REETING AT MORELL,
The Liberal Conservatives of King’s County opened the campa‘gn at Morell last evening by a rousing and enthusiastic meeting, which was adlressed by A. C. Macdonald, E-q., and Hon. Senator Fer-
} guson.
Mr. Macdonald pointed to the claims the Government had on the farmers of Canada for the manner in which they
developed the cheese and dairy industries
| and decreased the taxation.
Senator Fe:gusou made atelling speech which was rece ved?with round after round ofapplause, He pointed to the manly and straightforward position of the Govern ment on the trade, Manitoba school aud branch railway questions as compared with the vacillating position of the Oppos ion.
Parties who were present at the Liberal meeting of last week estimate that there were four times as many at the Conserv- ative meeting of last night. The ,tide of public opinion appears to be _ setting strongly in favor of the Liberal-Conserv- ative candidate, Mr. Macdonald, who will carry the riding by a large majority.
A WARNING
IN THE
PAST,
To prove that we were being slowly but surely swamped by our jug-handled fiscal arrangements with the United Mates prior to 1878, it is only necessary to state that our purchases of manufac tured goods from that country had risen from $47,000,006 to $51,000,000 in the amé period, and that we had imported from them in one year nearly $18,000,000 f agricultural produce, which, on account f its cbeapnesa, simply displaced so uch of the products of our own Cana- ian farms.
While trade with the United States was ‘xpanding so enormously, that with the nother country was contracting. In 1875 ur total imports from Great Britaia mounted to $68,492,000, while in 1878 hey had decreased to $37,131,000, a hrinkage of $31,061,000.
In consequence of the unsatisfactory
mndition of our manufacturing indus- ries the imports of raw materials de- reased, scores of factories were idle, or ir running only on short time; and thou ands of our most skilled arusans were forced to emigrate to the United States n search of the employment they were unable to obtain in Canada.
Among our merchants a similar state f affairs obtained. The business failures threnghout the Dominion, which in L874 were $66 in number and $7,996,765 in ‘mount, gradually rose under the master- y inertia of Sir Richard Cartwright, antil in 1879 (for the eftect of which year his policy was undoubtedly responsible), they numbered 1,902 and aggregated the eno. mous sum of $29,347,937.
As if to accentuate the folly of refusing to alter our tarift so as meet the exigen- cies of the times and protect our own people from the unfair competition of foreigner’, our national expenditure in- creased from $19,174,647 in 1873 to $24,- {55,381 in 1879, while each succeeding year seemed to show a larger deficit than its predecessor.
Wouid not history repeat itself were the Liberals again to accede te power? Do not the utterances of Messrs. Laurier, Cartwright, et al. show that they have the same visionary ideas on tariff mutters, which if put in force would again rain this country ?

‘TWAS A DEADLY TORNADO.
Late advices show that the deadly tor- nado which swept through north-eastern Kansas and a portion of south-eastern Nebraska on Sunday afternoon and night caused at least eighteen deaths end the injury of ascore ef persons and incal- culable damage. Many who escaped in- stant death are maimed for life, and in numerous instances the injuries are ex- pected to result fatally. The storm cov- ered a large scope of country. Chaos pre- vails throughcut the st icken districts, and in the confusion it 1s even yet Impos- sible to obtain a complete Jist of the dead and injured atthe various places. The properiy losses caunot be estimated with any degree of accuracy. There is no doubt, however, that the storm is the most appalling disaster that has been i- flicted upon northeastern Kansas for years, At Frankfort sixty buildings were destroyed, and 200 people rendered home- less.

VERY INTERESTING FIGURES!
{ The savings of our people have greatly increased since 1878. The deposits in our chartered banks in 1878 were $76,856,253, and in January, 1896, they had increased | to $190,493,856. | The great increase in the amount of life
insurance in force is also an indication of i thrift. In 1878 the total amount of life | insurance was $84,751,937, while in 1895 | it bad increased to the enormous sum of | $319,781,939. | The capital invested in industrial estab \lishments iu 1881 was $164,957,423; in 1891, $354,620,756. The number of em- ployes also increased proportionately, ‘while the wages paid out nearly doubled, ‘ being in 1891 $100,663,650.
The total value of output of our indus- trial establishments in 1891 was $476,258,- 886. There were then 776 establishments, whose output was over $106,000 annually. Omitting establishments whose annual out- put was under $2,000, the output of all others was $444,003,694 in 1891; while by far the greatest increase between 1881 and 1891 was by establishments whose output was valued at over $50,000 annually.
Our fereign trade forms but a small proportion of our commerce. The best customers for both farmer and manutact- urer are the Canadian people themselves, who consume by far the greater portion of all the country produces. Notwithstandinz our great interprovincial trade and the large quantity of goods we manufacture, which replaces the foreign product, our imports have increased from $93,081,787 in 1873 to $123,474,940 in 1894, and our exports have increased from $79,323,667 to $117,524,949 in the same period. In making these comparisons we must not lose sight of the fact of the great depre- ciation in values of al! commodities within the periods named, eo thatall these figures @ :lating to 1894 would -really be greatly iacreased if values were equal to those in effect in 1878. A matter in this counection which wil] be of interest to us is the fact that, according to recent reports, our ex- ports for the first quarter of this year to Great Britain increased uinsty per cent.
The tonnage of sea-going and iualand vessels arriving at and departing from Canadian ports, exclusive of coasting ves—- sels, has increased in round numbers from twelve millions of tons in 1878 io twenty millions of tons in 1894. But the greateat indication of the importance of our inter- provincial trade is found in the traffic of our railways. In 1878 our railways car- ried nearly eight million tons of freight, aod earned $20,500,000. In 1894 the ton- nage was three times greater, and the earnings nearly $50,000,000, while the working expenses, number of passengers carried, and miles of road in operation more than doubl-d in the same period.
The increase in cur postal facilities also emphasizes the importance of the increase in our commerce since 1873. In that year the jetters and postal cards mailed were 50,445,000 pieces, while in 1894 the
number had increas.d to 132,097,260 pieces. F.re ineurance in fore? in 1878 was
$409.99,701, and in 1894 $836,067,202. lo the latter amount should be added the insurance carried by masy large Couc ris in mutual companies which make no re- turn to the Government.
In 1881 we imported and maunfactured $401,287,672 worth of iwoerchandizs, and in 1891 $589,544,010 worth, showing an increased consumption in 1891 over 1881 of $188,256,338. In 189 our own maou- factured products, which we consumed, exceeded our imports in the proportion of four to one.
It will be seen by these figures whether the protective principle Las occasioned great public and private injury, etc., all of which evila must continue to grow in in- tensity as long as the present taritf system remains in force. The policy which has brought about the beneficial results which have been indicated is to be changed we are told to free trade or a revenue tariff, or com- mercial union, as the case may be, but neither of these policies can be brought about without great disaster to the coun-
try.
