Sir Jobn _M�±cdopzvld—1 have no objreo-
tion to Wake to the way this question has
been brought up. In common with every
lover of order. and freedom of speech, I
have telt iltecked at the accounts in the
newspapers of the violent outrage upon the
pereoue who met in Hull, uo•matter what
their purpose was, it it was legal. I have
no d'ouht that the authorities in he Prov-

to prevent the recurrence of such an unfor-
tunate outrage.
Mr. Laurier—I have reason to believe
that the auth et Rik s of Hull—Roman Oath.

everyone understand that freedom of opin-
ion and epeeoh must be respected.
114x. Wallace, in moving the second read-
ing ol', the_ _1311)- 6Q, incorporate.01,:t Qrand
Orange Lodge of British North America,
said: AB this is a subj:,ot whieh has ex-
citedit great deal of interest in the Boase
of Commons and in the country, I desire to
make a few remarks upon thio' Bill. The
Orange Association, Mr. Speaker, has en-
larged the scope of its usefulness, and re-
gtfires powers to -day which were not neces-
sary some yearn ago. I may say, sir, that
nearly every private lodge now, especially
those in the cities, have benefit schemes
' attached to them by -which -small sums of -
money are paid in,. and in return benefits
are paid out to members who are incapaoi-
- tated'frow following their ordinary calling.
We have also in the Province of Ontario
4 an insurance scheme, which is now de -
1 rapidly into large proportions, and
we re. vire to have Ge vernmental and Par-
iamentary sanction or our operations.
believe by a recent decision of the Minister
• ,of Justice that it will be ,impossible to
carry on . our . operations unless we have
a Dominion charter. He• has decided
^ that insurance operations must be carried
-on under a Dominion charter. I; have said
we, have an insuranoe Scheme in operation
in connection with the Orange Order. We
know, sir, that the Order of Grangers has
been inooporated by the House of Commons,
the Methodiet Church of Canada has re-
. •oeived an Act of Incorporation from the
House of Commons, and last year the Inde-
pendent Order - of Foresters received an Aot
'of Incorporation from thi3 House. We are
asking to -day for a similar Act ofInco_rpor-
ation. The bill which I have the honor to
bring before the house is exactly on the
same line as the bill .which wag passed for
the Independent Order of Foresters. Is was
- passed, I heliF-ve, unan'imously by the
House of Commons last year and by the
Senate. • We have adopted the same rules -
rules, I believe, which had been submitted
to the Fuperintendenit of Insurance for the
regulation of insurance schemes. We ask
the. Rouse of Commons to -day to grant an
Act of Incorporation to the Orangemen of
Canada, not as a favor; because
we do not come, and will not
cone, to any Parliament asking for special
favors. We dome and demand ; a right
which has been greeted to others -a right
which, by our standing in this country, by
our pest record, by the oonstitntion and
laws of our aseooietionl we believe we are
entitled to obtaie. a By theoonstitution the
objects of the association are declared. as
follows; " The Loyal1Orange Association
is formed of persona desirous of supporting
to the utmost of their power the principles
and practice of the Christian religion, and
of maintaining the laws and constitution
of the oouutry ; of affording assistanoe to
distreessd members of the association, and
otherwise of promoting such laudable bene=
finial purposes as may tend to the due order-
ing of religion and Christian charity, the
enpremeoy of,, law and order and oonstita-
tional freedom" . Now, Mr: Speaker, the
• regord of the Orange Order in Canada con=
forma with the part of the oonstitution'I
have jngt' read. Not only lathe constitution
or the Order open to iriepoction,, bet I have
in my band the prdaeedings of the- Grand
Orange Lodge of .British North America at
its Nat annual meeting at Gcderioh which
any hon, member may read. There are no
secrets about it. Therefore, I sae, this is
not a secret order today, Bat, . Mr.
Speaker, another objection was made to
the Orange Order being incorporated, when
it was before the Howie of- Commons. It
wan said that the association was political.
in its nature. Well; sir, that is an aseer
tion which Lam not called upon. pardon'. b
larly either to affirm or deny. Bat, sir, I.
have this to say,, if annexation is ever o
threatened to this Dominion,. if our insti-
tutions under which we have lived so
happily and so prosperonsly aretlireetened,' t
if connection= -between Canada-end.tbo,rest t
•of,the Britieh Erupire ie threatened, Yon f
will find that the Orange Association is
political and that every member will be i�
prepared to take 'Hideo. They, would give e
-no uncertain 'coded as to which side they. a

Mc. Charlton, in moving for a committee
io-investigate-the--exodus- from--Canada-to
the >•Ieite& ates, Baia_—..That; tea was_
consic(erable exodus, he supposed, would
not be disputed. One circumstance was
the slow growth of Canadian population.
Daring the decade between 1871 and 1881
the population.ff' fli nada increased from
3;635,000 to 4.324,000, about .18 per cent.,
while from 1870 to 1880 the population of
the United States inoreased-..from 35,558,-
000, to 50,155,000, or 30 per cent. This
showed that the population of the United
States had increased 11 per cent. more
rapidly than that of Canada. In view of
the fact that the natural increase of Cana -
diens was larger and that our immigration
was 46 per Dent. more per oapita than that
of the -United States, the conclusion was
that there was an exodus from this country.
During the ten 'years from 1870 to 1880 the
-pnmbereof nativ-e .Oanadiane, grew from.
232,000 to 712,362, or an inereaee of 47. per
cent. ased n the percentage during
those year; there wonla now ne 3,047,000
native born Canadians in the United
States. This was a direot loss,- bat ,there
was also the indirect or eongequential
lose. Tbe children of the Canadians
in the United States in - 1880 num-
bered 930,000. Then the lose •• of
mmigranta must be taken into account ..
In 1871 there were 582,668 foreign -born
-persons-in-Canada'- I -n- ' 18811 -there-were
598,388 foreignborn persons in Canada,
making an increase during those years of
15,720. Daring- those years 342,000 immi-
grants were brought into Canada. Allow-
ing for the death rate, at least 184,820 of.
these immigrants' must have gone to, the
States. The ohildr:n of these er ens in
en years wou . aggregate -240,000. Thus
from 1871-1881.we lost 53 per cent. of our
immigrants, At that rate of loss from
1880 to 1890 we would lose 346,000. making
in round numbers 500,000. The children
of these would number 1,150,000. 'Thus
the grand total of the lose, both direct and
cone�egnential, is 3,563,000.: This did not
take into ooneideration those 'who left
Canada prior , to 1871. What. was the
reason of this ? The Canadians were a
hardier race than those of the United
States. ' This country had unlimited
resources. There was no natural reason
why this exodus should exist. There must
be some evil'which should be remedied.
,be
Canada shewld 3s_a cenntr..•
eight and a half or nine millions ofspopu-
lation. It was the duty of the Government
tt) remedy any evils that might exist, and
therefore he moved that a committee be
appointed to consider the matter.
Mr. Carling said there was no necessity,.
for tlii9 oommittee,. because the Agricul-
tural Committee of the House were quite
able to deal with the matter. The figures
which the hon. gentleman had quoted were
unreliable. There ' was every indication
that the population of Canada was inoreae-
ing The railways were parrying ,more
passengers and more freight than ever. The
country was prospering, and he was sure
that when the next census was taken the
anticipations of the opposition. would not
be realized. He did, not think the appoint-
ment of a special committee would serve
any useful end.
Mr. Mille (Bothwell) 'said the Agrioul.
taral Committee was not the sort of a com-
mittee to inquire into such a qulestion as
Ink, and the proposition to refer it to that
committee was an attempt to buck inquiry.
Mr. Fisher charged that the exodus was
canoed by the policy of the Government.
Mr. Hessen said that if the farmers of
Canada were to be benefited the prioes in
the foreign makers mast be raised.

Mr, Mills remarked no mention was
made in the Speech from the lhroue that
he Government intended to make any
Iteration 'whatever in their fi3cal policy,
He ventured to predict that the- result
would be that the Government would come
own. ' 'The Premier had compelled Col.
O'Brien to make the painful choice between
is devotion to the government and hie

however, support the National Polley and

On.the.vote -for the ad -ministration of
justice,
Btr Richard Cartwright drew attention to
the fast that there ,were nine judges for
British Columbia, four of whom were
twenty court judges. This seemed a very
large number for a : . o , ulation of 60 000.
ani o,a, wi . twine the whole popula-
tion, had only eight judges, and the duties
were disoharged .in.. a manner that tom
pared aavantageoasly with the other P,ro-
vinoee. -
Bir John Thompson, in reply, said the
dietanoe that had to be covered in British
Columbia was very mach larger than in the
other Provinces.
Mr. Burdett urged that there should be
a readjustment of judges' salaries so as to
secure uniformity. It was a question in
Ontario whether the judges were paid
enough. There were a,great many barrio...
tern who earned more at the bar than they
w.onld on the bench, and therefore the bench
had no attraotion for them.
Bir John Thompson, in reply, said he
had no doubt the, judges ' had more than.
they could poesrbly do in Ontario, but pro-
vision roust' be made by the Provincial
Legislature for other jadgeshipe before the
Federal Government could . make an (sp.
pointment.
Mr. Bain (Sonlangee) moved for copies of

north shore of the St. Lawrence.
Sir John Macdonald said one of the reports
asked for was confidential, and further
enquiries were being made respecting the
@�ttj i(t ai the nanela on^1hg-,-nor
south sides of the river. One report could
not be .given without , giving; a ohain .of
reports, and as the matter was engaging the
very earnest attention of the Government
at present, he asked that the motion be
w thdrawn.
Sir Richard Cartwright asked if the
Government would lay upon the table of
the Howse the Rykert-Adams correepon-
denoe.
Bir John Macdonald replied in the afirm-
ative. -
Bir John Macdonald, in reply to Mr.
Mitchell, said that . no instructions had
been given as. yet to the Britieh Minister at
Washington that the modus vivendi would
e^nantinned.
Mr. McCarthy 'moved the it' Gond read-
ing of bis. Bill to amend they, Northwest
Territories Aot.
Mr. Davin—I rise for the purpose of
offering an amendment to the motion. It is
slightly different from the' one of which I
have given notice, and reads as 'follows :
" That this Bill be now reed a second
time, but that it be resolved that it is -ex-
pediens that "the Legislative Assembly of
the Northwest Territories be authorized to
deal with the subject of this Bill by ordets
or enaotmenta after the neat, general (Alec
tion for• the said, Territory." i1Iy hon.
friend in' his Ottawa epeeoh talks about
makin this a British colony ? - Is not this
a Britit colony ? And, sir, let us be just.
Why iii it a Britieh colony ? It is because
of that eery Lower. Canadian. French race
that eeems to aot like a red rag on a bull on
my hon friend.. For we know very well
thatethere was d time in the history of
Canada, when that rage had Sustts,paeeed
over to the British flag, when temptations
were held out to them to join the thirteen
colonies. • -
Sir John Macdonald—Hear, hear.
Mr. Davin—If they had not been tree to
their new-found allegiance, if their loyalty
had not been impregnable against the
sednotiona of Franklin and others; we
wonld'have had no`. Britieh'colony.to•day.

generous. He does larff prbfeee tetwa very

that the Catholic Church is tolerated in a
manner in this ..00ttntry that' our laws
hardly permit. It is motirned that certain
things were done when 'the French-
Canadians were 60,000, but does any man
sfippose that if they had not been dealt
with with that • wisdom, moderation ,and
generosity with which England lute dealt
with all the races with which ebe has oma
in contact; he would have had a British
oolony here to -dap .- The hon. gentleman
