Mr. Stfike spoke a few words, but there was no objection in council to the work. (Continued from Page 1) Ald. McCrae said the G.T.R. was steadily raising the track north of Kent-st for some distance north to decrease the grade to the top of the hill. Ald. O’Reilly was sure at it for the road alongside was lower than it used to be. Aid. Maunder had not seen the track raised any in 14 years. The mayor said the av- enue road was wearing away and thus getting lower. ON FRIDAY NIGHT @ On Friday night council met and read twice the by-law providing for $12,000. The vote will be taken on Sept. 11th. Aid. Robinson said he had worked against the last money bylaw. He was, in fact, the only man who took out his team to work against it and hence he could not support this one. Ald. Maupdcr would not agree to let the people vote on a $12,000 bylaw because he believed they should vote on a $10,000 one.

As an alternative to the. Grand Trunk Pacific he favored the extension west- ward of the Intercolonial Railway. the purchased the Canada Atlantic and its gradual extension westward as conditions warranted it. On no previous occasion has Mr. Blair come out so strongly for public owner- ship. He has now owned himself an earnest sympathizer with the cause. and while he admits some minor deâ€" fects in the operation of the prin- ciple he seems to be ready to conâ€" sider these as more spots on the sun. Mr. Chan-Ito- Replies. Mr. Charlton argued that the Gov- ernment had given the subject deep thought before coming to a decision upon it. He declared that this sub- Ject had been before the country for monthsâ€"for years almost. The rail- way could not be built for live years. and the Government was simply pre- paring ior conditions in the West fin: years hence when the production of that section would be quadrupled. Mr. Blair had accused the Govern- ment of being animated chiefly by a desire to please Senator Coi, “but that," said Mr. Charlton, "was an implication unworthy oi the honor- able gentleman as applied to his late colleagues, who are providing Mr. Blair had nude llzht o! it. the ' This was Mr. Blair's first smash or blow at the scheme. and it had no splendid isolation in his speech. 0n the whole the speech was broad and argumentative. That tribute is ,duu him. He stated his objections to the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway s-t-hcmc on broad national grounds. and took up the New Brunswick aspect oi the situation only in defence of the In- tercolonial Railway. New Brunswick- ers who have committed themselves in favor of the Grand Trunk Paciiic will think twice when they read Mr. Blair's speech. He showed the efiect the new road would have on the country served by the I.C.R., and on the city of Moncton, whose Board of Trade some time ago passed a reso- lution favoring the scheme. The nic- ture he drew was a dismal one. Some ‘ of the Liberal members from New ‘ Brunswick who haxe been a1 gut-d jollied or bullied into supporting the Government on this question will pause before turning that picture to the wall. Blair's ill-concealed contempt for the [poetic phrases which graced the [speech in which Sir Wilfrid Laurier presented the scheme to the House. On this topic Mr. Blair undoubtedly set free some bitihg sarcasm, though it was noticeable in his tone rather ;thaa in any specific words. lore Accurate Statement. "The Right 11011., the First Minis- ter, says that time does not wait." said Mr. Blair early in his speech. "“ith all respect to him Isa that it would be more accurate, it sa{not as poetic, to say that Senator Cox does not wait." I What angered Liberals was Mr. as Mr. Blair Was rounding on! his argument in an appeal to his ald- time supporters to lay a restraining hand upon the Government, a few derisive cheers came from the Gov- ernment benches. Again Mr. Blair turned the tables on those who sought to ridicule and discredit him. “up” at Argument. From the beginning to the end of the four hours' speech was a succesâ€" sion of triumphs of argument fox Mr. Blair. Liberals admit that Mr. Blair made a powwful argument. Their criticism is that he was too bitter, and that by his bitterness he turned from him men who were in- clined to sympathize with his argu- ment. It cannot be fairly said that ‘ Mr. Blair was bitter in his references to the Grand Trunk Pacific Railnay scheme. He did not go to extremes in his condemnation of the Govern- ment’s policy. though he undoubtedly made his language severely clc‘ar. w-â€" ,7 at House. In ‘sullen-iiilen‘ce the Gov- ernment’s followi'ng heard the Grand Trunk Pacific - Railway scheme con- demned. Early in"'hi's 'specch there was an interrdption. It Was the last.
