TUPPER Die NES VIE POLICY OF TUE CONSE War= PARTY. • 41ontreal, April 15.—Sir Charles Tup- per, the Conservative leader, who is speuding tbe Baster holidays in Mon- treal, was waited npon on Saturday afternoon by deputations from the • Liberal -Conservative Club and the junior Conservative Club, and preseet- I. ed with addresses. Sir Charles Tupper made a long re- ply to the addresses, in which he de- fended the policy of the Liberal -Con- servative partyand attacked the Gov - eminent, especially on its preferential : 'rade. policy. The Conservatives, Sir — Tupper said, believed. in the . 'Mame . — but they. believ- tinity of the Bnipue, ed the best metros to tiecompne'l; 'that unity was to have mutual prefereoce in trade tnattere Within the Baspire. Ens was opposed to making a free gift to England in the way of e,, preference, such eolicy was a blow atafitalian I;ber. The Governmenf,ebylls policy, was taking the most effective means to • prevent a policy of mutual. preterepee, It was also a breach of faith, as the • Government had declared that the present tariff was fixed, and would not be changed. Sir Charles Tapper also declared against the scheme of having oanada represented in the Imperial hrliament, as proportionate repre- litsentation, he claimed, would mean proportionate taxation, and such, in- stead of helping, would be fatal to the unity of the Empire. The Conserva- tive policy he defined. as protection for Canadian industries, and the unity of the Empire by means of a, mutual pre- ference within tne Enipire. -- Surmise is running wild in the neighborhood of Nithburg over a, find which was made by Mr. Robt.
