Macdonald. I said: I r contract was signed that there was no conversation of this kind.’ ‘ Well,’ he said, ‘Tupper, I really do not remem- ber anything about it. I had such entire confidence In your management ‘Sir Charles had the effrontery to of railway matters that J] confess I did make a charge of this the fact that he himself at one time a poor medical practitioner, in Halifax, a man who made no in his profession, and yet to-day we find him one of the richest men in Canada. From politics, and from no other source under heaven did Sir Charles derive his wealth. Much of it, we know, was gained from the Can adian Pacific Railway Company.’ Now, sir, it would be impossible to | crowd more base, unfounded, and ma- licious falsehoods into a few lines than Mr. Arthur Peters succeeded in crowd- ing into this statement made on the floor of the legislature of Prince Ed | ward Island ; and as this matter has 'come up here I think it not improper to referto it. I fought the battle of the Canadian Pacific Railway contract /in this House, and subsequently it was | proved to a demonstration that we did not give enough to accomplish the work with all the monopolies and priv- ileges which that contract gave to the company; they were utterly broken down in 1884, and all the men with one single exception, were ready to throw up their hands and abandon ‘everything they had put into it, and give it up as a hopeless task. The | credit was assailed in New York by the | Northern Pacific Company, it was as- | sailed in London by the Grand Trunk | Railway Company, they were paralysed, they were unable to pay their men, was money ! | and the whole enterprise was in the ‘utmost peril, simply because, with all 'the concessions granted them, they could not carry their work through. | What did Ido? At the request of Sir | John A. Macdonald, I came out from England, I. came to this parliament, 'and I asked Parliament to lend them $30,000,000 more in order to prevent that work from becoming a wreck, and | to secure its prompt completion, and parliament granted the money.» Mr. Blake said: Do not call it a loan, you ' know it is a gift, you know we will never see a doilar of the money. The money was all repaid before it was due | | | and one of the most successful enter- | prises that has ever redounded to the honour and progress of Canada was that Canadian Pacific Railway enter prise. I say that unhesitatingly. | But I say that if there is a man in this country who is in a position to vindicate himself trom having forfeited his independence as a member cf this parliament in reference to that great work that man is myself. Why sir, the time came when the Canadian Pacihe Railway Company, nc doubt und! the impression that they were entiiled to it, made a claim on the governmen| of Canada for $5,000,000 In co. nec tion with that work, basing that clain upon statements made by mysell t them, as they recollected the state ments, at the time the contract was signed. Arbitration was resorted to, a body of high-minded and able a:bi- trators was appointed. The Hon Edward Blake was the advocate of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, and Mr. Christopher Robinson, a ver) eminent lawyer, defended the govern- ment against that claim. I was sent for to come out from England because I was the party who had made the contract, and with whom these conver- sations were alleged to have taken place upon which they had based their claim. I admitted frankly that about half a million dollars was practically due, because it would require some- thing like that sum to complete the work with the degree of efficiency that Dear Sire,—Within the part year 1 know of three fatty tumors on the heed having been removed by the application of MIN- ARD’S LINIMENT witbout any eurgical Op-ration and there is no indication of 6 return.

Now I ask whether I did not there and then give clear and incontrovertible evi- dence of my thorough independence asa public man. I may say here that nover with respect to anything I did for the Canadian Pacific Railway Com- pany in this House, or as a member of the Government of Canada, did any person connected with that great or- ganization ever insult me by the offer of the slightest compensation or return | whatever—because I should have treated it as nothing else than the grossest insult. This gentleman who appears to have studied my career with great care, says that I was a poor medical practitioner in Halifax. Well, I may have been a poor practitioner, because a man who is not skilful may be called a poor practitioner. But it he means to say that I was a poor man, his statements are false. I went tothe city of Hali- fax after fourteen years of laborious practice in my profession, where I had a great and most profitable practice ; I went to the city of Halifax as a public man, and when I took office in 1887 I was an indepencent man. ‘Therefore, the statement that I went there im- poverished is a falsehood of the most glaring character, as can be established in the most incontrovertible manner. When we were defeated at the end of three years, I went into practice in the city of Halifax, and at the end of a little over three years, when we carried the province from end to end, when there were only fifteen Liberal mem- bers elected in the whole province of Nova Scotia in a House of fifty-five members, I had at that time acquired s9 valuable and important a medical practice that I could not afford to give it up. It was worth three or four times what my salary as provincial secretary would be worth, and I was compelled to take a medical partner and to re- main in the profession, because I could not abandon my lucrative practice. I spent twenty-nine years of my life in the arduous practice of the medical profession, and it is not for me to say with what success. But I certainly never had reason to complain of a lack of lucrative practice wherever I was ngaged. So much for that falsehood. Then there is another greater and -till more monstrous falsehood in this Trouble in The Stomach Which Doctors Failed to Remove, Cured by less Than Two Boxes of Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills. The experience of Mr. Blackwell is similar to that of many sufferers with cpronie indigestion. Stomach medicines will seldom really cure indigestion. The kidneys and liver must be set right, and the bowels made regular and active, Mr. Joseph Blackwell, Holmesville, Cnt., says:—“I derived more benefit from the use of Dr. Chase’s Kidney- suiver Pills than from any other medi- cine I ever took, and can highly re- commend them for stomach troubles, I was in a terrible state and could hardly work at my trade. I tried most every kind of medicine and doctors, until I was tired doctoring, and bee fore I used one box of Dr. Chase’s Kid- ney-Liver Pills I could see that they were helping me, and after taking a box and a half, fourd that I was cured.” Nearly every family on the continent has used Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills or heard of the remarkable cures they have effected.

Ido not hesitate to say that I should he greatly ashamed of myself, if under those circumstances I was a pauper ; I should feel it would be a great reflection upon my character as a business man, which I always pro fess to be, and not only a_ business man but a great economist. I may say that when I was asked to take the position cf Prime Minister of Canada, I resigned positions of high character and standing in the city of s.ondon that gave me £900 sterling a year over and above the income I was receiving from the country. That was as direct or of the Bank of British Columbia, director of a cable Company, connect- ed with Brazil, and director of the General Mining Association, positions styles to choose from. ah Buggies, pics@n « Road Wagons, iy “ ~~ Surreys, Mike dos, Gladstones, Express Wagons, Farm Wagons, Dingle & Doubie deta in the city when youcan get which, instead of impairing my useful- ness to the country, I think greatly increased it, because they brought me into contact with men of standing and of character in hfe, and en- abled me to serve Canada more fuily than otherwise I could have done. sut when I took the position of Prime Minister 1 felt bound to relieve myself of all these obligations and connec- ;uons, and I did so.

Do not mistake me, Mr. Speaker, I do not deny Mr. Peters’ right, or the right of any man in this House, or even any man taking an interest in public affairs, if he knows that a man has dishonoured and degraded himself by attempting, as a member of the parliament of this country, to enrich himself, to make the charge public. | There is no higher crime, in my judg- oo a ment, which can be brought against annua income. 1] was, therefore. com- | pelled to accept positions in connec- ; ion with the development of our gold | mining industry in this country, in order to increase my annual income so as to enable me to discharge my duty to the great Liberal-Conservative party that had done me the honour to in- vest me with its leadership.
