trade Relations.

SIR JOHN'S OPINION.

OTTAWA, Sept. 16.

Sir John Macdonald attended the Roman Catholic picnic at Morrisburg to-day. The weather was unfavorable for an out-door demonstration, and accordingly a meeting was held in Music Hall this evening, when the Premier delivered a most -important epeech on the trade relations Canada and the Unned States. He said that Canadians would rather that the Mc- Kinley bill did not pass, but there was no doubt of the law coming into force whether the bill was dictated by unfriendly motives, and he did not propose to attribute motives, its effect would be detrimental to Canadian interests. It would check and have a ten- dency to diminish the commercial inter- course between the two countries. That is no fault of Canada. since the abrogation of the Reciprocity Treaty of 1854, differen’ sovernments, Con- servative and Reform alike had endeavored to secure improved trade relations between Canada and the United States. The United States had every right to pass such meas- ures they believe to be in the interests of their country. If the McKinlay bill passed the Canadians were not going to cry about it like children, but will meet it in the best way they can after the abrogation of the old Reciprocity Treaty.

lu the same manly spirit the people acted then, they must act now. He spoke of the efforts of the Minister of Agriculture to encourage the growth of two-rowed barley for the English market. In like manner eggs and poultry can besent there. A new trade route is just being opened up by

‘ ' | | | ' }

; ‘ i

Canada with China and Japan, and when !

the new C, P. R. steamers are placed on the route, trade is bound to extend to that market. He hoped to see before long the construction of a cable between Canada and Australia. Such a cable was the precursor of trade and would doubtless be followed at an early date by direct steamship communication. He was glad to say that the sister colonies of the antipodes are manifesting a desire for closer trade re- jations with us.
