Tue St. John Telegraph poiots out that the trade of Canada must, of necessity, sutfer asaresult ofthe application of the Dingley taritf inthe United Statee. Ft says that “ the intention of the measure is to injuve Canada as much «8 possible, by putting astop to the export of Canadiac good to the United States, but just how far this design will be realized remains to be seen.” Continuing, it refers particularly to the prohibitory lumber duties, expresses the hope that the increased demand in the United States for ,home-grown lumber conseqat nt upon those duties will eventu- ally relieve Canadians of the competition of American deals in the Briti-h markets, ana add-,— “In the meantime it will be wise for ovr people to direct their attention io other markets for our products. So far we have Leen exporting rough lumber a mustentire- tion Of affeirs should always continue. The rough lumber which we exported is worked up into other furms, and fiuished products of various kinds, many ot which could be made here quite aa wel] as ou the other side of the Atlantic. This is a subject which, we have no doubt, has already attracted the attention of our ex- porters, and which will become. more urgent vow that one importent market is virtually closed against us. We have be- come aceustumed to one set of business conditions, and naturally look upon them as Decessary to Our prosperity; but it by no .neans follows that other conditions which will be created under stress of new circumstances will not inure quite as much toour advaatage aa those upon ; which we have been accustomed to rely.” These remarks are fully ia accord with the national policy and national epirit of Canadians. We are not to be put down. We sball rather improve our products as result of the application of the Dingley tariff, and we shall seek other markets for them. The Telegraph’s remarks concern ing lumber products apply with equal force to agricultural products. These must be “worked up” to suit the Home, the British and the European markets; and we must have better for faciities moving them By the way, when shall we see an ocean steamer calling regularly at Charlottetown and at less cost. taking goods out of coli sturage, as well as out:of the ordinary warehonses, for sale inthe British markets. a —<- - RAILWAYS IN AFRICA.
