summer and as slle has capacity for but siz cars of freight,it would be out of the question to prevent freight congestion on thc route with only a steamer of that size. Oni
comoclation at Picton and because of the greater part of the freight for P. li. Island coming that way the matter was - very urgently . brought to the attention of Mr. Gu- telius who aggreed to keep the Car ‘ ferry steamer on the route, making daily return trips. It is probable that the Stanley will be taken offy the route at an early date. I
This action in having the “Prince
Edward” maintained on this route will be a matter of much satisfac- tion to the public.
There is a strong feeling that oil
account of the splendid warellouse accomodation on the Steam Naviga-~ tion Co’s., wharf that this wharf should be utilized during the sum- mer by thc Government. Mr. Gu- |‘ telius is now in eonununication with the Company in regard to this being done.

which is`bcing considered is that

Hon. J. A. MeNElLl., speaking on the vote for Public Works sald:~ I
In connection with this vote, Il
would like to say a few words especial- - ly as it chiefly concerns the work of my Department. As the Public Ac- counts show, tho expenditure on pub- lic works has been unusually large dur- ing the last year. This was due to the exceptionally wet season nt the beginning of the summer, after consid- erable road work had already been done. It made many ot the roads in the low flat sections, as well as u large portion of the newly made road, almost impassable. It was absolutely* necessary that these roads should be built up and drained to afford some degree oi' comfort and surety in tra- velling. Nearly all these roads are. travelled by our mail couriers and it: was indispensable that they bc put in decent shape. Horetorore very little travelling was absolutely necessary when the condition of the roads wasi unfavorable. People went to the post ofilce on foot or on horseback and the mails were received seldom more than two or three times a week. Now there is a daily mail in nearly every section oi' the country and many oi’ the couri- ers have a long route to travel and it is compulsory. that passable roads he maintained at every season of the year. This is a work' that will have to be continued and is going to cost’ considerable money but every province
ness to seo [or myself as far ns possi- ble tllc conditions of the various roads and to consult with tho engineers of my Department regarding the expen- diture oi public money on \vork which was most necessary.
As you know when wc cattle into
power thc bridges of the Province were in a deplorable condition and u number had to be repaired in a teln- porary manner and many ot these were requiring to be rebuilt last year. After the regular year`s program was about completed, there came the storm and high tide at the last of September which caused such destruction. Hon- orable Members-wili recall this storm and the extraordinary height of the title. In several instances boats were carried completely over bridges. At Darnley Bridge one boat was stopped only by its masts_coming against the telephone wires which held it and pre- vented it from passing over. it is doubtful if ever before in our recollec- tion had a summer tide attained this height of a single storm done so much damage to our bridges. This is the Patript‘s own report on it ut the timez-

roads. lt is a legitimate capital ex-_| penditure and is work for the carrying on of which I would strongly plead for the support ot every member in this house. The honorable member from Tryon complained that we had not done suliicient work on Clark’s Swamp. and many _ot the members feel that more work should have been done in their sections. but I assure them that

“A large quantity ot lumber was

“These posts and lumber are scat-
tered along the opposite shore from Itosebank to the Bridge. It will be col- lected when the weather moderates.
"Mr. Paoli went out in a boat to try
and rescue some ol’ the lumber and had to be rescued himself in a motor boat. The boat was able to sail right up to the oilice door. V
“Mr. Paoli said it was the most try-
ing experience he has had in t he past thirty years.
“From the country reports of dam-

"The Jolmson's River Bridge was
damaged. The approaches were un- derminded making the crossing dang- erous.
PATRIOT. SEPT. 29TH. 1915.
“The wooden crib bridge at Fuller-
ton‘s March was badly damaged by
the force of the heavy seas aiming the gale on Monday. About 2 0 feet of the* -abutment was carried away and the poles, stones, ect., of the embank- ment scattered in all directions. Every endeavor is being made to get repair work in hand at once, but tho diiilculty ol’ procuring labor might' hinder the bridge from being made passable l'or a. few days. This wash- out will cause a considerable amount oi inconvenience to people on that slide ol' the river as it necessitates a long detour. Several other bridges were also damaged, including that over Johnston’s River. the Pisqulll Bridge. which is impassable. St. Pct- cr's Bay Bridge, itnpassable, bridge al St. Andrew’s carried away, one oi the approaches to North Pinette Bridge badly damaged. Mclntyre’s Bridge at New Annan. carried away tho eastern approach to Darnley Bridge. carried away Morris Bridge, Granville. ap- proaches badly damaged. lt is report- ed that Stanley Bridge is also badly damaged. Engineers Shaw and Mc- Kay are both out looking alter the ro- palrs and the damaged bridge will he attended to as quickly as mernend mat- erial cn be gathered.”
This was the condition that laced
us when the heavy fall tpailic was s- hout to begin. Those ca led lor im- mediate ropairs and though honorable members may claim that all work should be done by contract. l submit that on occasions oi' this kind the do- lays incident to calling tor tenders would not be tolerated by a suilerlng public. The work had to be done and the expenditure had to be made _and i
bglieve that Avery reasonable mem- b r in this House will justify that en penditure.
