The People e[ O erle Want a Government at That ('an and wilt De 17nnga•-13 the Timms of Site Vrm•lnce Regard, Aatlea for MUG. There la N0 Preaedeat non Macao the Precedent in Doing What I Needed. The Soo industries, M. Boss con- tinued, fell into difllculties, The stook speculators n the United States practically impoverished some of the men who were et the back of the industries. They had invested $28,000,000 in plants of various kinds, The turn had been reached where, if the Government did not assist the industries, the steel trust of the United States, that practical- ly had a mortgage in whole, would close those industries, "We were not going to bend the Knee to the Amer- icans," said he, "in allowing the in- terests of the Province of Ontario to be sacrificed by the millionaires of Wall street. We said to the Legisla- tive Assembly: 'We will endorse the bonds of this concern to the extent of 32,000,000 on everything they owned. They will pay the interest and redeem the bonds in two years.' " Proceeding, Mr..Ross said this action, taken in spite of the Opposition, had resulted in reviving the Soo industries; 4,000 men in round numbers were being employed, and $180,000 a month, or 31,500,- 000 a year, was being paid in wages. These men were being fed and sup- plied from older Ontario, were get- ting pork, bacon, wheat and flour and the produce of the dairy from Lennox among the other older coun- ties. The first six months'. interest on tho bonds guaranteed by tho Gov- ernment, 850,000, and on the mort- gage bonds, 3250,000, had been paid when the money recently tell due. Nearly all the creditors, 1,800 in all, had been paid a sum of 52,- 700,000.- About twenty-five or thir- ty thousand dollars yet remained to be paid, and he believed this would be paid before the beginning of the new year. He spoke of the large con- tracts given by the Canadian Paci- fic, the Intercolonial and the Tomis- kaming Railways as proof of the prosperity and bright future of the Soo works, and incidentally referred to the legislation providing that no one ehould be employed on works aided by the Government who came from countries where there is an ali- en law against Canadians. -Premier Ross at Barrie. Is It Time for a Change? Conservatives say it is time for a change in Ontario. the Liberals said so in 1896 in regard to Ottawa. The difference lies in the fact that the . Liberals in 1896 proved 'there was need for a change. They not only made chargee but they proved them. McGreevy was in jail-Langevin driven from public life -and abuses of public office for gain' were proved up to the hilt.- Finally the bolt of part of the Cabinet against Premier Sow- ell showed the country the truth of the Liberal charges that the Conser- vative Government at that time was unfit to govern and that It was "time for a change." Have any charges of contract breaking, of dishonest management of the public funds or resources been proven or even specifically made against the Ontario Government? Premier Ross said at Napanee:- I want this note to go to the country that every member of the Liberal Administration, that has been in Newer since 1871, is . able to stand )-#fore the most critical court in the land, before any committee of the House, As I have often thine in days gone by, I.cballengs our op- ponents to show that the Administra- tion has been corrupt, that we have traded in our position for political support, that we have bartered pub- lic contracts for election funds, of that we have done anything that will bring a feeling of shame to the most sensitive conscience. That is our challenge to the country to -day. .(Loud cheers.) • We say that after 84'years' service it is a' challenge you will admit that I can make. With' some pride. So that when, we said in 1896'lt was time for a dhange we made out a, case. There ie 110 case made out in the present instance. (Cheers,) Not a Dollar Mieplaood. "Wo assisted in the construction of 2,300 odd miles of railway, and to this moment our opponents are not able to say that we misplaced a dol- lar or aided in the construction of a single utile of useless railway, - (Ap- plause,) We set ourselves to supply the necessary public accommodation for , normal schools, for public in- stitutions, asylums, Central Prison, and so on. We had to erect Parlia- ment Buildings for the necessary ac- commodation of the Legislature, In thirty years we have spent 59,518,- 571 oh public buildings. Let any one of you sit down to see what that in- volves -the draWbrg of plane, the managing of contracts, and no *n- and you will see that some of the large enterprises which I have named, and will name in a moment, .required considerable effort on the part of the Government. There tbo buildings are. No architect will condemn them. They are perfectly *arranged, so far as sanitary accommodation and everything else is concerned. The money was paid out of the Public Treasury, and no man can place his hand on ono single 'dollar paid for blood money, for political purposes, Or misapplied in any way, so'far as the Government is concerned."
