The greatest asset of a country is the people, and as the people are measured to a large extent by their intelligence, it is necessary to give them a goo-d education. It Will cost more money to provide good teachers and good equip- ment Along educational lines. much larger expenditures have been made than formerly. but higher salaries paid in the West induce the teachers to go there as soon as they have received their education To assist the province is paying better salaries, and keep the teachers at home. the Govern- men? steps in and supplements all salaries above “300. For exaniile if .2 teacher is paid $14.00 the Government pays $40; if .3300 be paid the Govcznment pazss 5‘53: 31d so on vet the West is Still off-31*‘nggreater inducements and taki 1g away many of our teachers has helping to cause a scarcity in our own province. Our Model sch-ma has been retained and the abolitior of the Mt. Forest Model schoui was not through the action of the Government. The people Tax on Express companies ,caused an increase of about $45;- 000. Tax on Stock Exchange com- gpanies is also responsible for an increase of about $30, 000. The expenditure of the province has likewise been largely increas- ed, three times as much being given for educational purposes. together With large additional expenditures for the construction of government and colonization roads. These, together Wiuh taxes on race tracks, moving picture shows, increased liquor license, succession duties. pubpwood concessions, and other sources, nearly doubled the revenue of the province during the seven years the present Govern- ment is in power. é On rising, Dr. Jamieson said he had represented the electors of “South Grey in the Local Legislaâ€" tme for about fourteen \e,ais the :first seven of which he was in opposition. Since the Whitnev fadministration assumed the reins of government, he admitted that he had been a consistent follow e1 I‘of Siz James Whitney” because he thought he was giving the prov- ince a good clean government. In this contest there were no areat issues before the people. The of education, agriculture, the .maintenance of gaols» asylums. ,etc., to look after. The increased taxation of rail- ways from $30 to $60 per mile was another source from Which the revenue Was largely increased. On-edhalf of this goes back each year to the municipalities. The increase in revenue was made up by an increase of the Dominion subsidies. which was fixed at Confederation to $80,000 a year, together with a per capita allowance of 80c. The subsidy was increased after Whitney came into power to $240,000, together with a 'per capita based on the popula- tion of the last decennial census. At the close of the Ross admin- istration, the finances were in a 10W state, an'dpadlditional support -had to be denied the Toronto Uni- versity, for want of funds. Since the Whitney Government came in, additional grants were given, and there are a greater number bf students in attendance than in any other university in the world. The annual revenue now is about a million dollars less than the expenditure. Total revenue in 1904 Was $4,464,000. In 1910 it was nearly nin-e millions. Dr. Jamieson was the only can~ didate nominated by the Conserâ€" vatives, and Mr. Calder was sent forth as the standard bearer of the Liberals. The nomination meeting on Monday afternoon last, was at- tended by a full house both sides of politics being wells rep- resented. THE NOMINATIONS DURHAM. 0NT.. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7,1911. January 15t, [913 for $1.00. The taxation of improvements. and the business tax as now fixed by law did not suit Mr. Calder, and "he thought something should be done to improve them. The in- come tax, school text books, the bi-lingual question, and other matters Were touched on, but there was nothing sufficiently substan- tial against the present Govern-- ment, or the present member. zie obiected to the inequalit} of the. cost of power from the hydro- electric system, Welland, Haulil- n and places near the Falls could '5»: their power much cheaper Durham or Owen Sound. He thought there was no legis- lation of the Government so se- verely criticised as their Educa- tional policy. Too many teachers are unqualified, and he thought Dr. Pyne was incompetent to dis- charge the duties of his office. He thought too much attention was given to higher education and not (fir-augh to the elementary work. The Temiscamin-g Railway, he said. was opposed by the Conser- vatives, but this Dr. Jamieson de- nied afterwards. The Dr., he said, forgot to tell of the increased expenditure, and that the Succession Duties Act was brought in by the previous Gov- ernment. He thought the taxa- tion of railways had been increas- ed from $30 to $90 per mile. inâ€" stead o-f $60, as stated by his opponent. But even $90 was was far too low, compared with tax rates in the United States. Mr. Howell said taxation on railways should be increased, and he ine- li-eved so too. Mr. Calder said he was pleased at seeing so many present, and pleased at the moderate tone of Dr. Jamieson’s speech. He thong-ht the reason for calling an early el- ection was because of the land- slide in the recent Dominion elec- tion. The time, he thought, was unseasonable. I He referred at some length to Fthe Hydro-electric question, and showed that Ontario, having no coal, was provided with the best water powers in the world, and cheap power would soon be with- in the reach of all users. Only the users of hydro-electric power had to pay for it. 'It was not sold direct to users, but to municipaliâ€" ties, and if over-charges were made the Commission fixed the rates. He referred to the Prison Re- form Institution lately established at Guelph, and a number of other matters of present political in- terest. themselves thought it was not a paying institution, and wished for discontinuance. The Normal and now there are 1900 students in teaining," the highest number under the old government being 1400. The prices of school books have been reduced from $1.15 to 49c. on the readers. True, the Government paid for the plates, which cost $9000, but the old Government paid $14,000 for plat-es used in the former series. The bi-lingual schools, be said. was a legacy left by the former Government, and they existed not by law, but by custom. Bishop Fallon, of London, was their greatest «opponent. Dr. Merch- ant’s report had not yet been re- ceived, but he assured the elect- ors that English would be the language of the province.
