It could certainly have found the money tor a fast service and cold Storage i 1t had desired to. To-day, under business management, we couid have been sending more farm products t we DOW send, and we could have been getting far more for them than we do. ‘The destruction of our fas steamship project was followed by a sn against a tariff preference for our tarmets in the British market Sir Wilfrid Laurier has admitted that : our farmers can send their wheat, their cattle, their butter, and their | cheese into Britain free of duty, while campai if the like products of the Yankees and the Russians are taxed, it wiil be the making of Canadaand of the Cana-! dian tarmer. Mr. S. W. Ross aas declared that there is no reason why ) this policy should not be adopted. | Yet tne Ottawa Ministers have set | and Sir Wilfrid encugh to go to their faces against it, Laurier was unwise England and to say, “We do not want it; do net give it,” and to win a Cobden medal for thus opposing the | interes:s of his own countrymen in this matter. The Yankee has free trade in England. He has fast ships and cold storage. He sends ten times ; the produce to England that we do. ee “a He rules all Canadian farm produce out of his market, and yet Laurier declares that this state of affairs must not be altered. We give a pre-| ference to British goods over foreign | goods. Why should jthe government under which we are ruled out of the United States market say that Britain, where the desire for preferential treat- ment is growing, should give no prefer- ence to us in return? tables, our poultry, our mea THE WISER POLICY. Sir Charles Tupper, in his address | to the farmers of Canada, urges them to abandon this policy of “let alone’ and of blundering, and to turn once | mre to the po icy of national progres: | and agricultural development. What can the progressive party do? It may be unable to correct at once all of the | mistakes that have been made. For | example, this Gevérnment has closed | great markets against us. It has gone | to Germany, where the Americans seil $100,000,0c0 of wheat, of cattle, and of meat, including the bacon and hams, and deliberately secured higher duties upon Canadian products there than | are levied upen similar prodncts growa | in Canada. ‘his mistake cannot per- haps be rectified at once. But new mistakes can certainly be prevented, and the progress can be taken wheie It was dropped four years ago, and can be carried toa successful conclusion. The new Government can try for the British preference for our farmers. Lord Salisbury’s Administration is cer- tain to be returned, and Mr. Chamber- lain will bea potent member of that Government. A Government in Can ada favourable the Chamberiain policy of preferential trade may be able to s2cure for us the favour whi h Sir Wilfrid Laurier opposed and de- clines to accept on any terms. If we can get it, it will be a big thing for our farmers. But pending the ac- complishment of this great step in ad- vance, there is much that ean and will be done. ‘The ‘let-them “alone” idea will be cast aside, and strong, forceful | and determined measures will” be tak- | en to build up our great agricultural industry by transporting its products tothe $7c0,000,c0c0 market swift'v, ckeaply, and in fine condition.
