SIR OLIVER TO THE RESCUE

A few days ago the Patriot announced in flaming leadlines that “Sir Mowat Resigns Ontario Premiership,” and “He wil! Join Forces with Hoo. Mr. Laurier.” Joy prevailed in the Opposi- tion camp. Speculation was high aa to what constituency the “ Grand Old Man’’ would select.

It was shrewdly suspected that the Premier of Oatario would, ere long, become the Premier of Canada, and that the shifty, indefinite, unreliable pol- icy of Mr. Laurier would be changed for one in which some practical statescraft

would be visible. But these delightful

anticipations vanish in the light thrown on the scene by Sir Oliver's epistle. It appears that Sir Oliver had

But he has not resigned the Premiership and he has not gives evidence of his in- tention to leave his present offices and try his fortune in the fight now beginning.

The Patriot must know that this para- graph is not consistent with thelaw of Canada and the opinion of the Hon. David Mills. The law of Canada limits the power of Maniteb: as to education, and authorizes the Dominion Government und Parliament of Canada to interfere whea the limit has been oversteppec—as it bas been. We should ali be delighted to let Manitoba manage her schools without our adivice or assistance; but we are, as good citizens, forced to assist in upholding the law in that case made and provided.

The Patriot’s charge of garbling is un- true and unkind; and the Sentinel’s ad-

vice is contrary to the law which governs the Manitoba case.

who now ask you to entrust them with the reins of government. We have steadily striven to make Canada

AN UNITED AND PROSPEROUS COUNTRY.

I invite you to compsre the record of the two parties before you, and, with ali the facts in v.ew, dispassionately declare which is better entit!ed to your confidence The Conservative party has consistently adhered to certain fixed principles of government as being best adapted to the needs of the country, while the course of the Liberal party has been vacillating and uncertain, whether iu reiation to hecal matters: or the general development of Canadian interests. Our policy bas many times had your endorsation, aod [ trust may still command your hearty approba- ». I feel that I may aafely appeal to main- taining the national policy as a measure essential to the continued prosperity of Canada. In doing this it is not necessary to enter upon an elaborate series of argu ments in support of that proposition. The people of Canada may be trusted to ex- press their convictions upon this supreme issue with a clear understanding ot the attitude of the two parties. On one hand the Conservative party stands definitely and clearly committed to the continuation of a fair measure of protection to the in- dustries ofthe Dominion, involving an

tion.

EQUAL MEASURE OF PROTECTION

to labor represented in these industries On the other hand, the Liberal party has declared for free trade, sometimes de scribed as “free trade as it is in England,” but always as “removing every vestige of protection.” The issue, therefure, is sharp- lv defined, and you are once again judges between parties.

With your verdict in favor of the Gov- ernment, as it was in 1878, 1882, 1887 and 1891, the industrial progress of Can- ada is assured; whereas,a declaration in favor of the Libera! party will undoubted ly lead to a reversal of the fiscal policy which has obtained since 1878, and toa disastrous revolution in the general busi- ness ef the country. I cannot, therefore, too earuestly impress upon yeu the very great impertauce of keeping this issue directly and sieadily in view. It is with prile lak you to contemplate the posi- tion of Canada today and measure the causes which have combined to bring about happy conditions everywhere ap- parent. When I first entered public life, Canada was represented by a few scattered provinces, having little of cohesion and feeble in national strength. We are now a strong confederation, stretchiny from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and command- ing

THE ADMIRATION OF THE WORLD

for our progress, stability and immeasu- able resources. The mere act of union, howerer, has not brovght about this re- sult. From 1867 till 1878 we made but slow and uncertain progress. Something was wanted to give effective and genera! stimulation to the life of the Dominion, and that something was found in the Na- tional Policy. It was my privi‘ege to be directly associsted with its introduction and development, and in the light of re- sults, so self-evident as not to rquire statistical corroboration at this time, I ask you to assist me in keeping its fan- damental! provisions intact.

At the Colouial conference which met in Ottawa in 1894 a series of resolntions was adopted in favor of closer trade rela tions within the empire, involving the principe of preferential tariff arrange- ments. This opens a hopeful view to Canada. During the past few years our export trade with Great Britain has under- gone great expansion, and particularly in the products of the farm. Our total trade with thet country kas increased from $67,288,848 in 1879 to an average of $101,011,304 during the past five years, while the annual export of farm products alone has increased from $32,028,611 to $50,106,893 in the same period. With a tariff based on

MUTUAL CONCESSIONS,

it is reasonable to expect a still greater development of our trale in that markt, and we should at the same time be ren- dering material assistance towards unity and the strengthening of the empire, without involving a lessening of protec- tion to our industries. On patriotic and commercial ground<, therefore, this meas- ure is worthy of your cordial! support. You have been kept well advised of the positive steps taken by the government to secure a better stea:nship service on the Atlantic between Caneda and G. eat Britain. At the present time we are at a serious disadvantage in that respect, much of our business in freight and passenger traffic being done by way of American ports, in- volving heavy losses to Canadiana interests and Canadian prestige. Weare now en gaged, in concert with the British govern- ment, in establishing a service that shall be capable of competing in apeed, comfort aad general facilities with the best fleet of steamers now plying on that ocean, and if we are enabled to carry this plan into ex- ecution, itis certain that great benefits will accrue to Canada. We shall not only be in @ position to command the trade of the dominiom without foreign help, but by reason of : OUR GEOGRAPHICAL POSITION

and the speed of the proposed service, it may fairly be assumed we shall also re- ceive a share of the traffic of the western states, with all advantages attaching thereto. The boards of trade of Canada, without exception, have declared strongly in favor of improved mail and passenger service between this country and Great Britain, and in giving effect to their de- mands the government feel they ure entitled to the co-operation of the electorate at arge. It is an andertakiog which con- cerns all classes—the farmers, wh.ose pro- ducts need to be marketed abroad in the Lest possib!e condition, quite as much as the man of general affairs. In a word, Canada cannot afford any longer tooccupy ao inferior position in the matter of the steamship service on the Atlantic.

Closely associated with the improve- ment of our steamship service on the Attantic is the project of making Canada the caief highway between Great Britain and Australia, and between Great Britain and the east. The means for accomplish- ing this greatundertaking are at band, and with the assistanze of the Canadian peo-

ple at this juncture success is assured. At

| the present time our great trapscontinent-

line of railway affords to Great Britain THE BEST AND QUICK -ST MEANS

of reaching the Pacific. From that point on our western Coast, two lines of steamers ply, one to China and Japan and the other to Australia. Ech has clearly establish ed the practicability of beceming the best and speediest line of coinmunication be tween the metropolis of the world and the points indicated. The imperial govern- ment clearly grasps the importance of this fact, and has already given tangible evi-

| dence of its desire to make the plan effect-

ive by affording direct financial aid to the Atlantic link of the chain, as well as to the service between Vancouver and the Orient.

Among the things which, however, re remain to be done 1s the laying of a cable in the Pacific, as an essential complement to the transportation facilities, and at this time Sir Mackenzie Bowell and Sir Donald Smith, the high commissioner cf Canada, aided by Sandford Fleming, have been commissioned by the Canadian govern ment to meet representatives of the imi per- ial and Anstralasian governments in Lon- don, England, for the purpose of arranging the terms upon which this very important undertaking may be carried out. Jt is my earnest des.re that Canada should hold the proad position in which the accom- plishment of this imperial scheme will place her, and towards this end I have given my best evergies for many vears.

It is unnecessary that I should attempt within the scope of a paragraph to review the position of the government in relation to the

MANITOBA SCHOOL QUESTION Although shamefully misrepresented by men who have had a purpose to eerve in doing so, or who have been misled by a misapprehension of the real merits «f he question, the fact is recognized that the Government has taken a clear and definite stand on the constitutional aspect of the matter. Wehave simply done what we believed to be right in taking up the daty laid at our door bythe judgment of the highest court in the realm, and in endeav oringto redress the grievances of the Roman Catholic minority in Manitoba by restoring the rights and privileges guaran- teed to them by the constitution. Know- ing that our case rests up>n @ sound con atitutional basis, and feeling we are doing right, it is our patriotic duty to adhere to the policy we have adopted in this regar., and we now appeal for vindication te the sober sense of justice of the Canalian people,

The present Government has not been unmindful of the interests of the great agricultural clavs. For the past ten years there have been in operation a complete system of experimental farms admirably equipped and carried on with a view to demonstrating mst the profitable methods of farming. It is believed they have been of

GREAT BENEFIT TO THE FARMERS

in all parts of the country, and that their usefulness is capable of still greater exten- sion. The tariff, a+ brought into operation in 1878, haa protected the home market for agricuitural products and encouraged the export trade, an important fact which can be easily proven. It has beem the policy of the Government to provide rail- way and shipping facilities throughout the Dominion, so that the products of the farm may be marketed tothe best advantage and with the be-t resulte to the producer. In addition tothisthe Government has undertaken during the past year to estab- lish cold storage centres, in which perish- able products intended for shipment abroad may be kept in the best condition for the market and at the lowest possible cost to the producers.

Particular attention has been given to the development of the great dairy inter- ests of the country. In short, the gov- ernment has left nothing undone which could assist the farmers of Canada in making the most outof their laboran’ s‘cill, and this course it is proposed to follow in the future.

You are aware that the government, realizing the relations we bear to the em- pire, proposes to strengthen ths national defences. For this purpose a sub-tautial vote was asked from Parliament during ite last session. The first element of na- tional sentiment involves

A SPIRIT OF SELF RELIANCE

anda readiness to make sacrifices for the common good. I propose, therefore, with the means at our di-posal, to make the perfecting of our militia one of the firat considerations of the Government,in order that when it is called upon to do its duty it may have all the advantage that proper trainiag, armament and equipment can give. This step, I trust wiil bave your hearty approbation.

The Government fully appreciates the seed of an increased population in the great farmiog province of the west, and propose to take all practicable step: with- in Our means to induce a large and desir- able immigration.

We contemplate the resumption, at an early day, of negotiations looking to the admiesion of Newfoundland into the Do- minion, which we regard as a desirable rounding off of the great Canadian confed- eration, and to attain which end we are prepared to make all reasonable conces- sions.

In conclus‘on, I ask you to rejoice with me in viéwing the high credit which Can- ada enjoys im the great money markets of the world. Our securities stand at the highest premium as the direct result of the prudent methods of administration and confidence in our national stability. It is of the first importance that this faith in our standing and prospects should not be disturbed by exposing the country to the revolutionary policy of the Liberal party. Our credit is a measure of the financial! burdens we bear, and the foreign market is most sensitive to change.

It seems to me, therefore, you will rea- lize the part of discretion and keep the control of public affairs in the hands of the party which has done so much for the development of our great resources, and whose adherence to the sound principles followed by Sir John Mscijonald is capable of bringing about still better results,

It has been charged as a reproach against me that I have had too much con- fidence in the pessibi'ities and the destiny of my country, and that I have been guilty of looking too often on the bright side of things. Idouotdesy the allegation. I have always cherished the deepest faith in the future of this great confederation, and have given the best years of my life to the realization of those hopes, and now, at the allotted span of sife, [ retu:m to the strug- gle, strong in the belief that you will help me to carry on the work of making Canada the home of a great, & prosperous and a happy people.

WELL WORTH SEEING,

One of the handsomest pieces of church furniture ever produced in Prince Edward Island is on exhibition at Mark Wright & Co’s, down-town siore. It is the altar for the Roman Catholic chapel at Morell, and was built under instruction from Father McAulay. M:. George D. Wright, foreman for Mark Wright & Co, had the work in hand, and deserves much credit for the manner in which it has been executed.

The altar is made of pine and finished elaborately in white and gold. The carv- ings are very fine. The dimensions are 10 feet in length, and 16 feet high. This altar will be on exhibition for a few days, and all lovers of the beautiful will find pleasure in examining it. It is certainly gratifying that such excellent and elabor- ate work can be produced at “héme.

Besides this main -altar this firm have built for the same chapel two side altars, altar raii and eighty feet of every elabor- ate panneiling for the sanctury,
