It is a fact well known by both parties who it was that took the road off the hands of the con- tractors and the employes also, and estab- lished the wages at the low rate that they did far below the standing wages of the Intercolonial and al! the roads of the Do- minion. How, in the name of com- mon sense does that Grit organ try to fasten the blame on the Conservative Government to send their circulars to the employees of the Railroad, who know that there is not one word of truth in their statements, or do they think that, after robbing the em- ployes of their wages, they, are going to be fooled by them?
