'SPRECH OP HON, JOBN -COSTIGAY,

THE EFFECTS OF HIS IRISH SYMPATHY RESOLUTIONS,

Better Feeling Prevailing !

Mr. Blake’s Hypocrisy Exposed !!

In the course of his speech at the Ottawa Liveral-Conservative demonstration, Hon, John Costigan, the new Minister of Inland Revenne, and the leader of the Irish Catho- ies, said; * * °* 1 have feld you already that the Reform par:y Las two strings to their bow on many subjects, and there is, it appears to mte, a very great and very unncevseary fuss made by them in reference to a question which I have not yet touched upon. We sre tuld that the Irish people of this country should and will no longer support the Conservative party, and. that their true interests lie in attaching them- selves to the party of which the Hon. Mr. Blake is the leader. Gentlemen, l am my- self an lrishman—(Lond and prolonged cheering)~ and if as an Jrishman I cou'd belicve that our interests were not safe in the Conservative party, I should not hesi- tate fora moment to Jeave its ranks, but before making so important a departure, I am bound to ask what guarantee can the Reform party give that the interests of my friends wou'd be made safe in their keeping (Loud cheers.) I listened in the House of Commons to the very able and eloquent speech delivered by the Hon. Mr. Biake, and am ready to give him every credit for the effort, althongh not prepared to go so far as to believe, as some of his devoted friends have claimed, that it created a revo- lution on the other side of the Atlantic, and made impressions and produced effects which the efforts of O'Connell aud Burke and THE LONG LINE OF IRISH PATRIOTS

had failed to accomplish; but while I am ready to accord to Mr. Blake every credit which he werits, [ must in justice accord still greater credit te the leader of the Gov- ernment and to the Liberal-Conservative party, witheut the support of whese repre sentatives in Parliament, Mr. lake’s speech would have been worse than waste paper. | am sorry to say that there are traces in the oration of the leader of the Opposition that he was not, on that occa sion, altogether uninflugneed by political considerations; he expressed his regret, among other things, that my resolutions were not strong enough. It is jerfee ly true, gentlemen, that they were not couched in such terms as to create hostility or cause them to be voted down by mem- bers, which probably would have better suited the purposes of Mr. Blake, who, it would do no very grave injustice to sup- pose was

ACTUATED IN HIS POLICY BY MOTIVES

more than hy atrne desire for the good of Treland. Irishmen in their struggle for Home Rule and self-government, in their agitation for their privileges which we fully enjoy in this country were fully satisfied with these resolutions. Nay, more, we had only to lock at the expressions of opinion by the Irish press and public in order to be assured that they were thankful for them. (Cheers.) Gentlemen, at the time ] maved ,those resolutions, I believed I was laying down the planks of a platform upon which Scotchmen and Irishmen in the country could siand shoulder to shoulder. (Loud cheers,) I could, had I chosen, have iad the cause of Ireland voted down— (loud cheers)-and the leader of the Gov- ernment truly said at the time that he was influenced as 1 was influenced, above all considerations, by the justice of the cause which we had at heart. As I have said before, I am perfectly willing that the Reform party should have due credit for their vote upon that subject. I am not willing that it should be permitted to go ail over the country uncontradicted that their desires or their influence in this matter were of paramount importance. It is not necessary to point out to you that

THE POSITION OF THE REFORM PARTY IN PARLIAMENT SINCE ]878.

has not been such as to enable them to take the credit of passing any resolution or any measure whatever. I noticed that the *-Globe” the other day had an article on ‘**Blake’s Irish Resolutions.” Well, now, they were not qnite his resolutions. Mr, Blake, in his speech, informed the House that he had prepared resolutions upon that very subject, and would have moved them in the House of Commons had he not been called away. Well, 1 am forced to this conclusion that, if Mr. Blake, with all his ability, had framed and kept in his desk a set of resolutions to move upon the Irish question without consulting a single Irish- man on the strongest side of the House, he did not intend to carry them. (Applause). He was trying to make capital out of it. There is no other interpretation. . . , . Perhaps he knew that our resclutions interfered with their political game, and that they were framed in a manner acceptable to men on both sides of the House, without any reference to politics at all. With regard to that question I have only one word more to say—that the reso- lutions were framed with the desire of get- ting an expression of the opinion of the people of the country through its Parlia- ment in favor of ivstitmtions similar to those of this country—(cheers)—and in favor of the release of the prisoners at. that time. They wére framed in a spirit.of fairness and modetation, and-with a sincere

seen the last I believe they have done good in this country THEY RAVE CREATED A BETTER FEELING, and have led many who never thought ov the subject before to look upon Irishmen ;more kindly and with more sympathy, and ito belive that if the same rights and pri- vileges existed in Ireland that we possess, | the Irish people would be more prosperous athome. I know it has had this effect. I have received letters already from. people ‘in lveland asking about our great North- West, and stating that they see so many | pamphlets that they are sometimes in doubt as to whether they shall leave their native land to seek homesin Canada. The resolu- tionshave brought this country to the notice | of the people of Ireland already ,and given it ;@ promincnee it never had before. The Jrish lock with warm sympsthy to this ‘country. ‘They uever expected such en /opinion would be ex;ressed in Canada, and it in the past they entertained a warmer feeling for the United States than for Canada, all that has gy -ne by, .and nothing has bronght about this change in feeling more than the passing of these resoiuti: ns by Parliament. (Cheers.) I must goa liitle further. I to'd you that I would not give op the old party until I knew what the new ones were. Let us see what the Opposition would do if they were in power. That is THE PTACE TO TEST POLITICAL PARTIES

Tis easy for the Oppesition to make pro- fessions, J want to know what they will do when they are in power. In their cam- paign sheets the Opposition had given great prominence to the question of the disallow- ance of Provincial Acts and the preroga- tives of the local legislatures. Whet is the record of those gentlemen un that qnes- tion? I will teil you. The Conservative Government were in power before I had to bring forward the New Brunswick school question, The geatlmen who were then, as they are now, in Opposition, expressed the greatest sympathy, and said everything to encourage me. They said if they were in powerthey wouldsetile the question in ten minutes. I moved

a resolution declaring it was the duty of the} Wermonth ateebk:

Government te advise Hie Excellency to disallow certain Aéts passed in amendment of that school law by the New Brunswick Legis.ature. These gentlemen voted with me toaman in favor of disallowance. I do not condema them for it; I did it my- self; I think it was the right thing to do, I wa: ted to know WHETHER THEY WERE SINCERE

in it or not. Before eight months went round a cliange took place; they came into power. They had declared by their votes that it was the duty of the Government te disallow these Acts; we said, ‘‘it was their duty, it is your duty also.” They said, “Oh, that is quite a different thing.” What did they do? When the ques- tion was pressed home upon them, after Mr. Devlin, who represented the city of Montreal, made a_ very eloquent speech on that question, appealing to his friends to support that motive, and after several others had spoken, Mr. Mac- kenzie, finding that my motion would pass that night and he would be left in a minor. ty, adjourned the Honse. A caneus was held ; the gentlemen from my province who had pledged themselves to stand by my resolution swallowed their words next day and voted for a motion declaring that the Parliament of Canada had nothing to do with the question at all. (Cheers). 1 ask myself whether I can take the professions of these men now for more than they were worth at that time, There was another test of the liberality of those men.

THEY TALK ABOUL BEING THE EXPONENTS OF LIBERAL IDEAS AND PRINCIPLES,

When they were in power they introduced a bill affecting Prince Edward Island, by which they ehanged the franchise of that province. There were two sets of franchise, and they introduced a bill here to adopt the one which it was well known would very seriously effect the Catholic vote in that country. I appeakd to some of the Island members and asked them if they knew what was going on, but they were too faithful supporters of the Government to trouble themselves about it or ask them to change their policy. Fortunately when it went to the Senate, it was so monstrous, so unfair and se upjast for men calling themselves liberal, that it wasthrown out of the Senate. For my own part, I have no reason to believe that by going over to the Reform party the interests of the people to whom I belong would be any better or as well served as they are at present under a Conservative Government. (Cheers.) I de not ask for special favors or privileges for myself or in the name of my countrymen. We ask to be treated as other men—we ask for a fair field and no favor. Give us a fair chance in this country ; that is all we want or al! that we deserve. (Tremendous cheering).
