The cost of education is $9,- 967,000. Surely the least we can do is to afford facilities for the men- «tal and physical dvelopment of our youth. It costs considerable to maintain our high standard of law -and order. The government was ■trying 'to protect the public against unscrupulous stock salesmen. Hydro had been -extended to the rual sec­ tions. Protection has been given to women and children in factories and a minimum wage established. On­ tario enjoys facilities that are not enjoyed by any other state or nation. The hog markets have been develop­ed. Assistance has been given in the development of community centres. Considerabde money is be­ ing spent on the highways so as to give employment 'to -the needy. To carry on all these activities the gov­ ernment must spend money. The speaker stated that Mr. Hep­ burn is reported to have said that he would abo-.ish the department ot agriculture. The old stalwarts of Liberalism have made a fight for provincial rights. Will the farmers " j of Ontario- have a better chance of. getting what they want through Ot­ tawa in competition with the other provinces than they have at Toron­ to? Mr. Hepburn has criticised the surplus hydro power but it had been shown that the actual surplus was not far in excess of the demand. The record of hydro in ten years shows an increased revenue of 80 per cent, and increase in the service to agri.u culture 120 per cent: and an increas­ ed financial reserve of 43 0 per cent.

Had it not been for relief the Henry government would have spent about one quarter of what had been spent ten years be­ fore. Mr, Hepburn criticises the Henry government but when two hundred million dollars had sifted through the hands of the Dominion government Mr. Heyburn had little weight with liis own party at Ottawa and if he could not do it at Ottawa how could he do it in Toronto? Tile provincial government had made considerable saving by retiring the debt at New York when the exchange was at par. The government had floated a loan at the lowest rate in the history of the province. The speaker commended Mr. Henry as a man who had brought this province through troublesome times and a man whom we could trust. Mr. Henry was not as eloquent or fluent a -talker as Mr. Hepburn but was a man of sound Judgment. The speaker said that he had spent a lol of time and money -advocating temperance. Whether -or not the Conservative party had given us the leadership we want, we know where they stand. The Henry government is anxious to maintain sobriety and temperance. Mr. Hepburn h.as been trying to find an issue on which tc split the people of Ontario. He has tried many but none of them have clicked and at last has dragged on the old banner “it is time for a change.” Mr. Henry has kept step with the times and the. demands and has made change after change. Mr. Hepburn in his eagerness for power has intimated his willingness to fall in behind Mr. Woodsworth by his re­ cent utterance. “I will swing well -to the left.” The electors will do well ■to stand behind Mr. Geo. S. Henry and his supporter Mr. Elliott. J. C. McRuer, K.C., Toronto Mr. J. C. McRuer K.C. spoke in the interests of Mr. Ballantyne. He stated there was evidence of a tre­ mendous amount .of money being spent in this election to return Mr. Henry. If Mr. Henry was so sure of his election why did he undertake to spend thousands of dollars on highways on the eve of an election. It had been charged that Mr. Hep­ burn would do away with the de­ partment. of agriculture. Was the statement true when Mr. Hepburn had pledged to make Mr. Duncan Marshall minister of agriculture if elected? What Mr. Hepburn said was that some departments would be curtailed and some abandoned. Is there any good reason why thous- sands of dollars should be spent on a motion picture bureau or the de­partment of colonization to biting people to this province when we can’t feed the people that are here. The speaker was indebted to Mr. McAl­ lister for bringing up the bond is­ sue. Why was it necessary for Mr. Henry to get advice from the. men who were to buy the bonds and pay them handsomely for that advice The bonds were sold at $96.00 and were supposed to be sold to the people of Ontario but was there one in the audience who had been able to secure one of these bonds. They had been bought up by bond dealers and insurance companies and were now bidding around $108 a gain of twelve points in three months. This is not the whole story. Mr Hepburn says he will not allow anyone to sit on a. company directorate and at the same time occupy a cabinet seat. When one sits, on a directorate he must buy as cheaply as possible and as a cabinet minister it is liis duty t<o sell as high as possible. The trouble is, Mr Hepburn is just a lit­ tle ahead of the rest and is giving the leadership that has not been had for thirty years. It can be shown where the cost of administration can be cut down fifty per cent with* out cutting the mother’s allowance or the old age pensions one cent. It was the Liberal’s that started Old Age Pensions and the Drury govern­ ment the Mother’s Allowance. The speaker said that banks and loan companies had no money to loan to fanners because they were making big profits from government bonds and in the past two loans floated by the government the- gain to bondholders was $7,9 5 0,0 00; The Henry government had been elected for four years. They had taken five, and no one knows what they will take .next time if elected. The Con­ servative party -says that your leadt­ er is your policy but Mr. Hepburn says that a .representative should represent 'his constituency. On the question of hydro Mr. Hepburn says that it belongs to the people. It was not right to buy Ontario Power Service Company bonds at $90 when they were listed as low as $37. It took three weeks in the legislature before Mt. Henry admitted that he had made a profit on these boners. Such things will ruin ihydro. That is why we attack it on the hustings. In reference to the liquor toll-gate was- it right that distillery compan­ ies should be paying commissions for selling liquor t-o the province. Any tax should be put on by the province •and not by party heelers. He- spoke of the government spending $187,- 000 for a school that would house only 40 delinquent girls. The salary list alone of this school is $17,0nu a year. You know Mr. Ballantyne’s record in the county. Had there been a few more Ballantyne’s in the Con­ servative party things might not have been as they are. He appealed to the electors to support Mr. Ball­ antyne at the polls. At the close of Mr. Ruer’s address Mr. Elliott was given ten minutes to reply. It was during this reply that Mr. Elliott cast a reflection on Mr. Robt. McMillan that called forth such a loud protest from the au­ dience. Mr. Elliott stated that an advertisement in one of the county papers sating that he 'had made the motion to investigate- the county fi­ nances was an error. He contended he was the first to suggest that it be cleaned up .regardless of cost and that was where it got its origin Mr. Ballantyne stated that he had asked Mr. Elliott if he would make the resolution and the latter stated tha he had made it as a suggestion. Mr. Elliott stated that he had been a temperance man all his days am if elected would do all he could to uphold the temperance cause, The meeting closed with the National Anthem, Farmers Attention Why Feed Non­ Laying Hens?
