Sawdust -
(Continued from page 1) any trespasing thereon. COOPERATION NEEDED
Hon. Dougald MacKinnon said the act preventing the dumping of sawdust in streams was a fed- eral statute in the beginning. He could not see that the prevent'on of mill owners from dumping the saw dust in a stream would work any great hardship.
He felt it was a matter of co-
operation. He assured the As- sembly that the government was mot, as suggested, destroying an industry for the sake of:sport. He assetted that it was a maiter of stubborness on the part of a few mill owners who in most cases were the best off to afford some eliminatiion method. Mr. MacKinnon told of bringing biologists from St. Andrews to ex- plore Campbell's Pond at New Glasgow. When the research men ‘examined the area they found no great amount of fish. Then they discovered that the bottom of the stream was covered with a layer of sawdust. ‘‘We were told then and there that we could ex- pect no propagation of trout un- til the sawdust was removed,” said the Minister. The act was still under dis cussion when the House adjourn- ed at 5:30 p.m. It will be brought into committee this morning when the House meets at 10.30.
Conservatives (Continued from page 1)
*| R. Foster. Mr. Farmer’s nomi- | *| nation was moved by City Coun-
cillor A. J. Haslam and second- ed by Wilfred ,Driscoll and Mr.
ed by Ivan Maund, seconded by Benjamin Gallant and supported by Edwin MacRae. : When the results of the bal- lots -were announced, Mr. Mc- Quaid moved that his colleague's nomination be made unanimous. The count. was not announced. R. R. BELL ‘ : Speaking briefly, Opposition Léader R. R. Bell told the dele- gates to the convention that they had selected two ‘“‘splen- did’’ candidates. In Col. Stew- he said, the Conservative arty leader, Mr. Shaw, will find a splendid Provincial Treds- urer, one who will put this pro- vince on a sound financial basis. ““T have been softening the present Provincial Treasurer up considerably in the Legislature
the last few days,"’ he said jokingly. : Continuing, Mr. Bell said
there ‘“‘are signs that the pres- ent Government is losing its hold’ on the people of Prince Edward Island. They. were very cocky before the last Federal
,) election but you never saw a
sorrier looking crowd after- ward. From then on they took a different tack and started condemning Diefenbaker and the Conservative Government in general.”
Conservative Party leader W. R. Shaw told the delegates that they had selected two excellent candidates and also paid high tribute to Mr.» McQuaid for his contribution to the welfare of the Conservative Party.
CAPABLE QUARTET
Speaking of the Conservative members..;in' the Legislature, Mr. Shaw told the delegates that “we have a quartet thére that are quite capable of hand- ling the other 26 members.” “In the, forthcoming Provin- cial election we will be offer- ing the best candidates ever to enter the field of Provincial politics in the history of this province,"’ the Conservative party leader said.
Referring to rural electrifica- tion, Mr. Shaw said “I was on a delegation almost 20 years ago that urged rural electrification, Not too many years ago the Liberals went up west and promised. to electrify every- thing from the barnyard. roos- ter to the distant hills but they
still working on a five year plan.”’. z
The Liberals are always talk- ing about unemployment and inflation, Mr. Shaw said. ‘We will always have these these conditions. These things come and go but conditions will im- prove pnder the present Fede- ral Government and we should not worry about it.”
In conclusion, Mr. Shaw told the delegates that ‘‘when we go to the people of the province, fwe will have a new policy that will have an appeal and_ hope for. better *hings to come.” COL. STEWART :
In his acceptance speech,. Col. Stewart said he was very proud that he had old friends to come

“When I was a you ‘er’ I went over the Patriot Office and bought. some papers to sell to the Conservative members of the Legislature. They were so dis- gusted that the son of a Conser- vative would be selling Patriots that ‘they bought them.all from me in one full swoop. I immed- iately went back and bought some more and that is how I got started in business.”
In a more serious vein the Colonel took the present govern- ment to task for the poverty of imagination they had used in the past few years in letting the Province’s three industries drift along without a head or guid- ance. “We must come forward,” he concluded, ‘‘with a policy bas- ed on sound principles and ad- ministration.”
Mr. Farmer spoke very brief- ly, telling the delegates that as he was relatively new in the field of provincial politics he did wot wish to make any statement at thé present time. He express- ed his Appreciation to the con- ventioh for showing their faith in him and said he would be in a better position to. speak at a later date after he had time to give careful consideration to the various. aspects of provincial politics.

President Beagan
informed the meeting that the route of parade for the St. Patrick’s Day parade had to be changed out of necessity.
After leaving the hall on Graf- ton Street there will be a stop at the Soldiers Monument, then the parade will continue on to Queen Street to the Holy Re- deemer Church. After the ser- vice the parade will march by Queen, Euston,. Great George and Grafton Streets to the hall.
President Beagan also stated that tickets for the Society's play, Laughing Irish Eyes, are now on sale in numerous out- lets in the city: He urged the co-operation of all to make it\a suceess.

A question relative to the Last

ing of the streams from the owner was the proper procedure. He said when the government acquired ownership, all kinds of complications could trop up, in- cluding fencing, property dam- age claims etc.
SHOULD GO FURTHER
R.R. Bell noted that there was splendid fishing on the Island but felt the government should go further in building more dams. He thought it would. be a good idea to display information in the fyarious tourist resorts telling visitors of the location of the best fishing areas. He also thought that signs should be placed giving direction to these ponds. Mr. Bell complained that the water is let out of Camp bell’s dam each year allowing all the fish to escape.
CATS TERMED PREDATORS
One of the sections of the act that caused more than usual dis- cussion was the matter of whe- ther cats should be considered a predator and be shot when absent from the owner's pr per- ty. Premier Matheson said he lik- ed cats and would prefer to see; the section deleted. ,
