CARTWRIGHT S CRITICISM AND COLBY'S RE- PLY--GENERAL MIDDLETON ADMITS THE WHOLE BUSINESS—RIDEAI HALI STA- rISTICS.,

Moat of this week has been devoted to Budget Speech, and of the tariff alterations announced by the Minister of Finance. The Opposition have indulged in their annual blue-ruin rig maroles, comparing the miserable condition

the Giscussion of the

ot Canada with the prosperity of the ad joining Republic, and insisting that our on'y hope of salvation lies in closer com- mercial relations with the United States, and the United States vnly. After Sir Richard Cartwright, Mr. Charlton was the principal Opposition speaker. He made & very Dy Speer h, lamented the deplor- able stat which the N. P. had reduced Canada, and contrasted it with the progress

United States. Lt to remark that Mr Charlton is more than suspected of anneXxa- tion proucliv At any rate, during the MacKenzie sdministration, recognizing the depression then existing, he | strongly urged upon Mr. McKenzie the adoption of a& protective policy inconsistency between Mr. Charlton in 1871 and 1890. But inconsistency pervades the whule party to which he bel hey denounce protection as the CAUSE ra e ills which they deciare Can- ada is suffering from, and in the same breath t ey point to the prosperity of the United States, a co intry with a protective tariff double that of the Dominion. The the Government side have taken their parts well. Though not deny Ing that th ngs might be better in some quar ters, yet they maintain that, on the whole, Canada is prospering and the position of ber farmers, in many respects, superior to that of their American brethren.

and ished that Ontario farms than what they Mr met Sir Richard Sir Richard’s friend, Mr. Mowatt’s He read from these statis- that the last seven years there has been a steady increase in farm values, farm buildings, farming imple- ments, k, &c. Mr. Colby chal- he nee i any man in the H suse or out of it toa State of the Union uniform, steady and gradual increase of farm values as shown by Untario. He had himself prepared from of Ontario and the United States, a statement showing the average values of cereals per acre during the past seven years. Inthe United States it was $9 44 per acre; in the distressed Province of Ontario, $15 78 per acre. In corn the value per in the United States was $9 32; in Ontario $18.90. In barley, United States value $12 67, against Ontario $14.98. Oats was $8.08 United States, as gainst $12.88 in Ontario. Rye $7.15 United States, against $9.97 Ontario. He then referred, in corrvboration of his ngures, toanarticle from the Canadian Journal of Commerce, of which the follow- ing is an extract: ** The average value of farm products in Ontario has been com- pared with those of the chief agricultural States of the Union by an Ottawa official statistician, greatly to the advantage of On- tarin, The returns for the six years, 1882- 87, published ny the Department of Agri- culture at Washington, are compared with those issued by the Bureau of lidestries at Toronto, and the question to be solved was, what have ten acres in each of the eicht chief crops of wheat, barley, oats, corn, rye, buckwheat, potatoes and hay yielded in money value? The answer is, in On- tario $8,640; in New York $7,474; in Ohio $6,457, and so on till we get to Iowa, with a return of $4,958. The average production of wheat in Ontario was two bushels acre more than in Michigan, three bushels more than in New York and Kansas, five bushels more than in Lilinois and Wisconsin, and six bushels more than in Missouri. The Ontario farmer with 80 scres In the above crops would, at the end of the six years, have received more than the New York farmer by $1,166 ; the Ohio armer by $2,183; Michigan by $2,200;

Mr. Colby then proceeded to show that sll the older States of the Union—the Nor- thern and Eastern States—are in « much inferior condition to Ontarie. No later than Last January, 1890, the Commissioner ot Agricultural and Manufacturing interests ia the State of Vermont, under instructions from published a circular in which it was stated that ‘* good farms with fair buildings and maple sugar orchards can be purchased from $3 to $5 per acre; others with better buildings, and near railway or village, can be bought from $5 to $10 an None of these lands are far from a ready market, and all are adapted to dairy purposes rhese lands are in the Connec-

ticut valley, inthe best counties in Ver- mont. Our farmers de not want to go nto partnership with the farmers of Vermont. ‘The effect of an intimate relation

with the United States, of being upon even terms with them, would-be to bring down prices of our own coarse grains to the corn siand ard, and Not oaly the coarse

tne

grains, but even the products of animals that are fed upon coarse grains. Our prices would be brought down to the cotn

standard of the United States, as against the barley standard of Canada. Theirs is the greatest agricultural country in the world to-day ; there is hardly any lim ¢ to their production, and their prices would control our prices and we could not help ourselves. Our prices are better than their prices and wil! continue to be better, provided we continue those methods we have adopted in recent years to keep those prices up Mr. Colby continued, Free Trade between Canada and the United States in all agricultural products would be the worst possible thing that could happen Canadian farmers. The farmers of New Hampshire are no better off than those of Vermont and the Commisaioner of the State of New Hampshire has also issued an invitation to farmers to come into the State and buy farms which are for sale. Farm ing land in New York State has decreased <0 per cent. in value in 15 years, and prices of New York farm produce are quot. €u 48 lower thau ever befure known, and many agricultural localities are decreasing tn population. The New York Times states that the farms in the State are mortgaged

for over $700,000,000 and further shows that the greater portion of the money ob- tained on mortgages has not been expended on farm improvements, but to the farmers to live. In the most prosperous of the States the amounts of farm mortgages

855,884.

Mr. Peter White (Renfrew), Dr. Fer- guson of Welland, Mr. Adam Brown, Mr. Hesson, Mr. McKeen, Gen. Laurie, Col. O'Brien, Mr. Smith (Ontario), Mr. Kenny (Halifax), and Mr. Porter have been the other speakers on the Government side thus far. Thursday night, the House ad- journed until Tuesday, when the debate will be resumed, and, if possible, brought to a conclusion. A notable remark was that made by Mr. Watson, an Opposition member from Manitoba, who said he would not follow the line of conduct pursued by his colleagues from Ontario in decrying their province and depreciating their farm lands. He wished it to be understood that Man it ba to-day was in a most flourishing condition—the best country in the world, possessing the greatest natural advantages for the attraction of immigrants,

The parliamentary committee to enquire into the connection of General Middleton with the disappearance of a valuable lot of urs belonging to cne Bremner, a half- breed, during the Northwest rebellion of 1885, held another session a few days ago. (‘he General, whose memory seems to have wonderfully improved in the last fortnight, made a statement in which he practically acknowledged the whole business. He had ordered the furs to contiscated, and directed that some of them should be dis- distributed among the ofticers as mementoes of the rebellion, as, if he had not done this, the men would have got the furs anyway. lf the furs were put on the steamer, direct- ed to him, it was without his knowledge; but he had received some furs which he supposed had been put up by his brother- otiicers and sent to him out of compliment. He had disposed of these furs, or such as he did net want, to Devlin, the Otiawa fur- rier. Hayter Reed, the Assistant Indian Commissioner, had a better memory than the General. He said the furs were con- tiseated by order of Gen. Middleton, who had ordered a quantity packed up for himself. Reed had _ selected sume f himself, and taken. them,

be

ior but afterwards, doubting the propriety of the transaction, sent them back. The original order for the distribution of the furs he had got back from the Battleford (Juartermaster and destroyed, substituting enuthertherefor, The reason forthis wasthat the original order contained an expression of General Middleton’s that the appropriation of the furs should be kept a secret. The General denied that he had ever enjoined secrecy. The Committee, after hearing this evidence, went into secret session. rhus, it will be seen that the charges pre- ferred against the gallant general, and which he so indignantly denied at first, have been substantiated, and the most dis- graceful actions proved against him. It is understood that the Government will be called upos to pony up some $4,500 com- pensation to Bremner, and this is only the tirst of a long string of claims that will be pre- ferred. I am very well acquainted with MacDonald the Battleford man, who pre- ferred these charges and gave evidence. He has much more in reserve, and tells lots of stories which are far from creditable to sume of the blue bloods who figured in the North West campaign.

The Rykert matter is still sub judice, and Charley, as he is familiarly known, takes his seat every day with the most complete indifference to the accusations against him,

The Rideau Hall expenses have again been considered, but nothing definite ar- rived at. The following statement of the Governor General’s Secretary may be in- teresting :—

‘* During the winter of 1888-9, 850 invi‘a- tions to dinner were extended, whilst 1,700 ganding invitations to Saturday afternoun skating and tobagganing parties were issued.

** For the present season the numbers were not yet complete, but up te March 12th the foliowing invitations had been sent out: For skating and tobagganing, 1,750 ; first con- cert, 380 ; second concert, 380; first small dinner, 400 ; second smail dinner, 400; first parliamentary dinner, 80; second | parliamen- tary dinner, $80; other invitations to dinner 488.

‘*An ordinary entertainment, Capt. Col- ville continued, requires 150 tambiers, 300 sherry glass: s, 500 ciaret, 600 champagne, 300 ice plates, 30 decanters for each sherry, port and claret, and 1,200 cups and saucers. Ow- ing to the climate, and the fact that glasses and china were frequeatly carried from the house through the frosty air toa hot room, breakages were comparatively numerou: .”

Opposition is commencing to materialize against Mr. Charlton’s Sabbath Observance Bill and a number of petitions have been presented against it.

The revenue of the Dominion for the nine months ended Slst March was $29,- 117,997; expenditure, same period, $22,- 764,212; excess of revenue, $6,353,795. The revenue, so far this year, is some $1,200,- 000 in excess of the same period last year, while the expenditure is about $1,000,000 less. The total net debt of the Dominion at the end of March was $234,637,261, showing a decrease of $1,599,603 as com- pared with the net debt at the end of Feb- ruary.

The death of Mr. Perley was a great sur- prise to the majority of people. He was one of Ottawa's most enterprising citizens, yet extraordinarily quiet and unobtrusive. [t is stated that in the four sessions he sat in Parliament he spoke but four times. His funeral was a very large one, and evidenced the high respect in which he was held. There are a number of aspirants for the vacant seat, and they are a'l among the Conservatives. The Grits and Equal Righters seem to recognize that they have no chance.

To Mr. Davies, Sir Hector Langevin re- plied that a survey and report were made upon Belle Creek Harbor and Breakwater in 1888. The report states that, to obtain eight feet of water, would require an ex- penditure of $7,500.

Mr. Perry wishes to know whether the Minister of Public Works has given in- structions to repair the Miminigash Break- water, and if so, is the work now going on.

The weather this week has been wretch- ed. To-day it is freezing stiffly, and

behind last year. Great preparations are being made for extensive building opera- tious this summer. A very handsome business block is to be erected on Sparks Street. Ottawa is growing rapidly.

There is still a great deal of work to be

done and, alihough they talk of getting through by first of May, I don’t see how they are going todo it. The Finance Min- ister has been beseiged by cepulations ever since the Budget Speech, tiuding fault with the proposed changes or asking others, and his hands are full. Every item of the changes will be fought by the Opposition, and when it comes to talking they have the material to do it.

April 10. AFTERNOON SESSION,

Mr. Peters presented a bill to incorpor- ate Mark Wright & Company (Limited. )

The House then went “into Committee (Mr. McLellan in the chair) for the purpose of further considering the Bill to amend the Domestic Animals Act After some time the bill was reported agreed to with- out amendment.

The House then went into Committee of the Whole (Mr. Underhay in the chair) to further consider the Medical Bill. After prvgress was reported, —

Mr. J. R. McLean asked the Commis- sioner of Public Works to bring down all correspondence in connection with the opening of a new road at Naufrage, also wheu it was the intention of the Govern- ment to complete said road,

Hon. Mr. Bentley said the correspon- dence asked for would be brought down. He could not say exactly when the road would be opened, but the work would be pushed forward with all possible despatch. Whatever delay there was in the opening was occasioned by the people of the neigh- borhood amongst whom there was a differ- ence of opinion as to the location of the road,

House adjourned.

tore Big Robbery.

Last night the store of Thorne Bros., on Lower Spring Road, was entered by _ bur- glars, and a cash bex, centaming about £1,000, was stolen therefrom. The store was closed about 10.10, and the cash box containing the above sum, which was made up chiefly of notes and receipts, besides $600 in cash, was placed away safely in the desk in the shop. This morning, Mr. 8. G. Thorne, when about opening the shop, discovered it unlocked and _ opened. Proceeding to where the money was placed, he discovered that the cash-box was gone, and also that the front hall door was open. It will be remembered that les May the same house was entered by thieves. and about $500 stolen from the safe. As there is a strong suspicionas towho theguilty party is, it would be very convenient for him if he would make restitution, other- wise he may abide with the consequence.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. The Stanley.

Sir,—The Stanley only got in yesterday at three o’clock p. m., and is unable to make more than one round trip in two days. Many people say that the present arrangement is not so convenient as when the mails came by Georgetown. Of course it will be said that the bulk of the freight and passenger traffic is destined for the City; but when the steamer cannot make the passage in less than nine hours, why aot allow her to run to Georgetown, when the trip only takes three hours, and where a round trip can be made each day? And besides the difference in time, the amount of ice at present between Cariboo and Char- lottetown is very great; and experienced passengers say that it is a crying shame to ill-use 4 valuable vessel like the Stanley by forcing her on a hard route when an easy and more expeditious one can be found elsewhere. I do not believe the Minister of Marine can be aware of the ill-usage the Stanley is getting. She should not be made to pound through miles of ice for tie pur- pose of saving a few people a few dollars of freight. If it is absolutely necessary to do what these traders and business men want, the Department had better arrange to pay the railway for the increased freight, and send the steamer to Georgetown until the ice clears away, and thereby save injuries

that may cost thousands of dollars to repair. OBSERVER. April 11.

An Immense Business.

The immense volume of business done by Manchester, Robertson & Allison, will be suggested by the extent of their spring im- portations, an account of which is fully set forth in THe ExaMINEr’s advertising columns this evening. The list includes 3,598 packages of European, American and Canadian goods divided as follows: Cana- dian manutacture, 2,460 packages; British and continental, 794; United States 341. The great proportion of Canadian goods indicates the immense strides this country is making in manufacturing industry. Eleven or twelve thousand packages are Maritime Province manufacture. Aj] buy- ers of dry goods will be interested in this firm’s advertisement, for the list includes every requirite in that line for city or coun- try customers.

——__—_-+@-e—

—We have always contended that the route for the mails should be that on which daily return trips could be made with the greatest certainty. This should, in our opinion, be the route. irrespective of al! sectional, or corporation or personal inter- ests. Therefore, we shall agree with our correspondent ‘‘Observer,” that a mistake was made in the too early transfer of the Stanley from Georgetown to Charlottetown, so soon as it shall have been proved that the Stanley could, in the foggy and stormy weather of the past few days, have made daily return trips if she had been left ou the Georgetown route. We may }assume, in the meantime, that Capt. Fin- ‘layson has not allowed the vessel to be in- | jured on account of the change. The cap ‘tain is, we believe, a better judga as to _what will injure the vessel than even the most experienced passcnger.
