INVESTIGATION
The Tories keep on shouting
that the Liberal investigations
are revealing nothing, but it is
purely a case of whistling to
keep their courage up. The
Songhees Reserve deal showed
that, mot only had the Indians
received shameful treaiment,
but that the government, pre-
sumably in a fit of generority,
gave Joe Matson $75,000 to do
with as he pleased, part of Joe's
pleasure being to hand over
$35,000 of this amount to the
Victoria Colonist and the News-
Advertiser. The Kitsilano deal
revealed the fact that the whole
miserable business had been
carried through with an utter}:
contempt for the law of the
land. In spite of the state.
ment made by the premier that
the people of the province
would never be called upon to
meet the interest unpaid on the
guaranteed railroad bonds, the
records of the house show that
some hundreds of thousands of
dollars interest has already
been paid on P, G. E. bonds.
In reply to Mr. Macdonald’s
question regarding the pay-
ment of $30 per day to Indian
Commissionér Shaw, while that
gentleman at the same time
drew down his sessional in-
demnity, the government stated
that it was a federal commis-
sion, the federal government
paying all expenses and asking
the province to pay a share
afterwards. Though a _ true
reply was not received in the
provincial house, a question at
Ottawa reveals the fact that
the federal government pays
only half of the expenses,
British Columbia paying the
rest. It is therefore perfectly
plain that Mr. Shaw received
at least’ $15 per day from the

 

 

that a provincial inspector of
legal offices received a share
mei

of $4,000 commission on
sale of the Victoria Court
House site, This is no isolated
case, as coming investigations
but was simply the
usual procedure in practically
everything handled by the gov-
ernment. The minds of the
members of the government
and its friends have become so
warped that they really see
nothing wrong in this kind of
thing, in fact it seems to have
been looked upon as the proper
thing to do, just as it has for
years been the custom to look
upon the government payrolls
as the proper feeding ground
for political heelers: Every dis-
trict has bean loaded up with
hosts of paid election agents
under the guise of road fore-
men, etc. In seme districts
affairs had reached the stage’
when the old-time slave-driver
with his whip was not a patch
on the political boss in this
province, The Tory methods
were a little more scientific,
but none the less effective.
Fortunately for the province,
and for Canada, the day of
freedom is at hand, when men
will be able to call their souls
their own.

The price of gasoline, like the
price of copper and every other
commodity, is ruled by the law of
supply and demand. If spuds are
plentiful, they are cheap; if they
are they are dear. For
instance, last summer, a farmer
shipped cabbage to the city mar-
ket and did not receive a cent.
simply because the town was over
stocked with cabbage. Until such
time as the government decides
to fix a minimum price for all
commodities, the law of supply
and demand must rule.
