The gracious 8pebcii.v Hon. Or. Green Way took Tho floor of the order being called for the House to resume the adjourned debate of the motion for an he dream in reply to the speech from the throne. He intimated that he would not have made Tny extended remarks had it not been for Tho Hind near extended by the member Fri Morris who had been pleaded to enter into a sort of tirade of abuse of gentlemen who could not to present to defend themselves and to cast it Fleet ions upon the government in that connection. Complaint had been Road of the meagre Bill of fare but last year a very severe attack bad been made because the speech contained entirely too much. This showed that the government had undertaken to perfect As nearly As possible the matters of legislation that had claimed their attention to than there was perhaps Nob the same amount of work to do As usual. The govern ment had been charged with the Lennon Sivility of having put candidates in the Field in two electoral divisions. The Hon. Gentlemen know that such a charge did Nob he against the government. It was the work of one of the largest and most representative Liberal conventions Sbat he or. Green Way bad seen in any country which had induced the attorney general to accept the nomination in Selkirk. He knew the deep seated enmity of the Mem Ber for Morris against the attorney general but when the Hon. Member attacked a former member of the legislature or. To iliac Camp Bell in was difficult to reconcile this with his professions As a Liberal. Or. Greenway went on to speak of Tho great interest Mam felted in the province of Quebec As to the result of the elections in Manitoba. He fancied that it was difficult for liberals there to understand How a province interested As we were in the Issue put Ted plainly before the people should Bare decided As this province did while the provinces most interested in the old National policy voted against it. Some one or other must have had a Good Deal of Means for the purpose of import info voters from Washington territory Montana British Columbia and Tho Eastern provinces. The Trade question was the one submitted whether we should support the old policy which had been tried for thirteen years or the new policy which was believed to to in the interests of Canada. The two old pro Vinces of Canada decided by a majority in Envor of the new policy. Or. Greenway re viewed the history of the question in Mani Toba. He referred to a Resolution introduced by or. Nor Quay a government in 1884, when the question of the oppression of Tho High Tariff came under discussion for the appointment of a committee to inquire into the effect of the Tariff upon Tho people of Manitoba. Or. Larivire was chairman of that com Mitt its finding was that the Tariff bore very heavily noon the people of Manitoba from that time until the present representations bad continually been made for the purpose of trying to relieve the people of this Burden. The Quebec resolutions on contained in the journals of the House for 1888, affirmed that unrestricted reciprocity would be of advantage to All the provinces and it would not leaser the sentiment of loyalty but tending to make the people contented and Happy would tend to make them More attached to the institutions under which they live. No one wished to Exchange our institutions or government As we believe ours to be better More substantial and More in unison with responsible government. We Don t want to Exchange our institutions for institutions which allow Euloh anomalies As that of Congress pasting the Mckinley Bill and then after the elections had almost wiped out the party which introduced the measure the government going on and carrying the measure into or. No Quay having gone out of Power. Or. Grooney of the 7th of May presented the Quebec resolutions for ratification and menses. Brown Drewry in Riviera Leacock and Marion Weie the Only members who voted against concurrence All the rest in the House being in favor of unrestricted reciprocity. On the 10th March 1800, the Mem Bers became on the question and resolved to petition the Dominion government to take Steps to negotiate with the United states with the View of is riving at some arrangement by which Tubero to ult be unrestricted Trade Between the two countries. Hon. Gentlemen were Welcome to any Consolation they could take out of the Roturna for Marquette and Selkirk. The lists were the Moat defective Ever compiled in any country. In 1889 he or. Greenway had interested himself in the compilation of a list for Selkirk. He had gone to a great Deal of trouble and sent in upon forms to the revising barrister Over a thousand names. But having to con make a Good bargain did the Road afford in created facilities sufficient to cover the amount of the expenditure he defied any one to show where such mileage bad been introduced in any country or any such Bonna. For 2cg Milea bad been paid. The larger portion of this mileage was through a country that needed railway facilities. Would the for lome Cypress and Dufferin non Bay that the Road had been an advantage in bringing nearer to Farmers a Market for their Grain 2 in the older provinces the government Aid had vane from to a mile and this had been supplemented by municipal bonuses varying from to for local lines of railway. If a country which requires Congo Onienta Market. It is Manitoba. If we have thrown away half a million dollars to the Tuupo these people pipe to it a no Good it a gone it is sunk still members opposite Are com pluming that we Bave not thrown away More. They say the Souris Branch has up Yat been built yet according to their own version if it had Baen built would have been thrown away. If the Money wan thrown away in bringing the Northern Pacific into the country the sooner we Stop building the better. It a no fault of the government that the company has not carried out its bargain the government bad done everything in its Power to have it carried out. Or. Had Topay the promoters too much. Hon. A Entze Mau will continue to Harp upon something that never had existence except in his imagination and of some others. The moment that he can find there was a suggestion of improper expenditure of a single Dollar of Money this government is prepared to resign. Doca anyone believe that the gentleman whom de the bargain would pub a Milb in for the Public to gaze at if there waa any thing wrong Tho a mile and the con tract in which id wan ceased to exist nud gentlemen opposite were satisfied. Our control of Rood was taken away and now they charge that we remiss because the Road was mortgaged for a mile. Re Ferring in the speech or. 3ieen Way Spolja of his having put through the House year a Bill for Tho establishment of banners institutes. A Large number of inst tut03 Bave been established and he Hod been much pleased to see the very great interest manifested by Farmers. There was no country where such institutions were More required than in Manitoba. Because of different climatic conditions etc., Farmers required to get together to give one another their experience and acquaint them selves with the Best methods of he hoped All the electoral divisions would Avail themselves of the provisions of the immigration was after All the croat important question the House bad to consider. If the the country was to be a Success if its Trade was to assume such proportions that railways would compete for this must be when we have wore than 14.000 Farmers and a larger population than souls. Anything Tim could induce people to come and Settle Here ought to be done. It is to be re fretted that our Revenue is too Small for a to do what we might do. Speaking of he trip across the Ocean he said it had been for Tho purpose of satisfying himself whether any plan waa adopted there of making known the advantages of this country. He conceived the idea that there waa no organized Effort. He had recently bad a letter from an agent travelling in Home of the counties in England who found thab there was absolutely no information about this country. That had also bean his or. Gret Uway s experience. In the Rural districts people scarcely knew where Manitoba was what kind of a country it waa and what it was capable of producing. The first thing that claimed the attention of the government was to adopt the Best method of making known the advantages of Manitoba a Field for settlement that Coald Only be done by reaching Tho agricultural classes Thia work waa now nearly completed in on Tario. Last year 110 places had been visited with an exhibit of Manitoba products in on Tario and Quebec and tha Manitoba offices in Toronto were vim Ted by thousands of poo Plo. The work could Nob be carried on in the same Way in England As the people in Tho Rural districts there do not travel to the same extent As the people Here and would Nob find their Way to a Central office. Some other Way would have to be adopted. If the exhibitions and Sale fairs could be visited and the products of the soil of Manitoba shown the people would be convinced that we have a Good country. Or. Martin Rose to Correct a misunderstanding. The Premier was mistaken when he said that the member from Morris had attacked or. Campbell. He Martin had never said a word Agai Nab or. Campbell. He bad said that that gentleman was worthy of a better Fate and he had attributed his defeat to the local government. The motion Wae then unanimously Carri Erand a commit teen woo appointed to prepare the Addrena. Hon. Or. Smart moved seconded by Hon. Or. Mclean that a ppe cml committee be appointed to enquire into Aud re port to this House Home Means of Leavening the Burden imposed upon oho municipalities forming the Western judicial District under the provide cons of chapter 46, 47 Victoria being an act respecting the Brandon court House and jail and that said committee consist of Hon. Or. Mclean and Mears. Dickson Mickle Fisher Harrower Campbell Graham Gillies Young Hettle Sifton and the mover and that said com Mittee by. Empowered to Send for persons and papers. Tue mover referred to the committee appointed lab sea Sion a ayin that it bad made a report Only a for Dynya before the House prorogued. The government and come to the conclusion that in would be Neces sary in consequence of the matter being considered a one of contract to Deal with it by negotiating wit i the City of Brandou the other party to the contract before bring in a Bill to relieve the municipalities of this Large Burden. Or. Fisher said he waa a Little disappointed that the Gavm Ament was not prepared with Rome scheme. The committee of last Besoiu Hod prepared a report of fifteen clauses going into the history of the whole matter Aud show ing what the grievance a were Aud had urged the government to bring Down a Schemo of Relief cobia be Flagon. He did not Rise to find fault with the government because it we impossible for him to know the reasons which prevented them from doing to. He hoped the committee would a rivet Early and late if Nomen by and that ther matter would be non. Or. Amart a Bili to registration of deed and other institutions. Hon. Or. Bill to Amend Cap 38, 53 Victoria being an act respecting Public schools. Or. Gillies inquired whether any Steps been taken to revise the Lints for the vacant constituencies also if the writs had been i mud. To said it was Nob fair that those should to ignored altogether. Or. Greenway said to would advise the Hon. Gentleman when Uny were taken towards revising Lints. Or. Martin said to would like to know whether the constituencies were Tab repro rented this session. Or. Greenway answered thai Liat would depend upon Tho length of the session. Notices. Or. Pren Dorgas gave notice of a motion on tuesday for a return showing the names and figr a of nil inmates in the Manitoba Reform tory for boys from the Date of the opening thereof to the 1st Day of March 1891. Or. Campbell gave notice of a motion for a return of correspondence not already brought Down with the n. P m. K. Co., in reference to Tho Extension of Tho said company s roads. The House then adjourned until 3 p. M. To Day. M swat s Experiment.

Mcowat thu proceeded with great deliberation to open Tho package. He took off the bring rolled it up into n Little Noil and rave it to mrs. Mcowat.

You May need it Homo she bad a Bagful of similar coils Laid away soot there tangled into an inextricable mass and running Over at Tho top and had no under the Lii Midg Sun for an other Inch of string but she promised to take care of this particular wad. Mean while or. Mcowat was slowly unrolling Tho bundle. He. Brought to View at last a beef 3 Tonguc. There it is he exclaimed. I Don t see anything remarkable about it Billiger except that it in t that s just Tho Point to retorted.

I m going to smoke my own beef tongues but How arc you going to do it we Haven t any amok just you wait n minute and you la see. Bring to an Iron mrs. Mcowat hunted up the desired implement and brought it to him. Now he thrust the poker about half its length through Tho Slit in Tho smaller end of the Tongue. He preceded her up stairs opened a Back window stepped out on the Kitchen roof and made his Way up by laborious climb ing to the comb and thence along to the Chimney at Tho farther end. Lifting him self carefully up he placed Tho poker across the top of Tho Chimney Tho beef Tongue dancing Down ins do. That s the scheme be said clambering Back to the window. It la smoke the thing All right and save just forty cents. Catch to buying smoked tongues any but there s no smoke coming up that Chimney said his wife. We Burn hard Coal you ill fix that. Well throw in a slab occasionally and if thut does t make smoke enough Well Burn a Little soft Coal. They re both cheaper than hard they went Down stairs and for Tho next Twenty four hours or longer in compliance with instructions from big Liger mrs. Mcowat and the Domestic Ophelia plied Tho Kitchen Range liberally with slabs of Wood and chunks of soft Coal. On the morning of Tho second Day after or.
