But apart from other considerations, the present attitude of the two countries renders it inopp or tutus to adopt in Canada any legislation of an irritating character. Judging. from the communications made in the House of Commons the other day, by the Minister of Finance hi his budget speech, there is Iittle prospect of ob- taining from the Washington authori- ties anything like fair terms of reci- procity, or indeed any fiscal , arrange- anent which would net discriminate a- gainst the Motherland and plane us at the feet of the American Congress in the adjustment of a uniform tariff. These conditions are such that Canada would not entertain for a single mom- ent; and the public sentiment of the Dominion, as unmistakeably expressed in the bye -elections, makes it more im perative than ever that we should cease knocking at the door of the Am- erican republic for better reciprocity terns, and cultivate that wider market for our natural productions which stands ready to buy all that we have to spare. All signs go to 'indicate that while it is inexpedient to pass legistat- lation of a retalitory nature, it is the prudent policy of Canada to protect to the fullest degree our native manufac- tures and farm products; in a word, that we should go on developing our resources, anti enlarging our trade and commerce with those countries that are prepared to accord to us pre- ferential terms, rather than yield to the unreasonable demands of our neighbors to the South. r, BA1vDlRS w SWIPE', Props, TRC111SD.t Bc'DGET AiVedrOUYCE'1l• "N.`[`,. llreeer, perhaps, since the days of Til- ley and Tupper has such an able and gratifying, edliibit been made of the Dominion finances as vas preeeuted .last week by the Hon. G. E. Foster, Minister of Finance Without any flour- ish of trumpets or pretensions to eta queece, Mr. Foster at ouce entered up- on a very business -like statement of ,receipts and expenditures, strewing a surplus for the last year of over two and a half millions of dollars, notwitli standing ',he remission only lest session ef three million dollars in custom dut- ies. Summed up, in brief, the receipts .for last year were $38,579.310, while the expenditure was $36,343,562, leav- ing a surplus of $2,235,748. The es- timates for the current year arc as fol- lows: -expenditure, $36,650,000; and• revenue, $36,695,000, Thus expendi- ture and revenue are upon a good fin- .aneial basis, being nearly equalized; 'while, with the contemplated reduction in the running expenses of the Domin- ion, -covering over two million dollars annually -with the prospect and pro- mise of further reductions, -owing to the decrease in the money markets of Europe, there is every reason to con g•ratulate our county on the sound fi- nancial basis which the present gov- ernment have succeeded in securing. We have no deficits now, but surpluses -we have an enlarged trade with the, markets of the world -our credit in the Old Country stands higher than that of any of the Colonies -and we have a cabinet at the head of affairs, made up of men of business talent, of high moral standing, men who are in sympathy with the people and who have shown a determination to allow no class of the community to suffer for lack of encouragement and protective legislation. In the person of Mr. Ab- bott, we have combined a gentleman .of sound constitutional experience and business qualifications. In the person of Sir John Thompson, we have a man of first class legal attainments and Par- liamentary skill. one who has shewn himself on several occasions to be thor- mugly fair and upright, ready to deal out simple ju, siiice alike to friend and :foe. In the person of the Elon Geo. E. Foster we have a skilful financier ,who 'possesses the fullest confidence of his colleagues and has shewn himself the equal on questions of finance to Sir ' :Leonard Tilley or Sir Chas Tupper. While in the Minister of Agriculture, the Hon. Jno. Carling,the farmers have a representative in the Cabinet ` who has spared no pains to open up fresh markets for our products to encourage improvement in agriculture by Exper- imental Farms in different parts of the Dominion, and in many other ways to develop and extend the interests of the farming community. And now that '.the negotiations with Washington, so 'far as reciprocal trade is con- cerned, are not likely to be renewed for a long time to come, now that the fad of unrestricted reciprocity has re eeived its death -blow by the ultima- tur0 of the. United States authorities, - it stands us in hand to push our com- merce into other channels, and shape our destiny as a nation quite independ- ently of republican policy and institu- tiatls. • THE ALIEN LABOR BILL. -. -The recent diseussiou in the House of Commons on the introduetion of an Alien Labor Bill, by Mr, Taylor, M.P., was productive of conflietiii cpinions• A good deal may be said on both sides of the question. The object of the Bill is to prohibit the importation of foreig- ners and aliens to perform labor in Canada: and there is no doubt that the bill was conceived in a spirit of re_ prisal, and as a set -oil' to the American Alien Labor Act passed by Congress which is rigidly enforced against Ca- nadians who live along the, border of ,United States territory and desire to ,get employment across the lines while living with their families on Canadian Soil. There is no doubt a large amount of sympathy among our people against the rigidenforesment by the American authorities of the Alien Labor law, whereas citizens of the neighbotipg States are allowed every year to come over to the Gebrgian Bay' for the pur.. pose of taking out logs and timber. .It is regarded by many as tt gross injust- sea to Canada that our people are not allowed' to .cross over into Michigan for Michigan, ,ku, similar purpose, and tireless they are ,• prepared be bocot><Ye naturalizedCiti- zens of the 'mite( Stator they are to, turned The eontorrtion h. the r y Minis.of Justice,' who exerted the six S. ER RICHARD'S MALEVOLENCE Something may be forgiven a politi. elan who leas spent the vigour of life fighting a losing battle, and whose fu- ture becomes darker as time rolls on. A degree of bitterness towards oppon ents, of despondency for the prospects of this ungrateful country, we should be disposed to allow' to Sir Richard Cartwright. But the most indulgent, critic can find no excuse for the mon- strous perseversions of fact with which he sought to poison the public mind of England through the pages of the Ec- onomist. The former finance minister has rnatis- curious notions; not the least strange of these is his apparent conviction that he sufficiently justifies an unprincipled libelling of his own country by boldly reiterating the • of- fensive'statements. He is, like a toad, ugly and venomous, and there are two precious jewels which he does.not wear in his head, namely, eonimon sense and common honesty. The Canadian Gaz- ette says upon this subject: "Many of us thought it was bad enough of Sir Richard Cartwright to use his position as ex -Minister of Finance to vilify Can- ada in the,eyes of Englandatlirough the Economist, But what shall be said of his action when it is known that this same exaggerated and partisan letter has been reprinted, and is now being scattered broadcast throughout Eng- land? We have a reprint before us, and it is difficult to conceive anyone whose motives are not those of a blind devotee of party penning such a tirade against everything Canadian:" Our English contemporary may rest assured that so long as Sir Richard persists in these unworthy tactics, justso long will his party remain in the depths of their present misfortune.

Mr, Clarke's death was caused by heart failure. For some time past he had been suffering more or less from weak action of the heart. Last year he.visited Earope and consulted the eminent physician Sir Andrew Clarke, who advised him to avoid excitement or extra exertion of any kind. About two years ago Mr. Clarke disposed of his business in the factory, but retain- ed his retail business in King street, of which he was the active manager at the time of his death. Mr. Clarke wits in his usual „health yesterday. In the morning he visited his place of business, went home to luncheon as usual and afterwards, as was his custom, rested for a short time before going to the local house. Know- ing his state of health, and knowing the advice of his medical men, he did not take an active part in the debates this session. (The funeral took pllce,on Monday.)
