Be a a THE TUNNEL Our Delegates’ Memorial Able Presentation of the Case Convincing Facts and Figures. Under Favorable Consideration To His Excellency the Right Honourable Sir Frederick Arthur Stanley, Barun Stanley of Preston, G. C. B., Governur- General of Canada. The undersigned have the honor, in view of the recurrence during the present winter of must serious interruptions in the com- munication between Prince Edward Island and the Mainland, and having reference to the representations which have, from time 51 | to time, been made to the Federal Govern- 1 15\10 55| ment regarding the non-fulfilment of the terms of Confederation in the matter of steam communication, and the exceptional position of Prince Edward Is!and regarding public works, to present the following facts and circumstances for the consideration of DK. GEO. A. BAYNES, the Government of Canada. The experience of the present winter plainly demonstrates that the steamer Stan- ley, although an exceedingly weil-designed ‘and well-constructed boat, and one which , has performed much better service than her | predecessors, cannot, in winters of ordinary » severity, «ffect regular communication, or in fact continue to ply at all during the | colder months of such winters. The par- itiaily successful navigation of the Straits during the winters of 1889 and 1890 was due tu the fact that these winters were the mildest which have itime Provinces. ye The utter impossibility of effecting regu- lar communication by navigation being ce- the Federal ACURE IS CERTAIN ——IN EVERY CASE—— PWhea a Faithful Trial is Given ——TO— WOODILL’S Worm Lozenges. aovl2 Settlement to Dec, 31st, 1990, telves expense.

The recent discovery of greatly improved appliances for tunnelling operations, and the information aow obtained showing the exceedingly favorable nature of the material to be penetrated by the proposed tunnel, | remove the very serious objection hitherto ‘entertained on the ground that the work would cost a Jarger sum than the Dominion Government could be reasouably asked to spend. In support of this opinion, the undersigned have the honour to sub- mit the result of an eXaminatiun of the geolog:cal formation of buth sides of the Straits of Northumberland by Mr. Francis Bain, a competent geologist, whose report is fully endorsed by Sir Wiiliam Daw- son, (see appendix [X A ) From this report it will be fuund that the strata at this point indicated present no difficulty what- ever, that the formation is almost entirely of shale and is as favorable for the purpose: of constructing a tunnel as could possibly be desired. | Mr. Bain’s examination was made in No- vember last in compavy with Mr Alfred Palmer, consulting engineer for Sir Douglas Fox, of London, Eog.and, and the enquiry embraced an examination of the brick clays of the Island, some of which are believed to be absulutely free from lime, and, there- fore, suitable for lining the tunnel, in which case the use of iron could be dis- pensed with and the cost of the work great- ly reduced. All the data collected by Messrs. Palmer and Bain, together with Sir William Daw son's opinion and also specimens of brick and brick clay have been furmshed to Sir Douglas Fox, and the undersigned trust that the Government will, at an early day, be in possession of the estimate of the cost of the tunuel by that eminent engineer. Should this estimate show that the werk can be completed at & cost of about $6,- 000,000, the undersigned submit that 1 | would be in the interest of Canada to ‘undertake it without any delay. Besides the indirect advantges of the tun- nel to Csnada in the settlement of a con- truversy with a member of the coufedera- tion and the uvercoming of this great na- tural obstacle to the prosperity of Prince Edward Island, the Dominion would save large amount Low expended in the main- tenance of the winter service, a very large sum would be received as net earningsofthe tuonel, and the immensely increased traffic on Government railroads would undoubted: ly wipe out the loss on the Prince Edward Island road, and greatly increase the earn- ings of the {utercolonial railway. | Thecustoms returnsshow onlya very small part of the trade of Prince Edward Island most of which 18 carried on with the sister provinces of Canada. Some idea of the mag- nitude of the Islsnd’s trade may be gather- ed from the fact that, as a result of the Masters’ reports in the Custom Houses = at Charlutretown and Summerside, mate in 1883 | under the direction of the Provincial Gov- ernment, it was found that the exports of Dominion and — countries for the year ended 30h June, 1882, amounted in value to $3.476,763, be- sides a considerable quantity shipped in ama!l craft, and not required to report at the Custom House. Presuming that the | imports from all quarters equal the exports, occurred within the! memory of the oldest inhabitant of the Mar-/ | monst raved, the undersigned respectfully ask | ‘and making a reasonable allowance for the | undoubted expansion of trade since 1882, ‘there cannot be any doubt that the entire | trade of Prince Edward Island at the pre-, sent time is not less than $10,000.000 an- | nually From the great saving of expense |}in haudiing and loss from breakage, as well ;a8 Convenience in the transportation of live lstock, the principal parcof the Island’s }suumer trade would go through the tunnel, ‘while the entire winter trade would, of necessity, gothreugh the same channel. Assuming that three-fifths of the trade of the Island, or $6 000,000 worth, would pass through the tunnel, a smill rate of 1} per cent. would yield $90,000 a year. There are no means of ascertaining what | the passenger traflic with the Mainland is at the present time, but there can be no} doubt that it would enormously incresse if the tunnel were constructed, and that its almost entire volume, summer and winter, would pass in that way. passengers would secm a very m der- ate estimate. At $1.50 each, the passen- ger receipts would, at this estimate, reach $15,000 per year. As the expenses of management and re- pairs would be very smali, the undersigned submit that at least $100,000 a year would be received as net earnings of the tunnel at to assume that both freight and passenger traffic would rapidly increase with the facil- ities the tunnel weuld afford. As illustrating the loss which Prince Ed ward Island suffers from the want of con- stant Cummunication, the trade in potatoes may be part cularly referred to. By the census of 1881, the potato crop of the Prov- ince was shown to amount to 6,042,191 bushels, and the undersigned fuily believe that that the census ol the present year will show at least a crop of 8,000,000 bush- els. The proportion of the crop sent away is regulated bythe price. The average price paid to the Prince Edward Island far- mer, a8 shown by the Customs valuation for the years 1887, 1888 and 1889 was 221 cents per bushel In the same years the customs valuations show the price received by the Nova ~ cotia farmerto be 44 cts per bushel and 37} cents aa the price ‘paid to the New Brunswick farmer. The low price received by the Prince Edward Island farmer is mainly due to the fact that he is obliged to make a@ forced sa'e of his crop ia the few weeks that intervene between the potato harvest and the close of naviga'ion at a time when the product is not sufficiently matured for transportatioa. M«king due allowance for the greater proximity of the maioland farmer to the provincial cities and towns as “ell as to the markets of the West | Indies and tne United srates, it cannot be ‘doubted that at least 10 cents ,ner bushel, would be added to the prce of potatoes in Prince Fdward Island if the farmer had access , to the outside markets all the year round | As the increased price would largely stimu- late production it can easily be seen how much Prince Edward Island would gain on this article alone, and «lso, how considerable would be the earnings of the tunnel at even the low rate of one cent per bushel In years of average crop our su:pius under the in fluence of good prices would not be less than 4,000,000 of bushels, at least one half of which | would pase through the tunnel. The greater part of the inward as well as the outward trade of the Island, wou'd be drawn by the tunnel to the government railways not only saving the loss now inured in running the Prince Edward Island Road, but also materi- ally reducing the less on the Intercolopial . Railway. The amounts which the Federal governm-nt : would save or gain by the construction of the tunnel might be stated as follows ; Excess of expenditure over receipts for winter ice boat & steam se: vice average for years 1-87, 1888 & 18-9 $15 875 ‘Interest on cost of steaner........ > 5,448 Allow 10 per cent. depreciation..... 14,259 Allow 10 per cent. insurance........ 14,359 Average loss on P, E.

The undersigned further submit that should it be found necessary to expend on the con- struction of the tannel a larger sum than the princip»l amount represented by $729,036, considerations drawn from the exceptional position of Prince Edward Is!and in the mat- ter of public works would fully warrant that further expenditure The terms upon which Prince Edward Is- land was admitted into the Confederation pro- vided ** That in consideration of the large ex- penditure authorized by the Parliament of Uanada for the construction of railways and canals, and in view of the possibility of a re- adjustment of the financial arrangements be- tween (anada and the several provinces now embraced in the Dominion as “ell as the isola- lated and exceptional condition of Prince Ed- ward Island that colony shall, on entering the union be entitled to incur a debt equal to fifty dollars per heat of the population «8 shown b the censas returns of 1871, that is to say, $4.701,050.” s When ‘hese terms of union were being ne- gotiated the only public works of importance contemplated by the general gove nment were the completion of tne Intercoloni+l Railway, the construction of the Canada Pacitic Railway and the enlargement of the canals and ‘the large expenditure authoria-d for the construc- tion of railways and canals,” was definitely estimated at the following amounts : Intercolonial Railway, to complete $19,466,667 Canada Pacific Railway, to con- Struct .....e cece seeccccces 30,000,000 Canals, to evlarge.......+- eeeee 8,933,533 Total.......... $58,400,v00 The accounts, however, show that these estimates have not only been largely exceeded, but that very considerable sums have also been expended in the construction of other pubic works which were not contemplited at the Ten thousand | the outset, and i! would be quite reasonable. and which were not.considered when the terins of union were sett'ed.

Upon the consideration ot these representa- tions an Order-in-Council was passed on March 22nd. 1887, recommending that tor reas~ns therein set forth en additional annual subsidy of $20,000 be granted Prince Edward Island, which reasons are as follows :— ‘Ist. From the insular position of the Pro- vince they (the Governor in Council) are of opinion that the construction of the Pacific Raiiway and of the Intercol nial Riilway has no: affected it te the same extent that it has the other Provinces, and the Island has not had the benefit of the advantages which accrue to the other Provinces from these lines, and on this ground it is entitled to some consider- ation. 2ud. The Sub-Committee think also that consideration should be shown on account of expenditure for the construction of the above na'ed rai'ways having been greater thin was anticipated at the time these works were taken into ¢gatemplation and the terms upon which Prints Edward Island entered the Union having been, in a great measure, based upon the estimates then formed for the com pietion of these roads. ‘3rd. The subsidies granted to the other Previnces . p to the present time in carrying out the rai gw+y policy of the Government, in the wayof Go to local railways, have not as yet been” Edwari reve Sh this policy, whe other Provinces forming the Union have in this manner larg: ly benefitted.” In pursuance of the said Order-in-Council, an Act of Parliament was passed, 150-151 Vic , Cap 8, authorizing the said additional annual snbsidy. The undersigned submit that the Government of Canada, impressed with the weight of the representations made ov behalf of Prince Edward Island by p-ssing the said Order-in-Council and obtaining from Parliament the additional annual subsidy. admitted the validity of Prince Edward Island’s claim, and acknowledged that there were circumstanccs connected with the Island’s position in the Union which entitled it to com- pensation. The undersigned, however, submit that the additional annual subsidy of $20,000 is net an adequate compensation, and that « careful and impartial consideration of the case will convince the General Government that in order to deal justly with Prince Edward Island, the compensation should be increased. The statement set forth in this memorandum shows that over $90,312,937 have been expended in excess of the amount con- terplated in 1873 The population of Princ Edward Island bearing the proportion te the entire population -f Canada of 1 to 39, the undersi ned submit that the Island should participate in the benefit and advantages arising from such public expenditure in a like propor’ ion. The claim of Prince Edward Island, regard- ing public works may be stated as follows : Expenditure on railways and Can- ais in excess of amount *uthor- ized in 1873, $90.312,927; Is- land’s share of same, one thirty- RN chin nbvens wikaeued bnwer $2,315,716 Less capital acct.

The undersigned desire respectfully and finally to claim that should the cost of the tunnel be found too high to justify its being undertaken by the Federal Gov- ernment, the sum of $47,527 should be an- nually paid to the Provincial Government of Prince Edward Island to compensate the Pro- vince for the burdens it is :equired to bear in contributing to the cons' nction of Railways and Canals in the beneti-.» -i which it does not 1 ticipate. P'The eae of Prince Edward Island, already decpiy dissatis-ed on account of the failure of the Dominion Government to give them the continuous commanication guaran- teed at Contederation, and being required to contribute tothe ost of the Railways and time ef the adusission of Prince bdward Island, Cauale ia the ether Provinees while they have: been charged with the full cost of their own Railway, feel that a still greater wrong would be done them if they were forced to supple- ment the Provincial revenue by di:ect tax- ation, Should the Dominion Government under- take the construetion of the preposed tunm I, and thus p’t the Island on au «qual footing with its sister Provinces, it weult be fuliy able and willing to meet ali the obligations res'ing upon it as a member of the Con- federaiion.

Experimenting with a severe cold, now try- ing this remedy a d then that, is dangerous business; for like lightning one can vever tell where a cold may strike or finally settle, It may locate in the head and cause severe nasal catarrh; it inay locate in the throat or large bronchial tubes, causing sore throat, laryngitis, bronchitis, and covsumption ; it may locate in the pleura, producing dangerous pleuro-pneumonia ; it may locate in the mus- cles, causing pains and aches, only equaled by rheumatism, or it may locate in the smail bronchial tubes or air celle of the lungs, causing lobar-pneumonia, the most to be dreaded of ail resuits trom a cold. There is a right way to everything, so there is a ration- al treatment for a cvld, which must be cured promptly. The first result from a cold is the retardation of every secre ive function in the body. fore, the first thing to be done is to restore the functions of these organs. Because of its effect upon the skin, the old fashioned ‘rum sweat” wasan excellent method to restore the action of the pores of the skin. But it is a dangerous method to use, because so few people are wiling to cunfine themse!ves to the house long enough to recover, and t.. ex- | pose one’s self immediately after a sweat or | warm bath, is risking your life. In treatin ‘a cold among active people some cnthal must be used that will admit of a person attending to thir daily labor as usual. Among such peope, piobabiy more colds, more cases of catarrh, bronch:tis, sore throat, cough and hoarsness, having been cured by the use of Johnson's Anodyne Liviment ‘han any other remedy known.
