STEVENS Conwrvfttive Candidate'i Meeting-Reciprocity Pact Arraigned—Canada Should Keep Natural Resources for Own Benefit— Can- m ada Part ot Empire In Peace and In War. ■■ y Tailing arguments against the rem- procity agreement were piled ■ up ut the meeting ip Larson'* pavilion nn Wednesday eveuing when Mr. II. II. Stevens made his initial bnw lo lanil electors and in the course nf a strong anil eloquent address submitted 'tis argument against reciprocity, dealing with it in this instance frnm the standpoint of the producer and the manufacturer.. Mr. S. D. Schultx, chairman of tpp L'nnservativ e campaign committee, ocupied the chair and introduced as the first speaker Mr. 0. M. Wnodworth of Vancouver. Mr. Wooilwortlt began by declaring tbat the issue now before tbe Canadian people was one of the greatest issues thst bad appeared during the past 80 or 80 years. There were many questions which might l»e dealt witb such ss Indian reserves, better terms /or H. 0., the right nf the province to administer ita own lands, tbe improvement of Burrard Inlet as a harbor, in each of which the position of Mr. Borden ui leader of the Cousorvstivo .putty wu iu favorable contrast witb tbat of tho Liberal party. Hcciprocily, how ever, was tbe great iuue. He waa against reciprocity first ai a matter of sentiment. Discussing the issue from this standpoint ho quoted tbo epitaph upon the monument of Joseph How* si Halifax, t« the memorable words of Sir .liilm A. McDonald during bis laat campaign "A British subject I wu born and a British subject I will dje" and also made elective use of tbe United Empiru Loyalist* sml the war of < 1(18. Tbs speaker cited the fact that Canada bad spent hundred* of million* of dollars nn line* of communication throughout tbe Dominion and this would bo of little use were reciprocity to be inaugurated thus diverting traffic to other routes. In all such bargains u this proposed pact, the larger party controls ths smaller, the greater dom inatcs the lesser This is precisely what tbe United States expect to do if they can secure reciprocity. In support nf this position tho speak "r read ouotation* from l'rcsidct't Tall. ' Champ Clark, Senator McCall and likewise extract* from leading United States journals all showing that iu tbsir estimation reciprocity meant that the United State* would dominate Ibe situation, make use of Canada for their own benefit and ultimately to anex Ibe country to the States. Sucb wu the effect of tbe pact tbat Sir Wilfrid i Uuri*r would make but Canada would ' reply on September 81st that we nf today are u loyal as woro our forefather* and will have none of tbo pact. Turning to it* economical phases Mr. Woodwortb contruted the doubtful value of tbe United States marlt.it fur Canadian products witb tbe great lime- fits offered by tbe British market. He pointsd out that under present conditions British c.p'tal »s* flowing lot) Canada at tbe rate nf tltOM"Mn per year and reciprocity weald cut nl this most nscessary assistance. Hs further dsalt with tbe pact ia it* bearing upon flab and lumber, showing It* harmful poasibilitiei with referoncs to British Columbia and closed wltb tie declaration that reciprocity was neither good sentiment nor good business u MfJ.Jf Canada aod richly deserved the l' JKtloa witb wbich.lt would meet at '• tbs hand* of the Canadian clectoralo. ■ afterward but ho held that those prices wero due to the fact that lb* Crimean war wt) tbt U. S. civil war w*g*d during that period and were not atlri- billable tQ the treaty Itself, At that limo reciprocity wu a good thing fnr Canada, because we had nn hnmc mar ket nnd the Hril vli iiiuiket WW inu,cos- •title tp us, but conditions have been revolutionized since tbat time, tb* very opposite being nuw tbe cuo. Iu the abrogation nf that old treaty tbo object of tb* United States had been to coerce Canada Intn annexation. After the abrogation tbey expected to see Canada go to pieces, beciin dismembered and by force of circumstances become their property. For tunately fnr ber, Canada bad al tbo time a galaxy of very able men who, led hy Wir John A. McDonald, conceived apd carried out tbo sebems of Confederation which was the first clip in the upbuilding of Canada and tbe expectations of the States wors ditup pointed. Hand in hand with this wo.il commercial development wbicb had proceeded steadily until tbe present Ovor (600,000,000 had been spent in our railways and canals, great systems nf inter-provincial communication had boon built up, un immense Internal trado bad been built up and asked tb* speaker, "Are we to throw all Ibis to the wind* just when we sre about to reap the real benefits thereof I" Tbat j* wbat reciprocity would do, but tie put wu doomed. Bsferring to an address mads tb* previous evening by Mr. Bcnklcr the Liberal candilat*, Mr. Stsvsu declared that it WU chars: tori zed, by paucity of argument aud consisted mostly of broad, unsupported statements sucb u any ons might easily utter. He could nnt so himself how the statement* made were to bo reconciled, namely, that reciprocity would mean lower prices for the consumer and higher prices for tbs producr ot tbe same time. A big delegation of farmers from the prairit provinces bad waited on Sir Wilfrid Uurier, uking for reciprocity In machinery, shelf hardware aud leather goods and bo bad replied by giving something clss, namely reciprocity nn foodstuffs ■ < Mr. Stevens on arising tn address the audience, wu greeted wltb prolong ed applause. After a preface contain lag well chosen remarks complimentary to North Vancouvtr he entered upon bis main 'object by stating that hav iug dealt witb reciprocity on Mow'-iy night from tho standpoint of the ■'»* turner, he proposed tp appro nli it upon thl* occasion from the slnnnuoini of tbt producer and tbt manufacturer He referred ta the policy of the Conservative potty it outined by Mr, B. L. Borden aad declared that. If wtt sn excellent platform and positive in lis term*. Ml read oxtracis from I letter appearing in a Vancouver paper In wbicb the writer bad mii-ceustrned bit remark* on Monday evsolng ttte.- live to Ibe benefits of tin reciprocity treaty of 1*6*. He IM not stated that tb* treaty was a bad thing far Canada, bat on 'At contrary bad admitted that tbt farmers bad rtetlvtd Proceeding tn discuss tbis form nf reciprocity Mr. Btevsus first referred to wheat. It wu said that higher prices for wheat would result, yst he read from market reports showing that wheat is uow and usually is three or four cents higher la Winnipeg than in Chicagn. It Is true that tbe big mills nf. tbe States pay more fnr No, I hard at times, because tbey absolu- lely must have that wheat whatever the pries. If, however, tbs amount of No. 1 bard imported by tbe States ex ' ceded the demand tbea tht pi i. s would at ouce bs lowered and further, tbe surplus would be cent to foreign im-r kets to compete with wheat shipped from Canada direct. Even If there were no effect on prices, the exportation pt our wheat tt tbe States to bs milled would meau Ibst thoy would have the. advantage nf Ibe by product* sucb a> bran and abort wbicb are al present three nr four «eul* cheaper In Canada than la tbt Btetes. Hence If wheal is sbippsd away by products must be bought back witb duty added. With rsferencc to cattle. Cattle on th* hoof are higher in pries in tho States it is true, but why f Simply because tbey are able In tbeir large establish meuls lo slaughter calllc in tremeu dnus numbers and tn use every scrap of the animal, even to the hoofs for •onto purpose of manufacture, while in Canada, owing to our lack of these fa cilitiee all we can get from ths rattle it tbeir carcaaos and bide. Tbt re«u,t is tbat cattle nn tbe hoof arc worth moro tp the manufacturer than in Canada. The Conservative platform how ever proposes tp remedy this atate pf affaire hy (WtoMWnf. a chilled meal Muitry with depots distributed throughout tbe Dominion where cattle cts be slaughtered in large numbers, tbo meat kepi in cold storage until required and the by products used toy those ftrftm tor which th*y ar* suit able.

At present, laid tbt speaker, we am essentially a raw material psnple snd tbit is Invariably tb* man who sccurei tbt sma|l tad pt tbt profits. |t |t tbo process pf manufacture that creates wealth and yield*, great profits. Csn ada ba* all tbt natural conditions (neb (I raw material, cheap power (nd food resources to make ber perhaps tbt greatest manufacturing country in tbt world. It would be suicidal tn hand our manufacturing possibilities over tp tbe United Btates. Canada should sit tight at tbt present juncture fain) follow a course that wiil make tht best pf par uatural resources and our manufacturing advantages fnr pur awn benefit. After a forceful reference to tbt water power assets of tlm Dominion tbe speaker passed on to diicuss tht transportation problem. This is the most valuabls uiot iu tbo possession of Vancouver and tbo lower majnlind of B. C. Ws uunl tbe traffic from the hintsrland lying to tbo uurtb and east of ns. If tbo situation is properly bundled we cau socuro greater benefit frnm tbe Panama Cauai than auy piker city nr section of tho Pacific cout. The Democratic party captured tbt United States congress at tho poll* lut year by being swsrn to tariff reduction u between the States and Canada. President Taft in reciprocity wu endeavoring to forestall tbe action nf tho Democratic party hy lowering tbe tariff in certain respects la consideration nf certain equivalents from Canada, and if successful ho would moke capital out of it iu seeking reelection by declaring tbat he bed secured valuable coueesalous from Canada by giving uly o portion of what the Democrat* proppssd lo give us fir nothing. Canada should pause bore and wait a little. Let tbe Btates lor- sr tbeir tariff if they wish lo do so We will scept tbeir market nf !">, 0041,0410 for wbat it is worth and pre serve our own resources for our solves. Mr. Stevens tben road a jiersonal letter from one of Ibe leading lumber msn of Miosapolis iu wbicb he do.lurid that reciprocity would greatly bene fit United Wales cities and put Winni peg, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver and other Canadian cities back where they woro fifteen years ago. Oregon and Wubiugton lumbermen, declared Ihe speaker, want to capture the market of tbe prairie provinces aud supply II with our raw material, manufactured in their mills, If wo are foolish enough lo allow It. Tbe spsakcr then proceeded u be said to "wave tbe old lag." lie had been charged by Mr. Wade with being an American citizen f It wu f'llst. Ho never lad been an, American cili xan.

BOAHD AND CITY COUNCIL. A decision was banded down by th>i courts, tt Nelson last week, which has Important bearing upon tbe relative rights snd duties of tbe Board of School Trustees ami tt* City Co'mci.. in tbe matter of providing money for school purposes. The board of school trustees of tbe ity nf Nelson submitted estimates to tbe city council wbicb included pre 'vision for the sum of »J3,0iH) which the trustees placed under ordinary es penditures and which tbe council declined to provide, upon tbe ground tba'. the items designated were i properly eitrant.iinary cpem-'s. Tbe board of school trustees mad" application lo the iimrts for a v.-it cf inaudamus, directing tbe council to provide tbe amount required, wi(h tbe result tbat judgment was banded dm a last week by Justice Gregory, to tbe effect that "The prerogative writ of mandamus is, speaking generally, only allowed where tbe party has a clear right and no other appropriate rem inly." Tbo writ was therefore refused on ths ground tbat tbe council bad not yet failed lo perform any clear duty imposed upon it by the statute. Ths judgment cites th» fact that t'-e school act could be improved in aome respects and likewise contains plain and wholesome admonition witb regard to the desirability of tbs schoji boards aod councils working io bar muiiy and avoiding tbe expenditure ff public monies in unuecessaiy l!ti gation, The erect wording of the judgment, ia tbis reepeet is aa follows: I1 Tbe right here seems to me to be anything but clear, io faet there is so much doubt arising about the construe tion nf tbe school act that tke discretion of the court should not bs exercised in favor of granting tbe writ. The school act undoubtedly requires amending in several particulars, but it seems to me tbat Ibe general intent js reasonably clear and there should he no difficulty in operating under it, if both tbe board of trustees and the mnnlcipal council each for itself de tormina to work in harmony witb and aot to usurp the other's functions. The preeent litigation and waete of public monies is unfortunate but will be jusli- Dad If it clears the atmosphere an* reestablishes tbe pleasant relations wbicb | presume once existed betwee.i tbe two bodies." Tbe judgment procee.Ts In the next clause to distinguish between ordinary and extraordinary expenditures aa defined in the school act to point out tbat wbile Ibe council ie not at liberty to revise tbe school board's estimates witb reference to tbe former, it ie empowered to revise tbe tetter and tu alter tbem, if deemed advisable, in which case tbe school board baa the right of appeal tn tbe electorate. Tbis clause of tke judgment ie ae follows: "Section 311 nf tbe act casts upon th-. hoard tbe duty of providing schools, etc., aad section it prescribes tbat all sxpeases therefor shell be borne and defrayed by the municipality, but Ibe board must, under section 48, a* a preliminary, lay before tb* council a detailed estimate of tke suras required by the board for tbe current year's or diaary eipensea sf maintaining tbe schools.

Several of the councillor* Win opposed to thia, saying that ■> let of time would be wasted In doing an and as ths engineer is the most likely to ipprove ths plans a full week would be lost. It WM Anally agreed that the engineer should report 01, th> roail at the nnt masting but tbat Messrs Hucknill k Kussell should conttnus the line up to tha Capilano hotel. A latter from the deputy minister ot lands was read aokuowledging a letter of the council with enclosed cheek fpr 1071.70 in payment of balancs of purchase money on lots 1363 and 1413, group one New Westminster district and applying for crown grants of those lots. It was lurther stated in the letter that the department before proceeding with issuance of tbese erown grants would like to* know whether this property is included in tbe transfor mails to the corporation of North Vancouvsr in accordance with tbe act of incorporation passed hj the legislature on thu 12th of Kerch, 1006. Tho clerk was instructed to s'pply the department with the desired infor niation, Tbe city engiuuer of Vancouver in iiimii'il the council and the corporation of North Vancouver re taking over tho pipe line.

In connection iwt bthis matter ths dis trict engineer wes instructed to attend tu this at once with newer te let. Upon a complaint by the buildjng imlliee that Contractor Jay was not doing tbs finishing work on the new nn nieipal hall according to specifics lipns, t'oiin Bridgmen moved that ths clerk should notify the architect, Mr. McAuley and ask bim to see tbat the work would be done as stated iu tbe specificatioris.

OOMHWIOATloii Editor Bapress.: Diar Sir,—I was at tin muting nt the city council on Monday evening and hoard the discussion regarding the ferry company and 'ell to see whin you had occasion to make a glaring headline in yesterday'a edition saying that the city la Iniing W.ooo per to- num pn thl ferries. An Inquiry was made by an alder- man.as to whether tho directors were prpviding for injures! ami a linking fund tn ropey the city's debentures issued to bay stock in thi ferry company. Thi' Would require, it WU sgid, $38,000 per unuuni. Tbe iniwpr was "No." Now sir, if the ferry directors do not pay. the $28,000 is that any reason tp say that tho forrics are losing that money. It is simply this. Thl city owns the ferry company having bought it with borrowed money. The gJ8,000 is to pay back that borrowed money. The city baa value in stock of the company, therefore the city should provide the sinking fund and interest. The company claim to be providing a sinking fund fnr their own debentures also to be writing off a sufficient amount for depreciation of stock If this is so, which romains to be seen of nurse, they are, 1 think, doing very well. Surely, sir, it would lio better tp gp ipto tho matter a bit edpser before publishing a scaro headline as you did on Tuesday whicii is a very poor advertisement for our city. JAMES CHAPMAN Tbe particular phase of ferry matters to which tho above lotter rofers, will be dealt with editorially aftortbo financial statement which it has liceu decided to publish has appeared. Meantime wo may say that inasmuch as tho itemized ferry siatomeut for sis months past was published in tli. Express a week ugo today aud inasmuch as tho sense in which Ihe phraso iu our headline to which objection is taken was used, was clearly explain ed in the article which followed ami inasmuch as wo believe that tke read srs of this papor are porsons of intelligence, we do not sbaro the fears which our esteemod corrcspondnt appears to entertain, that the reputation of the city of Nortb Veneovvor will be impaired because of our modest headline.—Ed.
