Commercial Union.

STILL FURTHER 4. B. WARBURTON, ESQ., HON. D. FERGUSON AND HON. SENATOR HAYTHORNE.

An adjourned meeting of the Board of Trade was held last evening. There were present, Lewis Carvell . (President), John MacEachern (Secretary), L. C. Owen, D. Ferguson, L. H. Davies, W. L. Cotton, P. Blake. A. B. Warburton, D. Farquharson, Owen Comolly, <A. MeNeill, Walter Matheson, F. T. Newbery, G. E. Full, G. Toombs, F. H. Arnaud, Horace Has- zard, John Crockett, B. Balderston, F. L. Haszard, W. W. Clarke, W. W. Beer, F. W. Hyndman, D. McKenzie, John Me- Leod, ‘I. Handrahan, Geo. Peake, William Boyle, Hon. R. P. Haythorne.

A. B. Warsurron resumed the debate

on Mr. Ferguson’s resolution. He said that four objections had been raised against Commercial Union during the discussion, viz (1) That it would

endanger British connection; (2) Involve u loss of revenue; (3) Increase of taxation, (4) Imperil interests of other parts of Canada. In respect to the last objection he thought we should, while discussing the matter, regard Commercial Union only as it would atfect this Province, and take. it for vranted that other localities would look to their own special interests—thus obtain- ing a consensus of opinion which would be valuable. The danger of losing Canada was enlarged upon im the ,British Parliament, when Sir Robert Peel introduced his bill respecting the Corn Laws, On this ground ninety peers of the realm protested against

it. Still, Canada maintains her allegiance. Before the old Reciprocity Treaty was signed, leading men of Canada were threatening annexation; but after Reci- procity the annexation feeling died away. Reciprecity killed the annexation senti- ment; andhe believed that Commercial Union would not strain in any way the

ties which bind us to the Mother Country. Concerning the objection that we should lose $6,000,000 or $7,000,000 of revenue as a result of Commercial Union, Mr... War- burton argued that the superior geographi- cal position of Montreal would make her, under Commercial Union, a distributing point for the States on the south side of the (jreat Lakes as well as for the Provinces on the north, and that the Joss of revenue

derived from goods imported from the States would be fully made up _ by increased importations of goods and additional duties. If the receipts from taxation were po led, the result would be different; — but

the benefits to the country would appear in another way. In the latter case we should be in the position of adjoining estates with the line fence thrown down and a ‘‘ring fence” all around. The United States revenue from taxation in 1886 was $309,819, - 199; the Canadian revenue from taxation was $25,226,456,—being $5.26 in Canada against $5.28 in the States—a difference of two cents. The aggregate revenue from taxation of thetwo countries is $335,045, - 655. Deduét $12,000,000, the amount col- lected (by both countries) along the border which would be lost, and there will remain a balance of $323,045,655,—our. share of which would amount to $24,849,666, or just $376,790 less than we now collect.

Against this small loss we can set off the cost of keeping up the Customs line and

the cost of our fishery cruisers. It is, Mr. Warburton contended, questionable whether the United States can keep their tariff up to its present standard. They now have an immense surplus every year ;. at the present rate of decrease, the United States wil. not owe a dollar at the end of ten years-—and the American people will not permit their governmeyt to keep millions upon millions locked up in the Treasury vaults, and out of circulation. The Amer- ican tariff must of necessity be reduced,and may be assimilated with that of Canada. In conclusion, Mr. Warburton read the follow- ing definition of CommercialUnion by Mr. Goldwin Smith :

‘* It means Unrestricted Reciprocity, or, in other words, complete Free Trade in all pro- ducts—whether natural or manufactured— and at the same time a fall participation in all commercial advantages, such as the Fisheries and the Coasting Trade. It would mean no derogation whatever, as we under- stand it, from national sovereignity, national- ity autonomy. It would be simply an igreement between two nations to enjoy the advanteges of complete Reciprocity, from which each nation would be at liberty to re- tire after giving due notice, as in the case of any other Commercial Treaty, or our old Re- ciprocity Treaty itself.”

or

Ancup. McNett read the following re- solution of the Conference recently held at (Juebec :

‘** That, having reference to the agitation on the subject of the trade relations between the Dominion and the United States, this inter- Provincial conference, consisting of represen- tatives of all political parties, desires to record its opinion that ‘ Unrestricted Reciprocity’ would be of advantage to all the Provinces of the Dominion; that this conference and the people it represents cherish fervent loyalty to Her Majesty the Queen, and warm attachment to British connection; that this Conference is of opinion that a fair measure providing under proper conditions for ‘ Unrestricted Recipro- cal Trade Relations” between the Dominion and the United States would not lessen these sentiments on the part of our people, and on the contrary, may even serve to increase them, and would at the same time in connection with an adjustment of the fishery dispute, tend to happily settle grave ditticulties which have from time to time arisen between the Mother Country and the United States.”

Also, the following, from a letter of J. D. Edgar, M. P., to the Toronto Globe :—

‘* There is, | fear, considerable confusion of ideas as to one important aspect of the ques- tion, and to this I will now allude. The ad- vocates of commercial union have made fre- quent use of an expression, which has been seized upon by opponents, as disclosing a fatal objection to the scheme. Weare often told that unrestricted reciprocity would. sweep away all the customs houses upon the fron- tier. If that were to be done it seems clear, for several reasons, that.we-would have to agree upon a uniform customs tarift with the United States ‘against the rest of the world.’ In other words, the entire tariff legislation, of both countries, would be brought to a stand- still during the duration of the treaty; and it is scarcely conceivable that either Canada or the United States could arrive at a satisfac- tory uniform tariff to last for that period.”

, it is evident, Mr. MeNeill said, that difficulties are beginning to appear in the way of ** Commercial Union.”

Hon. Mr. Fercuson said the impert-

ance of obtaining a definition.of the scope |

and meaning of Commercial Union was nuw at all events, apparent. In his opinion the new fexiure, viz: ‘‘ pooling the Customs,”

THR _DATLY EXAMINER,

| was one which: should he very carefully

considered, As to Mr. Warburton’s argu-

DISCUSSION—-SPERCHES BY | ment drawn, from the geographical position of Montreal, it was to be

borne in mind

that the port of Montreal was closed during the winter season, and on this account New

York, Boston and other American ports would, under Commercial Union, as distributing centres for imports,

have a great advantage, for the channels of trade which imports would have to take in winter would naturally be followed in sum-

mer. Referring to the concluding remarks of Mr. Davies at the last meeting, viz: that a Comniission could frame the pro-

posed common tariff, Mr. Ferguson said

that a Joint Commissicn could, of course, settle the terms of the treaty ; but for the of raviewing the tariff year by

purpose , year, and of meeting the varying requirements of the. two countries, a mere commission would be insufficient. Any suggestions made by a Commission would be at the risk of being refused by Congress or the House of Commons ; and it would never do to run such risk in se important 4 matter.

The United States might be forced into a war. Other eventualities might arise on the part of either country necessitating the raising of invreased revenue. On the cther hand—as Mr. Warburton pointed out

the United. States may be forced to reduce her taxation. In any case Legis- lative authority will be required in the construction of a tariff under Commercial Union as well .as at present ; and therefore the scheme of Commercial Union imvolves the establishment of an International Chamber having Legislative functions. A fixed tariff fora term of years is an liv possibility. It would also evidenily be necessary, under the scheme, to lave al International Executive Department im the collection of the revenues ; and a Court for the decision of controverted points. The Court of either country could not, as Mr. Davies contended, settle points arising out of the operation of the Commercial Union trattic ; because the decisions would have to be made on a common basis. In respect to the favored Nations clause Mr. Ferguson referred (in reply to Mr. Davies) to the statement of Hon Mr. Chamberlain that Commercial Union would abro- vate the treaties which at present exist between Great Britain and other nations which have conceded the most favored nation privileges to Great Britain and her dependencies. He feared that the present discussion throughout Canada was not calculated to promote the negotiations now pending. The Americans very naturally argue that political union is wanted by those who advocate Commercial Union ; and they are not so likely to come to an agreement as they woula be if the question were not under discussion here. What we really want for our farmers

is the American market for our potatoes, sheep, horses, wool and fish. As for the fisheries, if they

are well protected against the Americans,

we can afford to pay the fish duties levied

by the States. Mr. Ferguson submitted

the following comparative statement

The difference shown by this comparative statemeut was not, in his opinion, so large that we ought to imperil our connec- tion with the Mother Country, for the sake of the additional profits which the increased trade under Commercial Unicn would give. It was to be remembered that the oats sent tothe States were largely re-shipped .for the British and European markets, that the Americans themselves do not want our oats, and that instead of sending them pork, they are now competing with us in our own markets in the face of a high duty. Mr. Ferguson read the following comparative statement of average prices of oats, potatoes and wool for the last six years of Reciprocity and the six whole years be-

Our prosperity does not all depend upon our trade with the United States; while we should lose a great deal if we lost our trade with Great» Britain. The consequences involved in Commercial Union should be very carefully weighed, and we should not be too hasty in coming to a conclusion re- specting it. We have the American market for our eggs—and will no doubt continue to ‘enjoy it. We cannot now sell the States either pork or oats, ant with our fisheries we have the screws in our hands by which we may be

the articles for’ which we really want the American Market. So that it is not neces- sary that we should hamper our trade with the rest of the world by entering into a Commercial Union with the States. _ ‘

lowing resolution, and moved the adjourn- ment of the meeting:

** Resolved, That while this Board warmly approves of Reciprocal Free Trade with the United States, on the broadest possible basis, it is not prepared, from the information before it, to endorse the proposed Commercial or Customs Union with the United States.”

— LETTERS TO THE EDITOR onlin taes The Seott Act and Perjury.

Sin, —CGreat efforts are being ‘made’ to explain away one serious charge against the Scott Act, pamely : That it is an incentive to perjury. In their desperation, advo- cates of the Act cite all manner of crime, theft and murder in particular, aud show that persons accused of theft and murder wit! commit perjury as well as the man accused of birtering a glass of wine or beer. This si) b+ivue; but let me remind the advocates ‘{.r the Scott Act, that a man accused of theft or murder, is allowed a fair trial. He is not required to criminate himself. The burden of proof is on the prosecution, and the accused is lead to rev- erence the law by which his guilt is @stab- lished, on becoming acquainted with its great principles of justice and fair play. How different with the Scott Act. Under its provisions the aceused is cribbed, and confined in his defence—often found guilty on the most worthless testimony and sent to jail as a felon.

In support of this I would cite Section 115 of the Act. The witness, who may be a pro- fessional and paid informer—any worthless or violent fellow whe hopes. for reward or has some mean spite to gratify—is not required to depose to the fact of his per- sonal or certain knowledge any heresay which satisfies the mind of a justice or mag- istrate, perhaps a fanatical and unreason- able Scott Act man, is enough. The guilt of the accused is then to be presumed, unless he can rebut what the framers of the Act are pleased to call *‘evidence.” ‘The accused then, in a British Court of Jugtice, is put on his defence even before the prose- cution have established what any lawyer would consider the faintest shadow against him.

Is it any wonder that a man thus ham- pered in his defence prefers perjury to unprisonment. i

The Scott Act is a libel on English law and justice. It puts a premium on perjury and malicious prosecutions, and sets at defiance the fundamental principles of our law.

Blunder or Bigot.

Srr,—In to-day’s Examiner | observe some contributions under the heading of ‘¢ Varia.” The writer of those items kindly informs us that ‘‘ Henry Ward Beecher is a well-known name on this side of the Atlantic.” Your correspondent is also pleased to state that he (Mr. Beecher) ‘‘was the minister of a large building im Brooklyn.” | Minister of a ‘‘ building,” indeed. Pray, what kind of a building was this? Is this phrase amere. blunder or a petty piece of despicable bigotry and impertinence? It may be surmised that the writer of ‘‘ Varia” knows that the’ building: in which Mr. Beecher ministered with such ability and Catholicity was set apart for Christian worship. Does he not know that the proper English name for such a building ia a Church? Then why not call ita Church? Possibly your cor- respondent is so hopelessly narrow as to claim that the term church should be exclusively applied toa place of worship used by such as observe the same rites and acknowledge the same ecclesiastical authorities as he does himself. If so he lacks not only charity, but knowledge also. Even in England, where there is a State Church, it is not properly called the church but the ‘* Church of England,” and it is sodesignated in Acts. of Parlia- mént, as the Presbyterian Church is desiz- nated the ‘* Church of Scotland.” 1 imay here just rejaind * Varia” that if he went to Scotland he would prebably find himself a dissenter! The best lexicograpKers, with the sanction of the best English writers, apply the term Church to a place set apart for Christian worship. Aud if this is a ¢or- rect definition in England, surely: it nyust be acknowledged that in this country, where there is no State Church, where ali bodies of Christian believers are equal before the law, nv sect or denomination has any right to arrogate to itself exclusively the title of ** Church.”

I will make no comment. upon the detrac- tions and aspersions that follow in this item of ** Varia.” The few words I have cited betray the animus of the writer; but I may be allowed to add that no better instance of the living ass kicking the dead lion could readily be found.

The Scott Act Canvass.

Srr,—Some of the metheds pursued by canvassers for the Scott Act are just a little peculiar. This is one ofthem: Two canvassers meet afriend. They accost him and one of the canvassers taps him familiarly on the shoulder and remarks, ‘* Well, So-and-so, you've gof to give us a vote for. the Scott Act this time!” The

| dictatorial manner assumed — by

give us a vote all right.” ** No, indeed, I won't; the Scott Act is a faree and you know it as wellasI do.” The canvassers look nonplussed, but are determived to get the vote somehow. Finally the canvasser who has been doing the talking allows a smile te meander across his placid counten-

** Well, you can get all the liquor you

you not vote for us?’ *‘ L know (can get j all I want unde? the Scott Act,” responds the canvaesed, *tand always could, but I prefer to take what little I do in an open, manly way, without making any bones about it.” ~The canvassers drop the voter like a ‘Shot potato,” and go in search of a more susceptible victim. Another favorite method, | especially when the yoter is rich, isto approach him this wise: .** Youcan safely vote for the Act; you are rich and if you don’t care to order your supplies from a local dealer, you can get them by rail or steamer from Montreal or Halifax.” This.is how the battle is being waged, hew the “‘ original and only ” temperance party are canvassing voters for an Act under which they gravely inform voters ‘‘they can get all they want,’ Further comment is unnecessary.

Osrrcary—William Bearisto, Ksq,, a well known and respected resident 6f Summerside, died on Thursday evening. From the Agri- culturist we learn that Mr. Bearisto was born in Malpeque, en the 18th of November, 1808, and had completed his seventy ninth year only a few days before his death. He was the son of Mr. George Bearisto, and the eld- est of thirteen children, of. whom three bro- thers and five sisters survive him. He had not long attained to man's estate betore he was preferred to stations of honor and respon- sibility. Twice he served as Sheriff of Prince County, and so long ago as _ 1842, he represented. his native district in the. House of Assembly. About the year 1850, he removed from Malpeque . to Muddy Creek, and thenée to Summerside in 1864; where he conducted business as a com- mission merchant until a short time ago, A few years since.he was stricken with paralysis but recovered sufficiently to move about until six mouths ago when signs.of a general break- ing up became evident. For the past eleven weeks he had been contined to his bed, where, tended by loving and cheerful hands, he patiently awaited the summons cf his God. His funeral, which took place on Saturday last, waslargely attended. We sympathize with his relatives and friends in their bereave- ment. ‘a4
