PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE

Debate on ‘the Draft Address |

Wepwyespay, April 19.

Hon. Mr. Gordon, who followed, con~ gratuletd the mover and seconder of the motion that the House go into commitie on the draft address up on the moderate tone of their speeches. He thought, however, that the mover had drawn !argely upon his imagination. The address before the House, Hon. Mr. Gordon proceeded to point out, was unique, There is a para graph in it which has no reference what» ever to the speech. Do the committee which prepared the address know more than the Government? Why did not the Government refer to the mission of our ambassador to England in the speech ? He is totally ignored. A former ambassa~ dor to London—a Captain Cowper—had made this p:ovince a bye-word for years, having taken up his jlodging in Wopping —a sailor’s boarding house. What, he asked, was the object of the last ambaseador’s visit? Hon, Mr. Gordon agreed with the paragraph refer- ring to Lord Minto and paid a tribute to that gentleman’s ability. Hethen epoke of the recent visit to this Province of Pro- fessors Robertson and Macoun, and said be did pot think the Minister of Agriculture should be thanked for their comieg here as it wasthe duty of these gentlemen to doasthey haddone. He would express his opinion upon the Hilleborough bridge when the matter came before the Hou-e, aud they had all the data. He believed that a railway to Murray Harbor must be buiit, and thought that if justice were done this Province the Dominion Government would build the bridg? in its entirety. The fisheries matter required much con- sideration. It is still an open questien, and the judgment ia not very clear. Speaking of tha road service he thought an improvement was greatly needed. He did not think, however, that the time had arrived forthe building of ste«l bridges. He thought we should all be thankful for long continued peace; but he failed to see how the country could be said to have en- joyed a year of prosperity. The lawyers end money-lenders may think in this way, but the farmers do not. Thousands of barrels of flxur and bushels of seed wheat are imported here, yet we beast that this is an egricultural country. There ‘s, hewever, no doubt as to the prosperi » of the Domivion at large. Sut this pros- perity ie due taS:r Jobn A. Macdonald who cast the bread upon the waters the benefit of which we are now reaping. Our condition may be thus described :

Men must work, Women mast weep ; When there’s little to varn Avd many to keep.

If we had the large amoust ef money the Goverument spends on interest to distribute among the farmers, prosperity would be enjoyed. ‘

Hon. Mr. Farquharson alse ecngratu. lated the mover and seconder i the Ad~ dress upon their speeches. The mover jid himself credit, and als» reflcted credits upon his district—which ranked wita.the most intelligent and prosperous ia the province. The chvice of the peo» ple of ths fine district was a good one. The hon member received the suppori ot

his own neighbors, the vote at his bom being 149 in his favor to 49 againet. his vote showed tnathe hai the co:

fidence ot the people who knew him best. He was certainly a vainanle acquisition t

thi. Legislaure. Althongh the Hons was meeting late this year it might ad- journ as early as it did last year. Of course the Opposition will complain. It istleir duty to do so. The Leader of

the Opposition attempts to eet our farmers against the money lenders. But the hon. gentlemen always conducts

h'meelf well, and thisis perhaps, only a digression, He hoped the session would be a ehort one The Public Accounts and Deparm ni | reports are all ready and will be tablec shortly. The Government is disposed to be coneiderate with the Opposition. Re-~ turns asked for will be furnished with all possible promptness and if the session is prolongued it will not be the fault of the Government. In regard to the statement of the Leader of the Opposition that the the eddrevs je unique as there is no refer~ ex.ein the speech to the ambassador’s visit to England — at some of our mem-~ bers read Tue Examiner and know how that paper referred to the matter. Every

thing that takes place cannot be dealt with in the spech. The fact is the opposition ie j-alous of what the Pro- vincial and Liberal Governments have done to promote the agricultural interests. The people approve of sending an ambas- sador to Great Britain. If the opposition condems sach action they will etand alone. Taking up the statement that the credit of the visit of Professors Robertson and Macoun did not belong to the Government orthe Minieterof Agriculture, he said that the fact was that these gentlemen came here on the invitation of the Govern- ment and by the kind permission of the Minister of, Agriculiure. The week they spent bere was one of meetings full to overflowing. Senator Ferguson had epoken in glowing terms of the gathering and their results. Professor Robertson said that he never saw such meetings as those held here. This is something to be proud of, Professor Macoun is a capable young man, but Professor Roberteon is head and shoulders over any man he ever heard of. He, the premier, in this House, wished to thank the Minister of Agriculture for what he had done in regard to these meet- ings. Hethought the Government at Ottawa, the Local Government and all in- terested in the visi: of these gentlemen,were to be congratulated upon the success which attended their efforts.

After recess the debate on the address was continued by Hon Mr. Farquabarson, Mr, Shaw, Mr. F. Peters, Mr. Camp) il. This morning the debate was con'inued by Mr. Campbell], Mr. Wise avd Mr. Mckinnon the later having the tor at one o'clock.
