So that taking it at the lowestpossible value, this industry would still b'e of the very greatest importance in the develop- ment of the Province. OUT OF POLITICS . Discussing the Road Act, Mr. Mac- Kinnon said one result of the opera- tion had been to take the roads out of politics. Formerly it was purely a political act and during an elec- tion, even in mid-winter, they would see men potterlng about the roads making pretence at repairs. There would be nothing of that sort in the future. The money spent would be on the ron.ds,.not upon individuals who would give their support to the Government. MR1 RICHARDS-What about the road masters? , N13. MacKiINNON-The question is all right and so are the road mast- ers. (Laughter.) When appointing road masters they had 'to appoint peo- ple who considered the act operative. There was a Liberal member of the House who would make an excellent road master but what was the use of appointing him when he declared the not unworkable? They had to get men who would give the Act a chance, 'and these were found among the supporters of the Government, and surely no one could find fault with that. AIGRICULTURAL EDUCATION. The honqreble.member proceeded to deal' with agricultural education in the schools, and mentioned that in the psstfe. beginning had been made with school gardens, but they had '-not been given the 'encouragement they deserved and had langulshed and failed. Buthangood deal could 'be done sion this line if ro erl un ment’s policy ,regarding it had not yet been fully developsdfit was in- At this point Mr. MacKlinnon moved the adjournment of the de- bate, which was agreed to. INCORPORATION OF ALBERTON. On the motion of Hon. Charles Dalton a petition from the residents of Alherton for an act to incorpor- ate the town was received, and the bill read s first time. c The- House then adjourned to three o'clock this afternoon. . _i - PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE The House of Assembly resumed yesterday afternoon, Mr. Speaker Wyatt in tho chair.

JOHN, McNEIL, Commis- sioner af Public Works, in resuming the debate on the Address "said he would confine his remarks chiefly to that Dart affecting his own depart- ment. on the ground that when one tried to make his own department a success hc had little time to pay at- tention to any other. When he took over ofbc" hc found the Public Works Department, in a very had way. the bridges, ronds and culverts being in an unsatisfactory cendii-,l0n_' gl; bridges having tumbled into the riv- e"~ 'H1950 F0'luired immediate atten- tion. and they had had to spend a, lot of time and money in getting' them' Whnirefl. The Header of the Opposition had claimed that the late government had built sixteen bridges; but he had travelled the province and failed to find more than thirteen to their credit. Thirteen bridges built in fourteen years, or a little more thun _an average of one bridge Ver year. _The total length of steel -structure put up by the late govern- ment was 'Jll fect against 1,490 of bridges by the present government giving a balance of 499 feet in its favour. The bridges now being erect- ed were larger and stronger and cost more moucy accordingly. The width of the new bridges was 15 feet as against 1.". feet previously, while the Montague bridge was 16 feet with 4 feet of sidwwalks. Reference had been made to the roads and the dif- ficulties in connection with the new act, but he thought there were no dlfllcultics, except that at ‘the outset some people were confused between what was really the act and what its opponents declared it to be. It had he n_,cl _irreri by tho members of the Opilositclon that the roads in their districts were good and had always been good because they had' been pro- perly looked after. When he took over his present office he visited the district in question and at Coleman was informed they were vsry much in need of repairs, so much so that one road had been discarded, one man telling him when he did attempt to use it he had to tie his daughter in the wagon before setting out. That would give _them 'some idea of the rosds“ when he took them over. Re- verting to the bridges, - be stated that in_.addition to the new ones they had replaced a number of BPBDB at considerable cost, and painted all those bridges that had been previous- lv erected. Last ‘year he had got the Provincial Engineer to prepare an es- timate of the new bridges and re- pairs absolutely necerssry, and found that these would cost $222,000. That was a-large amount to have to face at the outset, but nevertheless they immediately set to work and he was glad to say they were making good progress, as the work already accom- plished prnvecl. In conclusion Mr. McNeill referred to the improvements effected in the Public Buildings, the result of the new arrangements being that it now took twenty-five per cent: 'less' in fuel to heat the buildings. In reply to the Hon. Mr. Dalton, MR.'McNEILL said he had .paid a visit to the First District shortly after taking oiiice and 'was not'im- pressed with the condition of the roads' there; but on his second visit some of them were excellent. and the people seemed to be trying to further all due respect to the Leader of the °4k’h,- b the b00g_ The Road Act tance of only 0181117 1111165. 6055115 25 __ ` Opposition,-the question was ans- ;l;a:'E~‘fény satisfaction. and was R cents which is entirely too hiEih.ml\-‘Ii - ., » ""-**'-_- W°f§d #|111 Nl*-led 101' an “nw 'W the grdat improvement on its predeces- "“”t°d th? g°v°"°m°“t “'°“ d Act of fthe Dominion 'I-lbuse of Com- 90,5; fmt that dm not mean that hold of this service also and rianie X mon, _whim had placed the ¢0\\¢l`°1 othér"ro`ad' acts 'had not been g00d_ some of thc grievances comp nne There must have been something good .ihnunry when they returned the pres- ent ` ty to power.

If these accounts showed_the depart- ments hurl been efficiently and econo- mlcally managed, he would give them all praise. On the other hand lf he was not so satisfied hs would continue to criticise the government as freely as he had done the previous administration. So much had been said in praise of the present govern- ment that one wouldimagine that itil predecessor bud not .been entitled to any recognition for the work they had done. He was almost tempted to declare in all fairness they must give some praise to the Liberal Par- ty. Ho thought the Liberals had done n good- deal for the province, and in Fecieral affairs had done a great deal more than the present ad- ministration so far. - THE PREMIER: In what connec- tion? DR. DEWAR thought the late Lib- eral Fcderal government had done a great deal for transportation in pro- viding the Hillsboro Bridge, the Mur- ray Harbor railway, and deepening the rivers. I-Tis point was that they nrust be fair in their criticism and Rive credit. where ,credit was due, and surely the previous government was entitled to some praise. He must say that thc work projected in the car ferry would be greater than all thc accomplishments of the late govern- ment, and that should be the prin- ciple guiding them. Do not deprive their predecessors of their praise then all will fail. It was proper ness, the building of steel bridges, the working of the Road Act, the ur.- nrovemont to thc School Act. ` THE can FERRY » The car ferry would be a great boon to the province and ‘ would be the means oi' wiping oil the yearly defi- cits on the P.
