of inability and a record of dissatis-

They had witnessed them go on year

for the betterment of the country,
promises never fulfilled; and year af-

ance. The political atmosphere at
tllo inevitable ruill tllat confronted tile
Province if the Liberals were allowed
to continue in their make-belive Gov-
ernment, looked around ill terror alld
cried. as ill the illcidcllt referred to,
"Save us lest we perish " When thc
present party assumed tile reins of
Government it was to face the
frightful Incubus left tllelll by their
predecessors, in the shape ol' a debt
amounting to $1,072,000, represellting
the accumulation of twenty years’ lla-
bilities that should not have existed.
The Conservative Government, ilow-
ever, with a courage which the coun-
try alld even the Leader of the Opposi-
tion himself no doubt admired, shoui
dered the tremendous responsibility
and undertook to reduce_that huge
debt. They did not seek to sllirk it,
although the debt was due to none of
their iaxity; but they realized fully
the magnitude of the task that lay
like fashion to grapple with it. Dur-
ing ali the years of Liberal rule there
was never ally hope of a satisfactory
situation, and the country was grad-
ually approaching bankruptcy. When
a similar state of affairs existed in any
ordinary commercial enterprise, ,tile
speaker said, tile directors invariably
inquired, “What are we going to do? D
This thing cannot go on;" and the I5

things cannot remain as they are.”
Such was tile sentiment of the people
throughout the country in 1911; they
said with one accord they wanted a
new manager, a mall who could handle
the affairs of the Province ill a trust-
worthy manner, a mall who was able
to make ends meet, a man who would
save the country from bankruptcy.
And accordingly, immediately they
had it in their power to do so. they
appolllted their "new manager." Tile

been in power had witnessed a steady

debt almost $100,000. (Cheers.) Dur-
ing the twenty yearsin which the Lib-

wore iookillg at with concern year

the fact that there was a deficit; they
llevcr prilltcd the estimates and said
“Next year wc are going to have a do-
