To some of the‘ nolsy ones in the crowd he said that he hopâ€" ed they would be as strong in voting at | the election as they were at the noâ€" | mination. J. E. Bartleman introduced himself as an oldâ€"timer. He said he had been thirty years in the North and he beâ€" lieved that this gave him a keen knowâ€" ledge of the people and their needs. If elected, he said, he was in position to give his full time to the work. "This country has been good to me," he said. "I‘ll say it has," responded voice. The only other time there was a hint of any interruption was when Mr. Barâ€" tleman â€"referred to the Workmen‘s Compensation Act. "We don‘t want ccmpensation; we want decent wages," said a voice, said to come from a younz man employed in a busiress in which the speaker is financially interested. Otherwise Mr. Bartleman received an excellent +hearing throughout. He [ claimed credit for working for the pubâ€" lic interests while in public life in such matters as the Mothers‘ Act, the Workmen‘s Compensation Act, Siliâ€" cosis, etc.â€" If elected he would work, he said, to have injustices in these and other matters eliminated. He claimed that people in Northern towns have to pay more taxes than thaose in the South. He thought allowances for mothers and others on pension should be higher in the North, because living costs, he said were 35 to 40 per cent. higher here. He referred to Hon. (Peter Heenan‘s unfulfilled promises to him to do someâ€" thing about tax readjustments in the North so far as mining towns were conâ€" cerned. Mr. Bartleman also promised to do something to help the settlers get off relief and have a better chance. He gave positive promise to carry the Conservative banner to victory if chosâ€"| en as the candidate and suggested that| Hon. Earl Rowe would also sweep the province.

He mentioned that the one mill subsidy paid municipalities last year would be repeated and called attention to the reduction of licenses on four cylinder automobiles to $2.

"I am going to ask Mr. Rowe to name some of these hot dog stands and school children‘s rooms that have been licensed. If he can do so I will not only eat the hot dogs in the stands, but the stands themselves. If he can‘t name them, and I know he can‘t, he should shut up his silly childish talk. (Continued from Page One) Prior to the Liberal aaministration, said Premicr Hephburn, the Conservaâ€" tive ministers used to ride in private cars on the T. N.

Thousands Crowd Rink to Hear Premier After the announcement of the vote, many considered the proceedings over and left the hall, but those who reâ€" mained ‘were treated to an able and effective address by A. V. Waters, of Cochrane, former member of the Legislature, and candidate this elecâ€" tion for North Cochrane. He gave a lforceful criticism of the Hepburn adâ€" ministration, with a graphic outline of the Conservative policy and platform.‘ He particularly dealt with the C.IL.O. case in Ontario, urging the right of the woerkers to freedom of association, colâ€" lective bargaining, and the cther preroâ€" gatives of labour men. He contrasted the Conservative policy of developing the North with the present governâ€" ment‘s neglect and indifference. Mr. Hornick at once extended his congratulations to the winner and reâ€" affirmed his intention to give full supâ€" port. He said that there were two able and effective Conservative organizations in Kirkland Lake that would be availâ€" able to help elect the candidate chosen. Mr. Leroux thanked his supporters and congratulated Mr. Bartleman, sayâ€" ing that all should now join to assure a victory. _‘_J. P. Bartleman was roundly cheered by his supporters. When quiet was reâ€" stored so that he could be heard, he expressed his appreciation of the honâ€" our given him, and said that he knew that all would work together and they would win the riding, and the proâ€" vince. them in boxes. A. C. White, with four assistants counted the ballots and made unusually good time at it. The result was announced in due course, giving J. P. Bartleman the nomination on the first ballot. A. C. White, of Hoyle, chairman of the credentials committee for the disâ€" trict, explained the plan of balloting. Delegates who had ‘been given ballots as they presented their credentials at the door, then marked their ballots, and filed into another room to deposit Arthur Leroux, who spoke briefly in both English and French, mentioned his municipal experience and his conâ€" nection with labour. He had been askâ€" ed to allow his name to go, before the ccnvention. He criticized theâ€"neglect shown the North by the present govâ€" ernment, and pointed out that instead of this country being a "sink hole" for money from the South, it was a "mine" from which wealth poured to the South. come Tax, and he had suggested preâ€" viously a conference or commission to study the ‘problem, mines, municipaliâ€" ties and government to be represented and arrive at a solution. He reviewed briefly the policy of Hon. Earl Rowe on the labour questionâ€"the right to crganize, freedom of choice of unions, eccllective bargain, the right to strike‘ it necessary, while at the same tlme{ holding to lawful means and keeping law and order. The Workmen‘s Comâ€" pensation Act needed amendments, he believed, and he felt also that allowâ€" ances to mothers should be adjusted in the.â€" North. He criticized the road policy, or lack of policy of the Hepburn goverrment, describing the situation as "three years of bad roads, and three months of detours." He believed the Department of Northern Development should have been maintained in the interests of the North. miners and in other workers, because he was a worker himself and with the {armers.beetusehemaaonotthe himself, and these were the peoâ€" pl with whom he did business and who were his friends, He was pledged to support legislation for a fairer share of the municipalities of the Mines Inâ€" When it was learned that it came unâ€" | dancers with their smo der the jurisdiction of the Provinces | During the intervals whe the Ontario Government â€" immediately | band was not playing, a C got in touch with the government of | in the opposite end of the Quebec, and the harmoniouns coâ€"operaâ€" | into action.

The Minimum Wage Act for Men could not be enforced at once, the Premier pointed out. First it was tried by the Bennett government and was Under the terms of the Industrial Standards Act one employer could not undercut his competitors in the same lima of business by paying starvation wages. If a majority of employers in the same line of business agreed on a‘ wage or a condition of labour an Orâ€" derâ€"inâ€"Council could be pased comâ€" pelling all in the same line to do likeâ€" l Speaking as Minister of Labour, Mr. Hepburn said, "I will put my record up ‘against Rowe‘s." He had supported the Drury government which brought in Workmenr‘s Compensation. He had supported the governments which inâ€" troduced Mothers‘ Allowance, the Minimum Wage for Men and the Old Age Pension. He had always been in, support of advanced labour legislation. _ Referring to the Oshawa strike Mr.: Hepburn said: "I have courage enough to take the hard road. I am not against organized labour. I have no obâ€" jection to labour organizing for the right to collective bargaining but there will be no Lewisism while I am Prime Minister. Mr. Lewis has done more damage to the workers of the United States than the meanest employer has ever done.". 8 In the Corporation Tax office milâ€" lions of dollars had been made for the province without increasing taxaâ€" tiocn, the Prime Minister said. All that rad been done was to properly apply the provisions of the Act. It was charged, he continued, by Mr. Rowe, that he had destroyed Onâ€" tario‘s credit. Since arriving in Timâ€" mins he had been in communication with his office and succeeded in reâ€" newing a treasury bill at an interest rate of 1.5, the lowest in the history of the province. Fall and Winter and the saving and revenue it meant to the province. In the last two years the Succession Duties office had colâ€" {lected $28,000,000. Citing a case, Mr. Hepburn said that court action had resulted in Justice McTague giving the Laidlaw family the right to test the validity of one section of the Succession Duties Act that had not been amended for. eighteen years. Mr. Hepburn saw in it a ruse to delay action. If the Liberal Government went in again the obâ€" structions would be removed because' it was evident that litigation could not be carried on for five more years. However, if~Mr. Rowe was elected with "the same old crowd" things would ‘be different. "We want to go on and collect these monies," the Premier said.

Last year over 800,000 cords of pulp were produced. This year more than a million would be the producâ€" tion. Also expected this year was the production of a million tons of newsâ€" print. By this time next year, it was expected that 50,000 men would be emâ€" ployed. Toâ€"day the yearly revenue was $4,000,000. This ‘time next year it would be $7,000,000. ‘ â€" Mr. Rowe‘s questioning of the govâ€" ernment‘s surplus of $9,300,000 for this year, after it had been audited end certified to by Mr. Brown, who has been Provincial auditor for forty years, was deplored by the Prime Minister. It was sad, he said, that the Conservaâ€" tive leader shouldaeekt.obel!mesuch aa statement.
