Quires candidates for school trustees
to file their names with the county
clerk to be placed upon the ballot. It
was explained that this entailed a
hardship upon candidates in districts
100 or more miles from the county

will be filed with the clerk OF the

was passed unanimously.

CONTRAST IN CONDITIONS
1t is interesting 10 note the contrast be-
tween the conditions given TO the Canadian
Pacific in 1851 and those now proposed for
the Grand Trunk Pacific.
In the case of the Canadian Pacific. the
railway IS the property Of the company
which was chartered and subsidized to build
IT. the Dominion Will own one-half Of the
Grand Trunk Pacific and Will be part pro-
prietor OF the other half.
The government built and presented two
costly sections TO the Canadian Pacific; the
Grand Trunk. from Winnipeg to Nioncton.
will remain the property OF the Dominion.
The Dominion gave the Canadian Pacific a
monopoly Vi traffic west Of Lake Superior,
by prohibiting the building of other lines
into The territory; the Grand Trunk must
take its chances with all other competitors.
The Canadian Pacific has absolute control
OF It's transportation charges west OF Lake
superior: such charges in the case of the
Government. Owing to provisions OF its
