OTTAWA LETTER
An Interesting Budzet of News,
IMPERIAL TRADE RELATIONS,
(Special correspondence of The Examiner )
Since you heard from me last week there has been little or no improvement ’in the weather which continues cold and dismal with high winde, while everything is in a very backward state. When I say every- thing I may aa well be understood as mean- ing parliamentary business also, for the! Grita were nothing if not obstructive last week. They were worse, they were ugly, and they seem bound to keep the work back as long as possible. Every few days we have speculations as to the length ot the session. Just now the general ides is that it will be close on Dominion Day before we get clear of here. In that case it; will be necessary for me to send for an extra quantity of Hickey & Nicholson's celebrated weed, trusting to its soothing in- tluences t» enable me to bear up against the infi:ction of another sessicn in hot weather. It is not at all extraordi- nary that ** Hick and Nick” goes only a short way with me here when I re- collect the mumber of friends | have. Everybody inakes a claim of friendship on me when | have a supply of that brand. They don’t know much about P. E 1. so when I tell them this tobacco comes from the Island, the poor innocents imagine it ig grown there, as well as manufactured, and as **Where ignorance is bliss,” &c., I let them think so. Commodore We sh was complaining the other day of being out of sorts, and that he was getting old and that sort of thing. I was taking him seriously until he asked me if | had any ‘Hickey & Twist,” when that explained the whole business. He had run out of his favorite tobacco and that waa what was the matter with him.
On Monday,in answer to Mr. McMullen, Sir John Thompson said that the report «f
| been received by the Government, and it was therefore impossible to state when it would be laid before the House.
Col. MeNeill’s motion in favor of prefer- ential trade with Great Britain occupied the rest of Monday’s sitting. The motion wa? in the following words :
ies in the way of the proposition before th: Heuse, Those who had studied the question knew that befcre such a chango couid tak. place public opinion wou'd need to alter great y in Great Bricain and economic conditions vould aiso need to be changed in the circum stances and apportionments of trade, but the gigantic character of the undertaking which was to revolutioniz: sentiment on the other side was the best warrant for the motion
We should not be discouraged if thie change did not take place quickly, Wirst of all the freee trade sentiment in the old country had to be over
come. This was not an vnsurmountable diffi
culty, however. He believed the feeling in Great Britain was changing. Free trade was ac longer looked upon as an irrefutable pric» ciple, divine in its origin and never to be de
parted f.om. Forces working from within and without might induce the people of G:eat Britain to consider whether it was to con- ‘inue an abstract free trade idea or whether larger intercsats did not coll upon the-=m to re- vise their opinion to the advantage of the Empire of which they were at the same time the heart and the head. It did not fcl- low that because they were adop’ing this policy they were going iu for free trade, but ‘lLhough they were not going to destroy the industries that had been brought into bei: g by & wise and enlightened policy in this country, it was yet true that competition was uecessaty to balance well applied protection and if we were to have competition it would not be a bad thing for us to have it in the caso of a country that would grant mo compensat- ing advantages,
The most favored nation clause, which waa* contained in treaties between England and ocher countries, did not constitute an insupe:« able obstacle, because countries now changed thcir trade policies more frequently than forme r- iy and took care that they should be able to exercise more freedom than they would enjoy under the old time treaties with clauses of long date. As ‘o the possibility of retali tory tariffs from the other nations of the world as aguinst tue differential treatment gives the colonies in the British markets, Mr. Foster
Watson arose and, by way of amendment, moved that binder twine should bo placed on the free list. It was now a little after d o'clock, and the debate on this everlast- ng question continued till half an hour fier midnight, when Mr. Watson’s amend- nent was snewed under ty a vote of 107 to 63, a government majority of 44 There was nothing new elic'ed during the discus- sion; it was the same old assertions and irguments which we heard last summer ad nauseam.
When the House met on Wednvesii, Col. Tisdale moved fora return of ail payments made to permanent clerks for extra work done oy them in their own department or in any ther from 1874 te 1878 inelnsive. In making his motion the Colonel referred to ‘he great vatery which bad been made by the Op port ion last session about perm snent clerks r. ceiving extra pay, and how they magnified an ir- regularity into a fraud, of which they had not scrupled to charge the Government with coguizsuce. He had been investigating a ittle on his own account and he had found enough to satisfy himself that similar ir- regularities had pri wailed in every year of the Mackenzie Administration, and he adduced figures ia evidence. The departments in which these irregularities prevailed were the loterior (of «hich Hon. David Laird and Hon. David Mills were the heads) Finance, Customs. Post Office, Receiver General, Public Works, Goveroor-General’s Secretary, Secretsry of State and Inland Revenue, and the grossest and largest irregularities of «| took place in the Finance Department which, all the time, was under the control of Sir Richard Cartwright, He produced the names f four clerks by wav of illustration. W. L. Orde received $1,668; J. Barry $922; T. F. Walters $516; and H.J. Morgan $685—a rotal of $3,791. In the Receiver General's fice between 1875 and 187, $21.626 were paid for extra work, the great bulk of which, he believed, went to permanent clerks, but the public accounts gave no explana‘ivs, no details, not even nemes of recipients, This information was what he wanted to get. The

requirements, Taking all these difficulties into consideration, and not looking at the subject in a rosy light at all, he believed that when the matter was taken into consideration it would be found that these obstacles could be overcome without any danger to the executive part of the Empire, ot to the de» pendenciés themselves. He waz, therefose, in favor of the motion and he wiched it to go as the voice of Canada to Great Britain.
When the vote was taken Mr. Davies amendment w 8 rejected by 98 to 64, Mr. MeNeill’s motion adop’ed by 97 to 63
Before adjournment Mr. Davies rose and said: ‘Before you adjourn I wish to cali your

Col. McNeill supported his motion in a lengthy speech, well supplied with facts and figures. ‘Lhe Colonel is an Irishman and is better known as one of the ** Noble Thirteen.” He and Mr, Davies studied law together in London twenty-five years ago. I cannot say that he has a brogue : he speaks in a very high key, uses ex:el- lent language. is a thorough gentleman
bea ‘‘hustler” were he not handicapped by a stiff leg,which impedes his locomotion. He was seconded by Mr. Desjardines, of L’Islet, and supported by Mesers. Hazen, Skinner, Hugh John Macdonald, Davin, Kenvy, Foster and Thompson, while the Opposition were represented by Messrs. Gilmor, Watsoo, Davies and Chariton. Mr. Davies.moved in amendment that the mo- tion be amended to read :
** That inasmuch as Great Britain admits the products of Canada into her ports free of duty, this House is of the opinion that the present scale of duties enactea on goods mainly imported from Great Britian should be reduced.”
Mr, Foster, who spoke before Mr. Davies moved his amendment, made a splendid speech. He said that although it would be a good thing for Canada to have reason- ably good trade relations with the country to the south of us, if such a proposition as that embodied in the resolution could be brought about, he did not believe the fu- ture of Canada, its progress and develop- ment depended on either one or the other. The proposition he wished to lay down as firmly as he could was that it was not be- cause Canada was in extremis that she re- quired either one or the other. Her future was not closed, nor was her pros- perity in doubt. He dissented from the doctrine frequently urged in this country, that Canada was being hemmed in or re- stricted in her trade relations, which were being continually drawn tighter, and there- fore she was in a position which arrested progress in any direction. Lo king at the United States, that country had always had tariffs against Canada from the year 1866, but such were the relations between the two countries that un- less a prohibitory tariff was adopted Canadian goods would continue to find consumption across the line. Referring to the West Indies, he said the facts did not bear out the allegation that we were restricted in that direction. We were really in a better position than for- merly. With regard to Great Britain, the market in that country was as free to us as ever, and presented a better opening as our products became better known. The excellence of our products was making for them a favorite place and an almust unlim- ited field was before us in that direction. Under the most favered nations clause Canada enjoyed in the Germsn Zvilverein the same advantage as Great Britain. Our markets were increasing and widening. The trade returns showed a notable increase in the exports of this country as compared with previous years. For the nine months of the current year the increase was $12,- 000,000 beyond the corresponding periol
attention to something that struck me during the recent debate. It is the most forcible thiog that struck me from that side It is a biue book, and speaking seriously, I doub: if Inugusage too strong could be used in reference to the conduct of anyone who would throw a missile of that kiad, I tis simply a black. guard trick.”
To which the Speaker added : ‘I have only to say that I am entirely powerless to prevent these occcrrences unless the House sustains me”
There isa great deal of horse-play carried on in the House occasioaally, which detracts seriously from its dignity, and is not only unedifyiog for the spectator but does not increase his respect for the law makers of the country. There are times, of course, when a saint would weary of McMullen and Casey and their everlasting whines,and,wheu it is ex- tremely tedious if not distressing to b: com. pelied to sit for hours in an atmosphere none so good. Then it becomes almost necessary to indulge in a little bodily exercise to keep awake; but there are one or two gentlemen who carry the joke a little too tar. The most conspicuous offender is McAlister, the M. P. for Restigouche, New Braoewick. What are the peculiar qualifications which entitle this individual to represent an ia- telligent constituency, his colleagues in Parliament and the public at large have yet toleara Once only last session did he ad- dress the House, and that upon a private bill; while this season, so far, he has been dumb Ifit were the man’s modesty that was responsible for this extraordinary re ticence, then we might be thankful tor the possession of such a virtue in an assembly so conspicuously destitute of it. But when we see him playing small boy and pelting paper balls and books, at the plug hats of attentive and hard-workiog members in front of him, then we know it is not modesty but ignorance and ill-manners that is his complaint.
Ou Tuesday, Mr. Patterson, Secretary of State, introduced a bill to amend the Civil Service Act, the object of which is to obviate a difficulty which has arisen regard- ing the employment of temporary clerks who were in the service prior to 1882. After several other bills had been ad- vanced a stage, Mr. Tupper moved the second reading of the bill to further amend the Fisheries Act. He said that, as he anticipated a lengthy discussion on the measure, he propused to take a stage on the Bill so as to refer it with certain reso- lutions to one of its clauses, to the Com- mittee, 80 as to avoid repeating the discus- sion. The Bill was accurdingiy theu read a second time, and the following resolu- tions were referred to committee of the whole House :
(1) That it is expedient to impose a fee of $5 for each license granted by the Min- ister of Marine and Fisheries to can, pre- serve, or cure lobsters, or keep them alive out of close season in ponds or vther places. (2) That it is expedient to impose a fee, at the rate of 2 cents for each case contain- ing four doz-n one-pouad cans of lobsters, and one cent for each case containing two dozen one-p»und cans of lobsters, to be paid by the packer to the person directed by the Minister of Marine and Fisheries to mark, label or stamp such case.
Mr. Tupper stated that it was his desire that the subject should be fully and care- fully considered, in no sense in a party spirit. He intended to lay before the House some interesting information he had received from Mr. Neilson, an employe of the Newfoundland Government, as also other reports on the matter. tions were then adopted pro forma to save time, on the distinct understanding that they should be debated and ful'y consider- ed when in committee on the bill.
