CANADA CAR WORKS. Mr, Lander asked for eontraets,.and. all papers eonnected withe the Canada Car. Co. and the Central Prison. He said when the Sandfield Macdonald Government introduced the scheme of a Central Prison, $150,000 was intend- ed to cover the expense, but when the new Government came into power, the Commissioner of Public Works, without asking consent of the Legislature, bar- gained away our freehold, bartering away our property to the Car Company. He understood that engines had been put in costing $10,000 each. Mr. Dickey was a lucky man. The Commissioner of Public Works regard - [ed him for leading the forlorn hope in South Grey by giving him the contracts for the .CentralPrison without tender, at his own price. What use did Dickey make of his power. at Mo,es's election 2 The workmen in the prison were inter- fered with. and threatened with dismiss- al if they did not vote for the Govern- ment candidate.

And what is most remarkable about it is, the full force of the impropriety of keeping her "rat -poison in the teapot did not seem to strike the old lady until about the time of the inquest.
