Party politics must be forgotten, the cry is for leadership in the form of a small united war Cabinet of our ablest men irrespective of party, universal service and sacrifice and for immediate action. Opportunity for citizens to express their interest and views in no uncertain terms will bo given at tho public meeting in the Opera House to-night. The speakers will bo Messrs B. J. Jacobs, J. M. Gordon, J. C. Young and M. H. Oram. His Worship the Mayor will preside.
