Commencement Exercises in the Lyceum Last Night.

VALEDICTORY BY MR. PRAUGHT

A Splendid Oration by the Master of the Rolls—Degrees Conferred.

Tue commencement exercises of St. Dunstan’s College were held in the Ly- cenm Jast evening, in the presence of one of the largest audiences that has assem bl- ed within the walls of that place of enter— tainment for a considerable time. The proceedings throughout were at once in— structive and entertainiug, and the aud- lience was most appreciative

On the platform, pesides Dr. Morrison ind the faculty of St. Danstan’s, we notic- ed His Lordship Bishop Macd ynald, His Honor the Lieut.-Gov ernor, Dr. Hodgson, Master of the Rolle, Hon. D. J. Kane, United States’ Consal, Mr. Justice Fitz— gerald, Judge Reddin, of the County Court, D. J. MeLeod, Esq., Superintendent of Ed- Dr. Anderson and Professor Caven, of the Prince of Wales Coliege, and Dr. Conroy.

The College orchestra rendered four se- ns in a spirited manoer, receiving and Glee Club

lec vit repeated applause; ntributed two choruses.

Vocal solos were sung by Mr. A. A. McDonald, and Master P. O’Connell. The latter in response to an encore sung “The Fatal Wedding.”

Mr. A. A. Sinnot’s essay, “Canada and Her Resources” was a capital production. advantages and attractions of anada and her great natural resources were set forth in choice language. We regret that Tas ExaMINeR’s space will not uimit of the publication of the essay in fu

instead of levying a tax, on the products

human raustry. The most noted advocat yy th theory, at the present time is Mr. Henry George, though during the past century it had been advocated by the Physiocrats, and indeed had obtained at that t a far more favorable reception y tl pular mind, than has been accorded .o it during the present century. Like the Socialists, Mr. George starts wit) assumption that vice and misery are ive tothe inequality of wealth, but differs atier in that he attacks wealth e landed property. He very ensibl emarks thal weaith, Waed acquired by personal industry, is by all mean justifiable, since an has a perfect} git to the products of his labor, and consequently @ household property, rail- Vave achinery, aS well @s ail improve ments j istly belong to the person through vhose industry they have been produced, He farth claims that to take any of those products, in whole or in part, even under the guise of state revenues, 18 an

On the other hand, being the product, not of man’s industry, but of God’s creation, should appropriated in whole or in part by » or class of men tothe exclusion of pankind.

a course is because land is the product of nature, rot of man’s industry—that man has no right to claim what he never pro duced; and, consequently, for the use of sueh article. he should be taxed to its full natural va.ue. Such @ course, it is claimed, besides relieving the artisan from the exactions made upon his industry for state purposes—as the national treasury would be sufficiently replenished by taxing land to its full natural value—wiil also prevent all monopolies in landed owner- ship which have obtained In large cities or in large landed estates. As this theory singles out land as the ouly material that is subject to taxation, it has come to come to be known as “The Single Tax Movement.” Like most theories, the one under consideration is not without its special charms for human conceit, and accordingly will be believed because peo- ple wish to believe it. There are not want- ing those who will claim that the reason some people acquire wealth is because others are robbed. This is on & par with the proposition that the accumulated wis— dom of th® wise isonly the outcome of monopolizing the knowledge of the ignor- ant, The promise of a happy State of things by meansof an economic tax, which nobody pays and everybody receives, will not fail to possess transitory attrac— tions; bat after iis claims are impartially weighed, it wil! scarcely be found to turn the balance in favor of sovial ameltiora- tion.

In studying this view of the social problem, the first striking assuinption is, that of all industries in which human en— ergy can be expended, the only one in which material is furnished by nature in- dependently of man s labor, 1s that con- nected with the exclnsive ownership of land. This assumption is erroneous. Human industry never can be developed to such a stage of perfection that i: can be exercised without material which in sume way is gratuitously supplied by nature. To claim, therefore, that land is the sole gift of nature to man’s industry, is wholly to subvert the nature of all intustrial puar- While it is true that the agricul— pursuit of nature

suits. culturist cannot engage in the his calling unless furnished by with land, yet this is not the only industry wherein the supplies of nature are gratui— tously lavished ou the workman. Without implements the mechanic is powerless to exert his Jabors without material from the sources of nature the carpenter is wholly unable to strike even the first blow towards constructing his edifice. The same is true of every other art that human in- genuity can devise. Man is powerless to employ his labor in any of the almost countless departments of human industry unless he appropriate to a greater or less extent some of the resources taken from the material of nature, If, therefore, such materials can be appropriated by man, and at the same time are not the products of his labor, does it not seem illogical to claim that because land is the product of

nature and not of man’s industry, it cannot be appropriated with an equal show of justice? If the contention

be valid that private property is land is opposed to natura: law, simply because it is the product of nature, would there not also fullow the absurd positions that ali ofher forms of real and personal property

The prizes and medals won by the stu- dents were presented by His Honor Lieutenant-Governcr Howlan. As_ the successful students came forward to re- ceive their prizes they were greeted with applause.

. St. Dunstan’s being affiliated with Laval University, the degree of Bachelor of Arts was “onferred. Dr. Morrison, who acted

as Vice-Chancellor, opened the — pro- ceedings in Latin; and Dr. Hodgson, in a Latin speech, presented

James Bernard Praught, Pownal; Austin L. Fraser, Vernon River Bridge; and Augustine A. Macdonald, St. And e vs, and asked that the degree of Bacelor of Arts be conferred on them. The candidates were then veste {in their robes, and, after the formula usual on such occasions, the de rees were conferred.

The Master of the Rolls then held the un- divided attention of the large audience for almost an hour as he discoursed on philos ophy and religion, »ni spoke of the deep- ening strife between agno-ticism and Christianity, predicting the ultimate unity ant triumph of the latter.

At a few minutes to eleven exercises were closed by National Anthem.

The hot weather is making the people of the cities turn. their thoughts towards the summer resorts that are available. It seems a pity that the advantages of the Maritime Provinces are net better advyer- tised. In looking over the principal news papers of Canada, you see advertisemenis of the hotels at Cacouna, Caledonia Springs, Tadonsac, The -Saguenay and scores of other places; but you seldom fee any of the summer resorts in the Maritime Provinces Heretofore the length of time wasted in making in mak- the journey has militated against the suc- cess of hotels in the but under the new time table, to be adopt ed on the 24th June, a principal part of this objection will be removed. It seems to me, however, that the time-table of the Canadian Pacific Railwey does not give the I. C. R.a fair shake, Starting from Ottawa, the capital of the Dominion, if the tourist wishes to take in the historic city of Quebec,—a city which every Cana- dian is interested in—you have to wait over an hour at St. Martin’s Junction and do not arrive in Quebec until 6.30 the next morning. After arriving at Quebec, two or three hours is sufficient to have a look around the city, instead cf the long delay now imposed; and then crossing to Point Levis, you could take the I. C.

are unjust, since there is no kind of pro perty but ite material has been produced by nature independently of any human in- dustry. }

If such a principle wer: adopted and carried to its logical conclusions, it would be wrong, not only to own land, bat also to claim as private property any hoase- hold or personal effects, even though they be of the most trivial import. Such a se quence need but be mentioned to be reject- ed, but its rejection must carry with it tix refutation of the theory that private pro- perty in land is opposed to Nature’s legis- tion,

Not less erratic js the contention that, of all properties, land alone should be tax— ed to the full extent of iis natural value, as distinguished from improvements intro- | duced by man’s industry, that in large cit- ; ies and manufacturing centres, where land values assume fabulons proportions, the state should appropriate a!] such values, being the unearned increment derived from other sources than from any labor expend- eq upon it by its reputed owner. It must here be remembered that, if we attempt to attach a value to Jand, gs divorced from the actual or possible use to be made of it, we shall find ourselves valuing what is simply yaluless, Whie value consists in the ratio between supply and demand its chief factor is the latter of these two elements. Wether the supply of a product be great or small, if it is not in demand, it is for the time without value, Now, there can be no demand for land of which po use can be made, and conse-— quently all euch land possesses no market value. A city lot, for example, on which neither the owner nor any other person 1s permitted to construct a dwelling, a factory or to utilize in any manner, becomes ac tually valuless, and therefore were it tax ed according to its value the amount of taxes derivable from such land would amount to nothing.

But supposing it possessed a value inde- pendently of man’s industry from the theory of nationalization of land it would follow that not even the state has a right to exact a revenue from land values; for land is no more the product of state indns- try than of that of individuals who com prise the state. There would likewixe follow the absurd conclusion that Lo cor poration, be it municipal, provincial, fed eral, or imperial could exact any revenues from land, and much jess could it claim avy remuneration from the various other sources of national wealth.

Here. then, we aye the whole system upon which nations are founded, upon which the very satety of states and peoples must depend, set at naught by the logical sequence of an economic principle which too frequently plays upon the imagination of the people.

These cbservations will serve to show how necessary itis that we shoald have a firm grasp on all those questions so inti- mately connected with the destinies of our country. It is not difficult to see how det- rimental to the aspirations of our country must be any erroneous solution of such problems. As our country is yet in her social infancy, she has not been confront- ed with the more eerious phases of erron— eously applied economics, but it is mainly by devejopipg a healthy education and generously applying il jo the peculiar co. - ditions of our country, thag we may’ hope to avoid the throes of social turmoil which have wrought suci baneful effects or the prosperity of countries older than our own. We behold with amazement the en- mity now existing between labor and cap~ ital, both of which should be as twin brothers in the vanguard of progress; and it is not without anxiety that we behold the gulf of entrangement every day widening between them. Our duty, then as true patriots end worthy sons of Alma Mater is to effect this recon ciliation, and then One very important step shall have been taken on the path of our national prosperity.

In Parliament the past week has been devoted to the passing of the estimates; but a great deal of progress has not been made. Oue of the ost interesting events was the speech of the Hon. Minister of Justice, Sir Charles Hibbert Tupper, on the petition of the Auditor General for an increased expenditure in his department.

ways wii

The Auditor General is an official claim- ing to be independent of the Hxecntive

and as he can only be removed for cause or or motion of Parliament } e arrogates to himself powers that are hard to under- stand when the principles of respon sible governinent§ are taken into sideration. It is generally known tbat the

con-

present Auditor-General is not in sym- pathy with the Government and on more than one oveasion the suspicion has been

aroused that he plays into the hands of the Ltberals. Sir Charles in speaking on the matter, showed clearly how the Audi tor General had exceeded the requirements of the law, and had departed frgm the pre- cedent followed in the Audit Office of Eogland. Sir Charles was in remarkably good form and looked statesman io every way. His fine form and determined looking countenance gave one the idea that he was a man to see that justice be tho’ the Heavens - or the fall. He was ino full dress suit, with Star of St. Michael coat, it being the first time I have him wearing it in the House.

It was surprising to see how the Oppo- sition advocated the diture in the Auditor otice, notwithstanding their oft proclaimed ery that there was too much money paid to officials at Ottawa. It only shows, how ever, that they will never hesitate to spend public money when they think their party will receive an advantage. Sir Charles H. Tupper during his speech showed that hé is jn every way capable of defeuding his ged and slould anything occur Ly which the present leader of the House would be changed, a man {it to fight the Opposition sits by his side.

The Opposition are making a great ado over the Fredericton Bridge matter and have an investigation going on before the Public Accounts Committee. The other day they had a Mr. VanWort, who is Secretary-Treasurer of the Company before them. Mr. VanWort is a lawyer and notwithstanding the efforts of Mr. Davies, Mr. McMullen, Mr. Mulock ani even Sir Richard Cartwright himse!f, to produce incriminating evidence against the Government, nothing was elicited to show that in this matter the Government had acted unduly. It is like all the scandals fhat jhe Opposition bring up. They make » gréat gJo gbaut matiers on hearsay; but when it «ames down to the solid facts that can be supported Ly ewern evidence, nothing can be : the Government.

It is said that investigation will be made into the building of the Sault St. Marie Canal; but doubtless the strong lieht of sworn evidence wil! destroy the charges of the Opposition as the dissipates the dew upon lea.
