It ls generally agreed, be said, that the increase in our public debt during the last seven years has been due almost entirely to the highway im- provement work- That being the case we find that the liabilities on Dec 1st, 1919 were, according to the outside audit $1,225,275, on D80. 11st, 1023, $1,116,766 an increase .‘or the four years of 8491.401. Dur- .ng the three years ol Conserve- LlVB rule the increase ln the liabil- .tlcs of the province is $327,475. Again we (ind that the total mile- 1B8 completed by ‘the Liberals dur- .ng the season of 1922, was 181-26 miles, flit, an average cost of $2.358.- 00 per mile.

The present Gov- arnmenlt constructed upwards o! 4425 miles and increased the liabil- ities of the province by only 8327.- i75- ln discussing the maintenance of roads and the patrol system, Mr. Hunter, said. The Leader of‘ the Opposition must admit that the Government of which he was a sull- porter, failed, and it remained for this Government to adopt and put .nto operation. a system which, as I said before, ls proving quite sut- lsfactory. In referring to secondary roads. he thought that they were built too narrowly- The building of wider roads today is a necessity andlhe suggested that the Government uniform‘ the width of the secondary roads.

Otter (shown above), had com- mand of the Battleford column. and General Strange had charge of the third column. which went further west. ~ i tlon Mr. Saunders’ sincerity on the matter of Prohibition as well as in all other matters of policy. IMr. Shaw McMillan in his ad- dress at the outset congratulated the Honorable Leader of the Government on the position he oc- cupies in the estimation of the people of the lProvlnce. lt is re- grettable, he said, that Premier Stewart was not called upon to guide the deetlnes of the land at an earlier date.

Never during the regime of this Govern- ment has any disagreeable legisla- tion been placed upon the statute books. but he could not say the same of the late administration. Our administration, continued, Mr. McMillan, has ‘been one of pro- gress, of steady growth and stab- ility and if the same methods are continued during the next ten years I am confident that\we shall hold the population (but -we have, and attract back again sorrre of those who have been driven to oth- er lands to earn their livelihood- lIn speaking of the Department of Agriculture, he said that the es- tablishment of a Disease Free Area has already been felt by the.

Speaklug on Prohibition lie lie- clared that it would be better for the country if alcoholic ybevcrages were wiped out entirely. The pub- lic opinion is against the Prohib- ition act and so the control of ll- iiclt sale of liquor codld not be ac- compllshed- Prohibition basproverl a great failure as it has in the other Provinces oi! the Dominion. in concluding, he said, "Let us have a law that the people will respect, a law having behind it a strong body of publlc opinion; which can be irrforced." Let u.. wipe out this lying andhypocracy. We are wil- ling to trust the great mass of the People for after all 99 percent of the people of this province are honest. decent and four sided.
