Call at our Warerooms-----one door South of the Post Office. mm I As We promised last week we. re. I p oduce a portion of the speech of the Imember for South Grev on the North Atlantic Tracing Co. Mr. Miller is a .clear thinker and he throws light on ;any subject he handles, without being; "?frensive and he always is acknow- Ialged to be tair. l Alter commenting severely on Mr. [ Fowler, for making an “unbecoming 1 coarse and brutal attack on the Prime 1 Minister, tt he referred to Mr. Foster 1as having made a speech which in- jladed b. everything of suspicion, of linuendo. ot insinuation that could be idragged into the debate. "Bind that speech if you will, a yellow icarer will be appropriate, place it in (your library. Will you piace it ‘umong your books of history, biog- raphy and natural philosophv. or lpolitical economy ? No sir, you will l place it with the iletion, beside your iiiullivers Travels, Arabian Nights, 5 Robinson Crustoe. and The House tlwt iplaek Built. Our hm. friends state in reference to the eontraet--I tray) ’they state and they claim bat I can- l inot say they believe-first, that the‘ 5 contract is a secret contract, not prud- gently bat miseheyiot1sly secret ; sec- iond, that the contract is a bad con- itruct made with bad intent and bad {result ; third that it was an extrava- lgant contract: fourth. that it was s lcontract made between or among lthree persons whom the hon. member [tor North Toronto has chosen to des- lignate as Siftonians; dishonestly invade for theirown protits; fifth, that ‘it was a bargain tor the promotion of “work illegally carried on in the coun- tries in which it was carried on, and sixth, that it was a contract that for these reasons ought to cancelled. We cannot support them in their amendment because we believe and we honestly. conscientiously and em- phatically believe that they are wrong in every charge. " Mr. Miller's Speech. m Then the qmrstiou it asked '. Why after all is there need for so great w- crecy ? I will admit that When this matter was first b ii light before the House it seemed rather Hirange to .ne thal there should be such secrecy. I will admit that it did occur to me to ask mviiielf what good "axon there could be that the government shou.d wish so carefully to conceal the munch of the persons who are behind the North At. lantic Trading Company. lint. I was willing to wait to hear the evidence, to know the tncts. and to listen to reason: and that appears to me to be the ditier- enco betwouu my attitude in the matter and the attitude of our friends. of the opposition. They appeared to have jumped very hastily to the conelmion that nil this secrecy could have been for no other reamn than to shield sud to hide the COUlIQ‘ClIOH With this Colu- piinv of Mex-rs Sitton. Preston and Smart. I believe that the evidznce " ready before the House mint have con. vineed ouririenile that they are in er- ror. and yet they have foolishly, I think determined that they will brazen it out auc are not willing to admit their mis- take. I say. Sir. that if the Hon. Mr Sil'ton while he WAS Minister of the In. terior or While he has been a member of the Canadian House at Commons; if Mr Preston while he wesinepucior of immigration in the employ of this any. l eminent; it Mr Smart while Deputy Minister of the Iutetaor, or any of these gentlemen had any connection what.

ButI ask where is there one jot or title ofevidence to connect these men or any one of them With the North Atlantic Trading Company t Mr Smart has been examined and he is the only wit. ness that has been examined who has any knowledge of the facts and I wish to place upon record some of the evi. deuce of Mr Smelt. Mr Smart. the ex- deputy Minister ofthe Interior. on being 1te,t"t, by the Hon. membu for ecqnee Cartier (Mr Monk) before the Agriculture Committee on the 11th of April,geye the following information-. where I reter to the evidence of Mr Smarthill mention the dates became I rush the House end the people to understand that on the morning of the 18th of April as Mr Smut was about to be examined it wee euggeuted by the Hon member (Mr Monk) that he should be Inorn, end noting upon that sugges- tion the oath was administered to Mr Smut end ell the evidence he gave upon the 18th at April or upon my date eubuqnent to that wee given under oath.

" PTPtr. ee 99.10::- at The question then is asked by our friends on the opposite side: It this contract was a good one why won it cancelled; Iliave explained. and the contract showsit, that it was the desire I orthe government that the work should he more vigorously carried on and more energetically prosecuted in the sections of Europe from which the more desir- able immigrants may be obtained, and which we the more northeily potions oi the Europenn continent. It appears (and the minister states it and the {acts l support it) that the cotnpnny semis to ‘ have pen working most energeticallv. l nut in the sections from which the tnunt desirable cmigrentu may he onIained bat in [he sections from which compar- atively it" desirable immigrante come --tueeo countries being worn easily worked were worked to the full extent ot the five thousand limit while the more desirable tectione Were not so Well attended to but rather neglectrd. Because of this the minister him quite‘ properly cancelled the contract. I point out that when the contract was made ountninlng a protision for cancel- lation. it was always Intended that when in the opinion of the minister the contract was not being lived up to it should and would be cancelled. It eeenia to me to be a. strange thing that our Conservative friends jump to the conclusion that it the government do what they have been urging the govern- ment to (in that Elli! is an evidence of the guilt of the government. The Croy. ernment and the Minister of the In. terior acting for the government arrived I at the conclmion that the proper thing to Jo would be to cancel tho contract. but the Minieter of the Interior arrinnl I at tlmt eoueluciou with a knowledge ot) the (nets. and by a process of reasoning _ ttltoeotberddrerent from the museum; by which the Oppoeition arrived at a Ito-c" ion to advise that the connect should be cancelled. I would point out that what may be a somewhat strange teometdenee in the minds of our friends the enemy, that the government have concluded to do-although as I have said tluw have concluded to d) it by reasoning from an entirely different standpoitst--wloat they have urged them to do; is merely evideuee that f the opposition were more iroquently right then such a cmncidenca would more frequently occur. urged that this Company ll on un- known Cumin” :that they proboh- ly have sum 1 capitol. and it any be asked : What security has the gov- i ernment thal the company will carry yontits contract? In reply, I point to the fact that the government ob- |tained and still hold $5,000 ot the company‘s money " security that the company will carrv out and h1Itil their covenants contained in the agreement.

Guess he is a tnfle afraid of getting caught in the switch between the 't taxati< n tt and the " baron 's cat. tt Rev Mr Mustard occupied the pul- pit in Knox church on Sunday and the Sunday previous, and by his ex- cellent discourses we fancy he has greatly reduced the chances of the other fellows.
