WE WANT RECIPROCITY.
To the Editor of the Sentinel :
REAR Sit;, --Twelve_ yeers' ago we
were asked by the Government to
support the National Policy. We
were told that as soon as our' manu-
facturers..got fairly started,competitiota
would keep down prices to a fair
profitabove the cost of production.
Bu. 1 i-:, r = - stilt We
have nursed into existence the' com-
bine system that is to -day sapping the
very life out df the farmer and. ,work-
ingman of this country.. The manu-
[acturer is protected with a tariff of
35; 40 and even 75 per cent. and he
combines to raise the prices of goods
to just the e/erit of the tariff, and
1 this, too, on a,ft cies of prime necessity
I to the farm', such as salt, coal, oil,
daily consumption. What ,is the con-
sequence 1 T;lie farmer is getting
.poorer every day, whilst the protected
manufacturer is building his .palatial
'residences in the cities. Let us see
how the thing is managed. l The stove
manufacturer •gets ut a stove but he
.dare not sell it until he has sent the
• castings to Toronto, where a committee
tixes the price, and he dare.not sell for
less If he does he will be tined by
the combination. It is so managed by
the salt combine, by the coal Oil corn -
bine, by the sugar combine and by all
the other combines the National Policy
has brought into existence, but some
say we should be loyal and support
home industries. Let us see. The
man who purchases three dollars worth
of American coal oil pays, two dollars
for the oil and one to the Goyerliment.
The' one dollar that goes , to the
Government is not lost. It can be
used to carry on the expenses of the
Government, but the man who buys
three dollars' worth of Canadian" oil,
pays 'two dollars for his oil and one
dollar into-tbe4tocket_otthe _million-
aire coal oil refiner.. It is not
necessary that we buy American oil,
but it necessary that we be. placed
in a . position that we can buy two
dollars' worth of oil for two dollars.
This is' just one illustration of the
whole system: But swine say the
farmers haye combines. This is
possible. They have to sell in the
open or protected markets of the
world as,,' they can find customers.
Moreover the farmers, have never had
the ear of, the Government. They
have always been looked upon as wilt-
ing animals, I willing to bear any
burdens that are,placed .upon them,
and not grumble. Like the ass we
read about in the Good Book, we have
bowed our backs, and they nave put
on double burdens. A little over a
year . ago a representative body Of
farmers of all shades of politics met in
'the city of Toronto They, without a
dissent, asked that . when it were
shewn a cotnhirie existed' for the pur-
pose,of raising the price Of any article,
such article should be placed. en
the free list.' No notice whatever was
tnkcri of their request. Alraut
sante time the Association of ,Millers
atikeel that the ^o''uty use flour be
increa.sett 25 cents per , barrel. The •
price of manufactured flour was iln-
ine.li;hely raised to 'that,, extent.

"Let him that thinketlt he stand
take ]teed lest he fall." Thii tuight
be aptly applied to the reporter of the
11. L. S, uleeti»gs, On account of the
rain no debate :was held on Friday
evening last, 'Mr. Morrison's political
Meeting, •on the following evening
partly supplied the place of the debate.
Quite; a number of the electors of the
surrounding , district were present,
including a nuwber front Lucknow.
There were four speakers—Dr.. Ten-
nant,,, Mr.'"John Grundy. mai- Lawyer
Morrison, of Lucknow, all spoke. in
favor. of Sir John A. 11lcllonald's
government, and' they were opposed by
Mr. 'Wm. Valens,. Each speaker,
except Mr.' Morrison, was allowed ten
minutes, whet, 'he • finished with an
hour atm a quarter speech. ' We will
ot--her-e—cliscuss__theLlnPrits nf_
Minor speeches, but might .say that
the Doctor made a very neat and
impressive speech. Mr. Valens wasat
home on the subject: of "Free Trade"
and did it justice. Mr. Grundy,
though a novice on the platform.,' was.
none the less in earnest arld showed
clearly that he ' ,did not talk; for tank's
sake. Sorge of the Lnc•know f�i€ods
.frequently ,interrupted M . Gra-ndr;
but'being asked to dntist they • kindly
did so. Unhappily a young. man
liy' t1 a intro 1uctiou oI soIle • for r n
,element, took upon himself to chastise
a young ratan in the audience. Quite
an uproar was the result, and it might
have been more serious had it not been
for' the good sense pf the young' Man,
who submitted to some riugh usage
rather than ' disgrace himself. Mr,
Morrison's was the spee3h of the
evening and we doubt if, circumstances
considered, 'it ,were possible to make a
better. His tine appearance and calui
coltecteil mode of utterance forcibly
fixes the attention' of his hearers. It
struck the- writer as a remarkable fact
that a good speaker can put his argu-
ment in such forcible and taking
manner even if the material of which
they are composed is not of the best.
The idea also occurred to bim that if
equal time and ability were employed
on the other side what a different face
'night be put on theme story, For
instance af,:er passing in grand review
over Canada, her wines, manufactories,
railroads, etc., he said "what does it
matter about the sheep and horses 1"
There are few lawyers in Canada 'who SHIRTING
ahoule able to prove that the sheep
and horse market is not a chief factor
in Canada's .prosperity, or to. supply
ite place in e. substantial and practical
manner :. by making ever so fine a
speech.. Again he illustrates our1rade
by putting that of a single individual
at $350. The .11 ,me rnartket would
take $315, the English $22, and the
Ail rican $11. He appeals . to the
people and asks if they will destroy
the $315 trade for the $11. Just
hefpre this he had said that with Free
Trade °Montreal and Toronto would
become immense cities. Now if this
be so and we ran snip to the United
States with a profit, after praying a
heavy duty, our ,horses, sheep, barley,
potatoes, cheese, etc., arid before the
duty was put on rrur eggs;, would it not'
be All home Market and no America!'
market. Ata this is not ir,teieled as a
criticism, and• space will not permit, 1
will not enlarge but will o'ose warning
the fanners to consider the t, ii facts
of thn' case, and not be carried away
with tine speechks on either laid. useles;•i
they can apply thew practically to
t twit,•iv:it r;,te:U(13itaricits.'
