The Conseryatives Did the Work.

Be.rast axp Murray Harsor RatLway is a matier about which Sir Lou's Davies has shown an amcunt of weakness and indecision that is extraordinary,—even for him. In 1890 he made a timid reference to the question of some kind of railway in the south. It was during the Jast eees'oa of Parliament, before the election of 1891, and he made great use of this advocacy during the campsigon of that year, When the elee- tious were over he never mentioned the claim ot Pr:nce Edward Island for rail- ways unulibe maiter bad been forced on the atiention of the Ministry and Parlia~ ment by Senator Ferguson, who struck a blow straighs from the skhouldcr in tavor Of & railway direct from Charlotte. own tv Murrey arbor. Here is an ex- tract trom a speech made by the Senator n Charlottetcun in December, 1894:—

THE

And I may say further, that law etropgly opposed to a plan advocated by Mr. Davies in the Cemmons for the coupsiruciion or ibe Cruces ine only, boving iis terminus ear Wood Isiaude. Suche line would be ot Lo bevefit io tbe Belfast aud Murray Har- bord siricts. Io fact the veiy proposi- tion of it was insulting and injurious, and showed plainly that its propounder had giveo the question no earefui considera tion.”

Durieg the spring and summer of 1895 Meeers Martin, Jenkine, Huat and McLeao visited Ottawa at their own expense and ably eupporied Senator Ferguson’s railway policy, which embraced a direct line from Charlottetewn to the south and six other branch lives in various parte of the Prevince, Mr. A-© MeDonald brought the matter before Parliament in an able speech, which foreed the unfa bful and halting member for Queen’s to cease deriding the claims of the Province, and aban- don bis silly proposition to build a use-; less cross line only. The correctness cfour statementis amply proved by the following extract from Sir Louis

This extract solicitude at that time wes to prevent th: building of the Bridge as well ae direci line to the South, and tbat he only desist- ed from his efforts becau-e the * poll ticiaus” had made the peuple believe thai something better was obtainable. Despice Sir Louis’ attempts to throw cold wa'er on the question of branch railways for the Island, the Conservative administration acceeded to the requests Of Meesre. Fergu- son, Prowse, MacDoaald,, Martin and othere, and gave notic: in tke Commons of the following resolption:

1. The Minister of Railways and Canale may ‘ocate, conetruct, equip and work in Prince Edward Ieland tne follows ing liaes of railway, exteusions or braoch 4 lines :— ‘

(a.) From Southport to Murray Harbor South, with # cross line conneciing with} the Prince Edward Iclana Ratiway, be. tween Peake’s and Cardigan Statiour, touching at or near Moatague Bridge ;

_(e.) From Souris er Harmony Siatior to Elmira;

(c-) From a point between Royalty Juaction and Yor Stations te Cove Head, aud thence to Oyster Bed Bridge ;

(d.) From Emerald Junction to Stanley Bridge, touching at or near Clifton ;

(e.) From Summersite to Rich moud Bay ; (f) From some point at or near

O’Leary’s Station, to some point on the western coast, between Brae and Cape Welfe ;

(g.) From North Wiltebire to Victoris.

Sir Louis Davies coatrivuted bis ful) share to the obstruction which prevented Sit Charies Tupper and Sir Mackeuze Bowell from carrying this resolution ivio law during the seseion of 1896.

In introducing the proposition te build the Southern Railway, regarding which little or nothing was done uotil the eve of anetber general election, the Ministers io charge of the bill excused themselves for doing anything onthe ground that the late government Lad commitied tbe country to the Southern Railway,—vwhiie Mr. MeMillao, one of their prominent Supportere, gave them credit for stoppiog the other six branches !

The Conservative party is entitled to every moreel of credit that attaches to the promotion of the Southera Railway, while Sir Charles Tupper is ready and williog to proczed with the other branches as roou a8 Le is entrasted with power.
