Referring to democracy and the prin ciples of democracy, Mr. Thomas said they must be demperats and accept the voting and the will of the people.

There were great responsibilities in that office, and he was returning to.it deliberately and because he believed he could render most service to his people and his country in that position. He be lieved that, not in consequence but is spite of any change of Government, there was just the possibility of an improve ment in the trade of the country. But if there was one thing that would make that impossible, it would be, in his judgment,

(Laughter and cheers) There were three million Liberal voters at this election, and no one must under rate the enormous services which Liberals and Liberal leaders had rendered in combating Socialism. What was going to be the ultimate destination of those three million voters who were now to all in tents and purposes disfranchised? A con- sideration of the future direction of that great mass of voting strength was one of the most important thoughts which should weigh in the minds of all those who now had the supreme responsibility for the direction of our affairs. It might be that by wise and far-seeing policy the whole of those great forces might at some future day be found marching, with the Unionist forces in defence of the liberties of this country against the Socialist and Communist attack. It was because the Unionist party at this election embodied the great broad ideas of representing no class or factior, but the whole country; it was because their ristory had been acclaimed as a victory for all Britain and for all Britons beyond the seas, that such high hopes were entertained of the new Parliament and the new Government (Cheers-)
