t
in the address reference was made tu
the retum to Canada of the Duke
und Duchess of Connaught. This wus,
ns it should `j‘be. “Canada and its
differulit lwovinccls had alwuys been
noted for their loyalty to the flrit-
ish Empire and had on all occasions
given evidence of their respect to the
representative of the King. About s
vcnr ago the people of Canada sau'
lit to e¥Dl'eHs their loyalty in ii more
tnngible form when they voted tlie‘
mm el some elilmy-live million .lol-|
lnrs for the building of first-class
worships in order to_strcngthen l.lie`

_,AGRICULTURE
hlrtv vesrs’ experience that in the'
history of the province last season
was the most unfavorable to the'
maintenance nf roads. These circum-'
stances taken into consideration, tlief
Government had every relisoli to be
flrntifled. 'As soon -ns the snow was
of the ground the roadmnsters wero
at work with their own men and
money and did wonders. He visited
the diBlZl‘iCf- and found that thc road-|
masters, with very little nid from
the Department, had made roads'
which wcrc far better than he had
anticipated. Under the admin stra-l
tion of the Liberal Government, it
was ii well known fact, the money;
hat the farmers had paid in for the
"C'f\LLf<l;1S Lllllll_l.r
given to the teachers and they had
equivalent supplements also given £0
them. Hut since that time, during
the term of the last Government,
those bonuses had been swept away,
and that supplement to a large ex-
tent had also been swept away. The
consequence of the reduction bv the
muneration of the teacher was that
the people lost interest and confid-
ence and also began to reduce the
teachers' salaries. The teachers
themselves ,then lost confidence and
many of the best of their teachers
left the Island and' sought employ-
ment elsewhere at that remuneration
which they were entitled to but were
prevented from receiving here thro-
ugh the instrumentality of the Gov-
ernment. Since that time the pre-
sent Government had come into DOW-
er, and immediately they had en-
deavoured to raise the salaries of
the teachers. _
FACTS INCONTROVERTIBLE.
They heard a great deal about ex-
cessive taxation‘ but he did not be-
lieve that they were so excessively
taxed as some people would have
them believe. If they were compared
with Other provinces oflthe dominion
he believed that the probability was
that their taxes would be found to
be not as high as those of the other
places. The Government had en-
deavoured by perseveraiice hy tlictl
and ability to accomplish n revenuel
whch never existed before in this
province. ‘He was not sure that be
could attribute that to the present
Government, ~hut he suid, and said
it strongly, that at the head of ther
Government existed a -gentleman wlio}
in the face of the strongest oppos-
tlon, could go to Ottawa and re-
ceive $lfr‘),0fJ0 from the Dominion
Governlment, and distribute it broad-
cast over the whole country fur the
benefit of the people. Those were
facts that could not be controverted,
The result had been that the teach-
ers of this province, some six hund-
red, had received the sum of $45,000
more in salaries. It mount a great
deal to them. It meant something
like $75 more to each of them. The

OTTAWA, March 18-The Canadian
Northern Railway interests will have
to throw much more light on their
operations during the last few years
before they can. get aid from parlia-
ment. Tliat is the situation as it
stands tonight following a government
caucus at which there was the freest
possible expression of opinion on the
part of Conservative members.
The Government forces li-unllly say
that they “ure from Miseourl.". Tbat
they must be shown and in that they
very largely reflect the general at-
titude of the Government. The day
when aid might be had for the asking
is gone in Canada as far as the roll-
roads are concerned. The ll. N. R.l
has perhaps unwillingly cllailged pro-
cedure ln this country. Wncu the ap-
plication _f_or__a_nond_ _cllsrantee __ _was
laid before the government a week or
ten days ago there was :ln ilnmediate'
request for n statement from the rail-
way the press bureau of 'he McKen-
zie Mann interests had it already and
through the daily press presented a
column and a half of figures end-
" ' l i
CONSIDERED IN
iing. In other days that would have
probably turned the trick. ln this ili-
stanre it had absolutely the opposite
effect.
Individual members were not long
in analysing the statement and show-
ing that it told nothing of the rail-
\Vuy’s finances. Light., more light,
was the cry. The MacKenzie Mann in-
terests have been doling oilt informa-
tion little by little. This did not
satisfy and investigators were sent
by the Government to the -bead offices
of the (T. N. ll. at Toronto. They
are still nt work there. Now it is
found tliut to go properly into de-
tails of thia great financial concern-
allled companies of one kind nlid an-
other will take weeks if not months.
In addition to the financial mut-
ters to he cleared ilp there is also
to he an inquiry into the physical
condition of the road. The caucusl
which was held today hacked the Gov-
ernment to the fllllest degree in all
steps tbnt would make clear the act-
ual situation with which parliament'
statements that skillfully told notli-`
must yet deal. What muny members

what are the Canadian Northern mug-
nates really to do in this their emer-

and Sir Donald Mann put forward

:now ask the country to furnish for
Itheir greatest venture. [fi the Dom-
inion is to be their backer to so large
an extent what will they do them-

that appeals to the lliirty very galler-

satisfactory and nroflt-able would be was, that the revenue the Liberals|
beneficial not only to the farmer butileft was what the Government had
us well to the whole province st_
large. The Government, through its
Department of Agriculture, which
was so ably conducted bv his Hon-
ollrable friend Mr. McKinnon. had
certainly done s great deal for 112-
rlculture since the present Govern-
ment came into Dower, two years
ugo. At that time things were al-
together different from what they
were now. It was true that the late
Government had attempted to do
something in aid of the ind-usl2\'Y.bl1t
what they had done was entlrelv dif-|
ferent to what the present was doin sr.-
In fnct, all the agricultural lnsltruc-
tion that over ths Llfhlsral party gave]

crime from Ontario, where soil ‘and
climate and general conditions were
ull different. The laws that they
would lnv down there would he tota-
llv unsuited to conditions which pre-
vsiled here. To make the matter
clear, be would state that he attend-
cd some of the lectures given by
these "imported" instructors and he
rnrnembered that they laid consider-
lible emphasis on the growing 0!
ensilnke corn. The cultivation of
that used to occupy a great deal ‘
time. That was not so today. During
the past winter he had the pleasure
of walking around his district with
one of the present instructors. Tbat»
Hentlemnn ' stated that had*
lt. not been for ensllage corn the
fllllrymen of Ontario would fare bad-
ly; at the same time he went on to
point out that this province was' ai-
tozether unsuited to the growing of
tlint corn. Now, if that knowledge
had been ‘imparted to the farmers
years ago, ‘as it would have been
given to them if the instructors had
received their 'training in ou_r own'
province, many of the farmers w0\\ld
have been seed money and labour.
The Leader aI the Opposition thou-
ght that the Government was not do-
lfil the rigbttbing when he took the l
hon of this ovlnca from the short;

our nvvu couries here. He dflslreed
entirely in f. ll matter. They did not
started with. The present Govern-'
ment had succeeded through -different
delegations that had gone to Ottawa
in obtaining a great manv concess-
ions. In the first place, they had
$l00.000 added to the sulildy, while
another iiiportnnt vote was fourteen]
or fifteen thousand dollars for public
roads. They had obtained another,
important concession, namely- direct
communication between _our province
and the mainland by the building of
the car ferry, This was one nf the'
most important things that tho Is-,
land had got since Confederatloml
and they awaited with interest the.
inauguration- of the service, 'sincei
it would he n mutter that would-I
benefit the entire province. . Even to-|
day the Liberals were sceptical that,
the ferry would -become an sccompl-\
shed fact. He had n. conversation'
with a Dart of them and he ‘had
succeeded pretty well in convincing
them that the ferry was not the im-I
probable thing they would deceive
themselves into believing it was.
Another matter touched upon by
the speaker was that,of branch rail-
ways in the Island. I-Ie said that,
communication from certain i>Bl`tB Of,
the province to others was a matter'
of supreme difficulty and he spoke|
verv forcibly in favor of the estnb-
lishment of branch railways. As soon
as the cnr ferry business was oil the
hands of the Dominlion Government,
be concluded, he intended Bekins the
members to sullllort him for all they
were worth in gettin! Pffelulef
Msthiesnn to approach the Govern-
ment at Ottawa in reference to tho
matter.
MR. J. H. BUNTAIN was the uelt
sneaker. I-Ie said that he_had listen-
ed with considerable interest and nt-
there had been need for that sort of
thing, that the beneficial assistance
given by the present Government was
greatly laporclciatsd by the people
themselves, From the increased vot-
es made bv ,the Government for* the
work, it wus evident that' the educa-
tion of the country was being organ-
izedin a yay that the people ap-
preclsted.
Referring to the question of agri-
culture.. he miysht sav that some yearn
ago when the late Qovernment were
sending a ~ few pupils to the Truro
college they thought they were doing
a wonderful thing for agriculture.
and so, perhaps, it was; but when
they could educate their own y_oung
men at home and get them addicted
to their own soil and their own cliim
ste, they felt that they could give
them e. better education in the line
of agriculture than they could -re-
ceive at 'l‘i'uro. Under this Govern-
ment there had been established long
and short courses in svriculture. and
courses in domestic science. and they
found that in every wav the agricul-
ture of the province had advancedin
a way that it had never progresssd
before. The proposal to establish an
ovster mud dredge had been received
with the greatest approval bv the
farmers of the country and he knew
that in his own district of the coun-
try the fn.rmers_were hoping that the
dsv would soon arrive when s simi-
lar dredge would be put to work in
their harbour and enable them -to
get the mlissefl mud which was so
beneficial to their soil.
