OTTAWA, Ont, Aug 24.-The debate
on the address was proceeded with in
the House of Commons today Mr.. Nc
Innis, member for Vancouver, who is
the youngest member of the House,

adoption.
Sir Charles Upper, as leader of the
opposition, replied. Sir Charles, in con-
clusion, said that the American Govern
ment would not consent to renew the
reciprocity treaty of 1854.
Mr.. Laurier made a very eloquent re-
ply He said that the Government of
Sir Charles Topper was defeated be-
cause it refused to reform the fiscal
policy, because it was corrupt and eX-
trayagant, and because, instead of ap-
pealing to the intelligence and common

pealed to their religious prejudices.

Mitchell Oregon's senior United States
Senator, arrived home to-day from
Washington. Senator Mitchell as soon
as he arranges some private business,
will take up the stump in this State for
Mckinley and Hobart. Speaking Of
the campaign the Senator said:
The outlook in the East is decidedly
favorable to the election Of Mckinley.
From what l can learn the sentiment
in the Middle West is rapidly chang
ing. In Indiana Illinois and Minnesota
can ticket. l do not regard any one of
the States as being the least doubtful.
The chances are also favorable for the
Republicans to carry Kentucky.
when / take the stump l will fully
set forth my views as to why Mckinley
should be elected President of the
United States. There are several vital
questions in this campaign aside from
the financial question. There is the
question of protection to American in
dustries and American labor, the
question of national supremacy, integ-
rity of the organization and ultimate
decisions of the national judiciary. In
other words, the same questions are
involved in the coming campaign rela-
tive to policies and principles over the
Vindication of which the War of the
Republican was fought to finish"

AIESBURY, Mass, Aug. 28.-A let
ter received here from General Neal
Dow. the noted Prohibitionist and for
mer candidate for the Presidency, in
which ne gives his views on the money

says:
The proposition of the Populists and
other silver men is this: That Con-
gress enact a bill making 90 cents in sill
yer equal in value to 100 cents in gold;
that the 80 cents be cOmpulsorily re-
ceived as full payment for 100 cents in
gold That, if accomplished, would be
a lie, a cheat, a fraud l don't see how
an honest man can consent TO that,
much less propose it. If adopted the
country would be in a panic while it
continued"
