of 40 years ago, but progressive
measures. He should support any
and all measures that would help
develop the country, be it coffee, to-
bacco or anything else. If we do
as the Hon. Noble Widemann wishes,
we shall be as far behind DO years
from now as we are at the pres
ent time. So far as the personal
attack on himself was concerned he
cared nothing for it, he would put
his record against the honorable
members during the time he had
been in the House, and let the mem
bers judge for themselves. If any
thing was to be done, it should be
done now and demonstrate for all
time whether or not the country
must depend on sugar and rice.
Noble Widemann asked the Min
lister of the Interior if he said that
he had circulated stories about Mr..
Forsyth.
The Minister replied that he had
said that stories had been circulated
as having come from him and those
who train with him,
Continuing, Noble Widemann said
he had been called an old shell back,
q gray headed fossil, a crank, and
other epithets. He was not in
the habit of calling people such
names, but whatever the Minister
may call him he cared nothing for.
He would say that this is perhaps
another pet scheme of the Minister,
which he wants to foist on the pub
lie. He said that it was so, that 40
years ago he did with his own hands
plant coffee, and he would like to
see the Minister of the Interior do
that. He has not got the pluck to
do it. He can sit there and spend
other peoples money, though, to do
it.
! Noble Wight said that from the
remarks of the Minister of the In
terror one would think that he Mr..
Wight) was opposed to developing
the recources of the Kingdom; this
was great mistake. He was in
favor Of encouraging all industries
that would tend to develop the
country, but did not favor the pay
ing of subsidies to corporation, he
much preferred that all should have
chance, and by SO doing encour-
age the small farmer to greater ex-
ertions to cultivate his land and per-
feet his crops.
