ON TRANSPORTATION AYR) '1.111:
BIJOU ET DEI(ArN.
Dr. Macdonald, Deputy Speaker, looked
upon transportation as the most important
question before the people. It was not to be
supposed that any one route could carry all
the traffic. Some would . go one way and.
some the other. But the very beat method
of facilitating transportation would be by
putting the "alt water wav" in the best pos-
sible condition. This would provide a check,
so far as rates were concerned, upon the
other methods of transportation. There was
a great centring of traffic through the Sault
Canal, which m '88 numbered 0.000 vessels,
with anaverage tonnage of 600 tons and a
total of five and a half millions of freight
carried. Las year the number of vessels
was 20,000, with an average tonnage of 1,000
tone and a total of 25,000000 tons of freight
carried. In the same period the value of the
freight passing through the canal increased
from 970,000,000 to 4218,000,000. The Govern-
ment had done much to improve the greatest
natural waterway fn the world, and the pea
pie approved of the expenditure, in order
that Canada might obtain the advantage of
handling the commerce to which her people
are entitled. Although much had been done
to improve the waterways, it was necessary,
in order to obtain the full benefit of the ex.
penditure which had been made, that better
harbors and superior terminal facilities be
provided. At present the large vessels plying
on the upper lakes are excluded from the St.
Lawrence route, and have to sail past Port
Colborne and go onto Buffalo. The Govern-
ment had determined to do what was possi-
ble to remedy this by improving the harbor
and terminal facilities at Port Colborne.
The waterways had been proved to be of
great value in governing rates. The lowest
rates for wheat in the world are from Chicago
to New York, and the reason was the rate
was made on the waterways. Proof of this
was to be found in the anxiety of all the
Western States to obtain an outlet on the
great lakes and waterways, in other to con-
trol the railway rates. One reason why
Buffalo had captured the grain trade was the
improved terminal facilities it had provided
elevators that were capable of elevating 40,
=bushels an hour. The Canadian route

We were sorry that the weather would not
permit of us going further inland. The
wind, whichwas blowing a regular gale, was
in our favor, so we fitted up a blanket for a
sail and crossed the lake without using a
paddle, except in the stern. We had a dee
]lghtful sail. We stopped at the stratified
rock, and the place where we found the first
copper, in order to give our geologist an op-
portunity to examine and make a report of
the same. The waves were running quite
high, almost too high for our frail canoes,
yet we weathered the gale o. k. We went
back over the route we came, stopping how-
ever to inland trips on either side of the
river, where we found the Boil quite suitable
for farming. Of all the country we travelled
over this portion around Little Pine Lake
and River, about 40 miles in arca, was the
best having every natural advantage. It
would be hard to find any better land, timber
and mineral. We also followed up someof
the streams flowing into the river, finding
the country the same as aforesaid. We ar-
rived back at our main camp on liapeesa-
wotin Lake, where we found our two boys
hale and hearty and quite pleased to have
us coma back. We were out in all four days

hearty hand clasps we received from our two
boys. They had been very lonesome indeed,
not seeing a soul since our departure. Our
worthy and highly esteemed cooly amused me
much by shouting quite loudly, "Oh I Oh I

It was on a Saturday evening that we re-
turned to our Kapeesawatia camp, where we
remained over Sunday. We always made it
a point not to work explore or do any mov-
ing on the Sabbath, but the forenoon was
generally devoted to a general clean up,
while the evening was invariably spent sing.
ing sacred Bongs and hymns. These Sunday
concerts were thoroughly enjoyed by us all,

In the Loral Bonne on the Budget, A.
Hislop (East Huron) said there was a

that epithet to bun. gentlemen opposite,
but it would be no ihjuatioe to say ,hat
"tba lest refuge of the Oooservative
party its Weet E gin." (Goverument ap-
pleuse.) No members on the Government
side condoned any of'the wrongdoings in
West Elgin, but they were compelled to
aoknowledge that the Conservatives were
not sincere in their protestations. Had
they been fired by oinoerity they would
have used the ordinary maohinery of the
law to being many parties they complain-
ed of to the courts, but they were more
concerned about making political capital
than about attempts to put the law into
effect. He referred to the development
of new Ontario, pointing out the good re•
suite of the adieu taken by the Govern•
ment la that regard, and also to the
general policy of the Liberal party.
