Tre policy of Mr. Laurier is so indefin ite and uncertain that it is as indeseribable as itis, under existing conditions, imprac ticable. Briefly it may, perhaps, best get forth as a“ revenue tariff upon free trade lines.” This sounds well. But let us see how such a tariff would work. Such atariff would involve the abolition duties upon grain and breadstuff:, tlie re- duction of j duties upon manufacture coods, and a considerable corresponding mcrease of the duties upon tea, coffee, a ond ott tic] biel 4 | will be held to.night. tepresentatives to Sugar and other articies whic cannot e | } " , she — Grand Lodge, whieh meets to-morrow grown or produced in thie country.

In addition to this we should necessarily have te pay higher prices for our tea and sugar @od other such articles as are purchased abroad ; for in necessarily respect to sueh : : things, inve which element of home tme con; petition cannot come, the duty is of necessity added tothe price. Further, if the results which followed tariff tinkering in the United States should follow here— if there should be a great depression of manufactures and trade and a correspond- ing loss of revenue—the loss of revenve would have to be made up by resort io direct taxation, cr, after the manner of Mr b } Peters, by borrowing fromthe banks and by debentures, Now let us shortiy examine the policy of the present Goveroment wit « ‘ : ’ I e il nthe i g } ea THE DAILY Great Britain the more | | | | ther kind.—m. w. f. wkly—l y | Scott Act Sermon ou Sunday evening last, | scribed for medicinal purposes by his med- ' ited States in which = similar lities are obtained Those higher those prices are, consequently, dependent upon ntenance of the present rate of the inties.

Your tem perance people may save their appiause, since at Kideau Hall, atthe rec-ptiona few hours later, there was anv vuantity of “hes.” ; The Island people will be pleased at the announcement that Hon, Mr, Ferguson is to represent the Minister ot Agr.culture in the Senate, and to co-operate with Dr. Montague in administering the affairs of that important department. Short of having Mr. Ferguson in charge of a port folio, the arrangement is an excellent one, and of Mr. Fergason’s peculiar fitness for the position there can be but one opin-en. lust now there is no department of state n which your people have so great an in erest as in that of Agriculture, and the selection of Senator Ferguson ae coadjutor to Dr. Montague is one on which I[sland- ers may well congratulate both themselv«s and the Government, The comments of the Patriot upon the announcement areamusing. Time was, not so very long ago, when Mr. Ferguson was not the fine fellow the Liberal organ now considers him, when it never tired ot assailing him with grogsly opprobrious language. We are glad to observe the change, the more so as we believe it to be sincere, and that the Patriot is honestly pleased to see Mr. Ferguson in the cab— inet, where his knowledge and experience can be of service, Provinge but to the Dominion at large. Yet it ie diffleult for the Patriot, which so jong has travelled in devious paths, and with doubtful c pany, to ay pree ate pub- lic spirit in any person, or to understan la service being rendered to the State with- out a d pro Whether or not conversion be instantaneous or a matter of time. we tru-t that, in the care of the Patriot, the process will be evffi- to contem held al evening, and dinner was not ooly to his own geneous qu wo ciently thorough to enable it plate public services rendered by @ public man, apart from the sordid eonsideration of how much money he receives therefor. The Patriot is because it does not appear that Mr. Ferguaon is to be paid for representing the department of Agriculture in the Senate, {tis ngthing new, however. for Mr. Ferguson to give his services gratuitously to the public; he has been doiug so ever since he became a member of the Cabinet a year ago The improved mail and passenger service, by sieamer and railway, which the Island enjoyed la t summer, was solely owing to his exertions and his influence as an un- paid member of the government; £0 also was the reduction in passenger and freight concerne i rates on the Stanley, There can be no doubt, either, that his presence in the ministry has had much to do with the marked attention paid to dairy interest» on the Teland, which has already pat thousands of dollars in the farmers’ poc kets ard laid the foundation of a vast aid remunerative indu-try. Yet for these services, to say nothing of less important ones, Mr. Ferguson ha3 received exactly the same pecupiary Compensation as Mr. | Perry. In his new capacity, associated { with the Minister of Agriculture, his op | portunities for looking after the interests {of the I-land are expanded, whi'e it is ! well understood that, should the finances | continue to lupproye as they have been doing, the Governrent will feel warranted in resuming its policy of encouraging railway extension, an] an appropriation will be brought down dur- ing the present session for the construc- tion ef the Belfast Railway. The question which chiefly interests tne people is what advantage a representative in the Cabinet ie te his province, and not the amount of cold gash he can grab for himself. Grit doe’rine, however, is found ed on an entirely contrary view, and we need not search far for proofs. The first Cabinet Minister the Island bad, deserted his post when an_ opportunity for preferment offered, and hie was not a Conservative either. In the event of the ‘succession of the Lib- erals to power—a calamity deplorable to contemplate—Mr. Davies will probably enter the new cabinet. How gratuitously his services have hitherto been given to his country the public records bear authentic witness, How unself-hly he spent himeelf on tbheHalifax Fishery Commission for the paltry sum of $7,006, and the diffjdence he showed hefore he could be persuaded to accept $8,009 more, are matters of history which can be verified by a reference to Hansard. The Patriot says, “Let us put the Lib- erals in power and this province will soon have a cabinet minister.” How strongly these words :esemble the invitation held out to the Islanders by Mr. Davies when Mr. Lair! retired from the McKenzie cab- inet in L876. At meeting after meeting previous to the bye-election Mr. Davies assured the people that the Government from the Island, and that they would haye a minister irrespective of the question whether Mr. Welsh was elected or not How indignant Mr. Davies waxed when it was pointed out that Hon.

The Political Situation Practi- cally Unchanged. —— TUPPER AND THE PREMIERSHIP. Sir Mackenzie Bowell Dafends the High Commission:r. Ortawa, Jan. 9. The political situation is practically unchanged from yesterday, and it is still one of great and grave uncertainty. It was fully expected that the Premier would have male an offisial announc- ment last night, but owing to the sudden death cf Senator K:ulbach the S-nate has adjourned out of respect to the deceased. Not until this afternoon, therefore, will it be definitely known what course Sir Mackenzie intends to pureue. Very contradictory reports are in cireu- lation. By a few people it is said that the Premier will eueceed in filling the vacant portfolios. The great mejority of mem- bers, however, inc'ine to the belief that Sir Mackenzie will resign. In aepeech last night, Sir Mackenzie Bowell withdrew certain expressions which he made agaist Fq-ter yesterday, and de- fended the High Commissioner from the charge that he had come out from Eng- land for the purpose of eupplanting him as Premier. Sir Charles Tupp*r came out in re- Spence toa cablegram sent by Sir Mac- kenzie Bowell, and it would not be a mat ter§ cf surprise, in considering allthe cir- cumstances as they stand, if by 3 o’clock to-day Bowell were no longer Premier, and that Sir Charles lupper were engag- ed in the task of forming a ministry. Sir John Carling Las refused the Sen- atorship. He ie not willing to put Lon- dou to the expense of two elections with in six months, In the Senate yesterday Hen. Mr, Bowell referred to the sudden and lamented d-ath of Senator Kaul- bach, and then asked that the House adjourn till this afternoon, when he would state the course the Governinent intenda to pursue. lu the Commons the anonymous letter matter was discussed by Messre.
