ability of a union of the Maritime Pro- | by politicians in Canada ss well as in the Financial and Other llatters
vinces. That is to say, the following reso- | lution was, a few days ago, unanimously | adopted :—
Resolved, That it is the opinion of this | house that « legislative union of the Provinces | of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince | Edward Isiand is desirable and would be in| the pablic interest.
As a result of the adoption of this reso- lution the question will now, probably, be again discussed at large.
That we are all too much governed will be readily admitted.
That the money eapended in tenance of five legislative houses and tw. | Lieutenant Governor's might well be saved | and applied to the maintenance of roads and bridges, and schools; and that one legislative house and one Lieutenant Gov- ernor would be amply sufficient, if muni- cipalties were established ali over the coun- try, will also, in view of the experience of Ontario, be admitted.
There seems to be no valid reasongwhy New Brunswick and Nova Scotia should not at once unite as it is propered that they shall.
As to this Province,—it is small, ‘and politically weak, and geographically isolat- ed. Consequently the people will not con- seat to yield to a Maritime Legislature in which they would have, practically, no influence, the control over their local affairs. li there were a tunnel or other means of continuous communication by which they could be, commercially and socially, on an equality with the people of
the man-|
neighboring Provinces, they might, psr- haps, be induced to agree to a Maritime Union; and if effective guarantees
were given that they would always have expended here, asthey may desire, their fair share of the public money at the dis- posal of the Maritime Province’s Legisla- ture, they might perhaps be persuaded to enter a Maritime Union. But, otherwise, they are not likely to give up their present rights, unless forced to do so by the pres- sure of financial necessity.
Weare bound to admit that the present sendency is towards a financial crisis, in which the people of this Province may be compelled to yield their Provincial rights. The Government of this Province cannot withdraw $200,000 from our capital at Ottawa one year and $100,000 from our capital inthe Land Office another year, and bear up under an increasing debenture debt or floating debt resulting from large annual deficits, without sconer or later ar- riving at the abyss of the financial chasm, where “‘something must he done,” if we would avoid Provincial ruin and disgrace. if the people of thia Proviace do not desire to be forced into Maritime Union and heavy direct taxation, they ought, as rea- sonable beings, to at once insiat upon the adoption of measures to enaure the equil- ibrium of their Provincial revenue and ex-
penditure. etre A Mischievous Press
It is greatly to be regretted that the press of the United States lets slip no op- portunity to cultivate a feeling of hostility between the United States and Great Britain. There seems to be no cause for thia, other than jealousy of the importance which Great Britian’s greatest colony has achieved as a result of the wondreful suc- cess of the Canadian Pacific Railway policy and « hope that political capital may be made in the comin« Presidential election
by exciting the anti-British feeling and winning the anti-British vote. This is evidently the reason why
auch a continuous bub-bub is kept up over the Behring Sea matter. The Government of the United States has really no better right to prevent Canadians and others from taking seals in Behring Sea, outside the three-mile limit, than the Government of Great Britain has to prevent United
States fishermen from catching (out- side the three-mile limit) mackere} in the Gulf of St. Lawrence or
herrings off the coast of Ireland. But, in response to the representations that the shooting of seals in Behring Sea must be con- trolled, or Behring Sea sea seals will soon be lost to the world, Great Britain has con- sented to abide by an arbitration of the matter. This concession, yielded for the sake of good fellowship and the preserva- tion of mutual interests, seems to have displeased rather than pleased the United States press. Every day the reading pub- lic of the States are brought face to face with gross and wicked misrepresentations of the motives and acts of Great Britaia and Canada. Of course the other side cf the question is, for the most part, kept carefully out of sight ; and the result must be the production of a public opinion in- consistent with those frieudly feelings which should ever exist between Great Britain and the Great Republic.

States. He says :— ‘If you are right in supposing that the subject is related to a duty I owe to the! couatry and to my party, a condition exists which makes private and personal consider- ations entirely irrevalent. I cannot, how- | ever, refrain from declaring to you that my | experience in the great ofice of President |
of the United States has co impressed me | with the sclemnity of the trust and its aw- | ful responsibilities that 1 cannot bring | myself to regard a candidacy for the place | as something to be won by personal strife) and active self-assertion. I have alao-an idea that the Presidency is pre-eminently the people's office, and I have been sincere
jin my constant advocacy of the effective
participation io political affsira on the part of all our citizens. Consequently I believe the people should be heard in the choice ot their party candidates, and that they them- selves should make nominations, as directly as is consistent with open, faic and full party organization and methods.”
We commend these words to would-be candidates for seats in our House of Com- mons and Provincial Legislature.
Temperance Social.
One of the very best temperance enter- tainments ever given in this city took place last evening in the room of Orient Divis- ion, No. 161. At 8.15, the chairman, Bro. Theo. L. Chappelle, W. P., called the meeting to order and requested the brethren to sing the hymn of welcome, after which the chairman,offered a few remarks. Bro. John A. Lawson followed with a practical reading, followed by a speech from Bro. J J. Chappell. A song by Bro. John Ross came next, who received an encore. Rev. W. Hamlyn spoke brietly, and concluded with a recitation. Bro. David Small read An appropriate lesson on temperance. The song, “Which way is your musket « pointin’ to-day,” by Bro. J. KR. Davison, was capitally ren- dered and enthusiastically received and a hearty encore tendered. Bro. John T. Mellish followed with a review of the situa- tion, showing that the trend of the times pointed towards prohibition, and made com- plimentary mention of the work of the W.C.T. U. Bro. Alex. McKinnon's humorous reading, “Asking the Guvnor.” was nicely rendered. After the rendition of the “The Slave Ship” by Bro. F. H. Beer, in his own inimitable style, refreshments were passed around and met with great ecceptation. After the feast of good things provided, Bros. J. R. Davison anc li. Beer responded to encores and were followed by Prof. Earle in an instru- mental solo, at the conclusion of which the National Anthem brought the proceedings toaclose. The committee of management, Bros. G. H. Foster, John Ross and Roderick Matheson, are to be congratulated on the success of the soeial.

Hon. Mr. Foster replied that jot a dol- lar of the three per cent loan las come back.
Sir Richard Cartwright asked i; the Gov-
erument proposed to continue th» arrange- ment with Baring Brothers. Hon, Mr. Foster explained tha the Gov-

Canada & Newfoundland
A Phase of the Difficulty Pre- sented.
ee
Orrawa, March 19. Hon. Mr. Tupper, Minister of Marine, yesterday tabled a correspondence between the Dominion and Newfoundland Gov-
ernments in regpect to the issue of modus vivendi license. By order- in-council, dated llth May, 1888,
Canada suggested that the license fees col- lected by the two couatries should be equally divided. The proposal was accept- ed by tbe government of Newfoundland the day following by telegram from Gov- ernor Blake. At the end of the season the Canadian Government duly forwarded to Newfcundland the authorities’ statement of licenses issued during the season by Can- ada. But no such statement was received from the governmentof Newfoundlind.{The correspondence shows a gap from Septem- ber, 1888, until April 2ad, 1891, when Sir Charlies Tupper cabled the Minister of Ma- rine and Fisheries, suggesting that he should ask Sir James Winter, at St.Johns, to ascertain what number of licenses had been issued by Newfoundland during the seasons of 1888, 1889, 1890 and 1891. Sir James, in reply, cabled ; ** Unable to pro- cure information you ask; Government forbid officials furnish.”
