W’BRIDE’S PROFLIGACY AND SPOLIATION. In the course of a long editorial upon the evil policies of the Two-Man government generally the Victoria Times says it is but fair to state that the members of the government—other than Premier McBride—were not consulted as to the nature of the deal the latter made with the Pacific Great Eastern. Not two members of the cabinet were consulted before the contracts were signed by the premier and his aide. Yet the forty Tory members sat silently and complacently in their seats and put the seal of their approval to this monstrous transaction at the crack of the party whip. And many of these men will be nominated—and perhaps elected—to support Pre- mier McBride in his career of profligacy and spoliation. The wealth and credit of the province are nothing to Premier McBride so‘long as he can retain the reins of power to further the in- terests of his ‘‘friends.” ROYALTY’S VISIT TO PRINCE RUPERT. }of the mainland.

Free Lands for Settlers—None for Speculators. We emphatically condemn the McBride government for its con- nivance at the evasion of the land laws by persons, syndicates and| ccrporations, who have been al- lowed to obtain millions of acres of the choicest accessible public} jands, which are held without use and to the detriment of the prov-) ince as a whole. | We hold that agricultural land} should be disposed of only on) such conditions as will ensure its continuous use and occupa- tion, Free homesteads to actual set- ulers.
