THE GOVE,RNMENT'S WAY
OF DOING IT.
Hon. A. 0. Blair, in six years,
added $12,000,oi to the debt of the
co.ntry, as the result of his experi-
ments on the Intercolonial Railway.
This large amount has been handed
()ter to Hon. W. S. Fielding for atten-
tion. he Finance Minister's duty is
to pay an annual interest charge of
,..375,0oo on the amount and Mr. Blair
contributes not one cent to meet the
expenditure. It naturally conies out
of the pockets of the people. Then
Air. Blair comes along, after adding
set eral millions additionn.1 to Mr.
Meld Jig's aheady heavy burden, and
pats himself on the bacle because he
has an alleged surplus of $96,000. On
any other railroad the. 5375,000 inter-
est charges would he paid out of the
funds. Mr. Blair has Mr. Fielding do
it for him. Imtead of a 596,000 sur-
plus Mr. Blair is out $375,000, less
$96,000, or $279,000. And this has no
reference to the amounts improperly
charged to capital expenditure during
1502.
THE WAY LIBERALS PREFER.
It is a matter of cononon notoriety
that although British goods entering
Canada enjoy a reduction of
33 1-3 per cent., the average duty
collected is considerably in excess of
that levied on Lnited States imports
The British shipper suffers in several
ways. In the first place the Fielding
tariff was so adjusted as to raise tht
duties on hnglish goods and reduci
them on American goods. A seconi:
injustice to the shilper from the
Motherland is itt the excessi‘e vain
ation placed on his wares, and the
inadequate aseessment of a similar
article made in the United States.
For instance in 1902 we inif:)orted from
Great Britain 650,943 gallons of lin.
seed oil and limn the United States
41,9,16 gallons. The ITritish article
was appraised by tbe customs at 70c
per gal!on, while the American oil,
although superior in many respects,
was nly valued at 47c per gallon.
The goveinment's attenticn has been
repe..tedly called to the iniustice of this
unbusinesslike arrangement, but it is
still in vogue. Hon. Joseph Chamber-
lain might have been more disappoint-
ed with the Canadian preference if he
knew the. wridle story. Linseed oil is
one of eany articles similiarly treat -
JOS .,PH BRUNET DIISQUALIFIED.
Jo eph Brunet, the strenuous Liberal
repr4sentative in parliament tor St.
ante Division, Montreal, has been
ans.ated and disqualified for seven
years. lhe decision was reached by
At ting Chief Justice Tait and
Mr. Justice Lorangcr, after lis-
tening to what was, without
doubt, the most heinous story 01
elec:ion stealing ever brought to light
in Canada. lhe court found that a
sy.stematic campaign of ballot steal-
ing and personation had been planned
at the central committee rooms by the
Liberal party and that the arrange-
ments had been carried out on this
lines suggested ; that efforts were
made to defeat justice by spiriting a-
way witnesses to the United States
and that most irregular practices had
bten employed in appeals to the Su-
} rone Court of Canada with the horc
that the usefulne.,s of the lowei
(our. s might be destroyed.
The judgment cites that, "gangs
of telegraphers had been employed ;
cards had been, given them at the cen-
tral committee rooms by one Louis
li.vierge and they had voted four,
f vac:m/05c times in some cases, twen-
ty times in others.. It has been prov-
ed that Couicelles had voted five or
f;ix times and got paid for it by a
.n. on Break, signed by Arthur
Brunet. In the same way Lalonde
and Laporte had 1,een employed and
pr,id for passing twtnty votes each.
That the respondent Brunet knew of
the corrupt acts and countenanced
them."
lhe forceful aspect of the case is
that the whole responsibility of pro-
ing the chari.,es fell upon a private
aitizen,- Mr. J. 0. 11. Bergeron. The
government only intervened to par -
Con the chief of the criminals, Arthur
Brunet, who was stilt to prison for
his trimes. The anreals of the Su-
] reme Court of Canada, which were
hiracterized by that tnihnual as cc.n-
tenirt of court, were conducted by
Naeoleon A. Belcourt, the Liberal M.
P. ler Ottawa City. Frain start to
f rib It Liberals grett clad Liberals small
fig 'red. itt the plot. But justice has
teen meted out in a small ineasnre at
1 ast. It remains for the electors to
I ow Hon. (has. Fitzpatrick, Minis-
ter of Justice, and others who ennui-
-% ed at the criminals, that honest Can-
adians are not to be disgraced by such
olitical debauchery.
