pis “ge RNR NR NE ES TE THE DAILY EXAMINER. - - Imperial Federation | FIREMEN'S TOURMAMEAT ——_ -——— Dr- Wilson’s Lecture | ——— Short Summary Report Mr, ~_— — Da. Wison's lecture of last evening upovu this great subject was one of the most eloquent that has been delivered in Charlottetown for many «8 day. Notwithstanding all the noises and distrac- tions of the hour, Dr. Wilson held the un divided attention of his hearers. He first enumerated the numerous countries and communities, the vast regions, which now make up the British Empire, as whole, and said that what the heart is to the body the mother country is to the rest of the Empire. In view of the fate of other na- tious, the futare of this great world wide nation may well be regarded with anxiety. The British Colonies cannot long coutinue in their present relationship to the Mother It is impossible that 30,000,000 country. ; of people can continue to direct the political destinies and decide the importent interests of 400,000,000 people. There seems to be but three courses opened for the Colonies: 1st, absorption in neighboring and kindred nations; 2ad, independeace ; and 3rd, Imperial Federa- tion. In the first and second cases, the mother country, shorn of her possessions, would sink back to the position she «c- eapied three or four hundred years ago if absorption ensue, we in Canada will al- most eertainly be annexed to the ( nited States and be ruled by the irresponsible and unsympathetic Government at Wash- ington, If we should try independence, we in Canada shall be confronted by 4 grasping and unscrupul us nation of 60,000,000 and be compelled to maintain our army and navy and all the costs inci- dent to an independent existence, while subjected to the caprices of cur formidable neighbor. Independence might, perhaps, be possible a hundred yearshence, —batnot now. But if we united in an Imperial Federation with Great Britain, both Great tritain and the Colonies will be politically strengthened and commercially advantaged ; moreover, the strongest guarantee for the continued existence of British iastitutions, which we prize and iove, will be afforded. That there are difficulties in the way of such an union, is undeniable. Bu‘ what difficulty has ever daunted the Beritish people! At every crisis, 8 man—a states- man or a soldier—has been found to lead the people onward, and the difficulties | The wide extent of | have beep overcome. the British Empire would, at one time, have involved a difficulty in the way cf | this difficulty | imperial Federation. But will hardly be looked at now, when steam and electricity have obliterated distance, and when the most distant points are in constant touch with each other. Imperial Federation is to be promoted upon the grounds of both sentiment and interest. The means and methods by which it may be effected and worked out are not yet fully apparent. Sir Charles Tupper has proposed an Advisory Council, representative of the Colonies, but this does not seem to meet all the the requirements of the case. It is also believed that mach may be done by means of preferential duties so arranged as to mutually advantage the Mother Country and her Colonies. Ata time when the trade of the Mother Country end the Colonies alike is met and h»mpered by the hostile tariffs of Gardiner’s Forcible Speech. | 1892 . THURSDAY, JUNE 30 —— ‘A Fine Day foreign nations, this course seems the more | obvious. This was, in brief, the l-c*turer’s argument. His Worship the Mayor, who presided, said that however the great question discussed by the lecturer might be regarded, all would agree that Dr. Wilson had afforded a rich intellectual treat. iecturer a hearty and unanimous expression of the thanks of the audience. Mr. Mellish and Mr. A MeNcil', Hon. Donald Farquharson and Hon David Laird, Dr. McLeod and C. ©. Gardiner, Esq., Dr. Jenkins aud Mr. P. Blake continued the die- cussion until a late hour. Hon. Donald Farquharson and Hon. David Laird made some remarks bearing upon our trade relations, which drew forth a forcible and convincing reply from Mr. C. C. Gardiner. Mr. Gardiner pointed out that the trade conditions which exiated at the time of the old reciprocity treaty with the United States exist no longer. Of this fact he was personally aware, having gone over the ground before and since. When our people made money under reciprocity the great plains of the west were known only to Fremont and the Indians. We then had only the products of the Northern and Middle Stares to compete with. A great part of California was a desert twenty years ago. Now the western plains are the great sources of supply for all food pro- ducts ; and $300 to $600 per acre are ob- tained in California from the growth of oranges. When he was first in California the bread which the people ate was obtained by importations round the Horn a distance of 30,000 miles ; when he was last in California he saw in one small harbor, scarcely larger than North River, twenty-four large ships waiting to be filled with the wheat of this year’s crop, and carry it away to England. Every food product in the West is now at least 20 per cent. cheaper than it is in the East. he West has the advantage of soil and climate to such an extent that the farming districts of Maine and Vermont and other New Eng- land States have been almost depopulated. He could buy and ee more cheaply in the Western States than in P. E. Island, With reciprocity now the cheap products of the West would be in free competition with our products; and eur farmers would be driven out of their own markets as are the farmers of the Eastern States. The great market for the States as for us, is Great Britain. But because England is wedded to the free trade policy, and the States have fiee admission to her markets, the Uaited States have taken ad- vantage of her to protect their own manu. factures against the products of her manu- facturers. If Great Britain were to retaliate, which she might do if she gave a preference to her Colonies, the United States would soon reduce their scale of protective duties, and both Great Britaia and Canada would be benefited. This was the gist of Mr. Giardiner’s forcibie and conclusive address. We regret that our He conveyed to the learned | and a Good Display. Procession of Firemen and Vilitiamen. ~_—_— - > Handsome Decorations and Excellent Music. — oe V siting Firemen and Others Entertained at Dinner. -_— Tue tirst day of the firemen’s tcurna- ment ! The weather is beautifully fine—good enough to have been raade to order. The local firemen are jubilant, and their visiturs are more than delighted. If to-morrow is as fine and clear as to- day—and everything points that way— what a time there will be at the park ! The visiting firemen from Halifax, Truro, Awherst, Antigonish, St. John, Fredericton, St. Stephen, Moncton and other places arrived in the city by train and steamboat last evening shortly after 8 o'clock. The St. John contingent brought a band of music, and there is also a hose reel each from Halifax and Truro. Oa their arrival in the city the visitors were met by Chief Engineer Lirge and his able assistants Messrs. Hermans and Beer, with Galbraith’s Band, and escorted to their quirters. The streets in the neighborhood of the wharf and railway station were thronged with people, and the excellent music discoursed by the bands and the spiendid appearance on parade of the visitors was fsvorably commented upc n Many of the visiting firemen called upon the home brigade at centysl station laat night, and were well received. The interior of the station had been newly psinted up and pre- sented a splendid appearance. Silsby com pany'’s room had been newly ca’ peted and curtained and handsome pictures were hung about the room, making the whole look very attractive and home like. An organ was also put in, upon which some good music was dis- coursed during the evening and to-day. To-day the festivities begim with a pro- cession of firemen and militiamen, leaving central station about 1} o'clock. The oder of the procession was as follows ; Assistant Engineers in Carriages. S2nd Battalion Band under command cf Irving and Dogherty. St. John Artillery Band. St. John Firemen. St. Stephen Firemen. Fredericton Firemen. Moncton Firemen. Halifax Firemen, with parade Hose Reel. Amhers: Firemen Antigonish Firemen. Truro Firemen, with perade Hose Reel. Charlottetown Citizen’s Band. Salvage Corps with decorated wagon. Ho k and Ladder Company with decorated tiuck, Silsby Hose Company with decorated Ree’ and Engine. Rollo Hose Company with decorated Reel and Engine. Company Engice. Carriages containing Mayors Haviland and Chipman, The City Councillors and other guests of the Department. The Salvage Corps wagon was decorated very artistically. The design representd Military, Lieut.-Col’s. Tremoat Fie with decorated an Island surrounded by water. The Is- land was labelled ‘‘Abegweit,”’ the old Indian name of this Province. In the centre of the Island, which was strewn with fl »wers and ferns, was seated a little girl dressed in white holding in one hand a sheaf of wheat and in the other a sickle. On one part of the Island was a boat ap- parently hauled up out of the water, after a fishing excursion, and on the other was a plough, symbolical of the great agricultural resources of the province. In the water at each of the four corners of the Island were arranged four dolphins. On the back of each dolphin a little girl was seated, the idea being to represent mermaids. Two of these little girls were dressed in whites and twoin blue. Over the whole was a very neatly arranged canopy, above which was hung streamers of flowers. The painting was done by Mr. Crossman, and the decor- ating by members of the corps. The Hook and Ladder Truck decorating was more of apractical character, and was intended to illustrate the work the brave tire laddies have to perform while in the discharge of their duty. The display,which was a good feature of the turnoutf and was very favorsbly commented upon by all who saw it, consisted of a house en fire with the firemen at work on the burning _ build- ng. The printing showed the flames and smnoke issuing from the structure through the doors and windows and a brave fire- man in the act of rescuing a child that was in danger of perishing. Ox one end of the building a fireman was mounted on a ladder with hove in hand, and on the other end was another fireman armed with an axe in the act of cutting a hole in the house When the building is illuminated, as it will be in the procession to-night, the ef- fect will be even greater than it was this forenoon. The painting ia this case was also done by Mr, Crossin in, Rollo Hose Company had their large wagon beautifully decorated.

Under the ‘anopy, in the centre of a bower of gr en plentifully adorned with flowers, wer: seated three little girls appropriately lressed, repre- senting the three Pr vinces — Nova Seotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. Around the wagon in black letters on a white ground was th gre eting, ‘‘A Hearty Welcome to our S ‘ter Provinces.” The wagon was decorated by the members of the company. Tremont fire would hardly be recognized i of flowers, ferns and spruce so artistically | was it “fitted” by Mr. Ch rles J. Patton, whom everyone now votes a ‘ real and geuu- ine” artist in the decorati g line. “Old | Tremont,” by reacon of it back number | appearance was nt easy to d: sorate, but Mr. Patton knew just how an where to place the arches of spruce, the wre ths of flowers, and the other decorations tou make it look well. j Tne two big steam engi: 2a-—Silsby and Rollo- were also xeatly and = 2stefully decor- ited with flowers and spruces the work being performed by me:abers of the -ompan’es.

MAcPHAIL <scennage ae Sila Rea ee am Excursion From Souris. The steamer Electra brought a party of excursionis's from Souris to Georgetawn and Montague on Monday, 27th mst Quite a number took advantage cf the lovely day and the pleasant evil, and the Souris band, looking remarkably well in their neat uniform, provided enlivening music on the way. On arrival at Montague the steamer was met by teams from the enterpzising hotel, keepers of Montague Bridge, and the visitors were soon comfort- ab‘y entertaine! st the Village Hu tel, kept by John J. McDonald, and the Dominion Hotel, of which Donal! McLacd is pro- prietor. Mr, McDonald entertained the band, and duriag the afternoon the boys gave him quite a serenade. About 6 o'clock in the evening the whistle sound- ed the recall, and after marching ‘across the bridge and through the principal street the party got on board again. The run to Georgetown was not very success- ful. The tide was very low and over an hour was lost waiting for higher water, but by 7 33 Georgetown was reschd. The Electra, having landed the contingent from Georgetown, proceeded to Souria where all were landed safely. Capt. McLiren cf the Electra is proving himself one of the most careful and capable ship masters in the Province, and the suc- cesa of the Three Rivers Steamship Co., is now fairly well assured. 2+ <-> Botary. — Dear Sir —1 send you a list of those who | passed the University Excension examination in Botany.
