LIBERALS' POLICY Grand Trunk Pacilic Railway Being Hurried to Completion Hudson Bay Railway Will Help the Farmers of the West CONSERVATIVE POLICY LIBERAL POLICY Uncompromisin] opposition to the entire scheme. Frivolous objections on account of cost. No considera tion given to tin public interest. Prohibitive tariff which prevents coin mercial expansion. Attempts to belittle the enterprise and give it a po liticai complexion A disposition to hamper the govern ment in its opera tions. Captious criticism of trivial ex penditures. General allegations of wrong do ing, but no specific charges. Total absence of constructive policy Early completion of Grand Trunk Pacific to relieve congested transparta- tion condition of the Dominion. Inauguration of work on Georgian Bay canal to lower freight rates to the seaboard. Tariff for revenue, which does not retard commercial growth. Substantial encouragement to all- red line to divert Australian traffic via Canada. Vigorous prosecution of work on existing waterways. New market for Canadian products. Economy in administering public affairs. Practical sympathy for railway to Hudson Bay, thus providing easy access to tlio sea for the grain of the West. Disposition of the coal lands in the interest of the consumer. Farm lands for the nattier. With a general election within measurable distance, the public mind is naturally directed to the policy of tho government of the day, and the policy of the party in opposition which it is sought to offer for the acceptance of the people. There seems to be no difficulty in holding up for public inspection the policy, past and present, of the Liberal party, and submitting the practical working out of that policy for the approbation of the people. First and foremost comes that great national undertaking, the Grand Trunk Pacific railway, of which Sir Wilfrid Laurier said when he submitted his policy on the subject to the people: "Upon this policy I will stand or fall." It cannot bo said that Sir Wilfrid failed to guage tho public mind correctly upon this important matter, for his government was endorsed by an enormous majority, and the premier was continued in his gieat office pledged to build the transcontinental railway. How well his pledge has been kept ii the proud boast of the Liberal party and the envy of their political opponents. It is passing strange that the opposition in the house wasted week after week in fruitless attempts to prove criminal extravagance against the government with respect to trifling things, but passed the estimates covering millions of dollars for the railway almost without comment. Tho policy uf tho Liberal government is to employ every effort towards the speedy completion of this great enterprise, to the end that the people of Canada may have additional transportation facilities, and that- tht' fullest advantage may be taken of the era of prosperity which Canadians enjoy. It has been made evident that thi' people of Canada are ill favor of building the Georgian Bay canal. Millions have already been spent in securing information and making pliins and surveys, and the next step will be of a practical nature. The Liberal government is in favor of building this canal, and while the expense will be great the advantage derived will be greater. This is no light undertaking—at least 8100,000,000 will be absorbed before the work is done, but the government has faith in itself, it has faith iu the productive power of the country, and it has faith iu the energy and ability of tho people.. In the opinion of the Liberal government tho money of the peoplecannot be bitter spont than in a national work which will benefit every section of the country. When the Liberals in 1896 prom ised to construct a tariff that would produce a revenue without placing undue burdens on the people, they cannot be said to have "builded better than they knew," for results show they secured the result they promised. The duties collected last year amounted to $53,006,546, which was $7,877,537 in excess of the previous year, and §35,119,277 greater than the total customs collected in 1895, the eighteenth year of Conservative rule. In that year, the last the Conservatives were in power, their prohibitive tariff, which retarded expansion in trade and closed foreign markets to Canada only produced $17,-' 887,269. It is interesting to note that for the first three months of the current fiscal year, ending 30th June, 1907, the revenue was $15,122,092, an increase of $"2,91)4,391 over tho corresponding period of last year. The average rate of duty has been 51.81 per cent under the old tariff. In other words, the average duty is less and the revenue the largest in the hist iry of the Dominion. Attempts are made by the Conserva tive press to belittle the new Canadian enterprise, the "All-lied Line" project. Upon the one hand they would have it appear that the idea originated with the Conservative party, and a criticism is directed at the project containing the allegation that the scheme provides only for passenger trallic and not for freight. There is no foundation for such criticism. The soheire contemplates placing vessels on tho Atlantic service which will be of special benefit to Canadian farmers, whose perishable products will be landed in the shortest time and in the best condition in the markets of the United Kingdom. It is true the ConservaflVos talked of this project as they did of others, but nothing more came of it. The Laurier government is a government that does things. In Conservative days it was regarded as good policy to talk of the advantages of canal building. In Liberal days canal building goes on apace.

A PRESENTATION lMtii|ii(-t of flowers by (ieo. Massie's little daughter, The meeting broke up with the ginning of "A.ulii Lung Syne." The vacancy in this eity caused by A.L.Clements Receives De- m,-. Clements' promotion hns not served Promotion for -*"-* '"'" *il1'"1* Faithful Service Oddfellows Present Him With an Address and Silver Service Set Mr. A. I>. Clements, who has been C.P.R, agent in this city for the past eight years, having held that position ever since the road commenced doing business here, has been promoted to terminal superintendent at Vancouver, nnd will leave for that eity early next week with his family, as his appointment becomes effective on August 1. During his residence here Mr. Clements has tnken an nctive part in public affairs, having served for two terms in the city council with marked ability,nnd has also taken nn active pnrt in nil other matters calculated to advance tho growth and prosperity of the city. It is therefore with a feeling of sincere regret thnt the citizens say good-bye to Mr. nnd Mrs. Clements nnd their estimable family. The sorrow of pnrt- ing with a go;id citizen, however, is somewhat softened by the remembrance thnt his faithful services have resulted in merited promotion. Mr. Clements is a prominent member of Gateway Lodge No. 45, and last evening about 75 members with their wives assembled at the hall to bid him farewell. Walter Hadden, noble grand, presided and mnde n brief opening speech, nfter which the following program was gone through: Overture, by F. J. Paiuton; song, Miss Phila- Wells; recitation, Walter Hadden; phonograph selections were given throughout thc evening by Harry Itter. The numbers given were highly appreciated. After the conclusion of the musical portion ot the program, Mr. T. L Crossen, districl deputy grand master, rend a benulifully engrnved address, from the lodge,to Mr. Ole nionts, expressing deep regret at losing n man of such a splendid character, such sterling worth and ability, nnd wishing him and his family godspeed and prosperity nt thoir new home. Mayor Iluminur followed in a felicltlousspeech, during which he presented to Mr. Clements On behalf of the lodge a lienutiful silver service consisting of 56 pieces. The mayor expressed the hope thnt it would not bo long before Mr. C'lo- inenls would be promoted (o Mr. Mnrpole's position. Mr. Fred Clark also made a neat speech, expressing regret at the removal from the city of Mr. and Mrs. Clements. Mr. Clements wns deeply moved by this show of good-will, and replied feelingly, expressing gratitude for the kind words showered on him and his family. Throughout the speech-making during the evening Mrs. Clements wns frequently referred to as nn estimable lady of a sweet disposition. She wns presented with a beautiful IGJ.11 After several months' labor, the installation of an irrigation system on the fruit ranches owned by Wm. Doull and Al. Traunweiser, situated a mile and a half southwest of the city, hns been completed, nnd on Tuesday afternoon a test was made. The system was constructed under the superintendence of E. E. Gibson, of the West Kootenny Power & Light company. It is the first time in the history of tbis section of the country when electricity has been used for irrigating purposes Mr. Doull's ranch consists of sixty acres and has a good sized bearing orchard, and Mr. Traunwciser's plnce comprises eighty acres. On the latter ranch there are about 300 trees, a lnrge portion of them bearing. The front pnrt of these two ranches lies about a thousnnd yards from the main Kettle river, from which the water is pumped. A pumping station has been erected near the Great Northern bridge over the river and a 6x8 triplex pump and 20 h.p. motor installed. The power conies in from Phoenix over the Cascade wire with 2200 volts, stepped down at the station by a transformer to 220 volts. Seven thousand feet of 4-inch stave pipe have been Irtid in all, and 25 1-inch hydrants are used on the ranches. The effective bend would be about 90 feet nnd tbe static hend some 60 feet. Mi. Gibson thinks that 10 horsepower will be sufficient to satisfactorily operate the system. The pump is fitted with an automatic discharge, so that when the wat ir is not needed it releases itself a id flows back into the river. When the water was turned on last Tuesday twelve of the hydrants were discharging a lull stream with a good pressure, and when the system is in thorough working order there is little doubt that the whole 25 can be operated at once. Very little leakage wns apparent in the whole length of the piping, und after n day or two's soaking the wooden pipe will take everything up. The intake pipe is placed two feet below the water nnd the suction is thirteen feet, the station being built a few leet above high-water mark. This is the first serious attempt made to systematically irrigate the fruit lands south of the river, and the outcome will be watched with a great deal of interest. At present there appears to be no reason why tbe electric irrigating system should not prove sufficiently economical to warrant the installation of pumping stations throughout the valley.

Phone No. 30s =Opposite CP.R. Station LIBERALS' POLICY (Continued from Page One) congregated on that occasion found cause to bless the government for the progress it has made in this necessary branch of public works. The Trent Valley canal will be vigorously pushed until it becomes a completed system. Sir Wilfrid Laurier lias already expressed himself in favor of a line from some point in tho west connecting with Hudson Bay. Tlm people in the West have received with infinite delight the assurance of the prime minister that the government is aware of its responsibilities with respect to this road. The advantages to the farmers of the West are manifold. The freight rate upon grain from the wheat belt to Hudson Bay would approximate 10 cents a bushel. This is a freight the farmer could afford to pay, the additional 15 cents to get the grain to the Atlantic seaboard is prohibitive and represents a fair profit to the wheat grower. Wheti one pursues these figures and calculates the legitimate measure of foreign demand for Canadian wheat, the amount saved o the western farmer who has facilities for shipping via Hudson Bay reaches a colos sal sum. When one reflects upon Canada's great western heritage, with its vast natural resources, its inexhautible vitality, its great wheat areas, its teeming acres of grazing land, the industrial and commercial genius of its enterprising and aggressive people the conclusion cannot be reached that all should go for naught, or be in any manner compelled to fall short of their greatest realization by the mere incident of neglect with respect to providing intelligent transportation. The government of the day is sensible of their responsibility in this regard and if the people of the great West can be brought 1000 miles nearer a European market via Hudson Bay by the building of a railway, then the Laurier government may be confidently relied upon to see that the road is built. A revolution in traffic routes through Oanada is bound to come, and the strategic point is, without doubt, Hudson Bay. The citizens of Canada have scarcely realized the transportation advantages of the country in the extraordinary rapidity with which they are now being developed under the fostering encouragement of a Liberal government. All outlet at Hudson Bay will annihilate a quarter of t'ie distance from Western Canada to Europe, bring uncounted millions of acres in the wheat belt ldOO miles nearer the market and cut in half the annual transportation cost of 50,000, 000 bushels of grain. The people nre well advised to place their trust iu the far-sighted, comprehensive attitude of the Laurier gov eminent to subjects of great nntionn interest. The energies of the government an being directed towards the opening up of new markets for tho products of Canada, Tho minister of finance is now engaged iu negotiations with Uer many and France, seeking to sec are uetter trade relations. In due course tho results of his-s-ft'orts will be submitted to parliament and the people, and by results the government is always content to be judged. In 1S95-G, after eighteen years of Conservative rule, the finance minister presented the people with a deficit of $330,451.31. The year before the deficit has over .54,000,000, and the year before that ,-$1,210,000. For ten years the Liberal governmens can show a surplus each year. The average surplus is nearly $10,000,0(JO tt year. In 1905-06, after ten years of Liberal rule, the Liberals had a surplus of 812,893,719. In 1895-fi, after eighteen years of Conservative rule, the Cnnsi'i-untives managed with their high and oppressive tariff-to secure a revenue of $3'v 618J590.. The revenue for the year ending June 80, 1907, was over §91,- 200,0011 nfter ten years if Liheial rule. At the present rate of increase, which is about one million it month, the revenue of the Dominion this year wiil be nearly three times what it wns ten years ago, A government which enn reduce the rate of taxation and increase tiie revoni e is a popular government with the people. With iiiicxninpli'il prosperity and immense revenue flowing into the treasury, the government has not been unmindful of its obligations to the people.

D. G. Evans acted as chairman, and called the meeting to order at 3 o'clock. Moved by H. Hacking, seconded By R. Clark, that the secretary be requested to memorialize the minister of lands and works to the effect that the settlers along the North Fork of Kettle river are greatiy dissatisfied at the condition of the roads in the district, both at the amount of money available and in the manner of spending it to the best advantage; also, where the Kettlo Valley railway cook the road they have left it in a dangerous condition—a "veritable mantrap.

Having no policy, they attack that of thoir opponents. Opposition to the Grand Trunk Pacific railway, both in principle and in the working out of practical details, is the nover ending occupation of the Conservatives. They fail to realise that Canada under Liberal government demands increased transportation advantages, both as 'to railways and canals. They see Camilla as it was during the eighteen years they misgoverned the country and retarded its progress. They don't appear to appreciate that the Dominion now requires statesmanship, and not paltry politics. Accustomed as they were to small revenues, little foreign trade, not much in the way of imports, and barely business enough to keep the railways moving, they cannot grasp that under Libera! administration, the commerce of the country has grown to such extent that the freight cannot be carried by the existing railroads. Ai year after year went by the Conservatives found the public debt piling up, and their annual recurring deficits made it impossible for them to entertain the idea of prosecuting great public works. Yearly surpluses such as the Liberals can show are a revelation and a source of envy to the Conservatives, who yearn to return to power and enjoy the fruits of Liberal acumen and statesmanship. Having nothing to offer the people, it remains for the Conservatives to hamper the government in its operations—to make captious criticism of trivial expenditures, to advance general allegations of wrong-doing, but without making specific oharges that would demand investigation. There is in fact a total absence of constructive policy. The Conservatives invite the people to sell their birthright for a mess of pottage, but the people have more sense. Sir Wilfrid Laurier enjoys in a marked degree the confidence of the people of Canada. Since he assumed power in 1896 he has surrounded himself with colleagues selected from the flower of the Liberal party. It is not unlikely that once more he iimv find it expedient to call to his aid able men of his party. It will be found that his selection will be wise and in the interests of the country at large. Canada demands the services of her best men, and from tho Liberal party a selection can be made to fill acceptably any office in the gift in the government. Statesmanship of a high order has brought Canada to her present enviable position as Ihe brightest star in the constellation of colonies. Sir Wilfrid will call for the services of such men as will enable him to continue the policy which has raised Canada from the position of an obscure colony to the dignity of un einbrvo nation.
