POLITICS IN CANADA.

INS AND OUTS QUIBBLES

" A ONE-MAN GOVERNMENT."

OTTAWA, July S. It is understood that the Liberal party will make the Constitutional issue the keynote of its election campaign and that it will have two proposals in view if it should be returned to power. The first will be to hold "a session of Parliament in the autumn for the voting of supply, and the second will be the appointment of a commission to examine the constitutionality of the Acts of the Meighen Administration. A statement was issued yesterday from the Liberal headquarters saying: "Mr. Arthur Meighen now constitutes all that can be designated a Government in Canada. In whatever pertains to Canada's domestic, inter-Imperial or international affairs and responsibility, and in so fax as Ministers sworn to administer the se oral departments of the Government are concerned, be is the entire Cabinet and the sole executive. "Either there is in Canada no Government which -will be recognised as such by British constitutional practice, or a Government of one man, a Government which is carrying on with such expedients as that man himself devises." The date of the general election is not likely to be announced for 10 days.— (Reuter.)
