THE CLAHOR FUR PROTECTION.

The Manufacturers’ Association rein-

forced by Mr.Tart.e are demanding higher protection for Canadian industries, and again we hear the cry that the Dominion is being made the dumping ground for the cheap manufactured produits of the L cited States and Germany. But our manufacturers have hitherto iounu it dinlcuit to agree among themselves as to thcpreeiee tart! they want. Two years a go they besieged Mr. Fielding who asked them than to adjust their difemnces and arrange a full tariff' schedule to their liking. A year was spent by a committee of the Association on this work and early last session the schedule was taken to

Ottawa. They rfered to show it to the Finance Minister but declined to present

ployment.

The snug, warm Russian Coats of rough faced

For the Boys, 6 to 15, we are showing Box

It may be that other stores have similiar gar-

_ The iron and steel industries of Canada, S _notabiyjthose at Sydney and the Soo, have " had trouble and the latter is making a out q in wages. These facts are made the ape- i i cial pretext for the demand for higher pro- tecrinr. But it is to be observed that these industries enjoy the highest protec- ` tion ever given in Canada. Moreover V, Germany, where the steel industry has been still more highly protected than it

has been in Canada was the Brat to exper-i lence general distress. Over production brought serious trouble there, resulting | in decreased wages, the shutting down ‘ i of a number of large plants and the failure

» “_ of bank after bank. That was more than _

5 year ago. It was followed six \ months later by trouble in the great steel ind ustry ofthe United States, which anteiated the trouble in Canada. Now it is well known that in the States the steel lndustry is favored with the highest protection in the world, so high in fact that the manufac- turers were able to charge $28 per ton for steel rails in the home market while sell- ing the same quality of rails' to other countries for $18 and that at a good pro- fit. And yet wages have been out down there, and many thousands of American steel makers have been turned out of em-

Therc are facts to be taken into consid- eration in making up our minds whether _ or not the Canadian tariff ought to be raised. And thcre is the further fact that in Great Britain, which is next to the _United States the greatest of steel mak- ing countries, and where the manufac- turers have ne tarin protection and no ibiounties, we have no word of trouble

similar to that which has befallen the;

Andyet, if

It is announced that the surveys for the

Grand Trunk Paciflo have been completed eastward from Winnipg to Lake Abbitibi, which lies near the western boundary of Quebec Province. This covers something more than half and less than two thirds of the distance between Winnipeg and Quebec City. We are not informed of any survey being made in New Brunswick, so far.

“Another Citizen" writing The Examin-

er contradicts the statement as to the number of convictions, etc., twenty~five years ago. The year referred to in our _

was 1877, in which year there

were 16 policemen employed and there were also 729 convictions for drunken- ness. “Another Citizen” quotes figures

for 1878, showing there were fewer coc- victlons and also fewer policemen em-|

ployed in that year. This is_simply an _ evasion. The Guardian' original state- ment was absolutely correct.

Few are perhaps aware of the extent which irrigation is being applied in Assi- niboia and Alberta. A recently published blue-book and maps show that there now 169 canals or ditches in operation,

" covering a distance of 469 miles. These

are capable of irrigating no less than 614.-

684 acres of land, or 3,840 homesteads

100 acres each-It is estimated that the water thus provided will increase the value of the land in question by $3 per

acre, or an aggregate of $l.850.C00.

Just now we are sorry to see The Exam-

iner again becoming the vehiolelforl

coarse attacks upon the 'temperanoel cause in the form of letters. T_hcse anon; -

mous letters charge "cant," “dou_;ble-'

' dealing," “hyprocrisy” and “rottenness”

against t-he tcmperance advocates. T Such letters cannot bcnedt the rum- ecllsrs very much, and are at the same time ofensive to lovers of order and decent discussion. We are confident

that the publication of the letters referred to will not bring any increase of _respect `

for The Examiner.

an increased tarifl’ toward foreign onunt- ries. The Canadian Government has been

very reticent on the subject except for the implied threat of abrogatiog the pre- ference now given to Britain if the latter dses not respond in kind. It is to be ob- served, however that the Commonwealth and the Dominion do not stand up-an the

same footing. Canada has already gh en a preference of one third eff regular tariff rates. It is not likely that Australia will do any better than this,even ii Mr. Cham- bex1ain’s plan should be adopted. The generalfeeling is that Uanadv has done quite enough in a preferential way and that it is up to Britain to make the next

. move.

of Australia has, taken notice of Mr. Chamberlair\’s tariff proposals and in a Dublic address has promised to meet any advances of the Mother Country either by a reduced tariH toward Great Britain or
