Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - September 14, 1875, Winnipeg, Manitoba Meeting. Let every person interested in Winnipeg and Western settlements railway meeting to to held in the court House this evening. We can and must get Tho crossing of Pembina Branch at Winnipeg. Who Are the of the gut ii Wes or to have opposition to Tho rapid development of Tho in of fro 01, unexpected in rulers Tho Globe the do minion Organ of the Mackenzie govern ment has Given Moro attention of Lato years to Manitoba and Tho North Wost. Affairs than any other Eastern journal and As Tho Organ of the Dominion government its utterances have in a great measure been regarded As Tho announce ment of Tho convictions and policy of Tho Ottawa government in reference to the subjects it has taken up and advocated. Pic Only in discussing the subject of immigration to Canada Tho Globe said the North West is to be the future right Arm of and took the that Tho More rapidly we give it strength Tho sooner will Tho Dominion reap a return for All Tho heavy Cost its acquisition and Ocrel Opelc it inflicts upon it. That journal contended for an. Immediate All rail communication from fort William to fort that As a matter of. Simple Economy Thoro would be an absolute gain if Tho attention of Tho government were to h very Largo extent concentrated on Tho task of making the journey from fort William to fort Garry As easy As thai from Montreal to Trio Globe defends this policy by declaring that should it to adopted Tho Day would to far Distant when any Ono will venture to propose to circumscribe the exertions of a Canadian administration to pro Mote emigration from Europe to this great is to prove ultimately an inexhaustible sour roof wealth and str Eiith and Power. It is surprising that sentiments such As these should meet with opposition from any source. But so it is. Journ als opposed Tho Mackenzie administration seem opposed to Tho rapid develop ment of Tho North West they say the North West has already Cost the Domin Ion Many millions and it will take Many millions still to do what Tho Glebe advocates make the journey from fort William to fort Gurry As easy As that from Montreal to Sarnia. They declare that if Tho people who settled Tho country from Montreal to Sarnia had at that time a Dawson route to travel on they would have been Well satisfied. And Well they might. At that time a Dawson route Nia and Montreal would have Beon a More stupendous undertaking and a greater Effort upon the. Part government to establish than an All rail Lino from fort William to fort Garry is taking the circumstances of Tho country then into consideration it must be admitted that the do minion is bettor Able now co construct a railway from Thunder Bay to Winni Peg than old Canada was to construct a Wagon Road from Sarnia to Montreal during the Early Days. It is no argument to advocate that because old Canada did without rail ways during its Early that Manitoba and the Groat North West should to Content to do Tho same. Ono conservative journal thinks that in the Effort to make the North West the right Arm of Canada which the Reform administration is at this moment endeavouring to do to should take care that the loft Arm Don t give that the attempt to Devolpe this country will involve Canada in a heavy Cost which the youngest inhabitant will live to regret. Tho conservative press confesses Tho party which it represents is willing to afford immigrants Overy reasonable facility to Roach this Distant territory but to provide such a line of railway As now proposed in Casio and at heavy Cost will to too much of a Good in this article to have merely indicated from the columns of Tho press of , who Are the real friends of this country and who they Are who would put a Stop if they could to the Progress of the railway and other works under taken by the Dominion government in order to rapidly develop our great re sources. Tho Mackenzie. Administration has hitherto Boon looked upon As enemy of rapid do elopement in Tho North West but jul Btu cause r3 events Are rapidly demonstrating. The to Al enemies of this country Are those who oppose Tho present Dominion gov i their several to Ward the Rapi Elof lines of railway connecting us with other portions of thedominion11 Ali pm ii a do minion territory and of Wuy of the United states As Well. The great work of constructing the Oit railway has been commenced arid we believe time will show that it has been the Wisest the most patriotic course the Dominion could have possibly adopted. Tho North West is Tho in rest and safest source of wealth Tho Dominion has at it command to Day and Tho sooner it grasps it the bolter for Tho country As a whole. It is the duty of All parties to unite in Ono grand patriotic Effort to utilize at the earliest the inexhaustible resources of almost Overy kind of Tho Groat West and to is not a Good conservative or a patriotic citizen who opposes Tho Iii put Forth in that direction by Tho present administration. John a. Mac Donald demonstrated his Tho Groat North West by Riberal promises regarding it to its 1 Mackenzie is now demonstrating his Faith in is being bitterly opposed is Tho conservative party and the conserva Tive press in Ontario and throughout Tho Dominion. It is Well therefore that the people of Manitoba and Tho North West should understand who Ard their friends in Tho East. Of lots. Bargains.

Thus far we have not said positively otherwise. We simply expressed an opinion upon Tho Point. Tho has now made a positive staked the reputation of its Legal knowledge upon the matter. Tho opinion expressed by Tho fuse press was obtained from a source equally As reliable upon Law common or municipal As chief Justice Wood therefore to Are not yet disposed to yield our opinion to the contradiction of our contemporary. However if the action of the Council in transferring of Tho water works vote to that for Tho Market building is Legal it is certainly most unjust. The illustration Sot up by the is not a parallel. We Centary appropriations Are entirely different from those of this by Law. In Tho Ono Easo the Money is the Ordinary re Vogue in the other it is Money bar rowed under special conditions. What the conditions in this instance Are the by Law As Tho Law directs set Forth. And we contend that the Council h Avo no Jiust right to violate one of these conditions if they have they must have equally As Good a right to disregard Thorn All and if so what object we again ask was there in making Tho by Law specific at All people voted for Tho by Law authorizing the loan having regard to All its terms therefore to expend Tho loan otherwise than it was authorized is to set at naught the popu Lar expression even though Tho highest court in this province would without doubt sustain such action.
