and the States. But it should not be for-

tten that Congress is merely the breath

tT if pubue opin I

a yn, and that public opinion

in the States continues to be dead against

the free import into the States of agricul- tural produce. In proof of this statement we clip the following summing up of ‘the situation,” from the last number of the American Farn eT =

“Gut of « population of 60,000,000 there ure probably about 21,000,000 who earn wages and live by work. Ineluded in this

int is something over 9,000,000 engaged in

sgricultural pursuits, and it appears that we |

have no other single industry that employs sid furnishes a living for so many of our people. In fact, this one industry feeds all the people, and no other industry can live withoat it. Here, then, we see that we have n this country more than 40,000,000 people living without earning any wages, oat most of them live directly or indirectly off the earn- ings of those who toil, and they, with all the dealers and traders, etc., are dependent on the success of the agriculturist and the protection of that interest. Then it is proper for us to first examine this most important of all indus. tries, and see what dangers threaten. Now, what the farmer wants first is a good home inarket for all hissarplas product. This can- not be assured while we import in one year more than $69,000,000 of food and live stock, not inc\uding coffee, tea, sugar and molasses. Why honid we import inte our country about $3,- 000,000 worth of vegetables, being cabbage from Holland, potatoes from Scotland, pota- toes, beans and peas from Canada? If the tarming interest is what we hear claim for it, then is it proper for us to import $1,200,000 and $9,000,000 worth of bread- stuffs and 20,000,000 dozen eggs, partly from Denmark and Sweden? We think it is bad

worth of hay,

policy. The farmer needs to be cared for first, last and all the time, in order that other industries may thrive with him and good wages be paid to manufacturing operatives

“8 thee go on turning our vast resources from raw material into that which is necessary for and safety in peace or war, Diversitied farming is our only hope and safe anchorage at this time, and in it is the whole | business. Let the diversified interests be } built np from our own raw material and means | a hand, aud the people who are engaged in| the work will cousume all the agriculturist produces, the market will be at home, and | the nation will go on in prosperity, which is | something that no nation has yet done with- out diversified interest.”

our welfare

So long as the farmers of the Republic | continue to regard the matter in this way it would be madness for Congress to admit | the products of Canada to free competition with those of the States ; and it is folly for | our farmers to place any coutidence what- ever 1) the Opposition politicians who con- | tend that Recipr ity will be obtained if! ouly they are p.aced in power at Ottawa,

not only room but positive need for in- creased accommodation for the increased traftic.” Refraining from saying anything of the new route’s military facilities, as ob- vious, he points cut the advantages it will offer for mails, passengers and light traftic ; how it will open up canada, including British Columbia, and the whole Pacific to British trade, bring us nearer to our kins- men in Australia, and give an alternative trade and mart route that will be simply in- valuable in case of a European war.

And the London Times concludes a strony leader in defence of the mail subsidy with the followin words :—

** But, after all, the question is not one of speed or money alone. It may be frankly ad- mitted that, as long as we have the uninter- rupted command of the Mediterranean and the Suez Canal, the new route confers no | postal advantage upon this ceuntry which is | worth £45,000 year. The arrangement must ibe looked at as a whole. It secures us an ilternative route to the East which would be of extreme value in case of war for the con- veyance of mails, troops and munitions of war Sir George Campbell thinks that we have a better alternative reute to the East by way of the Cape. Probably he is right, so far as | communication with India is concerned But j the case is different with regard to the China seas and our possessions there. Then the ad. dition to our armed fleet in a quarter of the

} |

world where we should be sure to | have warm work in the event of a jwar with Rassia is a most important ad- vantage to have secured. The new contract

with the Canadian Pacific railway gives us a direct strategical line of communicasion stietching across the world, and yet depend- ent upon the forbearance of no foreign power whatever. The new highway runs over no | foreign territory; it threads no inland seas. | Lt strikes at once across the open ocean, and, jafter traversing the Queen’s dominions in | America, finishes its course upon the open ocean once more. To grudge the inhabitants jof the Dominion any benefits which may jaccrae to them from the Government subsi- dies argues « singularly parochial spirit. They have placed within our reach a grand oppor- tunity of binding together the eastern and vestern extremities of the empire. The Can. }adian Pacific railway is a work for which the Canadians, and the Canadians alone, have found the money. Yetitis a truly imperial work, and the Home Government would be acting unworthily in declining to assume an an interest in so great an undertaking, with all its resulting strategic advantages.”

CORDIAL MEETING BETWEEN THE | AND HIS CHIEFS.

MONARCH

A San Francisco despatch says: Advices from Apia describe the return of King Malietoa as follows.: The Gerihan gunboat Wulf arrived in the harbor on the after- noon of August 11. When the vessel came to anchor Maliceta was seen standing on the deck. The flag of the returning mon- arch was at once hoisted on shore, and hearty cheers were given by the American and English residents. Magna Asi and the king’s brother, Moli, who was exiled with him, were also on the Wulf. No canoes were allowed to approach, but about dark the king and chiefs were taken on shore with Dr. Stubel, German Consul General. Whites had assembled at the spot where the landing was made. When the boat touched the beach Dr. Stubel sprang ont and assisted Malietoa to land once more upon his native shore. The king was taken to Folus house, where he was followed by a number of people. The meeting between Malietoa and his chiefs was most affecting; the women fell on their kaees and kissed his hands, and the whole party, including the king, were weeping all the time. The greatest expressions of joy were heard, and all present ex- tended sympathy to the monarch who had been carried off by the Germans and landed first at the Cameroons, one of the most unhealthy shores in the world, and taken from there to Hamburg a steer- age passenger, and then exiled on an island in the Marshal! group. All of the returned

| party give the highest praiseto Mr. Mor-

gan, the United States Consul at Marshall Islands, and declare that had it not been for his assistance they would have suffered heavily. About an hour after Malietca had arrived at the house, Mataafa, who had been reigning during his absence, arrived and greeted his relative most cordially. Malietva seemed to be a careworn man and

broken down in health. The white resi- ;

dents present drank the health of the two monarchs, and an invitation was given to attend an impromptu ball. The greatest good will existed between the two kings. Among those who cailed during the even- ing was the U. 8. Vice Consul, Blacklock, who was heartily received by both. On the following day Malietoa went to Ma-

the other eminent Brooklyn divine, T. De | taafa’s house, where he was received with a

The American schooner Lendsueazy, lying in the harbor, hoisted Malietoa’s flag on the day of his return. No formal acknowledgment of this was made by the Sophia or Wulf. There was no American or British man-of-war in the harbor at the time.
