The object of this calculation is to show that the present Gov- ernment. by the tariff of 1879 is grinding down the people of the Island. If Mr. Beli could establish this he imagines he would make a strong point. The fact is his figures are entirely wrong, as I will show in a moment.

THE BELFAST SPERCH OF LORD RANDOLPH CHURCHILL CRITICISED BY THE IRISH LEADERS,

In a recent interview Mr. Parnell said he did not attach serious political importance te Lord Randolph Churchill’s speech at Belfast. His visit to Ulster was likely to end in smoke. It was not generally known that the proportion of Catholics to Protes- iants in Ulster was 49 to 51. Churchill was a most contemptible politician. He would have take either side, just as suited his purposes at the moment. He was vir- tually on the National side and against

to the extent of about $350,000. He, how- ever, not being desirous to give a fair state- ment, drops the value of the free goods from his average and estimates on dutiable goods alone!

It is by this stupid attempt to mislead the public that he expects to make the Government unpopular.

Now let us’ apply a similar test to the imports of 1878—the last year the Mc- Kenzie Government was in power. That year our total imports, according to Mr. Bell’s estimate, should have been about $2,800,000. The percentage of duty col- iected on dutiable goods entered at Island ports that year was 25 per cent, which would give a revenue of $700,000 Let ua add our other payments for that year to this amount and we would find. that in 1878, according to Mr. Boell’s ‘‘average approximate estimates,” wo paid into the Dominion Treasury four or five hundred thousand dollars more than we received ! I think this is sufficient to show how utterly absurd his calculatiors are; and further,

upon anything so unreliable as ‘‘avorage approximate estimates’—which, by the way is, I think, a new phrase coined especially by Mr. Bell for the eccasion.

I would also call Mr. Bell’s attention to the great mistake he made when dealing with the Railway Accounts. He states that the sum of $103,000 placed in the

militant orations may be summed up in one word “talk.” The orangemen do not intend to fight. The last orange demonstration in Ulster proved this. As soon a8 a few orangemen were pricked with bayonets by a handful of policemen all bolted. Churchill was no more violent than was to be expected. Mr. Sexton, in an interview, said the speech rendered Churchill impotent to affect English opinion Churchill’s position on the Irish question was one of bad faith. Everybody knew that if the elections had made Salisbury independent of the orange members, Caurchill would now be engaged on 4 Home Rule bill. Churchill now appealed to orangemen under the delusion that they would put the tories in power by winning British sympathy. His speech show- ed ignoramse of Irish politics as well as of human nature. Within living memory men had been hanged for language not ‘more traitorous than Churchilli’s. Within Mr. Sexton’s own knowledge mem- bers of the league had been sent to prison for life for using such language. Churchill was a political outlaw. It was impossible for him to speak for the mature leaders of aparty. T. P. O'Connor, in an interview a few days ago, eaid : Churchill failed to do his best for the Nationalists and is now do- ing his best against them. With folly arising from a shallow mind and absolute illiteracy he attacks a most sacred Catholic

to the length of the life of a lecomotive, to show that only 165 per cenv. of the whole amount should be charged to current ex- penses. Now, if he had taken the trouble to examine into the details, he would have seen that he was making a gross blunder. There is not a locomotive or a car included in that amount, and I challenge Mr. Bell to prove the contrary. up of the wages of the men, such as drivers, firemen, cleaners, and others em- ployed about the engines; also conductors, baggagemen, brakemen about the cars, as wellgjas cost of fuel, repairs, etc., together with other items incident to the every day running of the trains, and consequently properly chargeable to current expenses, Mr. Bell should have known this. But as it appears he had not the necessary in- formation, he might have enquired of any of the boys about the work-shoys who wou d, no doubt, have gladly enlightened him on the subject.

I agree with Mr. Bell that Canada can now borrow money at 34 per cent. This,

Mr. Healy said he believed Churchili’s speeches would excite the blood of the Liberais and benefit the Nationalists. ‘* It isan attempt,” he continued, “ to drag six- teenth century feuds into the political arena of to-day. The story of Charchill’s rela- tions with Parnellites is bosh, I never conversed with him longer than five minutes at atime in my life,’ Mr. O'Brien said : “ Churchill is serving ue so hugely that I ‘almost think he is revenging himself on the Orangemen who threatened to spoil his meetings at Liverpool a few months ago.”
