JAS. D. TAYL Bookbinder

R, nov26—eod ORTH SIDE QUEEN SQUARE.

loceupied just now, we are compelled to ‘hold over the lengthy letter of our Ottawa ‘correspondent. We can, however, supply the following notes :

Mr. Perry has obtained an order of the House for a statement showing the number of Government wharves, piers and break- waters repaired in P. E. Island during the year 1889, and the amount expended on each of said structures.

Sir John Thompson’s bill respecting pro- missory notes and bills of exchange was advanced several stages during the week. In reply to Mr. Blake, Sir John Mac- donald, stated that there had been corres- pondence, but of a limited character, be- tween the Governments of Canada and Newfoundland, which correspondence is still going on. Being imperfect, it would not be advisable to bring it down. There had been no recent correspondence between the Canadian and Imperial Governments respecting relations between Canada and Jamaica. Mr. Blake has been very punc- tual in his place of late, and seems to be more interested in the proceedings of the House. It is not improhable that he will be heard of at some length before, proroga- tion.

Mr. Adam Brown secured the second reading of his bill for the further preven- tion of cruelty to animals, after a hard

kinds of House Furnishings at! fight, by a majerity of nine. This measure,

which is aimed at abolishing the cruel practice of shooting live pigeons from traps, was before the House last session when it miscarried. It has got to run the gauntlet of committee, but will probably pass with amendment. There isa good deal of old maid fussiness about Mr. Brown, whose gait resembles that of a person treading on egg shells, but he has extensive sympathy and from high quarters, in his scheme, and after the second reading was declared he looked as proud as a cat in a pepper box.

The motion of Mr. George Taylor for the second reading uf his bill to prohibit the importation and migration of foreigners and aliens under contract or agreement to perform labor in Canada, caused a discus- sion which occupied tie whole of Monday evening’s session. He stated the bill to be similar to that passed by the Congress o! the United States and which has been so interpreted as to deal harshly and cruelly with numbers of Canadians. As a firm believer in the N. P., which created a home market for the products of the farm, he contended that Canadian workmen should be protected from competition of foreign labor. There was no reason why Canadians should be excluded from the labor market of the United States and yet we should give United States laborers free ingress to our market, which should be con- trolled by and kept for Canadian workmen. Mr. Taylor quoted a number of cases of hardship caused by the operation of the United States law.

Sir John Macdonald did not think that the United States law was directed against Canadians, but rather again. + Europeans and, perhaps, Chinese. He believed that the United States authorities were inclined to exempt Canada from the operation of the law, but they had no power to do so—it could only be done by Congress.

Sir John Thompson ridiculed the conten- tion of some Opposition members that the Government should have remonstrated with the United States authorities. Canada could not be exampted from its operation unless all British subjects were equally ex- empted. He deprecated the adoption of harsh or irritating measures against the Americans, and he considered also that Mr. Taylor’s bill would have an injurious effect upon immigration. After a number of members had expressed their opinions, the debate was adjourned.

On Friday evening, when Mr. Clarke Wallace moved the third reading of the Orange Bill, Mr. Curran moved in amend- ment ‘‘ that it be not read a third time, but that it be amended to provide that this Association shall not hold public proces- sions in any province where party proces- sions acts are now or hereafter may be en- acted.” Mr. Curran supported his motion in a very moderate speech. He recogniz- ed that the bill was going to pass, and de- clared that his amendment was in the in- terest of peace. He recalled the unhappy occurrences which had attended processions of the order in Montreal, where blood had been spilled and life lost. The conse- quence was that the Quebec legislature had passed a law prohibiting the parade of the streets to celebrate any political event, or having reference to religious or other distinctions existing between Her Majesty’s subjects. His amendment proposed that the Orangemen should not hold public pro- cessions in any province where such a pro- hibitory law existed. He read a letter re- ceived from Rev. Father Dowd, a venerable Montreal priest, enjoying the respect of all classes and creeds, who expressed his be- lief that if the bill passed, bloodshed would most certainly follow. He gave the pro- meters of the Orange bill and the mem- bers of the order credit for the best inten- tions, and their objects were laudable if we if could disassociate them from other associ- ations in the public minds,

Mr. Wallace characterized the amend- ment as absurd, and said he would preter losing the bill altogether than to have such a clause incorporated in it.

Further debate was adjourned, and the rest of the evening was spent in committee of supply.

Mr. Davies has asked for copies of all petitions to the Minister of Railways since lst January, 1889, from employes of the I. C. R. workshops at Moncton, and the P. E. I. railway, asking for an increase of wages; also for a copy of all answers to the same from the Railway Department or any official thereof.

Mr. Perry enquires whether tie contract for carrying mails, ice-boat hands, passen- gers, &c., to the board ice at Cape Traverse is let by tender. Whois the contractor / How much per trip? If not let by tender, who is doing the work and at how much.

Mr, Perry has asked for a return showing

wages paid to each diver and to each labor- er; also whole amount expended to Decem- ber, 1889.

Sir John Thompson intends introducing a Billto transfer to Provincial Govern- ments the rights to the possessions of rivers and bays. This measure will be received with much satisfaction and will remove a cause of considerable friction between the Provinces and the Dominion.

The Bill to extend the charter of the

Summerside Bank to July 1, 1891, has passed the Banking and Commercial Com- mittee, and its passage is assured. Mr. Skinner, of St. John, has given notice of a motion to the effect that the Govern- ment should enter into negotiations with the Governments of the several British possess- ions in America and the West India Islands with a view to reciprocity in natural pro- ducts and manufactures.
