The parliamentary appear- ance of the BNA Act was, of course, merely the final phase of a long and arduous effort. The Charlottetown and Que- bec conferences are, perhaps, better known than the smaller but crucial London conference which opened Dc. 4, 1866. DEMANDED RAILWAY This brought together a six- man delegation from the two Canadas--three from each-- led by George Etienne Cartier and Macdonald, with five-man delgations from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, led re- spectively by Charles Tupper and Leonard Tilley. The 16 toiled over the 72 "Quebec resolutions," clarify- ing or extending them, until Christmas Eve when Macdon- ald, conference chairman, re- ported to Carnarvon that the "London resolutions" were ready for drafting into a bill. The Maritimers announced at the outset that their author- ity to act was contingent upon a guarantee of the construc- tion of an Intercolonial Rail- way, perennial political foot- ball of the times. Indeed, not only the railway but its pre- cise route was big news in the Maritimes, as is indicated by this rhyme: "Mr. Tilley will you stop puffing and blowing "And tell us which way the railway is going." Historian Creighton, in his The Road to Confederation, tells how colonial officials hit the roof when they saw an early draft of the bill with the title "The Kingdom of Can- ada." This would be an af- front to the U.S., they said. "Dominion" was a compro- mise apparently inspired by Tilley's reading of Psalm 72: "He shall have dominion from sea to sea." i Frank Underhill writes in The Image of Confederation that one lack in the legislation was "'the element that is rep- resented by the words with which the Amrican constitu- tion begins: "We the people." "The BNA Act was, in form, the work of the British im- perial Parliament, and, in fact, the work of a small elite group of colonial politicians who were in advance of their people. . . . The Quebec res- olutions were not submitted to the voters for ratification by general election or refer- endum. And this lack of an effective popular basis for the new system of politics has re- mained a flaw in the founda- tion of our national structure ever since." Predicting that the new country would eventually be second in size only to Russia, Carnarvon said that even at Old Chief's Kingston Home Kept Closely By JOHN DOWELL Kingston Whig-Standard KINGSTON, Ont. (CP)-- There's this problem Reginald Dixon has with machine-pro- duced items such as door locks «and hinges. They just don't fit into his efforts to restore Belle- yue House on Centre Street which was the home of Sir John A. Macdonald back about 1848. Mr. Dixon, a former major who is federally appointed cur- ator of the Cld Chief's Mediter- ranean - style home, wants everything to look as close as possible to the way Sir John A. would have seen it. That means modern locks and door hinges, no matter how beat up the; are, will not do. -- For instance, the welding of door hinges was done differ- ently in those days before arc welding was heard of. Black- smiths fired their forges to weld teel on steel. A piece of steel as bent to form the loop for the door pins and then the bent piece was welded directly to the hinge's main arm. After hunting around, Mr. Dixon found a local welder who Biggest Party In B.C. History VANCOUVER (CP) --This West Coast city will wish the rest of Canada an exuberant happy birthday July 1 with the biggest blowout in the history of British Columbia. A party--aptly dubbed the Canadian Birthday Party--will be staged at Empire Stadium. It promises to be the gaudiest, most lavish public affair ever seen in Canada's third biggest city. Everybody is invited. There'll be dancing girls, fireworks, a parade, horses, floats, a talent show and a Who's Who of Ca- nadian athletes, statesmen, ex- plorers, scientists, artists and war heroes, "The star of the show will be Canada," says Vancouver Sun publisher Stuart Keate, chair- man of the birthday committee. "And the end result will be a celebration by Canada's third largest metropolis of unparal- lelled stature and dimension. "The total budget will be $42,- 500 but there will be more than $200,000 worth of volunteer tal- ent in the show." Producers of a planned two- hour stadium show plan to leave no Canadian historical event or personality unrepresented in their action-filled salute to Can- ada's 100 years of existence. To Original could do a job that looked enough like an original sample to fool almost anyone. Why, one might ask, when craftsmen possessing the skills of bygone ages are 80 rare, is Mr. Dixon so fussy. It's "total environment," he says, using space-age terminol- ogy to describe his efforts to bring back the horse and buggy age. He wants the place to look, feel, and even smell, like an early Victorian home, Landscap- ing will be as close as possible to the original. "TI want to use greenery to shut off the place from the out- side world. When people come on to the grounds I want them to have the feeling of stepping back in time." Even now, with interior reno- vations incomplete, there is a sense of timelessness about Bellevue House. Walls, wood- work and stair bannisters have been almost completely re- stored, Mr. Dixon has even had the window frames rebuilt and put in old glass with its warps and flaws that make the scenery shimmer when you walk by and the outset, with a population of 4,000,000, it was "superior" in population, in revenue, in trade and in shipping to the 13 colonies when they issued their declaration of independ- ence. Legislators were told of the "broad, fertile districts" and "immeasurable, barbar- ous lands" of the West and North that would be added. Carnarvon ventured to sur- mise: "Perhaps it is not very far distant when even British Columbia and Vancouver Is- land may be incorporated." Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland, despite hesita- tions, would "'gravitate to the common centre." The legis- lators would probably have been surprised if they had been able to peer into the fu- ture and see that the West would come in long before Newfoundland, the oldest col- ony, fell into step in 1949, rounding out the Confeder- ation at 10 provinces, HINT OF TROUBLE Carnarvon said Confeder- ation was being called a "compromise that like all compromises contains the germ of future disunion." "It is true that it is a com- promise so far as it is founded upon the consent of the prov- inces; it is true that it has been rendered possible by the surrender of certain powers, rights and pretensions by the several provinces into the hands of the central authority. "But it is also to be remem- bred that--unlike every other federation that has existed, it derives its political existence from an external authority . .. the British Crown. And I cannot but recognize in this some security against those conflicts of states' rights and central authority which in other federations have some- times proved so disastrous." The mammoth bill under- went some mild amendment. Parliament nearly granted the vote to females in Canada long before Britain but one sharp-eyed legislator spotted that the word "male" needed to be inserted in one clause. Lord Campbell, complaining at the "irresistable velocity" with which the legislation was being handled, argued force- fully that Nova Scotia should be excluded from the measure despite approval by the legis- lature of a resolution regard- ing Confederation. FAVORS INDEPENDENCE "The power by which the resolution was adopted is not the power to which Nova Sco- tia wants to confide its des- tiny," said Campbell. . "Are they not entitled in a matter which affects name, 'dignity, existence, commerce and de- fence, to appeal from a sys- tem which their intelligence rejects to a system their in- telligence has chosen?" promise negotiated. 1898 -- National plebiscite, testing opinion, favors prohi- bition. 1899--Canada sends troops to Boer War; 2,300 Doukho- bors from Russia land at Halifax. 1900 -- Canadians spear- head victory at Paardeberg and help raise siege of Mafe- ng. 1901 -- Prohibition launched in P.E.I. 1902 -- Trans - Pacific ca- ble from Vancouver to Bris- bane completed. 1903--Alaska boundary dis- pute decided in favor of U.S.; landslide buries Frank, Alta., with loss of 66 lives; 125 die in Coal Creek, B.C., mine explo- sion. 1904--Toronto hit by §11,- 000,000 fire, 1905--Provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan created. 1906 -- Britain hands over fortresses of Esquimalt and Halifax to Canada, 1907 -- Marconi establishes transatlantic wireless service with base at Glace Bay, N.S.; 60 workmen killed in collapse of Quebec bridge. 1908--Forest fires destroy three Kootenay, B.C., towns with 70 dead. 1908--J.

Except for bits of painting yet to be done, the rebuilding is complete. Next, draperies, wallpaper and carpeting are to be put in. After that will come the fur- niture which has been pur- chased here and there by the department of northern affairs which doles out the required items to restored homes like Bellevue House. Mr. Dixon says there may be a few of the first prime minis- ter's original pieces of furniture in the house, but furnishing will be aimed merely at trying to come as close as possible to the period around 1848. "If we set out to buy original Sir John A. furniture we would end up with about 43 beds," he! said, laughing. | "Many persons in this area | have things they say belonged to him and some of it may be real but it is very hard to tell whether it is or not." Where needed pieces of furni- ture are unavailable, Mr. Dixon | has had them built to conform) to the style of the times. While| the items may not precisely re- semble originals they Will be as/| close as man in 1967 can make! them. A stack of faded books on in- terior decorating sits on Mr. Dixon's desk.
