THEORY AND PRACTICE. Tr is be

t a few days since the Mail and

speculating

upon the cour-* which the new grit gov eromeat would purane, presuming, of

cjarse, that they would practice the doc-

triue they preached. Here is an extract

from the article n question:

“Mr. Mulock made a speech in Parlia ment on June 24 of last year, in which he declared that we have too many cabinet ministers, and that their salaries were too high. His view. then was that as ia the United States there are but seven members

of the cabinet, there should be vo more at Ottawa. Mr. McMullen dealt with ‘the qaestion of saiaries. He admitted that

$7,000 a year might have been necessary twenty years ago, but he added, ‘ $4,000 should be considered an atmple allowance now; $4,000 would procure to-day more of the necessaries of life, or the ordinary supplies required by a member the cabinet, then $7,000 twenty years ago.’ ‘I believe the Ministers of the Crown can well afford to submit to a reduction to meet the demands of the people of this couvtry for a general reductica all round.’ The Liberal policy, then, is seven minis ters at $4,00@ each, instead of one at $8,000, ten at $7,006 and three at $5,(00.”

Bat the Mail and Empire should know better than to take grit speeches seriously. That grit speakers do not meanall they say has been so often proved that each utter ance of theirs must be taken withalarge pro- portion of sa't. The speech of Mr. Mulock, has made The

THE GOVERNMENT’S TRADE POLICY.

Tue New York Tribune, a paper which gave Mr. Laurier a most enthusiastic sup- port during the receni general election, is the intention of the new Government to make any important changes in the tariff. The Tribune says :

out with a declaration that it is not

“ The one great issne of the campaign after the Manitoba schools, was tariif re form. The Liberals pledged themselves, if not to actual and iiimediate Free Trade, to the nearest possible approach thereto. Mr. Laurier has, however, promptly de- cided to shelve that whole question inde- finitely, by submitting 1t to a commission, to be appointed, of course, by himself. This disposition of it will cause no sur-

prise to ihe readers of the Tribune, who hare aiready been informed of the two great inflaences at work to compel him to take

such a course. One of these influences is the banks of Canada, which have told Mr. Laurier plainly that the tariff must not be disturbed under penalty not only of loss of their support, but also of such serious embarrassment as they could, by open hostility, cause the government. The other is the Frenchmen of Quebec, upon whom the new government ix absoluiely dependent for iis mejority, and who are protectionists to the core, of the most un- compromising kind. What can a free trade minister do when he has a protec- tionist majority at his back ?”

“The fact is the issue of provincial rights was that on which the Liberals wo: . It, and it alone, brought the Frenc! Catholics of Quebec, and thousands of in- dependent voters, and even Conservative-, all over the Dominion, to Mr. Laurier’s

support. Sointent were the people on that that they paid little heed to other is sues. Now they see that while they

have saved and vindicated provincial rights, they have put protection in theore:- ic jeopardy. Accordingly, they are rally- ing with might and main in support cf the latter cause, and are actually organiz- ing to prevent their own government from executing ita own programme That they will be successful is not susceptible of serious doubt. They are already succes-- fal. Mr. Laurier’s Government will not bring in free trade or anything like it.”

It seems hard to believe that Mr. Laar- ier, in the face of his deciarat: would put character

yn that he th he z-d a+ slavery and robbery, will

tions are that ciere wil! be no material loterferense with the trade policy, and there ix likely to be mach more in the N-w York grit organ’s as-erticn than ct

first sight appears. The relegation to the rear of Sir Kichard Cartwright, the propo- Sai to refer the tarift to a commission, and other political etraws indicate the direction

of the trade wind.

This organization worked assiduously during the recent campaign. Thousands of cop es of a cir cu'ar favoring the establishment of a Canadian republic were distributed over the Province of Quebec. The FPatrie and other Rouge jourfals daily published ar- ticles attacking England and British insti- tutions, and holding up Sir Charles Tup- per as the emissary of Great Britain to crush the French Canadians. The associ- ation is still at work. The Patrie to-night says: “The Canadian Independence Club, established a few mouths ago in Montrea’, is working meessantly. The object of the elab is to carry into execution Mercier’s idea of a French republic on the banks of the Si. Lawrence.

WHAT FREE SILVER MEANS,

(St. John Sun.)

Frobably every newspaper in Canada has been asked by its readers to explain the silver question, and to point out what would be the result of free coinage. It is easy euough to explain the meaning of free coinage at the ratio of sixteen to one, but not so easy to forecast the reauilt of euch a policy. On the last point opinions differ.

If the platform of the Chicago conven- tion were adopted by the nation, every man who had silver in any form could

take it to the mint and get it coined into money. The government would take this

silver, whether it were in the bar or in silver spoons, and would give the owner ell the coined money tbat it wonld make. It would be provided that the silver dol- lars and smalier coins would have the same value in gold that they have now. That is to say, any man could get a wheel- barrow load of silver spoons coined into gold dollars such as are now in circula- tion, ard five of these would be worth one five dollar gold piece of the present weight. This means that sixteen ounces of silver coined into dollars would be worth one ounce of gold. And as coinage would be free and unlimited, sixteen ounces of silver in any form would be worth an ouace of gold. So far all is plain sailing.

At the present prices it takes about 30 ounces of silver bars tobuy an ounce

market for Jess than seventy cents per ounce. Gold is worth tweu:y dollars per ounce. Of course if the silver miuer could now take silver to the mint and get it coined intothe kind of silver dollars that are current he would never sell it for seventy cents per ounce. There is silver enough in an ounce to make a dellar piece and a twenty-five cent piece, and he would have these two coins made. Bat at present the government buys the bar silver at the current price and makes the profit out of the coinage. At present also the govern- ment coinage is limited in quantity. And

so it happens that silver spoons are sid for jess than their weight in silver dol- lars.

But now we come to conjecture and op-

; inion. Under the proposed system all the

silver in the market would be worth as much as its weight in silvercoin, and that would be one sixteenth as much as its weight in gold. As silver in other coun- tries can only be exchanged for one thir- teenth of its weight iu gold the people in other coustries who have silver would

| ship it to the United States to be sold or

coined. People in the United States who have gold would ship it away to buy thir:y times its weight in silver,

People in the United States who had payments to make would pay ia gold if they cou'd, while their bills at home would be paid in silver. Before long all the coin ia the United States would be silver and all the gold would be sent away to coun- tries which would not take silver at the United States valuation.

A five dollar piece seut to England or Canada would buy twice as much goods as five silver dollars. A cargo of wheat ship- ped to England would bring double the money in silver dollars as in gold coin. It would probably come about that gold would only be a_ nominal money in the United States and silver would be the real standard. Silver would be mined and smelted with as little labor as now. It would be procured from abroad in exchange for the same commodi- tiee as now. It would seem that a man who now exchanges a bushel of wheat for an ounce of silver would still do so. The difference would be that whereas he now considers tbat the wheat or the silver is worth seventy cents, he would then claim that either was worth one dollar and forty cents. He would have cheap money or dear produce, but so far as the barter was concerned he would come out about the same as before.

But if he owed money borrowed under the old system he would gain. He would pay with an ounce of silver or a bushel of wheat for two ounces, or two bushels bought years ago. The mortgage of a thousand dollars won!d become a mort- gxge of five hundred dollars. The debtor’s gan would be the creditor’s loss. This explains why the financial centres, the banks and the creditor states are opposed to free silver, while the mortgaged com- munities are all in its favor. We would also expect to see the pensioners,the savings bank depositors and al] persons who have fixed incomes opposing the degradation of

money.
