W. J. MITCHELL,
Editor and Proprieter,
WHAT CONSERVATIVES
HAVE ACCOMPLISHED
V hat will be the attitude of Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, Sir Riehard Cart-
wright and other erstwhile Opponents
of the Canadian Pacific when the
Grand Trunk Pacific Railway ask Pars
Bement authority .to conaruct a see,
ond trans•continental line in purely
Canadien territory ? •
The buiLling of the Canadian Fa-
cile made the construction of a'second
line possible. It opened up the great-
est of Canada's resources. it has in-
volved during the past twelve months
the expenditere of millions of dollars
in keeping pace with the demandson
its service. . And it proposes to do
more. The' addition of a inagnificent
fleet of Atlantic stealizers to convey
to the markets of Europe the Produce
of the granary it developed marks
anuther advance in . its -progressive
policy and incidentally a, forward
move for Canada and Canadians. -
These are rssults of Cnnservative
faith in Canada's 'future. We are aele
ed to forget them. And why ? Mere-
ly- to avoid forcing discredit •ein the
piesent leaders of the Liberal party.,
When the scheme was broached for
the construction of the Canadian Pa-
cific, the Liberal party, led by: Hon.
Edward Blake,vainly sought to have
the lines pass through American . ter-
ritory.
Sir Wilfrid was one of the loudest
champions of United States interests.
He declared,' " If this contract s to
be judged in the light of modern Brit-
ish ideas and . principles, it carries
with it its death warrant and the only
duty that remains for. the Holm to
per orrn is • to 'reject it on the -first op- •
portimity. As a substitute for an ell -
Canadian line he advocated a railroad •
to Sault Ste. Marie, thence by the
Northern Pacific through foreign ter-•
ri tory to the Canadian- West. •.
Sir Richard Cartwright was of the
same 'opinion. He was certain that
" the confounded Pacific Railivay was -
likely to be the death .of half a dozen'.
ministers before it was through
with." This was his -message to the
Canadian Parliament and the Canad-
ian people.
But ychen it came to a question of .
building a feeder to a. United States
line, eir Richard, like- Sir Wilfrid,
was enthusiastic.
• During the Corning session Of. .par:,
Bement both ministers will have ;ens
oppoi tnnity to duplicate their oppied
tien of 18So. Another ", confoundect
pacific Railway" will again engage
the attention of all. Canadians. Will
the pressnt leaders' oppose it at they
did the Canadian Pacific ? Will .they
dare to stand before the people of this
country and advocate the expenditure
of money for the benefit of .foreign;
railroads ? Will they again: denounce
the West as a waste—a. land Of hills
seed lakes—the traffic of .which would
not pay for the grease of the car'.
wheels ? •
.gin the hand of Hon. A. 0.
Blair is been thrust into the
publmecoffers In order that bis friends
in $t. John may be rewarded. The
appcietment of E. W. IXolt, a hy-
draulic engineer, and George Robert-
son, a grocer,to investigate the tattle
guard question is little short of an.
,ontrage. Both appointees knew little
or nothing of cattle guards at the
time of their selection and their only
gratification seems to have been that
they materially assisted in Mr. Calair's
election of Ova Ilte Canadian peop-
le are now called upon to repay them
for their labor in furnishing a Minis-
ter of Railways, who has already cost
us some online's. It was eimpostec
wIlen an inveetigatio4 was decides,.
elan that the services. of cotnpetont
railway men would be secured. Should
the government be called upon at any
thne to appoint an inspector of groc-
eries, probably a locomotive driver
will get the appointment. His first
einalifica' ion, however, will be hie
usefulness during el!ectlems.
