MITCHELL, Editor and Proprietor THE WEEK IN PARLIAMENT. The week in parliament was marked by an adjournment.from Tuesday to Thursday as a token of respect to 'the late Sir Oliver Mowat. Both leaders. and Mr. E. te. Clarke paid high tri- butes to the Crand Old Man of On- tario. . The but'gel de'nte was continued. • S:r Richai u turht disowned all los past pledges by claiming that it was the duty of the governincnt to first see that the country was pros- perous. He hoped to, see the day when Canada would have a surplus. of 530,0110,0en, although surpluses were the horror of his life Previous to 1896. . Mr. Charlton, at the solicitation of• Sir Wilfred Laurier, revived the agi- tation for reciprocity. with the United States." He denounced the British Pre- ference , and supported Hon. W. S. Fielding's contention that it .shculd. be abolished, Hon. J. Israel Tarte made a .strong attack on the government and de- clared that while the cabinet ,was ad- vocating Free Trade in -the. open they arranged a secret deal with the manu- facturers 1.0 maintaina 'high tariff,. He reflected cn the ministry by stat- ing some of his former colleagues were dishonest men, who stabbed. him in the back •and forced him to resign.. Mr. James Clancy, the Conserva- tive member of. " Bothwell, 'clearly• showed that the gcvernment intends to make a dead set in favor of reci- procity with the United States. He exposed the .plot by revealing - Sir Wilfred Laurier's 'job to catch the vote of Americans -entering • the Northwest, even at . the expense oI Canadians. Mr. Clancy. called for a policy for all Canadians and the abolition ,of sectionalism. Mr. Davis, Liberal, also supported the reciprocity scheme and sulnuitted that the West did not .care for home markets. I - Dr. Sproule, Conservative member for East Grey-, made .a strong attack on the extravagance. of •the . present administration and shcwed how the expenditure had grown to an • undue extent. "Ur. Borden expresSed itt the MaSt energetic manner the opinion that we en and that we should niautifae. tore here a large proportion of the things which we buy abroad. "It Seeaus tome that there can he au doubt on this point and it appears to be the strangest thing posaible that there ate those who refuse to See matters in alt:s ALL FORMER CON- TENTIONS ABANDONED. The Liberal party has gone back on everything it said in favor of the /3rit- ish preference and. has come out bold- ly for the abrogation unless Great Britain is prepared to concede to Canadian wares a mutual preference. This is one of the most surprisiug of a surprising series of somersaults which has brought the whole Liberal party into direct opposition to all the principles it laid down up to 1897. The free gift offered the motherland in return for the splendid freedom be- atowea on Canadians is now a ineutice to our industrial life. The men who boasted that they would not insult the home authorities by huckstering for a mutual preference and who vot.ed down resolutions favoring it, were on their knees a few months ago praying for just such a concession. Now, by undignified threats, they seek to force the hand of the Imperial parliament. At tbe same moment they are ne- gotiatifig with the United States with a view to re -opening the question of reciprocity. The .13ritish, preference ceases to have force in secorilig sup- port for Sir Wilfred Laurier and • his Patriotism is exhausted. His first love the United States, still provides temptation that is irresistible. Eng- land has tic, longer any charm for the Liberal leader, now that he has his "tin pot" title and his Cobden 'medal,. However, it will be to Sir . • Wilfred's' :idvantage to stay his hand in his crusade of "Cali:Ida for Americans" and F .e to tl.e peacy of "Canada for Canad leas. " ' I • irtraiCtl: TOWSItatt On Monday morning lest there passed into reef another of the pion- cers of this county in the person of Mrs. John Churchill, who had reached the advanced age of ninety-four years. She was a aative of Tipperary, Ire - lead, and 'came to this country with her husband nearly seventyyears ago. Few five yeai yeas they dwelt n the coun- ty of York and then moved to Godee- mit township where they took up land on ,the titli concession.' There they lived for very *natty years and under- went all the ;hardships incident to pioneering. Seven sons and two daughters were born to them, only three of whom -remain residents of Huron.

Borden, • the leader of the Conservative party, in 'what - is ad- ignitted by the Liberals to be one 01 e finest speeches ever delivered on • tke 'Canadian budget, has laid' down a broad and patriotic policy ' for the development of this country. He calls upon his fellow. countrymen -to forego the mischievous doctrine of an East and a West. What Canadians want is an all -Canadian policy with provision for the needs' of the country as 'a. whole. The West, needs transportation - and the East requires a full protection of her industries.. Old Canada, has materially assisted her western breth- ren and is willing to go further in. extenhing legitimate aid in theway of forwarding facilities. This' is only collation justice but it shows beneath the surface a strong desire to make a nation out of the Dominion. Thatais exactly what Mr. Borden- abuts to .ac•- coinplish and he has called for a tariff which will meet the wishes of all classes apd bring them .to a. desire to see, not the development of any par- ticular section, but the growth of. what will be truly national. He speaks for a policy which'having re- gard for the interests of the mother- land and the empire, will first con- serve the welfare of Canada. Mr. Borden has . taken a comprehensive - and statesmanlike view of our 'con- ditions and has made it plain that he is; not a leader for the. East or for the West, but a Canadian in the • full- est sense of the word. Let us have less of the narrow gua.ge politics of the gentlemen in whose hands the govern- ment of the country now lies and substitute for it an era such .as gra Borden proposes. • ,PRAISE FOR MR. BORDEN. 'rho following appreciation of Mr. Borden's speech, in reply to Hon. Mr. ,appears in Hon. Mr, Tarte's correspondence in I,a Petrie : "The leader of the Opposition re- plied this afternoon to the Finance Minister, and Ile made, without con- tradiction, the best speech of his par- liamentary career. •" Ile went straight eci the point. Ile pronounced ilhaself without any inn- biguity in favor of a protective policy for all of our national industries. "Yon will do him this jultice, I know, in putting his declaration be. fore your readers as it is of the first importance that the citizens of Canada Should give to this vital qtioatiofi of the tariff their best attention. .
