OPINION OF LIBERAL LEAD-

ERS.

He Charges them With Insincerity and Superlative Hypocrisy.

Rev. D. V. Lucas has writtea the follow-

ng letter to the Toronto Mail and Em-

pire:

Sir,—I was present in the House at Ottawa in the early winter of 1878. when Sir John McDonald arose at midnight, and acnounced the policy of hie varty, thence until now as‘* The

National Policy.” wa hours, setting forth in general, and to a consid: rable extent in detail, the priu- ciples ot the proposed policy- His closing words were: * With these principles and this policy, Mr. Speaker, the Liberal Conservative party proposes to stand or fall.’ A few months later hie party was returned to power with @ majority which astonished Sir John quite as mach as it did Mr. McKenzie.

Oo the assembling of Parliament, after Sir John was restored to power, the details of the policy announced began atonce to assume the form of law, till every part and every principle and every promise made to the people was by the parliament adopt ed and woven up with the life and progress and = stability of our couotrr. Here was political boneaty, party in~ tegrity, and consistency which went.o make Canadian politics respected and trusted. The adoption of and adher~ eace to the privciples of that policy gave ap impetus to our struggling industries, anda resurrected life to such of them ae died out under the former regime, ae well as the birth of new industries, such as had never been seen in Canada. I was at that time @ resident of the city of Montreel. Many persons bad left Canada, seeking employment, many were in the city with~ out employment, some were working half time, and business genenally was ata standstill. Io less than one year after the returo of Sir Jchn to the head of the Gov- ernment, the Hudon Cotton Factory was doubled in size, anda year ater was doubled again. New cotton factories were erected. The Redpaths, forced out ot the country by the stupid policy of the precediog Government, rekindled their fi es and set ecores of men at work again

refining sugar and so on, all over the country. Strange to say, while protec- tion went up, prices went down. Granu lated sugar, for which I was obliged to pay ten cepts under the revenue tariff, fell to seven cents, and Jater, to less than that, Cottons, flannels, and simost all the neceesities of life were reduced in price twenty, twenty-five, avd even fifty per cent.

While Mr. McKenzie(an honest free trader, though mistaken as to Canada’s needs) wae still in power, it ie amatter of record that Sir Joho and Sir Charles Tupper went to Sir Richard Cartwright, then Finance Minister, and tried to in- duce him to either put a protective duty ov refined sugar, orallow raw sugargto come in free, 80 asto save the Redpaths

and any other refizeries from closing down. They were both well aware that | if the Mackenzie Goverument accepted the policy they proposed, either as o whole, or even in part, it would for

years preyent their own return to power; but as Sir John said, and Sir Charles concurred, they were willing to sacrifice their political hopes aod ambitions for the sake of saving the indusiries, and the country itself, from financial fuin.

Here was patriotism. Here wae a putting of country and the welfare of the people before party. These leaders of the Conservative pariy told Sir Richard that if he would accept this propo- sal, for the sake of the leading industries in Canada they would give to Government their support in carryingthe measure through the House. Following this hon- eet, pure patriotism, asI bave shown, were the sincere and honest declaration and enactment and application of those principies which Sir Jobn and tbose about him felt were the best that could be done for the welfare of the country.

How is it to-day ? Does not the Gov- ernment of to-day occupy a position that is absolutely false—a position wholly at variance with all they made very em- phatic when in Opposition? Some one may cay: “Well, is not the country pros- spering? Are not times good? So what’s the odds who isin power?” Bi odde, my brother. I will lookat the present prosperity of the country a little later. For the present I want to say there is something besides financial prosperity to be taken into ac- count; something upon which all real prosperity, financial or otherwise, depends, and that is national honesty, national in- tegrity, national moral self-respect. If the gentlemen who now at Ouawa hold the keys of office had that keen relish for consistency and moral honesty which should control the chief men of a Chris: tian nation, they would hasten to his His Excellency, and say: “Your Excellency, we find we cannot Jenact and enforce the principles we honestly enunciated be- fore taking office. We must govern as honest men, or we Cesline to govern at all, not merely out of respect to the will and sentiment of a free people, but because we respect ourselves, and regard moral and political integrity a sscredthing.” Those great nations! disasters which befel the Jewish people began just

For the sake and safety of our snd, 1 wish they were not: but they are. snd every true patriot esteems truth ard honesty as a safe foundation for the indi- vidual or the nation, every blinded by partizan prejudice, will se himeelf against what is uotrue and ipsiu- cere. He is his own friend, as well as the friepd of bis race, when be doeaso, He wrosags himself when wneu he panders to these si 18. Have these gentlemen holding now the helm of state changed the general trade policy of the country ? They kuow they nave not. To affirm that they havc is to insult the intelligence of the Canadian people. To affirm that they have is but to add faleehood to duplicity and deceit, for they themselves know that they have not changed the trade principles inaugu- rated and adopted by Sir Jehn Macdonald aod his party twenty-one years ago. Im- porters, farmers of the North-West, maoufacturers, and a host of honest free. traders know they have not changed the general priociples of the National Policy. Bac they said they would if they got into power ; they solemnly avowed it ; reiterat~ ed it ; they saiu it with great vehemence. They forced poor old houest Alexander Mackenzie to give up the jead - ership of their party and to feel himeelf forsaken asd with tears in his eyes to say ashe stood op the flocr of the House, “1 have no friends,” because he could nct stem the Niagara of public opio.oo and bring about the free trade he so honestly believed in, Because he could no! do what he lacked the power to do, or lacked the power to prepare the way for the doing ot it, #0 stropg was public opinion against it, they threw him overboard and let bim perish politically, yet, when they have tLe power todo that which they condemned him for not coirg, they doit not themselve, Were they sincere then? If they were, ob what a fall is here my countrymen ? Where is their sincerity now? They are something more than hypocrites, they are Hypogrits. That is hypocrites raised to the superlative degree. Because Edward Blake henestly thought tbat che principles of the National Policy were 80 deeply roted in the minds of Can. - dians,and had accomplished so much gov. in Canada that it wouli be wrong atid foolish even to attempt to overtarow them, tne gentlemen now in power flung him oui of the leadership ot their party as men “sling stones out of the middle of a sli.g.” Yet, when these gentlemen get into power tuey moake pot even one attempt to dot! at for which they kicked him into obliv on for, only saying ther had better not do i. Wich leads me to remark in the secoud place, that a Hypogrit isa hypocrite, and more so.

The present Firat Minister was chosen as the leader of their party because he was ~ free trader out and eut; because ine would utterly demolish the accursed prin- ciple of protection as sooo as he could lead his pear foliowers io the treasury benches, J and have free trade“ as they bave i: i. England.”® fle roared aga‘nsi the princi. ples of protectidn, Sir Richard rcared,S'r What You.May-Call-Him roared, Sir What’s-His-Name re-echoed it, till the whole land resounded with their rating. It wasa long rorr,a strong roar, and a roar all together. It was terrible. But no sooner hivve these lions reached the jungle with their prey tnan their roaring 18 turned into that of “the sucking dove.” They know that they bave not changed the principles of the National Policy. They know more. They know they dare not, loving office as they do more than they love consistency. Thy kacw that if they dared even to attempt t» change the general principles of thei- National Policy their political party super- structure would soon tumble in ruins about their ears, and they would have tu go out and roar some more. “QO, but they have readjusted the tariff.” No more than it was readjusted as circumstances re- required, by the Conservatives them- selves. They very much prefer to tram ple under their feet everything they held sacred when not in power. Were they honest and sincere then? How about it now, my brethren ? Which leads me to

crit raised to the fourth degree,

Political arpirants will come out very much better if they cultivate and practice the common laws of honesty. These men declared also, when in Opposition, that the cational debt was becoming alarmirgly big; that if they were in power they would reduce it, They got alot of good honest people to vote for tirem because these dear people thought that these men meant what they were saying, their ways were «0 sunny. Have they reduced the nations] debt? Have they made an effort todo so? That yery prominent member of the Gove eroment who does not hesitate to slander a ©ma!l colony of humble honest people, and insult the largest Protestant Church in the Dominion, emphatically refusing io apologize when bis attention is called te the wrong done ; that prominent member of the Cabinet lacking those principles which

Drags are expensive, Sometimes they are more expensive than need be. And sometimes they are not so reliable as they ought to be. There was atime when the prices of druge vere away up—too high altogether. That is not the case now. The Apcth- ssaries Hall changed that sume time ago.
