BATES, Editor and Proprietor FRIDAY, NOV.'19, 1920 We hear the saying that the Bowser government ruined the credit, of the province of '.British Columbia;, also- that Bowser is not absolutely honest. in 191.0, British Columbia 3iad floated a loan under the Bowser government in New York City-for. $1,000,000 fo be loaned out to the farmer at a lower rate than, could be En; 'secured by England and France ;i> ������"0 fo the 'i. cost tue jjiperais .^t'couu to auui books of the Conservative party'for .their .13 years in office, and they found that $103,- 000,000 of the' people's money had been expended and not one dollar misspent. This would appear to indicate that, t!; berais have been indulging in day-dreams, anil dreaming what they would like to be a reality. The Liberal campaign . against the Conservative party of this province has been one of the dark stains on the political Liis province, and we do not be- eve mat in any province in tho Dominion history of t^ lieve that lias such a campaign of slander been inaugurated against- any administration as has been conducted against parry of this ^articular. ,ne Conservative province and .Mr. Bowser in Believe us Bowser can stand it, and'when' he goes back to power on December 1st next he will have a life job as.premier of this province. "How is Mr. Martyn going to do'it?" ,1s he-going to be the whole government himself and SHELVE HON. JOHN OLIVER, or on- what authority has he' the right to make such line promises?- ��������� The electors of Maple Ridge are entitled to know. Mr. Martyn also talks about favoring co-operation between the government and ��������� good roads associations and municipal bodies in the ��������� furtherance of the cause of' better highways throughout the Fraser Valley. : All very fine. But-the one.form of co-operation that muuici- palifies want, either for good roads or for other municipal needs', ia a share of the. revenue that the government is grabbing for the provincial, treasury. Mr. Martyn is silent on that. The lead given by the Premier in his manifesto '.'That the question: of the more equitable adjustment, of taxation is most important," docs not lend itself to any flight of imagination on the part of his Dewdney candidateure. Mr. Martyn should face the Conservative promise, that made by Mr.' Bowser ih his capacity as leader of the Opposition, ^The Conservatives-if returned to power, will give assistance to Municipalities by paying them a per capita gra.:<t from the Consolidated Rev-������ enue which .will have the effect of reducing faxes." That is what the municipalities want ���������not. a line of irresponsible promises. The .1 iiC the The ciuestion is asked that tho Oliver government has, borrowed $27,530,000 in four years immediately after coming into power that the credit of the province could not have been so bad after all. But the big- question is what has become of all this money that Oliver is responsible for? There is one, thing sure that not much, of it has been spent on the roads of the Fraser Valley���������except in supervision. ' Elsewhere we publish' the Conservative platform as amended at the annual convention of September, 1919. Compare it with the claims of the Liberal party and see how much of it was stolen for legislation in the session of 1920. "Don" Martyn, the promising young politician for Dewdney, with the accent on the promise, has been reading good literature it seems to this paper, and we would not be surprised if in his studio one would not find a well-marked copy of the proceedings of the last Conservative convention held in September 1919. Just compare his platform in regard to the cheaper stumping powder and assistance to co-operative fruit industry, etc., there is a very great similarity, and we all know what Premier Oliver's ideas are on the fruit industry, as expressed in the Dominion campaign of 1911 when Reciprocity was the subject of discussion. Oliver could not have been "Don's" tutor 'in this respect, so the question is where did "Don" get it? He read it out of ths Conservative platform and thought it so good that he just simply said, here is a grand idea, I'll just take it and people will say that Bowser stole it from me. Murisy 1'ine Promises��������� <. With all the irresponsible enthusiasm of youth, says the British Columbian, Mr. Donald I J. Martyn, Liberal candidate in Dewdney presents his election platform of promises that OOFS THE LIMIT. Everything the Oliver government has not done for Dewdney Mr. Martyn promises he will do. Thus a greater than Hon. John Oliver has come into prominence. He reiterates these promises at the meetings. "If you send me to Victoria," he declared in his Haney -speech, "I pledge to work' for. the construction of a hard-surfaced roadway from the City .of Vancouver to Mission." * " But the report does not say how Mr. Martyn proposes ..that this will be brought about. if he goes to Victoria, lie goes as 'a'supporter of the Oliver government, and Premier Oliver, is not building any more primary roads, outside of the Pacific Highway and. the Transprovin- cial Highway links. The Premier was most emphatic about that in liis reply to a deputation from tlie Surrey and Delta municipalities concerning their application for the Scott road fo be made a primary road, and he was, definite in his refusal concerning the North ���������Shoro highway. The people of Maple Ridge kiicv, .hat. &o the question comes up again: 3Iaut-KJI.������i.������r��������� Wi!h������ut. the Scaius��������� following editorial appeared in ���������Vancouver World last week: Seven hundred people listened in vain last night to hear from Premier. Oliver how he slew the demon patronage. On the one big pledge, whereby he. attained power he was as shy and silent as. an erring woman regarding her past. Though- he loudly defied his critics, he carefully avoided their charges: Like the comic-opera hero, he made- the cowards run��������� but they couldn't catch him. He was not only dumb as to his exploits slaying the monster, but ignored the specific statement that it is' roaming the streets and roads ofthis province in lustier health than for years past. He was dumb as well on. the charges read on the floor of the House last session That he had guilty knowledge of the matters'for which he permitted Mr. Macdonald alone to suffer. His triumphant reference to the suit he instituted against his assailant, Mr. R. T. Elliott, and his recovery of twenty-Jive cent damages deceived no one. Most people remember that he sued Mr. Elliott on another . charge altogether, namely that if improperly acquiring northern lands intended for soldiers. By suing on one count only he inferentially admitted the rest. Evidently the jury considered that if he did not consider that the other charges damaged his reputation, twenty-five cents would be generous allowance for the fracture to his fame caused by the one of which he comnlain- . ed. Because the Premier later declared that these other charges would be. threshed out on the hustings, and because he has so far overlooked that promise in this campaign, The World yesterday ventured to remind him of it. He is still silent. He evidently has no answer. This will surprise no one familiar with the Premier's methods. His threats, like his promises, are no" index to his performances "He declared that Mr. Elliott could not assail him and "get away with it." But Mr. Elliott did. Mr. Oliver warned his junior supporter from Vancouver that the House could not hold the two of them. But it did. He invaded North Vancouver to annihilate Mr. Hanes. But he strengthened him. Vancouver last night saw the giant-killer in full war paint, and brandishing his club���������but without scalps.

The only return for this is the knowledge that they did not represent Ihe wishes of the people. A strange condition surely, considering our representative form of government. This was done after the government leaders had-taken extended tours of the province, having every oportunity to gauge public sentiment, thus stamping the Oliver Administration as an appealer to sentiment, rather than an expression of it. An administration of statesmen in a similar cas'e would have sensed public sentiment, expressed it in legislation, and stood or fell by the issue, saving the people of the province $100,- 000 That the Oliver Government will be'discarded on December 1st is a foregone conclusion.
