What.hoasked. wastbe sites at this moment 7 The President of the United States was authorised to close American ports to our ships. nay more, to prevent the importation into the coming from United States of any i‘anada. When weconfl that the exports from Canada last year exceeded forty mil- lions of dollars it was easy to understand the magnitude of the evil which would he done to Canada if this policy were enforced. Here were two nations. both the offspring of the same Motherland. side by side. with every inducement to intimacy and friend ship, on the verge of commercial war. It was well known that no less an authority than Sir Charles Tuppor stated that the line which separated commercial war from actual war was very thin. Even if he did not go as for as Sir Charles Tuppen. even if nothing more than commercial war was threatened. the situation was a moot deplorable one. For the present situation the Government of Canada was largely responsible. He would not say completely responsible. Justice and fair- ness compelled him to add that in many things the Government of the United States were as blameablc as that of Canada. Were he an American on the door of the Senate. he would protest against the course they had taken, against their lack of fairness and generosit ; but he was a Canadian. and it was his uty to point out the way in which the Govern- ment of Canada had gone wrong. The Opposition still believed that the twelve years of reciprocity had been a golden era for Canada. It wasa matter of history that that treaty was abrorsted because the Government end the people of Canada. in common with a large part of the civilized world. in the great national struggle of the United States had not sympathizad with the side on which there was right and justice. Times had changed since then. however. The England of to-day was no longer the England of 1861. It was largely. ifnot altogether. a democratic country. The England of 18“ won the some as the England of 1775. which resisted the effort of the United States for independ- ence. lie was at a loss to understand why Canada. which was a purely democra- tic country. did not throw her sympathy with the North and against slavery in the great struggle of the American war. Had we done so. we would have had their friendship in return. but one of their first acts after the close of the war was to cutoff - rcci rocal trade with the United States. on don t in consequence of the unfriendly at- titnde our Government and people assumed towards them at that time. That. he believed, was the first mistake our Gov- ernment committed in their treatment of our neighbors. In 1835 we refused to ship American fish in bond. We seized their schooners for alleged and trivial violations of the construction we put upon the con- vention of 1818-4. construction so narrow. and in some cases so inhuman. as to put schooners beck to can without giving them the privi‘iplze of buying food or other neoco- saries. voy expected by this oourseto bring down the Americans, but instead we were menaoed by the Retaliation Bill of 1887. At this 'uncturs it was well that there was in i c United States a true Canadian. whose name was received with jccro when mentioned in the House last year. who stepped to the front and did what should have been done by the Canadian Gov- , erumout long before. He constituted him- self an ambassador to Secretary Bayard, and had an interview with him. which ultimately led to a conference between that official and Sir Charles Topper. The name of that Canadian was Erastus Wiman. and on the admission of Sir Charles Topper himself in the House. be it was who took the first step towards the conference. Commissioners were subsequently up. inted and they met at Washington. and tr Charles Tupper proposed to settle the question by a treaty giving freer intercourse between the two countries. It was rejected because. as he himself stated. of the irritn- . tlen existing on account of the treatment American doberman had received from the Canadian authorities. He (Ir. Laurier) would or the Government to reverse that policy of arahneso. and endeavor. not by acts of violence. but by peaceful means. to late with our ‘ hero. He was uto aware thatfordo ngtosoy theft in l is international question our Government were sometimes wrong and mother notion right he would bring down the whole Cou- ssrvotive on his head; but even as the Brit Ministry of 1775 lived to repeat, as Lord Cbatham foretold that the would. their action with Morocco to t c then American Colonies. so would the t Government of this country see the oily of their in this great international section. c closed by moving the fol. fearing amendment: Bessie that in view of the rejection by the Ionahof t United of the Washington of in. and the d ' we fill? l Wtupou ,, sniuuwnunnk law nous-winqu . othero.wboseintsomte what'lheyfelllgobswrc forencs with their trade. no for the majority of the they were anxious and wi ing. anxious. to enter into the most free” - tions with the United States as far as the interests of Canada would allow. The hon. gentleman know perfectly well that the resolution be pro would meet with the indignant iticn not on] of the House. but of the whole people of Canada. Mr. lfillo said that Sir John Macde 'aod contradicted his former Finance Minister. Last moles Sir Charles Tup- per declared that the chief reason the reciprocity treat was abrogated was be- couoe of Can an sympathy with the South in their national at e. He could not remember the Premier having been compared to Judas. and attributed that impression rather to a vivid imagination than to a retentive memory. Ever clause of the treat of 1871 to which the iberals took except on. they still believed were not in the interest of the country. Mr. Weldon (Albert) introduced a Bill to extend the visions of the Extradition Act. He ex sined that the Bill gropceed to legislate n the only direction regard to extradition matters in which we can legielote outside of a treat arrangement. homely. in the direction of ri out from amongst us those criminals who ave fled from a foreign country to seek an asylum with no. Whatever view we might take of the criminal law. we would all admit that the aim of swinging justice was oborn of its strength when t s criminal had crossed the boundary line into another country. where he could not be prosecuted. Under i, the existing treaty with the United States, the Asbburton Treaty of 1362. were only live sxtroditable crimsn. namely. murder. arson. assault with intent, piracy. and the commercial crimb of forge The great increase in the commercia inter- course cf the two countries since the from. ing of that Act had given rise to a greatly increased variety in commercial crimes. and there was a general desire that the scope of the Ashbnrtou Treaty in this re» spect should be greatly enlarged. The Bill rovides that in the event of the demand y States with which Great Britain has no extradition treaty. or where the treat . if one exists, is inadequate, the Can ion Government may surrender the criminals who are enjoying an asylum here from the commission of certain flagrant crimes. A clause provided that the ex use should be borne by the State which me. the demand. and the list of offences made oxtraditable included all the graver crimes. The Bill did not in any way impair or invade the right of asylum to all political oflendors. which was secured to them by law in all parts of the British dominicns. The Bill pro end to have a retroactive eflect as re- gar s criminals now enjoying asylum in Canada. The Bill was read a first time. To incorporate the Mooeejaw.

The baron declared : Remove every bor- rier. admit your Jewish compatriots to every right and advants e of social life. and there will be more 0 snore for effect- ing the fusion which you appear desirous of witnessing. This is what happens in France and England. and indeed. wherever Jews enjoy the same rights as their fellow‘ citizens. Their intimate relations are on the increase. even mixed marriages are not rare in any class of society. and assimila- lion is progressively brought about by the or or of things. “ Such you may declare with every as- suronce. on the ideas expressed by Baron do Hirsch in the course of the conversation reported by the New York llmild.” I Another Ontario H‘rolue.
