It is the paramount matter before the people. For years. both parâ€" ties, Liberal â€" and . ‘Conservative, have made standing offers forâ€" a reciprocal trade agreement _ with the Republic to the South.s Sir John Macdonald, the honored and revered Chieftain of the Conservaâ€" tive party in the tarif act. of 1879, popularly known as _ the ‘National Policy, placed in that act an ofer of reciprocity, _ and until he was called to join â€"the silent majority ~ardently advocatâ€" ed that principle. Previous to the elections in 1881, when he requesâ€" ted the Governor General to disâ€" solve parliament, heâ€" went to the country on arpolicy.of reciprocity. The elections took place on March 5th of that year, aad Sir ‘ John Macdonald was returned to power. When parliament assembled, the speech from the â€"throne (written by Sir John Macdonald Rimself), réferred to the negotiations that he was entefing: upon with the United States. Tt was the last will and testament of the. ‘Conâ€" servative leader to ‘the people of ‘Canada. He died a few weeks later. _ He was a statesman who saw in better trade relations with the United States} a larget marâ€" ket forâ€"Canada. What ‘ was the policy of â€" Sit John <Macdonald, was the policy of his followetrs in every; constituency of Canada, inâ€" cluding the riding _ of: Brockville. As time rolled on Sirâ€"John Macâ€" donald was gathered to his> Tathâ€" ers, but the policy that he left as a â€" legacy to the Conservative. party was taken up and ~propa~ gated by his â€"successors. _ These men included Sir John Thompson, the brightest â€"â€"mind in the . Tory party for years. After he passed away Sir Charles Tupper ‘became Premier, supplanting Sir . Macâ€" kenzie Bowell, and on. the eve. of the elections of 1896 he afain apâ€" pealéd to the Canadian â€"electorate upon a platform of better trade relations. . At the elections he was defeated and the greatest states= man that this country. has proâ€" duced, assumed the fhelm, Sir Wiltrid Laurier.
