It could not be influenced Iti the making of Ita Northwest Ratee by any consideration for conditions on the other Side of the Boundary. A this in changed by the preset ice of the Northern Aad no one can toll How soon other influences May operate to compel a regard for local circumstance a. Thus we see How a connection who the United states railway system instead of be Tifi a Benefit promises to became a curse to vie. It would be very unfair to blame our local government for this. Three years the people went mid for a Road to the bound Ivy we must have a Southern outlet at any coat. This was not the demand of a ii Cioa or a party it was the unanimous Witali of the entire people. But the government to Bluitte for i awning ii Pun the Northern pacitto and giving to it the exclusive privilege of Runnin into Maratoa. Any Jurson in the conversant with railway affairs at that tint Ketr that the relations Between Road and the c. A b. Were of such a character that genuine Competition was out of the they were both transcontinental roads and mutually interested in Indio Taining Friendly relations on the const that waa know to everybody. Hose Friendly relations were Nob to a disturbed for any tiling that was to be got out of he Manitoba Trade which to the Northern acidic at least would be a Mere Bagatelle us Der the Besto . Its system in his province is not much More than a twentieth in Point of and perhaps not More than a fiftieth in Point of truffle a comparison with the entire Road. For Small a matter As that it is not Italy it would jeopardize Ita larger Reid on the coast. It can be no excuse Tor the government to say now that it did not see this it was pointed out to it at a time and the Contention Over and Over attain made and emphasized that the two Roada from the very nature of things could not become competitors. But the advantages held out on the Day of that visit to the private car decided otherwise and the Northern Pacific it had to be and foe Northern Pacific t is. With Jay Gould s powerful hand to work the Springs we shall know in u few months whether consideration for Ite North West interests alone will prove Strong enough o enable the c. P.

Would be better off if there were no Northern Pacific on Thia Side of the bound try. As the remarked few pro it has merely attached Thia province to the Teni tory that co ifs under the influence of the great railway which Una followed to closely after or. Jay Gould s Oliver manipulation of tale new took Inar St a few weeks ago. Among Hia Ether Rohiel Eugenta at that to Aeo ured Lihe virtual control of the Northern Pacific through the Rockefeller and to Day or. Villard is Little More than or. Gould e very obedient servant. From the West have nod been satisfactory to Many of the railway Bosses for several years past and to make matters better it waa resolved by some of the larger cues to of control of those roads that would afford advantage and thue Force up the rates. Or. Gould was the Active spirit in Thia movement and we tree Itier every Day How successful he Bas been. Not Long ago a meeting of the presidents we held in new York at which. A plan of Campaign Vraa adopted. With gome special committee work intervening1, this was followed the other Day by another Genera meeting of presidents and managers at which All the roads in the West were represent it excepting the Chicago and Alton and tie Chi Cafro St. Paul and Kansas City which Are said not to be in sympathy it Ith the movement but from which any fatal Opp Sion a to expected. A new combination is Buin formed made up of the five traffic Wocia Tonii hitherto emitting a Bee rules and Regul Aliona Are to govern the Vori Oua manage ments. The first fruits of this step Are already been in the increase of Bot u Oas Boand and westbound freight rates. The Northern Pacific together with every other United states transcontinental Road a in the Corn Bino and Aaita branches extend into the Proviano of Manitoba we Are the 9 brought directly within the Circle of its influence. What thut Means was made evident the other Davy. In obedience to the instruction a of Trio Combine the Northern Pacific attempted x put Inlo effect a corresponding increase of rates from Allsop Inteia its Manitoba system. The Canadian Road was More susceptible Ito those local influences which would naturally oppose Swob a top and a it refused to respond to thai Call for a raise the attempt Baa for the present been abandoned. How soon it Natty be renewed no one can Tell and the next time it is quite possible that the prevailing Iola Entea May come fron an opposite Quarter. Herein lies the mischief to Manitoba. If the Northern Pacific no connection with our territory the c. P. R. Would be free to act Ita own pleasure. Now groping and soulless 33 that corporation is in pleasing Harmony with All other railway corporation it is much too sensible to kill the Goose that lays the Goldea eggs. We have set n How from the first year of its operation in the Northwest As its facilities increased Iti kept on lowering Rales until they became fairly reasonable from a purely railway standpoint Tzib c. P. In. Has Large interests in the North West. In the East it is reaching out in All directions and pushing its business with great Energy but the future of this Road after All is bound up in the Northwest and it knows it. It is therefore to its interest to encourage settlement. It has Millous of acres of land to sell. If the conditions of life in the Northwest Ore not made those acres cannot be old and the will lose in us Diton that traffic which their cultivation would Brief to it. If it were free of those entangling alliances Veoh Lihe presence of the Northern Paciuc in Manitoba forces upon it it would be at Liberty to Oan Sisr those interests without exr Anekua said for this bachelors . Lady Aberdeen s letter to or. Bead which was published in wednesday s free press is of considerable local interest. The purpose which forms the subject of in is most kindly meant Aud the association of ladies which was formed in Winnipeg after consultation with her to carry it out a entitled to like credit no one familiar with the conditions of country life in this new land required the graphic picture of the average Prairie Horne which her Ladyship presents in her letter to summon up the desolate near of the scene. Unless relieved in some such Way a she aug ests so As to Mako Home More there is danger indeed that it will develop a Liard self absorbed Money making Type life to the sacrifice of those More softening influences which elevate humanity. But the settler nine times out of ten will work ou1 Bia own aesthetic salvation. The imperious Demaud to get himself of his feet cannot be disregarded the 6rst year or two even to the neglect of pictures fun the Walls or Soice higher class Reading than Bis weekly paper. But this attended to As it will be in the Groat majority of cases within a very few years be is Freo to indulge Hia taste for those adornments of life about which lady Aberdeen and her friends Are so solicitous and which come within his Meaux. A Bare ungainly looking shanty or House on a naked Prairie unrelieved by a single to and with few evidences of inside it while depressing enough to one who Hab ambition for Home tiling better is not going to have the effect of knocking All taste for refinement out of the average settler. In itt flattering to lady Aberdeen s Sharp Ness of observation that she waa Able to up her hand on Thia Little dark spot of Prairie life during her Short visit to the country Anc no nicely to her credit As d sympathetic and warm hearted woman that she has eeb Abon to relieve it. Her friends in Winnipeg were not Isas ready with their generous but with singular and refreshing Candor the confessed to her that they did not known Bow beet to direct them. Between them they Bove hit upon a plan to show their Good will especially to those dreary Bachelor settler who Are living without even the companion of a Flower. A part of it in to Send them from time to time parcels of literature a pain for the Wall or even a package of seeds not so much As we understand it for the Good that these them Tulve will do although that will by no Means be inconsiderable but to surround them by proxy a it were with those Home Infin deuces from which they have become separated make them feel that a ministering an sympathizing Angel in the shape of woman is still hovering about them or a any rat within it a a thoughtful and Kindl service in intent Aud if Only for the to of it one that ought to be gratefully accepted. While there a no danger in oui opinion o the average settler falling from such aesthetic Grace a he May possess still there Are a year or two years or Mora of Juby was of probation which May Well be relieved by the kindly attentions of the association in whose behalf lady Aberdeen has been ask or. Stead to interest himself and Hia Anglia friends. A a result we expect soon to Hen that these Winnipeg ladies have received several Carea of periodicals and other accept Able trifles for distribution among settlers who cannot always get what their intellect Ual tastes crave for. But Are we in Winnipeg doing what we easily can to encourage this Friendly object v in Many a Home id this City Are dozens of the better class of magazines towed away in the Bottom of the Book care Jor future binding but which never will be bound As Long As the world lasts. The numbers Are already broken and scarcely a whole volume could be made out of the lot so careless arc we in keeping to that Resolution with which the first number was soberly Laid away. Why not Send in these to the association together with that old print that has been lying no Long waiting to be framed it is Nob intended in doing thie to be patronizing or charitable it would scarcely be Safe to avrame that tone with the class of people who Are scattered Over the North West. It is intended More at an act of Good Fellowship of neighbourliness of that genial Friendly helpfulness which is so characteristic and to delightful in new settlements. Id this spirit Leb the attentions of lady Aberdeen filid her Winnipeg friends be offered and received. No doubt that Tariff is responsible or much thib has happened but not till of it does it occur to the Tribune that id we the agitation against slavery and the War that allowed it that made the United states re publican and that now these being Lead issues the democrats Are again getting tha Ascendancy Independent y of thought of Tariff differences the democratic is the pop Ilar party n the United for Many years it suf ered under the odium of the rebellion and before that influence waa worn out the people found themselves in the toils of the protect Tio Uitti. One Lias passed away and the Bonds of the other Are being broken and the democratic party forging to the front where in will stay for Many a Long year. Thobe super Onyal who insist on occasions that suit that Trade should yield to anti Maent might profitably reflect for a Quarter of an hour or so on a remark made by or. Plimsoll at the cattle Trade inquiry in Montreal a few Days ago. It win assume do be vivid that the reason Canadian a ittle were admitted into England while other cattle were excluded Una because Canada was British Colony and the people weve Boyul. I Don t wish to be said or. Plit Natoll but i think it is simply tee Auer Canadian cattle Are or Are Suppo ired i be free from contagious disease nothing wot much sentiment about is re it is All hard dry business with Mother with a clean Bill of health and it is All the same whether you Are canadians or argentines and if we Prate loyalty Over our cattle Trade we merely get Knob bold for our Paino. The Chicago Tribune is in comprising in its enmity to the Mckinley Tariff and to it attributes every Republican reverse or mis hip of any kind Bhatla Haa occurred since its a the Rumor that Jay Gould has secured the control of the Santa be Rock la Laud Rood but expresses the belief that he is practically in control of a Large portion of the railway by attn of tie West. He Holda a Large Block of Northern of Union Pacific shares of Atcuson shares of Eich Ond terminal Aud is in absolute control of urious Pacific Missouri Pacific Wabash St. To Nib and Texas and Texas Pacific. He is also in close relations with a number of other roads and a virtually master of the situation.

A year ago the for Manitoba gave Promise of at least we got something like it is not with the prospects that the trouble is they Ara always first rate even to overflowing.

Worse than the North West Toronto Globe the tour of or. Laul Ier and or. Davis through the maritime Pype incas was a great Success.

Laurier. The reports show thab wherever or. Laurier and or. Davies went they kept the Trade ques Tion steadily to the front and the Mariner in which their speeches were received allowed that they had struck the right note. There is no place in the Dominion in which the people Are More mercilessly ground Between the two tariffs than in the maritime provinces. Because he does t know any better.
