ON AN ANNEXATION PLATFORM
This IL the Issue on which Mr.. Macdonald
Appeals to Toronto Voters.

TORONTO. March Tho citizens OF Toronto
are to have an opportunity shortly to vote for
or against the annexation OF Canadn to the
United States. Ernest Albert Macdonald, who
was q candidate for the Toronto Mayoralty
last January. to-day announced himself as u
candidate to represent Toronto in the Ontario
Legislature. for which an election will shortly
be held to I'LL tho vacancy caused by the death
OF n member. In his address issued to tho
electors he says the present situation OF Can
ada is desperate. and that the only way out is
political union with the United States. and he
advocates political union on the following
grounds:
l. The assumption by the Union OF all pub
lie debts. Dominion. provincial. and municipal.
2. The deepening and widening OF the st.
Lawrence. wellnnd. and other canals 80 as to
admit any or all ocean vessels to nll tho prin-
cipal lake ports. and the construction OF the
Lake Huron and Ontario Ship Canal with a
like object.
g. The admission and recognition OF each
province as sovereign State OF the Union.
In his address he says:
I'VE have n country that Is the grandcst
natural heritage on the face OF the earth: but
she has been restricted and impoverished by
a mistaken policy. by an attempt on the part
OF some to make Canada n part OF Europe when
she was intended to form part OF America.
Annexation would mean perpetual treaty
OF peace and free and unrestricted trade with
70.0O0.OOO Of our own people. in consequence
OF which millions OF dollars would flow into
our country. and the investor would havo no
cause to fear change OF trade relations that
would destroy or conflscato' his means: and
our mineral resources would be developed on
such a scale as would bring prosperity to the
whole country"
