SIR JAMES P. WHITNEY, K.C.M.G, Prime Minister of Ontario the long era of Liberal rule in On- tario during which two Liberal Govern- ments pledged themselves to enact the largest measure of prohibition in their power, although upon receiving large majorities favoring prohibition deliberately disregarded either prom- ises or plebiscites. Mr. Rowell stood shoulder to shoulder with his party in those twin fiascos. The notorious administration of liquor laws by the Ross Government brought from him no word of condemnation, even though the laxity of law enforcement and the misuse of .the licensing power excited distrust throughout the ranks of Liberal electors, and caused in part the downfall of that administration. With that as his political past, Mr. Rowell resurrects in 1914 the old Liberal device, the promise of partial prohipition, trusting that memories may not recall the dismal associations' which Liberalism has contributed to the cause of temperance in Ontario. Against Mr. Rowell's third -time of- fer of the Liberal sudden -cure, Sir James Whitney and his Government' place the demonstrated facts of 'an' enormous advance towards real tem- perance since the term of their ad- ministration began. The Ross Government left the province with 2,814 liquor licenses in 1904. In ten years under the Whitney Government's plan of constantly strengthening the hands of the tem- perance forces,• no less than 1,214 licenses were cut off. In the past eight years the number of munici-• palities under local option has in- creased from 98 to 347, while the taxes placed on the liquor trade have been exactly doubled. Only by the strictest and non-partisan enforce- ment of the license Iaws, and by over two -score important amendments to the Act, has such striking progress shackles. at the Guelph Prison Farm possible. The ill -working �local option bylaws of the old government and the various Industrial Fatme now Province belonging to other races, was rendered practicable and clear, dotting the province the reclamation as English is the language of com the power of the municipal conncile 'of unfortunate men has attracted at- merce, s) is theirs the language of over local option votes was cancelled, tendon from all over the world, and + diplomacy and of literature and of and the expressed will of the people the public purse has been relieved by )I science, and it is only natural that was otherwise made supreme and 'making the institutions self -sustain- , they should desire to retain their a lioation ing. Mr. Hanna's reforms in the mother tongue, and so, consistent spend thirty millions of money upon good country roads is a recommen- dation of the Public Roads and High- ways Commission made at' the last session wh= h the Government is car- rying into effect as quickly as town- ship and county plana: can be com- pleted. The proposal includes the construction of 7,500 miles of town- ship roads, covering practically every highway in Ontario, The provincial subsidy for county road construction is to be increased to 40 per cent. w:th a like grant for maintenance, and the iprovince will make, a grant of 20 per cent, for township roads. Of the $$0,000,000 the province and the coun- ties will each pay $12,000,000 and cities $6,000,000. OLD 60V' T HOUSE PAID ENTIRE COST Handsome Building to House On- tario's Governor Places no ,i Burden on Taxpayers In securing for Ontario a now Gov- ernment House the Whitney Govern- 'tient overn- Y lent has used only the money derived from the sale of the old Government 'House. This money could, under the law as it existed, be used only for Government House purposes. Origin - sally the property belonged to the 'Dominion of Canada, but was trans- ferred to the province on the under- taking that the property, or the pro- ceeds of any sale of it, would be utilized for a Government House. Too Good For Ontario? Accordingly, a new site was ob- ' talliedanda building erected which will in every way be a credit to the province. The chief objection the Opposition has to it is that it is too • good for Ontario, but the better the building is the better le the bargain Ontario has secured. So far the pro- vince has spent $608;000 on the site, laying out the grounds and erecting the building, which is nearly com- pleted. There remains on hand a balance of about $200,000 to pay for the completion of the undertaking, so that the land given to the province for Government House purposes and sold so advantageously by the Whitney Government will about provide a new and modern Government House for the province. Uses of, Government House It should be remembered that the Government House is More than the official residence of the Lieutenant - Governor. It is a building in which *And the people of Ontario offer accommo- dation at the Capital for the Governor- General, his family id staff from time to time. Here also are enter- tained, sometimes at the request of the Imperial Government, the repre- sentatives of foreign nations, as well as distinguished men from different parts of the British Empire. The Government House is also used on behalf of the people of Ontario to Show respect to great public bodies Promoting philanthropic, religious and ndustrial enterprises who may visit the capital of the Province. Consider - he structure now approach- ing that t ng completion completion is intended to meet the requirements of the province for perhaps a long period, it is evident that those who think the Government; House is too good for Ontario fail to appreciate the future of this province and its importance as a part of the Empire. BECK AND HANNA WORKMEN AWAi1 COMPENSATION ACi sweat Measure Introduced by Whitney t Sovernment Comes into Effect f P on Return to Power On May 1st, 1914, there was placed figs the Statute Hooks. of Ontario the ,(Workmen's Compensation Act. It IN ;admitted on all hands that the Act is ',ilia most advanced piece of legislation ;that has yet been enacted in any pro- 'vince of the Dominion, or in any State et the Union, or any of the countries of the Old World. Some of the salient features 01 the Act are as fo'lows:— , (1), If a workman is injured he is entitled in every case to compensation, 'unless the Snjury was caused solely by his serious and wilful misconduct, and even where the injury was caused sole- ly by his serious and wilful miscon- duct, compensation must still be paid 11 disablethe inmjuryent. results in death or serious (2). There is no waiting period duet nwhich no ..ompensation is payable. It is true that the injury must last more than seven days, but if it does the compensation dates back to the date of the injury. In most states and countries a definite period, generally of at least two weeks, is fixed during which no compensation is payable. (3), All law suits are done away with. The workman simply sends his claim to the Board, The Board re- ceives a report from its local official, and awards the compensation without ever seeing the workman or his em- ployer, Nothing is deducted from the compensation to pay costs. (4). The compensation cannot be garnisheed or attached by a creditor: (5). The scale of compensation le generous - 1. Where the injury results in death. $75 for burial expenses. $20 monthly to widow and $5 monthly for each child under 16. $10 monthly to each child where there is no widow. If the widow marries again she gets a lump sum equal to the per cent. of his average total of the weekly payments for two years. 2. Where a -workman 1s per- manently disabled he re- ceives a weekly payment dur- ing his lifetime equal to 65 per cent. of his weekly earn-. Ings. Under most laws there is a limit to the total amount which a workman may recei-•e, but under the Ontario Act there is no limit fixed, because he receives 55 per cent. of his wages as long as he lives. If his wages run as high as $2,000, and he lives forty years after his injury, he will have received a total of $44,000. (6). Payment of compensation out of the Accident Fund is practically guaranteed to the workman ;iy the provinco provision being made for payment out of the Consolidated Re- venue Fund of Ontario wherever the Accident Fund runs short, and the Board. is also required to raise, by assessments on the employers, reserve funds sufficient to meet all future pay- ments for compensation. The province contributes annually $100,000 towards. the cost of administering the Act, and a further 526,000 to pay the salaries of the members of the Board. Magnificent Work For Hydro -Electric Cause and Prison Reform Awaits Electors' Endorsement The people of Ontario will be called ;upon on June 29th to express approval along with other matters, of the ad- inittedly great work accomplished by 1' -Ion. Adam Beck for Hydro -electric development and by Hon. W. J. Hanna for Prison Reform. That either man could be spared from the public's ser- vice may well seem inconceivable, and yet the summary dismissal of both from tasks which even Mr. Rowell ad - knits have been magnificently managed Is one of the grave consequences which Mr. Rowell asks the people to permit. Hon. Mr. Hanna has, by his per- sonal enthusiasm for prison reform, !upset the old regime of stone walls, striped clothes, armed guards and ROWELL COAXES HELP OF FRENCH Liberal Le .der's Promise to Re- tain Their "Mother Tongue" in English Schools r;• • That N.

In his manifesto to the people of the province while he deluges the Minister and Department of Education with abuse, he cunningly omits any mention of bi-lingualism.- But not so when he finds himself before an audience at New Liskeard on June 10th. There the topic of the rights of the French language in the public schools of the Province looms almost as big in Mr. Rowell's hands ae "Abolish t::3 Bar."

Adam Beck's whole public career is written in the success of the Hydro -Electric movement, which though now of mammoth proportions is only at the commencement of its Usefulness. In 1913 there were over 68,000 customers for light and over 8,500 for power, enjoying rates much below the old monopoly standard.

Great help will be derived by keeping individual records of each cow, because the old -established, com- placent "average" cow has no inten- tion whatever of assisting the average patron to get 3,000 pounds of milk from the average acre.

For many years the Temperance people of the Province, irrespective of party, have united in urging upon the various governments in power, the enactment of sante law that would make the public bar a thing of the past, and that should most effectually control the operations of the Liquor traffic, and remedy its evils. Thi policy is now presented to the electors and upon it we are to pronounce ou- verdict. Our county of Huron on the 29• h • •+ January last spoke with no Fqutvurat voice on the question. Ae a result we sbali have in a few weeks a !oarless enunty. The question now is, shall this immunity from the open bar which we enjoy, he extended to the whole Province. In our recent cam- paign several Local Option Municipali- ties joined in the C. T. A. campaign for the country's sake. Can we not with equal generosity unire with others in an effort to abolish the bar r hr'.ugh- t,ut Ontario? We would remind you that the .+ever -al candidates seeking your votes on the 29th of June, have bad ample opportunity to declare their attitude towards this policy, as definite quest Clone hearing on this subject have been submitted to each, Ie it too much to ask the temperance elector of Huron County to support only melt candidate as has pledged himself to nppt'rt rhe most advanced Temper- ann. legteleti•,n ? We have already shown by our votes that we are overwelmingly op. posed to the open bar. Shall we now dispose of the ofd jibe that temperance men, are never temperance voters at a Political Election. This may mean a breaking of old party ties, and it is no easy matter, even temporally to disassociate our.
