G, Bushby, the Conserva- been in favor the construction of the elevator at ‘Prince Rupert. He is in line with Hon. 8. F, Tol- mie, of Victoria, who supported the votes for a million three hun- dred thousand dollars for that elevator. He believes it will op- en up the Japan and other Asia- ‘tic marketa to the wheat and the flour of the prairies, He knows that to handle wheat the railway will be compelled to make the line through this country sate for traffic. He knows that the big country between Prince Rupert and Prince George will not grow export grain for three years yet. He knows there will be no Peace River grain shipped to Rupert for three years anyway. Sir Henry Drayton knew these things when he called the Prince ‘Rupert elevator a political eleva- tor. It was the price paid to the Progressive party for its support in the House. In those state- ments only does Mr. Bushby agree with Sir Henry, The Conservative candidate re- fuses to allow the Liberals to tie a lot of their false statements around his neck, He is not and will never be a bling follower of Sir Henry or any other man, Need Better Phone Service -If you elect Geo. G. Bushby on October 29th one of his first ef- forts will be to build up and im- prove the rural telephone system in the Northern Interior, with a Start to be made in the Lakes district, where the present raies and tolls are more of a graft than aservice. The Conservative can- didate received something of a shock upon his recent visit and found the high annual tolls and the high rates for loeal calls, The telephones were originally installed to render a service to the pioneer settlers in recogni. tion of the sacrifices. aceompany- ing pioneering, There was no intention of profit making. The lines were built and then rates were adopted which pro- hibit anything like a general use of the phone. The policy has re- sulted in the defeat of the orig- inal idea and the failure to make|' @ profit or to even pay expenses. The policy must be changed and the rural residents must get a The whole rural telephone sys- on a basis that will make it of the maximum benefit.
