -Executive of the Empire Club of Canada. -In religion he is a Methodist, and is a member -of the A.F. and A.M. and the I.O.O.F. -He married Ella B., daughter of Duncan -Fisher, and has two sons, Albert Edward -and John Alexander, and one daughter, -Helen M.

He -was born in Albany, N.Y., on October 7, -1842, the son of Henry and Eliza Crannell. -His father was a prominent lumberman -of the ante-bellum period in New York -State, and the subject of this sketch -was educated in the public schools of Albany, -with a view to taking up the same line of -activity. At the time he attained manhood, -Ottawa was, as now, a centre of the -lumbering industry. Coming to Canada many -years ago, Mr. Crannell became associated -with the business now known as the Bronson -Company, Limited, ground wood pulp and -lumber manufacturers, Ottawa, of which -he is still an active partner. This company -is the offspring of an old lumber firm established -at Bytown (the early name of Ottawa) -in 1852 by J. J. Harris and Henry Franklin -Bronson, both of whom came from the United -States to operate newly-acquired timber -limits. Mr. Harris retired in 1864, and for -over forty years thereafter the business was -carried on under the name of the Bronson -and Weston Lumber Company, until the -present title was adopted. Mr. Crannell -threw himself heart and soul into the aspirations -of the young Canadian nation, and -became a naturalized citizen in 1875. His -interests have expanded with the times, and -now include California as well as the Ottawa -Valley. A good many years ago, foreseeing -the growth of the redwood industry on the -Pacific Coast, he acquired timber properties -there, and twelve years ago the Little River -Redwood Company, of Budwinkie, California, -commenced manufacturing operations. -Of this company Mr. Crannell is President, -and other members of the Bronson firm -directors and shareholders. By this industry -Budwinkie has been turned into a happy and -flourishing industrial centre. Direct railroad -connections with the mills have been established, -and handsome houses built by the -company for all employees, married or single. -For the latter class, the company operates -a community dining room, at which from 350 -to 400 meals are served daily. It is evidence -of the growing international importance of -the redwood industry that over one-third of -the company’s manufactured product is exported -to other countries, and the demand -both foreign and domestic is constantly growing. -It is a cedar of exquisite quality, and -in its finished condition makes a very -handsome article. The American interests -of Mr. Crannell have not prevented his -playing an important part in public life. -He served as alderman from 1889 to 1892, -and sat on the following municipal committees: -Water Works, Board of Health, -Printing, Fire and Light, and Court of Revision. -When nominated for mayor of that -city in 1896, his requisition paper was signed -by over one thousand ratepayers, representing -all creeds and classes. His integrity, -energy and independence of thought are -proverbial among those who know him, and -he is generous in his contributions to philanthropic -objects. The benefactions of the -Bronson firm since its earliest days are well -known, and have brought cheer and happiness -to hundreds of poor homes at Christmas time -and during hard winters. Mr. Crannell has -been an especially good friend to the Orphans’ -Home, the Old Men’s Home, and, indeed, all -hospitals and charitable institutions in -Ottawa owe much to his generosity and -initiative. He has twice been married: on -the first occasion on November 11, 1863, to -Julia A. Woolcott, and secondly, on January -26, 1876 to Gertrude E., daughter of the late -Henry F. Bronson, of Ottawa. He has three -sons, Edward Wilber, Alfred Raymond, and -Levi Wilfrid, and two adopted daughters, -Edith L. and Jennie G. Crannell.

In May, -1916, he was passed fit for duty, shortly -after being appointed Staff Captain to -Brigadier-General Lord Brooke’s Brigade in -the newly-formed 4th Canadian Division, -and served under this officer until Lord -Brooke was wounded in September, 1916, -and the 12th Canadian Infantry Brigade -came under the command of Brigadier-General -J.
