He told of how Mr. Doherty had gone over- seas and interested prominent British pnbiic men in the subject, and it is possible that his activity in this direction may have had some et'1'ect. but while Mr. Drnry men- tioned that Mr. Dohert_v's proposed propar4anda was criticized in the Le:i;~:1atur(- as an improper interfer- enee in British politics, he did not add that this ctiticisni proved to be entirely justified, for it drew from -.`.lr. Lloyd George hintsett` such 11 rebuke as had never `before `been ad- ministered to El Canadian Minister 01' the Crown. It is plain, there- fore, that as far as the British tovernment was conce-med, -.\Ir. Do- hc-rt_\*'s visit was ili judged, and was calculated to do harm rather than good.

The ordinary expenditures have nearly doubled and the debt ot` the Province has more than doubled. The Drury Government claims that much of this increased debt and ex- penditures was the result 01` 11nder~ tal by the previous 3.rovernment. but the thousands OE dollars paid to 1E1\V}'(`,l`S and cqtuntissions for work that should have nheen done by the tui1ristet's theinsclves cannot be cl1a1'gecl to the previous govermuont. The public accounts show that the Dru::`_v Gorernnlcnt has levied direct taxation of $5,850,000 upon the counties ot` Ontario by reason ot` the Biggs` hi.:l1wa_v scheme. This means a tax of nearly one dollar on every acre of cleared land in Ontario. The nuinber or civil servants in the Province have been nearly douibled since 1919. .\l1t0ln()`hi1( S have been purchased -by the score for ministers and their assistants. Many who sttpaported the U.l-`.0. in 1919 have been badly disappointed and are now anxious to see a. staple govern- ment in power again. It is generally conceded that the `Conser\'ati\'e party will have the largest follow- ing, if not a clear majority, after the election. .\lan_V who have had liberal leanings in the past are sup- porting: the Conser\'ati\'es at this velcction because they want to see :1 afrain.
