Apply to ’ 100 P.O. BOX 57 EXAMINER, PROVINCIAL LEGISLATURE. (Continued from 7th page.) Hon. Mr Gordon although suffering from a cold desired to express bhimeelf on this question of our claims. Several previous delegations have presented «maeterly meworials, and our delegates ou this cecasion have probably done the best in their po ver. We have had reason to expect that something would have re-ulted from the last delegation but Premier Laurier’s reply simply means that if arbitration is granted us all the other Provinces will ask for the tame treatment. We must go on hoping. If we depend on Ottawa to meet our deficits then be pitied the people of P. E. Island for all time to come. Tbe seconder went outside the sphere of thie question in his remarks. Be (Mr. Gordun) considered that the captain of the Stanlev was the right man to judge of what was the best winter port. ‘I'here were many dangers at the port of Summer- side and itwas the onjy port he (Yr. Gordon) - was ever wrecked in, He fully believed that the Pictou-George- town route was the bes!; but if after a trial the Sammerside-Point du Ghene route proved better, let the new steamer run there. Our delegates were once termed the “Jolly Beggars.” They did not deseive this pame., He hoped that al! means shonld be used to get our claims, but bh felt dubieus about the result. He concluded by moving the following amendment : W nereas, by the terms of Confederation between the Dominion ot Canada and Prince Edward Isiaud a poruon of our subsidy from the Dominion was based on the difference between the net debtot the Dominion with the estimated cost of cer- tain authorised public works and the pet debt of Prince Edward Island ; and Whereas, by the terms of union between the Dominion of Canada, this Province was distivetly promised efficient steam communication for tbe conveyance of mails and passengers to be established and maintained teiween the Island and the mainland wiuter aod summer thus placing the Isiand in continuous commnpication with the Iniercuiouial railway aod the railway system of the Dominion; and W bereas, the amount expended on rail- ways aud cava sin the other provinces of the Dominion is far in excess of that est:- mated and authorised at the time of Con- federation while comparatively little has veen expended ov the railway syetem of this province; W hereas, the terms of union as regards winter cemmuuication have not been carried out thereby causing serious loss to the people of this province; and Whereas, this Legislaiure bas under consideration a memorial presented to the Federal Goverument by the delegation from the Government of this province relating to our Claims against the LYominion Gov- ernment; Whereas, the Government at the session of 1897 gave the people of this province @D &-siirance twat our Claims were well founded end could not be successfully ‘dened us, Iherefore resolved, that this Legislative Arsembly expresses its deep disappoint- meotat the reply of the Premier of the Dominion +s well ae at the fruitiess result of the mission of the delegates; and, Further reeu.ved, that inthe opinion of this ,Houre P. E. Islaod has a just aud equitable claun agaiet the Dominion of Cavada avd in the adjustment of such claim no settlement shuuld be effected pre- judicial to railway extension in P. EK. [siand. Mr. Shaw secouded the amendment in- troduced by the Leader of the Opposition. He was glad to find thata chauge Lad come over the bon. member for Bed: que who formerly sostrongly denounced the Censervative Governmeut for not grant- ing ourclaimsand promised that when the Liberals got there there clsims would all beeettled. Now the Liberals are in power and in spite ot al! their great promises and greri taxstivn defi ics contin- ue to roll up against this province. A Change has also ccme over the hon. meta~ ber for Springton who formenly eaid that we had noclaims against the Dominion, and in this he was supported by the hor. member for West River, aithough the Conservative delegation obtained $20,000 addtional to our subsidy. To-day howe ver the Lon. member moves that the -eport of the delegation be adopied on the very tas’s cn which he said the [*land had 9 claim. Several other ir- Econsisiencits ofasimilar rature cunld , Shown regarding these low gentlemen. Ip regard to the rolling up of debt and the taxing of the people the hon. member trom Bedeque talked one way and voted the other, Mr. Shaw thought the memorial lacked conciseness and repeated itself. One feaiure was the adjustment of our claims by arbi- tration, and on this the Hon. Mr, — suggested tliat the arbitrators should no: belong to this I-lazd—a most outrageous Suggestion and sure to work against the interests of the Proviace. ‘The history of arbitrations at home an! abroad ‘has proved this, aod the Government sbould see tO it that a resident of this Island is on that arbitration if sucb is granted by the Federal Government. It enc uld also bave been stipulated in the memorial that the conclusions of the arbitration should be binding. Mr. Sbaw then referred to the basis of our claims aa set forih ip the memorial, pointing cut that he though: tbe reference toa eecond winter boat was unwise as well as that to the cartying out of the terms of confederation respecting coatinu ous communication. Whv did the delegates state $45 per head with respect to our entering of cosfederation when $50 per head waethe per capital aliowance gianted us. Mr, Shaw also sri eised the Ce i NE i CHARLOTTETOWN, MAY 9, 1898. in which our claim canals was set forth ic the memorial. In this they have made an error of abou $400,000 a year and dove a great in- jastice to this province. Then in regard io subsidies the government delegates did not do justice to this province. Why was notour share of the 25,000,000 acres of land given tothe C. P. R.—less about 7,000,000 subsequently taken backby the Govern- ment—Claimed iv additionto the amount ot money from the Dominion Gov- ernment. The same is true of the 32,000,900 acres given to subsidize weatern railways. Therefore our dele- gates were derelict in their duty in present- in our Claims, Then the hon. gentlemen on the government side do not agree as to the amount of our claims. He argued that the claim based on the fisheries question was not correct because when the Washbiogton treaty was ratified P. E Island was a member of the confederation. We had no legal right to any of that fishery award. Then we have no legal claim for pensions, avother claim set Out in the memorial. Io view of all the facts set out he supported the leader of the opposition. Hon. Mr. Warburtor fllowed. He quoted the amendment just moved poivt~ ing Out that the points it referred to were brought ont in the memorial. He believed that every member had a desire to work in the interests of the Province, bat the arguments advanced by the hou. member for New Perth had done more to injure manner ' our Claims than anything that could have been done. Every claim of the Isiand is equarely and fairly set forth in the memo- ' rial and why should our owa peop'e try to } Peters | ‘upthe question of amonnits balk the Government in getting our claims. Let us tight tor our claims like men to the Jast. No matter where the arbi- tration comes from. What we want is a fair, square, impartial man. The Delegates pre~ sented our claims as forcibly as they could possibly do, and every bonorable means was adopted to bring the matter home to the Federal ministere. None of the claims ret forth io the memorial were arrived at from incorrect datu. He took Spent on 0. ?: B. andi. ©. &. the claims of both stated in the memoria’, In regard to the fishery awary claim Mr. Warburton said that when he and Messrs Richards and Mc: Donald addressed the Dominion mivisters they did not advance this claim on a Irgal standpoiot vut on that of equity aad justice; aod his government intended to fight the mater out if ao arbitration can be obtained. Ile then moved the adjouroment of the debate, The House adj urned at 11.15 m, tomorrow. caoals and on the claiming that were properly till 10a Magazines ~— FOR MAY Cosmopeatitan, Munsey, Argosy, Ladies’ Home Journal, Puritan.
