of business of first rate importance to the West and they very sensibly think tha politics can stand aside while the attend to they recognize that if the liberals remain in Power the was have what it has Long required a railway that will really compete with the transcontinental rail Way that will give the producers o this country competing line to the East and the West they know fur ther that if the liberals go out to grand trunk scheme will go by the Board and the whole question will Lave to be taken up anew by the government with the consequent loss of precious they item to take no in the

trying to save it irom Competition in the displays a Good Deal of nerve when he talks about railway owned there is not much about who will own the Borden government if one is Ever i who will be a colleague of will see to that now that Borden has declared himself in definite and unmistakable terms we the perhaps Evaris will be Able to inform the Public what bordens policy what is he going to do if he gets into office it is Clear enough that in that Case it is his in Tention to put the grand trunk Paci fic out of business but beyond that his definite and unmistakable language is about As Clear As a London system of time simply to territory through to have he Light which emerges them s prese rattle to the Glare an in a hated name or glowing it is interesting to remark How the first Mode of suspending arc lamps in factories has been reversed with decided a originally introduced these lamps were from a simple and shed their rays chiefly Down within a Small area the Light of dazzling Quality at a Short distance its effect was to cover the lamp with an obscuring so As to bring the Light to an endurable was to sub tract about on half from the Eftic Eucy of the All this has been changed for the better by placing beneath the lamp a reflector which throws the rays to a whitened Ceil whence they Are thoroughly and agreeably in this province of reflected Light we come upon the fact that a polished Silver Mirror reflects no better than a Sheet of White blotting both returning to the Eye about five sixths of the beam which they the sharply framed re Flection from the

conservative candidate in the Laurier administration at Ottawa exhibits a most and commendable appreciation of the necessities of the Northwest As shown in its highly successful immigration and particularly in its determination to encourage and assist inthe construction of the grand trunk Pacific which will give an immense impetus to the increase of population both in Manitoba and the and Advance the Prosperity of All business interests in a very Large in fact the enormous results to follow the opening and settlement of such a vast territory Are quite beyond my imagination properly estimate and Are not to be measured by the narrow Bounds of any political thought or policy conservative for had Borden really committed his party to the at the Cost of Soma two Hundred million of a government owned he would have against him in the forthcoming election every sane conservative inter est in the but he made no such Blunder As the Resolution binds the conservative party to no nothing except the sacred duty of destroying the grand trunk which audaciously As Pires to compete with Osier the the free press has said Many times has been duly abused by the Telegram for saying if Borden had his Way he would not per Mit the grand trunk to build mile of railway West of North on this Point there is no longer ground for a Borden makes it quite Plain that he has no intention of consenting to the grand trunk coming West Over its own Only Way it Ever could offer real opposition to the railway of his Friend and his Borden was careful to qualify his advocacy of the operation of a transcontinental railway by explain ing that these were simply his per Sonal Borden left his Bridges standing so that he can re treat whenever it is to his advantage to do for he should gain it would be quite possible for him to say that while personally favourable to a transcontinental rail Way owned and operated by the gov circumstances it impossible to give effect to his he is really bound Only by the terms of his Resolution which binds him and his party to Borden speaking to his Amend ment on suggested that if a headed by built a transcontinental line it might lease it for Twenty one to what company would this lease probably be made out to the of but Borden would not be Long in office before a More excellent Way would be pointed Outt him by his he would be introduced to the great

his interesting to the editor of tile free attention has been called to the fact that Tuere is a very determined Effort being made by the lumber interests to induce the government to increase the duty on imported if the Importunity of the lumber Barons is listened to and any increased Protection Given to their product at the present time i have no hesitation in saying such Protection be a great and one that would prove a real calamity to Thia province and tile territories lying of lumber is us Neces sary As i May say that any policy that would increase the Price of lumber in this province would prove a great hardship to All especially so to our who must have Lum Ber to protect their crops after the har cheap lumber la As essential to this province As is cheap and no i no could justify Uny policy that would increase tie Al Italy High Price of fills in when lumber was Nuch cheaper than it is at the present i protested against the duty which was levied on my imported recognizing that this article was one of the prime necessities in this and ought to come into the hands of the consumer at Fae lowest possible tha duty at that time was 30 per on dressed and to per on rough Lum Ber after considerable by private interviews and by Public appeals through tha 1 succeeded in convincing the government that the duty was a hardship to this and the con Eli Wuence was that it was entirely removed from rough and reduced to 20 per on dressed where it tetanus to increase the duty at Thia in the face of last years experience of excessively High i am be a mistake and one that i do not believe the government consistently while i am a firm believer in the wis Dom of a limited protective policy for i am at the same time firmly convinced that the prune necessaries of life ought to come to the Public at the lowest possible believing this a Wise i am therefore convinced that lumber ought to be made As cheap As that no unnecessary re Striction should be placed upon its production or upon its import the fact 1 Canada ought to put an Export instead of an import duty on it is a Well known fact that Lum Ber is becoming scarce year by and that our great forests Are being rapidly denuded of the Pine and other valuable and it is Safe to say that within the next Twentyfive years the lumber Supply of Canada will be a Tige increased is the most convincing governments immigration
