RN Tue Darty Examiner. JUNE 1, 1882. The Men for Prince. Epwarpv Hacxert, Esg., ann Davin Roarns, Ese., are the standard bearers of the Liberal-Conservative Party in Prince County. The ability and fairness of Mr. Hackett has gained for him the respect of tbe best men in Parliament and among his con- stituents. Every year he has strengthened his hold upon the confidence of his Leaders and his friends, Mr. Rogers is a well- known merchant, successsful in business, alive to the interests of the County and the | Province, and well able to maintain them | in Parliament. The Men for King’s. Avustis C. McDoyaup, Esg., anv Dr. Murranrr are again the Liberal Conserva- tive candidates for King’s County. The success which they before achieved, is an earnest of the success of their candidature now. The unanimity and enthusiasm with which they have been again welcomed into the field is, we are sure, exceedingly grati- fying to them; and will encourage them to continue, in Parliament and out of Parlia- ment, their efforts for the advancement of the interests of King’s County, and the country at large. During the past four years, King’s County has been one of the best represented Counties in Canada. Than ** McDonatp anv Mortarr” no two men could be more attentive to their public duties. —— -_os-+- Three Addresses. We have before us three highly import- ant political papers. They comprise the manifesto of the Grit Leader, the Hon. Edward Blake to the electors of West Durham, and the Election Cards of Messrs. Laird and Davies, the Grit Candidates for | this County. In considering these docu-| ments it must be borne in mind that Mr. Blake’s manifesto, like the card of every Leader, contains in epitome, the policy of his party, and is just as binding on Messrs. Laird and Davies as their own addresses. Well, then, in what position do the Grit Candidates find themselves on the Trade question? Mr. Laird says he “holds to Free Trade so far as it can be carried out consistently with the requirements of the revenue.” Mr. Davies is bolder and says “I am a Free Trader, and believe the Protective system now in operation in this Dominion to be oppressive and ruinous to the mass of the ple.” But what does Mr. Blake say. Phe follewing ia a pretty full extract from his man’festo, iol plainly indicates his Opinions . ** But you know also that I have fully recognized the fact that we ure obliged to raise yearly a great sum made great by the obliga- tions imposed on us by this Government, and that we must continue to provide this yearly sum mainly by import duties laid To 4 LARGE EXTENT ON GOODS SIMILAR TO THOSE WHICH CAN BE MANUFACTURED HERE ; and that it results as a necessary INCIDENT OF OUR SETTLED FISCAL systEeM that there must be a large, and as I believe, in the view of Moper- ATR PROTECTIONISTS, an ample advantage to the home manufacturers. Our adversaries wish to present to you an issue as between the present tariff and abso- lute free trade.” Tat IS NOT THE TRUE ISSUE. Free rrave is, as I have repeatedly ex- plained, FOR US IMPOSSIBLE, and the issue is, whether the present is perfect or de- fective or unjust, Mr. Blake then goes on to point out, in detail, what he considers defecta in the tariff, viz., the duties on coal, breadstuffs, sugars, the lower grades of cottons and woollens, and iron, He has undertaken to point out all the defects in the tariff, but ean find none, even in his own estimation, save those mentioned. He then declares his conviction that if ‘“ changes” were made in these particulars, ” oe and extravagant prices would be chec od, and a greater measure of fair play and justice to all classes would be better adjusted to the capacity of the ve who are to pay.” We have given lake’s policy in his own words, so that wecannot be accused of misrepresenting i He is in accord with the Tilley tariff except in regard to the duties on coal, breadstuffs, snzar, lower grades of cottons and woollens, and iron. These he calls “ incidents of the tariff.’”’ This is certainly reducing the question to very narrow limits. Mr. Blake does not attempt to show that these “incidents of the Tariff’ induce higher prices to the consumer. We believe he cannot do sv. We are certain that while the duties on coal, breadstuffs, raw sugars, woolens and cottons have not increased the prices to consumers, they have given a wonderfu! impulse to the mining and manufacturing interests of the country. The increased dut on iron has effected,and probably still effects the price ; but the rapid development of eur iron ind will soon bring prices of iron to their proper level. Mr. Biake’s card is a complete back- | o— — en to the Tilley Tarif, | *\ Free-trade,” he says, ‘‘is for us impos- sible 7’ but the present Tariff is a “perfect.” Wall, no person, we suppose, over claimed that it is “* perfect ;” but that it is, on the whole, in the interest of the is, we think, evident by the weak-| @ess Qi Mr. 3Biske’s attack upon it, Messre. Laird cud Davies claim to his card that this I[s'and is « public lands.’ champions to the settlers, in the matter of family. ** paying at least $150,000 annually to the Government, as our share of the increased taxation,” is characteristic ef its author. We will meet it by an extract from a speech delivered by Mr. Blake in the House of Commons : * For Parysce Epwarp Istanp THE Re- crrets werk $1,566,000, raz ExrenbiTURE $2,624,000—rne Dericir (THAT Is THE Loss To CaNnava) $1,027,000.” If the loss to Canada, on account of Prince Edward Island was up to 1880, $) 027,000, as stated by Mr. Blake, what happens the $150,000 which Mr. Davis says we pay annually in the shape of it- creased taxation? We do not undertake to determine whether Mr. Blake or Mr. Davies is telling the truth. We believe both their statements to be gross exagger- ations ! After strongly condemning the Pacific Railway Contract, Mr. Blake says:— “The progress of the Northwest is due to the work we did, and proposed to do. Mr. L. H. Davies may well look to his laurels as the champion story-teller of the Dominion. Mr. Biake does not explain what he means by the words ‘‘ we did and proposed to do.” Does he refer to his own speeches belittling the Northwest, and landing Kansas as a home for settlers ! Does he refer to Mr. McKenzie’s famous scheme for ‘‘utilizing the magnificent water stretches”? Do the phrases ‘‘ what we did and what we proposed to do,” include the building of Fort Francis Locke or the Forbes Contract?’ Perhaps Mr. Blake may have the ingenuity to show that the vote which he shirked on the Canarvon terms had much to do with the progress of the Northwest ! Mr. Blake asserts that the motto of the Grit partyis: **The land for the settler, the price for the public.” Parrot like, Mr. Davies repeats the motto without acknowledgment; and Mr. Laird announces himself in favor of “free competition in The generosity of the Grit lands, is, indeed, charming. It reminds one of the proposition of an Eastern king, to present his subjects with all the fish in the sea, but denied them hooks, neta or lines with which to catch them. The Grits are not, by any means, a happy Blake is avowedly a moderate Protectionist. McKenzie regards the National Poliey as a “ National folly and a National crime,” while their humble follow- ers, the Grit candidates for Queen’s County, are wavering between a revenue tariff and free trade. -_————————— +e. _- Mr. Blake on Home Rule. Tue Grits are distributing among the Irish electors of this Previnee the speech recently delivered by Hon. Edward Blake on the Home Rule Resolutions introduced in the House of Commons by Hon. Jobn Costigan. Irish Catholic of the Dominion, and his recent elevation to a seat in the Cabinet has been long looked forward to by the [rishmen of Canada. marks with reference to Mr. Blake's speech, made at Toronto a few days ago:— Mr Costigan is the leading Here are his re- Weare told, said Mr. Costigan, ‘‘ that the Irish people of this country should and will no longer support the Conservative ; party, and that their true interests lie in attaching them- selves to the party of which the Hon.

(Loud cheers.) 1 listened in the House of Commons to the very able and eloqueut speech delivered by the Hon Mr. Blake, and am ready to give him every eredit for the effort. although not prepared to o as far as to believe, ae some of his devoted riends have claimed, that it created a revo- lution on the other side of the Atlantic, and made impressions and produced effects which the efforts of O'Connell and Burke and the long line of Irish patriots had failed to accom- lish; but while I am ready to accord to Mr. lake every credit which he merits, I MUST, IN JUSTICE, ACCORD STILL GREATER CREDIT TO THE LEADER OF THE Gov. ERNMENT, SIR JOHN MACDONALD, AND TO THE LIBERAL-CONSERVAT VE PARTY, WITHOUT THE SUPPORT OF WHOSE REPRESENTATIVES IN PAR- LIAMENT, M&, BLAKE'S SPEECH WOULD HAVE BEEN WORSE THAN WASTE PAPER.” The Situation in Engiand. Tue editor of the Patriot attempts to show that England is prosperous, and that her prosperity is due to Free Trade. Ad- mitting it to be true that England, with all the accumulated wealth of centuries, is better off now under Free Trade, than it was fifty years ago under Protection, that is no proof that Free Trade would be best for this new country. The policy of France is intensely Protectionist now, as in the past; and it is admitted that France, not- Withstanding her wars, has prospered in the last fifty years, and is prosperous ! But is England as prosperous as the editor 6f the Patriot would have his readers believe? By a return made to the English House of Commons in 1880, it appears there were in England and Wales alone 800,426 paupers—120,000 of whom were able-bodied men. In these returns vag- rants were not included. Will the editor of the Patriot show us any Protectionist country with so large a portion of its popu- lation paupers ? Pork. : A correspondent of the Patriot acknow- ¥|ledges that the protection afforded pork- raisers by the National Policy, has been a benefit to P. E. Island, and says in reply to our correspondent, ** A.

Nyy Tu the Pree and Independsnt Electors of Queen’s County. GENTLEMEN, — Again [ have the honor of soliciting your suffrages at the Election to be held for the Dominion House of Commons on the 20th June next, Thanking vou for the support you formerly accorda to me as a representative of the Libera] Uonservative Party in this Province at a time when its policy was first inaugurated, I can now the more confidently appeal to you when We kuow the success which has followed the intreduction of that policy, As one of yourrepreseatatives in Parliament for the past four years, mv views upon most of the leading questions of the day are knowa to you. a A supporter of the Liberal Conservative Party of the Dominion, I have endeavored, having your especial interests in view, to assist the present Government in its many-measures advancing the material interests of Canada, Without inereasing our taxation it has beea able to estallish and foster great mannfactur- ing and commercial industries, and by wise and judicious legislation materially to advance the prosperity of the whole people. A yearly surplus in the treasury has proved its capacity for admiuistering the finances of the country, aud enabled us to-day to enjoy free of duty some of the necessaries of life. The unprecedented development and peop- ling of the North West Territories has been the result of the contract made by the pre eat Government with the Canada Pacific Kailway Company, in the face of the bit'erest opposi- tion tor some time past given to any public measure. A year’s experience has more than justified the Government in that act, and falsified every prediction against its success. I will not deceive you by announcing my- se'fa Free Trader. 1 will be as honest as Mr. Blake, the Leader of the Reform Party, and, using his words in his recent address, say, ‘Free Trade is for us impossible, and the issue is whether the present tariff is perfect or defective and unjust.” 1 have no hesitation in upholding the present tariff, believing it to be framed in the best interests of the whole Dominion, and that its adoption has infused new life and vigor into our country, lifting it out of the condition of prostration into whioh it had sunk four years azo. The settled policy of both parties is adverse to Fres Trade. It is dighonest to attempt to conceal the fact. I ask your suffrages on no false issue, but if elected by you will always feel it my duty in the adjustment of the Tariff- to see that the particular interests of this Pro vince are not everlooked. Our claim to a portion of the Fishery Award is one of paramount importance. I regret that hitherto our efforts to obtain its recognition have been unavailing with both political parties We have, at least, the satisfaction of knowing that no time or op- portunity has been- lost in presenting it. Finding that our cla ms singly and apart from that of the Maritime Proviaces, would not be entertained favorably by the House, I, with the other representatives of this Island, joined hands with the representatives of the Maritime Provinces and pressed our case upon the Dominion Parliament with a strength only to be gained by united action. You are aware of the failure of that effort, and the pro- nounced opinions of the leaders of both par- ties against us. It is greatly to be regretted that che separate and distinct claim of the Telan. was not, at the settlement of the ease presinted before the Fishery Commis- sion at Halifax. duly niade and claimed. +t was an inexcusable oversight on the part of the counsel representing this Island. For although recognizing the fact that the arbi- trators could by no possibility have made a separate award in our case, the fact of our having a distinct claim, had it thus been brought to the notice of the British Agent, would have placed us in a much better posi. tion when distribution was made and New- foundland paid a portion of the award. Dealing with a Government which has 80 far recognized the rights generaily of the Maritime Provinces to this Award as to grant for the material furtherance of t':eir fisheries the interest on the full sum awarded, I shall continue to press for the recognition of a claim which I believe to be just and equitable, The grant this year made to our public works is an earnest of the ev'dent intent of the Government to deal generously with us. I need not say that, knowing from wheuce it comes, every dellar granted will be really appropriated and spent for the pur- poses for which they were grani -d. My colleague, Dr. Jenkins, and myself will, I trust, be able in the short time al- lowed us, to meet most of you at the public meetings callel throughout the County.

I do so with the more confidence that I feel assured the constituency 1 aspire to represent is truly and essentially iadependent; that the great majority possess that intelligence ' and discrimination which enable them to dis- | cern and appreciate the good qualities of a | Government such as now rules the destinies of | Canada, whose history preves them to be gitted with that rare administrative capacity and exceptional financial ability, which have the effect of rapidly and easily developing the resources of the country, mamtaining, at the same time, a large and increasing surplas in the treasury,~a surplus produced by a fiscal poiicy which, while it does not press unduly on the industrial classes, ‘stimul.tes and encourages those great mining and manufac- turing interests, which are indispensabie, as adjuvants to agriculture, in promoting the prosperity of a people. Having so large a surplus, the Goveioment is in a position to deat Jiberally with the Provinces, avd the fact that, in the supplementary estimates, there is the handsome sum of $312,000 for this Island, is evidence of the intention, as well as the ability of the Executive, t» provide ungrudg- ingly for our public works; and I am happy to be in a position to state that engineers will be here almost directly to commence one of the works; i. ¢., to survey the different routes suggested for the location of the Cape Traverse Railway. Under the policy of the Mackenzie Govern- ment, on the other hand, the resources of the country were undeveloped, mines and manufactures were reduced almost to a standstill, and the treasury was worse than empty—its ouly possession being a large and annually increasing deficit. These are facts, gentlemen; if any one be disposed to doubt them, I sball have much pleasure when we meet, in proving them beyond dispute, and I trust to the good sense and patriotism of the Electors of Queen’s County not to aid in put- ting men in pewer whose manifest incapacity reduced our country to the confines of ruin. The attacks of the Opposition on the policy adopted by thé Government for the building of the Canada Pacific Railway and the devel- opment of the Great North-West, are effectu- aly and most satisfactorily answered, and the wisdom of that policy triumphantly confirmed by the vast and daily stream of immigration now pouring into that great and increasing fertile portion of our courtry. The question of our claim toa portion of the Fishery Award is one of great difficulty, chi fly due to the fact that the Terms of Union agreed to by the Laird-Hayth=rne Delegation stipulated that the other Pro- vinces shou'd participate equally in the Award with this Island, and to the fact that our distinctive claim wes not urged before the Fishery Commis- sion. I helieve, however, that there is still a chance of onr receiving a portion; and, if elected, I wiil use every effort to see that justice is done in this matter. I very nauch regret that time will not permit me the pleasure of personally soliciting your suffrages; but if youdo me the honor of return- ing me as one cf your representatives, I will justify your confidence by striving, to the utmost of my power, to further the interests of this County, of the Island, and of this Canada of Ours l am, gentlemen, With every consideration, Yours truly, J, T.
