He warmly of ounces unrestricted reciprocity. In his of intr n it would mean com Merciol fight in the in for trouble from the East. Montriel feb. Drummond made the following letter Public Montreal feb. 21, 1891. Dekau my. Quite right in assuming that the statement in the letter enclosed in your note to Day is untrue. I am net in favor of unrestricted reciprocity or anything of the kind. I Emu Well enough acquainted with the Trade and industries of Canada to know that unrestricted reciprocity would bring prostration or ruin. I realize the tvs for saying this i May be accused of meddling with politics but with a this is a Busi question and not a political one and it to vitally affects the interests that have been entrusted to me that i feel justified in expressing my opinion plainly indeed since opposite views have been attributed to me i feel bound to do to. No one can follow the proceedings in Congress at Washington and the utterances of the. Leading newspapers of the United states without being a truck with the extraordinary jealousy that prevails there concerning jealousy growing out of the wonderful development of her Trade and manufactures within the past twelve years. It was this jealousy that prompted the anti Canadian features of the Mckinley Bill. It was represented Jinell believed a Washington that the Zandian formers largely depended upon the United states for n Market for Many of their chief products and that their loyalty could be touched through their pockets and that it was Only necessary to put on the Orews to bring about a political upheaval in Canada and such a reversal of the Trade policy of the country As would inevitably Lead to annexation. I have found it necessary to keep Well informed at to the Drift of matters at Washington because the interests of the Canadian Pacific railway have been threatened by All sorts of restrictive Ine autres and from my knowledge of the feeling there. I do not hesitate to say that if the result of the pending in Canada a what the authors of the Mckinley Bill expected it would be another turn of the screw will Fol Low. No Coni Forb is to be found in the recent disaster to the the United states. It Nob the anti can Dian features of the Mckinley Bill that caused this but tha heavily snare owed duties on Many articles the manufacture of which it wan intended to to Fosu. Thia Ino Reasa of duties came at a time of general depression among the Farmers and working classes find it was resented by them. Trade relations with Canada Hod nothing to do with it they were not thinking of us. Putting Aida All patriotic considerations and looking a the reciprocity from it strictly business standpoint what in the name of common sense has can. Ida to gain brio at this time thousands of farms in the new England states Ora abandoned the Farmers of the Middle Are All complaining Ard Thomao of some of the wee Tern abates Are suffering to such extent that organized Relief is the Esary. The manufacturers everywhere Are alarmed As to their future and most of them Are reducing their output work ing on Short Trua and seeking orders at absolute Cost so that they May keep their Best workmen together. We Are inn Italy better off in Canada. To have no abandoned farms and us distress anywhere and there is work for everybody who is willing to work. Our neighbor s big Mill Pond a very Low now but our smaller one is at least full enough to keep us going comfortably. His Pond requires twelve timed As Tiuch As ours to fill. It is not necessary that a Small boy should be a school Bov to know what the re sult would be if we were to Cut our dam. Our Pond would a once fall to the level of the other. Even if we were i Bering from hard times we could gain nothing by unrestricted reel pro City. No Man of sense would seek partner ship one worse off than himself because he happened to to Bard up. You can b Moke Ood egg out of two bad ones. The Canadian Pacific railway is far away tha largest buyer of manufactured articles in Canada yet Bays dry goods and groceries As Well As locomotives and cars it buys pins and Needles and millinery goods As Well As rails and splices and spikes it buys drugs and medicines and clothing As Well As bolts and wheels end axles it buys almost every conceivable thing and in is necessarily in close touch with the markets at Home and abroad it has build up or been instrumental in build ing up hundreds of industries in the country and it is the chief support of Many of of them and its with these markets and these industries justifies my belief that unrestricted reciprocity with the United states and a joint protective Tariff against the rest of the world would make now York Tiu chief distributing Point for the Dominion instead of Montreal and Toronto would localize the business of the ports of Montreal and Quebec and destroy All Hope of the Fumire of the ports of Halifax and so. Johns would ruin three fourths of oar manufacturers would fill our streets with the unemployed would make Eastern Canada the dumping ground for the Grain and flour of the Western states to the injury of our own Northwest and would make Canada generally the Slaughter Market for the manufacturers of the United states. All of which would be bad for the Canadian Pacific railway As Well As for the country at Large and this is my excuse for raising so much objection.
