(Special correspondence of The Examiner ) Mr. Foster commenced his budget epeec! without any prefatory remarks He bi gu with the statement that the revenue, which last year amourt-d to $38 579310 fel: short of his estimate by $279,391, and w-s lesa than that of the previous year by &1,- 320,625 The quantity of spirits take from bond in 1889 90 was 3,574.799 gal lona, and in 189091 2,708,841, and the decrease in duty was over $1,000,000. Al the other articles of excise showed an in- crease over the preceding year. Bur ler not good people run away with the ides that less, or very much !ess, spirits was j used last year than the year before, whict was a phenomenal year. The large stock of L.guora withdrawn from bond in 1889 90 and which caused a large expansion of ex cise revenue, was because the law whici required spirits to be kept two years in tank for aging purposes came into effect on the Ist July, 1890, and a very large amoun: of spirits was withdrawn in anticipation, the duties on which swelled that year’s re- ceipts. Still, however, there is consolation for {the temperance man to be found in the fol- lowing table showing the per capita con- sumption of liquors and tobacco . = 8 22 -~ 2 2 « ° ae 8: =e Sf Average from 1867.1.'51 2.768 140 2128 SD OP so sk yesessy 883 3630 104 2,148 PERO GE as cid 866 3.282 102 2.033 So the people are using 25 per cent. less spirits and wine and 20 per cent. mort beer, while the tobacco has also decreased This is much better than if the picture were reversed. The actual expenditure of the year was $36 343 562, an increase of $343 562 over ‘he estimate, but $574,267 less than tat of 1888 89 The increase was very large y du to the cost of taking the census, which was $252,154 Notable decreases tuo place in the vxpenai: ure for interest on public debt, du.- to the retirement of stock bearing 6, 5 and 4 per cent. by money borrowed at about 3h percent The amount of this de- crease 1s not large, being only $72.705, but it is permanent Deducting expenditure from revenne left a surplus of $2,235,742, against which had to be placed expenditure on capital account of $4,381,664. Allow ing for the amount (uearly $2,000 000) laid by last year to the credit of the sink- ing fund, which is_ practically a reduction of the public debt, we had been able to provide for all our expenses and railway subsidies, with only a new addition to the debt of $275 817 Had it not been for taking off toe duties on raw sugar last year, by which the revenue lost $3,0 0,000, we should have been able to come up to the end of 1892 w thout one dollar of increase of debt since 1889, and with halt a million of our stated debt decreased frum the cunsoli- dated revenue fund. When some of your readers are inclined to shake their heads over the increase of debt to which Mr. Fuster acknowledges, and the increase of expeuditure over what he had estimated, just let them bear in mind that he swept away. by one stroke last session, $3,000, - 000 of revenue which he could have had from sugar duties, and that this $3,000,000 is in the pockets of the people of Canada. They know is. The net debt is now $237 809 030, and the net interest thereon $8 506,908, having decreased in the last four years by abvut $400,009, The revenue for 189293. Mr. Foster estimated, would be $36,500,000, and our expenditure would have to be kept withia that amvunt, Temporary lows had been made of $9,- 753,333 to meet the redemption of the debt, consequent partly upon the withdrawal of deposits in the ssvings banks, and for re- demption of the debt proper. To show that the withdrawal of savings banks de- posits was not due to a diminution in the savings of the people, he tabled a statement showing that the deposits in the various chartered and savings banks on th- 3lst May, 1890, were $176 703,258; on Slet May, 1891, $190.441 759; snu on 29 h Feb- ruary, 1892, $203 968,719—or an incresse of over tweaty-sevea mui ons of dollars in lesa than two years Whether it would be betier to continue the temporary loans, or go upon the market for a permanent loan, ds pended upon the state of the money mar- kets. Happily, the credit of Oanada stood well, in spite of the attacks of enemies within her walls And here Mr. Foster saiied int» Sir Richard Cartwright for his recent letter t» the Londen Evunomist, and gave him a skinning such as he must have felt, notwithstanding his sphinx-like im- p sssiveness. Everyone who has heard the Mimster of Finance knows that he has an admirable command of language, aad it was used with telling effect upon this occasion. He tore Cartwright and his base treachervus letter into shreds and patches amid the ap- plause of the House and the rapture of the crowded galleries, who would have ap- plauded had they dared. He read sen- tence after sentence of that iufamous let- ter, and while he held forth the statements it contained to the acorn of the House, he gave them an emphatic deai«l. I trust your spsce will allow you,to repro- duce a few extracts from Mr, Foster's speech. He said : “Sir, the time of the attack was 4 pecu- liarly opportune one fur the euemy to have winged his arrow at a vital point in c sna- dian reputation and Canadian credit. It was a time when the money market in W. J. BOSWALL, ' moblé Lower Queen Street. Great Britain was particularly sensitive, Ir (OTTAWA LETTER iad for two years been standing the strain f losses and | quidations in South America a dof liquidation at home, and was agitat- ed by the possibilities and premonitions of tiasncial hardebips and perhaps financial tisaster in different parts of Europe. I+ ‘a8 atime when criticism of colonial fin- nce is much the fashion in Great Britain and is somewhat unfavorable owing to the attempts which have been made, not al- ways successful, by the Australian eolonies o float loans on the London money market nd which have in most cases resu!ted dis- strously to these colonies. It was a time when Cauada herself had temporary loans ‘ut amounting to ten millions of dollars which had to be renewed in one form or oher. Ir was a time when many msretor- 1 us enterprises were in hand, tbe resulta £ which, if these enterprises materialized, would tend to the development of the re- sources of Canada ip a marked degree, and it was a time when, owing to the abundant harvests of last year, emigrants from the various centres of Great Britain were being led to look tu Canada, and our Northwest. particularly, aa a future home for them- selves and their families. It was a time at which « friend of Canada, if he had aothing gocd to say, would have held his peace——-who, if he could have presented ne single truth, to have buoyed up and sustained the position of Canada, would have thought it hieduty to do so, It was a time when the enemy would have dipped his arrow in poison, and winged it straight as he could to the vital part of Canadian credit and Canada’s reputation in the old country—and it was dune. What vehicle did the enemy of Canada take to achieve this ignoble object { The vebicle used was a financial one, the first in Great Britain, one which circulates extensively amongst the moneyed interests, and through its ut- terances and representations has great in- fluence in determining the minds of money- ed men tuwards any country or any enter- prise; which is studied as well by influen- tial factors and motors in emigration from that country to this. And, sir, I hold in my hand the decument which at this pecu- the credit of Canada. That motive was carried on Operations begao and w: re carried on dur- ing the last five years in fruitless fields com- paritively on this 6 de were taken over to the other side, where we draw our sympathy, where we lock for large capitul to develop this country, and where the credit and reputa'ion of Canada amounts to a great factor in her future Tee and iu wept a develop- ment. same things tle- man has aght belore the ae of Canada time and again for the Ist five or six years. He has given that forth on almost every hustings in the conatry. Wherever he has gone in these later days the people have repudiated him and his party. He has been disappointed and baulked in his programme of veiled annexation on thieside quote the words, if aot the words the exact mean- ing of the genticiian whoth he owned as his leader for six or seven years ia this House. Foiled, baulked and disappointed in that, he has nothing better to do than to go to the mother country and give one fins! stab as strong as he can at the credit, at the reputa. tion and stability ot this country in the mother land. (Cries of ** Shame, shame ") I have called the attention ot this House and of the country to this point. I brand the action as an unprecedented one, #8 an up- called for one, as an unjustifiable one, as a moet unpatriotic one, and from a par iat of view, in add hon. ee posite, I wish to make this single remark that so long as they retain their affiliations with the hon. gentleman in politics, a gentlernan who takes that method, just so long will they net have to seek far and wide for reasons why ae are defeated by the le. “Mr. Foster then dropped Garseright and took up the trade of the country which he pro- ceeded to show was essing § moat satisfactorily notwithstanding the oper- ations of the McKinley — Bill. On the Pacific coast and the West Indian steamship line there had been a constant {ocrease both in the passengers carmied and the freight delivered, and the ste mship service to the West Indies had developed a large increase of trade between our country and thse islands Mr. Foster then proceeded to give an account of what passed between Mr. Blaine and the Canadian delegates at the recent Washing'on conference. the result of which liar time, and by this peculiar vehicle, has been not only sent broadcast in The Ecuno- mist through Great Britain tu do its work, ' but has actuaily been printed, probably by the writer himself—and if not by him, at least by one who is no greater friend of | Canada than he—and, as a campaign docu- ment, has been circulated fram one end ot Geeat Britain i t» the other, “*| suppose the House knuws to whom | refer—the writer of these statements. He sits opposite to me to-day. (Cres of “sham .”) He was formerly Finance Minister ia the Liberal regime. He 18 to- day the financial if not the actual leader . f his party. His statement may be read by any hon. gentleman who chooses to do so, | but Ll have half a dozen of them here. and 1 will give them in a sort of crescendo, keeping the worst until the last. The hon. gentleman to whom | refer, sir, deciares in that document that in 13 years Canade has urebled her taxation. That ia not true. exodus and a very great depreciation in farm lands. That is an exaggeration, and what there is true is made all the muore mischievous because he puts no facts by comparison along with the statement that he mskes. He declares that there has been an immense increase in the aggregate ing of federal matters, and 1 supp se he mesns the federal indebtedness. In 1878 the amouut per head paid to the federal indebtedness was $158; in 1891 it was $1.76, an immense increase ot just 18 cents per head in the period from 1878 to 1891. That document also states that the great mass of the people, and probably the far- mers of Canada, are distinctly poorer than 13 years ago. What a statement for my hon. friend to spread broadcast through Great Britain, from which we get the greater part, and J might add the better part, of the emigration that comes to this country. He declares the cenaus shows that Canada has lost during the last ten years 14 millions of perple. The census shows nv such thing, but still such a slight thing as that does not affect my hon. friend, he makes his statement all the same. He declares that the agriculturists of this country hav~ been simply bledwhite. He says that $60 000,000 is taken annu ly out of the pockecsa of the people. That, ia con- nection with the statement that in thirteen years Canada has trebied her taxation, is probably the greatest of the many exagyer- ations that the hon. gentleman in the last five years has been guilty of. He declares that bribery is a pure matter of business. The hon. gentleman may have found out something from his own experience—I1 will bot contradict that—bur if he means that as- sertion to apply to the Capadian government as at present constituted, or as 15 has been constituted since 1878 I give it my em- phatic denial. He siaes that public hfs in Canada is disgraced by intulerable aud organized corruption uukouwn to the po pie of Euyland since the days of Waipule ve of Cnarks IL., and he winds up by de- claring that it ta utterly impossible fur UVan- ada to prosper under present conditions; that if there is mo change Confederation must perish, rotten hefure it has had time even to become half ripe, as the result of the vice and the folly with which its affairs have been administered, Taat, sir, is the hon. gentleman’s contribution. Now, sir, I say that the hon gentleman could have but one motive in penning that letter and publishing it, as he has published it. **His presumed motive for taking his case before the British publie was that he m ght explain to the British people what he meant by this policy which for the last five years he has been endeavoring to foiat upon the people of Canada, and which was as intolerable to the thinking British public +s itwasto the think ng Uanadisw publc. Chat might, sir, have been some valid ex- cuse for the hon gentleman to have ex pained his policy, but it was no excuse for nim for taking up more than that in hisvili tication aud unwarranted abuse of the pub- lic, of the polities, of the reputation, and of He declares that there exists a tremendous: indebtedness of this country. The im-| that every youn mense increase consists in this, he is speak- | the Island, could read it. may be mi: fly summed up thus: The United States would make no treaty with Canvda which did not give their manufactures prefer- ential treatment and con-egquem) discrimina- tion against foreign countries and esp-cially against Great Bricain, Thit there muat be a uniform tariff and that mast practically be the tariff of the United Staves. While he regretted that nv means could be found by which profitable trade relations ce uld be established with rhe Uni ed States, he was not at «ll afraid te fave the furure. A large and profitable market awaitel them in Great B:itsin, which was practically oao- interfered with by home empetition, and which had no varia ion or fliciuation in the way of tariff imperrs, When Mr. Foster sat down, Sir Richard Cartwright rose toreply It was easily seen that he was very mad, and being pit ou the defensive, his speech was fa: from being effective. Of course he stood by everything contained in his letter. The chi-f point he ha: ped on was the census and the National Policy. When Sir Richard sat down, Mr. Tupper took bim in band, and if there is anything which galls the Knight of Biue Rain, i: is to have young Tupper—that ‘‘puss” as he called hin—reply to him. Mr. Topper’s speech was a remarkably able ome, and it was listened to attentively by the crowded alleries who were soareely restrained from requently bursting into applause.
