"The Daily British Whig YEAR 78 -NO. 50 » SIFIGN KICKS Against the Reciprocity Agreement. HE DENOUNCED IT "IN A STRONG SPEECH IN COM. MONS, He Said if He Did Not Oppose It, His Self-Respect Would be Fn dangered--More Information Re. quired. Bpecial to the Whi i Ottawa, March 1.-In the House of Commons, yesterday afternoon, Hon. Clifford Sifton, ex-minister of the libe ral government, and chairman of the conservation commission, kicked over the traces on reciprocity. In © cold- blooded fashion, Mr. Sifton denounced reciprocity in no undiluted language. It wgs a great, imporianl question, and one not to be dealt with in a trifling or foolish manner. He was out and out opposed to the ponding pact between Canada and the United States and he said that his opinion was not spasmodic or one that had been sud- denly formed. It was a big Guestion, _ and one that warranted any man, if he be a true Canadian, in taking o firm stand. "I am opposed to it, because should I not, my self-respect would be " en dangered."' Mr. Sifton severely criticized ministers of finance and customs, not giving to the house and the ple more detailed information on the matter. If they have the information they certainly did not bring it down, not did they argue on the merits of the question. He declared that reci procity with Uncle Sam had not been a question submitted to the people during the past three general elec tiohs, in 1900, 1904, 190K, and ther: was no constitutional warrant to d turb our present fiscal policy without consulting the people. "It is a constitutional question and I do not believe that anytihiog has so shocRed the people of Canada in her whole history as this." (Conservative cheers.) "To think," he continued, "that four or five men should tak © unto themselves the power to reverse the traditional policy of Canada, which has worked out so profitably "eve: since 1897, would undoubtedly be a great mistake." "It would hardly be advisable to increase the British preference at the present time," said Mr. Sifton. He went over the list of articles that the agreement proposed to put on the free list and almost everyone he pointed out where there would be a great loss to Canada. To stop sending agricultural products to Great Britain and send them to the United States, who only a few years ago, bravdished a club over our heads, was indeed a serious matter. How long would this trade agreement last with the United States ? he asked. "I do not know, the government does not know, nobody knows." "We are putting our heads noose," Mr. Sifton shouted, loud conservative cheers. "Our farm products in every pro: vince will be dominated by those of the 'United States, and the favored na- tion treaties, and the whole tendency is to induce Canadian farmers to ship their products to the United States, yet this government, on the other hand, has been spending millions of dollars to establish extensive farming throughout the dominion. How ri diculous and absurd. This pact will surely mean dislocation. and disturb ance of business all over Canada and a great loss to many of the large in dustries." a i He ventured to ay that the ifg packing interests of Canada would be wiped out. "There is no more chance for them to stand up against the big United States trasts than 1 have for my life if this building should fall upon me." With regard to any change on ow pulp and paper, Canada should sit down and wait. The provincial regu lations. on these articles are good and if the government allows this agreement to go through, the United States government will have the pow- er to put an abrogation on our pro vineial regulations, He declared that the price of wheat wold be lowered itstend of increased, and it would give United States con trol of our wheat market, making the t North-West the back door of Chicago. It places the products' of the Capadian on a free trade basis and in time it will compel Canada to sub mit to cominercial union with Uncle Sam. (Conservative cheers.) "I cannot conceive of what the gev- ernment was thinking when they even- considered such a proposition. If ever ; & monumental error and i ong, it was then," he said. "The government has been flaunt i before the people the binding of all the provinces together more close ly. This will not bind them, but separate them. British Columbia will be annexed in trade to Oregon and Califorda; North-West states immediately south of them; On tario and Quebeo to Néw York state, and the maritime provinces to the 'New England states.

He said that the assistance given by British ambassa- dors to the Canadian ministers in re cent years had been both useful and acceptable. In the reciprocity pro goedings at Washington the action ol Mr. Bryce had been, he believed, bene ficial both to Canada and the United States because in communicating with the Canadian representatives and the American officials, he had kept British interests in view.

Of Government From Bars and Race Tracks. LEGISLATION CALLS FOR TURNING OVER PART OF RECEIPTS. Sum of $100,000 Will be Added to Ontario's Revenue From Bars-- Railways, Express Companies and Race Tracks Will Pay More. Toronte, March 1.--Two of the most important measures the members of the legislature have had before them in several years were introduced, yes- terday afternoon. Both are revenue producing bills and both will prob- ably meet with a storm of opposition when their contents are understood and their probable effect realized. The recent work that license inspec: tors throughout the province carried on in securing returns of har earnings was explained when Hon, "W. J. Hanna, provincial secretary, briefly outlined the government bill, by which the provinge will receive five per cent. on all bay sales over forty dollars a day. The provincial secretary admit- ted that the bill was a departure from the principle hitherto followed, but was justified in view of the increased value of licenses as the result of the spread of the dry districts. Hon. Mr. Hanna announced that the government had enlarged the scope of the veto with respect to li: censes, making it apply all over the province. He introduced a bill de- signed to prevent druggists from abus- ing their privileges, by providing that a chemist's certificate Don void upon a second conviction for breach of the license act. The other bill was introduced by Hon. Mr. Matheson, Its principal provision calls for the imposing of a tax of two cents on every $100 or fraction thereof of the par value of every transfer of stock, bonds, or de benture stock. The tax will be a hard blow to small Jot speculation in cheap mining issues. The other taxes are an increase in the mileagé tax on double-tracking of large railway sys- tems, a more than doubling of the mileage tax on express companies and Fa tax on all race tracks. : The new revenue act is expected to add to the provincial treasury con- siderably over one hundred thousand dollars. The added revenue from the doubled tax on railway mileage, which applies only to double-tracking, is estimated at $22,000, The express companies will be called upon to pay $500 instead of $200 for every mile over which they operate, an gre- gate increase of some 340,000, while the new tax upon race tracks of #200 a day for the seven-day meets and smaller taxes on the smaller meets will mean an addition of $15,000. The provincial treasurer is not prepared to estimate the - return from stock transfers owing to the difficulty iu | gathering figures of stock sales, but it mw expected to almost the largest revenue pre lace increase, ROBBED AND MURDERED Put in House, Which Was Set Afirve.

Philadelphia, Pa., March 1.--Because {her eyes are admittedly more beauti- Jul thin any eyes Uonshohocken has eter seen and because she could not make them behave, a magisterial edict enforced the banishment from that Philadelphia suburb of the presence of Miss Marie Delmores. Miss Delmgores is about twenty-one years old, and for a couple of years has been ravaging the hearts of the marrisgeable young men, One of her admirers was Michael Brunst, who de- clares that giter a tentative agreement to wed had been remched he handed the girl his savings of $300 to-buy a trousseau. Her afiection for Brunst cooled. The magistrate decided that if Miss Delmores didn't want the case re- turped . to the Montgomery county courts for 'trial she must return to Brunst all that remained of the $300 and agree to leave Conshohocken at once, PISGRACE TO THE NATION, Ministers Protest Against Mormon Pictures on Plate Battleship. New York, March 1.---The Presbyter- jan Ministers' Association, of New York and vicinity adopted resolutions agamst the proposed presentation of a silver service to the UU. 8: hattleshin Utah as the gift of the state of Utah, "This service," continues the resolu. tion, "bearing the portrait of Brigham Young and a picture of the Mormon Temple at Salt Lake City, will dis. credit the stato making the gift, and be a disgracé tu the nation ff it i accepted. The insolence of this pro posal calls for immediate and empha- tic resentment. The insignia of any church has no place on the service of a United States ship, and the insignia of the Mormon church so placed is an insult to the Christian people of the whole country."
