which the hon. gentleman and every
Free Trader will recognize as a good
one—the works of J. 11. McCulloch,
who was as keen a. free trader as the
Hon. the Minister of the Interior (Mr..
Mills) himself. This was his state-
ment with regard to beet root sugar.
This gentleman would not be disputed
as, a free trade authority; he was
sektnd ; he was Gospel in this respect ;

Colonial products in the reign of Napoleon.

Mr. IsfeCalloch,, a free trade autter-

planted in Protection ; that it would
have died out early, and was :dying
out after Napoleon's policy, had passed
away, awing to the free trade ideas
tnat were in vogue after that time—
but for another measure of protection
whichrevived its drooping life. Let
us see something fuither about the 'his-
tory of that industry. The first great
impulse it had received was, by means
of Protection under the first Napoleon, It inv;olved,a benefit to the farmer ; it
