Representation in the ‘abinet.

SENATOR HOWLAN'S SPEECH.

Some Fallacies Exposed.

In the Senate, a few days ago, the ques- tion vi representation in the Cabmet for British Columbia and Manitoba, came up for discussion. Senator Mclnnis, who opened the debate, in the course of his speech referred to the Island in a manner which did not please Senator Howlan. The following is the otlicial report of Senator Howlan’s speech :—

Hon. Mr. Howrtan—lI do not rise for the purpose of interfering with my hon. friend in advocating that the western por- tion of the Dominion should have represen- tation inthe Cabinet. But Ido rise on this account : that last year comments were made as to the smallness of the import revenue of Prince Edward Island. 1 did hope that the statement I made last year, taken as it was fromthe public reports of the province, should be taken as a tair and legitimate statement of the case. Ishowed last year that the revenue of the province was $911,422.95, instead of $252,600, as the public accounts of Canada show. | clearly we that time gave the items as fol- Jows, and | am only surprised that my hon. friend would not have remembered it, be- cause last year it was a matter of considera- tion before the House :--

REE IE

$911,422.95

A little explanation will be necessary, to those who did®ot hear my explanation on that occasion, to show how this difference between the apparent and the actual revenue of Prince Edward Island is brought about. We know that if we take the returrs of revenve from the Province of Quebec, Quebec and Mon- treal are the first ports of entry coming up the St. Lawrence, and necessarily a large amount of duty is paid at those cities upon goods which afterwards find their way to the western portions of the Dominion, That would account for a great part of the six or eight millions of revenue credited to that province. So it is with Prince Edward Island. When our Island was an inde- pendent province, in 1872, the revenue was far in excess of $242,000, when her revenue tariff was nothing at all like the present tariff. At that time she was credited with all the goods imported from the United States and Great Britain, and the revenue coming from this, in the way of duties, was credited to her as will be seen on reference to the public accounts. Since Confedera- tion the goods brought into the Province are bought in St. John, Toronto, Hamil- ton, Montreal and Quebec, and it neces- sarily follows, on taking up the Public Ac- counts, she does not receive credit for the duties paid on the goods imported by her merchants. What is the fact with respect to British Columbia? It is known that a large portion of the goods imported into that Province come direct from the place of manufacture, and as a consequence are credited in the returns with the amount of revenue derived from them; but even froin the showing of my hon. friend, so far as revenue is concerned, that any portion of this Dominion should be represented in the Government if it pays large amounts of money to the Public Treasury —even by his own showing,the Province of British Coum- bia pays but one-twenty-second part of the revenue of the country, and it would follow from that, that she is not entitled te representation in the Dominion Govern- ment until the Cabinet is composed of 22 members. This is the only fair deduction which can be made from the statement of figures submitted by my hon. friend. I am not here for the purpose of finding any fault with the views and opinions he has advanced, but I do find fault with the fact that I must be continually making this ex- planation every time the question of the representation of British Columbia is raised ‘in this House,and I do hope we have heard the last of it. Prince Edward Island is taunted, when we ask for improvements, not only on the floor of this House, but in the House of Commons, with the smallness of its revenue, and we are told ‘“‘you cost more to the Dominion of Canada than the Dominion gets from you.” Icontend that it is an improper way to look at the ques- tion. It is not"a patriotic view. If Prince Edward Island has any particular r ghts

in her poverty she is not to be held up, as my hon. friend has held her up to-day, to the ridicule of the House.

Hon. Mr. McInnes~ I beg to correct the statement of the hon. gentleman. 1 dic not hold Prince Edward Island to ridicule or belittle her in any way ; but to carry out my train of reasoning I had to give the revenue from imports and exports of the Provines, but I did not for one moment try to belittle her.

Hon. Mr. Howran—I ain very glad to

she is entitled to them as rights, and even |

VOL. 21° NO, LY.

- - ~ a - hear the explanation of the hon. gentlewian, but it is due te tnyself to say that having stated in detail last year the sources from which the revenue of Prince Edward Is- land is derived, and the amount, the hon. geutleman sitting near me should have heard it and remembered it. I want it distinctly understood, so far as Prince Ed- ward Island is concerned, that she con- tributes more to the revenue of Canada than she receives from the public treasury.

Hon. Mr. McInnes—It was most foreign to my thoughts to make any attack on Prince Edward Island, and J leave it to this hon. House if I could make out my case in any other way than that in which I presented it. I had to give the revenue of the different Provinces, the imports and exports, and if Prince Edward Island stand the lowest on the list, Iam only sorry for it. lam sorry that her imports are not larger, and that her exports are not larger, and that she does not contribute more than is stated here in the blue bouk. Hon. Mr. Howian— She does contribute more, Hon. Mr. MeInnes—If we cannot take the otticial report given to us as reliable, and as being a true representvtion of the revenue of the Dominion, on what are we to rely? My hon. friend says that British Columbia is in an entirely different position from Prinee Edward Island. I would remind him that British Columbiais importing larve- ly,direct from Montreal, Toronto, Hainilton and other places, especially since the open- ing of the Northern & Canadian Pacific Railways. She is importing goods upon which the Customs duties were paid in Montreal and Quebec, just in the same pro- portion as they are in Prince Edward Islann. I may say for the benetit of my hon. friend on my left that the reason why British Columbia has im- ported such very large quantities of goods, and pays such an enormous revenue ac- cording to population, is the fact that the great bulk of the population of that pro- vince are male adults, and are actively eugaged in fishing, lumbering, mining and other pursuits that necessitate an enormous consumption ef imported goods of a duti- able character. 1 state this in order to give sume idea to hon. gentlemen who are not acquainted with the industries of that province, how it is we are importing and using such a large amount of goods, and why we pay so much revenue for so small a population. I hope my hon. friend will never again accuse me of being unpatriotic. Hon. Mr. Howtan—-1 hope my hon. friend will not make the statement again that he has made with regard to P. E. Island. Hon. Mr. McInnes—lI would rather not make the statement, still when I find it my duty to do so I shall make it, notwithstand- ing the fact that I am ruffling the feelings of the hon. gentleman. Hon. Mr. Howran — You ruffled then: at all. Hon. Mr. Mclnnes——I was forced to do it, although reluctantly. Hon. Mr. Powrr—I do not think sthat the hon. imember$from Alber oa fis quite right in saying that British Columbia will not be entitled to a member uf the Govern- ment until the Cabinent numbers 22. Hon. Mr. HowLan—1 did not say so. Hon, Mr. Powrer—1 misunderstood the hon. gentleman. Hon. Mr. Howran—l said that if the figures which the hon, member for New Westminster had given the House were worth anything, the result of those figures —the reasoning which he laid down him- self—would be that. I did not give it as my opinion.

At it Again.

The London Times of the 7th inst. pub- lishes another instalment of its ‘* Parnell- ism and Orime” articles. Opposite its eader page it presents a fac-simile of the tenth page of the Trish World, of New York, of February 16, 1884, and also the greater portion of Patrick Ford's address, published in the same issue. The publica- tions are accompanied by an explanatory article, describing the various funds men- tioned, and the fate of the men connected therewith. In an editorial on the subject the Times says :—‘* The whole conspiracy, whether carried on by mealy-mouthed gentlemen who sit at dinner tables, or by friends who organize murder, is one and in- divisible. It is paid out of the same purse, worked by the same men, directed to the same ends, and is spread by one universal hatred of England, and a determination to bring about, if possible, a complete separa- tion between England and _ Ireland. Whether the money goes to support Glad- stonians in Parliament or to equip desper- adoes for the committal of outrages in English towns is a mere matter of tactics. Whenever we find the constitutional agita- tors with the mask laid aside, as in the case of Mr. Davitt at Bodyke, we find that their language, sentiments and aims are identical with those of the ruftians by whose support they live and whom they in Parliament pre- tend to be ignorant of.”

‘* The General Assembly of the Presbyter- ian Church in Canada met this evening. Dr. Smith. of Galt, the retiring moderator, preach. ed an appropriate sermon from the text: ‘In | Zion Jet not their hands be black.’ Dr. Burns, _of Halifax, was unanimously elected modera- ! tor and escorted to the chair. He then de- | livered & ‘lengthy and graceful address. On | motion of Dr. Cachrane, a vote of thanks was \tendered to the retiring moderator. The !Queen’s reply to the assembly's address was iread. Also, one from the Governor-General,
