HISTORY AND PROGRESS OF THE CANADIAN CLUB MOVEMENT Without organized effort, without the turmoil of a national conflict, without any special stirring of political life or feeling, the steady growth of Canadian Clubs throughout Canada has, at the end of 1907, assumed the form and force of a national movement. These Clubs have no very definite plat form, no decided purpose of a political kind, no uniform aim excepting a desire for information. Tet in all the centres of Canadian life these simple, unassuming, non-aggressive organiza tions have caused a stirring of the dust-heaps of political thought, have aroused the keenest interest in varied questions of moral, social, or constitutional evolution, and have created a thirst for knowledge of public affairs which can only result — if the move ment continues — in making the Canadian business and profes sional man of the future unusually broad in his views and singu larly well-informed in his facts. The initiation of such a movement is naturally a matter of importance and of just pride to those who contributed to its incep tion. Until very lately there was no doubt existing as to who deserved all the credit in this connection; in 1907 claims were made to a share in the honours. To Hamilton, however, belongs the unquestioned credit of organizing the first Canadian Club, which is still in existence, and to Charles E. McCullough the honour of founding that Club. From Hamilton came the idea and ideal of a banding together of Canadians for the purpose of meeting once a month, or oftener, in order to hear addresses from prominent men of all countries and of all opinions upon subjects with which they might be specially familiar. From Hamilton came the personal influences which resulted in Toronto's organiza tion, and from the latter city came the plan of a one-hour mid-day luncheon, held once a week, which ensured the success of the struggling idea and carried it into accomplishment and popular practice. From this basis in Hamilton and Toronto the move ment spread in ten years' time to Montreal and Quebec, to Halifax and St. John, to Winnipeg and Brandon, to Regina and Edmonton, to Victoria and Vancouver, to far-away Dawson itself. So far as this movement was originally a national one in the sense of being a faint striving after some form of indefinite " nationalism " — as distinct from Imperial or British unity though not necessarily in antagonism to that principle — there had been preceding efforts and even contemporary action. The National Club in Toronto was formed in 1871 with Dr. Goldwin Smith as its President, Mr. W. H. Howland as one of its founders and the spirit of national independence as a sort of elastic environ ment—which is now only a memory. The St. Jean Baptiste Socie- l 2 THE CANADIAN ANNUAL REVIEW ties long had a place in the evolution of sentiment in Quebec. The Ligue Nationale Canadienne was a latter-day product of French thought and the activities of Mr. Bourassa. The Canadian National League in Montreal was organized by Mr. W. D. Light- hall in 1893 at the very time the Hamilton Canadian Club was being formed and letters describing the objects of each organiza tion actually crossed in the mails. This League had the following platform : " To advance and maintain our national unity and integrity; to disseminate a spirit of patriotism; to promote an interest in citizenship, its duties and rights ; to spread a knowledge of Canadian history and resources and other like objects." It never had the Luncheon or weekly meeting idea and is not now alive in its original form. The special claim made to paternity in the Canadian Club movement came from Guelph. It was asserted in speeches and newspaper correspondence in 1907, and was to the effect that a Canadian Club was formed in Guelph in 1888 by Mr. Malcolm MacCormack, b.a. ; that it lasted several years ; and that as the Hamilton Club was not organized until 1893 the former was really the parent organization. A banquet was held in Guelph on Dec. 6th, 1907, to celebrate " the 19th anniversary of the original Canadian Club " and amongst the guests were Prof. Macgillivray of Kingston and Mr. H. K. Cockin of Guelph, who were toasted, as Honorary members of the Club in its early his tory. As against this claim was the fact of the Club being, in any case, out of existence when the Hamilton organization was founded ; that Messrs. C. R. McCullough and W. Sanford Evans and other well-known pioneers in the Hamilton movement had never heard of such a club; that missionary efforts were made by the Council of Canadian Clubs in 1899 to organize a club in Guelph, and that Mr. Galbraith of the Mercury in that City pro mised his aid to the movement; that the Society, organized in 1889, was regarded in local circles as a sort of literary society; that a Canadian Club was organized in Guelph on Feb. 14th, 1907, with Mr. G. C. Creelman, President of the Ontario Agricultural College, as its President, and without any reference, in the Guelph Herald report of the meeting, to the existence of a preceding local Club. The claim may, therefore, be considered interesting but decidedly vague. The Canadian Club in Hamilton was initiated at a meeting, in the office of Mr. McCullough on Dec. 6th, 1892. Those present were the convener and Messrs. James Ferres, John T. Hall, George D. Fearman, W. Sanford Evans and Henry Carpenter. It was decided to form a society, called the Canadian Club, for the cul tivation of Canadian patriotic sentiment and the study of Cana dian history, literature, art and resources. There were to be no party politics in its composition or work and the delivery of addresses by representative men was to be a central feature of its History and Progress of Canadian Club Movement 3 policy. Provisional organization took place on Feb. 1, 1893, and the officers were elected on Feb. 15th. They included Sanford Evans as President, James Ferres, Thomas Morris, Jr., and George Lynch-Staunton as Vice-Presidents, Stuart Livingston as Literary Correspondent, J. H. Land as Treasurer and C. R. McCullough as Secretary. Some of the pioneer members of the Club were Adam Brown, F. H. Whitton, A. Tr Freed, F. R. Hutton, Lieut.-Col. J. S. Hendrie, A. H. Heming, Kirwan Mar tin, W. A. Sherwood, Dr. Douglas G. Storms, F. M. Pratt, Senator Sanford, the Rev. J. H. Long, Dr. Thos. O'Hagan, J. L. Lewis and R. E. Land. The Presidents since organization have been as follows : 1893 W. Sanford Evans, m.a. 1894 Dr. Douglas G. Storms. 1895 Charles R. McCullough. 1896 Stuart Livingston, m.a. 1896 Rev. J. H. Long, ix.b., m.a. 1897 Kirwin Martin, m.a. 1898 Kirwin Martin, m.a. 1899 F. F. Macpherson, b.a. 1900 A. E. Manning. 1901 R. A. Robertson. 1902 J. S. Gordon, o.s.a. 1903 D. M. Cameron. 1904 D. M. Cameron. 1905 John T. Hall. 1906 J. H. Smith, p.s.i. 1907 W. M. McClemont From Hamilton in this connection radiated an ever-increasing influence. Early members of the Club, such as E. W. B. Morrison, moved to Ottawa, and no doubt aided in the formation of the Club there. As a matter of fact seven former members of the Hamilton organization were included in the charter list of the Ottawa society. So with Mr. James Ferres in Montreal, Mr. J. P. Casey in St. Catharines, Mr. W. Brooks in Gait, and Mr. Sanford Evans in Toronto, and afterwards in Winnipeg. The Hamilton Club was incorporated on June 25th, 1894, with the following as its announced platform, though the permanent room idea was aban doned after a brief trial : " The purpose of the Club is the encour agement of the study of the history, literature, art, music and natural resources of Canada, the recognition of native worth and talent, the fostering of a patriotic sentiment, and the mainten ance of club rooms or permanent headquarters in premises owned or leased by the Club." Starting upon a small scale the Club soon had 700 members, though those figures are now greatly reduced. Renewed activity in 1907, however, added somewhat to the Club membership. Its earlier speakers included many local men of high standing, and later on, men of the rank of Sir Oliver Mowat, Hall Caine and Sir Gilbert Parker, together with prom inent French-Canadians such as R. Lemieux, J. G. H. Bergeron and J. Israel Tarte, addressed the organization. An exhibition of Canadian pictures was held, various essays were read covering a wide range of subjects, a steel flagstaff was presented to the City and Mr. J. H. Smith initiated a plan for the flying of flags upon the school-houses of Wentworth County. Im 1897 Mr. Sanford Evans came to live in Toronto and at ¦once (gpde#TOured to organize a Canadian Club in that city. It 4 THE CANADIAN ANNUAL REVIEW was not an altogether easy task. A national sentiment or ideal which could be at once Canadian and British was not as yet understood, and there was a tendency to look askance at the new " nationalism " as being a little dangerous. However, Mr. Evans kept at it ; some preliminary meetings were held in October and November, including a banquet of about a hundred persons, at which the speeches did not err on the side of Imperialism; and on Nov. 16th an organization meeting resulted in a constitution being adopted with the following principles : " It is the purpose of the Club to foster patriotism by encouraging the study of the institutions, history, arts, literature and resources of Canada and by endeavouring to unite Canadians in such work for the welfare ' and progress of the Dominion as may be desirable and expedient." Mr. John A. Cooper was elected President, W. Sanford Evans and Neil McCrimmon, Vice-Presidents, W. H. Moore, Literary Corre spondent, A. H. Beaton, Secretary, and C. A. B. Brown, Treas urer. The membership included men of all kinds of political and public thought and the roll for 1897-8 numbered 55 ; in 1907 it was about 1,200. In 1898 A. E. Huestis became Secretary of the Club and remained in that capacity with great success until 1907, when he was succeeded by J. W. H. Mackie. This Club early adopted the principle of a weekly luncheon, addressed by some representative Canadian or prominent visitor, for a limited period of half-an-hour, and, in 1903-4, commenced to publish its Proceedings. The speeches during these years dealt with every conceivable variety of subject and personal opinion. Amongst the Canadian speakers were such men as the Hon. G. W. Ross, the Hon. A. B. Aylesworth, Colonel G. T. Denison, W. F. Mac lean, m.p., Sir Sandford Fleming, Sir T. G. Shaughnessy, the Hon. J. Israel Tarte, the Hon. G. E. Foster, the Hon. Clifford Sifton, J. S. Ewart, k.c, H. B. Ames, m.p., Dr. Goldwin Smith, C. Marcil, m.p., C. M. Hays, Prof. S. B. Leacock, B. E. Walker, J. S. Willison, H. Bourassa, m.p., the Hon. H. R. Emmerson, and Ralph Smith, m.p. Earl Grey was the guest of a special banquet on Nov. 29, 1906. From Great Britain came the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Rt. Hon. John Morley, the Rt. Hon. James Bryce, Dr. William Osier, H. Rider Haggard, m.p., General Booth and Rudyard Kipling. Some United States speakers were Booker T. Washington, President Elliot of Harvard, James H. Eckels and Andrew Carnegie. The Presidents of the Club during this period were as follows : 1898-99 W. Sanford Evans. 1899-90 George Wilkie. 1900-01 W. E. Rundle. 1901-02 S. Casey Wood. 1902-03 D. Bruce Macdonald. 1904-05 George A. Howell. 1903-04 W. R. P. Parker. 1905-06 E. R. Peacock. 1906-07 Mark H. Irish. 1907-08 John Turnbull. History and Progress of Canadian Club Movement 5 An historical incident was the banquet tendered to Mr. Ayles worth on Nov. 2, 1903, upon his return from the Alaskan Bound ary Tribunal. The profound stirring of public opinion in that matter found expression in a tenseness of feeling regarding the dinner which resulted afterwards in the formation of the Empire Club, as a protest against the supposed spirit of the demonstra tion, and in grave fear at the time as to the outcome of the affair. In point of fact a huge British flag was prominent, the speech was moderate in tone, and the demonstration harmless. Since then, neither in Toronto nor elsewhere, has there been any talk of the Canadian Club or clubs being likely to foster any senti ment but the best Canadianism, or to become anything but a med ium for informing the people upon a wide range of public questions and problems of social development. The influence of such organizations as those of Hamilton and Toronto could not but grow as the years passed by. A Canadian Club was formed at Gait by Messrs. A. R. Goldie and W. Brooks and another at Ottawa in 1903, with Lieut.-Col. A. P. Sherwood, c.m.g., as President, He was succeeded in 1904-5 by W. L. Mackenzie King, in 1905-6 by Dr. J. D. Courteney, a former member of the Canadian Club of Hamilton, in 1906-7 by Plunket B. Taylor, and in 1907-8 by Ham- nett P. Hill. An immense number of prominent men have addressed this Club including many of those already mentioned and others such as Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the Earl of Dundonald, the Earl of Minto, Sir F. W. Borden, Mr. R. L. Borden, m.p., Sir Howard Vincent, Earl Grey, H.S.H. Prince Louis of Batten- berg, Dr. W. H. Drummond, Sir Gilbert Parker, Mr. J. H. Choate, Sir Richard Cartwright, Sir Frederick Pollock, the Hon. Elihu Root and Mr. J. J. Hill. In 1904 Clubs were organized at St. Catharines, Winnipeg and Dawson City; in 1905 at Montreal and Orillia, Ont. ; in 1906 at Vancouver and Victoria, Edmon ton and Portage la Prairie and at London and Perth in Ontario ; in 1907 at Moose Jaw, Brandon, Canirose, Saskatoon, Calgary, and Hamiota, in the Western provinces, and at St. John and Moncton in New Brunswick; at Halifax in Nova Scotia, and at Barrie, Guelph, Collingwood, Brantford, Port Arthur, Peter borough, Stratford, St. Thomas and Woodstock in Ontario. Of these organizations the Montreal Club had A. R. McMaster as its first President and Pierre Beulac in 1906-7. Mr. W. T. Stead was a prominent speaker during 1907 ; so were Rudyard Kipling, the Bishop of Sligo, and Donald Macmaster, k.c. The Winnipeg organization has been specially active. Its first Presi dent in 1904-5 was J. S. Ewart, k.c. He was succeeded by J. A. M. Aikins, k.c, in 1905-06, and by G. R. Crowe in 1906-07. Mr. Sanford Evans was prominent in the formation and manage ment of this Club and Mr. J. B. Mitchell was and is the enthusi astic Secretary. Special action has been taken by protests against the too-frequent flying of United States flags in public places and 6 - THE CANADIAN ANNUAL REVIEW in the theatres. Amongst its important addresses were those of Mr. J. J. Hill, Mr. F. C. Wade, k.c. (urging a statue upon the grave of Wolfe), Hamar Greenwood, m.p., and J. G. Colmer, c.m.g., A. J. Dawson, the English journalist, Sir Gilbert Parker, Earl Grey, Sir W. Mulock, Sir John Murray and Mr. Kipling. The Canadian Club at St. John was formed on Feb. 6, 1907, and its most notable speakers were the Governor-General, Hon. L. J. Tweedie, Lieut-Governor, President R. A. Falconer of Toronto University, Dr. G. R. Parkin and Professor S. B. Leacock. The Halifax Club was formed the day after the one at St. John with Lord Grey, Mr. Justice Russell, J. S. Willison, Rev. J. A. Macdonald, Professor Leacock, Rev. Dr. Magill, President Fal coner and Hon. G. P. Graham amongst its chief speakers of the year. The Club at Vancouver, B.C., was organized on Aug. 22, 1906, with F. C. Wade, k.c, as President, G. H. Cowan, k.c, as Literary Correspondent, and J. N. Ellis as Secretary. Lord Grey's address on Sept. 25, 1906, was the most notable event in its his tory. Hon. 0. S. Strauss, U. S. Secretary of Commerce and Labour, and Mr. Kipling were other speakers. The Club in Victoria had as its first President, 1906-1907, Mr. A. W. Mc Curdy, with Frank I. Clarke as Secretary. This organization passed a very strong Resolution on Oct. 23rd urging the Provin cial Government to see that the Union Jack was kept floating over all school-houses and, under the initiative of its Secretary, invita tions were sent to Sir J. A. Swettenham, the retiring Governor of Jamaica, to address Canadian Clubs at Calgary, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Montreal, St. John and Halifax. In Dawson, Yukon Territory, a Club was organized in March, 1904, largely through the efforts of Mr. E. S. Busby, Inspector of Customs, who was its President for the first two years ; Mr. Charles Macdonald in 1906 ; and Dr. A. J. Gillis in 1907. Some of the Canadian Club Presi dents and Secretaries elected in 1907 were as follows. : Place. President. Secretary. Guelph G. C. Creelman Dr. A. T. Hobbs. Halifax George S. Campbell J. A. Chisholm.

The progress of the movement in its wide-spread but detached way naturally evolved the idea of combination. Messrs. C. R. McCullough and Sanford Evans were the first to make an effort along this line, but they were met by two or three serious difficul ties. What someone has called the genius of the Canadian Clubs seemed to lie largely in the direction of perfect independence of one another and in complete freedom from the trammels of organ ized lines of thought or action — outside of the one general prin ciple of Canadianism. Another obstacle, lying below the surface, was the question of including the organizations in the United States. The formation of these latter concerns had been proceed ing for some time and in 1904 they were nearly equal in number to those of Canada. New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Cleveland, Pittsburg, Rochester, Cincinnati and St. Louis had established Canadian Clubs or Societies and many of their mem bers were, very properly, citizens of the Republic with a national ideal of a naturally, different character from that of the member ship in Canada. It was a grave problem, to some Can'adians, as to how far this influence would be beneficial in any combination such as was proposed. The first and preliminary -action was taken in 1899, when a League of Canadian Clubs was formed with Hamilton, Toronto and Gait as the membership and a Provincial Council consisting of W. Sanford Evans, Toronto, as President, A. R. Goldie, Gait, as Vice-President, and C. R. McCullough, of Hamilton, as Sec retary-Treasurer. Other Clubs came gradually into the League and especially a number of the United States organizations. At a Conference held in Niagara Falls during the summer of 1906, representatives were present from Hamilton, Montreal, London, Toronto, Ottawa and Vancouver, as well as from Boston, Buffalo, Cincinatti and some other United States points. Mr. C. R. Mc Cullough was elected Chairman of the General Council of Cana dian Clubs and Societies, as it was now called, with John Cousins, 8 THE CANADIAN ANNUAL REVIEW of Cincinatti, as Secretary, H. C. Monk, of Montreal, as Vice- Chairman for Canada, and A. T. Minard, of Boston, as Vice- Chairman for the United States. Dr. J. D. Wilson, of London, was Secretary for Canada, and Gordon F. Matthews, of Buffalo, Secretary for the United States. For some unexplained reason the Toronto Club took slight interest in the gathering and only two or three representatives were present out of its membership of over a thousand. \ It may be added here that the most active organizations in the United States are those of New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Pittsburg. Under Dr. Neil McPhatter and the active efforts of Mr. W. T. Robson, now of Montreal, the Club in New York did good service in promoting international friendship — especially by its annual banquets. Amongst them were Sir Charles Tupper, Senator J. V. Ellis, the Hon. G. E. Foster, Sir F. Borden, C. G. D. Roberts, the Hon. Clifford Sifton, Charles Marcil and the Hon. R. Lemieux. Its Presidents included Dr. R. H. Upham, 1900 and 1901; H. W. Patterson, 1902 and 1903 ; J. F. Masters, 1904 and 190'5 ; C. H. Mclntyre, 1906 and 1907. The Canadian Society of Philadelphia was organized in 1901 with Mr. Thomas Martindale as President during that and the four succeeding years. Mr. W. A. Higginbotham was elected in 1906 and 1907. Mr. W. T. Rolph was Secretary of the Club in 1907 and had been so for six years. In Pittsburg the Presi dent of the Canadian Society for 1907 was Dr. J. Holton Robin son and the Secretary W. M. Thompson. A Canadian Club was formed at Houston, Texas, on Feb. 21, 1906, with W. W. Ander son as President and J. S. C. Adamson as Secretary. An interest ing organization was the Canadian Club of Harvard University with a large membership composed of British-born students from any part of the Empire and with Mr. Varley B. Fullerton, b.a., as President in 1907. In the far-away capital of Mexico a Cana dian Commercial Club was formed in 1904 with J. H. McLeod as President. He was succeeded by C. T. Ambridge in 1906 and by A. R. Dobson in 1907 — with A. D. W. Leach as Secretary. In all the American organizations, the primary object was to keep alive memories of the Canadian home country and to improve its relations with the United States through an extension of knowledge there as to. Canadian conditions. In London, England, it may be added, a Canadian Society was formed some years ago with 400 members and a Committee under the chairmanship of Mr. Barlow Cumberland, who was then living in London. It has since done excellent service in keeping Canada before the British public. The first of all such organizations in London, or elsewhere indeed, was the Canada Club, now nearly a century old. The Hon. Secre tary of its Managing Committee since 1901 has been Mr. J. G. Colmer, c.m.g., and the other members of that body in 1907 were Messrs. Ion Hamilton Benn, Donald Macmaster, k.c, Frederick History and Progress of Canadian Club Movement 9 W. Taylor and Henry T. Walcott. Its membership is 160, of whom some 140 live in the United Kingdom, and its object is to provide social intercourse amongst Canadians living or visiting in England. One more development of the movement must be mentioned. In the earlier organization gatherings (except in Hamilton) and practically at all the succeeding meetings of these Clubs through out Canada, women were excluded both from attendance and mem bership. In the autumn of 1907 action was taken to remedy this omission. Almost simultaneously, and without concerted action, Montreal and Winnipeg organized Women's Canadian Clubs with, in each case, a large "and representative membership. The in augural luncheon of the Montreal Club was held on Dec. 12th with Lady Drummond in the chair; with an inspiring address from Lord Grey, who urged support to the proposed Champlain ter centenary celebration and read a cablegram from the King prom ising a donation of 100 guineas toward that object; and with a very numerous attendance. The officers previously elected included Lady Drummond as President, Madame Dandurand as Vice- President, Mrs. Walton as Hon. Treasurer, and Mrs. R. Wilson Reford as Hon. Secretary. In Winnipeg the Club was organized largely through the efforts of Mrs. H. J. Parker, and on Dec. 6th Mrs. Sanford Evans was elected President and Mrs. W. F. Osborne Secretary. The inaugural luncheon was held on Dec. 14th with an attendance of over 200 and addresses by the Hon, T. Mayne Daly, of Winnipeg, and John Kendrick Bangs, of New York. Incidents of 1907 in connection with these Clubs, and apart from the organization of new ones already dealt with, were many and interesting, but only a few can be mentioned here. The Ottawa and Toronto organizations refused to hear W. T. Stead, when he visited Canada, owing to his attitude during the South African war; the Vancouver Club undertook (June 11) to collect funds for the erection of a local Memorial to Captain Cook ; the Calgary Club arranged for the public flying of a flag in that city on specified days in the year. During Lord Grey's address _ to the Club at St.* John he expressed warm approval of the position and work of these organizations : " The tendency of the addresses delivered to Canadian Clubs, in which no references to party interests are allowed, will be to lift the people out of the valley in which they dwell on to the mountain tops whence their gaze will extend over a wider horizon than that which is covered by the shadow of their parish pump. It is because the tendency of the Canadian Clubs is to enrich our life by widening your horizons, and by keeping before you high ideals, the well-being of the State and the interests, not of a party, but of an Empire in which Canada may one day be the controlling influence, that they com mend themselves so entirely to my approval ; and I further believe that in any city where a good Canadian Club exists the reign of 10 THE CANADIAN ANNUAL REVIEW boodle and graft for more than a very short time will be an im possibility." The following list of addresses delivered before the Canadian Clubs in 1907, gives a fair idea of the scope and char acter and influence of these organizations and shows how powerful the continued growth of this movement may be in moulding the public opinions and life of Canada : Date.
