Mr. Geoftrion’s seat goes to Quebec, as a matter of course, for Quebec will surrender none. The Government will appoint Mr. Laflamme to this office, if they think he can carry his constituency; failing with him, there wiil be a-dozen other French. men clamoring for it. Of what use, then, to talk of a “‘portifolio’’ when there is no chair at the Council. Board for an Island representative? The portifolie cannot go to the Island because the Island will have no one in the Government to take a port. folio of any kind. The matter is as simple as AB CU.

merchants and traders find it hard enough to pay the present high tariffrates. If our present revenue tariff is raised into a Pro- tective one, it will mean simply so much extra taxation placed upon our farmersy not to carry on the Government of the country or develop its resources, but to enrich a smal} but influential body of manu- facturers. This /ive issue affects, and will alfect, every man’s pocket on this Island, It will not be squarely met by those who desire to support Sir John A. McDonalds policy. A protective tariff, they kuow’s like separate schools—uupopular in tls Island, and it will be gilded over with such phrases as ** national policy,” mach as the separate school question was attempted to be hid beneath the pregnant policy of ‘** payment for resuits."’ I ask you to be on your guard on this question.
