The Loudon Free Press lauds the policy, adopted by the people of Can- ada "un the 17th day of September, 1871." of "nursing infant dndustrler." This hake us tack forty-two years, and yet The Free Press still wants the"Maur' industries to be .nursed by a protective tariff. Query -laid The Free Pero ever know or hear of an iudustry that, hating once tasted the sweets of protection, would admit that it had grown out of the "infant" class and could do without protec- tion? Although the protetive tariff is not worshipped in Canada today as it was twenty -fire years ago, there is still perhaps only • small proportion of the people who would refuse some special favors to a new industry struggling to establish itself in the country. The trouble is that the 'in- fant" industry grows up into a lusty, well -fief age, and the bigger and stronger it gets the more insistent be- come its demands for the special favors of the tariff until Be clamor drown out the voices of a dozen In- dustries of THE(SIGNAL all other in Delicacy and Fragrance 11 El AIL Scnd ass post card for • free semy 1st stating it s price you now py�ay and u you Ulla blacks Gress or Mimed Tea.

On his return, however, the Minister made a statement to the press to the effect that, although his brother's illness, which resulted in his death, was the immediate cause of his tel.ing tbe trip at this time, the greater tart of his.lime in the West was spent on Government business. and that: anyway, he had the geaulire Infant ►arlety, aonally paid the expenses of the trip.
