Now, we talk in generaltios, but hon. gentleman on the other side will say: How can you benefit the Cana- dian farmer by increasing protecâ€" tion ? In answer, I would point out! that last year alone, according to the official returns of this govern- ment, we imported of farm products every dollar’s worth of which could have been produced by the farmers of Canada, upwards of $15,000,000 worth from the United States. If we figure that out'on the basis of $500,000 Canadian families in our agricultural population, you will find that it amounts to about $30 a head' for very farmer of the fDominâ€"l ion. Let _nie give these figures a little more in detail. At page 645 of the Returns of the Department of Trade and Commerce. we find that horses, horned cattle,- sheep, hogs and other animals to the value of S],- l24,874 worth were imported from the United States. At page 646, we find there were biscuits, and breadstufl’s to the value of $332 247. all of which came in competition with the food products raised by, ‘ our Canadian farmers. We findâ€" ; same pageâ€"that 87, 917,883 worth of ‘ barley, beans, Indian corn, oats, ' E. Buffalo. N,Y.. Oct. 20, '00.

A vomâ€" ‘mittee was appointed to see (‘01. 3Morgan, the collector at this port. ‘The committee was John Hughes. Hiram Waltz. Geo. Matheson, Burt Whaley and one or two others. We talked the matter over with him: got advice from him. We then wrote to the bureau, of animal in- dustry explaining the whole thing to them. showed them wefleerled the cattle. Mr. J. W. Wadsworth, member of Congress, took hold of the matter and we finally got the quardnt‘ine off. On the Hooks of the association is a. resolution thanking the committee for the good work done. JOHN HUGHES. And yet, sir, the minister of agri- culture had the nerve to stand up in this house and claim that he was the gentleman who had the quarantine removed. ‘ East Buffalo, N.Y., Oct.., 1900. Friend Brandonâ€"Yours at hand 2nd note all \ou say. The matter “as taken up at East Butfalo, and w interested Mr. J. W. Waldsworth, who started the. matter at Washing- ‘on.

When the q‘Uarantine was removed from Canadian cattle, a few years ago 'md our cattle were allowed to go into the l'nited States for the tim 'wing, I consulted this young gentle man on the matter, and he wrote tr chippors in Buffalo and New York. and received the following communi- ~atio-ns which he allowed me to. Have : ‘ 1 'rer or the workingman, ”but :what interest has the farmer in pro- tection 1", The farmers have two inâ€" terestl’,‘iu"" protectionâ€"they have the direct, interest of shutting out the surplus products of ‘~ the United Sta- ‘tes, and the indirect interest of building up manufacturing interests ‘and so increasing the population of towns which furnish a ham market for the products of the far . Let me point out briefly how the farmer is handicapped in the trade between Canada and the United States. \thn‘ a Canadian ships 8. horse into the United States he has to pay a duty of $20 or, if the animal is worth over 8150, he has to pay 25 per cent. of its value, whereas American horses are sent into Canada in droves reducing the price of our horses in the Northwest, and along the hord- er generally, and pay only 20 per cent. duty, whereas cattle going from Canada into the United States, if less than one year, pay $2. and if worth no more than 514. they pay $3.75, and if worth more. they pay 27-; per cent. And I remember that our genial friend, the minister of agriculture (Hon. Mr. Fisher), who has disappeared from his place, a few years ago, cooly stood up in the house and took credit to himsdf and the government for securing the reâ€", moval of the quarantine on cattle} going into the United States. I happen to come from a district iii which there are a number of cattle dealers.

Macdonald. We find, new that those hon. gentlemen are in power, that the men who have money to inmt, not only Canadian but men from foreign lands who do- sine to invest money in Canada, are not afraid to do so, because they know that the gentlemen on the trea- sdry Benches dare not tinker with the “'0‘ do you WV“ I! m} tarifi to any extent. and they know It “‘ m that the gentlemen on this side of ’ ‘ the house would not permit them to 33“” “EMT“ do so if they were inclined.

Why, Sir, you cannot get toâ€"day a hired man in the Dominion of Canaâ€" ‘da. to work for $9.80 and his board. and yet these are the wages paid in the outlying districts of the United States. But when you come near the manufacturing centres you find find that the wages of farm laborers increase, because those who employ them are able to pay better wages for the reason that they are getting better returns from the sale of their farm products. THE GOOD OLD POLICY In the ‘States and territories pay- ing farm wage rate higher than the average for the United States, the average rate of wag-es for farm la. hor by the month with hoard ap- pears to as $15. 85, and 12. 3 of the population ten years old and over “ere engaged in manufacturing, 7.8 in the trade and transportation, am". 14.6 in agriculture: while in thc States paying at a rate of farm wa- ges below the average for the United States. the average rate is shown as $9.80. and the persons engaged ir manufacturing are 5.4 per cent. of the population ten years of age and over, the persons enaged in trade and: transportation 4.2 per cent. and th: j persons engaged in agriculture 28.61 per cent.

Why ? Be- cause when our farmer ships his stuff to the I'nited States he is met by 9 prohibitive duty, but when the Unit- -d States farmer ships his stuff tr Canada he finds a very low tarifl wall to climb ovm'. When you figure In that Canada, in addition to th( £15,000.()00 worth of farm products I héve pointed out imports dutia-hl goods worth 367, 000,000, or “ithil a. few hundred dollars of it, and o by svvv-rvv ,, 7 ;Sum: total $15,000,013 of good pro- ?ductsâ€"not oranges, nor other odds 3and‘ ends that are generally ganged an agricultural products. but artic- les every dollar's worth 9! wnich could have been raise-l- simi'au' pro-- ducts are raisedâ€"by the farmers throughout the length and hicadth of Canada. Yet, in the face of such figures, the question is asked wtat benefit protection can be to the )‘ar- mcrs of this country? ,‘uxt, hon. gentlemen opposite any : We have. the great market of the 70,000,000 to the south of us, and 59- what an rd- vantage‘ that is to us.
