Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - May 25, 1904, Winnipeg, Manitoba Every Day Manitoba free press Detato tonal at 223 Telephone cult Oral business Job new Vork Oftle Henry 735 Temple Chicago office Henry 7012 Schiller bal late Freedom in Uberty in religion Equality in civil mat no Boom in the Toronto news article under the head of Winnipeg second by a quotation from the Winnipeg commercial which reads As follows there is no sense in winking at the situation any the work of crushing a senseless Boom must be and no time lost in facing the Assumption that Sucha thing As a exists now in the same sense As one existed in 1ss12 is in present values of which in suburban localities Are stated by the article in question to be held at exorbitant Are according to the same by an excessive number of real estate who Are now engaged in Caus ing real estate and and adding future burdens of our it is admitted that prices of centrally located properties Are on the the commercial thinks that the values of property Are being unduly the that will strike most citizens is whether in the in creased values there is justification for proclaiming the existence of a senseless and for the conjuring up of the ghosts of the dread col of the in the flood tide of our just at the moment when we need capital for sound and remunerative incalculable harm May result from alarmist if any inflation exists the wind therefrom will disappear As instalments become and the peaceful course of a few months will establish real Are present prices inflated population is the greatest Factor in the determination of land and property and taking it As a comparatively the prevailing prices of Winnipeg property Are not for the total realty valuation is or per Winnipeg realty is valued Eastern it is a recondite and esoteric the comprehension of the populace Only a few Superior after and reach of inner Light and understand the mystery though they life liable to standing to the multitude j so far Only one of these Superior souls possessing full knowledge of the Borden railway doctrines has appeared in Western in the person of Sanford the Public have Evans own word for it that he has attained that knowledge and with this Assurance needs rest without expectation that Evans will demonstrate this acquaintance with Dor Trines by setting Forth 4heir in a manner that All May for this cannot be Evans has tried again and again to do it both by pen and by word of Mouth but the top recon too too mysterious for the multitude to grasp them the last notable occasion on which Evans made this attempt was at the Maple Leaf club meeting a nights he expounded the Bor Den policy at length in flowing age and when he sat one of the Earnest neophytes Xien drum Mcmeans name arose and expressed a wish to hear Evans explain some Noth ing turned on the flow of age again until nearly an additional Colum Ful of words had fallen upon the ears of the Earnest the published report makes no further mention of the who appears to have been left As Well he May have been for the Climax of Evans oratorical labors thus set Forth in the report Evans foreshadowed an im1 portent declaration of policy on the part of the conservative Leader Dur ing the next week which be show exactly where the conservative party and win uni Versal like the rest of or thus has yet to learn exactly where the conservative party no wonder that Evans oratory left Lendrum How does he know that Borden will be Able to make things any clearer what Assurance has he that after a couple of hours of talk like that which Evans poured out upon the Maple Leaf will not wind up by foreshadowing for the week after next a highly important declaration by Sanford Evans showing by where the conservative party stands it is easy to understand How at or j613 per the ia11 mystification is having a de assessment commissioner in Winnipeg pressing effect upon a temperament puts on All property its estimated actual whereas in Toronto it is taken at a percentage less for assessment compared thus with Toronto the values of our prop erty Are comparisons of so much earnestness As that of Mcmeans and we May Well imagine As he left the Maple Leaf club muttering to himself with knitted like old a Many hours of listening have i As and heard great argument about it and evermore come out by the same door wherein i could be made demonstrating that j existing values Are far from being of a Boom there Are Many Good and ample reasons Why Winnipeg should pro Gress rapidly in the future and also Why the has made Progress at an exceptional rate during the past year or the Backbone of our commercial existence is in bushels were and in Winnipeg is unquestionably the distributing Centre for the area from which this product take the following facts As to the with some As that resources behind Winnipeg in 1ss2 and and it will be seen that there is no apparent justification for the conclusion that present conditions Are in any Way similar to those of 1ss12 such earnestness is and deserves better than that it should so Why does not Evans suggest to Borden the establish ment of a new secret order of the Mystic railway policy the grand cryptic Panja drum for the West of be Evans him self and Mcmeans could be made of the present conservative parliamentary party Are Ontario the has Bui outside of Ontario and will have less in the nex House a that Ontario Conser declared themselves to the building of tie National of poor Bor derive Pia Ediin most humiliating position with his party repudiating his pet though he says he declared 1 plainly that a Louii and evolving another which destructive every principle which he has enunciated in parliament on this Trah Scon it firs came up for Winnipeg of resent the High increased but living in Winnipeg which some superficial observers have affects of a Boom Are in the Best proofs available that there is no is being Winnipeg with this always spells High a Lents Are High because population in pouring in faster than the builders can erect with the inevitable result that houses Are at a Premium Anc rents have gone if by the Aid thousand dwelling houses coup a erected Over night they would a find occupants within a rents All Over the City would a More moderate to say further that the business that Winnipeg is do ing today does no justify the Popula Tion within its As Mercial did in a recent article which has been widely quoted to the injury of this is an inexcusable display of Given a Rich and Exten Sive constituency a distributing Centre May become immensely populous and wealthy with but a Mere sprinkling of As witness the great australian cities which completely eclipse Toronto and although Australia is much inferior to Canada As a manufacturing the sure test of a Boom is speculative building there is Little or no speculative building going on in this town May be True that Here and there properties Are being held at unduly High this is a big and nobody is obliged to pay More for the land than he thinks it there is plenty of room for it is unfortunate that Winnipeg citizens who Are unable to distinguish Between a legitimately rapid growth and should do an in jury to the town in which they live and do current poetry Worth read Alrh thine old time wit Cheries of thou full breasted hasten lest on some Winter weary sense there fill too and humming of thy 1ss2 Cal

present time it is there is a vast in the condition of values in Dur ing a and during the present normally prosperous but what is More striking is the develop ment of the country tributary to Winnipeg As a distributive and Commer Cial it has been such As to make our growth healthy and As a matter of fact we As a not keeping Pace with the demands made upon our warehouses Are inadequate to transact the increased business our railroads Are spending millions to make facilities equal to the demands made upon them our visitors cannot get proper hotel accommodation our people have to re sort to tents until such time As houses Are built to accommodate and in spite of these facts the word has gone Forth that a senseless Boom the Progress of Winnipeg merely reflects the rapidly developing the natural result of the continuous Stream of immigration and not Only has Winnipeg made rapid but every other Western town has likewise it is therefore a general growth of the whole Western country that accelerated Frnnk pegs and enhanced land and property values of that of keeper of the Mystic it Wotila note necessary that Mcmeans should understand the Hall Way policy All that would be Neces sary would be that after having blindfolded he should place his hand upon his heart and his Earnest desire to understand it is an Advance that has characteristics of a not the Circum have forced Winnipeg for Hasty building building Cost is Nota Tite Low indicative of efforts to keep As a capital with the development of tributary the Mystic railway there Are religions the vague that their doctrines cannot be put Tato definite and so mystically profound that Only the most persevering devotees Ever attain to in understanding of railway policy is like of those evasive the Ontario railway Down in old Ontario the conserva Tives no longer refer to Borders railway like the hero of Baylis song they Are forbidden to mention the once familiar it is the Northrup scheme that is being boomed at present in Ontario despite its Sharp repudiation by the Toronto Star noting this change of front on the part of the Ontario says the opposition seem to have definitely abandoned the wonderful alter native plan for a transcontinental railway proposed by the Toronto when it seeks some thing to compare with the government mentions it but pro instead a weird version of the grand trunk proposals to the minis we Are no longer told of the Extension of the inter colonial to Winni of the Purchase of the Canada of going into the Steamboat business on Lake Superior with some hocus pocus arrangement for cheating the american navigation or of a mysterious and beautifully vague plan for building the line from Winnipeg to the West under government con we Are told instead of an offer by the grand trunk to extend its line from North Bay the coast for the usual and invited to contrast which the govern ment is represented As turning with the project which it is now forcing through it is probably the Case that la on Tario the party prospects will be improved by the bold rejection of the impossible Borden plan and aos Vocaty of a grand trunk line West of North Bay to be subsidized by the government but Ontario is not can although there Are times when it appears to think it Ifie Serva Tives will line up behind the Northrup proposition the liberals will meet them on the it was Fieldings extreme readiness to accept Northrup declaration As re Vised policy of the opposition that moved Borden to launch his in effectual thunders of excommunication against the proposition of his Fol lower from East Hastings we Are said the guile Ful that it shall be understood in the words of the member for East that gentlemen oppo one and to a Jan were will ing to support that scheme of the grand trunk
