Free March free press at Weir 0 the freephone main main Bumer Letlon dept Imp trial Freedom o tet fifty civil right trying to perpetuate Mon in the municipality of Kildonan entered into an agreement with the Winnipeg electric Street railway for the operation of a Street car service upon i iffy at the free press the terms of such an agree the company was Given extra Ordinary the for in to expropriate private exemption from All of taxes for Twenty and a monopoly for thirty five in return for these extraordinary privileges the company provides a service round trips a and the of four fares the company charred Are such will be intolerable in the course of a few Vars that District the coves settled As closely As the Elmwood and the extreme limits of the North it is a locality that within a very Lew be and the traffic it never will if exacts from the Resi dents of that District the tolls ii s entitled to under this it is the desire of the municipality to have the University located in that but they have signed away already to the Street railway the right to collect fares that would make the Kildonan Eite if the Street railway company Grants a it is Al ways for a acid pro they exact their Pound of flesh unrelentingly whenever drawn into the making of a this is their fixed and it is never tempered by any display of Public to fasten irrevocably upon the municipality in question these onerous the company now seeks to get the legislature to give the agreement the same Force As though it were a Law of the they have succeeded in getting a Bill introduced into the legislature by the member for Swan with this object in the Farmers representative from Swan has Dis to anguished himself present session in two he led off the governments attack upon the Grain growers Bill by delivering a speech that reflected admirably the Corpora Tion the elevator owners could not themselves have presented their Case with More he marshalled to his in presenting the elevator owner the authoritative arguments of an old school of political having served the elevator he has now become Champion for the Winnipeg Street railway the role he has accepted would have appropriately fallen to the lot of a More local or for All of whom Are fully acquainted with the sentiment of the Public to wards the said railway these men Bear no antipathy towards that Only a few Days 330 they voted solidly for the legislative preservation of a monopolistic them by the legislature with out the congest of the citizens of win on All occasions when Winni Peg has endeavoured to get fair treat ment from these men have always lined up against their into the to the original pro i expressed in the governments naval Bill now before parliament stud Borden thus finds himself Oul of thanks to his extraordinary with his cons Titu the conservative member for Jam in his speech the other showed himself More Friendly to the governments scheme than to the rival programme advocated by the conservative leaders the conservative policy is not the maritime it is not where it has been repudiated by both Monk and the leaders of the opposition to the it might fairly be asked where is there any great body Public opinion favourable to the Borden proposition to give Twenty Odd millions to the admiralty and postpone indefinitely the work of beginning a British Navy it has represented in the Kast that the West is boiling Over with enthusiasm for this the statement is not the West is behind the governments proposal to have a can Canadia owned and can Adia controlled it Over by at least three to the opposition policy of proclaim ing our inferiority and hiring our de paying other people to do our fighting for is undoubtedly popular in least Canadian of All the cities of there May be considerable sentiment throughout on Tario but it is not so far As one can judge the feeling of Rural Ontario is rather Adverse to any thing being done in the Way of naval defence but this is a position that cannot be we have got to into this business of naval defence or get out of the once this is realized by Ontario it will choose the government policy rather than the Borden which is an insult to the self respect of the Best Tea is 10 a is the Best value because it is More fragrant and healthful than other it goes much it costs no mixed and natural Goe and 70c per hot times at hot Springs cites they have done this so consistently that the wonder is of them was not selected to introduce this Bill thai would give the company another cinch their monopoly upon the City of Winnipeg is the explanation of their not being so selected i probably to be in the danger to their chances of re election that would result in their being too closely with legislation that cannot be classed As other than a Gross imposition upon a to save them from elec Tion perils of this representing a constituency where the electors Are not acquainted with local conditions in Winnipeg and its sub has been selected for this party As he was for the defence of the elevator but this1 plan will not succeed in wholly outwitting the the responsibility of ratifying the granting of monopolistic privilege in will fall upon those who vote for fort Frances water elsewhere in this Issue we set Forth the essential facts in the controversy Between the people of fort Frances and the Ontario and Minnesota Power company with respect to the proposed exportation of Power generated on Canadian Side of Rainy River to operate industries established across the Stream the state of the record of the successive Steps taken this company from its incorporation some years ago to the recent application to the minister of Inland Revenue for a License to Export this Power strongly supports the theory that the intention from the outset was to deficit Power on the Canadian Side of the line for the operation up building of industries established in the United it appears to be cear that the Industrial Plant now in process of completion at International Falls is intended1 to absorb the entire amount of Power which can be devel oped on both sides of the River at this thus depriving fort Frances it self and in a secondary sense the whole of the West of any of the Benefit which would result from the utilization of this Power for the development of industries on this Side of the fort in opposing the at tempt of an alien corporation to secure fld divert from this country which should be developed and utilized has been fighting for to local but it has Lone the less been championing the interests of the Canadian people at arge and now that the Public has Icen informed1 As to the Points at is sue and the principle involved there u be a widespread demand that the Dominion government shall refuse to remit the exportation of Power on any such basis As that suggested As by Ontario Minnesota Power it May be possible without to Canadian interests to per Mit a partial use of Canadian Power upon the american Side but from the volume developed at fort Frances there should be retained such an the Borden naval policy not which is represented in the Dominion House by re Borderi and is said to be so much in favor of the Dominion governments naval policy that the Junior intends to shirk in vote in the Hope that he May thereby political thu Board of Trade of that City recently met to consider the

to deter mine what would be a just Price for the Power and to administer tie Issue which has Arisen at fori Frances is one which crops up from time to time in All parts of Canada it is the question whether we shall develop our own National resources or permit them to be tapped and diverted to United states As a general Rule the policy of Keepin Good things for ourselves is one that it is not Only in a com but in a National to in the fort Frances Case this is certainly the right course to it would be a scandalous re Flection upon the Public spirit and foresight of our Public men if in years Tih come the Community of internat ional should be a great Industrial Centre living upon Canadian Power deflected from its proper Channel while fort to Vichom the Oiver properly should remain undeveloped and tit pro fort Frances is More advantageously situated to become a manufacturing Centre to the Canadian West than International Falls is placed to manufacture for Oie United f and if the Canadian share of the Power is held under conditions will permit its use in factories and industries will inevitably come into existence and we sir ail have City where now there is a struggling it is
