J. MITCHELL, Editor and Proprietor HIGHER DUTY ON FARM IMPLEMENTS, Hon. Clifford Silton will have to take a, back seat as government offic- ial kinnouncer now that Mr. Tarte has denounced free trade as an, impossibil- ity in this country. 'there is no -long- er lioi.e that the farmer will .secure his agricultural implements free of duty. Mr. Tarte has declared that American agricultural farm machinery is to Le shut out from the Canadian markets and has promised to raise the tariff with that object in view. This should be the last straw on the backs. of those who have given their support to Sir Willrid Laurier on the strength oi the promises made by the premier and his followers that agricultural im- plements would be free. The respon- sibility for pre-election assurances of this nature has been wholly repudiated by Mr. Tarte, who is really .the soul oi the government. The men who were content to be fooled into supporting bogus free traders will now have the erivilege of paying up and looking pleasant. * 30,41111141.0.

At the American National Reciproc- ity Convention Mr. t-larke, a leading American: manufacturer, referred to the Canadian preferenee to • Great Britain. He said : • " In 1898 Canada put into effect a tariff which nOw gives to the British exporter 33 per cent. better rates than you can get if you export to Canada. Here was a chance to see how reci•• • procity would work under favorable circumstances. • With what result ? You would think England would lia.ve inade enormous gains. I. will not bother you with figures but they will say that up to and including leo() lingland had absolutely lost ground and we had gair.ed it, with a 33 per vent, dinerential duty operating a- gainst us. The Canadians had every Kind of inducement, the money induce- ment and the loyalty inducement, and the desire to buy British goods, and yet we beat the Englishmen on Can- adian ground." How much more the Yankees are congratulating themselves just now can be estimated by the enormous' he. • crease in their sales to Canada eluting 1902. len ix,iihon of dollars is not a bad gain for them to make in twelve months. And Great Britain is • still away behind in the race. .• IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE. Mr. Tarte's bountiful promises along the route of his triumphant tour should warn the people of Canada that it is time to abandon the reckless pol- icy of extravagance. At one point the visionary Minister of Public Works had to coal up in an. American port which seems to have prompted him to devise a scheme for deepening the Can- adian harbors so that coal vessels will bring coal to them, whether it is wanted or not: If coal dealers •liah known of the intended arrival of Mr. Tarte they would, no doubt, have had coal on hand for hini in every harbor, It would have been a profit- able venture. But Mn. Tarte p.nd his vessel do not conic along every day, consequently the supply of coal is pro,. portioned to the demand. • Mr. Tarte is going to deepen the harbors At Fort Williain, Port Arthur, Midland and other places. He is preparing for his colleagues' acceptance of complete plan of transportation from Fort Wil- liam to Belle Island. - On French Riv- er alone he is proposing to spend $5,- 000,000 to give the C. P. R. boats a connection with the main line at North Day. In face, Mr. Tarte smote to Imre marked his route with a promise of expenditure in every her- bor. When in the House of Comnions he met the charge of gross extrava- gance with the threat of still greater expenditures, his words were geherally regarded as jocular bravado, but his tour of the lakes shelve that his threat was made in all seriousness. ' We have had a few years of prosper- ity in Canada and the opportunity should baize been seized to reduce the debt and lessen the interest "chargee that help to burden every hiclustrial- and business enterprise. But instead of that natural and desirable result the years of prosperity have witnessed some of the greatest yearly additions to our debt. And now the man whom party exigencies have put at the head of a "great spending department" comes forward with a policy that can have no effect other than to drive in- dustry and enterprise out of the tom - try with burdensome taxation.—Weelt- ly Sun. • OODERIOII TOWNSHIP,.
