Alluding to .criticism of a light legislative program, he said the less the better, for the people had been legislated to death. He paid tribute to the work of Hon. John S. Martin, and said that no better class of settlers could be obâ€" tained than the Russian Mennonites who came to Waterloo last year. He suggested erection of temporary }homen to shelter such families on prrival, a matter which farmers of the district were not always able to take care of. Mr. Weichel praised the action of the government in reâ€" quiring pulp wood from crown lands to be manufactured in this country, and urged coking of domestic coal. it was up to the people of this counâ€" try, he said, to develop their own natural resources. The member pointed with pride to the administration of provincial institutions under Mr. Goldie. In reâ€" sard to the treasurer‘s department he said it would be a very popular thing to drop amusement tax on amâ€" ateur athletics. He urged also legisâ€" lation requiring lights on vehicles, as a matter of: benefit to farmers themselves. In tribute to the career of Sir Adam Beck, Mr. Weichel said: "He was a man in a thousand.

"I want to say," continued Mr. Weichel," that Mr. Scully‘s name was handed in long before we knew here was an election.
