[CONTINUED THOU PAGE 0.] Now this is not exactly the policy we have foreshadowed in our resolution bet it is the same prinoiple. We were under deep obligations to Great Britain for al- lowing our goods free into her markets, and because of other advantages we have reoeived from her during many years. Notwithstanding that, the resolution of Mr. Daviee was voted down by no less than 00 Conservatives who sat iu this Rouen, and not a single one of them voted for preferential trade with Great Britain. Yet, they tell ns today that in bringing this preferential policy we have borrowed their clothes. It is no such thing. L1 1892 the Conservatives want. ed England to reduce her duties, or give some preference before they would do anything for her, while at that day we otlered bee prefereutial trade. I am proud to see today from the various communications whiob coma from the old land, that both Conservative and Reform proses there are united in land• ing the Liberal party. of Canada which has taken this beneliaienb step, nob only in the interests of Great Britain, but alike in the interests of Canada and the Empire. Let me tell the House how this prefer- ential resolution will be advantageous to Canada, and probably I will quote some figures that will astonish hon. gentlemeu opposite. I take no stook at all in the argument that this preferential offer to Groat Britain is going to involve her in difficulty with Germany and Belgium. The Government after taking the whole matter into consideration, and after clow. stating probably the very best lawyers in the country, have announced boldly and above board in this Rouse, that it is not to be extended to Germany and Belgium, and that in their opinion the most favor. ed nation, clause does not apply in this ease, Even if it did, that is a matter yet to be decided by the highest court in the land. Mn. PRIOR. Did the hon. gentleman hear what the Minister of Trade and Commerce (Sir Richard Cartwright) said iu regard to that Aon. MAono0,m) (Huron), Yes, I did, and I heard what Mr. Laurier said Ma afternoon, that in the opinion of the Government this privilege was not to ex. tend to Belgium and Germany. Now, that means just Ibie, that after due con - .sideration that was the conclusion at, which the Government arrived ; and, therefore, they are of the opinion that when title matter is tested before the proper tribnuel, it will be found, that this offer made in the manner in which it was made, does not violate in any way the favored -notion clause in the treatise of 1862 and 1805. But supposing it did, may not this policy bring about the final eettletnenb of this question more quiokly than if we bad left it alone altogether 7 Are we to be hampered in the making of our tariffs, by those treatise, when Eng- land's opinion is that we should bo releas. ed from the burden of them, if we are under them, and when the most eminent statesmen of Fingland have said time and again that if we find that these treatise compromiee our tariff policy, they will take the first opportunity of denouncing them and letting us free in that respeot? And this departure may bring that gees. Hoe to a oonslusion faster than that could be done in any other way. We are told that this arrangement is. . going to be of not benefit, But those who have paid attention to oar sh{ in know that iplarge nnmber of our ships crossing the ocean and clarifying our probed come back in ballast. Therefore, if we oan in. • crease the trade between this country and the old country, we will give labor and profit to tilos ships and thus bring about it redusbion in the transportation rites across the Atlantic, Because everybody knows that if it ship goes Over loaded and comes back ballast, she must °barge higher Gritnsportablon retail than if else brought beak goods. Out of 1,541 vessels whloh left the ports of Halifax, Montreal and Quebec last year, only six left in ballast, while during the same year there came into thee° ports 1,414 vessels out of whish 858 ohne in ballast. Now, if we 000 inorease our trade with the eon:Aries across the sea, some of those 858 will (some back laden, and will be bettor able to curry the products of Canada actress at lower rates than at preeenb. Therefore, there will be more work for Canadian shippers and lower prices for Canadian aoueumsre. In this way we shall be benefitted Iron both aides. Now, I have planed before yon no lase than 15'promiees that we made to the people of this country and I have proven to you that in every ease these promises have been fairly and reasonably carried out. Although this Government has been only tee menthe in power, no other Government that ever existed in the oonnlry scald have done more or done bettor. Nor has there ever been a Gov. ernment in this country with a personne of more honor, more integrity,° or more economy. They are men whos° Char - miters are above the least euepioinn, either in private or publio life. Can those who eat on the Treasury benabes a year or two ago make the same claim ? Not at all. And when I say that our noble lender is the beet leader the Liberal party ever had, I do nob mean to disparage the great leaders we had be- fore. The Hou. Geo. Brown was a great man ; the Lion. Alexander Mackenzie was a great man ; the Hon. Edward Blake was a great man ; yet in my humble judgment, we never had in this country anteY a man with broader views great- er statesmanship, or it bettor grasp of the affairs of Canada than the man who now leads the grand and noble Liberal party of Canada ; and I believe when he goes to England in a few weeks to represent this groat colony at the coming aelebre• bleu of the Queen's Jubilee, be will re- ceive a greater ovation than any other man from any foreign country or British colony. As the Koh•i•noor is the bright. est diamond, and sparkles more brightly in the crown of the Queen than any other diamond in it, so Canada is the Koh-i-noor of all the colonies of Great Britain ; and what is more fitting than that we should send the Koh•i-noor of colonial statesmen to reprseeut Canada in the greatJubilee year of the Queen's coronation ? Now, Sir, nob one word of the proles 111ave given to the lion. gentle- men is flattery ; but from what he has anonmplisherl during tete past ton months, with the aid of the Liberal party behind him, and the wisdom of the men surronndieg him in the Govern. ment—men of ability, integrity and character—how could you expect from him anything but what is good and great and noble, in the interests of the country of which we are all so proud ?

He was walking on the track, and evidently did not know the car was behind hien. The motorman sounded the alarm repeatedly, but Mr. I Macklin oould nob hear ib owing to the noise made by a railway trait, passing close by. Owing to the down grade the oar was running rapidly and could not be stopped in time, and the young man was struck fairly iu the batik.

Ross, of Riley Brook, N.B., says :—"I have been it sufferer for thirty years, and I am sure I would still be iu the same lamentable condition had it not been for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I was married at the age of twenty and am now 61 years old. I had always enjoyed good health until after my first child was born. About a month later the illness attaoked me which hoe since made my life miserable. I consulted different doctors, but they did not agree as to the nature of my trouble. One said it was a species of paralysis, others say symptoms of fits. I would be feeling very well when I would suddenly have a sensation of partial blindness, and everything be. fore me would sparkle. Then my band and arm on one side would become numb, and after about ten minutes this sensa- tion world pass to my lower limbs, then my tongue would become affected, as would also my hearing. Voices, no (mat- ter how close, would seem dim and far away. These symptoms would last for about 40 minutes. I would have a vie. lent pain over the eyes, wbiah would con• - finite for twelve hours or more. Not- withstanding all that Was done for me, these spells were coming more frequently, and at Mat I would sometimes have two attacks it day. I was Mao troubled with bronollitie, which added to my misery. I could not sow or knit or do any work that required close attention to it. All this trouble had never left me for years, and at the age of 48 I consulted another doctor. The medicine use gave me, how- ever, made me worse instead of better. Then I wag advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I wise using the third box before I found any( benefit, but then there wag a decided change. By the time I bad 51004 twelve boxes I felt as well as I did in my young days. Every eymptom of tees trouble that had so long made my life miserable had disappeared. for eighteen months I did not use the inills aid was ne well tie ever I had been my life. 'Then one morning I felt a slight attack of the old trottble and deter- mined to try Dr. Willinma' Pink Pills again. I got a box and took en ooaasion- al pill and have never Since bad a symptom of the trouble. To say that Dr, Williams' Pink Mlle have done wonders for me is petting it mildly, end I strong. ly urge their nue on ail who may be ill. Pink Pi1ie were Mao of great benefit to a ni00e of mine, Miss l,t7is J, Everett. Iter mother died when she was quite young, and naturally moll of the caro of the household developed upon her, and as elle grew up she became weak, easily tired, subject to hsadnohss, end her com. plexion was pale and wax like. A young lady teaoher who was boarding with the family and who had used Pink Pills with great mimeo, urged her to try thorn. The result was that she anon 0005 enjoy ing the beet of health and ie a fine robust young lady who shows no traces of her former illness. Dr, Williams' Pink Pills cure by going bo the root of the disease, They renew and build up the blood and etrengtben the nerves, thus driving dfseaee from the system.
