An Excellent Speech by Senator Prowse.
(Continued. )
In response to that address the Govern- ment of PrinceEdward Island received the
following reply, dated the 16th of April 1881, riialiee x | ge
eS “Orrawa, 16th April, 1881.
“Srr,—I am directed to ackuowiedge your despatch of the 7th instant, enclosing a Joint Address of the Legislative Council and House of Assembly of the Province of Prince Edward Island, in reference to the establishment and Maintenance of steam service for the conveyance of mails and passengers between that @rovince and the mainiand
“T have the honor to be, Sir,
“Your obedient servant,
‘“EDOUARD J. LANGEVIN, ‘* Under Secretary of State.”
The next course followed by the Govern- ment of Prince Edward Island was to cause! a despatch to be sent by the Lieutenant- Governor of that Province, dated the 28th February, 1882, calling the attention of the Dominion Government to the address that had been passed by the Legislature of the Province the previous Session, which was acknowledged on the 8th of March, 1882, in the following words :—
“Orrawa, 8th March, 1882,
“Sin,—I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch, No. 9, of the 28th ult., requesting areply tothe Joint Address of the Legis'ative Council and House of Assembly of Prince Edwerd Island, passed during their last Session, respecting continuous comenaniengon between that Province and the Mainland Pro- vinces of the Dominion. "
“I have the honor to be, Sir, “Your obedient servant, “EDOUARD J. LANGEVIN, “Under Secretary of State.”
Next came on the Slat January, 1883, a minute of the Executive Council, the last clause of which I will read, showing that the Island Government were fully alive to the rights of that Province in the fulfilment of the terms of Unien. Tho last clause is as follows :--
“The Council in Committee feel that the Gov- ernment of Canada are justiy chargeable with a most serious violation ot the termsof Union in this respect ; they desire, once more, ta bring the matier prominenti(berore “Your Wxceliency in Gouacil, 7b tie ew, ~~~ -e that the ensuing Segston of Parliament %, ~ be aliowed to pass without the adoption Gi -<ss° “ive measures for the immediate fulfilment of the terms of Con- federation; they request that they nfay be fur- nished with a reply to the Address of the Council and Assembly herein referred to, as well as to this Minute, in suiticient time to submit the same tothe Legislature of this Province ‘at the ap- proaching session thereof. Shotlld the Dominion Governiueat tai: ‘to Gomply with the just request og this'Province, its Government will be reluc- tantly compelled ‘to lay the grievances com- plained of at the foot of the Tarone, and to appeal tor redress to Her Majesty the Queen, as one of the parties to the Articles of Confederation,” :
During the same year a delegation was sent from the Provinge’to, wait on the Dominion Government and to urge the claims of the Province. After the delegation had re- turned, on the 27th March they caused a telegram to be sent to the Dominion Goy- ernment asking for a reply to their several Addresses and Minutes of Council. The telegram is as follows :—
‘ OHARLOTTETOWN, 27th March, 1883, ‘ To the Secretary of State, Ottawa.
“ Required immediately to lay before the Legis- lature new in session, Dominion Government's answer to Joint Address of Legislature of April, 1881, relative to steam communication with the mainiand, and alsoto Minute of Coungil of Jan- uary last upon the same subject.
“T, HEATH HAVILAND, “Lieutenant Governor.”
To this they received a reply stating that the subject was still under consideration. Now we gained an important step in that communication. We had the assurance given us then for the first time that this matter was under the consideration of the Government. On the 18th April 1884, the Legislature passed a second Address, and I may say that aithough party spirit runs high in the Island, these Addresses were passed unanimously by both political parties in the Legislature. Oi a question of this kind they were united asone man. The answer to this second Address is dated the 24th April, and is as follows ;—
“Orrawa, 24th April, 1884.
“Srr.—I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch No, 8, of the 18th inst., transmitting, in order that the said may be laid before His Excellency the Governor General, a Joint Address trom ihe Legislative Council and House of Assembly ot Prince Edward Island, on
he subject of an efficient steam service for the conveyance of mails aud passengers between the Province and the Mainland of the Dominion, winter and summer, and to state that this matter will receive due cousideration, : “*T have tne honor vo be, Sir, “Your obeuient servant, “G. POWELL, “Under Secretary of State.”
Following that, there was a Minute of Council passed on the 20th February, 1885, which was acknowledged on the 6th March, 1885, and the same expression is used, that it will receive due consideration. In the session of 1885 an Address was. passed by the Legislature to Her Majesty the Queen, in which the whole question is so concisely put that I will venture upon the time of the House to read it.
1 may say that that address was support- ed by a delegation from- the Government, and, after having had several interviews with Earl Granville on the question and discussing the question with that able ssatesman and the representative of Canada in London, Sir Charles Tupper, Earl Gran- ville sent a very satisfactory despatch to the Dominion Government, which I will refer to further on, I may say that the import- ance of this communication to Prince Ed- ward Island can scarcely be realized by those who live in other parts of the Do- minion. Agriculture is the leading in- dustry of Prince Edward Isiand, that and the fisheries. We have only from four to six weeks in which to transport our large quantities of agricultural products, after they are harvested—you may almost say that they have to be exported within three weeks. Wehave a limited market for
:
this produce, Nova Scotia being our best customer, and next to that of the United States. We invariably find that, while the produce of the Island is being exported from every harbor in the Province, it gets into the markets about the same time, and the result is that prices immediately drop 25 per cent. or more in a few days. Add to this the inconvenience that tho people suffer for want of suitable vessels for trans- portation, there is such a demand that the freights advance 100’ per cent. Vessels that you can secure in the middle of sum- mer for $200 you cannot get in the fall of the yearfor the same voyage for $400, Looking at it in this way, you can see the great disadvantage.it is to the people of Prince Edward Island to be without com- munication that we were promised at the time of the Union. The result of our pro- duce being forced into the adjoining markets is to immediately demoralize these markets and bring down the prices. ‘Then again, we also suffer in oar imports.. Unlike the retailers in other parts of the Dominion who buy supplies as they them. we have to lay in our stock of imports five or six months in advance. :
This you will readily understand is a very great risk, a great loss to the people of Prince Edward Island, and the people feel it most keenly. Previous to 1879, our loss was very serious indeed, for the cause which I have already stated; but in 1879 a new policy was adopted by the Dominion Government, a policy which I for one, have always believed in—a policy for the Dominion; and that was to encourage home manufactures and provide employment for our own people, a home market for our our own produce and the products of our manufactories. But it has hada contrary effect on the people of Prince Edward Island. Nature has debarred us from the markets of the world for five months of the year by the ice which surrounds Prince Edward Island. The National Policy steps in and prevents us from trading with other parts of the world for the other seven months, and obliges us to trade principally if not entirely with the other provinces. How necessary it is to us, therefore, that the Dominion should give us every oppor- tunity of exchanging our products with those of the other provinces—an advantage which the latter have now for some years enjoyed. Our loss in this respect cannot be valued or computed in dollars and cents. We have as industrious, as intelligent and as thrifty a population in Prince Edward Island for our numbers ag can be found in any part of the Pominion of Canada. There ig no reason why Prince Edward: sland should not be one of the manufac- turing centres of this Dominion. We have access, and close access, to the magnificent coal fields of Pictou, Nova Scotia, and Cape Breton. We are ia close proximity to the iron mines of Londonderry, and we have in Prince Edward Island the advantages of cheaper food for operatives than in any other portion of the Dominion, and if we had the same facilities for intercourse with the markets of the Continent that the other provinces enjoy we have not the slightest douht that large manufactories would have. been established in Prince Edward Island long before now. But we are debarred from that because we are excluded, for want of proper communication, from the markets of the Dominion for five months of the year; and by the National Policy from the markets of the world for the remaining seven months of the year.

Obituary.
The death of Edward Kickham, Esq-, which took place on the 9ih inst., at his residence, Souris West, calls for more than: a mere passing notice. Mr. Kickham was born in Fethard, County Tipperary, Ire- land, in the year 1805, and came to this Island at an early age. For a number of years he was engaged in mercantile business in this city where he accumulated consider- able means. He afterwards removed to Souris West and engaged in business there. Soon he became one of the leading mer- chants in that part of the conntry, and in connection with a general retail store carried on a large fishing business and also shipbuilding. Asa colleague of the Hon. Judge Hensley he was choseu a member of the House of Assembly by the electors of the First District of King’s. He served out a term, but being defeated at the next election he retired from active politics, though he remained a true Liberal of the Coles and Whelan stamp to the close of hfe. He was also a Justice of the Peace for the County for many years, As a pri- vate citizen he was genial and hospitable. In every relation of life he possessed good qualities, both of head and heart. He ieaves a wife and family to whom we extend our sympathies.

A Quaint Ric.—A Halifax despatch says : Among the passengers on the Caspian was a farmer from the other side who abiracted great stiention from his quaint appearance. He wes short of stature, about sixty years of age, and his costume would win a prize at an ice carnival, consisting of a red flannel shiré, pants »f the same material, a tweed vest and an inside coat much worn, and a short oi!-skin coat outside. He wore a beaver, which was dented in numerous places, was covered with dust, und had, evidently, seen much usage. Lied around his body was a whip, and over his right shoulder he carried an oats bag con- taining ail his clothing, etc. Iu his left hand ne carried a scythe. He said he was » farmer ind intended to work his way to Buffalo, N. Y., where he had friends. He had two sons ia this country, but has not heard from thera for uiong time. His wife was dead, and they might be dead as well, fur all he knew,
