E. 8. Weed, andthe enorrient his name was ineneioned, shouts of Soule Liberal papers, having more hurilihuod than the Globe, are tak- ing up the Laurier theory that the Grand Trunk Pacific: will cost $13,- 000,000 only. An astonished publie would them to explain. how the country is going to avoid spending some further sums. For instance Will we get the Quebec bridge for nothing? Will somebody elee pay the $75,000.• 000 which the construction of the .Winnipeg -to -Moncton line is to Ant Will we not have to pay any in- terest on this money while it is being spent aud before the Ge T. le. tease begins ? Will the couary never have to pay any dividends on the $85,000,000 ot common stock which the G. T. P. is to give the Grand Trunk? It will be noted that these ques- tions do not mehtion the oblim.ti ri which the nation assumes by guaran- teeing the G., P. bonds on the eas- tern section. This crbligation is very real. The netiou, xna,y have to Meet It. Any man. who backs -a 1140 real- izes this. But we are talalug now et money which must be actually paid out by the G-overnment for this read. under the most tavorable eiretnestane cea. Another poiut is the "sang froid" of the statement that the seven yea, re' interest on the eastern. and three- fourths of 'the ,cost of the IVIountain section of the/ road will amount to only $13,000,000. The cost ot the eastern -section 'is put -the Globe says' fairly -at $75,- 000,000. interest oe 'this sum during coustruction, which must be added to the coat, conies to $9,000;000 at the lowest estimate; This makes $84,- 000,000 for the total cost, Three per cent. on $84,000,000 for settee years is exactly $17,64(1,000 or more -than three milliens nigher than.

But possibly' a paltry trifle of nine Milliens Would hardly be noticed by the new' Liberals. • ' • The' fact is that the road will lay' obligations on the people of from $150,000,000 to $170,000;000, accord- ing- to the .Governmeeles sitecess .in the meney nierkee ; and Mr. Borden's policy of paying the remaining tenth of : the cost.' and taltiog the. road, is sound biteinees sense:.

The., pronouneemeht of tne Op- position. leader; in a Word, • brings menagement of our pub- lic railway into the domain of prac- tical -politics. It is a fine stroke, at once sagabioue and in' the public lee terest. His analysis of the -Grand Trunk Pacific bargain was an exeeptionally • skilful dissec tiert of an intricate bu- • siness proposition. Sir Wilfrid Lain- ier's rather aley figures were pulver- ized ; the comment is thoroughly jus - Maine. He also made short work of the preposterous argument that the _ Grand Trunk Pacific •enterprise will "cost" the country only fourteen or fif teen millions. The pleinfact is that the country must go on the • money markets and raise an enor- mous sem, perhaps seventy-five frill - lions, It also 'must pledge its credit to assist a private corporation to raise -e further enormous sum. For.a considerable portion of the sum to be raised by the Government it is to he hoped that interest will be re- ceived, so that it wilt he a direct instead of an indirect investment. But none the less the Ilnaeciai :opera- tion rout responsibility will be !heavy. Again, Mr, 13ordelt is forcible in his exposition of the unequal character of the agreement betwece the Gov- ernment and the railway corporation. That inequality cannot be too thor- oughly driven into the minds of the people of Canada and the Conserva- tive leader did well to abandon the lighter and momentarily effective me- thods of campaigning to drive home a serious- argument on this point. So, again, he was eiteetive in pointing out the position of Canadian peas. If we have a government -managed • railway the trade will flow automat- ically to Canadian sea -ports, and if We trust to the Grand Trunk all the agreements in the world will weight light against a Grand Trunk commit- ment of fifteen or twenty inilli,ohe at .1'ort1an4,e-NOW04 !' tgte WATERMAN'S IDEAL ; FOI.INTA.IN FEN, ' F•R' E E.: • 4. , • • • • , • Tote person who .1 writes the words • "Waternmet's Ideal .
