DR. BOURINOT'S LuTTER.
NIL IWO/train Moved the adjourenent Of
the IfoUse, in eviler to call attention to
Dr. Bouriuot's letter to Lieutenant -Gov -
enter Sebultz -vvith reference to the Mani-
toba school toiestion. There wore sinister
, nun ours abroad thin Mr. Schultz had come
seeking L second tom of office, aud that
In order to get it he was prepared to turn
out the present Ministry. Nothing was
clearer than that Lieutenant -Governor
was bound to be loyal to his Ministers,
and aet upon their Ettivice. He understood
that Dr. Bourinot said his communication
was a priyate one, and was not iatencled
for use for political imposes.
Mr, McCarthy said:—"I desire to be
perfectly frank. I tinderstand that these
document were ixi type when they were
given to the press, and they were given to
the press by no less an individual than the
Prime Minister of this country. I shall be
glad to have that statement contradieted,
and I make it so that there can be an op-
portunity of contradicting it. Now, what
does net disclose? It discloses that a
Lieutenant-Governor'being here in Ot-
tawe, applies to Dr. Bourinot for this
opinion, not giving Dr, Botnrnot the
slightest idea that he intended to Inalre
any public use of it, but his private infer-
nuttioo. He then communicated it to the
head of the Dominion Government, and
on the very day that the GOvernment of
Manitoba are to decide the matter it is
published in the papers. If these be the
facts, it is a ease little short of conpsiracy
against the eights of the Legislatuxe of
that province, Mr. McCarthy then re-
' marked that Da Bourinot's letter dealt
with matters on which the greatest diver-
stty of opinion prevailed in the country,
posed? Not in the least. If Governor
Schultz had published. an opinion of his
own in which he had animadverted on
probable advice of his Ministry, then my
hon. friend would have had good ground
for his charge. But you have not got a
single line of an inkling of what Governor
Schultz's opinion is in regard to that
matter.
Mr. Mills (Bothwell) said that with the
soundness or unsoundness of the opinion
given by the clerk of the House they had
nothing to do but he purposed saying
something as to the action of the Lieuten-
ant -Governor in seeking advice of other
than his constitutional advisers. He did
not not see bow a constitutional Govern -
meat was to be mainatined if the Lieut-
enant -Governor sought the advice of per-
sons who were not responsible for the legis-
lation advieed. The Lieutenatn-Governor
of Manitoba was now continued in office
at the pleasure of the Government, and
could be instantly dismissed if he did not
do the will of. the Federal Government.
Under the oircumstancee he thought no
more appropirate mane than that of con-
spiracy coold be used. Let the Govern-
• =ant renew that gentleman's commission
or supersede him by another'bat not con-
tinue the farce of retaining him in office
under the present conditions. The Lieut-
enant -Governor was himself responsible
for all the bitterness that now existed by
having conspired against his Government.
•Mr. Mills then discussed the constitution-
al question at great length, and argued
that no person under the constitution had
any right to advise the Lieutenant -Gov-
ernor but his Ministers.
Mr. Dickey could not see any very seri-
ous fracture of the constitution in this
matter. There was no precedent on this
. • question It was a new question, and szx
exceedingly dangerous one Why should
he not go to a man of the calibre of Dr.
Bourinot te obtain his independent opin-
ion? Mr. Daly defended the action of the
clerk of the House in preparing an opin-
ion on the Manitoba question. Dr. Hour-
inot took the place of the late Dr. Todd,
who not only advised Lieutenat-Governors
but Governor -Generals on constitutional
points. He considered Dr. Bourinot the
foremost authority on connitutionel
points in Canada, Further, he desired to
say that the hon. gentleman who had
made the charges should. first find out
. whether the opinion had not been submit-
ted to the :1\.lattitoba Legislature before it
was published. .EIe believed MaGreenway
had afuli knowledge of the opinion of Dr.
Bourinot days before it was given for pub-
lication by the Lieutenant -Governor
Mr. Fraser die not bhune the Premier
for seeking advice, which he needed badly
enough with the Cabinet he had—but h is
subsequent action in handing out an opin-
ion to the press was undignified,
Mr. Casey condemned Dr. Schultz's
and he expressed his strong dissent from
the views expressed.. Nothing couldbe
more unsound than the opinion that the
Dominion Government was bound to pass
the remedial order. Nothing was more
certain than that the Government had ab-
solute power to refuse the relief asked for.
After arguing against other opinions ex-
pressed in Dr.. Bourinot's letter, Mr. Mc-
Carthy again expressed the opinion that
there was a conspiracy between the Prime
Minister and Lieutenant -Governor Schultz
to bring Mr. Greenway to tine," anol con-
cludect by saying that he thought it a
matter of so groat importance that he was
bound to bring it to the attention of the
House at the first opportunity.
Mr. Foster, in reply, said:—As to the
importance of the matter, Mr, Speaker,
there may be different opinions on both
sides of the House. What business is it of
his whether the Governor was bidden or
unbidden at Ottawa? Whether he was
bidden or unbiclden,he was doing no more
than he was entitled to under the coned-
tutiou in visiting Ottawa. If the Govern-
ment desires to consult with him, though
that is a hypothetical case, who has any
right to found on that a charge against the
action? The gravEunen of the charge,
when le:ought, down to a shnple conclu-
sion, is this. He says that the Governor
had. a perfect right to inform himself with
reference to any public: Matter which is at
present agitating the mind of the country,
a subject which is likely to be one in
which he himself may have to advise ani
consult with his Mitistry. My hon, friend
did not deny that. He had a right to it -
form himself, and had recoarse to an
authority, the clerk of this House, well
known FIs a writer of repute and of author-
ity on constititional points. We are on
eortimon groun'd that far. Now, the hon.
gentleman parts from that common
ground, and asserts that Governor Sehultz
whlle having a eight to intorm himself,
had no right to give that information to
any person outside of his ministry, and his
great charge, after till, is that a document
—confessedly non-political, written by a
student of constitutionl history, the great-
est and bestauthority that we have in the
Dominion of Canada, at .the suggestioo
and request of the Governor ---a constitto
tiotal opinion entirely aside from partisan
considetetions or leabings—wes given out

Ooatsworth thought it remarkable
that the member for North Shnooe should
charge a gentleinanewith an notion when
he had been guilty of exaetly the sante
offence in speaking at a public xneeting 111
Toronto recently, nod urging that the
(4overninent should not grant remedial
legielation. On the 00041S1011 he endeav-
ored to induce •the Privy Council to come
to a conelusion at which he had failed to
induce them to arrive in his argument be-
fore them.
The motion was then put, and carried,
NEWFOUNDLAND NEGOTIATIONS.
Mr. Davies desired to again call the at;
tention of the House to the acute stage at
which the negotiations between this Gov-
ernment and the Government of New-
founclland had arrived, and to the impor-
tance that information should be given to
the House respecting the same. Quoting
from St. John's (Newfoundlend) Herald,
he showed that the people in the island
Were in such a condition that they must
eitner accept the terms offered or become
bankrupt. He thought the general feeling
was rather favourable to making New-
foundland part of the Dominion, and he
believed there was not a dispositon to
haggle about a few dollars.
Mr. Foster, reply, said:—I am sorry I
cannot fully satisfy my hon. friend's laud-
ilbeenquisitiveness with reference to this
matter. The hon. gentleman must be
met in this caste as he was before, with a
courteoua, but at the same tirne a firm,
refusal to place one single iota of the nego-
tiations pending between this Government
and Newfoundland before the House before
they are ended. The ease will be fully, and
freely discussed when the papers are
brought before the House.
Sir Richard Cartwright wished to point
out that in consideration of the budget,
whioh as still before them, they should
know all the projects of the Government
that were likely to add to the liabilities of
the country.
Mr. Montague said the hon. gentleman
had made himself ridioulous. The only
point on which he had attempted to say it
word of sense was that the House was
being dragged into a bargain of which it
was to know nothing. His hon. friend
knew that he was talking nonsense on
that point. He knew that confederation
never could be completed until every line
of the agreement had been submitted to
the Parliament of Canada and discussed
and passed upon by the members of the
House.
Mr. Lanier said the question under dis-
cussion was the basis of the agreement to
be arrived at between the two countries
respecting the terms of union. He con-
tended that Canada had now completed
the negotiations, He presumed that as
soon as the Legislature of Newfoundland
was in session the answer would be com-
municated to that body. .Sut in the mean-
time the people of Cantata must wait.
Why in the name of common sense could
the information not be given now? Must
the people wait until the resolutions are
cut and dried? Why cannot the facts be
brought now before Parliament?.
Mr. Foster asked the House in all cool-
ness to examine the question. The Gov-
ernment acted in this matter because it is
responsible to the whole country whereas,
Mr. Mills,who wanted now to take a hand
in the negotiations, was responsible only
to Bothwell. He denied thee the negotia-
tions were concluded. He denied that one
line of information had been given to the
Newfoundland Legislature. But when the
facts wero given to that body they would
be communicated to the Parliament of
Canada.
TH.F BUDGET.
reteproeity, eoninterciel 'union, or free

ihtstries. What the Liberals wanted to do
was to inalat this a cheap country to live

that the reve5ion of tbe tariff had increase

existing depression. Investigaiten show-
ed that proteetioe peeserved our market,
and by that moans, and that only, was
Canada able to withstand the tornado of
financial desaster that•had. swept over the
Country to the south.
Mr. Macdonald (Huron) would ask the
country, through the Speaker, why It was
that the manufacturers were so heartily in
favour of the National Polley if it were
not that they knew they were substantial-
ly benefited under it? Hon. gentlemen
should have known that when wheat was
imported from the United States ,,some
years ago it was not for consumption in
Canada, because Canada raised enough
end exported some, but was imported to
improve the quality of Canadian wheat be-
fore Manitoba hard wheat was extensively
grown. The result had been vastly bone -
Ikea' to the wheat growers, and the quality
exported was better.
Sir James Grant complimented the
Minister of Finanee open what he termed
the ablest linanolal exposition he had heard
for twenty-five years, The falling off in
revenue was not due to the Administra-
tion, but to the decline in prices. The
Shareholders' and Insurance Gazette show-
ed that the banks in Great Britain, France,
Germany, Austria, and other countries,
had much larger sums on deposit this year
than last year, which showed that depres-
sion was not confined to Canada, but that
in these older -settled countries trade and
commerce was unsettled and capitalists
were afraid. to invest. Referting to the
timber resources of the country, he urged
that the Government endeavour to impress
Upon the farniers of the North-West, as
wee done in Europe, to devote a certain
time each year to planting of treats° that
in the near future they might have some-
thing to protect the country and change
the climatic condition. The mineral re-
set -trees ef the ,ommtry, he declared, were
unbounded and but slightly develope&
a0 country in the world possessed more
valuable inineral waters than Cenada,and
to -day hundred of people wore coining to
Canada to benefit by the use of them. In
asbestos natural gas, petroleum, and salt,
the country was unusually rich. British
Columbia had a megnificent tater) before
it, but was as yet only in an initial devel-
opment. Having been out to that province
on three weakens, he could testify to the
activity of the prospectors in mining for
various minerals, and predicted ere long
as great a rush to that province as during
the famous Cariboo rush of a few years
ago. He hoped no man who lived in Can-
ada would consider that the country was
in a state of decay and ruin. Canada had
nu reason to fear the future when she
possessed such extraordinary- mineral and
timber resource. What better indication
of the prosperity of the country could they
have than the fact that insurance had
more than quadrupled during the last ten
years? The Liberal party was not pro-
gressive, wihch awe -tutted for the reason
they were in opposition.

Mr. Dickey, resuming the debate on
the budget, quoted statistics to prove that
the actual business of the country had in-
crease enormously under the Conservative
rule. In support of this contention, he
cited the opinions of Mr. J. W. Longley,
Sir Oliver Mowat,Attorney-General Field-
ing, Mr. Geo. Hague, of the Merchant's
Bank and others. He then read the testi-
mony of the impartial witnesses in the
TJnited States with respect to the progress
of Canada, notably that of Mr. David A.
Wells', a noted economic authority, and
Hon. Joseph Walker, of Massachusetts.
They all bore evidnce to the fact that in
the past Canada had been making great
strides in the direction of progress. The
leaders of the Liberal -Conservative party,
whatever else thier faults, had always
looked forward with confidence to the fu-
ture of Canada. The Liberal -Conservative
party had committed errors, and would
again oommit them,
but a lack of confi-
. deuce in the future of this country would
never be among the ntunber. Until they
took a more optimistic view of affairs in
this country the Liberals would never see
life as it was viewed front the Treasury
benches. He quoted from the English
press to show that for a number of years
past the Mother Country, in spite of its
enormous wealth and resources, had suf-
fered from financial depression while,dur-
ing the same period Canada enjoyed a fair
measure of commercial prosperity.
Mr. Martin reetuned the budget debate.
Ile discussed the changes made in the
tariff last session, aucl declared that the
Finance Minister was unable, through the
influence of msmufacturers, to carry out
the reduction of iinposts which he would
seem to have contemplated in deferenoe to
public sentiment, The Finance Minister
had promised the country a reduction in
taxation of $1,500,000. Instead of reduc-
ing the taxes of the country, the hon. gen-
tleman, at the bidding of the Manufactur-
ers' Association of Toronto, in his budget
speech of last session, added considerably
to the public: burdens. He wished to call
attention to what he termed a deliberate
inistateraent of the Minister of Finance in
regard to his figures respecting the loan.
The hon. gentleinan had said that when.
the Canadian loan was floated in the Lon-
don market at 8 1-6 per cent., the Amore.
can Got:v.11ln ent bad paid 8 8-4 per oent.
for floating a loan about the same time.
The feats were that the Americau loan of
$5,000,000 was made in the American
markceand instead of the rate being 8 8-4
per cent, it was only e 7-8. per Sent. If the
hon, gentleman wanted proof, he could
refer to the New York Herald of Nevem ,
ber elth, 1804.

would materially affect the level of the

reply before any steps should be taken.
OCEAN MAIL CONTRACT.
Sir Adolphe Caron, in answer to Mr.
Ceckbmee said omits were sent by the
steamship Labrador, of the Dominion line,
which sailed fr.= Quebec yesterday. The
department was now in correepondence
with the Allan line in reference to whether
the Vancouver and Labrador of the Do-
minion line would be employed as former-

Mr. Wallace, in answer to Mr. Legris
said the total quantity of raw sugar im-
ported during the year 1892-3 was 245,-
781,700 pounds, and the tetra quantity of
refined sugar imported during the same
period was 1,610,147 pounds. The total
quantity of raw sugar imported during
the year 1893-4 was 808,796,812 pounds,
and the total quantity of refixed sugar im-
ported daring the same period was 8,356,-
526 pounds.
, POST -OFFICE EXPENDITURE.
Sir Adolph Caron, in answer, to Mr.
Lister, said the total expenditure for the
Post -Office Department for the nine
months ended March 81st, 1895, for Par-
liamentary appropriations amounted to
$0, 710, 775.
SAN JOSE SCALE.
Mr. Montague, in answer to Mr. Bor-
den, said the Department of agriculture
was aware that the San Jose scale pest ex-
isted in certain portions of the United
States, and were considering stops which
might be necessary to effectually prevent it
coming into Canada.

Mr. Conant in answer to Mr. MeCarthy,

taken before Mr. N. C. Desneyers, 3. P.,

Draped Root and Shoe Box.
Though there is nothing new in the idea
of a draped dry goods box with inner
shelves, yet the one herewith represented is
draped in a simple, graceful manner, and
is certainly very convenient. Where
cloaets are scarce, and boots, slippers,
shoes and rubbers have to be tucked away
here and there, or left lying about, it box
of this kind is almost a necessity, and. it
takes but a short time to prepare one, The
model. was made to supply such a need.
The box selected was about the height of
a lamp stand, thirty-three inches, and the
top eighteen by twenty -ono inches; two
sleeves were slipped in, to rest on cleats
tacked on each side, and the lower part was
left just high enough to admit ru.bber
boots. Thett a pretty red and olive table-
cloth, nearly two and one-half yards long,
was used to drape the box. The cloth was
arranged so that the border resembled
band of trimming along the bottoin of the
folds fell straight to the floor, completely
hiding the inside. -They never parteti
themselves but could be thrown aside out
of the way in an instant:. In our illustra-
tion the curtains two drawn apart, te dis-
close the inner shelves. Such a cover re-
mains clean a long time, but may readily
baremoved for cleansing by drawing out a
few tacks. The top, which is slightly
padded, makes a convenient stand for a
lamp or work basket. A. similar box
would make a C01111/10(10, or a magazine
case. 'Bit, box deseribed was found so
convenient that Another one was made for
the exolusive use of the men. A wider
box was chosen, which would fit snugly
into an obscure corner or a small entry

and slippers. The cover was a equare, red
tableclene which, as it could be used
whole, was not binned for other uses. It
was spread smoothly over the top, with
nearly all of the other falling in front; be-
ginning at the middle of the front edge, it
was gathered up into straight folds, whioh
were tacked to the middle of the box at
the top, thus producing divided front cur-
tains, so full at the middle as to make the
parting invisible. The cloth hot needed
was allowed to fall at: the back side,where
a few tacks held It securely. As it steed

seen, but ill WI exposed position the sides
would have to be stained or painted,

From Waterloo, Ont., Chronicle.
Mr. David Tnelor is a prosperous well-
to-do fanners who lives "near Oeutrevtlle
on the main road from Berliu to Galt. He
lets it fine farm ot 100 acres, anti every-
thing about his place has an Mr of neat-
uess and prosperity, A representative of
the Waterloo Chroniole lately had occasion
to call ou Mr. Tarsier andnn the coarse of
conversation came across one of those re-
meakable cures through the use of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills that has given this
great life-saving medicine a world-wide
reputation. Among Mr. Thaler's family
is a bright rosy-claeeked boy of four years,
whose winsome manner attracted the re-
porters' attention and caused hixa to re-
mark on his healthy appearance. "Yes,"
replied the farmer, the little fellow looks
well enough now, but two years ago he
was but a mere skeleton stud we were
Sorely afraid we would. lose him, and. Ibe-
lieve Dr. WilliarasPink Pills saved his
life." Asked to give the particulars Mr.
Thaler said.; Ine was a strong and healthy
child when born end continued so until 15
mouths old, when unfortunately a servant
gave him, without our knowledge, food
quite unsuited to an infant. The result
was his stomach became deranged; he be-
gan to pine away and no food would re-
main with hinu but passed off like water.
He could not sleep or rest, and cried day
and night. He kept going down for six
or seven mouths until the poor child was
reduced to skin and bone. He had medical
aid but little or no good was accomplish -
ca. It was not until the little fellow was
in this desperate strait that we determined
to give him Dr. Williains' Pink. Pills, and
I procured it supply and he was given
them according to the directions for chil-
dren. Soon after beignaing to give him the
Pink Pills the change was remarkable,
and. from that he became stronger and
stronger until he is now the healthy little
chap you see before you, As I said before
I belive we owe his life, under proivdence,
to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and it youfeel
that what I have told you will benefit any
Otto else you are quite at liberty to publish
it." The reporter has no doubt that the
statement may point to some other parents
the road to reuewed health for their child,
and gives it as he got it from Mr. Thaler.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are just as
valuable in the case of children as with
adults, and puny little ones would soon
thrive and grow fat under this treatment,
which has no equal for building up the
blood and giving renewed strength to
brain, body, and nerves. Sold by all
dealers, or sent postpaid at 50 cents it box
or six boxes for $2.50, by addressing the
Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., 13rockville,
Ont. See that the trade mark is on the
wrapper around every box and do not be
persuaded, to try something else said to be
"just as good.'

ills to whieh flesh is heir— the very
nature of many curatives behest suoh that
were the germs of other and differently
seated diseases rooted in the system of
the patient what would relieve one ill,
in turn would aggravate the other, We
have, boteever, itt Quinine Wine, when
obtainable in a sound unadulterated, state
it remedy for many and grevious ills. By
its gradual and judicious use, the frailest
syetems are led into convalescence and
strength, by the influeuce which Quinine
exerts on Nature's own restoratives, It
relieves the drooping spirits of those with
whom a chrouic state of morbid despond-
ency and lank of interest in life is a
disease, Etna, by tranquilizing the nerves,
disposes to sound and refreshing sleep—

Relieves Kidney Disease Immedia-
tely, But It also Heals and Removes

the most distressing cases itt a few hours
But it does not stop there. It is it ereat
healer, and its continuous use for a slaort
time completely banishes the disease. It
is a cure for kidney trouble, and only it,
but it never fails here.
