In a my convincing manner he dealt with the failure of the Saunders- Leg Government to implement its pweieciirin promises. I-lc criticised we extravagant road policy of the Liberals, ‘Hid also the remarks made by Myggampbcll at a P1111101“ meeting, to the effect that famlers wouig not have to pay extra taxes. Mr‘ MQDQXIBJd showed" thflt iZhC deb; incurred by the Saunders-Lea gdministration would have to be pail-i by the taxpayers of the Prov- ince. Their extravagant highway policy, and their absolute failure to enforce the Prohibition Act were also ably dealt with. Mr. McDonald referred to the return of statute la- bour, and also to the failure of the Libel-ills to do anything to assist gdilcililbll in the Provnice. ' Mr. J. A. Campbell laboured hard u, uphold the record of the Gov- ernment, but failed to create any enthusiasm. l-le made a strong plea for support of Premier Lee. and asked (or support for his colleague and himself on the record of for- mer Liberal Governments. speaking in his home town Mr. ‘J. D. McLeod received a great ova.- mn. He dealt at considerable lgpgth with the ‘extravagance of the Lea administration and with the McIntyre road policy. Dr, Cyrus Macmillan gave an or- ation on matters which had very little to do with the election. He made n) reference to the Educa- wirig optimism of the tion Commission of which he was chairman, and towhich reference was made by preceding , ' . but drifted off into Federal politics. Ha was considerably heckled by such inquiries as “How about the fish?" Mr. J. ll‘. Arnett dealt in a very lucid manner with provincial issues by showing year by year the large increase in debt under the Liberal Government. l-le referred to $8,000 paid by the Government in connec- tion with the Andrew Mitchell Scandal, and t0 the $3,000 paid to the Education Commission. Turning to Dr- Macmillan he said‘. “This gentleman was chairman of the Commission, and the report has never been heard of since. Conse- quently you can see why Dr. Mac- millan is down here in support of the candidates of the Lea Govern- ment." He also referred to the fail- ure of the Saunders-Lea Govern- ment fo enforce the Prohibition not. A detective had been hired by the Saunders Government to round up the bootleggers, but the detect- ive had got drunk and Mr. Saund- ers had had to pay him $1,400 to go back to Montreal. All this money had been thrown alway by the Government which is now campaigning on the economic- al way in which it had conducted affairs. Mr. Arnett in taking up the dif- ferent planks of the Liberal plat- forln of 1927 showed conclusively that the Government had failed to keep its pledges. At the close of the meeting Mr. Martin McKinnon denied the re- port which appeared in the Patriot in which he was reported to have said at the Grand View meeting that there were fifty-one starving in Montague, while everyone in the hall knew the statement to be in- correct. Dr- Macmillan on being asked by Mr. McKinnon to acknowledge that the statement had not been made replied that he did not remember. Lea Blames Continued from page 1 times of depression, would do the sort oi things Mr. Iea is doing. "Just think of his road building at $27,000 a mile, while the by-roads are left in such miserable condition. (Applause). We should say nothing of thc plight of the Premier him- self, ivhcll he was stuck on one of his boasted roads and there he stay- ed with his good car deep ln .he mud, until some sympathetic Con- servatives were pleased to find him thus, and to assist him in getting extricated therefrom. (Laughter). ‘These wonderful Liberals," said Mr. Morrison, "do not know what to do or say, in fact they do not know what they have said about Old Age Pensions. Some have one idea, some another, and most of them do not know what to think about Old Age Pensions. Nevertheless, they gave an old age pension of $1,000 a year to John Anderson f0 seal his moilth. so that the country may not learn more of the Government's doings. a These are the people who ask you to Judge them on their re- cord. As increasers of debt and moc-tgagers of Prince Edward Is- land's farms and homes, they hold a record, but 'tls an unenviable one, 4150.000 in less than roul- years, ' and they must and do admit it! (Applause). MR. WRIG llT PEEVEI) Mr. Wright said he did not like to hear Mr. Morrison say the things he dill about them and their govern- ment. llo admitted that the Gov- ernment had more revenue during ills last four years than that en- Ioycd by the Stewart Government, but this was because "we were a better Govemment.' He said it‘ was "a progressive Gov- ernment." He read from clippings lclrbled questions of Dr. McMillan lbout Premier Lea. LASHES LENS INCONSISTENCY Ml". Heath Strong, amid enthus- iastic applause, scored the Premier "Ty effectively for his slurring rc- lcrcncc to the speaker at Borden "I the previous evening, when he will: "Who ll this Heath Strong? 9111i’ a lawyer from Sllmmcrslde." "Well," replied Mr. Strong, "It ll! lecomcs the Premier, of all men to m‘ "I! reflection on my profes- llon. Only last October In espous- "l "iv "M: of Mi.

"Consist- ency thou art a jewel", but one not of much value in Mr. Lee's make- up!" (Applause). ‘ Mr. Strong ridiculed the no-policy canvass of Mr. Lea, criticizing their overthrow of Rev. Mr. McLeod and Mr. Bentley, who were real tem- perance men, gave statistics to show the provinces increase in crime and drunkenness, referred to their jug- gling with Statute Labor and clos- ed an effective speech amid cheers of approval. LEA BLAMES SAUNDERS Mr. Lea was plainly much“ an- noyed with the pcinters he receiv- ed from both Conservative candid- ates. He said John Anderson was a good auditor, maintained that he had written letters to the super- visors, said the road surface, al- though rough in places, was better than it used to be and insisted that he was not stuck on that bad piece of road for as long a time as the Conservative candidate claimed. He said he was stuck only a half an hour. He admitted increasing the debt $758,000, and the yearly inter- est charges over $35,000. He re- pudiated part of his platform of 1927, saying that he did not have anything to say about cranberries, that it was "a lawyer, (presumably Mr. Saunders), whom you must blame fo: that." He said he thought his Government would be returned as the Eastern part of King's County is going strong for the Lib- erals this time. ‘ MR. ‘STRONG 1N REBUTTAL' In a. few minutes of rebuttal, Mr. Strong 531d he was surprised to hear Mr. Lea repudiate a pill-t of his 1921 platform and attempt to lay the blame for its inclusion on a. person' now out of the game. The meeting was a good one and showed Messrs. Lea and Wright that they are this time opposed by men who will give them their duos‘ in plain straightforward talk. I The meeting was Conservative in numbers, many telling points of‘ ‘ in the Liberal Administra- tion, having been aired by Mcssrl. Morl-fson and Strong. A vote of thanks was tendered. the chairman, Mr. Gordon Dawson. and the meeting closed with God save the King. Lea And Wright Continued from page 1 A VOICE; "Yes, no five cent piece there!"

MacMILLAIWS ADDRESS In introducing Dr. Macmillan to the audience Mr. James March- bank, the capable chairman, said the doctor was well known to the people of this section and was one time the teacher at ‘Travellers Rest. Dr. MacMillan said that all Governments preceding the Lea Government had brought the lia- bilities up to two millions and in their 4 years Mr. Lola's Govern- ment had added over a million dol- lars or one half as much as all other governments. And this had been done despite the fact that the Lea. Government had had one and one-half millions increased revenue. Dr. MacMlllan said he was surpris- ed to hear that Premier Lea was stuck in the Arneit Road the other night as he thought it was a ter- rible thing when he was stuck once 1n Freetown four years» ago. The Premier had better be careful, said Dr. MacMilla-n that he does not get stuck again on the 6th of August. (Loud applause.) The Doctor scored heavily when he spoke of statute labor, the fail- ure to get a satisfactory subsidy settlement and also where he prov- ed convincingly that the Conserv- atives had built more and bigger bridges than the Liberals. Premier Lea had made a lot of the fact that the Liberals had build one ste.-l bridge at Vernon River but the real steel bridge building policy wastin- itiated by the late I-lon. James A. McNeill when he was commissioner of Public Works. (Applause) Doctor MacMillan said he want- ed to deal with a statement he made about the Premier at the Capitol theatre in Charlottetown which Mr. Lea had ‘insinuated he would not make on any other platform. v "I want to tell the Premier," said the‘ Doctor, "that any statement I made in Charlolfctown I will make. anywhere else and I intend to re- PBM l! here tonight that he pays more attention to animals than he docs to the health of human beings. Repeatedly I have gone to the Pre- mier on delegations for the Red Cross, Children's Aid Society and I riulllpil Continued from page 1 shores adjacent. If ever there was free rum in the Province it was at _ the present time, Mr. McMillan be- lievcd. The small bcotlegger was prosec- uted, but the big fellowwas allowed to go, under the present administra- tlon. At Eldon Hall, Mr. Larabee and Mr. Bruce had taken their exit from the platform, and when the Pre- mier concluded his address. he pointed at the speaker and Mr. Mc- Lean and said "Vote for these men," Mr. McMillan related. Mr. McMil- lan concluded with an eloquent ap- peal for support on the day of elec- tion. _ ‘ Mr. Callum Bruce reminded- his audience that when he last appear- ed before them it was in a three- cornered fight. There had been a. prohibitionlst in the field at that time in the person of Mr. W. E. Bentley, as well as the party can- didates. " l-le reviewed what Hon. W. M. Lea had done for agriculture in the Province. He stated that Falcon- wood Farm was in excellent condi- tion at the present time. Mr. Bruce hoped that the people would give Premier Lea a chance to sec what he could do. 1f at the and of four years he has not done what you want turn him out, M1. Bruce said. Voice: “If another million goes on the debt, what then?" Mr. Bruce claimed that the Stew- art Government had been afraid to appeal to the people on its record. Mr. Bruce reviewed the Conserva- tive platform, claiming that it was borrowed from the Liberals. Mr. George McLean stated that while travelling through the coun- try he and Mr. McMillan had re- ceived great encouragement. Mr. McLean was surprised that Hon. J. P- McIntyre had claimed credit for the Government for the building of the new sanatorium. The Women's Institute, one of the finest organ- izations in the Province, had erected the magnificent new building, Mr, McLean contended. The. Liberals Slwllld be ashamed of their record as regards sanatoriums, when. one remembered the Dalton Sanatoriunl scandal. The Bell Government had not accepted $100,000 for the build- ing. A few weeks ago the Government had increased the tax on gasoline behind the baclQ of the people and last week it had placed a tax on motor trucks. The tendency of thc Lea Government was to increase taxation, stated Mr. McLean in view of these recent increases. The cotton mill at St. John,~to which Mr. Larabee had made refer. ence had been closed for three 1041's. and not for one year, he pointed out. With regard to the road machin- other organizations and whether it was when he was Provincial Treas- urer and Chief Lieutenant in the Bell Government" or the present Government we were coldly turned down. [This Lea Government has gone so far rim". they will no long- er pny the expenses of Juvenile children in reformatories or make any effort to try to save the souls oi‘ these little ones and so I th’nk, I have very good reason when I say, again that Premier Ilea puts cat-j: tle, horses, sheep and swine before the children of’ this Province. I have, no quarrrl with Premier Lea for-his; work with live siock but I do say that he should not put it ahead of‘ the health of our children. (Ap-i plause.) Prohibition elmted this government and now Premier Lea rcpudlafus his platform. They are‘; try‘ng to throw it on a Commission‘ Premier Lea says it is an independ- ent Commission but I challenge him to name one Conservative on the Commission. It is a Liberal Com- mission, a partisan commission. “In the last four years there were more arrests for drunkenness ‘in Charlottetown than in the days of free rum. If ,_we can't give you a. better enforcement oi’ the Act than Premier Lea and Mr. Wright, will "walk out" sold Dr. MacMillan. Dr. MaoMillans attack was _so hot for Premier Lea that he asked leave to reply and the Premier thundered on the platform with such ferocity that his remarks were almost incoherent. After hearing such remarks as "Dr. MacMillan was too" cock-sure of himself and that he would be "beaten in Char- lottetown," etc. the audience left the hall before he was over his tan- trum with such cries as "Good bye. Mr. Lea," etc. It was a. sad, sad night for Mr. Lea, and a still sadder one for Mr. Wright after his humiliating ap- ology. " Three Rivers. st. Maurice in the BARB 0F THANKS The family of the late Rev. ‘cry, Mr. McLean showed conclus- ‘ively that the repairs almost equal- iled the original cost. Mr. McLean ‘dealt with the failure of thc Gov- 1‘ crnmnet in prohibition enforcement. , The Ticket of Leave Act is an after- i math of the attempt to enforce the i Prohibition Law. I Hon. B. W. LePage delivered the l eulogy to the Premier, which he had given the audience at meetings in Second Queens. As usual, he com- pared the records of the Stewart ‘and Saunders-Lea. ndlnillistratiolls. The Lea Government had increased the revenue by $794,000, l~.fi". LePage boasted. Voice: "Yell spent almost $2,000,- 000." ' “There will be no increase in taxes to the fnrmers—' here Ml". Le- Page corrected himself, “on farm lands of this coilutry." The Saunders-Lea Government had done all ilosslblc to enforce the Prohibition Act, Ml‘. LcPnge claim- cd. lf there had been liquor smug- gled into the Province (luring the last your n. was tllc fault of the Bennett Governlncllt, he stated. Voice: “Whose fault was it before that?" Mr. LePage: "We'll take thc blamg for it before that time." Before Mr. Larabee begun ills re. buttal a lady in the audience ask- ed "who owned and operated the St. John cotton mill?" Mr. Larabee was unable to answer the question. a gentleman in the audience volunteered the lniorma. tlon that thc mill had been owned b)’ M'- Plrlifl. 8nd that the business had been in straightened circum. stances for thirty years. .___________ (Canadian Press) THREE RIVERS, Que, July 26, —With the announcement by Dr. J. O. Beiisle that he would be a cam -didaie in the labor interests, three names were in the field today to contest the federal constituency of l bye election of August l0. Recent. conventions chose lion. Wilfrid Garleliy. K. C., as Liberal nominee THE CHARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN iCidOpt. Light Wines, Prohibition or ers Enthusiastic And Chaisson. The wonderful reception acorded to I-lon. J. D. Stewart, leader of the Conservative Party, and tile attent- ive hearing he received (mm "l" crowded audience In Alberton I-Iall at the joint political meeting on Friday last was a. strong indica- tion of the trend of the people to- wards the Conservative party. Albertcn, for years a. stronghold of the Liberals, is favouring the Conservative-party at this election. All the candidates were well receiv- ed. but the prolonged applause giv- en to Mr. Wilfred Tanton and his colleague, Mr. J. J. Chaisson, was proof of the way things are going- Mr. Stewart in supporting the Conservative candidates, impressed the audience with the masterly manner in which he placed the cause of his party before the elect- orate and laid hare thc misstate- ments of the present administra- tion. a Mr. Christopher Meihcrall acted very impartially as chairman. The silcakers in order named were, Mr. Thane A. Campbell, (LibJ, Mr. Wil- fred Tanton, (Con.), Mr. Aeneas Gallant, (Lib), Mr. R. H. Gordon. (Lib). Mr. J. J. chaisson, (Con). and Hon. J. D. Stewart. Mr- Thane Campbell. Attorney General, and Liberal candidate for 1st Prince, was the first speaker and took ilp a good deal of time was the most important thing be- fore the electorate today. He also gave a list cf things that the Lea Government had accomplished dur- ing their terrn of office. It was “disgracefuP he contended, for The Guardian to show pictures of the cracks in the McIntyre Highway on the front page of their paper at the very beginning. Anyway it “'35 not very much more than a few hours after the cracks were repair- cd that you could drive over the road. - Mr. Campbell went on to say that the liabilities incurred were not a debt, but an asset, just the same as when a. man invests his money building a. barn. At this point, Mr. Tanton remarked, that farmers don't built barns every year. (Laughter). Mr. Campbell contended that the Government has done everything in its power to enforce the Prohibition Act. A Commission was appointed and they have been given a free. hand. with no political interferencei but have given them every possiblof assistance. ‘ 3 Mr. Campbell went on to say: that the law was difficult to cn- force. New difficulties were arising, every day. as soon as we cope with: one, another arises- Ml". Campbell alluded to Conservative platform as being full of platitudes. They say we have noi platform, we dcn‘t believe in put- ting down 18 clauses or planks and’ calling it a platform. hlrfcanipbell ended up by culog» izing thc gocd work of the Provin- cial Police- MR. WILFRED TANTON Ml". Tnnton, Conservative candid- ate. followed Ml‘, Campbell and in a coilvincing speech, ivhicli was ilunctuatcd with applause, he ans- wered the many arguments of his opponent on the political situation. Ill his opening remarks thc speak- er said that Mr. Campbell had made a great effort to bolster up a very bad case. He has done ills best, and on account of his tender years we will excilso him for the, many political mistakes he has made. In replying to his remarks on Prohibition Mr. Tilnion pointed out that never lrl the history of Alber- ton since the clays of free rum has. there been so much liquor landed as in the last four years. The sand hills are full of it. (Applause). Mr. Campbell i-necred at our Govern- ment Controi measure. but we came out and asked you what you want.- cd. The Liberals in the interests of their party, sent out fcclcrs to find out which platform was best to Free Rum. in the interests of the Liberal party.

Then they passed a lct of ,3 amendments but nollc of thclu has helped much, If the Conservatives are returned to power they hope to do better than this aggregation, which has not enforced the law. (Applause). Mr. Tanton then exposed thc boasted good roads of the Liberals and the assets which they claim they have, on account of (he debt they have incurred to build these good roads- Whcn they came lllto power they found the treasury overflowing with $165,000 extra from the railway tax and grant from the Federal Government which the Stewart Government had procured. So they thought, we have lots to squander. with $140,000 nlore from) gasoline tax, in all they had a! million and a half more revenue. Yet they ran into, debt and in creased the liabilities by one quar- ter of a million dollars. Mr. Campbell had said, the pic- tures in The Guardian of the Mc- Intyre Highway is political ill-opa- ganda, but the camera. cannot lie. Now they say “Well ive have it ‘puttied’ up now." Hear, hear. "They say we have not taxed you for this highway. No, but you will be taxed to pay thc debt. Increased interest means increased debt. This grandiose scheme oi’ highways ls very like the manner of’ drunken sailors in spending their earnings without thought for tomorrow." The Conservative party built good roads in and about Albertcli but since the Liberals came into power they have been let go, until lately, now we sec nothing else. (Prolonged applause). The people have not been given enough, road work to pay their tax- es, (hear. heal‘). The big men have been making $40 to $50 a day in hauling gravel but the rank and file had to dig down and pay their harcl earned cash fol" their taxes. (Hear, hear).

Stcunrt was grocfocl he came forward to address the BIJDIGUSC gradually died away the audience, both Liberal and ' Coll- servative, settled down and listen- cii with the closest attention to the loader of the Conservative party as he dealt with the important is- sues before the electorate. Not once was the speaker interrupted as ill his quiet yet convincing lllallner he answered the molly criticisms lcvcl- cd. by thcLibi-ral candidates at his Government. There was a good deal of tall: 011 rolllarkcil. that is as it should be, if. ls vi-ri‘ important to lluve good roads, but good things can be ovclwcsiinlrlicci if you pilrsue them too fill". The Lib- eral‘ roads have cost entirely too much for ‘the value received. The Bell and Stewart Governments (lidi good work on the roads, filling ilili the llolcs, making culverts. bridges, lll fact doing thc foundation work. This cannot be colllpnrcil ivilll lilaclliilillg roads. Mr. Stewart criticized the method of the Govcrlillicnt in nlucllillillg roads at the present time instead of keeping them smooth by drag- ging them. They are far from smooth at the ilrcsenttinle. ‘ The subsidy cluillls were nbly dealt with by the speaker, who slloivccl convincingly that thc Saunilclas-Lczl Government, after going to great expense had absol- utely failed to implclnclit that part of their 1027 illntforln. Yet Ml‘. Lea says that platform has been "more than inlplcmcnted." On the other hand the Conserv- ative party met iviili a measure of success. We did get all interim pay- ment of 5125.000 a year. It was thc duty of the Lon Government to fol- low this up. They went to Ottawa and made a lot of fine speeches but came back with nothing. Taking thc Agricultural plank of Liberals, 1927» One would expect Mr. Lea to carry out his platform in regard to agriculture, but no, al- though tlicy have inserted in it that they would develop the cranberry industry assocn as they got into office they (ilSllllSSCd the man from Nova Scotiil that we had instruct- ing the farmers and did ilothirlg nlcrc about it.
