TWO INTERESTING LETTERS.
One From Toronto Editor and the Other
From MIR. Mimnn.

One From a Toronto Editor and the other
From Mr.. Wmnn.
WINDSOR, Ont, Feb 25.-Sir Charles
Tupper addressed a large public meet
ing here Monday evening. In the course
of his speech he read two letters, one of
which, he alleged, was written to
Erastus Wiman by Editor Farrar, of
The Toronto Globe, and the other to
Mr. Wiman b- Congressman Hit.
Editor Farrar's Letter.
FarTar's letter which is dated April
%, 1889, opens by stating that at present
the commercial union movement is at
a standstill. He gives three reasons for
this, one being that a large number of
people are inclined to think that I'VE
had better make for annexation at once,
instead OF making two bites of a cherry"
He goes on;
at seems to me, and | have talked
the thing over lately with maritime
members as we'll as with Manitobans,
that commercial union would only de-
lay the coming of the event those people
most desired. Hence, in the provinces
referred to, commercial union does not
take hold, whereas annexation will al
WAYS demand a hearing In Ontario,
the Jesuit campaign has brought that
aspect of things home to thousands who
would not look at commercial union.
Then again, the truth is that every one
who breaches commercial union would
prefer annexation, so that the Liberal
party is virtually wearing mask"
MIR. Wimnn's Letter.
Mr.. Wiman seems to have forwarded
this letter to Mr.. Hit, for the latter's
letter, which is dated April 25, 1899,
commences by stating that he has been
much interested in Farrar's letter, 1t
continues:
1.-The reasons he gives existed before
the commercial union movement began
with greater force than to-day. The
Republicans, as protectionists. it was
apprehended, would be against It, They
are not Their representatives vote for
it: their newspapers have received it
kindly and often with warm approval.
The commercial question is a business
question that concerns each citizen and
in way which he does not understand
at first, but sees more and more clearly
the more he talks intelligently abQpt it.
There is some logic in what FaraTT says
in not making two bites of cherry but
for going for annexation at once, but
think he is misled on that point III
way that often occurs.
''Where a man is thinking much on a
point and discussing it, he is liable to
narrow his horizon to those within his
reach: and his own mind, and perhaps
those he meets having pas ed on by dis
cussion TO distant results. he takes it for
granted that the wide world, which is
so wonderfully slow has kept up with
him, and has the same results in sight.
We must be very patient with the slow
moving popular mind. If the Canadian
public can, in three years, be argued up
to the point of voting commercial union
and giving sanction to the movement in
parliament, it will be great progress.
SloN as such movements are, the com
forting thing is that they never go back
ward"

ERAs-us WIMAN,s PLAN.

Wants Congress to Assist in Defeating
the Tory Party in Canada.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25. .--Erastus Wi
man is here in order to lend hand in
the Canadian campaign by having con-
gress pass the Hit resolution for reci-
procity. The subject has dragged along
for months, and now Wiman proposes
to galvanize it into life, His outlay for
postage during the last week reached
s! 900. He has written all over the
country for petitions, and they are pour
ing in by the hundreds, representing
the staunchest mercantile and business
classes of the country
Indiana, Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska
are among the western states which Mr..
Wiman has thus campaigned for petit
tions, and he has names by the bushel
from Joliet, Quincy, Peoria, Rock
Island, Belleville and Chicago. They
are not the usual blanket petitions, but
take in the pick of representative bust
ness men and firms. 1t is said that the
New England petition presents $3.50 000,-
600. In order to have this showing
saved from the usual fate of being
pigeon-holed by the petition clerk, Wi
man has had the best names taken from
each petition and printed on a little slip,
which he has placed before each of the
senators and representatives. Accom-
panying it Is an authorgraph letter from
Wiman, urging that the pending strug-
gle in Canada is one having as many in
terests for the United States as it has for
the Dominion.
He says that the success of the Lib
erals will mean the taking down of the
commercial restrictions between the two
countries and the building up of a com
mon barrier against England In such "a
moment Wiman calls the attention of
Congress to the great desirability of
helping toward Liberal victory by the
passage of the Hittre olution. Although
there is scant time, MIR. Hit hopes to
force through the resolution during one
of the last six suspension days of the
house The avalanche of petitions which
Wiman's efforts are pouring IN, will ma
terially aid In this direction.
