THREE -CORNERED FIGHT IN
SOUTH HURON
(Continued from page one)
D. F. McGregor
D. la: McGregor, the Liberal can-
didate 'was the next speaker. He
said he was born in Stanley, taught
school for two years in Hay tp. and
for 13 years had been clerk of Tuck
ersmith. He thought that farmers
should organize for social, educa.
tional and economic purposes. He
did not believe that a political party
could flourish or a government car-
ry on as a class party or government
When Drury capitulated" to Morrison
he surrendered one of . the greatest
!principles of a government. The
farmer's platform was framed to
.'batch farmers. They preached cor-
ruption and their criticism . was un-
just. •The U.F.O. criticized the ex -
1
penditures of the old parties. In
• the second. year of the Drury admin-
istration they spent_ six million dol-
lars more than the Liberals spent
during the 33 years 'they were in
power. It requires thirteen million
dollars a year to meet the interest.
Mr. McGregor said that there was
another party seeking support. He
said that there was no man Tess en-
titled to support than Hon. Howard
Ferguson. He referred to the sol-
dier settlement scheme at ] apascas-
1 ing by Mr. Ferguson.: After thous-
' ands of dollars had been spelt in the
' scheme it cost the province a million
dollars to clean it up.
Mr. McGregor outlined the differ-
ent planks in the Liberal platform.
The Liberals pledge themselves to
cut off all unnecessary expense. They
stand for re -adjustment of agricul-
tural conditions to place agriculture
in the forefront; a more equitable
distribution of hydro power, and ri-
gid enforcement of the Q.T.A.
Thos. McI1illan
Thos. McMillan spoke on behalf
of Mr. McGregor. He stated that
as far as the candidates were con-
cerned any one of them would make
a good representative. There was
just the policies that the three part-
ies stood for. Four years ago the
country passed judgment on the re-
cord of the Conservative party. Since
that tame the Conservatives hayje
changed their leader. Hon. Howard
Ferguson has left a record that no
citizen can feel proud of. Ninety per
cent of the people want good gov-
ernment regardless of party affilia-
tion. Mr. Ferguson handed out 26
timber limits. An investigation
brought back $300,000 and in the
case of the Shevlin-Clarke deal will
mean closeto a -million and a half'
dollars. We are asked to place a man
with such a reputation in power. In
33 years` of Liberal rule the expendi-
tures were ineresed from 21/2 to 514
millions of dollars. The Conserva-
tive govt. increased it to 47 millions
"They had the war" said a heckler'
amid cheers. The expenditure for
the war was taken from the pockets
of the people by direct taxation, said
the speaker. "Ani 1 right wliexi I

direct taxation? asked the speaker.
The farmers' government'has fallen
down alieolutely to any one they
leave had to do with. Tlie staff of
Civil Servants was increased from
256 to 274 the second year and pro-
vided thein with a 'superannuation,

a the
candidate said he had always heard
Mr. Medd and Mr, McGre o '
g z highly
spoken ,of. In the past four years
Wellington Hay had held up both
hands for everything the Drury gov-
ernment had done and Howard+
Fer-
guson and his followers iiad all the
work to do. The United States, he
said, sent :farmers to Congress as
members of' either party, They form•
ed a farriers block and worked to-
gether when their interests were at
stake. J. J. Morrison could not make
a success of 'farming. He got a job
as secretary of the U.F.O. at a salary
of $2500, and another with the Co -
Operative Co. for another $2500,
The Drury government are spending
two million dollars on education.
The grants are so Set 'that it is
cheaper for a S. S. to engage a teach-
er at $1000 than at $800. Lady
teachers are istarted, at $1000 and
that is all they expect to get until
they are married. Out of every dol-
lar collected bymunicipalities for
taxes, about forty per cent is the
'vera paid e
g p d fcr education. Parents
may he able to send their children
to 1I. school free but it is costing
places like Hensall and Exeter too
Much money for, education. '-.EThe de-
partment of Hon.
Mr. Biggs came
in
for, some criticism. They had spent
over 38 million dollars on the roads.
On the Stratford to Goderich high-
way the government paid the con-
tractor $17 ayard for'cement nt ' cul-
verts, the govt. supplying the gravel,
The coiliity had had culverts build
for $10 a yard, the contractor sup-
plyii>(g the gravel. The contract for
cutting down • the. Holmesville hill
was let for 86c per cubic yard. ' The
contractor re -let it for ,51c. He made
a profit of $10,000 'and never dug a
shovelful, Huron County last year
received a bill for $15,000' as its por-
tion for road .building. Before pay-
ing the account they wrote three let-
ters to the department for a detailed
account. After three months the
statement was received. It cost 68c
a mile to gravel the provincial road
while th average in the five counties
of Huron, Perth, Bruce, • Middlesex
and Lambeth was 41c a yard. Why
