THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, SErIEMBER 12, 1920 i rFAGE Ning PRENIER RHODES OPENS CAMPAIGN N.S. Prime Minister Deliv- ers First Speech at Windsor Windsor, N, S., Sept. 11--Prem- ferr E. N. Rhodes launched his campaign here for the return of his Government in the provincial elections of Oct, 1 with a speech in which he reviewed the financial situation confronting the province on his assuming power in July, 1925, stressed the progress made in industry, in agriculture and in education during his term of of- tice, and announced that if return- ed to power neither he nor his Gove ernment would attempt to intro- duce Government control of the sale of liquor without a furthes reference to the people. He also set at rest rumors that he contemplated resigning on aec- count of ill-health, His health had been completely restored and he sertainly had no intention of giving ap the Premiership of Nova Scotia in the event of his return to power. Previously Premier Rhodes and Hon, Albert Parsons, Speaker of the House of Assembly in the last Legislature, had been tendered and had formally accepted the Conser- vative nomination for Hants Coun- ty. The Premier addressed his re- marks to "the great evmy of Lib. arals who had assisted in driving from office the discredited Arm- strong Government in 1825." as well as to his own party stalwarts. It Liberals and Conservatives had had god reason, he declared, for joining forces in the interest of good government in 1925, the rea- san was doubly sound to-day when the report of Messrs. P. S. Ross and Sons, a firm of internationally known accountants, disclosing some of the mal-administration of the late Government was before the public, Auditors' Report This report had stated that the records left by the late Govern- ment were "inaccurate, misleading and incomplete and were valueless as a source of information' The re- port had further shown that the Murray Government had falsified the occounts of the province to the extent of $100,000 in 1028, that there were millions of dollars in undisclosed liabilities and more millions in uncollectable taxes. The accounts of the province were in such a chaotic condition indeed, that the auditors reported it would be impossible ever to accurately re- construct all the fiscal transactions of the province previous to 1923. As a result of the audit four offic- lals of the Armstrong Government had heen convicted of theft and two nad gone to the penitentiary. What- ever the weakneses of his Govern- ment, none of its officials would go to jail and there would be no burning of hooks. The leader of the Opposition in pis manifesto had attempted to gloss over the defaleations hy stat- Ing that in all they only amounted to $17,000. The Premier likened this to the case of a man who had stolen a horse and then had at- empted to justify himself in the eyes of the owner hy pointing out that he had not confiscated his en- tire stable. He had endeavored at all times to he fair to his political opponents. But in this cage he did pot think Hon, William Chisholm was being fair to himself. For his own part he found it difficult to conceive of a politician with a moral sense so blunted as to pres- ent such an argument. The Liberal party was not to blame for the hope less condition of affairs disclosed by the auditors, the Premier con- tended. But the Liberal party had been betrayed by its leaders and by the same leaders who were now appealing to them for suport. NATION INTERESTED IN MAINE ATTITUDE Vote Should Show Political Trend Due in Novem- ber, Claim Portland, Me., Sept 11.--Maine voters lined up Monday for the first official count of Republican and Democratic noses since Her- bert Hoover and Alfred E. Smith became party standard bearers, Although going to the polls pri- marily to chose a governor, sena- tor, congressmen and other state officials, Maine was expected to show, by the size of its Republican majority, which way the political wind will blow in November. **As Maine goes, 80 goes the na- tion," is an adage long attached to state ctions. aine is the only state that clings to its early September elec- tions, originally intended to keep state and national politics separate, and the outcome invariably is in- terpreted as an indication of the national political trend. Campaign orators in both parties have pleaded with voters this year to "point the way' for the nation, and some candidates have stress- ed national issues in their plat- forms. Neither party leaders mor candidates would venture public numerical prediction of the out- come. All agreed, however, that the vote would be unusually large. "I have never seen the state so fnterested in an election." said U. $. Senator Frederick Hale, Re- publican, who is running for re-elec tion against Herbert Holmes, Democrat, . VERMONT CUSTONS ACTIVE IN AUGUST Amount of Fines Assesssd Amounted to $5,023 During Month St. Albans' Vt., Sept, 11.-- The month of August, 1928 was a par- ticularly busy one with the customs border and lake patrol officers of the Vermont customs district, ae- cording to a statement just issued by Collector Harry C.
