There were days ill tlle_ Liberal regime that would go down ill the history of the Province as a record oi’ extravagence. a record of inability and a record of dissatis- faction on the part of the people. They had witnessed them go on year after year with oft-repeated promise for the betterment of the country, promises never fulfilled; and year af- ter year saw the finances of the Pro vince drifting from bad to worse. At the end of twenty years of-Liberal mismanagement the debt had grown to over a million dollars and the peo- ple then realized how urgent it was to return to power a party that would stem that tide of appalling extravag-

The Conservative Government, ilow- ever, with a courage which the coun- try alld even the Leader of the Opposi- tion himself no doubt admired, shoui dered the tremendous responsibility and undertook to reduce_that huge debt. They did not seek to sllirk it, although the debt was due to none of their iaxity; but they realized fully the magnitude of the task that lay
like fashion to grapple with it. Dur- ing ali the years of Liberal rule there was never ally hope of a satisfactory situation, and the country was grad- ually approaching bankruptcy. When a similar state of affairs existed in any ordinary commercial enterprise, ,tile speaker said, tile directors invariably

And accordingly, immediately they had it in their power to do so. they appolllted their "new manager." Tile
