than by the he admitted that some of the Western provinces might have taken a dislike to private ownership because of the monopoly exercised by the some years however that Road was not under the control of the rail Way Mckenzie believed in private ownership of rail ways under control by Mckenzie said that he was not convinced that the legality of the agreement was above in the Legal opinions read by the Sinis Ter of railways yesterday Only coun Sel for the grand trunk had expressed certainty that the shareholders meeting was quite Brit ish counsel in expressing their Opin Ion had seemed to Mckenzie to Many loopholes by which to escape from Postove pronouncement on the Power to ratify the main object of the present said was ratification of the he questioned very much if parliament had Power to ratify the As a Law yer he questioned if the property of and placed citizens of great Britain under that Legal could be disposed of by legislation of the Canadian House of the grand trunk did not pay its three years it was Esti mated that would be needed to put it in to decent three times that amount would to needed its acquisition a bad bar Fielding said it was unfortunate for the people when Ever the grand trunk came up the government was in a tremendous the government has Dis covered that it was paying for a rail Way it had not Reid had spoken of the Neces Ity of correcting two errors in the schedule to the act of last that is All that is Fielding we can agree help the government to Correct its but if that was Why should it have been necessary to open up the whole question again by asking parliament to ratify the agree such an action on the part of the government gave Rise to suspicion suspicion that there was More behind the Hill than the parliament had struck out a clause providing for Loans by the govern ment to the Hoard of management of the grand there was a provision in the agreement which was very similar to that clause in the if correction of a couple of errors was All that was Fielding thought there would be no difficulty in securing an unanimous opposition unduly Doherty thought there was a disposition to attach too much significance to this particular it appeared to be inspired by the suspicion that there must be something Schind apparently innocent in reference to the legality of the grand trunk shareholders so Long As Canada has decided to i Caire the it was important there should be no question As her title to that the Olla now before the House would re move any doubt of Doherty declared that the Par ocular shareholders who claimed they lad not been Given sufficient notice lad no right to a vote under the grand trunk organization they had been Given Legal notice Hirough an advertisement in the can Ida the minister of Justice pointed out hat the shareholders referred to by Mckenzie had not suffered any interference with their actual prop the Canadian government had guaranteed the debenture Stock held to the great Western therefore the Only grievance which these shareholders might possibly take to the courts would resolve it self into a complaint that an Over whelming majority of their fellow had accepted a govern ment guarantee for the Stock they held without prejudicing the value of that second Reading the Only occupation which share holders of the great Western would have at the said do would have been to sit Down and watch themselves getting the guarantee of the the clause in the grand trunk acquisition authorizing the government to lend Money to the Board of Man had not been passed it the last the clause in the agree ment was it authorized the Board of management to borrow from the government if the government desired to there was no obligation on the government to lend Money to the
