Liberal Policies Under Fire At EllersliiMeeting

Enthusiastic Reception Accorded Conservative Candidate And Hon. J. D. Stewart, Provincial

Leader, Whose

ture Of The Evenind.

The largest and most orderly of my meeting during the campaign in

the Second District of Prince was held at Ellerslie on Wednesday ev- ening. The issues perzoliiiiig to the forthcoming by-elccticri were ably discussed by the different speakers and were listened t0 with keen at- wntion by an audience ivhich Killed the coinnioclious hall to overflowing. Each speaker in turn congiitiilated the people of Ellcrslie on their splend- ld hall, which is the finest in West Prince.

Mr. Percy Adams very capably pre- sided.

On the platform were Mr. Shelton Sharpe, Conservative candidate. Hon. '.t'ha.ne A. Campbell, Liberal candid- lte, Hon. Premier Lea. Hon. J. D.

F‘. Arsonault. M. L. A., and Ml’. J. F‘. Arnett.

' .Mr. Campbell was the first speaker ind received an attentive hearing. In his opening remarks he charged the Conservative spmkcrs with hav-

and not cost the people one cent. The question of using Island gravel was also mentioned. The Attorney Gen- eral endeavored to defend his De- partment against the criticism of the opposition speakers. His department, he said, was greatly handicapped un- til the appointment of Mr. Trainer, by having no system of organized police. There was no responsible head. Each department has been working independently. Now that there are so many motor vehicles on the road something was necessary. The passing of the act to have Pro- vincial Police was the greatest for-‘ ward step and on a par with other progressive steps of the Government. In summing up Mr. Campbell said he could not see any advantage of electing Mr. sharp to fill the vacancy for just one more year, after which tne electors would have the oppor- tunity of turning out the Government if they saw fit.

Mr. Sharpe's Address

the Opposition talk," said Mr. Camp- bcll, “you would think there were punchcons of rum floating about the country. There may be some rum in certain obscure places. but as an intelligent audience you must know that there is less intempcrance.“ At the Charlottetown exhibition when there were 20.000 people in the city, there were only 1i arrests in that week. The speaker quoted from a. rcirort of a Social Service Council held in New Brunswick. on the state of things under Government Con- trol, andymnde an excellent ap- peal on behalf of prohibition. Speaking on the road policy, Mr. Cairpboll said that the Opposition started out to say the road policy was no: good but now “they do not even dare to say so." He referred to some of the local works as having been done under the present government. He also touched briefly on the fin- ancial record. The money borrowed

i Mr. Sharpe received a tremendous

li-ound of applause as he came to the _t'ront of the platform. In his open- ing remarks he expressed pleasure :ar, seeing such a large audience and ifelt. sure they would feel well re- paid for coming, after they had heard Hon. Mr. Lea and Hon. Mr. Stew- art. He noticed that Mr. Campbell was acquiring more and more of Prem- ier Leo's speech as he went along. He was proving an apt pupil of the Premier's. The speaker denounced the present Government, for not keep- ing their election pledges. The right thinkng people had voted for Pro- hibition thinking the amendments promised would be carried out but no attempt has been made to ful- fill those promises. Mr. Lea had said there was more evidence of temper- cnce. but they had found it neces- sary to send policemen to keep ord- z-r at picnics. In the old days there

dealt with and the failure of Messrs Saunders. and Lea to come to an agreement on the matter was severe- ly criticised by the speaker, who pointed out that according to Pre- mler Lee's own “br-ief" that we have ‘seen the losers of three or four mil- lion dollars on that account. It was up to the people at this election to show their disapproval of such actions by their votes on October 21st. The Premier had contended that the Conservative party had not acted ac- cording to Hoyle when they con- tested the seat in Second Prince but Mr. Sharpe said that the people had o perfect right to have the choice of selectlng their own representative.

Premier Lea

The Premier in defending the ac- cusations made by Mr. Sharpe on the way the Prohibition law is enforced, said, "anyone would think We creat- ed the low. instead of it being the law when we took office." I-Ie blam- ed the Stewart Government for the present state of affairs because they had come out with Government Con- trol for their policy. "We have done our best," declared the Premier.

He was surprised at Mr. Sharpe attacking the Provincial Police as that progressive move was left to this Government io adopt. and did not cost the country one cent, with the exception of Mr. Trainer's sal- ary.

In speaking on roads Mr. Lea blam- ed the dry season for the rough roads and said it was untrue that the young men had to go abroad to earn their taxes. as every man can get work on the roads. (“Yes Liberals." from the audience.)

Mr. Lea produced from his pocket a sample of Island gravel mixed with eight percent asphalt which they had reason to suppose would make 300d Dennanent roads.

Voice: "High time!"

The speaker paid Mr. Bennett a. very high tribute when he stated that he did not think for one mom- ent that ths Prime Minister would

said the speaker. "I would be a poor

Province if I did not stand by the de- c‘sion of the people. (Applause)

In speaking on the road policy Mr. Stewart did not think that lawyers were the best Judges of that quest- ion. He did not agree with Mr. Camp- bell that the roads were better than ever they were. Since the hlgl-iway improvement scheme was inaugura- ted the roads have never been worse. This Government may have good machinery but; they will never‘ have good roads unless -they have a Pat- rol system and keep the holes filled up. The widening of the road was

the only commendable bit of work that was done to justify the cost off the expensive machinery. These‘ machines only have a certain lifo so; that there should be a capital ln-' vestment to replace the machinery.

Touching briefly on the financial issue the speaker gave figures which shoived convincingly the increase in,

quoting from the auditors report on page l8 of the Provincial report, Mr. Stewart gave the following: Blanchet debt, 1924, $1.549 526. Scarth Poole debt i927, $2,020,660. Conservative increase in four years. $471092. - . Debts at end of 1929, $2,558,140. Showing an increase under Lib-
