LEGISLATURE,

Debate on ithe Budget Continued,

SPEECHES OF MESSRS. ARSEN- AULT AND BIRCH,

Forcible Arraignment jof the Gov ernment—Pineau’s Exp:anation.

Mr. Arsenault, woo followed Mr. Peters on the budge’, said he would con- fine himself to the Department of Pablic Works. It has peen said time and again that our public works were greatly ne- glected. There is no doubt that our roads are ina sad plight. The population of the province is largely madeup of farm~ ers. What is there for farmers to enjoy more than good roads and bridges? Peo ple living in cities and towns huve not the alightest idea how much the poor farmers have to suffer for waut of good roads. What do wefind overthe Island in the spring and fall of the year, and in fact at this time of the year? Why, at certaia places at the present time it is dangerous to travel in wagons at night. He, of course, spoke principally for the district he represented. He had no hesitation in saying that his district was grossly, and he might say maliciously, neglected in this respect, Under the Ccnservative Government justice was meted out ot to Tories and Grits alike. Now what do we see. In many cases joba have been given privately to Governmest sapporters aod heelers aod in @ great mauy cases paid for and the jobs not done. One instance he could cite,: he found by the report of one of the supervisors that a certain bridge called the Sosime bridge was built last summer at acost of $60. He had iton the best authority that this bridge was not sold by auctiou although advertised. In this case on theday of the sale a half dczen people were as- sembled on the spot. After waiting for some time the supervisor came slong ac- companied by two men. Tne supervisor stopped at the spot aad said that on ac- eount of thesmailnamber o¢ people the sale would not take place that day. After the crowd dispersed the eupervisor came along with the two men andthe resul; was that the job was performed by those two men. Now let us take the South West bridge in Lot 16. He bad asked for some papers in relation te the expenditure of $18000 at one time and $34.00 st another time There mignt have been tenders for this work or it might have b en sold at public sale, but as he had not yet seen the $papers he asked for he inferred ihat this work was given in 8 private way. He might cite also some more jobs where huaareds of dollars ‘might just as weil have been thrown io the fire. They pad $125 fora right-of-way on Lot 14, about two or three years ago, and to this day they have not spent one cent towards opening this road, and what is worse, they dare not open this road. Isit not a pecu liar state of affairs wheu a government pays $125 for a right-of-way aod dare nov open, or are dared by the owuver of the land, to open this road. Another road was opeued five or six years ago on Lot 14, that they called a continuatiou of the St. Gilbert road. About $160 was spect on that road that year, and in 1897 about $38 more was spent, making in all about $200. Nowwhat are the facts: This road has never been carried through to its des! ination and it stops ata place in the woods called asugarcamp. So far this road has served two men to nau! their firewood in winter and to go ‘o and from their sugar camp in the sgricg. This piece of road might well be called the 3. E. Gallant boodle road. The Gove:nment praise their road machioes and say they are making better roads tban can be done by statute labor. But the road machines

are the greatest curee to our ruads tbat eyer etruck this province. He had seen road machines at work

for the last three years in hia district and had taken particular notice of the parts of the roads they were worked on and he must eay that there is not One foot of any of those parts of roads that is nct ip & worse condition to-day than they were previous to using the road machine. He bad several times in this House cited tne Western Road, especialy the part between

Richmond and Miscouche, the principal highway fer the people from ‘Tignieh and all places

west of Richmond going to Summerside and points east. But from the time he spoke of it, three years ago, to this day not one dollar of special grant money has been expended. Is it any wonder the peo- ple all over the province and especially in Prince County are getting disgusted with this kind of Jegielation? Why was $50,- 000 expended on roads and bridyes in 1892 when only $38,000 was voted for that year? Why was pone of this money spent on the Western road? Where was it all apent? Who got the benefit of this tremendous jncrease jo that particular year 2? He knew there was an election that year and that the Liberals were returned by a handsome majority. No doubt this ac- counts for this extraordinery expenditure, In the year 1297 there was anocher elec« tion. What took place in the C. P. W. Department ? In that year the seam of $30,000.00 was voted for expenditures on rights-of-way, roads and bri . Would you believe that in that year the enormous sum of $47,152 21 was spent, no not

spent but boodled,in this department during 1897. This isthe way the deficite are

Government so adapted to boodling as th Commissioner of,Public Works’ . and no branch of this office like the roads brauch. ‘T'he financial standing of this province bas been fully shown up by several of the hon. members of the Op- position, suffise it for him to say it is in a very precarious condition. Why goon

office

piling deficit after deficit year after vear? The hon. member from St. Peters’ hes oace more had the audacity to refer tothe Montreal Star charging the French population of Canada with beiag disloyai aod in proof of his contention he points ‘o the hon. junior member for Tignish as having Jeft the Conservative ranks on

that xaecouat. Now he(Mr. Arsenault)

wished to tell the bos. memberthat he was just as loyal as the hon. member from

Tigaish and the hon. member for St.

Peter’s. He would go further and say

that he had aatake in this country and his friend the bon. member from Mis- couche hasa stakein this country aod

this is more than Pineau has, Why bring this up again ? Because the Star has charged ‘Tarte, Bourasag and a

few more rattled-headed Freach Canadians with disloyalty which they well deserved. Thecry of the Liberals is that the whole French’ population of Canada is disloyal. Before resuming his seat Mr. Arsnault said he could not let the occasion pass without referring to the conduct of the junior member fer Tignieh inthis House. He thoughts that long ere this Mr. Pineau would have risen ia his place and explained his conduct in regard to taking his seat on the Government side of the House wheo he had /een elected supporter of the Conservative party. We are all anxious!v awaiting his statement or explanation. If the hoo. member cap justify his actions why delay so long in speaking? Why keep this House in suspense and himself an object of ridicule? He asked the hon. member to give this House the long-promised ex>lanation.

Mr. Pineau followed Mr. Ar-enartt, He said it gave him much pleasureto say a few words in reference to the charges— the unjust chargee—that had been made against him—charges that he considered beyond the bounda of parliamentary rules. The Oppoeition had made charges, aud some of their statements were so had that they had totake them back. ‘he pub- lic accounts showed asurplus cf $5,000, and that was one of the reasons he changed his poiitics. He bad the tuterest of his conetituents more at heart than had those hon, members who would falsity the statements. When the Conserva- tives asked him to contest the election he said he did not wish to enter politica, but they almost compelled him to go in. He tought a hard battle. Bat afier he was elected they wanted to get rid of him, The first story they put 10 circu- lation was that be was going to accept the position of Speaker. He had to call meet- logs to denounce thie charge. Then they toid him he would bave to get out of the way at the next election.

Mr. Arsenau!t rosetoa pcintof order und explained tuat the meetings called by Mr, Pineau were for organization and they were notattended by thas gentleman.

Mr. Pineau said he bad called more than

one meeting. He had called meet- ings ts» deny the charge. He said to himeelt tbat if he was

going to be used that way it was time for him toleave the party. He had gone‘in with men who would recogniz? bim, He might have said he was going to Paris ; but ne bad not gone to Paris. If he wen away it was his own private business. If be went away he accomplished his busi nesa. On his way home whea he put his foot on the steamer Cuptain Cameron said be had a telegram for him from A. A. McLean.

Mr. McLean rove to a point of order and eaidthat vo such telegram was sent and Captain Camercn never Wid Pineau he had such a telegram. ;

Continuing, Mr. Pineau raid that res~ p ctsble members on the Opposition side would not make the charges against bim, but the hon, member for Belfast would take hold of them. He (Mr. Pineau) would put his political character against that of Mr. McLean.

He eaid to Captain Cameron that he could {

le.that man know be was here. At Summerside he was met by @ delegation who told himto go to the office of Mr. A. A. McLean, io Charilottetewn, where he would be handsomely rewarded for the abuse he had received.

Mr. McLean again arose to 4 point of order and denied that any telegram was sent to Captain Cameron or that Captain Cameron ever etated to Pineau that he received one. Captain Cameron is not a man who is in the habit of stating false- hoods, Neither did any deputation wait on Pineau in Summerside. Let him name the parties. He gives no justification of his conduct. Will he devy that be wrote toafriend of his as follows: ‘I suppose some people are mad at me for doing what I have done. I could not help myself. It is whatevery man is doing—lvoking out for himself.”

Mr. Pinzau said he was sorry he had not proceeded to Mr. McLean’s office and got the money and Jaid it on his desk. But he was notin the market as they thought he was. Probably he was in Ottawa and probably he was not. But he never spoke one word to Sir Louis BH. Davies nor to his secretary; he sever

received one cent from Sir Louis Davies nor his secretary o0r any one else for what be had done. It had

been crarged that be had no right to his sess in this Honse and bad loat the con-

fidence of his conetituents. But he cbal- Jenged Mr. McLean to resign his seat aod he (Mr. Pineau) would do the same and

more interest in his district than eome other members of the House. If he voted with the Opposition the Gov- erpment would be defeated and that would mean an election. An appeal to the peo- ple would mean an additional expense and would be increasing the debt of the

province, There were to be lwo more sittings of this Parliament, and an election

would mean an unnecessary expense. It was not a question for the member for Belfast to decide, it was a question bre tween himself and constituents. If he did wrong they had the remedy in their own hands. He hada _ loag petition; he had also letters from good Conservatives

what he had done. Mr. Birch—Name letters.

Mr. Pineau said they would be found in the district when the proper time comes. lt was not his intention to speak tonight. But he did not wish to allow himself to be branded as suggested by the bon. member from Wellington. They said that he had been bribed ; but he had not received one cent from either the Locel or Dominion Government in, consideration of the stand he had taken.

Mr. Birch on rising said he was much

surprised, even shocked, at the very dis~ courteous remark made by the hon. mem- ber for St. Peter’sin reference to the sudden illness of the bon. member for New London. If the milk of human kindness flowed through Mr. Peters as did through any ordinary human being

He would like the bon. gentleman to ex-
