The stupid resort of `protectionists'

A Timely Dissection.
The Toronto Monetary Tunes dis-
cusses the changed tariff from a
strictly commercial standpoint. It
criticises some of Mr. Foster's views
with considerable severity. Take!
this ijlustration:
"The primary reason, given for'
changing the tarifa' is that the condi- ".
tions of trade have changed within !
the last fourteen years, when what is
called the National Policy was first
put into operation. This alleged
change is not made very clear, and
without -fuller explanation it is not
possible to Understand the nature of
the foundation on which the new tariff
is to be built But we are told that,
in the first years of protection the
greatest measure of it was needed.
That, however, has not been the rule.
followed in Canadian tariff legisla-
tion since 1878. ,The highest duties
. were not enacted at the start. Ott
the contrary, the foundation stone of
the National Policy was `rearrange-
ment without increase of duties.'
Higher (luties,altd with thein avowed
protection, came later.. Now, 11 we are
told., the ` circumstances of industry,
and the conditions of business and of
trade,' permit and justify reductions.
What these 'circumstances' and 'con-
ditions' € re we are not told. The ad-
xlii.3lon that protection does not imply
a fined and unalterable amount of
duty is equivalent to saying that the
quantity is variant, and, in part at
ev4111esCellt. I3etwe('tl this and
Mr. McCartity's contention that pro-
tection having now served its pttllx>se,

ertiiit that he has -lone so, that
to buy, with the protests made by
the Northwest farmers themselves
against the countenance of that sys-
tem which bore ,s.) heavily upon
theta. The fact was the .doctor
asserted, that the Northwest members
did not fairly- represent the views of
the farmers of"that country. lYlien
two years ago the Liberal party had
demanded that the stendatrd of sugar
to be admitted free be raised to No,
1(1 Dutch standard, ,lir. Davin voted
and Spoke against it, but now when
the standard had • beets raised to that
point he had the audacity to commend
the Government for it. Turning to
the Controller of Customs, 1)r. Mac-
donald said that Mr. Wallace had
stated something he knew to be false.
He was called to order for this by
Deputy Slx'aker Bergeron, who was
in the chair at .the time. Dr. Mac-
donald protested. that 110 had riot said
anything that could be taken as au
accusation that the Controller had
lied. However, he •nlarlified the
statement by saying that Mr. Wallace
had made a statement that he had
known to be false. That statement
was that the policy of the Liberal
party was commercial 1u11011. Com-
inerel11.u11i011 had never been the
policy of the Liberal party, and be
challenged saw member of the House
to 'show that it had been. Mr. Mc:
Neill undertook to show it, and point-
ed. to the speeches of some "hon.
gentlemen opposite" as proof of' his
contention. Dr. Macdonald replied
that the Liberal party could not be
held responsible for the statements of
individuals. If Mr. McNeill applied
that argument to the Liberals it
could with equal justice be asserted
that the Conservative party approved
of annexation because 11Ir. Sol White,
013e Of their number, WAS 1111 avowed
annexationist. Mr. Wallace had, the.
doctor alleged, endeavored to mislead

Dr, Macdonald then directed the
attention of the Mouse to the manner
in which another natural industry
had been treated. Salt had been
placed on the ' free list, it'itlt the
result that the salt well owners
of Huron County had 40 compete with
the Michigan and Syracuse salt pro-
. queers. They were perfectly willing
to compete with the .Americans, pro-
vided. they were placed on a footing
of equality with the Americans.
While salt was put oil the free list,
the bituminous coal which was used
in the industry had a duty of (i0
cents .a ton imposed upo11 it. The
Sy'raeuse producers had free coal, and
the iiichigan wells used mill refuse
for the fuel. Givell free coal, the
Huron salt 111011 would find no fatilt
with free salt. Dr. Macdonald re-
marked the absence of Hon. Mr Pat-
terson from the House, and said. that
lie would have to explain to the
people of Huron why' Ile had neglect-
ed their interests.While he had
stood 1)y the interests of Lambton he
had forgotten those of the people
whom. lie represented in Parliament,
to the end that they were obliged to
apply to the representative of another
constituency to bring the matter to
the attention of the Iiouse. The
doctor read a letter from the Secre-
tary of the Canada Salt Co., dated
March 28, who pronounced this
feature of the tariff to be "the most
damnable • robbery ever perfoi'nied
politically," and who concluded with
this statement :—"Give us:sfree coal
and we will compete with the Amer-
, leans."
