THE DAILY EXAMINER OCTOBER 16, 1900. penne ceeeneaee THE STORY OF OIL, THe duty on coal oil, ‘and the high price prevailing for that article,ware most | violently denounced by the Grits when in Opposition, and by none of them mors violently than by Sir Loais Davies. An ove who bad thesligatest respect for Si | Louis’ word believed that, with a chang of government, the oi] duty would disap pear and the price diminish. Well, t» luty was reduced to the extent of about mel) cent per gallon,—which change vas accOmpanied by an increase of about ir cents in the price of the oil ; and th Canadian oil interests have fallen into the | | nands of Rockfeller and his gang.i | Here isthe story of how the job has been done. In order to get the ran ofthe Dominiou, Rockefeller’s emissaries had made an offer to the Conservative organiz- ers that for a reduction “to three cents a gallon $109,000-00 cash would be paid : while for} achange in the law, so as to allow importation in.tank steamers, an annual payment would be made for cam* paign or other purposes. The Conserva~ tives were not selling legislation, and res fused to comply. The present Government were not long in power when they legalized the importa - tion ofoil in tank stoamers,—the very thing for which it was well known Rocke- feller had been willing to pay an enormous bribe. This concession gained,the oil mag nates commenced their game in earnest. The Canadian refiners were quietly told that they might as well surreader first ae last» as the tank steamer legislation enabled the Standard oil men to put the oil down so low in pfice as to ruin their competi~ tors. The Canadians made a virtue of necessity and sold Sout to Rockefeller» who had j now fullcom:nand of the Canadian market. The next move on the part of the com« ing at the goods.

Lhave good companies and ear “ote you low rates, £. dine was to notify the railways that they must give a different and a lower rate to them, as against theirU S competitors, or they would adopt transportation by water, and divert an enormous business from the railways. The railways were compelled to surrender, and the Standard Hon WS Fielding.......... 200 00 Staffand Assistante— H Bourassa, M P Secretary 2,200 00 A QUESTION, {/Berore the Tarte-Laurier Administra- tion began, Sir Louis (then Mr. L. H.) Davies appealed to the people of West Qaeen’s, time after time, on the ground that the Liberal-Conservatives were ex- travagant in the use of public money,— and upon that ground he was always successful in his elections. There were other questions introduced asfor instance, Unrestricted Reciprocity the “elimination” of Protection, the low- ering of prices—particularly those of binder ,twine and kerogene, etc, — but the foundation of his appeals to the farmers of West Queen’s was always: tha; the Liberal-Conservative Government had spent too much public money and ad led too much to the taxes and the public debt. Now we poiat to these undoubted and O.] Company had it ail its own way frcm one end of Canadatothe ether: It con trolled all the refining, and absolutely regulated the price of transportatior, aud had nothing to do but fix the price, which became over Caneda as a whole about five ceule per gallon bigber than when Field- ing reduced the duty by one cent & gallon aad permitted im;ortations of oil in tark ste smers. lt is estimated tbat 20,006,000 gal lons of coal vil are consumed anuually in Canads. The increase of 5 cents per gallon amounts to $1,000,006. That is what the peo; le of Canada are paying an- nually and beiog equeezed into the stand~ ard o1l magnates by the legislation of the Laurier Government. Instead of thisenormous loss to the Canadian consumers, Sir Louis Davies solemnly promised a reduction of 1% cents a gallon on coal oi] amounting to a total gain of $2,400,000. That is about the usual difference between his,promises ant performances. ~*s ~~? e RECIPROCITY.” Here is Sir Louis Davies’ promise : “It is quite possible for the honest man with a sincere desire to negotiate a fair treaty, to negotiateone in a very short time.” Mere is the Hon, Mr, Fisher’s promise ; “If my leader comes iato power, it would not be a rash prediction to say that within six months from that day, by the scratch Of & pea, a treaty of Reciprocity would be put in force between Canada and the United States,” Here is the Hon. David Mills’ promise : “Ifthe honorable gentlemen On this side of the House cross to the Treasury Benches, 1 can promise there will be no difficulty ion establishing trade with the neighboring republic : H. BEER 4S \ How far Reciprocity has progressed : — (1) The Government has given the Americans a free market here fer Indian corn and got nothing 1m return. (2) The Canadian people have paid a bill of $34,000 for the High Jointers’ big Ftime at Quebec aud Washington. Hew the High Joimtere spent the money: The following are the details of the Ex- penditure at Washington and Quebee :— admitied facis: The expenditures of the Govtroment have in the last four y acs been increased beyoad all precedent U ader the Laurier-Tarte administration an uaprecedenteily large amount has every year been taken out of the pockets of the people; ard the public debt has been in~ creased by rearly $8,000,000; all kinds of works are goiug on, just before the elec~ tion, which the p* ple will have to pay for after the election—witrese the une authorized hole that is being dug ut Skinner’s Pond for the purpose of secur~ ing the defeat of Mr. Hackett. If, then, the electiors of West Queen’s always elected Sir Louis Davies on the ground ofthe extravagance of the late Government, ought they not, now, to re~ ject him on the ground of the atill greater extravagance of the present Government ? We pause for a reply ! ROBBERY IN RINDER TWINE. THe jobbery in binder twine by the Laurier administra. tion involves transactions of the most shady character, by which the farmers have been most severely bled. Including a million pounds on haad at the change of administration, about four millions pounds of twine made in the Kingston Penitentiary, were disposed of withou public competition at a gocd'deal less tha® cost. The twine, was thus eold by the Government to grocers, s0ap manufactur~ ers and hardware men—all active partizians of the Government—at an average price of 44 to 5 cents per pound. The farmers know that during these years they were obliged to pay from 11 to 14 cents per pound for the same twine. Allowing a reasonable sum for transportation, etc., it may be conceded that from ($150,000 to $200,000 clear profit was made out of this transac- tion. How mach of this money found its way into the “reptile” campaign fund, is a matter about which, naturally, there are many surmises.
