An Excellent Speech by Senator Prowse.

Senator Howsan was followed by Sen- fators Kaulbach, Poirier and Haythorne. : All were agreed ag to the importance of the mroboral, and all congratulated Senator lowlan on the ability with which he had advocated it; but each raised some objec- tions, those of Senator Haythorne being the cost of the: .werk,—the probability being that . springs of water woald flood the excavation whilé the tunnel was being constructed, and the statement of be- lief that the terms of Union only. gnaran- teed communisation by steam navigation. Sanator Prowse repled. We quote the Senate Hansard : Hon. Mr Prowss.—I look uponthe ques- tion before the House as being one the greatest importance to’ Prince Hdward Is- fand that could possibly come before Par Nament, and I think also that it is one of very great importance to the Senate of the Dominion of Canada as well. You are aware that Prince Edward Island did not enter the Union at the time ofthe Confed- eration of the other Provinces.. That was a union which took placa in i867, and aly chough the first meeting,"as I said’on a for- mer Gccasion, to bring about that Union, took place in Prince Hdward Island, yet the terms then proposed on which to effect the union were not considered applicable and acceptable to the people of that Prov- ince, and the consequence was that the Union took place between Canada, Nova Seotia and New Brunswick, while ‘Price Edward [sland did not come into the Union until six years afterwards, in 1873. It was well known, however, not only to the Do- munion of Canada at that time, but also to the people of Prince Hdward Island, that it was the earaest desire of whole the people of this,Canada of ours,as well asthe desire of che British Government and the British pedple, thst a confederstion of all the British Proay-

repeatedly made and efforts put forth to in- duce not only Newfoundland, but Prince E¢cyard Island also, to enter the Union fro U 1867 to 1873. In 1869, I think, was
