•Kr. Gillmor shared with the members
:from St. Johnin their excessive loyalty.
He believed in the mainteance and inte-
grity a the Empire,but he did not see why it
could not as well be maintained under free
• trade as under protection. He would vote
for, a resolution of free trade witle, the
Mother Land. He would as soon expect to
see England go back to African slavery as to
protection. Protection was a selfish, wicked,
sinful, thing.
Mr. Macdonald (Winnipeg) expressed
himself as cordially in favor of the resolu-
tion. He dwelt upon the material advan-
tages to Canadians of British connection,
• but went on to Inv that it was upon senti-
mental grounds after all that the Canadians
favored connection with the Mother Coun-
try. When Richard Cobden began the
great campaign which ended in the over-
throw of the corn lavas in Britain, he had
.only a few men about him. In Britain there
were already a hundred members of the
House of Commons who had voted in favor
of preferential trade arrangements with the
-colonies. There was a strong feeling of
. distrust of the future on the part of the
• British workingmen. They found them-
. selves suffering from foreign competition.
s Such a measure as this would tend to afford
•relief. But above all it would advance the
;interests og Canada, which should be the
'tfirst consideration with Canadian public
t men.
Mr. Watson denied that the Manitobans
• were afraid of being flooded out by the
• tproducts of the United States, for in their
„natural products they did not fear competi-
tion with the world. As to manufactures
• they had none, and therefore had no inter-
est in protection for manufactures. In the
'last general election there was not a Con-
servative candidate dared to face the trade
.question.
• Mr. Foster, after congratulating the
• inember for North Bruce on his speech, and
thanking him for introducing his resolution,
stated that although in his opinion it would
be a good thing for Canada to have reason-
able trade relations with the United States,
and although it would be a better thing to
have the advantage of a proposition of this
kind, he did not believe hat the future of
Canada, its progress and development, de-
pended upon either ono or the oaher.
Mr. Davies said the porelerous platiffides
of the Finance Minister would hardly be
taken by the promoters cd this resolution as
compensation for the cold el ater which, for
the greater part of his sp.nch, he poured
upon it.
He moved in • amendment that all
the words after • " that " be
omitted • and the followingsubstituted:
"Inasmuch as Great Britain admits ths.
products of Canada into her ports free of
duty, this House is of opinion that the
present scale •of duties exacted by Canada
on goods mainly imported from Great
Britain should be reduced."
A division was taken on the amendment,
resulting as follows: Ayes 64, nays 98.
The original motion was then carried as
'follows : Ayes 97, nays 63.
Sir Richard Cartwright asked if the
tenant farmers' reports were ready to bring
elown, as he understood they were to be
brought down the day after the last discus.
sion on immigration.
Mr. Carling said that the report of
those delegates who visited the Maritime
Provinces had • never been 'received. He
supposed they ha4 been sent to the High
<Commissioner.
The House went into Committee of the
Whole ()utile hill respecting United States
• fishing vessels.
Mr. Laurier suggested that the second
clause relating to the issue of licenses by
:Newfoundland should be struck out:
On motion for Committee of Supply,
Mr. Watson rose to call attention to the
subject of the duty on binding twine. He
stated that petitions against this duty had
been received by the House from the
Patrons of Industry and the Dominion
'Grange, representative organizations of the
farmers of this country: It was as good as
admitted that the bindertwine manufactory.
of Canada was controlled by the National
,Cordage Company of the United States,. by
which name the great binder twine monopoly
of the United States was known. He had
been informed by one of the leading dealers
in Manitoba that it was about a toss-up
with his firm whether they should import
American twine and pay the duty or -buy
Canadian twine. This was proof positive
that the farmers had to pay tribute • to
the Canadian factories to the extent of
the duty. There was no revenue from
this article, so that the Government would
not lose anything by removing this
duty. This tax was particularly onerous
upon the people of Manitoba, because they
cultivated a larger" quantity of land per
-capita than the people of the other Prov-
inces. He had gone into a careful examina-
tion of the prices on either side of the line,
, and found that the additional price to Can-
udian farmers was about 3 cents per pound.
,On the crop of last year this would repre-
• sent a tax upon the farmers of Manitoba of
t$117,000. Upon the whole of ,Canada the
tax amounted to $400,000. it might be
-denied that the National Cordage Company
was owner of the Canadian Mills. But he
• found in a favotable notice of thiscompany
, in the Beaton Transcript a declaration to
the effect that they had purchased all the
Canadian factories, and that as there was a
• protective duty they would do well. Surely
it was time to do something when they
•found that the dealers declinedto quote
prices tb farmers until they should know
• whether the chit was to be removed or not.
He closed' by moving a resolution declaring
• that binder twine should be placed on the
free list.
Mr. Mulook secoadecl the esolution.
He read a letter from Robert Wilkie, Secre-
• tary of the Ontario Grand Lodge of Patrons
of Industry, to the effect that binding twine
• wan increased in price in Canada by about
the amount of the duty, or ahnost 3e. per
;pound. The duty in the United States was
only a tenth of one cent per pound. When,
`the duty was removed from sugar the
sFinatioe Minieter declared he had relieved the
•'people from taxietionaind the fact was proven
by an immediate drop in the price of sugar.
'Why would not the ean-te result follow the
Temoval of the duty on twine? Now that
this industry was in the control of a mon-
opoly of foreigner% it was surely most
lunpatriotio of the Government to leave in
the hands of these men the power to tax so

industrial pepulation.

Mr. Sutherland, continuing the debate,
,quoted from a report of the preeicient Of the
American Cordage CoMpany showing the
factories eentrolled Were 49 in number, P
Whieh included all alio:factories in 'Canada. a'
The profit e of the combine for the year were
$1,406,000, while the dividenda paid to
stockheldere amounted to $1,300,000. •No
argument could he advanced in favor ef
maintaining this duty, aft it wee ooly puts
Ong the Veiny of oar forMere into the

• Mr, O'Brien said the resolution was made
in such a manner as to be objectionable to
gentlenten on his side of the House'hews
ever disposed some of them might ho to sup-
port the principle embodied.
Mr, Christie said he must raise hie voice
against the iniquitous system whieh had
fostered se many combines. The time was
come when this duty should be removed.
There were a great many other combines
besides that.
Mr. 1Viailelullen, said the Government had
declined to allow the original motion to
stand on the order paper, and hence the
member for Marquette was compelled to
take this means, by moving an amendment
to the motion to go into supply, of bringing
his motion before the House, He was sur-
prised that the member ftr Muskoka would
not support the resolution. His loyalty
should induce him to favor the English
'manufacturer of binding twine, as would be
the case if this resolution was carried.
Binding twine was as much a raw material
for the farmer as twine for fishing was for
fishermen and the fanner suffered more,
because While the fisherman's twine would
last him for several years, after the farmer
had used the twine once it was done with
The very cord with which you lowered the
remains of your friend intO the grave was
manufactured under a combine.
Mr. Fairbaine said unless the previous
speaker could show that the American
farmer was receivinghis twine cheaper than
• theCanadian vvas getting it, he had no case.
He had given this subject a good deal of
study, and lee was bound to say that he had
affidavits showing that the Canadian farmer
was paying no more for his twine than was
the American farmer.
Mr. McMillan (Ifuron) said the gentleman
who had opoken on the other side acknow-
ledged that a case could be made out if it
was shown that the American farmer got
his binding twine cheaper than the Cana-
dian farmer did. He quoted Mr. Massey
as having stated that he could buy binding
twine in the States, pay the duties to bring
it into this country, and then it would
cost him no morelhan if he had bought it
in Canada. There might be some excuse
for a duty when the money went into the
treasury, but when it went to a combine
that excuse could not be pleaded.
Mr. Smith (South Ontario)- defended the
duty. If it was removed we would have to
get all our binding twine from the United
States, while if it were retained, Manitoba
hemp would be employed to a great extent
in preparing that product, most necessary
for the manufacture of binding twine.
Mr. Henderson said that the higher duty
on binding twine coming into Canada than
on twine going into the United States was
no evidence whatever that we were paying
higher for twine than the people of the
United States. It was true that when the
• duty was taken off sugar the price of sugar
went down. Nobody expected anything
else. The duty on sugar was put on for
revenue purposes. When, after years of
economical administration,it was found they
coield do without that revenue they re-
moved theduty. But the dutyon binder twine
was intended to promote an industry, and
to remove it would only be to kill that in-
dustry. The quantity of binding twine
required was uncertain until the crop was
actually reaped, but by agreeing to take
back unbroken packages the Canadian manu-
facturers gavegreat advantage to the
dealers, which in turn reached the con-
sumers. If the Canadians had to depend
upon foreign manufacturers, a heavy crop
might cause such a demand as would leave
them with only one-quarter of a supply.
Mr. Casey said the gentlemen opposite
said about binder twine what they had said
about all other articles which were subjects
of the proteetive tariff yea: This article is
manufactured in Canada cheaper and better
than elsewhere, therefore Canadian manu-
facturers must have protection." ' He ridi-
culed this position.
Mr. Lister contended that the House
ought to hear from the member for Halifax
(Mr. Stairs), who was a representative of
the National Cordage Company, the mon-
opoly which controlled this business in Can-
ada. The hon. gentleman had an interview
this afternoon with the Finance Minister on
this subject, and the House had a right to
know the result of that interview. He in-
vited the member for Halifax to state his
views upon this subject.
Mr. Bain said the important point to be
noted was that farmers regarded the duty
as a tax. He ridiculed the gentlemen oppo-
site for their claims of loyalty, contrasted
with their willingness to maintain duties for
the benefit of a great monopoly of Ameri-
cans.
At the conclusion of Mr. Bain's address
the House divided on Mr. Watson's amend-
ment to place binder twine on the free list,
which was lost. Yeas 64, nays 107.
The House went into Committee of Sup
ply and passed several items relating to
immigration.
Sir John Thompson agreed to Mr.
Laurier's request that the debate be resumed
at 3 o'clock on Wednesday next.
Sir John Thompson said he begged to ask
permission to introduce a bill readjusting
the representation of the constituencies in
this House in accordance with the notice
which stood in his name on the paper. He
was sure the bill would be well received by
the House, if he could judge by the anxiety
evinced by the gentlemen opposite that it
should be brought down. He did not claim
this bill would satisfy everybody. That
was the only misgiving he had upon the
subject, but he thought those disposed to
criticise a measure of this character, apart
from every political consideration, would
say that those who are not pleased are
hard to please. Ontario had in 1881 a
population of 1,926,922, now itE4 population
was 2,112,989 ; Quebec in 1881 had 1,359,-
027, now 1,488,586 ; Nova Scotia in 1881
440,572, now 450,523 ; New Brunsvvick in 1881
321,233, now 321,294; Prime Edward
Island, in 1881,. 108,891, now 109,088;
Manitoba, in 18i1, 2,260, now 154,442;
British Columbia, in 1881 49,49; now 92,-
767; Territories, ia 188 25,515, now 67,-
554. The redie I ribu would leave
Ontario 92 members, Ise at present, and
Quebec 65, as at present; Nova Scotia, by
reason of the fact that the growth of popu-
lation had not been as great as in the other
provinces, would lose . one member, and
would hereafter have 20 instead of 21;
New Brunswick, for the same reason, in-
stead of having 16 would have 14 ; Prince
Edward Island, instead of having 6 would
have 5; Manitoba, Which new had 5, would
be entitled tee 7. The representation of the
Territories was based on an arbitrary
arrangement, whicoh it was not proposed to
disturb. There were now, and sbill would
be, 4 members ; British Columbia, according
to the proportion of popolation, woald
be entitled to 4 members, but, under
the terms of the Act of Union, the
province rnuet have 6 representatives
until by increase of 'population it was en-
titled to more. In Prince Edward Island

from the city and county, making the rep-,
resentation hereafter one member for the
city and one for the city and colint5a It
was intended to join the countice of Sunbury
and Queen's. Thus two members would be
out out, leaving fourteen representatives.
The city and County of Bt. john had a
population of 49,374. The united counties
of Sul:diary and Queen's would have 17,935.
In Nova bootie the smallest constituency
was the County of Queen's, with a media
tion of 10,610. Shelburne'the adjoining
county to the westward, had 14,954,
while the adjoining county to the
eastward was Lurienburg, with 81,076. It
was propesecl to unite the counties of Shel-
burne and Queen's, with a population of a
little over 24,000. The unit of the popula-
tion in the Province would be about
22,000. Conaing to the Province of
Quebec, he desired to mention that there
were some leading features not connected
with the question of the aggregate of pope.-
lation. There were great centres of popu-
lation in the Province which should. have
larger representation. The city of Montreal,
which had three members, had a population
of 182,695. Hochelaga had 80,998, the two
together having a population of 263,693
with four members. In the opinion of the
Government it was just that the represen-
tation of the city should be increased to five,
and Hochelaga should have two members
In addition to that, the County of Ottawa
called for an additional representative be-
cause of increased population. Under the
new arragement it was proposed that Ottawa
county should be divided into two coun-
ties, each with a populationof about 32,000.
in•Ontario there world be very few changes.
Just as in Quebec, it was necessary to give
large centres of population, Ottawa county,
Montreal and Ifoohelaga, additional repro-
eentation in the House, it was found it
could not be done without altering constitu-
encies having smaller population, so reasons
called for changes in Ontario of the sanie
kind. There is the case of Toronto, which
calls for a change, as in the case of Mont-
real, and requires an additional represen-
tative. There is a necessity likewise for
providing an additional representative for
the district of Algoma. Also theyproposed
to give a member to Nipissing district,
known as North Renfrew, and which in-
cluded a portion of Eastern Algoma. .In
giving an additional member to the city of
Toronto, the Niagara district would be
reconstructed so as to bring the constituen-
cies about up to the average
population. The electoral dietrict of Lincoln
and Niagara world consist Of the town of
• Niagara, the city of Si. Catharines'the
townships of Grantham, Clinton, Louth,
Pelham and Gainsborough, and the villages
of Beamsville and Port Dalhousie. The
electoral district of Welland shall consist of
the townships of Bertie, Cnowland,Ilumber-
ston, Stamford, Thorold and Willoughby,
the villages col Chippewa, Fort Erie,Niagara
Falls, Thorold and Welland,Haldimand and
Monk shall consist of the townships of
Oneida, Rainham, Seneca, North Cayuga and
South Cayuga, Canborough' DuninMoniton,
Sherbrooke, Wainlieet, andthe villages of
Caledonia, Cayuga, Hagersville and Dunn-
ville. South Wentworth shall consist of the
townships of &Whet, Binbrook, Barton,
Glanford, North and South Grimsby,
CaistoriEast and West Flamborough,
the town of Dundee'the villages
of Grimsby and Waterclown. North
Wentworth -and Brant shall consist of the
townships of Ancaster, Blenheim, East.,
Brantford, South Dumfries, and Beverley.
These were the only changes made by the
bill in the Province of Ontario. It would
be observed that the reconstruction which
world take place was confined to Toronto
and the group of districts about Ontario
lake.

22,104. It was not proposed at present
to make anyehange in the representation of
the Territories. No change was required
in the number of members for the Province
of British Columbia, but some change was
calledfor by the alterations in the popula-
tion of certain districts.

VIE TRAVELLING DAIRY
Rata 011 the Uove—whe Experiment of
• /met Tear Developed on a Substantial
84101$.-8eMe reintere Ior Tito1e In-
•terested.
The lame Travelling Dairy ie probably
familiar to readers of the Times who are
interested in dairy matters, for during last
;summer reports %mewed from time be time
la the leedeng daily pe,pere telling of the
work being done in various parts of the
Province by Prof, Dean, of the Ontario
Agricultural College, and his two aesietants,
Messrs. Palmer and Brown, who helped him
in his difficult task of bringing the most
modern methods of making butter and test-
ing milk practically before the eyes of the
farmers, and of lecturing on those most im-
portant subleets—the breeding, care and
feeding of milch cows, the handling of milk,
and on all subjects bearing on dairy farming.
°limn TGE TRAVELLING DAIRY.
It will be remembered that the Hon.
John Dryden, Minister of Agriculture
for Ontario, first conceived the
idea of pending a travelling dairy through
the Province to give farmers and their
wives and daughters practical instruction in
butter -making and to arouse a keener
interest in dairy matters generally. For
this purpose he obtained a small appropria-
tion from the Legislature, and on consult-
ing with President Mills, of the Agricultural
°college, they decided to send out Prof.
Dean and two assistants, who were to take
with them a complete outfit of butter -
making and milk -testing apparatus, and to
hold meetings at various places as arranged
beforehand by Mr. Mills with the seoretariee
of the different Farmers' Institutes.
weia wonx ACCOMPLISHED LAST YEAR.
This unique but useful contrivance to
help the farming community, and the con-
sumers Of butter as well, proved successful
beyond all expectation. it was thought at
first that during the summer, when farmers
were necessarily very burly, they would
hardly turn out to the meetings, but the
contrary was soon proved, for not
only did the farmers and townspeople
ttirn out, but a • large number of
ladies always appeared on the scene, who
took a great interest in the proceedings.
After the work was once begun letters
arrived daily at President Mills' office ask-
ing that the Travelling Dairy might visit
this or that county, but it was impossible
to go everywhere. During the months of
July, and August three counties • were
pretty well covered, namely, York, Ontario
and Sinnott. Twenty-seven meetings were
held in all, the attendance ranging from 30
up to 500 people. During September ten of
the leading fall fairs were visited and in
October twelve meetings (including attend-
ance at three fairs) were held, in Essex
county.
At the outset many difficulties presented
themselves, which, however, were gradually
overcome. In nearly every, case those in
charge met with a most cordial reception.
The meetings were largely attended and the
general opinion seemed to be that it was the
best thing that had yet been done to lift
the butter trade from its present unsatis-
fa,ctory condition, and to spread abroad
valuable dairy knowledge.
• THE WORK PLANNED FOR THIS YEAR.
As the experiment proved so successful
and of so much practical value, Mr. Dryden
decided to ask the Legislature for an in-
creased appropriation, so that it could be
continued for another year. This approprn
ation was obtained during the last session
in March. It was, however, deemed ex-
pedient to make certain changes in the pro-
posed work. First, owing to the hundreds
of aPplications sent la, it was *found neces-
sary- to send out two separate deputations—
one to go east, the other west. Second,
owing to the difficulty of arranging meetings
satisfactorily, so that proper connectioas
could be made on the trains, and also owing
to the expense incurred in reaching those
points which tile refilwAy did not couch,
it WU thought advisable to purchase
• MVO teams and waggons, so that the
different counties could be covered thor-
oughly, independent of trains or livery rigs.
With these changes the arrangements aro
practically the same as last year. The
meetings are arranged by President Mills,
aided by the Secretaries of the different
Farmers Institutes.
ITS RELATION 'TO CREAMERIES AND CHEESE
FACTORIES.
• It is thought by some that the influence
of the travelling dairy, or dairies as they
now are, will hinder the advancement of
creameries and cheese factories in the Prov-
ince; but this is not so. It was not Mr.
Dryden's intention when he first started the
dairy that it should in any way compete
with the creameries or cheese factories ; he
desired rather that they should be fostered
and upheld by every means possible; for to
develop a large and profitable export trade
in dairy products he realized that the fac-
tory system would have to be, adopted in
butter -making, as it has been adopted to a
large extent in cheese -making.
One great object of the travelling'clairy is
to aid butter -makers to leesen the cost of
producbion, and to improve the quality of
the product made in private dairies, the"
output of which finds its way to the local
markets, and being very often of poor
quality it does not satisfy the palate of the
consumer, and hence brings a poor price.
•These private dairies are often so located
that they are not within reach of factories,
or at any rate a certain amount of butter is
made, and will be made until winter dairy-
ing is adopted, before the factory opens and
after it closes. Bub this is not
the only object. Perhaps a greater
one is • to improve the condition
of the dairy cows in the Province, to dis-
cuss the breeds of dairy cattle, the best way
to breed and feed so as to produce the most
profitable breed and to talk over dairy
farming in all its different phases. In this
way the interests of the factory will be in-
creased, not diminished.
WHEN THE WORK WILL COMMENCE.
Arrangements have already been by Presi-
dent Mills for a large number of meetings;
One deputation will be in charge of W. J
Palmer, B. S. A. Mr. Palmer, a graduate
of the Agricultural College, assisted Prof.
Dean last year in his travelling dairy work.
Re has lately been attending the famous
dairy school at Madison, Wisconsin, and
visiting some of the large centrifugal
creameries in Illinois. He will be assisted
by Mr. John aleTavish, of Seaforth, who
has an extended experience in practipal
buttermaking. During the last three years
he has managed the Londesboro creamery,
owned by r. John Hannah, of Seafoeth.
This deputation will start from Garamocetie,
in county Leecle, on May 2nd, with a team
and complete oiatfit. The first meeting will
be held at Seeley'e Bay on Tuesday,
May 3rd, at .2 p. in. From thence they
Will proceed to 3/Igin en May 4th, and so en
until the county ie well covered. About
twenty-one meetinge will be held in this one
county. Dr. Preston, M. P. P., of Niiwboro,
and Mr. Freeman Button, of Gananogite,
seoretarn of the institute, are making the
necessary arratagentents. When meetinge in
this county are finiehed the deputation will

Everybody who can poesibly do so. There
is no excuse nowadaysthe farmer who
keeps in the old ruts of Thirty or forty years
ago. The man who is alive and eager to
gain knowledge bearing on agriculture,
even supposing he may know all about his
business, he is the man who will get on.
But not only the farmer, but the store-
keeper, the cheese-feetory man, the cream-
ery num, all are interested and all should
attend.

are the best medicine in the world for the
diseases you represent them for. Sold by

Boy—Is soup healthy? Parent—Why,
certainly, what made you ask? Boy—
When I smoke you say it is not healthy,
and the soup is smoking and you say it is
healthy. What does this mean, anyhow?
Jason—Now, Mandy, it's a circus to be
engaged, ain't ib? Amanda—I reckon it
will be, Jason, when we git the ring.
