Canadians can flitter like men, and stay home to fight their differences out to a successful issue. • .r For at few days after the election Sir John Macdonald was confined to his bed, but now we are pleased to state he is able to be around. Canadiansewer• ally will wield him good health during the few remaining years of his life. Canada is not going to die quietly when its own Sir John is Called home. Those who think that the death o£ the Old Man is to be the end of this nation's life are mistaken. His place will be filled, and the country will go Marching on. Canada roust live. The powers of immortal life are in the country. t The desire to allow Sir john to be elected without opposition in Megaton was ignorod by the Liberal bosses. They named their man, but the votes of independent Liberals killed the chances o£ party victory and gave Sir John a ma3arity more flattering than any wnich he has received during his whole career. The Cabinet will reassemble at Ottawa next week, and active preparations for tate work of the session will be com- menced. It is understood that Parlia- ment will meet on Wednesday. April 29, to enable the House of Commons to elect a Speaker, and the formal opening will take place the following day. Sir John hse ;wept the country M it is, but bad: Edward Blake's letter to the \Veit Durham Liberal Convention ben Made public before polling, the Liberal party would have been crushed out of existence; Of this policy the late Liberal leader holda practically the same viewe as the Conservative leaders, DISCRISILNATIO;i AND nava'. Assuming that the -United States had. assented to such a treaty, Dar Blake thus proceeds to deal with the question of discrimiiatien against Britain, and the difficulty in the revenue. He says :— '-Obviously, any practicable plan invol- ves differential duties against the -anted Kingdom and the rest of the world." "Bat even with such duties. the gaps in our revenue. due to the loss of present Taxes on imports from the States and on imports from li Reim to be replaced by home ni U. S. manufactures, would be very great : ineapable of being Billed by a tea and coif e tax, a bill tax, and other availab"e tax, of a like nature, anti, by pr.dct;cal economies." "sheet taxation, even in its roost pro. misiug form, a succession tax, is. I reeret to say, ee present out of the question. Awl of the linaucialproblem presented by Uureetrietetl Reciprocity. I have seen .no solution whieh would !rave us without as great tletleit." "15 I have ssridl that auy feas=ible plan involvea ditl'euentiel ditties but it, does more, It involves --as to the bulk by agreement. and as to much from the pec- essrty of the case ---the substautiel assiml Latton, in their lc difg featnrce, of the tariffs of the two eourrtries." COMMERCIAL VINTON DY A:10T11144 NAME. The contention of the Conservatives that L' R is 0 Ls by another name is also tdtuitted in this paragraph : "Slime any .practical arrangement sloes substantially involve. not only differential duties, hut a comma ter]ti, unrestricted reeiprneity 1„eenmes, in these he redeeming features, difficult to distinguish from coma nsereial union,” WILE HEWERS S OF WOOD. But Mr. Bake sees another evil in- volved in this policy. It is this : That under Liberal policy Canada would pro- duce the raw materials and the Aweri-- Cana would dotho manufacturing for the Continent, since vast manufacturing establishments would not be set up among live million people who were liable to bo cut off from the 0.5 millions with -whom theywere trading, by the sudden termination of the treaty under which that trading was being done. Mr Bake says : "No manufacturer, looking to the con- tinental market. wautd OM or even enlarge his capital or Wetness in the country of five millions, at the risk of being cut off from the country of sixty-five mitlicni" "Our neighbors, instead of engaging in manufactures here, would takeour mar- kets with goods manufactured there." ",And our rest -materials. instead of boingg finished an the ground, would be export*til to be finished abroad " SURRENDER or T IRIS? CONTROL. That Canada would, under 17. R., lose control of its tariff, is frankly ad- mitted "It might be possible to agree on a tariff for a yearor two. It would be impossible for either country to fix its tarifffor a long term. Changes in the stipulated tariff must therefore be provided for " "19 It would not be practicable to remit the decision as to such changes to a Joint' Board." "And whatever shape the arrangement might take it world be necessary to con -1 cede to the Statese if not a formal, at any i rate a prautieal control in respect et, changes." "I see no plan for combining the two elements of permanency of the treaty and variability of the tariff, which does not, involve the practical control of the ]atter; by the States." a * * Mr \Vimen professes to bo well pleased le , with thet t r )f leo elections nand s re- arde it as a Liberal triumph. Whatever triumph there arty be in it for the Lite erals, Mr SVinian is welcome to. Cer- tainly the Liberal leaders here do not regard it as great victory for themselves and do not take the happy view of affairs that Mr. Malan takes. Nothing more can be done in the direction of annexa- tion for soul? time to come. +t There seams no prospect of a heal- ing of the split of the Irish party. The contending parties are bitterly opposed to each other, and do not hestitate to come to blows when they meet. What the upshot will be. is uncertain, but up to date Mr Parnell has succeeded in keeping himself well to the fore. He is not at all lacking in courage, and the way he faces his opponents is daring. Neither party can exist without money, however, and if America fails them now in funds there will be little done by either. The only danger is that the dynamite wing may revive and make matters warm for everyone concerned. The Cleveland Leader, with imperfect information, remarks upon the Canadian elections :-- "More than one•half of the Canadian electors, with their eyes wide open as to what it implies, voted for commercial union. They knew that, if adopted, it meant discrimination against Great Britain and in fovea of tide United States with respect to many products. They knew that it meant drawing so far away from Great Britain that separation would in tittle be inevitable, incl so o'.ose to the United Stats as to lumonn% to commercial annexation, with politic ti aunexetion a ry e at+d ❑ ra ili.t Pie in spite 'e growing „ 17 bob y. of th waving of the •olcl flag,' and of eloquent appeals{ to their 'loyalty' nearty one half of the C:,atadian electors yoted for that very thing." That is what the Liberate voted for in effect, but it is wrong to say that they did it with their eyes open. Iiad the contest been continued fora time longer until the people could discern for thein selves' what a calamity was about to overtake them by unrestricted reci- procity, the result of the election would have been a complete defeat of the Eeform party, • friends than the idlest fa:11U7 Which sw.T Iwo trent Rryr..1I Withdrawal' - 334.

The question of better fire protection has for Sears been discussed, but without the slightest move being made to obtain it, and possibly until the town sustains a less twice the cost of a good fire protection will any definite action be taken.

The tendency in Canada of unrestricted free trade with the States, high duties beiug maintaitiedagainzt we UuitedKiug. dotn, wouldl be towards political union, and the more successful the plan the stronger the tendency, both by reason of the community of interests, the mtertning' ling of populations; the more iutimate business and social connections, and the trade and fiscal relations, amounting to dependency, whieh it would create with the States, and of the greater isolation and dive geney from Britain which it would produce, and also, and especially, though inconveniences experienced inthe mint n anco,and apprehensions entertained as to the termination of the treaty. Our hopes and our fears alike would draw one way. We would then indeed be "Iooking to Washington. CoatUEacraL UNION ONLY a STEP. This feeling (in the United States) is that seine day, sooner or later, a political reorganization of the continent should and must take place; not by force, but by the free consent of its inhabitants. The treaty once made, the vantage ground it gave . would naturally be used for the accomplishment of its ulterior pur pose ; and this. political end would be a great factor in the consideration by the States of Canadian views upon changes in the joint tariff or as to the maintenance or termination of the treaty. MUST NOT LET OURSELVES DRIFT. I' hold that our future should not be settled (as we have allowed it to be settled in the past, perhaps much further than we yet realize) by accideut or unwittingly ; by sidewinds or the inglorious policy of drift. It should rather be determined,; so far as it remains within our own control, of fixed purpose, after clue discussion and deliberation, as becomes a, free people re- solvtng on their lot.
