Conf. Denial Lynn mass. Your letter will be opened read and answered a and held in strict to Meece views new Tariff and War tax Are still being freely expressed in Winnipeg and Here Are some of the latest r. Mckenzie Secretary of the Mani Toba Grain growers association it is a manufacturers Tariff. The three provincial Grain growers associations have unanimously passed Strong resolutions urging the Dominion government to adopt free Trade Between Canada and the Mother land and substitute a taxation on land values to provide the deficiency in the Revenue. The answer of the government to the request of the organized Farmers is an increase of Al per cent on the imports from great Britain. The manufacturers for some years have been demand ing a preferential Tariff within the Empire which would give adequate Protection to Canadian manufacturers. The budget speech gives them the first instalment of that preferential Tariff by increasing the general Tariff by per cent As compared to 5 per cent Oil the imports from Britain. Especially obnoxious at the present time is the duty of 7h per cent on Corn in of the urgent demand on Farmers to in crease farm Stock by the government and All Public men and the abnormal shortage of feed that now obtains More especially in Western Canada. At present prices of Corn it Means a tax of from s50 to per car. Our railway companies have Given Low transportation on Corn in order to help the farm ers out. Our government instead of doing the same thing increases their Burden. What Are Farmers going to do about fabrics and textiles Here is the opinion of u con Mission agent who deals in fabrics and Tex tiles the Advance on wools and woollens in Britain and also where is very heavy since the War and oven previous to that. Now with the 5 Pel cent added to preferential rate the Cost of living Here in necessities of this kind Wool Lens in our cold climate will be serious for the common people. Such things As by oakets even with larger proportion of Cotton and Little of Wool pay from Britain so per cent and with the 5 per cent now added 35 per cent. Such a tax is not right. It should have been put on luxuries More and less 011 Staple goods from Britain. Plain White Cottons used in every household paid if bought in the United states 25 per cent but will now be dutiable at 32% per cent. On such essentials the old duty of 25 per cent varas ample and even under present War Cir Custance should not have been in creased. The increases in these and others will Hurt the West. There Are others i could mention too that ought not to be imposed the goods Are needful in every Day life the urges stopping work on the . Terminal Rev. John Davidson of Thurso que., have had considerable Trou ble with my 1 Throat caused by Public speaking in heated buildings and exposure to Damp and Chilly atmosphere.

Morning citizens editorially suggests that in View of the present economic conditions the construction the Hudson Bay railway should be deferred for the present. Referring to the vote of five and a half million for the terminals Etc., in the estimates for the project the citizen says with such a critical time financially before the people of the Dominion for the next few years it Wouita surely be the height of Wisdom to delve deeply into the consideration of Tho Hudson Bay project before proceeding further with it. It is not too late to save possibly two thirds of the total Cost at this late hour. The Money voted so far for the port Nelson terminals May have gone very largely into preliminary Purchase of tools material equipment and labor before starting on the main expenditure Over Tho fifteen million port. The railway similarly might be Stop Ped or at least suspended until More prosperous times. Wants wide ave nue to Crystal Springs whether the City should obtain a 991 foot right of Way for its pipe line to wards Crystal Springs or should merely get title to the 33 feet which would be sufficient for its actual requirements is a question which has frequently been before the Board of control. Con i troller midwinter has an Eye to the future developments and requirements of the City. He does. Not believe that it will Ever be required for the purpose of bringing water into the City from that direction but thinks that the wide strip should be secured As a future Street leading directly to the City from the territory now becoming Well settled to the Northwest. A decision must soon be arrived at but the controller from Elmwood staved it off for another Day he says that through Kildonan if the City will pay for the 33-foot strip it needs the municipality will look after the other 66-foot strip.
