“WHOLE TRUTH.”

NOT THE

Tue Patriot of Tuesday evening contain- ed the tullowing paragraph :

“The Ottawa correspondent of the Scottish American, discussing issue between the twe political parties in Canada, savs: merits of this great question it would ap- pear undoubted that there has been a con- siderable change of opinion among the far- mers dnring the last four or five years. Just as might be expected, manufacturers and mechanics regard the present policy with favor. Some merchants de so like-

wise, buta considerable number of these have, like the farmers, changed their minds,”’

But this was notali. The Scottish

American continued (but the Petriot did not quote!) as follows :

“Tf we take the newspapers as our guide it can searcely be said that at the present time there is likely to be any change of party government. From ocean to ocean there is a feeling, even if things are not just what they might be, or what they ought to be, that perhaps the management of affairs is safe, in the hands of those who have held it than in the hands of persons who would at once begin to overrun every- thing in accordance with the purport cf their speeches. Paradoxical, too, as it may appear, there isa well grounded feel- ing that there is more movement of pro- gressive character in connection with the old policy than would accompany a change of rulers. It is asserted by one party that our debt is large,—too large—and the question for us to settle is, whether j better to have a debt, even a large one,

than no debt, or a very smail one. We cannot have our cake and eat it. If our debt is large, we have large aseets, |

and in mest cases their value will increase. At any 1ate, what would we or could we do without our canals (exclusive of the Tay Canal) and our railways? These

At the afternoon session committee was resumed on the bill amending the Medical Act, with Mr. Prowse in the chair. The section in the bill giving a person the privilege of employing any one he liked as medical attendant provoked considerable discussion, those taking part being Messrs, Farquharson, Rogers (Alberton), i. ( Macdonald, Sinclair, Laird, Gordon, Wise, and Warburton. The section was voted down, however, and as it em- bodied the principle of the bill before the House the promoter declined to proceed further with the measure, and a motion that the Speaker take the chair carried. ee

rhe Appropriation Bill, 1895, was read a seeond and third time and passed;

Hon. Mr. Sinclair submitted the report of the Stock Farm Commissioners.

On motion of Mr. Bell the House went into committee oa the bill respecting the holding of property by married women. Mr. Prowse in the*chair.

Che bill was discussed by Messrs. Bell}. Peters, Farquharson, McKinnon and War-

burton. It was pointed out that the bill was in some respects notin accordance with the petitions ask- ing for it, and the opinion was also expressed that it was

introduced too late in the season to admit of its receiving the consideration a measure of such importance sheuld receive.

In order to test the feeling of the House Mr. Warburton moved that the Speaker take the chair.

Mr. Bell was speaking in defence of the measure when the House took recess, and at the evening session he concluded his remarks,

Then the motion that the Speaker take the chair was put and carried, and the bill was thus “ shelved” for the session.

On motion of Mr. Warburton the Act respecting the registration of deeds, etc., was read a third time and passed.

Hon. M. Peters introduced an Act pecting coroners which was read a first time and ordered to be read a secon I time to-morrow.

Mr. McKinnon presented a bill amending

res-

the Act respecting Georgetown and Com- mon, which was ordered to be read a sec

ond time to-morrow.

Hon. Mr. Peters moved that tne House go into committee to consider the advisa bility of introducing an Act for the pro tection of sheep by imposing a tax on dogs He referred to the importance of the matter in respect to which it was proposed

to legislate, and to the losses that sheep- raisers had been subjected to through the ravages of dogs. There wasalawon the

statute books now, but it was too stringent and was therefore ineffective. Indeed he did not know of a singles instance in which it had been enforced. He was not wedded to any hard and fast law, but would like to hear what the House had to say on the subject.

Hon. Mr. McLean seconded the motion, which carried, and Mr. McWilliams toek the chair in committee.

Mr. Rogers (Alberton) thought that the tax to be effeutive would have to be high, say $10 or $12 en each dog. He thought that the dog upon which tax was paid would be just as ready to worry sheep as the one that had not its tax paid. He pointed out that the present law provided that each dog shall wear a clog weighing seven pounds, and failing te de this the snimal is liableto be killed. If a dog is known to worry sheep he is also liable to a similar fate. Proyision is also made for taking action against the owners of dogs knowa to worry sheep. However, the matter Of protecting sheep from dogs was a most important one, and some effective action should be taken.

Hon. Mr. Peters pointed out that in Charlottetown, under a tax of $1, the number of dogs had greatly decreased. He referred to the difficulty of proving whose dogs worried sheep, and to the fact that it was only in rare instances that a would

man admit that his doz was guilty of attacking sheep. The use of

clogs was rare, and he knew of only a few instances where they were worn.

The resolution was then reported agreed to, and Hon. Mr. Peters submitted a bill in accordance therewith, which was or- dered to be read a second time to-mofrow.

Hon. Mr. Peters introduced an act to facilitate the coilection of amounts due the Commissioner of Crown Lands, which was ordered tobe read a second time to- morrow.

House adjourned until 10 a.m. on Thurs- day.

Tuorspay, April 18.

Mr. Bell presented a petition asking that women be permitted to exercise the privilege of the franchise upon the same terms and couditions as men. The peti- tion was received and read.

Mr. Shaw asked why his question con- cerning carpets furnished Government House had not been answered; also for information concerniug the report of the Commissicner who obtained exhibits for the Chicago Exhibition which has not been tabled as stated.

Mr. Peters replied that the report was submitted last year and that all accounts in connection with the Chicago Exhibition had been paid.

Mr. Shaw referred to the case of Mr. Robertson of Inkerman Farm, who has not vet been paid.

Hon. Mr. Peters replied that the Gov- ernment had never dreamed of paying exhibitors for their exhibits.

Mr Bell asked the Leader of the Govern- ment whether a petition has been received from William A Toombs, Wesley Burns, Thomas Campbell, Jobn Warren and others, praying for telephone extension from Reid’s Mill’s, Tryon, to Bedeque, and if so what action the Government proposes to take in the matter. tition has been received from J J MeDon- ald, P P, James Farmer, John T Murphy, William Deighan and others, praying for

Mr. Godkin asked the Leader of the Government whether the Government re- ceived a petition from the inhabitants of Summerside asking for a grant for the purpose of macadamizing the streets: lead- ing into the town, and if so is it the in'en- tion of the Government to grant the prayer of the petition.

Mr. Peters replied that the Government had recejved a petition, but what the re- sult would be he was at the present moment prepared to say.

Mr. Warburton prese nted the petition of certain members of the Presbytérian Church of Tryon and Bonshaw. The petition was received and read, and a bill

OPENING OF PARLIAMENT.

Full Text of the Governor-General’s Speech.

Ortawa, April 18.

This afternoon at 3 o’clock His Excel- leney the Governor-General proceeded in state to the Chamber of the Senate in the Parliament Building and took his seat upon the throne. The members of the Senate being assembled, His Excellency was pleased to command the attendance of the House of Commons, and that House being present, His Excellency was pleased to open the fifth session of the seventh Parliament of the Dominion of Canada with the following speech :— Honorable Gentlemen of the Senate : Gentlemen of the House of Commons:

It is with much satisfaction that I again have recourse to your advice and assist-

ance in the administration of the affairs of

the Dominion. By the sudden and la- mentable death of the late Right Honor- able Sir John S. D. Thompson, Canada has sustained a great loss.

The deep and heartfelt sympathy of Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen, and the manifestations of sorrow with which the distressing intelligence was read through- out the Empire, as well as the tokens of esteem and respect everywhere paid to the memory of the deceased statesman, have been gratefully appreciated by the people of Canada.

Satisfactory assurances having been re-

ceived from Her Majesty’s Govern- ment respecting the interpretation of certain clauses in the _ treaty

of commerce with France, ratification will be exchanged as soon as tie necessary legislation has been passed.

The recent action of the Imperial Par- liament enabling the various Australian governments to enter into preferential trade relations with other self-governing Colonies of the Empire affords gratifying proof that the suggestions of the Colonial Conference are being favorably entertained by Her Majesty’s Government.

In conformity with a recent judgment of the Lorcs of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, to the effect that the dis- sentient minority of the people of Manj toba have a constitutional right of appeal! to the Governor-General in Council against ceriain passed by the Legislatare of the Province of Manitoba in relation to the subject of educaticn, I have heard in Council the appeal, and my deci- sion thereon has been communicated to the Legislature of the said Province. The papers on the subject will be laid before you.

The depression in trade which has pre- vaiied throughout the world the past few

acis

years has made itself felt in Canada, but fortunately to a lesa degree ‘than in most other

countries. Although that bas net resulted in any volume of decrease of opr foreign trade, yet owing to low prices amd recent reductions in and removal of taxation, it has been followed by a serious decrease

in revenue derived from customs and excis:. In orler to produce an

equilibrium between revenue and expendi- ture for the coming year, it will be neces sary to observe the greatest possible econ- omy in the appropriation for the various branches of public service,

During the period that has elapsed since the last session of Parliament I have had an opportunity of visiting many portions of the Dominion, including the Maritime

Provinces, Manitoba, the North- west Territories and _ British Col- um bia. Throughout the tours

I have been impressed and gratified by the manifestation of an abounding loyalty

and public spirit, and notwith- standing the phase of depression al- ready referred to, I observed every-

where unmistakable signs of that confident hopefulness in the future based on a thorough belief in the greatness of the resources of Canada which is one of the characteristics of her people, and which furnishes a good augury and pledge of further development and progress.

The Government of Newfoundland hay- ing intimated its desire to renew negotia- tions looking to the admission of that

Colory into the Dominion, a sub- committee of my _ advisers have recently met in conference a _ dele- gation from the Island Government

and discussed with them the terms of union. It will bea subject of general congratu lations in the negotiations now pending re- sult in the incorporation of Her Majesty's oldest Colonial possessions into the Cana- dian Confederation,

Measures relating to baokruptey and insolvency and to joint stock companies will be laid before you. You will also be

asked to consider certain amendments to the Insurance Act, to the act respecting Dominion notes, to

the Dominion Act, to the Indian Act, to the Northwest Territories Representation Act, as also a bili respecting the land subsidy of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company.

Gentlemen of the House of Commons

I have directed that the accounts of the past year shali be laid before you. The estimates of the ensuing year will be also presented. They have been framed with every regard to economy compatible with the efficiency of the public service. Honorable Gentlemen of the Senate : Gentlemen of the House of Commons:

I now leave you to the dis- charge of the important duties devolving upon you with earnest

prayer that being guided by the spirit of wisdom and patriotism, your deliberations may, under the Divine blessing, conduce to the unity and well being of Canada. ———_~-<-e —______ Read Paton & Co’s offer in to-day’s is- sue,
