Oct. 22.--Hon. Mr. Tarte here, and in an interview on the all-absorbing topic of his resignation from - the cabinet, the subject was in- troduced with this question : x "You have of course read the pre- mier's letter, as given to the press What have vou to say about it?" "Just this," Mr. Tarte replied, "that there a little misunderstand- ing between Sir Wilirid and myself. But | sappose that questions of mere detail will not very much interest the public." "But would vou have anv objection to stating what the misuncerstanding is on it Go is It is this. The prime minister states in his letter that on Sunday he intimated to me that I would have to give up my portfolio. Sir Wilfrid Laurier is, unintentional- lv. no doubt, in error as to that. He did me the honor to call upon me Sunday and we discussed the posi. tion. I trankly admit that he found fault with my utterances. 1 explained to him not for the purpose of having him retain me as his colleague, but for the sake of argument ana truth, that 1 had spoken in his presence ex- activ as | had done since he leit. And this statement of mine he did not de- ny. In point of fact it cannot be dis- puted. However, after having talked matters over | told © him that he might take my resignation -that very moment. He - answered me that he was not in the habit of coming to hasty conclusions. 1 have 'the oreat- est respect for Sir Wilirid Laurier. He and 1 have always been good personal friends. Well, 1 agreed to wait, gs requested by him, although 1 told him that I didn't see any possibility of an aareement. I called upon him at his office after I had been telephoned by him toldo so. There 1 repeated to Sir Wilfrid what I haa said the day before, namely, that my portfolio was at his immedi- ate disposal. L left for Toronto at 11 a.m. Aiter reflection on the way tof Toronto, I made up my mind it yas no use leaving things in abeyance. So I sent in my resignation. These are the facts. But again let me say the dytails have great importance." "Mr. Tarte says a year ago in Mon- treal, in Sir Wilirid's presence, he ex- pressed his belief in tariff revision. He spoke similarly in Toronto, in par- lament. "1 feel, therefore," the ex-minister, "that Sir Wilfrid has no justification from the record. in stat- ing that | started this discussion on the tariff in his absence." "*How, then." Mr. Tarte "do you explain all with vour colleagues Sir Wilirid's absence , 'A campaign in favor of a lower tariff," Mr. Tarte replied, 'was start- ed by Mr. Greenway, of Manitoba, in an interview which he gave," and 1 thought it proper to answer that in- terview hy saving that the government was not going to lower the tarifi,: or words to that effect. Then, vou will remember, came the Manufacturers' banquet at Halifax. I spoke at that banquet on the same lines as | took at the Manufacturers' banquet at Montreal, nearly a vear before: at the Toronto banquet. and at' other places. Then the Halifax Chronicle went for me: next 'Mr. Sifton gave-an inter- View an which he state that the North-West would raise + political re- beliion, if the tariff were raised; So on.

Fo the reporter's enquiry. "What do yop intend to-do for the future ?'* Mr. Tarte answered, without hesita- ton: "I'll try to make a decent liv- ine out ol newspaper work." "Do you admit that vou have niade a constitutional mistake 7° Mr. Tarte thought a moment, clanc- ed over the prime minister's letter and then replied with firmness : can't admit that I have said in the absence of the prime minister what [ have not said repeatedly in his pres- ence But | fully recogmze that." as he sSavs, a definite conclusion as to their ture policy. HI, under the circumstanc- es; I have gone beyond the limit al- lowed to a minister; if, in other words I have committed a constitutional Sin the loss of office is the constitutional submit cheerfully. And if I have unwittingly guilty of a little break on this 'point, why I shall have to crave 1 hat is all. The questions at issue are too important anvhow to lose much time discussing such fine points." "And what do vou conclude is the drift "of public opinion upon questions *°° "Well, Mr. Tarte answered, "the opinions of Hon. G. W. Ross have been expressed upon the necessity for the letter of Senator McMullen porting my views, and the interiew of Huch Guthge, M.P., all liberals, and all, I firmly believe, 'representing not only public' opinion in Ontario, but*throughout Canada.ln my humble mdgment, ninety per cent. of the peo- ple of the dominion are anxious to have a strong Canadian tarifi, a ta- | rifi that will give protection to the farmers, to the manufacturers, to the workinemen,- against the products vheap foreign labor."

Oct. 22.--In the House of to-day, Thomas Gibson Bowles, member for Linn, asked the government if a secret treaty existed between Britain and Germany, Vis count Cranborne, parliamentary secre- tary for foreign affairs, replied, say- ing : "If there is such a treaty I am in the nature of things, precluded from giving the terms." Mr. Bowles re marked, amid cheers, that the inevit- able inference was that there is such a treaty. London, Commons, NO HARD FEELINGS. For the Evil He Had Wrought in Families.

The appointment of James Macalis- ter Farrell, as police magistrate of Kingston, has been announced by the Ontario government. Though voung in years, Mr. Farrell is old in experience, and the citizens are fully confident that he will fill the important posi- tion, to which he has been called so that justice will be done, not merely in accordance with the letter of the law, but as varied conditions require Mr. Farrell is a native of Kingston, and has spent nearly his whole life in the Limestone city. He was educated The JAMES M. FARRELL, P.M. {in the public and old grammar schools and at Queen's University, from which he graduated as Bachelor of Arts in 1889. 'Tn 1893 he completed his course at Osgoode Hall, Toronto, and was called to the bar. That autumn he be- came associated in the law business with G. M. Macdonnell, K.C., and lat- er became a partner in the firm. Thus { for nine years he has been active in the legal world, and that experience eminently fits him to decide upon law questions which constantly arise in the police court. For the past four years, Mr. Far- rell has beef@a member of the city council, representing St. Lawrence Ward, and taking an active interest in all matters pertaining to the city's welfare. He was chairman of the fire and, light committee when the lichting arbitration case had to be prepared last vear. Farther, he was soon to be- come the liberal nominee for the may- ov's chair. In polities he took a decidedly ac tive interest for the past nine years: He has heen assistant secretary of the Kingston Reform association, a mem: ber of the executive, and at present is president of the Kingston Young Lib- erals' association. Tn Queen's Univer- sitv work he is also an active figure, being a member of_the University Council. During the session of 1897- 1898 he occupied the position of pre- sident of Queen's Alma Mater Socie- ty. the highest university office in the gift of students and graduates. In religion Mr. Farrell is a Presbyterian, being a trustee of Chalmers church. He is also a member of St. Andrew's Society, although his surname has an Irish favor.
