ask for funds for the promoton of Laurier’s return to Parliament with a beral majority of the commoaus ty sup-

port him. The late Hon. Honore Mercier

| came with them and introduced them, after

woich Mr. Tarte assumed the spokesman- ship of the party and cooly asked us for $50,000 for the purpose of purchasing “Le Canadian” newspaper, although it had suspended its daily edition ‘and had = a weekly circulation of lesa that 5,000. 1 was asked if | conld raise the necessary money, after Mr. Morrison had been asked 118 OLinIOn as tu the propriety of support-

y Laurier and had given his asseut hereto. Mv reply was that if Laurer vill come out squarely und advocate inde-

ndavce with a view to political union

i

with the United States the money can be raised and not otherwise. Mr. Ta t+ was realy to pledge Mr. Laurier such a noley after his election, but not befor; and expressed the opinion that it would be unwise for the ‘national continental union league’ to organize prior to the general election in Canada or prior to Laurier’s return as premier. Mr. Mercier was then eugstioned if the province of Quebec could be carried for independence with @ view to political union. with the United States, and he replied “emphatically yes,” although bis state- ment embarrassed Mr. Tarte very much. Che result of the Ming was that the frienas of “continental union” in this city agreed toc mnsider the proposition aod re- portto Mr. Mercier. On the following morning, November 7th, [was instructed to write to Mr. Mercier that he would have all the support he needed to carry the province of Quebec, that is,as leader of the party in the parliament of Quebec for Ind-pendenee, but not one cent for Tarte and Laurier. Mr. Morrison was very angry because I was instrumental in secur- ing the adontion of this policy and some unpleasant correspondence passed bet en ue because [ opposed the fact that “Le Canadien” was only a weekly newspaper with a circulation of under 5,000. You are at liberty to use these facts, and 1 would suggest that you subpoena Jobn Morrison, of Toronto, who was at ene time president of the British American assur- ance company. If you desire to do so you can take my evidence by commission and if necessary I will give you other parties n Cauada who will confirm the facts as stated above.

' (The Belleville Intelligencer.)

If further evidence were wanting of the mischief done to trade and commerce geverally, by delay and the contradictory statements that are constantly being made by members of the Administration as to tariff changes, we have it in the utterances of Hon. L. H. Davies, Minister of Marine and Fisheries, who the other day, when | speaking in Charlottetown, P. E. I, upon tue question of the tariff, delivered him self as follows ;

“We will not at one fell swoop change the millionare manufacturer into a pauper. While free trade is the goal of the Liberal party, it is impossible to carry it out. We intend having @ tariff for revenue only. At the next session the Goverument will be prepared to submit a tariff bill which will carry out the main lines laid down at the great convention in 1893. This, while votdoing violence to the manufacturers, will relieve the people from the iniqui- tous ‘ariff system under which they are now suffering.” :

Gen‘rous and humane is this Mr. Davies. The Government, he says, “will not at one fell swoop change the million- aire macufacturer into a psuper.” If you do not intend to make a pauper of the manufacturers at “one fell swoop,” how many “swoops” do you, Mr. Davies, intend to make before pauperizing and sending those gentlemen to the poor house? The manufacturer has received his warn- ing. He is to be pauperized by a slow process, but not in “ove fell swoop.” It is # question whether a lingering financial death is any better than to be “ swooped ” ont of existence at once. One thing the importer and manufacturer may thank the Minister for, and that is his declaration that while “we,” the Government, “ in- tend having a tariff for revenue only,” this i< to be done without “doing violence to the manufacturers.” They arenot to do “violence to the manufacturer.” They are to have a “revenne tariff only,” bat not yoing, in “one fell swoop,” to change the * millionaire manufacturer ioto a pauper !” How do these contradictory statements hang together? A “revenue tariff only” wou'd not require many “swoops” ‘to change the “millionaire” into a “pauper.” One would judge that Mr. Davies was un- der the tmpression that he was talking to men who were ignorant of the effect of sach a tariff upon the manufacturing inter- ests of the country. Perhips he was. We doubt it, as will be made manifest in the near future, whenever the people have an Opportunity of speaking upon the eubject at the polls.
