DEBATE ON THE BUDGET, DR. MONTAGUE’S ABLE SPEECH,

[Special Correspondence of The Examiner. ]

[conTINUED. }

lected bythe Labor and Statistical Bureau of Illinois in 18,57, shew — 74,740

$20,354.000, with interest unpaid amounting to $2,000,000, or equal to 5.50 per head as the amount of chattel mortgages in that scate. In the State of Ohio, one of the best Agri- cultural States in the Union, in 1888, the mortgages on the farms amounted to $133,- 990,000 and the interest to $26,000,000, per year, or only $1,090,000 less than the total waeat crop of the state. Mr Washington Gladen says :

‘In Obio farms are offered for beggarly rents, 4nd even on these favorable terms farming does not pay. Tenant farmers are throwing up their leases and moving into the city, well content to receive as eommon labourers $1.25 a day, and to pay such rents and to run such risks of enforced idleness, as the change involves,”

In regard to the State of Indiana, Mr. Dunn, State Chairman, has stated in his article in the Popular Science Monthly: “The increase in farm’ mortgages from 1872 to 1879 was $69,000,000; from 1852 to 1888, $46,000,000, or an increase in 13 years of $106,060,000.’ In Michigan the burdeu of debt is $129,000,000, and the interest re- quired $9,000,000, or 20 acres of each farm in the state requires to pay interest or mortgages. For Missouri, Mr. Mansne in the House of Representatives, had stated that in his county real estate was worth $1,850,000 and mortgaged for $1,012,000, not including city, town or village property. In the same speech he had given the following list of current prices: ‘Fat beef, 1} cents; fat hogs, 3 1-10 cents; fat shipping cattle, 3 cents; wh-at, 62 cents a bushel; oats, 14 cents.”

The Doctor then referred to the State of Pennsylvania, and to the evidence of the farmeis of York County in that State. Notwithstanding that the county is a splen- did one, the climate and soil good, and the people industrious and practical, this was the condition of affairs there to-day :—

| ‘* They (the farmers) are not prospering. | They are slipping backward year after year instead of gaining. Or wheat sells at a price below the cost of production. It is now 74 to 76 cents, corn 36 to 40 cents. Fattening cattle has declined wonderfully. It is rare for feeders to get market price ‘for corn fed to the stock. Dairying is not remunerative, even when conducted with | the most approved machinery and appli- ances and under the best known system.” Yet notwithstanding this widespread con- ‘dition of things in the United States, Sir Richard holds up the flag of hope to the | farmers of Canada, and tells them: ‘‘ You will grow rich by securing partnership in that sixty million market which lies across ‘the border.” But the answer of the Uppo- sition to all this was: ‘‘Oh, the farmers of the United States are ruined by protection, and yet they want Canadian farmers to join interests with farmers who are already ruined by protection.”

The Doctor continued :—It is a pleasure to turn to the condition of the farmers of Canada. They have had some bad crops, but there has been no sericus suffering. Sir Richard had asserted that ruin and stagnation existed everywhere, but he was very careful to sing a different tune in his canvass before the election. True, he talked ef hard times, but these hard times were always somewhere else, never among the people he was addressing, for they would not have listened to him had he told them that ruin and stagnation existed all over Canada. Sir Richard was very care- ful about that.

Referring to the charge that the popula- tion was decreasing, Dr. Montague quoted from Sir Richard to show that when he was in oftice he regarded such a decrease as something which might and would occur without any lack of propriety in the coun- try. Sir Richard had said in his Budget Speech for 1874 :—

**T find, Sir, on looking over the returns for the Province of Ontario, the largest and most populous province of the Dominion, that out of the 88 electoral districts into which it is divided, there were only 35 in which the increase was 10 per cent. during the ten years. Precisely the same thing has occurred, under the same conditions, in the great State of New York and other States of the Union, which are in the most highly prosperous condition. Iam, there- fore, justified in warning the House that, so far as regards the older provinces of the Dominion, we ought not to look for any very large increase of population.”

As regards Manitoba and the Northwest, said the Doctor :

“There is not a man who will rise up in this Houte and say that the people of Manitoba will trade positions with the people of any other part of the Americancon tinent. There is not a man who will stand up and say that he has anything to tell but a story of ever- increasing crops, of multiplying towns aud villages, of increasing numbers of homes dot- ting the prairies from Winnipeg to the Rocky Mountains. When the hon. gentleman talks about suffering in the Province of Manitoba and the Northwest, he cannot produce a single agricultural paper, or any paper published between Winnipeg and the sea, he cannot point to a single petition brought down to this House, which will show the people of Manitoba and the Northwest to be anything but a happy, prosperous and contented peop’e, satisfied with the present and ever hopeful for the future,”

The Doctor then proceeded to shew that Sir Richard had not dealt honestly with the trade returns, that while he had enumerated countries with which our trade had fallen off, he had taken no account of

The Doctor continued :—The figures col- |

chattel- | mortgages, representing an indebtedness of '

| 'South America, Belgium, China, Japan, ‘ Germany, where it has increased 700 per

cent., and Australia where it has increased 1,000 per cent. He had also left out the |greatest increase of all—the increase of our | trade with Great Britain, which from 1878 to 1890 had increased from $33,743,000 to $48,353,000, and at the same time our trade with the United States had decreased from $42,000,000 to $40,000,000. The Doctor then quoted the president of the Board of Trade of Tcronto as saying that the Ontario farmer makes a much larger profit than. his American neighbor, and | proving by figures giving the average yield i per acre for the last eight years that upon certain articles enumerated the Oatario farmer had over a million dollars advantage over the United States farmer. The Doc- tor also qu ted Mr. Cox, president of the , Bank of Commerce (a Liberal candidate), | Mr. Walker, general manager of same bank, | Mr. George Hague, manager of the Mer- | chants Bank, and Mr. Gooderham, presi- ident of the Bank of Toronto, in evidence of (the general prosperity of the Ontario far mer. He next quoted Prof. Shaw of the ‘Guelph Agricultural College, also a grit,

\who had proved by figures that in the ar-

ticle of pork alone Outario farmers are gaining $1,000,000 a year more than if they if they received United States prices The Doctor then quoted bank deposi.s and statistics of life insurance in proof of the progress of Canada, concluding that branch of his argument with the following apt quotation from the Toronto Globe :

‘*Mistrust all figures professing to show that Canada has retrograded instead of be- ing advancing. Avoid association with the teachers of despair; oll men who, with wornout powers, assert that national sui- cide is the only course of national salvation may be excused by consideration of their senility, but young men who echo their doleful refrain can never seem otherwise than contemptible.”

Sir Richard had said that Canada was suffering from two things—high taxa- tion and excessive competition. For the first he recommended joining hands with the United States, which, he admitted, are taxed higher than we are. How that was going to bring relief he did not explain. The remedy for the second complaint was the same as for the first. The relief of- ferred for excessive competition was to join hands with a people who raise $150,- 000,000 worth of breadstuffs more than they require for their own use, who raise provisions and meat to the extent of $135,- 000,000 more than they consume, who own live stock to the vaiue of $32,240,000 more than they require. He asks us to rid our- selves of intense competition by joining hands with a people who raise enough for themselves and $400,000,000 worth to spare. Sir Richard had spoken of the trade be- tween Canada and Great Britain as ‘‘a paltry fraction of insignificant trade,” yet the United States is stretching out its hands to secure those markets of which he speaks so contemptuously. Let me tell him that nothing but a feeling of hostility to everything British, even to a British market, could induce him to say that our trade with Great Britain which is likely to be interfered with is ‘‘a paltry fraction of insignificant trade.” In 1890, Great Britain took $48,353,690 of our products, while the United States only took $40,- 522,810, and, while the trade with the United States has been greatly lessened, the market of Great Britain has been in- creasing in its demands for our products. That market is almost unlimited in its re- quirements. In Great Britain they re- quire annually 110,000,000 Ibs. fresh beef, 55,000,000 lbs. of canned meats, which we can produce, 6,500,000 lbs. of other meats, 106,000,000 Ibs. of lard, 117,000,000 Ibs. of tallow, 189,000,000 Ibs. ef butter,{203,000,- 000 Ibs. of cheese, 427,000,000 lbs. of ham and bacon, 26,000,000 lbs. of salted beef, and 140,000,000 cwt. of breadstuffs, as well as $16,000,000 worth of eggs, all of which classes of goods we can supply. The hon. gentleman says that this is all prospective. A few years ago gentlemen spoke of the cattle trade in the same terms, but we find that the export of cattle which twelve years ago amounted to only $500,000, in 1890 amounted to $7,000,000. A few years ago men like the hon. gentleman sneered at the cheese trade with Great Britain, but to-day we are exporting cheese to the value of $9,349,731. Then of the great butter trade with the British Islands Canada can be relied upon to supply a great portion, and that with great advantage to the farmers of Canada. While the hon, gentlemen is preaching blue ruin in this House to the farmers of Ontario, his friends in the Provincial Government are doing the opposite. ‘They are doing their best to induce the farmers to produce an article of butter of a first-rate quality. They have appointed their dairy commissioner, who is instructing the people everywhere through- out the province how to manufacture an article which is best appreciated in Great Britain. While the hon. gentleman is miu- imizing the value of this trade here, his friend the Hon. Mr. Mowat—and it is to his credit —is instructing the farmers how to open up the market for butter in Great Britain. The hon. gentleman wails about the McKinley Bill, but the agricultural college which is run by his Ontario friends in Guelph is progressing and Mr. Shaw, the professor in that college, has recently written an article for the press in which he shows that there is room for an export of $1,000,000 worth of lambs from Canada to Great Britain. In that there is a prospect of wealth for the farmers of Oatario. This trade with Great Britain is that to which my hon. friend refers as ‘‘a paltry fraction of insignicant trade.” If he will read the Ameri- ean reports, if he would attend the meetings of American stock associations or agricultural societies, he would find that the great point of discussion is how they shall be prepared to send to the British Isles the great classes of products which that country requires. He asks how that trade will be interfered with. In the first place, we are likely to endanger the whole of the great cattle trade we have with that country. The hon. gentleman may say that we can keep up the quarantine regulations between this country and the United States in the same way as those regu- lations are kept up between the different States, Thatis true, but the hon, gentleman

knows that there is a great jealousy on the part of the British public in regard to the cattle imports. He knows that. it is only with great care and great management that we have been able to keep up to that trade with Great Britain; but, if we were to turn our back on the mother country, and to dis- criminate in favor of the United States, the result would undoubtedly be that an embargo would be placed on Canadian cattle,
