Male, Con- servative member for Kingston, dur- lag the debate on toe resolution to guarantee the bonds of the Company to the extent of $46,000,000, and these charges were the occasion of con- siderable excitement in political ranks last week. Sir William Mackenele wan quoted by Mr. Nlckle as statlug that, owing to the opposition of Mr. Nlckle to the Canadian Northern deal, he would have to discriminate against the city of Kingston In relation to terminal and fuel pians. The Ktngston member further charged that Sir Wm. Meckenzte had allowed his emissaries to circulate among the employee of the Canadian Locomotive Works of Kingston the hint that because he (Mr. Nlckle) bad dared to oppose him, Sir William would therefore give no contracts to the Canadian Locomotive Works. "1 say," said Mr. Ntcklr, "that in a period of Iuduatrial stagnation, when that became known in Kingston, wo men held ttetr children to their breasts• dreading the pangs of hum ger and of frost; but 1 want to say this. A thousand times better that I • ho Id M• removed from the public life of Canada than that women should go cold and children suffer, and i also want to say this for these men, that no man raised his voice in protest but one." "1 want to know," shouted the mem- ber for Kingston, "what democracy is coming to, , when the monetary plutocrats of Canada can lord It over, andeaten the representatives of the tyle." The candidate that got the votes of the emeloyes of the loco- motive works, said Mr. Nlckle, went to Parliament, whether at Ottawa or Torcwto. Detailing the assistance given the railway magnate, Mr. NIckle condemned them for issuing mislead- ing statements to the ptiblic hereto- fore, and In the Information now given In support of their application for assistance. Th. Premiere Argument Mr. Borden pointed out that It was necessary to complete the C.N.R. transcontinental line and it had been, realized a couple of months ago that further assistance would be necessary. The reasons for this were: First, the financial stringency, which made It difficult to make fiotations on Issues already authorized, -'-Ithout heavy toes. The company- was also confronted by an increase of three millions in the ordinary current indebtedness. Eleven millions were outstanding for con- tractors' accounts. "It has been suggested." said the remier, "that the road should have een allowed to go Into the hands of he receivers so that the unguaranteed ecurities should be rut down. That not a proposal which commends (t- elt to me. The Government would ave to come to its aid in any case d the fact that the road was allowed go into liquidation would be ter- bly damaging to the credit of ('an - ea ' P b a 1s s h an to r1 s w s w an w ce "Every package guar- tb .:steed". su We • will send you the ea J l'orrie's Sample Package" or '.rsoftie ofour dehciolusfancy N Porn.u."o�4, t,keIIit1, for ler in coin or In view of the fact that the country as lending its credit to such a sub- tantial extent, Mr. Borden said, ' at held "to be reasonable that the people should participate directly in y profits which might accrue."

Why should Canada be asked to give this forty-five million gaurantee? asked Sir Wilfrid. The main object of the Government, Parllment was told, was to unite the various com- panies. Such was the declaration ct the resolution. such was the explan- ation of the Premier. "it this is all, It Is not enough: if it Is not all, we should know all." exclaimed the liberal leader "What Canada wants Is . tU.s,drutb.. veeAyubode truth, and nothing but the truth." Mr. R. H. Bennett of Calgary was another Conservative who stood strongly opposed to the Government resolution. He described the heads of the Caaadian Northern Railway as "exploiters" and "mendicants" who had left a tell of corruption from Halifax to Vancouver. "This career of two men—if, indeed, not three`—challenges Its equal or parallel in the history of the world," seta the Calgary member.
