He called attention to the fact that forty years ago there 94,000 people on" the is‘and. In 1881 there were 108.000,. and in 1891 109.- 000. Then the population commenced to decline, and in ten years it had dropped to 103,000, and 'the last cen- sus shoWed that the population was only 93,000. The industries of the island also had larg‘ely disappeared. and it was proposed, in order to re- generate them, to apply to the island the same tariff system as was applied to the Domoinion'as a whole, in order to protect the manufactories on the island. It was proposed 9160' to have instead of a Minister of"Politics, a Minister of Industries. The fact that both political parties were so strong. or so weak, also had much to do with the lack of development. Forty years ago the island c‘ontafnfid more people; than it did to day, s'ald Dr. Macphail, and there must be some reason for it in a province which was one of the best in the world, so far as agricul- ture was concerned; In connections with transportation facilities, the speaker said it was pos- sible to send goods from Montreal to Sydney, Cape Breton, the market for Prince Edward Island, for less than half what it cost to send goofs fro.n any point on the island to‘ Sydney. 0f the 72,000 peoplewho had left the is land in the last forty years, 88 per cent. had gone to the Unâ€"l'ed States, and only 12 per cent. to the other provinces in the Dominion. How to get those back was the problem whish was confronting the island, and it was thought that the best system Wonk} lbe to apply to the island the same tarifl system as was applied to the’ Dominion as a Whole, on the gmund that what was good for the whole was good for the part. In the island great quantifies of tobacco could be grown, and it was confidently hoped that in lieu years no more tobacco would be‘ ; imported. c; I . , . vast-«1:. ~le CIGAREI CAR 3 '7 DISEASE CARRIERS?"
