WEDNESDAY, MARCH 31st, 1897.
In Borrowed Pluinatu e.
The siock reply to nearly every-
thing that was said by the Opposition
speakers in the Legislature with re-
ference to the finances was an appeal
to Sir Oliver MUwat's experts on the
subject of the disputed territory. Sir
Oliver, it seems, secured the territory
in the face of violent •tttempts to de-
prive Ontario of it. He went, accord -
Ing to Mr. G. W. Ross' IateSt fiction,
to the Privy Council despite thn oppo-
sition of Sir William Meredith, and
there won for us our undoubted rights.
It is worthwhile to look into this
mutter. The boundary of Ontarioi
o r
q
the west was unsettled at Confedera-
tion. Sir John Macdonald proposed
soon after the union that the facts be
laid before the law courts, and that
the boundary be there fixed. No ac-
tion was taken, the Liberal Govern-
ment icingg indisposed to proceed.
When Mr. bfeRethzie came to office ar-
bitrators were appointed. They l2rude
an enquiry and gave an award, fixing
the boundary as it is to -day. Sir .John
Macdonald expressed the opinion that
the award would be of no effect, even
if ratified by the Dominion Parliament,
because it would still be opened to
suiters to question the jurisdiction, on
the ground that the line as determin-
ed upon by the Confederation Act had
not really been found. The Corded
oration Act says the western boundary
of Ontario shwll be the old western
boundary of Upper Cauad:t, wherever
that boundary teas• A law court
could fix the line of the evidence laid
before it, but an award by arbitrators,
L� ;ugh helpful, could not take the
•IS of a legal decision. Anyone
Levin le til business noes in the
Ing g tt:rriton;y
could call the •sward in question and
force a consideration of the: quhj let
by the courts. Sir John held that the
proper coarse to pursue was to,proceed
at once to 'the courts and not to leave
the maGteropen to litigation. Sir Oliver
- Mowat strenuously objected to an ;Ll.) -
peal to the courts. His cry was the
award; inconclusive though it might.
1. he, .and nothing but the award.. Mn.
Laurier, in n speech it, Piirliaruent,
espoused Sir Oliver's view. Lie said it
was desirable to stick by the award
because if the courts were, appealed to
the result might he it still larger addi-
tion to the tetr•itory of Ontario. Sir
William Meredith declared for a
. prompt reference to the Juclicitl Com-
mittee. On January 11th, 1883, tie
moved in the Legislature that steps be
irx►mediately taken to secure, a legal
decision from that tribunal. Sit - Oliver
Mowat and the Liberal legislators ar-
. gued and voted unanimously against
thisproposal. At a later date Sir John
Macdonald secured the passage of an
Act declaring that Manitoba should
commence where Ontario ends. This
made Manitoba a party to the ques-
tion. A. conflict o1 jurisdiction' Arose,
and Manitoba arrested it ()tan in Rat
Portage and took him to Winnipeg to
. be tried.. Sir Oliver wits now dragged
into the courts against his will, He
had to defend Ontario jurisdiction.
He had to say, its the Conservatives
had long before urged him to say, that
the territory belonged to this province,
He had to prove this before the high-
est tribunal.
Sir Oliver, wits forced to accept Sir
William Meredith's proposal, the,, pro-
cedure which the Conservatives had
for years urged lihn to take, and which
for years, to the great detrement of
Ontario, he had refused to take. The
lawyers argued the case before the Ju-
dical Committee, and we won. Had
Sir Oliver not been forced to take ac-
tiou, New Ontario would have con-
tinued Ln it disorganized State until
this moment. It required it good cleat
of persuasion to bring Sir Oliver to
reason; but ht: got over his ob,itinncy
when forced. To -day he is swelling It
around in Sir William Meredith's
P•lothes, and apparently is ratherprond

There is the issue in plain words.
If Canada will continue, to supply the
mills of the United States with free
logs and free rultp wood, the 'I:nited
States will permit Canadian sawed
1u1111)er to gn into that country at at
duly of $2 a thousand, and will permit
our pulp to go in }Lt it larger duty,•
but so soon as Canada imposes an ex-
port tax upon pine logs and pulp wood
thea American duty will be increased
upon Canadian sawed lumber and
Canadian pulp by 25 per cent ad vali-
oreni l In other words, so loll g as
Canada supplies tho raw material and
gives the American mills the advan-
tage of a heavy duty On manufactured
lumber and pulp, Uncle Sum will
oblige this country by continuing that
beautiful, one-sided arraDgement; but
so soon as this country endeavors to
even thin s tip by applying tin . export
duty to raw inaterial, Uncle 'Sam
will apply 25 per cent ad valorem
more duty ooh our manufactured lum-
ber and pulp.
It i9 to he hoped that the Canadian
government has sand enough acid wis-
douh enough to accept the challenge.
The very fact, that, in a tnriffso high-
ly protective its that under considera-
tion, Canadian logs and pulp wood tire
admitted free, is proof positive that
Uncle Sal' is short in his supply of
these articles. Arid therein lies Can-
ada's chance. The Americans have not
rot the pine not, the Spruce, and we
Pave plenty of both. The Amexicim
mills inuat,get this sit ply from Its -
they cannot get it elsewhere -or go out
of business and allow Canada to supply
the American market and the lnar etas
of the world with pine lumber, pulls
and paper. The result of an export
duty must be the temporary raising of
the price or lumber, pulp and paper in
the United States to it price the people
would not stand, and the final outcome
would be that Canada would manu-
facture these articles for the United
States.
In the face of the increase of the
duty on bituminous coal the Canadian
government cannot very well refuse
to retain or increase the present duty,,.
which will, with, the completion of the
St. Lawrence, have the effect of build-
ing up a great intercolonial trade in
Canada.
The closing out of Canadian farm
prodIlLtS will have the effect of induc-
ing Canadian farmers to grow produce
for the British market, and the whole
'effect of the hostile new tariff will ,in-
douhtedly be to lead Canada more rapid-
ly into a scheme for preferential tiit4a
with the mother country. If that be
the outcome, and we cannot see that
it will be otherwise, the new Ameri-
can tariffi1
w 1 do this country a tmt
and permanent good, for which Cana-
dians, unto the last generation, will be
greatfully thankful.
The duty of all Canadians is now to
look to London.
