Then, sir, smother mistake was made, on irreparable mistake, and one for which I hare always blamed the Gov- ernment of that day. Instead of com- pelling the C. P. R. to build from Montreal to St. John upon purely Cona- dian ooil---that should have been built entirely on Catalina soil, every inch of it-they allowed the C. P. R. to send their .nsilwny across American territory through the State of Maine. Sir, in doing this there was another mistake made, sad it was for this reason, amongst others, W. in." to build this rsilwsy, to have . railway absolutely of our on, upon Csnsdisn territory,” (indium soil. It is true it has been salted in the House of Commons, "What is the use of this new rulwayt You have ocean eommuniention over the C. P. R. tad over American territory t" Yea, and this is one of the very reason' why I want this new railway. Our re- htionl with our American neighbors are good It the present time and friendly, and, for my own part, I make no hear tation in uying that I an 1n admirer of the American people. I admire' their energy, I admire their enterprise and many qualities, but I have learned in the short eight years that I had been in offioe that if you want to keep the best possible relations, with our neigh- bors the beat way is to be independent of them at every point. (Loud and prolonged cheers.) It is possible to-duy that a train of merchnndise leaving Montreal for St. John, N. B., my be; stopped at the frontier of the State of 1 Maine. You will tell me it is not pro-) beble. It is not probable at this mo-' ment, but there was s. moment eight ycsra ago when it was intensely pro- bable. There was a moment eight - ago when the President of that day, Mr. Cleveland, threatened to take sway from us the bonding privilege. Well, sir, that might have taken place, end if it had taken plsce, what position would we have been in t It was to pre- rent s possibility of such an occurrence that we wanted to take every predation l ageinst it, and to assert not only to the World, but -ialty to our American neighbors, that we’ve Independent and trse in our communications at both ends of the sentient.

The fact is the scheme of Mr. Borden lasted just the life of a rose-tBoom" one morning and the following morning it was no more. When the scheme came up again for de- hate in Parliament Mr. Borden had an- other scheme. And what was it t It was simply to extend the Tntertso1onul from Montreal to the Georgian Bay try means of the purchase of the Canals Atlantic. That was on the 5th of April, 1904. On the Mth. of May Mr. Borden had another policy to propose to the Canadian people, and here it is t--- "The House is of the opinion that in- stead of ratifying the proposed agree- ment it will be more in the public in- terest that the Dominion should assume the whole obligation necessary for ex- tending across the continent the present Government system of railways, thereby completing the continental railway from the Atlantic to the Pacifle, entirely own- ed and under the control of the people of Canada." I hear a voice saying "Hurrah t." That voice speaks prematurely, I am sure, as I shall show him by-and-bye by the words of Sir Charles Tupper, by the words of Sir John Macdomud, by the words of s11 the leaders of the Conserve/- tive party, that never was a wilder scheme proposed to the attention of the people of Crunch. (Applause.) Cost of the Rsilwny. Sir, therefore, the lane is wen denu- ed between Mr. Borden and myself, be- tween the Government and the Oppoei- tion. We have a. when. and they have a scheme. We have n scheme to build a. railway, they have another to build the same nilway. Therefore, let on ex- amine it. Let us see, first of all, what would be the cost of each of these schemes to the Canadian people. The scheme of the Government, which we have to present to you, in that the reed from Moncton to Winnipeg shall be built by the Government, the nection across the prairies by the G. T. P. The sec- - -- ' A, "nun.-- um Mn EMU Jul-law "Gr --- "V - tion 'tCi, Moncton to Winnipeg will cost sixty-four millions of dollars, and, add- ing the interest for seven years during construction, it will cost seventy-one millions of dollars. These are our cel- cuhtione, not based upon conjecture, not based upon imagination, but bued upon the calculation of the man whom I consider, and you will admit to be, the most expert of all men to-day to make such a oan1ution---Mr. Collingwood Sohreiber, the Deputy Minister of Rail- wnye end Canals. Mr. Bohreiberhs estl- mate of the cost of this road u seventy- one millions of dollars, including inter- est. When we hove built the railway we dull lease it to the Grand Trunk Pacitie Company, who she-ll operate it, end for that they agree to pay as e rent to be represented by three per cent. up on the cost of construction. That in to say, if our calculations are correct, as I am sure they are, when we have built the railway and it has cost us seventy- one millions of dollars, the G. T. P. will iuridmiththeoeaasdrrunirmamtrtsmto Gliiiiariililiiiii' macaw-u E} -iiriiy" way of reivt three per cent. upon that sum of money. The Western Section. On the other side of the line, from Winnipeg to Port Simpson, where the road is to be built by the G. T. P. Com. pany, and on the mountain oection, which extends from the prairie to Port Simpson, about 480 miles, we shall gum" antes the bonds of the company. Mind you, we shall not pay the money, but we shall guarantee-the bonds. It is true that he who guarantees donating pays, and so far I want to present the wh- jest to you fairly. But I have thie to say: at the present time our engage- ment u simply to guarantee and not to pay. And we have every reason to believe, end we feel sure, that in the prairie eectlon from Wim nipeg to the mountains we ehell never be celled upon to pay a doiUr, because that portion of the road will pay from the etert. In the mountains elm we have reason to believe that we ehall never be called upon to pay e doller either of interest Or of capital, because there also we exact ouch . development of the country, th of agrita1lture and of minerals, that (more in every rm]: to believe that it also will pay from the etert.
