One oi the lurgeal uudiiucei ever
gathered together in Ihii cily greeted
Sir Charltt iliblicrl Tupper on Friday
evening lull to list ul) to Ins address
upon the Heciprocity iamc and they
were well repuid for their attendance
by the lino infill and convincing
•peach to which they liitened.
II win ulmoil il o'clock liefore Sir
Charles Hibbert Tupper rose lo ipeak
after having been introduced by Mr.
fl, II. Moid, ii, the president dl the locul Conservulive Aliociulinn. He uc
knowledges! the kind reterencea I i bun
self by the cliuiriiiun and voiced bis
appreciation of the manner in which
the local aasociation had naked him in
come over. In times past be had ventured lo tui.e iisue with his party on
numerous mutters, in lacl be thought
il would be poor policy on the pari oi
any parte lo narrow itself down to ex
eluding free thought ev.n by its own
members, but in spite of this (ucl bv I
bud receiveil un invitation to cine to
Norlli Vancouver without being asked
hia poiition on Reciprocity ami i,o
limitation had born placed on him in
any way. Later on in the evening lie
said as a ma Iter of fuel he would nol
have accepted uu invitation to spe.ik
on tire subject under any other cii-
cuinstuneci because he wu. out of politic
III opening lite subject he propoicd
to discuss thc propoicd Heciprocity
Treaty not as a trade issue or in iliuii as to llie several issues, ilicludie;
wli.-.ii. lumber, pulp wood, fruit ami
articles of manufacture. At fiisi
thought this may be Considered extraordinary. Many have n desire lo gel
rich but the ipoaLor hud un abiding
if.nl that line atato of huckstering
would paaa. It is nol ull we should
set our In.ills to. II that feeling had
predominated in yvara pint be ucclar-
od there would be no Vancouver and
no future would huve In en considered.
He intended lo dsicuss the proposed
issue from a national point of view.
The one cardinal po'nt wat not what
ii good lor a year nr tq. but lor Ihe
permanency of the Briti-h Consolidation in British North America.
Thii wai challenged first in the lime
ol Sir .John McDonald when he had
(ought against the idea thut'Canada's
future wus wrupped up In thai nl Ihe
Republic lo the South. -
Sir Wilfrid I.aurier, us reported in
"Thc Clobc" tf November lOTfa, I8"u,
speaking at Bolton, laid: -
"Our object is, when there ia n Lib-
"oral ."bu iiiuii.oi ai at Oltuwu, to

"al or manufactured, provided tlio

The niilional policy had been ndnpl

at that lime, "wo, nal in VorieoUvet

thit remark. Many ohuugce had laVin
place since thai time however when it
wui thought the inicrcliungc ol raw
iii.iini.il, would be fairly mil by Can-
.oi.i It wai interesting lo note, he
said, tli.it in every instance annua-
lioniiti bad favor.d reciprocity while
imperialists hud oppoied it. He did
not wiih, however, lo cast any reflection on the Liberal party because of
ibis The import! and export! Ie

Sir Charles Hibbert
Tupper, K.C.M.G.
AN IMPRJJSSIPN
For a name Tupper haa a moit determined Bound. I know a man called
Tupper who Uvea in a village in Lancashire ; Ht ii.n't bit real name, either
christian or family, but a soubriquet,
nr to speak more commonly, a nickname which the talk around havo fastened on hirh, uud bore's the reason
why. Home years ago luring at a
oat tie unlc in a ueurhy villago where
the iutile village toll got to discussing
hoi'soniunahip our Iricnd mni.il that
not only could he muster an etpiine
alceil, Inn thcro ami then annonncod
his imi ni ion ol riding u bull thu three
ur ao miles Home. And ho did.
Miijlic mime anccatnr ol the Tup-
pera who huvo carved oul u niche lor
tliemselvos iu Canadian history per
i. it mill inline SUch del el mini il leal,
und thereby won his name. Certain it
is us you loofc at Sir Charles, that he
bus niliciiii ,1 determination—grim determination if you like, but the si i outline nf the jaw are rolievul by tho
humorous, expression of the eyes where
..hint", forth a buoyancy ol spirit
which contrary polilicul gales have not
swaulpud.
People who havo been wandering in
the puzzle maze ol tho reciprocity nt-
, nun in wore rcliovod to hear s voice
which spoke as one huviug authority,
und the vague fueling of unrest hus
itceii iiicccodul in lho minds of many
by u determination to light lho proposed reciprocity agreement tn tha
but ditch.
Sir i li.'ili■■' position calls to mind
mini her imperialist politician who, to
mo hii own words hits been "ploughing hii lonely furrow." Another de-
iiiiniiu.l mun of buoyant perionulity
und one wonders ahull wo aec the day
when these two nicinhnrk on a Hood
tide whicli loada on.

SPEECH
The hiuny liundruli who hcurd the
speech upon the reciprocity issue, delivered in this cily on Friday evening
- list 1iy Sir Charles Hibbort Tupper,
listened to a speech that will rank ai
one ol the strongest uud nuist able
deliverances yet hoard in any part of
Canada upon ibis momentoue i|Uei
linn. 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

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

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

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

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

that money could be retained for

money earned in the town or coming into tho town. The result may
show a lamentable condition of affairs
representing all the difference belwcen

increased lo un astonishing extent

thereby allowing the rough sua to enter and sink them, impels me lo call
attention to the carelessness and want
of forethought displayed in connection
