While the terms employed by tho ipeukur were ut all tiniea moderate, the general tenor of tbe speech waa ol such a masterful ebuructcr that the strength of the whole wus but enhanced by the utter ubsence of extra- vagtint lungitiige. The alieukcr left no uncertainty in the miuda of his Im.ii en. with reference to tho viewpoint from which he auiiroaclied tho subject in blind. He stated in line i|itn mill language t In.t he viewed with suspicion uuy upproach from tbe United eitutes looking to closer commercial illation! with Canada. Having beon lor many years u member ol the Dominion House ol Commons, for a considerable portion of which he Wai iu churgo of u portfolio in the government, Kir Chariot Hibbert Tup- pat bad al command an inlimato knowl..In.' of the dotaila of the inner relationships between tbe two countries for an extended period so that from personal knowledge as well as from other sources he submitted to bil bearers u muss of mulcriu! carefully mi uu;',-I. logically connected und built up by u master bund into what every thinker must recognize ai a strong und formidable cats agaiuat the ratification of tlie reciprocity pact. Eliminating In/in his arguuieui thu consideration of iliu probuble effect of the proposed agreement upon the various Commercial interests involved, bu curried his In,mi • wilh him In thu colisiderul ion of original ittlliieiices and im,.1.oii.t.i..t cutises, iii order to show thut such uu " ■ in nt is incompatible from the Canadian viewpoint, with sound principles of statesmanship. The' ipeecb was intensely Canadian and thoroughly imperialist ie Irom Ihe introduction to the splendid peroration. The intense interest wilh which Kir Churls! Hibbert Tupper wua followed throughout liy (he large audience clearly allowed that bia heareri wero conicioiii that they were listen ing lo oue ol ' uinulaV foremost lona ua well ua to on. ol her clearest, itrongeil, laneit tl,inkers upon a question ol the greatest moment lo the Dominion. Tbs ipeech never lor a moment developed even a euggestiun of the grandiloquent, but il wai eloquent iu the Irueit aud molt forceful sens, inasmuch ai it unmiitukeulily carried conviction to Jiii bearers, confirming thote who were already in harmony with the speaker's poiition and carrying with him to hii own conclusions many whose opinion! were ai yet in i more or less indefinite form. I : DOMESTIC ECONOMY FIIOM THE VIEWPOINT OF TKADINiPaT HOME 'Mini "Not what a man makos, but what hi keepi" ia tbat which really counts in determining bia financial >uc oast, ii a tinu honored truiim whoar accuracy cannot be challenged. It ex prstlM a trulb, however, which ii quite at loratful in ils application to the affair, of a community aa it'ia to thou ol tht individual. Tht ag enviable end permanent prosperity—il that money could be retained for ho,ne circulation. In ordor to arrive at the actual prosperity enjoyed in this respect, however, by any community, that portion reprceented by tlio amount of money aettt out of town must In aubtructed from Ihe nun of proapcrity which ia possible upon the It.- i. of the whole amount of money earned in the town or coming into tho town. The result may show a lamentable condition of affairs representing all the difference belwcen hard times and good time, in the home town. The power of money is increased lo un astonishing extent through circulation. A Ion dollar bill spoilt ut home muy pay, say, one Ium died iloll.o., in liabililiei by the time it hai made the circuit from one to another. If that ten dollar bill is sent nut of town however, then with it goci not only its face value but also all tho helplulnosa whioh might have accrued from its being plticed iu local circulation. 1 Ins feature aerves further lo imprcia the importance ol tbi observation mude iu last week's article iu this series that there are no trifles iu thii home trade muttor.
