TTAWA . CORRESPONDENCE.

The question of deepening the St. Law- rence Canals was brought before the House by Col. Denison, who moved that inasmuch as the Sault Ste. Marie Canal is to have a depth of 20 feet, the other canals should be deepened accordingly. It is en- tirely a matter of cost—if you have the money to spend, the project is quite feas- ible. One authority says 250 wmillions would not do it. The Minister of Rail- ways and Canalsjumped on the scheme with both feet. He contended that a 20- foot waterway would permit only a few of | the vessels coniiag to Montreal to ascend any further, and “hat, under any circum- stances, it was cheaper for them to dis- charge their cargoes at Montreal. For a vessel drawing «nly 26 feet of water, a depth of 22 or 25 feet would be required, and the locks would have to be lengthened and widened also. The water in Lake Ontario would be lowered and every har- boron that lake would require to be dred Aside from the cost of deepen- ing the harbors, the scheme would cost from 130 to 140 millions of dollars.

Mr. Coatsworth brought up his motion in favor of @ reduction of letter postage from 3 to 2 cents. Sir Adolphe Caron said the reduction would involve the loss of $800,000 a year revenue, and the country eould not afford it. The matter will be brought up again for discussion.

The duty on coal oil occupied the attention of the House almost exclusively last Tuesday. As your readers are already aware, Mr. Foster announced tbat a further reduction of one and one-fifth cent an imperial gallon would be made. Mr. Davies made a lengthy speech on the sub- ject complaining of the oppregsive nature of the duty, and of the extortienate prices consumers were obliged to pay, particul- arly in the Lower Provinces. He asserted thatthe much advertized Canadian 15 cent oil was unfit to burn, and that the only Canadian product fit to use was the water white, which was sold to dealers at three quarters to one cent less th»n the cost of American oil including the duty.

Mr. Foster admitted the strength of Mr. Davies’ arguments, the highness of the present duties, andthe demand for a reduction. He narrated the measures of relief given last year, and claimed that in conrequence Canadians paid much less for their kerosene, and to prove the asser-" tion read a list of towns, giving the “hefore and after” retail prices. [n almost every case, there was a large reduction. A prin- cipal reason for keeping up the tariff was to prevent that gigantic monoply, the “Standard Oil Company,” getting control of the Canadian wells and of Canada’s vast oil regions in the east and west as yet not opened up. The moment the oil duty waa taken off, Canada’s whole future oil development would depend on the Standard Oi} Company.

An is:teresting feature of the discussion was the little breeze between Mr. Lister and hie colleagues on the Opposition benches. Mr. Lister is a Free Trader, but he represents an oil district, and, of course, he is will'ng to give any amount of protection to an industry in which his con- stituents are interested. Indeed, he did not hesitate to tell Messrs, Casey, Mcaful- len, Gilmour and others of his colleagues who were denouncing the duty and depre- ciating the Canadian product, that they did not know what they were talking about,

By the way, if any of your readers were to talk about kerosene up here, or go into a store to purchase some they would pruba- bly be stared at. Kerosene ia called coal oil up here, and never anything eles.

Last week I told you about the fight the Opposition made to have witnesses before the Public Accounts Committee examined on oath. At the meeting of that commit- tee last Tuesday, Mr. Joseph Pope testified regarding his account fur expenses as Secretary to the British Agent before the Behring Sea Commission at Paris last summer. McMullen & Co. thought they smelled some boodle in the transaction and they were bound to get to the bottom of it. I need hardly tell your readers who Mr. Pope is, but it is so long now since he left the Island (22 years) that anew gen. eration has sprung up “who know not Joseph.” He is theelder son of the late

the old chief's death, was the trusted friend and Secretary of Sir John Mac- donald, and, it may be said, a member of his family. He it ie to whom Sir Jobn entrnated the writing of his biography, a work which is about completed and will appear during the ensuing summer. Well, they put Mr. Pope on his oath, and he testified that before he accepted Sir Hib- bert Tupper’s offer to accompany him to

Paris, an Order in Couneil was pasted, declaring that he was to receive during his absence a “living allowance” of $10 a day. Under

this agreement, and following the prece l- ent established in o her cases, he charged $106 for each day that he was absent, in- cluding the 14 days that he was on the steamer crossing the Atlantic going and re- turning. Sir ‘Hibbert Tupper approved the charge, and it was allowed and paid. The Auditor-General took exception to the charge for the 14 days, but as it had been paid to. Messrs. Courtney, Sedgewick and others, on similar missions, and as it was authorized by Council, Mr. Pope felt justi- tied in charging the amount and putting the money in hia pocket. Mr. Pope’s ex- amination was very satisfaction, leading members of the Opposition expressing themmelves to the effect that he had done nothing te which exception could be taker. I have seen but one Grit newspaper’s ob- servation on the matter, but f hear that that truly religions and only reliable daily, the Montreal Witness, announced’ in display type that Mr. Pope had been order- ed to refund the amount. The Grit news- paper which I mention as having seen. is

Mr. Charlton’s Sabbath Observance Bill has received its second reading. He spoke the whole of Wednesday afternoen in its

br. Weldon also secured a second read- ing for his bill to disfranchise voters who have taken bribes. He urged the import- ance*of providing some such restriction in the interests of purity in elections. The measure was. not pttnitive; there was nothing in it to degrade or punish ; it simply provided that a man who takes a bribe shall not, for a term of years there- after, have a voice in the contro! of the State.

Mr. McCarthy seems to have deserted Parliament; he has not been in the House since he made his great speech on the tariff, and ran away without voting. His pet measure to abolish separate schools azd the use of the French language in the Northwest has been called a number of times, but allowed to stand on account of his absence. There are a great many

rsons who are beginning to think Mr. MeCarthy 2 Lumbug, and that he is only disappointed that his bill has not been dropped off the order paper during his absence, so that he could make a bow! about it through the country. But the Government are not going to give him the chance.

Thursday, being the Feastof the Aween- sion and a statutory holiday, there wis no seasion of either House. ’

On Friday very considerable progress was made in committee on the tariff reso- lutions.

Rockcliffe Park opened last week for the season with a number of new attractions, and it is extensively patronized every afternoon, Theelectric cars carry you to Rockcliffe from all ‘parts of the city for only 5 cents, and when you get there you can strol] abont under the trees or go down to the shore, or go out boating, or get in the Merry-gc-Round, which is worked by electricity, as is also @ large hurdy-gurdy which gives you “After the Ball” and a number of other favorite airs. At this season of the year from Rockliffe you can look across the river ‘to the village of Gatineau Point, which is almost under water and, within a few days the inhabitants will be seeking drier quarters till such time as the river goes down.

One can board the car at the magnificent Chaudiere Falls, and for 5 cents be carried 43 miles to Rockcliffe Park, through the rery heart of the city. Returning you can take another car at the park, and for an- other five cents you can go thé Exhibition grounds, a distance of five miles in the opposite direction. — On a aweltering hot, dusty day in summer, it is most refresh- ing to get on # car and go whizzing along. You very soon get coel. Last Saturday there were 12,000 visitors to Reckclifte.

In the Police Court Jast week a city doctor was fined $20 and costa for not re porting a case of scarlet fever.

Notwithstanding theresult of the pleb- iscite in Ontario and the ovetwheliming temperance sentiment which we are teld prevails, the Mowat Government appear wnable to see it. The License Comiic- sioners for Ottawa last week granted 71 hotel, 36 shop and four saloon licenees— & cut on the previcus year of four. But it is probable that theee four will bes granted yet. The Ontario Government controls the licensing system. The city has nothing to do with it. All license feee go into the Provincial Treasury, and they form a very considerable item. There is a vast number of ram shops in Ottawa which should be closed up—regular vile dens, which exist not for the accommodation of travellers, but simply and solely for sel- ling liquer. But even if every tavern and saloon in Ottawa were closed, it would take only a few minutes to walk over to Hull, which is in the Province of Qaebec, and get all you want.

The statement which has appeared in certain newrpapers that it isthe inten- tion of the Government to cut @dewn the appropriation for experimental farm work and to reduce the staff, commencing with the new fiscal year, is entirely incorrect. Hon. Mr, Angers recognizing the import- ance of the work .which the farm is doing, will endeavour to secure an increased ap- propriation, with the object of sending out more members of the staffito attend farin- ers’ meetings in different parts of the conn- try during the next winter. As indicating the vast amount of work which is done at the farm inthe way of supplying infor- mation, it may be stated that in 1893 25,- 657 letters were received at the C-ntra! establishment.
