The hill was no tanner introduced
than it became evident that the
government was playing • double
game. In several newspapers the
charge Bras openly made that the bill
was to be detested by Oonserv*tiv
senators when it reached the upper
chamber. In the house of commons,
Liberal speakers auggeste.l that this
was the plan. Immediately there
cense loud denials from the goer: n•
went. Hut the charges were true, and
events bate proved their truth.
When the bill reached the senate, it
was supported by the votes of the .p.
position leader, lienator Hn..tock• and
thirteen other Liberal senator, against

Only eleven Cooserv*tive sent/dont
voted for the hill. On the other hand,
eleven Conservative senators, led by
Sir Mackenzie Hewell, the former Con-
servative pretoier, voted to kill tbe
bill. If those Conservative senators
had voted with Senator Hostuc{t, the
hill would have Mr^0rue law -but that
was net whet the government wanted.

Innocent enough but It Is full of signifi-
cance whets the government's mune is
understood. if the Libetsl votes were
taken first and were sufficient amine-

desire would have been aceouiplished.
Then Conaervatiee moisture ruald

ing that their friends in the commons
could piste the blame for the (Irfr t( of
the measure -upon the Liberals and
thus make party capital in Ontario for
the nett el, ctions. 1f there were not
quite enough Liberal senators oppos-
ing the measure to kill it. then one or
two bolters on the Tory side conld
make up the deficiency, thus serving
the government's putpwr without
hurting the party greatly.
But Senator Lougbe•ed's move was
too traiapsrent. The l.iher*ls insisted
that the vote be taken in the regular
way. Afraid to take any chance lest
the bill slip through, enougt. Conserva-
tive senators to ensure the measure's
defeat hastened to declare against it.
Their votes did the trick. The bill
was killed. Hy .upporting the bill,

they snared its defeat. Fourteen
Liberals. beaded by Senator Bostock,
the Liberal leader, supported the bill.

How Good Roads
will benefit You
Z.
THEY BENEFIT THE FARMER, because
they increase the value of his farm; en-
able him to raise more profitable crops; his
cost of hauling will be low; he can reach mar-
kets when prices are best; his children can
get to school every day in the year, and be will have more
social life and better conditions generally.
THEY BENEFIT THE CONSUMER, because they re-
duce the cost of living in proportion to what the farmer
saves, and by bringing new indulttnes to the community,
enable a larger proportionate amount to be paid out in
wages, and with increased population, more amusements
and better stores.
Public roads are commertul feeders of the city, and every
improvement of these roads means a greater prosperity
through increased agricultural production and greater stim-
ulous to all industries.
. Economical Good Roads
Concrete roads are best from the start and cheapest in the
end. They are free from ruts, mud sad dust They give
good footing to hones and easier traction to every class of
vehicle, but most important is the fact that they require
practically no expenditure for upkeep.
Complete information of concrete road construction is
yarn for the asking, without cost or obligation.
