‘The Appeal in Eqnity Act, 1883,” wes read a thirdjrime and passed.

At Lp. m. the House adjourned for one hour.

After recess, —

Mr. Speaker took the chair at 4.30 p. m.

Mr. Brrr asked for copies of returns of Bank of P. E. Island, fyled in the office of , the Provicial Secretary, during the last four years.

Mr. SuLLIVAN said that, since Confeder- ation, the Banks are under no obligation to make returns to the Local Government; but if there are any, they will be brought for-' ward Mp. Suutivan in moving the House in| Come f the whole to resume the con- | sidefation of the various Despatches upon the table of the House, said that, upon the’ sul.ject of Wimter Communication, his re-| marks would be brief, as discussion had been | had thereon ppon more than one occasion. | The fmidn Government undertook at our ehtry into Confederation, to maintain. efficiént steam service, and continuous coim-| muniéation with the mainland aud the rail- | way aystem of Canada. Up to the present time, they have failed to carry ont these terms satisfactorily. In 1881, an address of both branches of the Legislature was for- warded to the Governor-General, directing the attention of the Dominion Government | to the nonfulfilment, on their part, of the Terms of Union in this respect, and the Local Government have ever since coni:nu-. ed to urge upon them the necessity of doing | so. In 5 Pree last a deputation visited Ottawa for this purpose. They their thission is, to some extent, before the ' House. They had had several interviews with the Cabinet, who expressed themselves as anxious to fulfil their share of the com- pact, but seemed to be at 4 loss to know in what direction this can be done. The subject is at present receiving their earn: st cousideration. A Committee of the Com- mons has been enquiring as to the best means of overcoming the difficulties of winter communication. They have not yet reported, and until they do so, it is un- hkely that the Dominion Government will take any action. It was expected that the report would be made yesterday. It is the duty of this Province to urge the matter upon the attention of the Dominion Gov- ernment, The belief that continuous com- munication could be obtained was a great inducement to us to ’enter Confederation Previous arrangements in that line had, been very defeciive. The deputation were assured that nothing would be left undone on the part of the Government to satis‘y the Island in this respect. A grant has) been made for the construction of a Branch Railway to Cape Traverse, and they were) assured that the work wiil be commenced this spring, and will be finished in the! autump, The Deputation felt it to be, neither their duty, nor the duty of the! Government, to point out to the Dominion Government the manner in which the Terms of Union, in this respect, should be fulilled. Probably, there is no person on the Island with svflicient experience to justify him in pointing out the best way of maintaining a ferry with the~ mainland. Our duty is to continue to urge upon the General Government the necessity, and their obligation, of fulfilling the Terms of Union.

Mr. Sinciarr said, we have been treated in a way in which we should not have been. Our commerce and trade have suffered in consequence. The agreement with the Do- minion was for passenger and mail service, and if that were regularly kept up, we would be benefitted in other ways. The only attempt made has been the construc- tion of the ‘‘Northern Light.’ Her per- formances have clearly shown the practica- bility of the winter navigation of the Guif. She is too small, however, and not powerful enough in heavy ice, but has done remark- ably well. There should be two steamers on the route. The better way is not to advise the Deminion Government as to the proper mode, but insist upon them carrying out their part of the agreement. The people of British Columbia had no more hold on the Dominion Government than we have, and look at the millions thet are being spent to carry out the agreement with that Province. This year the Dominion Government have neglected their duty more seriously than in any previous year. We might have had regular communication, at least once a week, all winter. The Pro- vincial Government should frame a minute as strong and truthful as possible without exaggeration, and press our claim upon the General Government for compensation for

the loss we have sustained by reason of the non-fulfilment of the Terms of Confedera- ticn in this respect. Let us show them that the people of this Province are alive to their interests, that we have been deprived of our rights which were stipulated when we entered into the treaty of Confederation, and that it is their duty to fulfil those stipulations or compensate us therefor.

Mr. Pause said the question under con-!

such importane that it should not be hastily The more it is talked of here and discussed, the more will the people think about it, and urge upon their repre sentatives to press for their just rights When we entered the Confederation upon specified Terms, each party bound te fulfil its sacred obligations. These I eris did not b come law by the legis] ation cf the Dominion and this Province only,

years this Island was not anxious for Union, and resolutions were adopied to the effect that no Terms could be offered which the

Island would accept—at last, her public men saw that to keep out of the Union was an impossibility, and it became a race between political parties 2s to which would have the inside track. Messrs. Haythorne and Laird went to Ottawa, and negotiated

certain Terms, ana it was upon these,modi-

fied and amended by the subsequent deleya- tion of Messrs. Pope, Haviland and

Howlan, that we were admitted, but the clause guaranteeing efficient steam service was agreed io with Messrs. Haythorne and It had been a question with him whether the gentleman who negotiated the Terms really understood that we were to

have what was guaranteed. At the time there was a good deal of contidence | among public men that this communica- tion could be kept up; but it appears from the text of the clause, that our delegates. were not so very certain, and they so. worded it that, if their hopes failed to obtain uninterrupted communication ‘by navigation, it would be secured in some other way. This communication, to be efficient, must be equal to the wants and requirements of the Province. Upon the exports of the products of our agriculture and fisheries we must depend, to a very large | extent. We have no mines, minerals, nor | extensive forests; and this service, to be | efficient, must take all our surplus prodace | at such times as best suit the farmers, and bring back our imports when required by

the merchants. If our communication were continuous, there would be no such rush

of exports in the fall ag at present; but we | could ship regularly and take advantage of foreign markets. We are now forced to send our produce to market all at one time.

The resuit is that the prices immediately fail. The service is made to include mails and passengers, to show that it should be so

the Mainland, but with the Rail- way system of the Dominion. The inierence is that our communication

was to be as efficient as the system with whih we should be connected. If the people had been told that this clause of the Terms ‘Was not to be literally carried out, is it likely they would have gone into Con- federation?! Isolation had always been our principal difficulty. The Dominion said we will place you in the same position as Nova Scotia and New Branswick, we will give you efficient steam service and con tinuous communication, then your most important objection will be removed. We must insist upon the literal interpretation of these terms. He was surprised to hear the remarks of Mr L. H. Davies in the House of Commons, when he said he would be sorry to adopt the extreme language of some of the resolutions which had been passed at public meetings upon this ques tion. The strongest resolution passed was proposed by Mr. Davies’ political friend, Mr. Alexander Laird, whezein it was been broken. The conduct of prominent like Mr. Davies is retarding the

Let the people unite} and demand a literal fulfilment of the te:ms in the same way as British Columbia did. They succeeded, and the reselt of their demand is the construction of the Pacitic Railway. As a fulfilment of the Terms of Union, the ‘‘ Northern Light” has been

a miserable failure, she has been an injury and not a blessing to this

Province. ens of thousands of dollars worth have been locked t» in Georgetown all winter, and the same in Pictou, the owners depending upon the ‘* Northern Light” to carry the goods over. He could not agree with the recommendation that there should be two steamers. It would certainly be an improvement, but if we make a suggestion, it will be an indication that we are not seeking for the fulfilment of the terms, but for something instead. We have already prepared as strong a min- ute as can be framed, covering the whole ground, and he had heard no condemnation of it by the press. If the Dominion Gey- ernment fai!, the only course left upen is to appeal to the British Government, and he did not believe that the Dominion Govera- ment will take up the matter satisfactorily unless forced by the British Government. We have astrong claim for compensation, and it is impossible to estimate the loss We) have sustained by the negligence of the} Dominion Government. When we entered | Confederation, it was with the understand- | ing that the tariff would not exceed 15 per} cent., andalso that every effort would be! made to secure reciprocity with the United | States. Instead, however, we have not| efficient steam communication, the tariif is| very much higher, and instead of Reci- procity, we have a_ policy, the best suited for the Dominion asa whole, but not calculated to benefit us as much as the other Provinces. Until we have efficient communication, we cannot participate in the blessings conferred by the National Policy. There is nothing to prevent this Island becoming a seat for manufactures as well as the other Provinces. The Lower Provinees are destined to become the manu- facturing centre of the Dominion. He trusted that the Opposition in the House! and in the Press will not make this a party | question, but will Jend their inflnence to} any Government who will insist upon the) literal fuifilment of the Terms of Confeder- | ation. }

Mr, McFaypen said the yuestion is une

Gover nent to suggest a way by which the terms can be fulfiiled. The “Northern Light’ has been a partial success, there isa difference of opinion in this. r spect. He quoted Senator Curvell’s evidence before the Comuinittee of the House of Comunwn: i x- perienced men, who have been on board of her, say she is nota suilable model. The Guvirument should stggest the placing of two large steamers on the route to test the practicability of winter navigation. Both

Compensation for the loss we have sustained in this matter, is cf far more importance than the money we may get for the piers. He would like to hear from the delegates upon this matter, and also about the fishery award, and the reci- procity treaty, and if any absurdities, such as atunnel under the Straits were spoken of. Under all the circumstances, a tunnel from New York to London wou!d not be sc under the cannot get the ‘Terms

Mr. Beer considered that actions speak louder than words, and this is true of the Dominien Government. No matter what their anxiety may be, their actions are totally at variance with their words. There is nothing in the despatches before the House to show that they evinced any anxiety, «nd Sir John’s letter, promised in his telegram, has not yet come to hand. We have. no guarantee that the Cape Traverse Railway will be built this year. He would support a resoluticn to go to the Queen, and ask that, if the Dominion Government are not prepared to carry ont the Terms of Union, we should be granted our liberty. The ‘Northern Light” has been a great benefit, for which we may thank Mr. McKenzie’s Government. She could not run last season as she might, in the face of the instructions received from Ottawa. He trusted that a resolution would be eubmitted, claiming indemnifica- tion for Joss incurred in our traftic on account of the lack of accommodation. The best way is to assert our rights, and call upon the Dominion Government to carry out the terms by tunnel or any other way possible. The Pacitic Railway was caleul- ated to open up the country, which would The cases are dissimilar He moved adjournment of dehate, which was carried.

Mount Meliick Notes.

A lively discussion took place in the Schoolroom here on Thursday evening last, 12th inst., under the auspices of the ** Farmers . Debating Club,” on the all im- portant subject: ‘* Will Creameries and Cheese Factories conduce to the prosperity of the farmers of this Isiand.”’

Thos. Delhanry, Esq , opened the debate in ashort and spirited speech in favor of

Creameries, ably supported by Francis Praught, Es¢ ani oihers. Messrs.

Michael Haley, Joseph Praugh—and others, makis g a goud opposition.

The discussion being one of importance to farmers, was both lengthy and animated. At a late hour the house was divided, majuvity in favor of Cream- eries, the leader in opposition voting with the majority, thus showing that the argu- ments adduced in favor of Creameries and Cheese Factories must have been most conclusive and convincing. The farmers of this section are of opinion that factories of this kind are a great benefit, and shouid be supported.

_—-- A Patent Switcu.—Last evening about five o’clock, a patent switch, the invention of an American gentleman named Cocke, was tested in the Moncton station yard in the pre- sence of trackmaster Trites, Mr. P. 8S. Archi- bald, Mr. Taylor, and other cfiicials and em- ployes, and Mr. Cooke, the patentee. The patent consists of rail fixtures connected with the main line of track in uch a manner as to prevent a train coming from ‘‘sidings” from leaving the rail in case the switch should not be setright. Itis likely that the invention will we further tested on the road, The gen- eral opinien is that the device is a good one, though cumberscme. One objection to it is that it makes the switch hard to tarn end therefore it would be inconvenient where much shunting is done. The invention is in use on the New York Central Railroad. It is patented in 187], 1877 and 1852.— Moncton Times. —~@4> oo
