By the acquisition of this railway you can put the grand trunk Kali Way one of the great Rallay systems of Ontario. Into direct touch Vith the commercial life and development of the West inside of six months. For the purpose which i have suggested the government can acquire either full ownership or the absolute control of running Powers Over it. It May be suggested by some lion gentlemen on the other Side of the House that practicable. What i propose is 1m 1 say it is not i prac v u .uv._---. And when All his leading colleagues Lent.

It is this entourage which he should never have emerged that will shortly ask the electorate to it waa necessary to advertise for a i put them in the places of the present Leader. There was Only one Cabinet. Never supported that policy at nay. He is even pretend Long that or. Borden never proposed anything of the sort. Yesterday As has become his regular practice he reproduced to Cable and i Hove talked this ques the sentence mentioned above ton Over with Man railway men who. Are More familiar with this subject i think than any gentleman in this exception of House with the my lion Friend or. Olio 1ms Given these subjects a great Deal of attention. It is difficult to give one railway effect Ive running Powers Over a line which is under the control of another and competing railway but if the government acquires this railway from North Bay to fort William it can establish and maintain an Independent control Over it und give to these railways exactly equal running pow ers Over it for which they shall pay a proportion to their user on a wheel ago basis and that object can be accomplished As i have been informed by railway men the highest in the country without any difficulty and without any friction As when quoting it before the free press now directs attention again to the closing of the first paragraph of the extract that is to say. The sentence beginning for the Etc. Queen Mary said that the word Calais would be fou Jid engraved upon her heart and in like manner it. Might be said that if it were necessary at the present time to perform an autopsy on the conservative candidate in which heaven sentence of or. Borden s. Which is now appearing Dally on the editorial Page of the local conservative Organ would have suggested the government can acquire either full ownership or the Park control of running Power. Engraved his heart. In connection with this one sen tence which is All he dares quote from the Borden utterance quoted at the head of this article he actually had the Hardihood to say yesterday morning it the free press said he or. Evans takes precious Good care not to quote or. Borden As the free press did. The free press proposes herewith to quote or. Borden entire again the free press did not quote or. Borden on the former Occa Sion and u does not now even repro Duce its former quotation entire it omits the very passage we have re produced above. Evidently some Light on the meaning of that passage is slowly penetrating the intellectual dusk. What it docs quote is merely or. Borden s demonstration of the practicability of one of the various methods of attaining his immediate increase in railway facilities. There is not a word in it com mitting him to the use of that partic ular method or making that particular method a part of his or. Evans struggles in the Coll in which he has entangled himself Are making him present himself in some curious attitudes. But to assert that the free press has not published a sentence from or. Borden s speech which has appeared in i Hess col inns absolutely assured that if the . Yielded up to a conservative govern ment full and Complete control of the line around Lake would Only be when the government had yielded up full and Complete payment therefor the Purchase Price 1c simply based on Cost being something like thirty eight million dollars. It is simply a Jugg Ling with words therefore to say that or. Borden would acquire full and Complete control of the . Line around Lake Superior without Pur chasing it. That is what the transaction would amount to whatever the name that might lie put upon it or. Borden himself. In words quoted else the Rock on which of the Watson government went to smash was the clause in the celebrated arbitration and conciliation Bill granting a preference to Trade unionists. rejected on n division of to to 34 in the House of Watson government was Down and out. In held who is sex Premier of new South Wales the Commonwealth has its fourth Premier in Twenty six months. The arbitration Jid Concill. Which deserves to become historic , by the Fra Kequon let. Government of or. Deakin. Four Orion Thor ago it Wuh framed on please the labor allies. Or. Deakin however refused in the most positive manner to interfere with state extending the measure to include railway employees and other state servants. When the labor the help of a few free succeeded in carrying this Hanifi dment government Resl Trieu then the Watson my flt Folk the reins. Headers of the free press have been kept Well informed of the course of Public affairs in the Commonwealth by the excellent letters of our Austral ians correspondent. In View of the of the Watson government the following from his latest letter published in saturday last is of in Terest the labor men numbered barely a third of the hour a. But the two old parties were unable to agree Between themselves on a basis for coalition. And so or. Watson and his labor ministers kept their seats on the trea sury benches. They took the Bill up just where their predecessors Hud drop it. They have plodded along with it clause by clause until they reached the knotty Point of preference to unionists. The Bill As originally drafted by the last ministry provided that new Federal arbitration court could order employers to give preference to members of labor unions. At once Therp was u storm of criticism against hols class legislation of a minority government or. A Euklin and several members of his late Cabinet opposed the clause which they themselves had inserted on the ground that they had since discovered the iniquity of the principle involved. In fact it was hard to say How the principle of preference in itself could be justified. The government defended it. Merely on the plea of that the arbitration court could Deal Only with representative organizations not with scattered workmen and that when a representative organization of work men brought their Case before the court it was Only fair that mom Bers should be the first to reap the Benefit of any favourable decision the court might make. But on the Oiler Side. Or. Deakin urged arguments of Broad Equality before the or. Iteld thundered against the iniquity of a labor government toiling an honest Workman must choose 460-462-464 main Street. Popular store this. Has declared that saturday the.

It beats time to a very different tune very different tune indeed. As the free press pointed out when quoting the above passage from or. Borden before the sentence in ques Tion is one of those ornamental flour is Tell or. Borden sometimes indulges in. As is Plain upon the Moat cursory Reading of the entire passage above or. Borden himself almost in the next us that the sentence in question is meaningless by declaring that to secure effective running Powers Pur Chase would be necessary. He. Advocated the Purchase of the North line. So parliament understood him. So the country understood him. So or. Sanford Evans t understood him. Said or. Evans on August 20 lost two Days after speech or. Borden. Would or. Borden s exercise the Power by expropriation just As is done when land belonging to a private individual is Ted for railway purposes. Probable that . Would to glad to sell its North Shore line at but it is Cost Prole enthusiastic language flowed in great quantities from or. Editorial pen in those Days of the policy of purchasing the North Shore line. Day after Day he administered Wordy cast Gatlon to the free press for its opposition to that policy. Then came a period during which or. Evans had it gradually Bome in upon him that the West is solidly against _ that policy and will have none of it. And now to have the same or. Evana vociferously pretending that he that his memory is falling him sadly but is he also going Blind some things that need to be explained in August last the conservative candidate in Winnipeg to acquire full running rights , North Shore line of the ., or Borden would exercise the Power of purchasing by just is done when land belonging to a Pri vate individual is expropriated for railway now he would have us believe that or. Borden would acquire full and Complete running rights without purchasing the line at All that he would do it by leasing the line. That is to say or. Borden would lease the line from the . And then he running Powers Over it to the owners of the rather comple x proceeding or Bor Den could not compel the -. To lease him the line the ., in reply o the proposition1" should hand Over absolute the line by leasing it although they would still require to run their trains Over it ice de would no doubt pfc pre pared to give running rights to the government for a consideration or they would consent to an outright Sale. But it it is not reasonable to suppose that they would give away the control of their property which they use in carrying on their business upon any terms Short of actual Sale. It would have to be one thing or the other either . Ownership of the line around Lake Superior or govern ment ownership of it we May rest there could not be effective control without Purchase but the Peculiar form of mental astigmatism with which the conservative candidate in Winnipeg is now null cred prevents him from Reading Hitchc words of or. Borden. His memory too has become a Blank so fur us they Are concerned. Again Why. Should. Or. Borden pro pose to acquire full and Complete control of the . Line from North Bay to fort William and not of the line from fort William to Winnipeg Why Stop at fort William k the conver Sion of the North Shoro line into a National or. Borden s own words would be a Good thing would not the Extension of the National High Way to Winnipeg be a. Better thing the fact that the . Is As anxious to. Sell the line around Luke Superior As it is not to sell the line from Winnipeg to Lake Superior should surely make no difference to a statesman with All his mind Bent solely upon the Public Good. _ to acid to he perplexities of the Public in regard to the Borden policy. Or. Sanford Evans while telling us that what proposes is to acquire full and Complete control of the North Shore line without Purchas ing it. Which la the opposite of what he told us a year ago states in the same breath that borden1 policy will give us a new transcontinental but the route by which this new transcontinental railway will make Wity across to map in left x to -.1 i in mystery by or. Evans. There is u height of land. Not far Back from Lake Superior dividing the Lake Superior Bas in from the. James buy. Basin. To build u line South of that height of ii unionism on the one hand and starvation on the other. At last Tho United opposition succeeded in carry ing an amendment that Tho court could not exorcise this Power unless it had rest son to know that the major Ity of persons engaged in the Trade under consideration agreed in the award of preference. Or. Watson took this Adverse vote defeat up on a vital p Rinc Lilc of his Bill and asked for an adjournment of the House in order might reconsider his position. Has since decided to go on with the of the Bill but it is understood that he will Alc for a re consideration of the amendment and resign in Case it is carried again. Mcanul Filc the Power of giving prefer ence has been further limited. Tho government has just been forced to accept another amendment preventing the court from granting preference to any organization an Long As it re Mains political in its alms or constr in the most critical division Previ Ous to that on which the Watson government was Defeated or. Watson had a majority of Only one. He sought to Lead Friendly critics to support his preferential policy by threatening to drop the Bill and resign if the Amend mint carried but or.

The Watson government which was the first purely labor administration id history i has succumbed Una a capt on the condition that the major Ity retrace the whole doctrinal Progress upon which they most Pride them selves. Thus a majority of the Church is still exposed to what they Call spoliation. In Edinburgh worshippers Are deprived of churches 55.ministers occupy their Homes on Sufferance and the victorious minority has not a sin Gle minister within a radius of Twenty Miles to fill the Gap.

Or. Is thus confronted with the old old problem of How to govern a against its will. Two More Bye elections have gone again it the ministry at both of which Tho ministerial candidates were pronounced Chamberlan notes. The ministry has thus lost ten seats since chamberlains a was bet afoot the result doubtless is due primarily to the cry of a dear loaf. Or. Balfour s refusal to accept or. Chamberlain m proposal that the ministry summon another colonial conference in the natural sequel of or. Balfour s pledge to take no Steps in the fiscal question during the present parliament for any colonial conference must be futile unless it assumes British taxation of foreign food is a basis of discussion. There is. Moreover on the part of the colonies especially Canada a great reluctance to seem to attempt to per Suade the British electorate towards Imperial reciprocity against its will. Despite these seeming rebuffs or. Chamberlain talks As confidently As Ever. He recalls his predictions of a year ago that the British electorate deeply rooted in free Trade beliefs would at first reject his proposals. He openly anticipates a Liberal ministry next year.
