A striking contrast between Premier Arsenault and Mr. Bell is in the subject matter of tlieiirspeeclies and their manner of handling public questions. Mr. Bell labors to score a petty point over some twopenny-halfl penny object of practically no consequence, leaving the greater issues and graver considerations scverclyalone, or treating them in an offensively partisan manner. Premier Arsenaiilt, on the other hand, rises to tiicliiglier plane and treats his audiences as tliiiikiiig men, capable of appreciating' and discussing questions of state innate- ly concerned with the welfare of the province. The principal problems of this province are concerned with our claims at Ottawa. Mr. Arsenault has shown clearly and ef’i`ectively what our claiinsare and how they have been presented; it remains now only to press them to a conclusion. The Liberals had twenty years in which to show what they could do and failed iniserably. The present Government has already obtained $i0U,()00 pci' annum additional subsidy and all our claims are still open, ready to be pressed at the first available opportiiii- ity now that the war has been \von. The llominion Gov- erninefit has granted us the (`ar l"erry, the wideiiiiig of the gauge, an irreducible minimum of four members oi' the House of Commons. it is in our own interests to show our appreciation of these benefits by returning a Gov- ernment to power in sympathy with the _Government at Ottawa. The Government at .Ottawa is far more likely to lend a listening ear to our further claims if we show our appreciation of those already conceded. Reports from all over the province indicate that the Government will be sustained by a large majority. It is iii the best and permanentinterests of the province»that the Arsen- ault Government shouldrgo back to power with an over- whelming majority iii order that they may go to Ottawa with the full and assured confidence of having the whole province behind them in further prosecuting our claims. 0 (lI’I’().\`|'l`l()N .\`l’l‘l.\Kl‘ll{ l"L.\'l`i.\` (`()N'l`l{.\l)l("l`l~ll). As a sample of the wild and unfounded charges made b the Oi iosition we may give an incident that occurred _ Y ll . at Bonshaw. Mr. J. J. McLeod in his address charged the Government with passing a law authorizing' medical doctors to charge $80 for an operation, and anotiier Act empowering lawyers to charge $56 for every deed they drew. Dr.tMcMillan, Charlottetown, \vho was present, challenged both these statements and called upon Dr. Murchison, who was in the audience, to refute the first, and Mr. G. S. Inman, who was on the platforin, to contra- dict the second. Both these gentlemen _admitted that Mr. McLeod was wrong in his assertions. Had it not been that l_)r.’McMillan followed Mr. McLeod, thc chances are that his allegations would have gone iinclialleiigcd and uncontradicted. Government supporters should be on their guard against such iinpriiicipled tactics and in every instance get Opposition speakers to substantiate their statements or prove, as lilr. McMillan lia-lipily did, to the sati`sf'aclion of the gatliering that the Opposition speakers are drawing largely on their iniagiiiation for cliaiges agaiiist the Goveriiineiit. 1-0-1- T 'l`l| IC (‘.\.\l l’.\ l(i N. One week from today the issues between the two political parties will be decided, the government for the next five years will be determined. A _ 4 The two parties seeking the suil`i'ages of the people are well known; each has its record and each has an- nounced its program. The campaign methods of both parties are known. On these they are to be judged. The Liberal party was in power for twenty years, and the record they made has not been forgotten even ,during the intervening prosperous years. Year after year they sank the country deeper and deeper into debt, until they had accumulated the enormous debt of $1,072,- 000. Because of their recurring deficits the public schools were starved, public works were neglected and general stagnation, agricultural, industrial and commercial pre- vailed. The party responsible for'this‘"condition is seek- ing re-election. Seven years ago the tide turned. The debt of the province has been reduced by over ten thousand dollars. The present Government has expended during its seven years $334,855.35 more on education than the Liberals spent in the last seven years of their administration; they paid $41,848 more yearly to the teachers than the Lib- crals did. Under this stimulus our public schools are re- covering from the stagnation into which they had fallen and the program mapped out for the future ensures a conuhuanonif'dusdnndnnmnts`Notwhhsunnnng“dm strenuous yearsof the war our public works have been kept up; agriculture has been developed and encourag- ed; the province is prosperous. ` How are the issues to be decided? Let the elector. Liberal or Conservative, look into the respective methods of campaigning. The Arsenault Governmenthas placed its audited accounts on the table. Every dollar of rev- enue has been accounted for and the accuracy of the ac- counting has been vouched for by independent auditors. The Opposition denies the accuracy of the accounts; they have deliberately issued garbled figures in an endeavor to persuade the electors that they have been deceived by the auditors. No. sane elector can be thus misled. _ is true, but _why did they have less revenue? Our claims at Ottawa were just as valid while the Liberals were in power as darmg the conservative regime. Because the Liberals did not know enough or care enough torealize on these claims the province sank deeper and deeper in debt and its public utilities were neglected. Would the Liberals do any bet- ter if again entrusted with the government? The Liberals are in the position of the onlooker watching the man who is doing things, and waiting for his job. To-find fault with and to criticize is easy; to say the thing' could be done better in another way is easy; even to abuse and belittle the man who is doing things is easy, although a poor qualification for the man who is looking for the job. .The test is, how did you do it when you were on the job before? i On this test the Liberals of this province will never get the job. To lie for a party is disho`norable as well as foolish; for the party leaders to »perniit the lie to go iincoiitra - flicted is equally dishonorable and equally foolish. Mr. J. J. McLeod’s riiliculously wild prevaricatioiis at the Bonshaw meeting were not contradicted or corrected by the Liberal leaders on the platform, in whose interests, they were presented. Had he by accident or by design. had the last word at the meeting his statements would doubtless have been accepted as true. Fortunately he was followed by a gentleman' who knew and the lie was nailed on the spot. It-was, however, a jol--t that Liberal- __ . isin in the l*`irst llistrict ol' Queens will not recover l`ro`m i'or some time to come. ' ' A .i_0.____._-i- 'l`lll'l l..\'l‘l‘I (i()\'l*Ill{.\'()l{. . It is with sincere regret we record today the death of Lieut. Governor, Augustine Colin Macdonald, which took place at his residence, Brighton, _yesterday after- noon. Governor Maciloiiald had been ill for some time, and thc end was not unexpected. He had reached the ripe old age of eighty-two years, and until his fatal ill- ness had enjoyed remarkably good health. The late Governor was the last of three brothers, each of whom rose to distinction in public life, anti lived to be an octo- geiiarian. In early life, when he was still in his thirties, Mr. Macdonald. entered public life and in pre'-Confeder- ation days was returned as a member of the House of Assembly where he took part in all the agitations and debates of those stirring times. After this province en-i tered Coniederation Mr. Macdonald was elected in 1873 to represent his native county of Kings in the House of Commons, and was returiied at five different elections. lt is almost fifty years since he first entered public life and from then until his death he enjoyed the highest per- sonal esteein of everyone in the province irrespective of politics. He had been a personal friend of many of the leaders ,of (`onfedera_tion and long enjoyed the friend- ship of Sir John A. l\/iacdonaldwith whom he was on terms of closest intimacy. Since the election of 1900 the late Governor had been out of the House of Commons. On June 7,1915, he was sworn in Lieutenant 'Governor and has held that office practically during the period of the war. Of a quiet, unassuming disposition, the late Governor did not pretend to leadership in social life, but he enjoyed the personal friendship and regard of a large circle scattered tliroiiglioiit the province but more par- ticiilarly in King’s (loiiiity, \vho will sadly miss him now he has gone hence. _ lliiring his regiine he was sorely alllicted by the death of his devoted wife and no less devoted iiiiiiiarri- ed daughter, whose loss he greatly inouriied. His nepliew, Judge Aeneas A. Macdonald. who has discharged the dutics of i’rivatc Secretary, has been his uncle’s con - stant companion for the past few years, relieving him oi' much of the details pertaining to the oiiice of Governor. The surviving members of the family, to whom the sym- pathy of the community will be extended are three sons: l"rank S., Montreal; Louis, Montague; Ernest, British Columbia; and three daughters: Mrs, R. J. Macdonald, St. Peter’s; Mrs. W. llagnall, New York, and Mrs. D. J. Stolte, Bi'attleboro, Vt. The funeral takes place on l"rida_v morning at 9.30 from Government House, 80 llrighton Road, to St. i)unstan’s Cathedral, where Politi- iical High Mass will be said. The body will remain in the Catliedral till 3 p.m., whence it will be conveyed to the afternoon train for Montague, where interment will be made on Saturday morning. - ._ 4, 'nieii old eiiou h t'o 'ie his ther ull ;E¢§~1Ei%¢l#4F¢§%&¢l<¢l&¢Iv¢£¢I<¢lb¢iF# ¥¢5i饢$ aily Selections for Guardian Readersii Furnished by W.
