THE SUBSIDY QUESTION.

THis question is at rest. In view of the statements of Sir Oliver Mowat, in the course of a recent discussion in the Senate, Mr. Premier Peters must find it impossible

to make political capital upon the ground

that an increase of subsidies will be obtained if only his government is return- ed to office. We quote the Montreal

Stars report:

“Sir Mackenzie Bowell called attention reported to the Montreal Witness of the 15th inst., said to have been made by Messrs. Dechene and Turgeon, members of the present Quebec Govern- ment, in which they were alleged to have foreshadowed the abandonment by the Quebec Government of the two principal features of the late Premier Flynu’s finan- cial policy, the conversion of the debt of the province and the readjustment of

to statements

+', vaie

Federal subsidy, the one as calculated to |

increase the debt without increasing the interest charges, and the other as jm- practicable under present unfavorable circumstances. He enquired whetber ihere had been any communications,verbal or Otherwise, between the Local and Federal Governments or the members of either Government with reference to the readjustment of the Federal subsidy which led to the announcement that it was im- practicable under the present unfavorable circumstances, to ask for the fulfilment of the provisions of the resolutions passed at the conference of provincial premiers beld in Quebec in the month of October, 1887, ot which the present Minister of Justice was a member, and which resolutions were confirmed by the Legislature of Ontario and Quebec during the time when the present Minister of Jusiice was Premier of Untario.

‘Speaking to his motion Sir Mackenzie said he wanted to know what

resent unfavorable circumstances which induced members of the Local Government of Quebec to announce the abandonment of this organised reid on the Federal

Treasury agreed upon by the Premiers of |

tive of the provinces in 1887. Not only werethe Provincial Premiers con mitted to this scheme, but the language used by the present Premier of Canada in a speech delivered ia Montreal afier the conference and atelegram sent by himto Premier Mercier during the election cam paign of } y!

L. 91, showed that both he and the L:berai |

party were committed to this policy. Even during the last election Premier Peters of Prince Edward Island speaking on the public platform made the statement that the victory of the Liberal party meant that Prince Edward Island would get the increased Federal subsidy it was justly entitled to.

“In the present Federal Government there were three of the Provincial Prem- iers who were present at the Quebec con- ference and concurred in the resolutions passed. Theo Premier Laurier was coin- mitted to the schemeand the Minister of Justice was one of those who a-sented to the demand being made, The country would te interested to know the development which had resulted in the abandunment of the demand on the Federal Treesury, especially asso many members of the Government had given their support tothe He had always been surprised at Sir Oliver Mowatt’s acquiescence in this demand inasmnch as at the very session when the Legislature of Ontario endorsed the demand proposed to be made in the resolutions the province had several millions to its credit.

*‘Sir Oliver Mowatt said the Government bad received no communicatioas from the Provincial Government on tbe subject, nor did he believe any member of the Govern- ment had. He pointed out that while there was good revson for the passage of the resolutions referred toin 1887, the changed financial conditions of the pro- vinces since that time would warrant a change of view on the subject now.

“Senator Ferguson said that Sir eould thank the Conservative Government in power in 1887 for preventing this or-

scheme.

Oliver

vanized demand from being granted. The whole o/ ject of the passage of those reso- lutions was to create a leeling in the pro-

vinees against the Governmentof Sir John Macdonald.

“ enator Power said thatowing to the wise administration of the affairs of the provinces since L887 by Liberal adminis trations, the assistance then needed from

» Federal Government was not now ne- cessary.

“Sir Oliver Mowat—There has been no

ommunication between the present Gov- ernment of Quebec aud the present Gov-

snment of Canada, and there had been no mmmunication between any members of

the present Governments. He said the . ' . ’ -esent Government because he believed was some communication between

\ir. Mercier and some of the Jate cabinet. He referred amidst laughter tothe Quebee resolutions as very valuable when they were adopted, but so far they had not been acted on.

“After some further remarks f-om Sir Mackenzie Howell, Senator Ferguson said Prince Edward Is aid die r@ want are- adjustment of the :usidies, put would be quite cor eitrf the wresent errangement was carried out. He read a long extract from Hon. Fred Peters f>. tel ng ha'evcn

were the |

days when Mr. Laurier should be placed in power, and sau! this was made for elec ion purposes. Sir Oliver had not done anything for the Province, though he had provided Mr. Peters with a good fat job.”

The great expectations raised by Mr. Premier Peters previous ‘o the election are thus remorseleasiy crushed. There ia to be no readjustmer t—no increase of our subsidy. As both parties in this Province are agreed that the special claims of Prince Edward Island, resultung from excessive railway expenditures in the West, ought to be met by railway extension to Belfast Murray Harbor, New London and other parts of the Province there can be no issue in the approaching election upon that score.

OUR ROADS.

—

From many parts of the country we have the report that “the roads are in a terrible state,” “the roads worse than they are this spring,” “the

roads are scandalous,” “most disereditable

pever were

to the Government,” etc. It is suggested that “the Government want ta have the roads in this state so that they will have an excuse for the expenditure of boodle money upon the roads just before the elec- tion.” However this may be, it is certain that very little work has been done upon the roads throughout our Province and done

| that which has been done has been

There is, indeed, much dissatisfaciion with the mis

badly, and at the wrong time.

management of the road machines. Those machines, it is admitted, save labor and make good reads when operated at the proper time by men of intelligence who know how to manage them. But the Government has unfortunately, in too many cases, placed them in the

hands of political hangers-on instead of in

the hands of men who know and care how

to make roads. The consequence is seen

} } in the shameful condition into which

many of our roads have been allowed to lapse.
