Imperial Pulp 00., in the transac- :tion3 partly exvoaed last sen-ion. ;and since explained by' Mr. Amen in il'is campaign ag'tinst the. Land Graft- era. Mr. Frasa' put in most of his ' work on behalf. of these western gpolificinns who hold to-day the pick :of the western lands. He did some ‘smallm‘ business for himself also, and Elms just been sued for a division of ithc profits. On one deal where he got timber land from .the govern- ?m-M for £4,000, he sold it for'SIOOc 1000. It is not surprising if these iduzlls have made Mr. Fraser an im- pon's‘ihlo. candidate. If the men to whom the govern- ment gave these lands in such scandalous disregard of public inter- est and of morality and decency, have becdme "undesirable” what about the Government that gave the lands away? If it is not right to take the public domain for a fraction of ‘lts value, it is a still greater ‘crime for the public trustees to give it away to their friends and relations. If Mr. Fraser is an “undesirable" canâ€" didate, the Laurier government is an undesirable administration. The ministers must be got out of 'the goveralrnr'nt that gave the lands away, too. Remember that every deal which hrs defended by the government and its whole party. Even to this day ministers are declaring tl at nothing wrong has been shown. Yet the head of the goverlniment has been obliged to contest Ottawa, just because the peOpIe will not stand for the timber“ deailm. The change does not met the case.

Mr. Wm. ‘Price, one of the leading members of Quebec has ac- cepted nomination. Mr. Pone is out to recapture Compton. All of the Conservatives in the late House are candidates again. Then Mr. Bourassa, a former Lib- eral, whose brilliant campaign in the Provincial election marked him as one of the most influential men ' in the province, has signed the nomina- tion of the Conservative candidate in the Montreal riding which he cap- tured. It looks like twenty-five Quebec seats for the gonservativcs. The list of members who have es- caped into office is growing.

Then there are more to follow, in- A bigger man than Mr. Fraser 7is _ i ' 7 in trouble, and is found undesirable. Hon. \VilJiam I’ugsley, minister of public works, has been credited by the exliosure of his ex- ploits with the treasury of New Brunswick. Mr. I’ugsley was Atto‘r- ney General, with a salary of $2,100 and sessional indemntiy of three hundred a year. afterwards increased .to #600. Yet from 1901 to 1908. 'a Little over six years, Dr. Pugsley presented and was paid, bill for ser- vices and expenses amounting to over $22,551, or more than $3,500 Ila year. 8 O O In addition be continually drew from the treasury in over-drafts, so that at the end of the first year the baflance against him was $2,163: sec- utterly dis-' is going to the Senate, Einl‘ayson, of Richmond, who will be a judge. The government organs are publiSh- ing comparative statements showing that the national debt has increased only one and a half million .a year since the Liberals took office. This is an old story. Why not bring the statements down to date? What is the good of saying that the 'debt in- creased only $19,000,000 in the twelve years down to 1908, when it «has in- creased $27,000,000 last year? The .increase of August alone was $3,253,- 60t1â€"and the debt is growing steadily at the rate of three to rfour millianlsl a month. At this moment Mr. Field- ing is trying to borrow $25,000,000 in London. In addition he continually drew from the treasury in over-drafts, so that at the end of the first year the haflance against him was $2,163; sec- Nothing was known of these trans? actions; They did not appear in any official returns. The auditor was not permitted to say anything about it.i Just before the provincial election- the governlment was challenged on the finances. and produced what pur- ported to be a special report of an independent auditor, appointed to disclose the whole situation. There was not a word in his report about the Pugsley over-drafts. It turned out that other matters had been con- cealled. No one knew until after the change of government that Dr. Pug}- ley's leader and colleague had re- turned to the Crown Land Depart- ment over $13,000 which had been taken on "suspense account” with- out record 0! the transactiz-n. ond year $1.758; third year, $6,- 227; fourth year, $7,314; fifth year $7,030; sixth year, $6,605. When he. retired from Local Government and entered Dominion politics, the balance reported against him was $14,451. AAA in the west, obtained for five per cent. of its valuc, and worth Imany millions? What about Adamson of the Saskatchewan band deal. the Garlway land (1081 and many timber limits, the man who has th: advan- tage of b'ing brother- ’m-law of the late Commissioner of Lands? Are these desirable candidates? But how about the larger dealers: in the same line, men with whom Mr. Frnaur “as connected, and whom, he assisted to make millions, while he. made only hundrcd» of thousands? , \Vhat about Sifton and Turriff, who. as minister and chief comm‘ss’onen. put through these deals, and who‘ have. themaelves become suddenly] rich? “but about Burrowa,Sifton’s brother-in-fltaw, with his score of timber limits in he own name, |andl a dozen in other names. the member of parliament concerned in more than 1,000 square miles of the best 'timber the election.

An independent French paper points out that the. great feature of the 0011-; test in that province is the list ofi Strong ‘mcn who have come out as Opposition candidates, many of them who have hitherto refused to enter pofltitical life. Hon J. A. Ouimet, a former minister has retired from the bench, and is a candidate Ex- Judge: Doherty, Ex- Mayor Ekers are among the. new candidates in Montreal. I i l | I Grecnway, of Lisgar.

The Toront'f meetings were the greatest political' demonstration ever Since in that clty.’ and smaller cilia-s and towns werel no loss enthusiastic. It is bel'eved that the Conservative victory in this province will be more complete than, that of 1878. There is not a single' absoflmtrâ€"ly safe government seat in the whole province. 8 Hon. T. C. Casgrain is back 'on the field. Hon. Mr. Pelletier is a candi- dwte. Mr. Wm. Price, one of the leading members of Quebec has ac- cepted nomination. Mr. Pape is out to recapture Compton. All of the Conservatives in the late House are candidates again. Then Mr. Bourassa, a former Lib-: oral, whose brilliant campaign in the, Provincial election marked him as one of the most influential men ‘in the province, has signed the nomina-: tion of the Conservative candidate in' the Montreal riding which he cap-: tured.
