m DOillNlON PARLIAENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The first of the queBtiona to be pat by memberu aui^iveu on the notice paper was •liowed 10 ataiid over. The next waa that curious our given notice of by Mr. Guillet ms to what the Uovernmoiit proposed to do about Mr. Kilid, M. i'. for Be. .lohn, who had advocated the union of Canadit and the United States. Mr. Guillet, thouf^h preneiit. did not liae. Inviciti){ cries of " Uo on," " Gi) on," from tlie Liberal side, were raised, but Mr. Guillet leala^Iled silent. 1 lie Speaker waited a few niin- Vtes and then said " Dropped," thus ruling the (luustion utf the paper. The result was greeioi with derisive laughter by the Op- poHiiiua. Hon. Thomas White and Sir Hector LangLviii, in reply to a question by Sir Kicbard Ci- .twright, nave some informa- tion m relation to the late Haldimand election. The commissioners to value the inipruvemt-nts on the Indian lands in the vicinity of Cayuga occupied by squatters were appointed on the loth October last, the lands having been surveyed in 1H83. A circular was issued on the 'iSth October warning the sciuatters of the appointment of the comniihbioners. A site lor a post- office was purchased in Cayuga for S4oO and a runlract was lot for the building at about i'.>8.UUU. In tiiL- absence of Mr. Curran, of Mon- treal, Mr. Uevjardins, a resident of the lame city, asked whether the Government iuieiided this session to relieve the harbor of Montreal uf the charge of interest on the Lake Ste. I'oter ilebt. Sir Hector Langeviu replied ilmt the subject was under cou- aiUeratioii 1 he greater part of the afternoon was oocupii-d with a diMcnssion of the resolution presented by Mr. Wallace, of West i'oik, calling lor a cuinnutlee to investigate the natuie and etf' cc of the combinations said to exist with reference to the purchase and sale III Canada of any foreign or Canadian prmlucls .Mr. Wallace spoke at some length. Hh declared his o(Mnion in oi>en- ing that certain combinations of business men, to alvmice the Interests uf their buui- ness, weiM perfectly right and proper, but oombiuatioiiS to lix the prK'es to be de- mandtil by iiianutacturers for their goods and by tiie .ualers in those goods as well, he held to be inimical to the public welfare and an interference with the rijjhts of tlie people lu trade. He quoted the statements of Litibibouiid, Ualston >t: Company, show- ing the eX'icliuns of the sugar combine, and pointiil out that these directly tended to diive out of business all wlio were not coniiecKd with the Gruuers' Guild. In anthraciti- ci'al there was a ring, which the aboliiioii ul ine Cu>toms duty tiad not de- Btru.ied. winch kept the price in Toronto at about ;7 p^ rton, whereas, according to the oust uf laimr, freight, etc , coal couUl be sold in I oiuiitu at it a ton and give '.''i percent, profit to ever) pi rron handling it. There were cuiiildnes m other tines as well, and owing to tile eiiurinous gains reaped by those who had entered these organi/.utiuns the tunden>:y of the system was constantly to spread and include other articles. Nor was tins pejimious system confined to Canadian and .\iiiericaii prodiicls, lor Kiig- listi iiiaiiulacturers in several lines dictated ta iiiu CAxauiau dealer* at what rates they should sell llie goods. Uis preference, he said, vvas to have the duties lef ton, for then the conibinex would be more under the cuu- trtil ul tile Canadian Parlnuiieut. Ml . K>l;^ar Hitid tliat when he saw the notice ul inoiion in the name of Mr. Wal- lace lie tli'Utiht a new era had begun. He heartil) iT<incuire<i in what had been said axain^t ctiintnnes, and sup{Mirted the reso- lu'inn. l*ut pointed out that the motion did not refer to manufacturing c-oinbines, uoveiin^ only the purchase and sale of articles as hptrcilied. He strongly con- tended that Unsought not to be left beyond the ran;;)' III ttie investigation. In a few Wunls Ik- p iiMted out With telling emphasis bow the prnpheciesof the htberals at the tune the protective svst<-m was adopted had cuniei true ; hrst, a period of increased uro8p< rit V for inannfaclureM eiListiiig at the lnc<.pliiiii III the iinllcy. then a rush uf capital Into tin- protected iiuluMlries, lead- ing to ov. r |jri>d«L-tion, an unhealthy com- petition ami loss, then com-bination and an increase of prices. These renults had not belli wuiked out in the UiMtett States, with their »i.\ty millions o(f .po|iulation, until alter twenty yeaiH of prnti ction, but in the r si ricied market of Canada eight years had been suflicienl to comiilcto the course, and al-Iairs to-day stuiid e£;actly as the Liberals claimed they woidd. He denied llni: it was possible fur combines in manufaiMciiel arti' les to exist »"ilhout a piolective larilT The coiil ooinbine bad a natural tiinnopoly, for there was no duty on anthrHi'ilti in the United States and such a nuinopoly was entirely independiMit ofthetaiilT He expressed a strong belief that combines were more to U* feared at present by Americans than by Cauadiaua, because of the greater hold they had se- cured npnii the public men on the other â- lie of till! linn. He regretted that Mr. Wallace bait not followed the example of lealing U' publican I'roleclionists of the Uiiiied Sillies in declaring that if it were Decessary to do away with protection in order to kill the cnmidneH he would be will- ing to take mat slep. He quoted the ring- ing words of Mr. Masbon, of (lliicago, to this tff c!. In closing he muved to amend the resolution so as to aid the " manufac ture and sale, ' as well as "purchase and sal"" of ariirhs as mentioned, so as to enlarge the imiiiiry to include manufac- turers' coinlnnes. After the speeches the debate became general. Mr. Guillet made a speech, in which he lUclared his opinion that lo re move the piolective duties would be to ex pose the people of (laiitt'la to the far worse ooiiihinesof the United States. Hethuiight that .Mr. I'Ms^iir's suggestion might well bo accepted, being quite sure there was no in- tention on the part of the mover of liuiiiing the scope of the investigation. Then (Mine Mr. Lister. He declared for the radical cure suggested by Mr. Kdgar â€" the repeal of the protective duties Dr. Sproiile, of Grey, then took up the cudgels on ihe other side, and accused Mr. Lister of favmiiig protection to the oil in- terest of his (Mr. Lister's) own County of Lambton, which Mr. Lister admitted, hold- ing that so lung as the protective system was maintained that industry should not be siui4leil out to bo placed at a disad- vantage. Mr. Wallsoe quoted Mr. Lister's words in the case referreci to, which bore oat what the latter had claimed, and spoke briefly in answer to what had been said. He ac- cepted Mr. Edgar's amendment. Hon. Peter Mitchell, who, aa a Mon- trealer, has special opportunity for ob- serving the ill effect of combines, spoke strongly in support of the motion. He condemned particularly the effects of the coal oil ring, while admitting that if he had been in Mr. Lister's place be would have taken exactly his view of thecHse. He announced himself as a National Folic, man, as the National Policy was under- stood in 187y. but said he opposed stroiigh such duties as were now imposed. He be- lieved in a redu«tion of the duties to a reasonable level, but warmly declared that the true plan was to seek improved trade relations with the United States. lie appealed especially to the Finance Minis ter. Sir Charles Tupper. whose ability he lauded. Sir Charles looked at him like a sphinx until Mr. Mitchell spoke of him as " the gentleman whom I am glad to see occupy his high place, so long aa I cant occupy it myself," and then a smile broke over the Finance Minister's features while the House laughed heartily. Mr Mitchell urged the Government to take hold of this matter vigor- ously, and said ho saw no reason why tney should not, unless it was, as he feared, that the contributions the members of com bines had made to keep the Government in power had given them too ureot a hold upon the Government. •' If that is so," he said, " then poor, unfortunate Canada, I pity you 1" a sentiment which was greeted with loud cheering. The resolution was carried, Mr. Edgar's amendincnt being incorporated. The following form ihe committee ; Messrs. Bain (Soulanges), Bain (Wentworth). Kichard Bovie, Casgrain, l>aly, Flynn, GiUmor, Guillet, Granbois, Landr), McDougtld (Piciou). McKay, Fisher, Wood (West Northumber- land) and Wallace. Mr. White, referring to the iniiuiry of Mr. McMiiUen on the previous day regard- ing the alleged overcharjie claimed by Iho Dominion Land Agent at Kegina, for fur uishing iufurmalion to an intending settler, said the original papers in the case showed that the fee of one dollar and twenty cents was all that was asked for preparing plots of nine townships and not twenty-one dol- lars and hfty cents aa Mr. McMullen had stated. Mr. Davin said he knew the Kegina agent, and believed the charge was entirely without fouudation. Mr. Watson exonerated the regular Gov- ernment land agents from the charge of extortion, but said that the agents of the culoui/atiun companies, who were occasion- ally auihori/ed to act for the Dominion Government, were guilty of chargiug out- rageous fees and fleecing the settlers. Mr. White, in answer to the inquiry of Sir Kichard Cartwright, said the sum of S 1^)0.701 had been received from the sale of lands in Manitoba and the Northwest dur- ing the year 1887. Mr. Guillet proceeded to inquire what action the Government proposed to take in the case of Mr. Ellis, member for St. John, who, he alleged, had declsred himself an advocate of annexation with the United Slates, contrary to his oath of allegiance to the (jiieei), by which he qualified as a mem ber ul the House. Mr. Lister raised a point of order. The question contained an allegation and a re- flection uii a member uf the lluuse. Mr. Speaker ruleti thequeslion out of order on the ground raised hy Mr Lister. Sir Charles Tupper laid on the tabin the estimates for the Uscal year ending .luiie, ISH'.l. which, on motion, were referred to the CoinuiKlee cf Supply. Sir Hichard Cartwrijiht congratulated the Finance Minister on the pruiiiptitudu with which the estimates had been brought down, and inquired when the Huuse might expect the financial statement. Sir Charles Tupper said ho was not able to give the exact date, but it was his iu- tentioii to proceed with the estimates, as was the practice in England, in advance of the Budget speech. â- Sir Kichard Cartwrtght said that .vas a new departure, but he was not disposed to raise any objection to it. Ho had uo doubt it had been well considered, and hu thoui;lit there was some convenience in it. He pre- sumed the budget would not be delivered at any rate as early as next week. Sir Charles Tup[)er â€" No. Mr. Barron asked if the Government intend to pay Mrs. Gowanlock, widow of Mr. Gowanlock, who was killed by the Indians at Frog Lake during the late Northwest rebellion, a pension in the same manner and to the same extent as was paid to Mrs. Delaney. Mr. While replied that Mr. Gowanlock was not in the employ of the Indian De- partment, while ^lr. Delaney was. The lormer was at the time of the outbreak building a mill at Battleford, for which the T>epartment was paying his firm a bonus. Mt. Delaney was a fart:i instructor. Mrs. Giiwanloik had already received for her personal loss if',)U7, ami the firm of which her husband was a member had been paid Sl,'.i02, half of which went to the estate of tiio deceased. Mr I'ope, in reply to Mr. Weldon (St. Juhiil, said that '};:!. 1I71,0(1U was the ainoiint charged to the capital account of the Inter culunial Kailway during the last four fiscal years. Mr. Taylor, in moving the House into committee of thj whole to consider u reso lutioii declaring it expedient to introduce a Bill pr'ividing for the regula* i n, manufac- ture and sale of rendered lard, said he believed there was as great necessity for legislation to restrict the iinportaiioii of adulterated lard as there was in the case of butter. The reoult of the Oleomargarine law paused two sessions ago was that our imports of butter, so called, had decreased by about one million pounds. Of the three and a half million pouinlH of lard that were imported during last year, he had iiodoiiht that a large proportion was of spurious manufacture, cotton setd oil and other injurious substances entering into its com- position- The laril that was maiiiifaclureil within the country was not so adulterated. The interests of the agriculturists, bo believed, demanded that the prodnclioii nf lard should be protected in the same way as butter, by having the imported article detained in bond till it is properly inspected and analywd. Mr. Sproulo supported the motion, which was carried. Some returns were called lor, and the Uouae adjourned at li o'clock. ONTARIO LEGISLATURE. Mr. Clancy moved for an order of the House for a return showing the ustimated cost, if any, and actual cost perjardfor each dram constructed by or under the Government within the counties of Lamo- tun, Kent, Elgin and Essex and the name of the engineer or other person employed by the Ontario Guveruuieut to make such estimate. The price per yard at which the work was let and whether at public sale or by tender. The salarn a or other reuiimeralioii paid the entiineers or other persons employed by the Ontario Govern- ment to superintend the construction of the said drainage works, and charged to the said works respectively. The hon. mem- ber charged that he had not been fairly treated in connection with his request for these returns. Other members bad askeil last session for returns on various unitters, and they hud been furnished this session, but the returns he had asked fur had nut been. Hon. Mr. Eraser promised that these also should be brought down. Mr. Meredith asked if the resolution passed in 1884. requiring that there should be laid upon the table during the first ten days of every session a statement shewing the indebtedness of each municipality in arrears, had been complied with iliis year He thought the resolution Iniii been com- plied with every year until the present. He had not seen it this year. Ue would ask what ate(-js had been taken by the Govern- ment with a view to suttlirg up those arrears. Hon. .Mr. Uoss (Huron) said the return al- luded to had not been yet broutiht down. The Department had been exceptionally busy during the past >ear, as some of the members knew from proceedings eonducteil elsewhere, but he would proiniso to have them laid before the Hmise as soon as possible. As to the steps taken to wind up such arrears, he would say that hu had made some progress. It was a very diffi- cult matter once a municipality got into ar- rears to enforce collection of indebteiliiess ; thu Government, however, was doing its best. Mr. Waters moved the second reading of his Bill to amend the Assessment Act. He explained that thu utijecl of the Bill was to do away with the assessment of farming stouk. There were two reasons why this system should bo abolished. One was that where capital was assessed incuine shuiild nut be. That was a principle that was generally admitted. 'The secund reason was that the scale of assessment of farm- ing stock was unfair and inequitable. The hon. gentleman went i.iio these points minutely, and then asked that the Bill be read a second tune and, if thu House thought proper, referred then to the Muni- cipal Coininiitee. The Bill was read a second tiiiiu and re. ferred to the Municipal Ci iiiiiiittee. Mr. Conuiee moveil tBe second reading of his Bill to amend the Municipal Act. He explained that its ubjecl was to enable inunicipal corporations to constriii:t waii>r works for special purposes only. This amendment proposeil lo kivo thi in power to constrtict such works for gein^ral pur poses. The Bill also proposed idianges in the method of assessing for the ci'St uf siic-h works. The Bill was read a second time. The House went into committee, Mr. Awrey in the chair, and reported the fol lowing Bills : Uespei ting the .Methodist Church of Aurora - Mr. Widiiilield. To authorise the trustees of Toronto General Biirving Grounds to sell certain lands- Mr. E F. Claike. To provide for the diMsion of the town- ship of Walsingliam â€" Mr. O (Connor.
