Provincesof Ontario and Quebec last

should do its utmost to develop the phos-

claimed, would be done by maintaining the

Mr. McMillan (Heron) said the farmers

Sir John Macdonald replied that during

Mr. Patterson inquired whether there
was any neceesity for keeping the force at
its present strength now thet the district
was getting more settled. He would like
to know whether there was any intention
of reducing the force in the direction, for
instance, of not recruiting when the men's
time was expired.
Sir- John Macdonald observed that it,
would be a great mistake to reduce the
force. The form as originally organized
tied simply to look after the Indians. Now
there wee a large influx across the border
of p,eople of all kind of habits, and smug-
gling was continually on the increase. In
fent, the force wee harder worked than be-
fore in order to afford protectionngainsethe
people who crossed the border and commit-
ted all kinthrof outraged. Fortunately they -
had the most friendly reletiohe 'with the
American force to the south of the border,
otherwise the situation there 'would have
been meet intolerable. He did not think
there was tiny chance of the 'force being
reduced, because that wonld remit in great
injury to the eountry.
