SPEECH FROM TIIE THRONE
Opening
of the Third Session of the Thirteenth
Legislature of qntario
The ispeech from. the Threhe nt tbe
eeponing,of tho Ontario Legiskeure at
Toronto on Wednesday is as follow
: -
Mr. Speaker and Gentlemen of the Lees-
lative Assembly:
It affords me pleasure to welcome YOU
to the dieohaege 'of your duties at this
the ,thirdeiseselon f ehe thirteenth Legis-
lature of this Provirtee.
Our thanks are due to an over -ruling
Providence for the abundant harvest with
which Ontario was bleated during the past
Year, which bas bad a steadying effect on
finetscial feud industrial conditions gen-
erally.
In common with our felloweeiLizene else-
where throughout Canada, the people of
Ontario have experioneed great satisfac-
tion Fiore the return of His Royal High.
ness the Governor•General to this eountrY,
accompanied by Her Royal Highnese the
Duchess of Connaught, whose restoration
to health has been a matter of general
thankfulness.
My Government was represented at the
Interprovincial Conference held last fall
In the city of Ottawa, in which every
Province in tho Deminkn participa.ted.
The Proceedings of the conference relating
.bo everalimportant subjects of public
interest will be leid before you for your
cousideration.
In accordance with the announcement
made at the kat naeeting of the Legielle
ture, a Commiesion on B,oade and High
ways has been appointed, and has begun
the prelimiunry, work for a scheme of road
improvement threughout the Province.
Publie hearings were held at various
places by means of which the viewe of
munieipal authoritiee and various organ/
izations were elicited. The inform:Ilion
thus ebtained willbe embodied in the re-
t f h . .
Ms egreemebt has been reaohed with
the Government of Grenade, for carrying
out, in' this Province tbe provisions of the"
agrifiultural inetruction act passed by the
Dominion Perim/moist to cover a period
of ten years. Ontario's first installment,
aggregating $195,000, has boon received,
and is being spent, along tbe lines of in.
erection apel demonetration. .
It is graiifying too observe the increased
interest on the poet of the farmere of tho
Province i0 approved agriculturej metle
ode. An inclication of this is found in the
feet tbat the attendenee at the Ontario
Agricultueal College is about double what
it wae ten years .ago, while the number
of new students regietered at the open-
ing of the present term shows. a maeked
advance over thee of tho previous Yen -i'.
To 'Meet these conditions an enlarged
equipment has been provided, and plans
for reveller extensions are now receiving
attention.
The Slumber of District Representatives
of the Ontario Department of Agriculture
bas been inereseed and the -work of fedi.
eiduel RoPresentative has been made more
effective, One marked feature has been
the holding of rural echo& fairs well a
view to interesting 1 -bit rising generation
in Setter agriculture -seventy of 'Wiese
Fairs having been held during tho past
season with marked success. It Is hoped
to extend thie work until the whole Pro -
vireo is served.
In consequence of the increased con-
aumption of power the Hydro-elootrio
Power C,oininission 1nse been melded to
make a further reduction in the prke of
electrioity. The Commission bee under
coneideratIon the duplication a the main
transmission line. and In constructing a
high-tension line to the western boundary
of -tile Province. Information regarding
radial railway projects hos boon furnish-
ed to communities :taking the assistance
of the Commission, while the efforts to
interest agriculturists ib the use of elec-
tricity bay° been eontinued with promis-
ing results. Durinic the past year the
Cornmission orgenized a department for
the inspectiqn of electrical installations;
eend equipment, in order toafford protec-
tion to life.and PrePeetY. •
The policy of road development in Nor-
thern Ontario, under the epatial leg:sta-
tion ef 1912, toe been extended from the
eastern to thb western bounds:ries of the
Province. About 500 miles' of roads, with
the neceesery bridges end drainege facile
ties, wee° wholly or partially &instructed
laet year, involving ,an expenditure of
about $1,100.000. The effect of thee work
upon eettletnent and upon the value of
film lands Ime already been noticeable -
The mineral produetiOn of Ontario'dur-
Mg the petit year was the largest yet re.
corded, there having been a considerable
increase in the output of nickel, copper
and gold, while the yield of silver was
• about equal to that of the prefious Year.
I am glad to know that there ' is every
proepect before the mining industry of a
period of further.expension.
An outstanding feature of the education.
situation during the year has been the
extension of industrial training through-
out the Province. In nearly all the laego
industrial centre; evening cheeeee have
been organized under the industrial and
education,aot, Missed in 1913, showing the
widespread desire for this class of in-
struction.
Sufficient Pregrets bee been made in the
work on the Central Prison Farm at
Guelph to warrant the enticipation that
the Octave Prison in Termite will be va-
meted in November next. The plan et prise
on reform adopted in the flew Institution
hae paseed the experimental stage. and M
proving eatisfactory Ser every respect. The
labor of the prisoners is being, utilized
also in connection with the brick ntanu-
teetering plant eatablielted at Mimico,
the produot of -which Is used only for pub-
lic feetitutions.
The new Hospital -for: the Insene tst
Whitby is now well advoreed and it In be-
lieved that a, earge eection .of it will be
completed and afford accommodation tor
five .hundred patients be the latter part
of the present year. .
The 'Conuniession appointed to roviso end
consolidate the Stetutesa of the Province
having completed its lobore, hae present-
ed ite final report, which will be laid be
Sons you. In the. meantime the deer:bit-
Mon hos already been commenced.
During the pest Yen. the PrOviece re-

forecasts current here. Vice -Presi-
dent Bury is in town conferring

cial statement. The Jorge amount
quoted, however, is said to be
spread ever a number of years, and
that double-traclang Dina other
parts of the programme will he pro-
ceeded with conservatively as the
uced arises.
At the premnt time there are 133
miles of doublestraek under way be-
tween Sudbury and Port Arthur,
on the Lake Superior Division,
which alone will cost $6,000,000;
178 miles of double -track between
Brandon and Calgary, ja) cost $5,-

work in the West, including the
irrigation works, the double -track-
ing, and the new trackage, amount-

BRITISH SUBJECT SLAIN
Tense Situation Develops Over E)ocution of William
.5. Benton by Gmeral Villa
A despatch from Washington saye-:
A slumbering kfexicart 'situation
was brought quickly to a point of
intense international interest on
Friday by the flash of a message
stating that William S. Benton, a
British ,subject, had been killed in
Juarezby mein:: of General- Fran-
cisco Villa, the Constitutionalist
commander. Sir Cecil Spring -Rice,
the 'British Ain,b,assador, cionferre,d
with Secretary, Bryan about it;
President Wilson and' his Cabinet
diseuseed it briefly, and a thor-
ough investigation N1,4a..& ordered by
the State Department from Consul
representatives on the border.
In this, .case, for the first time
since the .pre-seut revolution began
10, year ago, the general warning

foreigners went unheeded, though
there is evidence to, show that .both
the British Ambaasaclor and the
State Department were ariviaed tort
late of Benton's impending fate to
intercede specifically for him. The
news' shocked officials generally,
who had como to believe that Gen-
eral Villa fully realized the posi-
tion of the American Government
in regard, •te the protection of for-
eig.inirs in Mexico, particularly in
the north of that country.

train on Friday for Chihuahua

statement about the affair. Before
going he took with him all of the
guaeals 'he had at his headquarters,
hmluding the men who are believed
to have talren part in the execu-
tion, if the -re was an. exe.eution.
Mexican officials here claim that
Bentson was tried by a. court-mar-
tial aenspo-sed of, Judge Advocato
Lie Milian A.guierre Benavides,
presiding Judge Jesus Rodigucz,
Major Gloria ,and a court steno-
grapher. They- claim that Bentonwas found guilty after a formal
