Nearly every person Wag a commission. Perhap: some of you here in Kingston were on one. 1 you were not, you must have been overlooked. All publie works were stopped. It was thought that there was something dishonest in every- thing carried on by the Liberals.

(Cheers.) A Pure Fake Report. "There was a commission to inves- tigate things in general, but this was top heavy, and could find nothing. The chairman of this commission eventually got out of reach, and af- ter an attack made by Mr. Carvell, there was never a report which was worth two cents. (Loud applause.) "Two gentlemen were paid $100,- 000, sufficient to pay for a hundred machine guns--and all for nothing. A report was given which was a pure fake. It was full of errors and mis- {statements.

In or- pol to build ships was ali right. But on account of this coalition with the Na- tionalists the Conservatives could not adopt thig policy. British Columbia found itself without protection. Two submarines were' purchased, which were afterwards found to be of no service. © The wisdom of the policy of Sir Wilfrid to build ships had been proven. 3 The speaker then referred to the breaking out of the war, and stated that when war was declared Sir Robert Borden did not have a French-speaking member who could Eo on the platform in Quebec and call for recruits. It was not until just recently .that a member could be se- cureitito fill the bill. a "You" have heard it said thit the French-Canadians are not enlisting in the numbers that they shodld, but I want to say that the conditions are better than you think. Just look at the casualties and you will see many young French-Canadians, who have fallen or have been wounded. It thete have not been the number that there should have been, Sir Robert Borden and the men who support him are the men responsible. ' They got into power 'on that policy. When the time comes the people, of Canada will see that the men who made up that combination are. given the re- ward they deserve." (Cheers.) Complaint had been made by the Conservative party over the amount expended on the National Trangcon- tinental Railway, but it was adver- tised as the greatest road. in the world, and the only fault that could be found was that it was built too! good. when the war was over the three for the carrying on of this war.

Sir Robert Borden told this story himself. Was it any won- der that the people of Canada com- plained? 'It was well known that there had been some dissatisfaction throughout recent election in Peel county had been an issue on war contracts, and 1,000 votes. This had beén in pro- vinecial affairs, but in this case Mr. Fallis was purchasing agént for the Dominion Government, "This was the issue, and if he did wrong the Government allowed him to do wrong. It was the people's money that was secured and given back. The Dominion Government was condemned, The people of Canada will show that they will not tolerate that kind of work. "We are in this war, and we are going to stay with it until we win. What I do say is this, that all must pay an equal share." Under the new tax of Sir Thomas White, the speaker declared that many Canadian concerns would be driven out.

Of course 1 the Liberal administration, the Con- Bervative party proceeded to increase the expenditure on ordinary work. This occurred in the latter part of 1913 and 1914, when the word was; sent abroad to "go slow." Every business man was warned. Hard times were coming. The business men took the warning, but the Gov- ernment proceeded to increase their ordinary expenditure. While the Liberals expended less than $100,- icy. 000,000 on ordinary work, the Con-|sue? servatives spent $140,000,000 on gone to the country. the same line of work.
