Legislative Notes

As expression of regard for the memory of the Honorable George Coles and of sp prectation for his great services to the Pro- vince was fitting and proper on the part of

the Legislature upon the occasion of the de- mise of his amiable and estimable widow. In a larger and wealthier community, the moaument to such a man would be more substantial thaa bald resolution. But it is pleasing to have even thig assurance that the influence of the great Liberal Leader is not yet lost. The passage of the resolution will. we are sure, be gratifying to his chil- dren and descendaxts.

it may now, perhaps, be hoped that the Honorable George Coles’ work will not be, for the most part, undone by the Mort- gagee Government. So far, they have kept ** pretty dark” concerning their inten- tions in respect to the Mortgege Vote, the two-thirds Vote. the Franchise Deprivation and the Gerrymander. The resolution of which Promier Peters has given notice, is just as innocent of these monstrosities as that upon which the bill of last year was based.

It is becoming more and more clear that Mr. Boll should be in the Mortgagee Gov- ernment. /l's plea for the Mortgage Vore was the strongest we have yet heard, though it is, of course, all wrong. It it ssid, too, that the books at the Registry Office reveal the fact that the member for Bedeque is strengthening his claim to ad- missicn to the Peters Combination, and it seems evideot, from his conduct, on Mon- day night, that he means mischief if not soon admitted to the charmed circle. In hiscase the adage has been verified, ** a little learning is « dangerous thing ” The Prem- ier ought not to snubsucha man. Who knows but that he will, ere long, apply to the Government his policy of ** revenge.”

The Gerrymander party is on record as having refused to do a courteous and gentle- manly act, the justice of which they dared not deny. To Mr. Shaw's proposition that a vote of thanks be accorded the Dominion Government for theirspecial eff rtstoestab- lish the profitabie cheese industry in this Province, they opposed their bare m: jority of Oaly that, and nothing more ! Not one word could they offer in justifica tion of their conduct. The dumb foree of majority is their only strength, whether exerted behind closed doors or in the open Legislature.

The Legislature has been in session for s week, but the officiel reports, including the prbdlic accounts, have aot yet been brought

SUMMARY OF PROCEEDINGS.

——$—

Tvurspay, March 14.

Atter recess,—

Hon. Mr. Richards resumed the debate, defending the policy and administrauon of the Government.

Mr. Arsenault replied attacking the envr- mities of the Reserved Bill, and severely criticising the general administration of the Mortgage Government.

Hon. Mr. Sinclair regretted the removal from the House of the Leader of the Oppo- sition, and hoped that bis mantle wouia fall upon an equally worthy man, He con- demned the National Policy of the Dom inion Government, and commended our fruit show. When it was seen in England that we could grow such fruit, the people there would come to the conclusion that our climite is not so bad after all. He defended the management of the Stock Farm, and declared that there were hopes for the bull.

Mr. McKay contended strongly for a re- duction of the Legislature. But denounc- ed the Reserved Bul with its ‘‘new feat- ures.” As to taxation, he believed it was near, and that it would be heavy. So long as it was fairly applied, and the money was

properly used, the people would not object. He was against the policy of “shift” —the putting off

cf the evil day. He condemned the mort: gage vote as @ vicious piece of iegislation, and the franchise deprivation as must tyran nical. The latter involves taxation without representation. Mr. McKay strongly critic- raged the acts of the Commsioxer of Public Works, showing that he was not & “suc- cess” either ws a bridge-builder and re- pairer or as a scrubber. The right prin- ciple uf putting »p contracte for tender had been departed from in many instances, and the work put into the hards of political jobbers. A member of the Government nad a stone quarry, and stones from it had been placed upon the sides of the roads for their repair— soft, shaley stone, which was washing away under the influences of frosts and the rains.

House went into committee—Mr. Angus McLeod in the chair.

Mr. Shaw moved in amendment of the third clause an expression of thanks for the assistance and fostering care of the present Federal Government in re spect to the dairy interest. Mr. Shaw held that it was due to the Dom inion Government that our thanks should be expressed for their fostering care, par- ticularly in respect to our dairy products Hitherto the cheese industry has not been euccessful in this Province. But in view of the competition in grain from the Woeat and from the Kast, it has been found nec essary to make a change in our system of agriculture. The Dominion Goverument, seeing this, and hav-ng the interest of the farmura at heart, have encouraged them to enter upon the production of butter and cheese. Professor Rubertson had lectured in various parts of the country, seed for fodder corn had been supplied, the ‘‘plant” for a factory bad been provided, and the factory uperated for a season with signal success. Two hundred and seventy-tive boxes of September cheese had been sent to the Eoglish market, realizing th. highest price, viz., 56 shilling percwt. He believed that similar measures would be adopted by the Dominion Government in other sections of the Province, and thai the whole business would be superintended by Mr. Dillon. The product of the whole would be stamped ‘P. E. Island Cheese,’ so that it would be of uuiform and exceilent quality. In view of all these facts he thought that the thanks of the Legisl«ture, representing the farmers, were due the Dominion Goverament, Mr. Shaw referred to an attack made upon himself by the Commiasioner of Public Worksiaconnection with the promotion of the cheese industry He had been charged with forcing himseli upon various sections of the country and addressing meetings which he was no: asked to address, This was not true Even his sharpest political opponents hac mvited him to come and = speak on behalf of a movement which was for the common good. But he took no credit to himself. If any man in the Pro- vince deserved more credit than another in respect to the establishment of the cheese factory, it was Joho Hamilton, Esq, 0: New Perth, his life-long political opponent fhe success of the enterprise was largely due to Mr. Hamiiton.

Hoo. Mr. Gordon said that in his opinion

is due. Weowe it to the Dominion Gov- ernment that a cheese factory has been established at New Perth, and that similar factories are being established in other places. He regretted tu have to say that no credi: was due to the Provincial Administration ven their promise to provide a travelling dairy had not been fulfilled. It was expected that a “‘perambalator” would have been sent about the country with a young woman in one corner and a crock of cream in the other. But the young farmers had beea doomed to disap- poiutment. The excuse that they had no money could not be pleaded by the Govern ment, for they had obtained a debenture loan amounting to $165,000. The Dominion Gov- ernment had, however, done what they could, and to them our thanks are due, Mr. Gordon seconded the resolution.

Mr. McLean suggested (ironically) that Mr Shaw's name should be associated with the Dominion Goverument, and that, wih the young woman and the crock of butter, the Hon. Mr. Gordon should be sent around im a third corner of the perambulator.

The ‘‘majority” of one then voted down the reslution without another word

When the Speaker resumed the chair, the House divided upen it as follows ;

Strengthening the British Position.

Caveutta, March 15.

The British have had a severe battle with the tribes bey»nd Chitral; where the British tur some time have been endeavoring to streng hen the Indian frontier against the possibility «f Rassian encroachment.

The British= recently occupied Chilas, be- yond; Chitral, with a garrison. The mountain tribes made an attaek on the fort and were driven off with # loss of 200 men, The British then marched against the intrenched villages +f the hostile tiibes and stormed the village under the eemmand of Major Daniell, who was shot through the heart while leading his men in the assault. Every point occupied by the hostile natives was carried, the British losing 23 killed and 30 wounded. The tribes- men fina'ly submitted to the British authori- ties. The reeult of the struggle will greatly strengthen the British position at what is con- sidered its weakest point ia the vicinity of the Hindoo Kush.

DOMINION PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS. McCarthy's Resolation and Speech.

Dr. Montague’s Reply.

The Government is Ably De- fended.

Orrawa, March 15.

After routine yesterday on the motion to again consider supply, Mr. McCarthy mov- ed his trade and tariff resolution, The member for Simcee supperted his resolu- tion in a lengthy, but interesting, and at times poweriul speech. He asserted that the National Policy was formulated to meet au emergency, and was aot intended to bs psramouat, and that protection could only de justitied to the extent of its bene- fits to the people and equslized the finan- cial burdens which it imposed. Taking Mr. Colby’s speech of 1878 as the most exact statement of the expectations of the pro- moters of the National Policy,—in that speech Mr. Colby said that the National Policy would create a home market for far- mers snd prevent combines from putting up the price of their goods. Mr. McCarthy proceeded to argue that neither of these expectations had been realiz3d and that the time had arrived to say to the industries fostered by this policy since 1879, **You must henceforth paddle your owu canoe.” He asserted that ail che industries prospering through the N. P. were monoplies, and that the cousumers psid 30 per cent more under our protective yclicy than they would under free trade snd that where ever the price of home-made articles was nov equal to that asked for the imported article, the quality of the Cana- dian product was inferior. Mr. McCarthy spent some time trying to show that our tarmers fee! the tariffs the heaviest burden. He pointed te the result of the recent United States elestiona as an uprising of the American peuple against protection, and expressed surprise that the grits, after seeing that the solid sense of the country was opposed to Unrestricted Reciprocity and Commercial Union, did not abandon these fads altogether and was arguing in tavor of preferential trade relations with Eng! ind, when the House tovk recess till eight o'clock.

Mr, McVarthy resumed after recess, speaking at considerable length ia explana- ton of his resolution, and giving grounds why he did not believe that the Govera- ment would carry the tariff refurm to the extent demanded by the great mass of Can- adians, irrespective of party.

Mr, Hodgins, of Carleton,Ontario, (Con- servative) seconded Mr. McCarthy's resolu- tion,

Di. Mortague replied to Mr. McCarthy, reminding him that those who ave done best service to Canada, have in the past al- ways found scope for their labors within the lines of her two great political parties [he member for Haldimand followed Mc- Carthy through all his arguments and poinced out their glaring inconsistencies, tie defended the present position of the Government on the tariff question, and ex- pressed his confidence from what they had done in the past, that the Government would do what was best for the couatry in the immediate future.

The House and galleries were repeatedly convulsed with laughter by the keen shafts of hamor that Dr. Montague hurled at the mem ber for Simeve, and the telling extracte he ‘ead from his old time speeches, and the Con. servative benches rang with loud cheers as the eloquent doctor made it clear, beyond dispute, that Mr. MeCarthy’s present atiitude on the tariff question was due, not to a conviction that the N. v. was @ failuce, but rather to a desire to embarrass the Government.

Mr. Edgar followed Dr. Montague ti!l 11.50 whea Mr. Lavlor took the floor at miduighr

Hon. Mr. Ives moved the adjournment of the debate, and the House rose furthwith. The debate will be resumed on Thursday,

DEBT OF NEW BRUNSWICK.

Result of Grit Management.

Sr. Jonx, March 15.

Provincial Secretary Mitchell del'vered his Budget yesterday. He admits a deficit of $23000, though uew taxes devised last year brought in $22,500, and though nearly all the bridge expenditure formerly paid out of current revenue is now charged to capital and paid for with borrowed money. Besiaes, the current expenditure and railway ‘subsidies, bonds amounting to $150,000, were last year issued to pay for bridges. The net debt of the Province has been increased $270,000 during the year. The debt, less the Provincial balance at Ottawa and the amounts invested in sink- ing funds, is now $2,168,228, having more than doubled in seven years.
