5 _ Ja Sta,—The question as to the manner in ich the affairs of this province have been sdministered by the Governmeat for the st nine years calls for the best attention of the elestors. The party should be put oat of court for the pregeat in order that the country’s interests may becandidly weigh- ed. twill be @ poor bargain to support a party at the expense of the country.

As a help to the electors in dealing with the question before them, let me refer to & matter of some importance which hap- pened about the time of the last geaeral election and which has escaped notice 89

far. It may serve as an index of the wasteful management on the part of the men now in power. A cry was raised at that time that the country

would be enricbed andthe farmers wauld have a market at their own loors by 4

fortunate discovery of coal made in the region to the reer of Wood Islands. Phe Gevernment jumped on the back of this Trojan horse. An amount was putin the estimates to prosecute the work. 4n

epgine and drill were imported aud set to

work boring for coal and the work was

continued while the election was yong on. But it soon st yppe 1;—there was no coal. In the I slative Library there was before the}

coneulte money. But they we.e in haste and not delay to read it. For this lic work—this practical joke inflicte:

rut . the coantry—the Goverameat paid out $1,250 of the people’s money (see Public Accounts 1897) but not one dollar of their; wn money so far as app2ars was put in} he venture. There was oo report made. |

Now this lavish expenditure was not made for want of baving uses for the money. ‘hey bad before and since put al! their powers to work to grind money out of the electors. Land was taxed, income, banks, and corporations, &c., but all to no pur- pore to the country. They could not stop the deficit. Piles ofdeficits were rolled up until now a mountain of debt has been; raised—oyer half a million dcllars. It; may intereat you to reflect on some of the| good uses to which the money they wast-}
