EARL GREY MAPS FOR CANADA A
POLICY FOR WIPING OUT UNITED
STATES PROTECTIVE POLICY.


STATES PROTECTIVE POLICY.
from the pen of Earl Grey is published
to-day by Macmillians, entitled: "The
Commercial Policy of the British Colo
MES and the Mckinley Tariff" 1t is
dedicated "To the People of the Domin-
ion of Canada" The author explains
the dedication as follows: "This is a
subject of extreme importance to the
empire. l dedicate the work to you be-
cause no other part of the empire will
gain so much by adopting the policy
these pages recommend, or suffer so
much by clinging to an opposite policy"
Earl Grey expresses regret that the
discussion of the Mckinley bill in Cana
dy has imbued mere with party spirit
than is that of calm reasoning. The
matter should be regarded as purely
economic one, not as an occasion for the
exhibition of partisan feeling and argu-
ment.
Commercial union between Canada
and the United States is declared by
Earl Gray to be incompatible with Cana
das political independence. 1t would,
he thinks, be impossible to devise a
scheme of that kind which would be fair
to both people, or even to suggest plan
which would not be a fruitful source of
irritation and disputes.
AS for annexation, it would mean that
Canada, instead of being nation, rap
idly increasing in importance among the
countries of the world, would fall into
the condition of number of loosely
connected and powerless States. 1t
would be equivalent to a long step back
ward to the position she occupied be-
fore the consolidation.
Free trade, with customs excise suf-
feient to defray the expenses of govern
ment, would, in Earl Grey's opinion,
solve all the difficulties that now seem
to surround the political path of the
Canadians. Under such a policy, Cana
dian industries and agriculture would
| experience "boom" at the expense of
the United States, whose people are fet-
tered by the bonds of restrictive tariff.
Free trade would enable the Canadians
to produce cheaply the things most de-
sired by the Americans, and which are
the most heavily taxed by the Mckinley
| law. American traders would eagerly
seek these articles, and large quantity
of them would be Struggled across the
border. 1t would be impossible for the
American Government to maintain a
custom service which would effectually
guard the immense frontier between the
| United States and her northern neigh
Dor. Sooner or later the Mckinley law
would be abandoned-at least, so far as
| Canada is concerned. Thus would be
brought about a condition of affairs bet
ter for Canada than commercial union or
annexation.

SETTLEMENT AT LAST.

Rejoicing at the Ending of the Granite
 Cutters Strike at Barre, Vt. BARRE, Vt.. Sep. 24.-The last act in the trouble of the granite industry oc- cured here when the representatives of the Union and the Association signed the bill of prices and agreement, thus ending 8 long and bitter contest of five months duration. The dealers held a long ses- sion to discuss the wisdom of beginning work before a settlement was made else where. but finally decided to do so, and the bill was signed.
 It is understood that the Association agrees to have Barclay Brothers injunc- tion removed, and all sheds will resume work as union yards Monday. Union cutters are happy over the outcome of the struggle and look upon the settle ment as a partial victory.
 Men will be set to work rapidly, lead ing dealers notifying the trade to send orders so that stock can be quarried before winter. Barclay Brothers and Mo Donald & Son of Quincy have purchased the Dirigo Granite Company's valuable dark quarry. Real estate owners and the general public are pleased at the settle ment of the longest and most costly la Dor trouble ever known here.

NEW PARTY IN ENGLAND.
Sir John Gorst's Movement Threatens the
 Gladstone Government.

LONDON, Sep. 24-A new danger threatens MT. Gladstone's government in the movement headed by Sir John Eldon Gorst, recently Lord Salisbury s Financial Secretary to the Treasury, to form 8 party to advocate dealing with social legislation or, in other words, with the labor questions, in preference to Irish home rule, which the Premier in- .sists on putting to the front to the virtual exclusion, for long time, of definite ac- tion on matters of far more importance to the people.
 More than 50 of the advanced Conserva- tives and Unionists have already prom Used adherence to such 8 party and it's programme, and the importance of Horst's leadership in such 8 crusade can not be overestimated. He is one of the most clever men on the Conservative side of the House of Commons, and is so gen. timely devoted to the cause of the work ingmen that he constantly courted the resentment of his chief while in office by urging upon the Salisbury Cabinet the claims of labor, which he frequently did at times most inopportune to the plans of the Administration.
 Although, of course, party intrigues rather than sincerity in the cause of the poor is charged as the basis of the move ment, and may have some to do with it in the adhesion of some Unionists to Sir Johns scheme, nevertheless it may serve to attract 8 good many malcontents from the Liberal majority.
