Roblin with so much cheap vain Glor sprung upon the province in his agricultural College pronoun Cia at Brandon. Or. Koblin s official newspaper apologist cries aloud Yea it lifts up its voice and spares not. By Way of preliminary to its denunciations it presents a ver Sion of the utterances of the free press which it must be said would not be unworthy of or. Roblin him self in the High tide of one of his harangues in the legislature or on the platform. Here is How the Tele Gram shows that on occasion it too can be not responsible for what it says when speaking the free r Ross discredits the Jas full .-b3 of agricultural colleges and covertly opposes Tho policy Al the government of establishing one in this province. Jut the uness of agricultural colleges has Bec a thoroughly established and the free press partisan opposition to a policy which will undoubtedly be the by Keiit to the Industry will Tarn the condemnation of the t of this As Well As of All others who have the welfare or Manitoba s greatest Industry at heart. Other Liberal papers that Are not under the same obligation As the free press to attack the govern ments policy however beneficial to the province it May be declare that agricultural colleges Are of the great est Utility and approve or. Goblin s determination to extend to Manitoba the benefits to be derived from such a. College. The Toronto Globe for instance remarked the other Day Premier Koblin has announced that his government will establish a col lege of agriculture in Manitoba. On Tario s experience has thoroughly demonstrated the Utility of the institution the partizan objections of the free will have Litt e weight. desire is to deprive the government of credit for its sound policy and in seeking to achieve its object it is willing to sacrifice the interests of the Farmers and of the province at . Etc. Xet less to say both or. Roblin and the Telegram not Only ought to know but do know that the free press does not discredit the usefulness of Agri cultural on Tho contrary what the free press said was As follows the usefulness of an agricultural College depends entirely upon the organization. It May be under Tho title of an agricultural College nothing More than a school for the training of theoretical experts or it May be a practical institution for training Riners. The history of agricultural a both in in Glam and on this i. Has been most unfortunate. United Stater larg land Grants by Fri made and sums of Nikuni a for such institutions but Tho a been largely diverted to to say that 75 per cent of in cultural colleges have be on Ihu is is Well within Tho Mark. Ult Rel in a one Only can be Clear the Paramount i Inre of such an institution a i and conducted upon the pie of Manitoba to respond As Wito. The sound of a great amen. Telegram of course equally himself carefully avoided mentioning the commission. This deliberate Gross discourtesy on or. Roblin s part towards principal Patrick and the six other gentlemen of the com Mission was what the free press called attention to As worthy of consideration on account of its being so eminently characteristic. What other responsible government having appointed a commission o responsible 1 Muri to report upon a subject would have its 1 remier jump in ahead of i Theoren Mission s report with a cheap election Dodge like air. Lib Iii s at Brandon it might have been thought that or. would have been above resorting to such a two Penny trick and that be would have at least made an incidental mention of the commis Sion. But he steered As Clear of mentioning the commission As he did of mentioning any special site that j would be suitable for an vol legs and his is Enro in has latter i Resard made the whole thing still More palpably evident As a Campaign device. Between now and the polling of the votes the location of the pro posed agricultural College will be Hung up before the electorate As a Premium and every Effort. Will be used by or. Robin and his assistants in the government to make it yield As Many votes As possible. The Dang Ling of this and other promised pub Lic institutions before the electorate is one of the Many devices which is being resorted to in the Hope of be j curing a continuance in office of the i present provincial regime and there i is this to be said for it that it is one of the least dishonest. O the conservative government and the National policy. The Mere state ment of these figures. Sir William said explained the great Prosperity prevailing in Canada to Day. During the eighteen years of the conservative re Gime the total foreign Trade can Ada increased by but Dur ing the six years the liberals have been in Power the increase has been during the last six years of the conservative Rule the average deficit Niter deducting the surpluses was during the six years of Liberal Rule there has been a net sur plus of continuing the postmaster general said yet at this stage of the growth of the country the government was con fronted with the extraordinary Situa Tion that a Small clique of the conservative party narrow minded members of the party who to get Back into office Hail thrown themselves into the arms of the High Protection party and wanted to put Canada again in the position she was in at the end of their eighteen years of Rule by Twenty five years the most Advant Ageous position of All the transcontinental systems for securing both local and through business. A Cultura j repealing the Fielding Tariff which Hod made possible the expansion of Trade and the general Prosperity which to Day exists. To assume that the people will do this was to assume that they have taken leave of the common sense which characterizes this Clear Cut and decided utter Ance against protectionism coming As it does immediately after the Halifax utterance of or. Fielding the minis Ter of finance which was equally Clear Cut and decided to the same effect strikes an answering chord throughout the West. In agreement with sir William Mulock s words As above. Western opinion is a unit for the maintenance of the Liberal Low Tariff policy is against the conserva Tive policy of protectionism is vital to Western welfare. Sir William Mulock in Peel. Of special interest to Western can Ada is the speech made at Brampton Ontario a few Days ago by the Post master general sir William Mulock at the convention held by the liberals of the county of peal inasmuch As it dealt mainly with the matters which concern most closely the agricultural Industry of the country. Peel is at present represented in parliament by or. Blain the gentleman who with a certain Teapot succeeded in making himself the most notable figure in or. Borlen s touring party in the West i la Patrie of Montreal in its com ments of the unseating and disqualification of or. Brunei m.p., for St. James Montreal says that or. Brunet imposed himself upon the constituency and that those who at the time had the supreme direction of the Liberal party in the Montreal District Are not responsible directly or indirectly for the condemnation of the court. The. St. James election was carried on aside altogether from the of the Liberal party and la. Patrole Hopes that the lesson will be taken to heart. Eastern Canadian Winter ports. The proposal by the minister of the Interior that Public assistance to the proposed trunk transcontinental Road be Given Only on the under standing that it select As its Eastern terminus a Canadian port open All the year around is one that has been Well received by the Public. At pres ent the grand trunk does its shipping through Portland a United states port. There is no desire on the part of canadians to Aid in building up port into one of the greatest ship a Globe correspondent who has been visiting the Clergue works at Sault Ste. Marie writing of the recent panic says it is Only recording the impression prevailing Here to say that the statement by or. Clergue respecting German Competition was in tended As an argument for a duty on steel rails but was Given without thought of its probable effect on the or. Clergue will know bet Ter next time. In an unsuccessful at tempt to Bluff the government or. Clergue gave his Enterprise a beautifully discoloured optic which it will be a Long time in getting Over. It is to be hoped or. Clergue s sad experience will not be lost on other can Adian manufacturers who May be planning to Mould Public opinion on the Tariff question by similar Means. If they emulate or. Clergue s example they will reap his Reward for their pains. They will prejudice the business reputation of their own enter Prises and they will fail in procuring the required impression on Parlia ment. There Are some liberals who Are weak kneed on the tart ques Tion but the government is made up of men who Are not fooled by any such obvious plays to the gallery As that indulged in recently by or. Clergue. While the British press has of late been devoting attention to the Busi Ness foresight and Enterprise of the Dominion government in entering last year into a contract with or.

Land without Hope. In 1s9g, under the conservative regime the Sal la placing of the above sex ill juxtaposition throws a highly Light on the Peculiar controversial methods to which Ali Rohin government s stipendiary news apologist is forced to resort. The Teiei Pinr s from the Globe ill Dervos spa Meiai attention in connection the mention made by the Fri As above of the Ontario agricultural College at Gull no. The Oiler of the above precious Pas Yipe from the Telegram Are equally worthy cd attention. In the article in the free press from which the Abov a extract is re printed it was further stated that the agricultural colleges of Minnesota Wisconsin and Iowa afford Many instructive lessons which Manitoba should profit and some account was Given of the n-iet.ho.l5 in use at these institutions. This however Calls for Only a word in Par sins. What the free Pross specially directed Public attention to in that was the fact that or. Roblin allowed his eagerness to up a Little badly needed a ital to it and him to the deliberate suppression Funni beginning to end of his Spoerli of oven the remotest to the commission appointed by to in quire into and report upon the subject of Tho establishment of an Agri College in this province.

Roblin. Afraid that by awaiting the report of the commission he would be losing a great Chance to blow his own Horn in his accustom St Robus Titus style of Trumps Tinc. And anxious to Curry favor with the Farmer with a View to the general Elei ton Campaign. Made his an noun a tront with an absurd amount of As if be the great absolute and autocratic ruler and owner of Manitoba in fee simple to have and to hold had decided in his paternal and Benevolence to by storm tic province an Agri cultural nothing could be More of the Man. He had the speech printed in full in the Teh Gram. Accompanied by hyperbolic Al glorification of his Wise and benevolent self to which g Ori value of Canadian farm products sex j to have a taut steamship service to ported to great Britain was 000. Trie Liberal government inaugurated a preference to British goods in the Canadian Market and in 1002, live years after the preference was Given by the Liberal government the exports were no less than an increase of nearly 100 per cent. For the five months which have passed by since june 30 last the end i of the fiscal year 1902, the Farmers i of Canada have received from the i Mother country for the farm products they have sent to feed the people of great Britain no less a sum than More than they received in twelve months under the conserva Tive regime. Comparing the two periods of the last five years of the conservative re Gime and the five years of the prefer ence the records show that in the lat Liverpool. The new Canadian com Pany which has the Enterprise in charge issued a prospectus in Lon Don a month or so ago in which Large claims were made As to the Advant Ages of this route Between Canada and great Britain Over All the alternative routes and 3. Study of the seems to Bear out these pretensions. A railway from the West coming out about Quebec could reach this port easily by Means of the great Quebec Bridge now approaching completion and the inter colonial. The projectors of the trans Canada railway in their prospectus hold out Hopes that Quebec can be made by ice breaking ships a Winter port. But failing this they express their utmost Confidence in the feasibility of making Chicoutimi 57 Miles up the Saguenay River available for ship Thiis new order of things the French Consul at Liverpool writes is to be feared that it will work to the detriment of our National producers. It therefore behoves them to further improve the Quality and Beauty of their fruit As Well As to their traffic and to thoroughly organize for the Market. Tin Canadian Farmers produce the Pear and claim that it is Superior in color and taste to that of France. They exported fruit of this variety to big and in 1901 amounting to francs Tho in Gish Ril hed Cashmere 1 double . Children s Sizos i pc. Soc k5c. 40c, j boys Hoso. Wire and wait us ribbed. Loe. 13c.

The ice in the Saguenay is mostly Salt water ice easily broken the Saguenay offers perfect safety for ships being All deep water and protected from snowstorms by Wall like Banks and the St. Lawrence from the Saguenay to the sea has none of the Shoals acid other obstacles which exist to some extent Between Tadous Sac and Quebec. Should these ports Chicoutimi and Quebec be temporarily inaccessible in Winter the Bridge now being built at Quebec will give this railway Short and easy Access to the Winter ports of Halifax and St. further Down the St. Law rence River on the North Shore there is a Good Harbor open the year round at seven islands which is across the River from Anticosti. Thus it will be seen that while there is no very extensive Choice the grand trunk will have no great difficulty in no less than Worth of farm products As against Worth during the last five years of the conservative regime an increase under the preferential Tariff of j i discussing the declared intention of the conservative party to repeal the British preference sir William recalled the result of the recent Bye elections As an indication of the remoteness their chances. It would he said be j interesting for the electors of Peel to j find out where or. Blain stood upon the important question of the repeal of the British preference. This was a. Question upon which there must be no half Way measures. Or. Blain must be either or. The one Side or the other and he owed it to the electors of Peel to Tell them where he stood. Something else which or. Blain owes is an apology to the people of the West for the Gross deception he at tempted to Palm off upon them in his fake Teapot argument against the a Ritesh preference. The fact that the fake was thoroughly exposed soon after or. Blain returned to the East completely discredited his utterances in the West but it did not relieve him from his obligation to make reparation to those upon whom a had imposed the Teapot falsehood. To return however to sir William Mulock s speech at Brampton. During the eighteen years of the conservative regime he pointed out Canada s total sales to the outside world increased at the rate of 52.500.000 per annul and for the six years of the Laurier government at the rate of and the total sales by Canada to the rest of the world during the past six years were in excess of securing a Canadian terminus through which the products of the West can find their Way to Europe. If As there is some reason to believe one of the grand trunk s main objects in extend ing its line to the Pacific is to put it self in a favourable position for securing a share of the immense Trade now developing bet Ween Europe and the Orient there will be an advantage in running the line pretty far North and thereby lessening the distance. A railway which would strike from North Bay direct to Quebec crossing the River by the new Bridge at that Point and reaching an Atlantic port by securing running rights Over the government Road would probably occupy in the course of Twenty or hence the backaches pains and Lumbago. Or. Chase s liver i prompt to it is not Only the lungs that suf Fer during the cold Damp seasons. The kidneys Are almost equally susceptible to sudden changes of temperature and Many a serious Case of kidney disease has its beginning with a cold which settles on the kidneys. Persons working out of doors Are most Likely to be victims of such trouble and suffer from backaches Lumbago rheumatism and crippled aching limbs but any one is liable to sit in a draught or expose his Back to a current of cold air. Cold settling on the kidneys causes congestion a clogging of the filter ing organs and consequent derange ment of the whole digestive and excretory systems.
