Premier fdathleson in Reviewing Situation An-

Charles Dalton to the Sanatorium. A
TUESDAY. March 23, 1915,
The House resumed today at 3.30 p.
nr, Mr. Speaker Wyatt in the chair
prayers having been said and the
.lournal read, the first order of the day
was taken up-the debate on tlte
Speech from the Throne.
TIIE PREMIER said: The custom
which has always been followed in
this House, as far as my experience
goes, anti 1 think so far as precetlent
goes, is that after the mover and the
seconder of the address in reply. to the
speech front the Throne have conclud-
ed their speeches, the leader of the
Oppositlon shall reply. Itt this case,
unfortunately, the hon, leader ot' the
opposition is not able to be present.
Today is the funeral of ltis brother,
the late James W. Richards, front ltis
hontr in Port I-llil. We had hoped,
wlteit the House atljourucd, that the
funcral would have been over in tinte
to allow tho hon. gentleman to bc pre-
sent lo take his place in this tichatc,
but the delays ln crossing prt‘.vcutctl
tliut. l spoke to Mr. John ltlchards
yesterday morning, and while he ex-
pressed his appreciatloii of the action
that had been taken by the House in
adjourning ottt of respect to tltc dc-
ceasctl, who ltutl sat here for so many
years us 0. member of the Government,
and as a member of the I-louse, he saitl
tliiu ho did not desire to bc present
on the occasion of this debate and pro-
poed that it shoutl proceed in his ab-
stutce. He will, of course, at it later
tintc, on the Budget and on the oc-
casion of any Bills that may be ititro-
ducctl iii the House. httvc full oppor-
luiiity oi' discussing public questions.
lti his absence I will proceed to make
it t'ew remarks on the address. My
position, for tlto reason stated. is un-
usual, inasmuch as l have nothing to
reply to, and the ground was
exceedingly well covered by
ilte mover and secoudcr of tite
address. Those gentlemen deserve the
sincere compliments ot' this llouse for
the excellent form in which their
speeches were delivered, for the evi-
dent eare and attention they had
bestowed upon those sfspeclies, und
t`or the large aiitotutt of valuable in-
formation which they contained.
THE GREAT WAR

iirst anti most prominent feature of
tht- Speech, tliosc gentlenicn dealt
with the subject in such it way ns to
leave very little to be saitl that would
tend to illuminate it. l may call at-
tention, more by way of enipliusls than
because the ground is uncovered, to
some oi’ tlte ntalti features of this war
anti of our relation to it. l tio not be-
lieve that any one of its up to the pre-
sent time has realized to any large ex-
tent tltat we are actually engaged in
it terrific war. that that war places
ltt peril everything that we value in
our civilizatloii. We are accustomed
to any this thing in various forms and
to hear it said in many forms, but
somehow _we feel, I ant afraid, as if we
were more spectators -interested
spectators-tltan actual participants.
Looking around in this House we can
sec two clialrs that are made vacant

ll is hard to inmginc anytlting more

rt-cord of at wnr in which hunianit_v
was callctl upon to suffer more ter-
ribl_v flinit in this one. We have some
grounds t'or satisfaction, and, first of
all is, tltai we not only think, bitt we

TH E CAUSE
The cause of this war has been re-
vicweti so well by thc hoti. member
front Ilelfast that it is quite unneces-
sary for me to cover flint ground. We
know that the stnietncnf, cotttaiiiotl in
the speech of l-lis lionour is true, that
Britain look up arms to protect the
weak against the strong; that noble
little country; Ilelgiunt, which froiti
thti earliest rcciiriis was nolt-tl l`or its
bruvc inen, ioiittv stands in the forc-
front of titc ltrinour roll of the world.
'i`hcy could, by sacrificing their prin-
ciples, luivc lain down and ict tho
florinnits march through tht-ir roun-
try. All flint. ihcy would havc had io
suffer in such .t cnsc would have been
tlisltonour. They woulii havc ivcakly
allowed their rights to be trampled
ltpon; they would li-.ivc pullcd down
their flag to another nation because it
was ntore powerful, and they might
hnve ucccptctl money as contpensit-
tion. llut to their everlasting credit
be it said, they faced thc dreadful
alternative, knowing wcli what they
faced. They have preserved their hon-
our, biit they have sufl'ered as wc
know of tio people ever having stiffer-
cd before; and still there is no voico
of regret rising front its oppressed
pcoplc; but rather, those who leatl
and those who are lctl, with one voice
say, “wc would rutlter have suffered
nil these drcatlful calamities than
that we would have avoided them by
allowing our enemy to trample upon
our rights and leave us s safe coun-
try and a safe people, but with tlto
reputation ol' a flag stained with cow-
ardice and tlislionour." There is noth-
ing liravcr. there is nothing nobler in
the history of all warfare than the
action of tho Belgians where they
were put to the proof as to whether
they would have peace with dlshoiiour.
or save their honour and enjoy all the
calamities of war.

Extension of Rural fllail Discusseii,'2,225 Rural Routes and l0,ti00 Boxes
Established by, Present Government. Amendment Suggested to
fliake it Criminal Offence to Send Money in Unregistered Letters.
(From Our Own Reporter)
OTTAWA, March 23.-The remark-
able extension of Free ltural Mail De-
livery since the Conservatives came
into power was shown by figures pre-
sented to the House last night by lion.
T. S. Casgraln during the discussion
of tlte Post Office Department.
From 1908 to 1911 there were estab-
lished 011 routes and 16,015 boxes.
Since the present Government came
into power there had been established
2,225 routes and 10,385 boxes.
Asked as to whether the service was
paying Mr. Casfrain replied that it
was not, and was not likely to. He
was unable to say just wluil. the loss
uit thc service would be for the year.
‘ HO E OF COMMO
for a statement in reference to tlte dc-
veloptnent of parcels post in Canada.
Mr. Casgrain said that the question
was tiow being studied by a number
,of officials ot’ tlte department with a
‘ view to tite future development, of the
service. Personally he had not yct
had the opportunity to take the matter
‘up but intcndetl to do so. The service
. had been greatly cxtentletl in Toronto,
‘where it is made more itse ot' than
elsewhere in Canada. There had al-
so been tzonsidoritlilc development in
the Province of Quebec. The depart-
ment, he said. is sending officials
through the country to explain the nd-
vantage of using llic niails for parcels
to the people.
W. l“. Matfhean asked thc Minister; i". ll. Carve-li said ht- tlcsircd to
intake the suggestion that parcel post
charges should be cut in two. li' they
were lower than express cltnrgcs the
department would get the business.
“I am ini'orined that except in few
cases our charges are below those of
the express companies now,” said the
Posttnaster-General.
“Just slightly below," observed Mi‘.
Carvell.
D. A. Lafurno suggested that the
criminal code be ainentled so as to
make it u. criminal offence for anyone
to .send tt letter through the mails con-
taining nioncy withoilt registering it.
Ile said the practice ol' risking muncy
in ordinary letters was ri great tciiipin-
tion whicli should not bc plnccd in
thc way oi` the ntcn in the service.

THE Blililll] [il Hl_itlH
/in adjourned meeting ol' thc lloiirtl
of lit-itlth was lit-ld last evening, ills
Worship thc Mayor presiding.
The meeting was heltl for the pitr-
pose oi' taking up the matter of meat
and milk inspection for the city. Dr
Joltitsoii mt-itle a proposition for ln-
speotlon of ment anti poultry. Dr Mc-
Millan was present anti stnfeti tltat as
l’rovini-ini Heath Oillt-cr he had occa-
sion in visit niaity slaughter iiouscs.
lic thought that the less said
the better. Meat inspection was not
-jroposctl for thc purpose of inlurlng
butchers or uteat dealers, but in tho
interest ot` the public lionltlt. llc
thouglit that poultry should be includ-
ed in thc proposed inspection. Dr Mc-
Millan thought that if it could be
arranged to co-operate with the Pro-
vinciai Government in some scheme
of inspection this might help to solve
the problem. lt was moved by Coun-
cillor Riley and seconded by Council-
lor Jenkins:
“ Resolved that a committee of three
be appointed from this Board with
power to add some of the principal
city meat dealers to their number. and
also the Provincial and City Health
Odicers, said committee to wait. upon
the Provincial Government and re-
quest their co-opleratioii in a plan for
meat and poultry inspection."
His Worship appointed the follow-
ing committee:-Messrs McNevin.
