THE FEDERATION CONFERENCE.

SIR HENRY PARKES' SPEECH.

[Pin Press Association.!

Milboubne, February 10.

The Federation Conference met at ii a.m. All the delegates were present. Sir H. Farkes moved the resolution of which he had given notice. He began with a reference to a select committee of the Victorian Assembly which had considered the question 33 years ago. The whole question had then been discussed as one of public importance, and the way they had treated it redounded to their honor. It was in the same spirit that the present movement was being carried on. He wanted their attention to the question of federation. If the colonies had acted ©o their report at the time it was made, something more than mere rivalry would have been avoided. The whole question of federation was then discussed, and then it was thought by the Committee that it was not too soon to take action in the matter. All he could say now was said by the Com mittee of the Victorian Assembly within one year after the introduction of res ponsible Government If anyone would take the trouble to examine the records of the different colonies they would find, without any excessive exercise of imagi nation, that in the very first year of their freedom the thoughts of the very ablest men were turned to the question of federation. In 1883, he was much struck with the views of Mr Service, who then had in contemplation, as he had now, the establishment of a Federal Parliament, Thirty-three years ago Legislative Union was spoken of, and Mr Service, beyond all doubt, en tertained exactly the same idea. With regard to the Federal Council, they must not lose sight of the. process of development going on through the in strumentality of that body, which had doubtless made itself thoroughly con versant with the present great question,

j The necessary dcv-^pm^nt ot ideai f had been «viagoh; but iurther that » that, all the Jements of national life hac j increased, and there was not one colon] 5 which had not felt a wonderful stirau . lus from education and refined manners i Udder which they were not only now ir f a condition to favorably compare with » the other nations in the world.but would • contrast creditably with them. If in vestigation could be made it would be > found that through their educational f system there were more readers ol »I higher literature in every thousand than ' in a similar section of the population in | Great Britain. Through the foresight | and creative skill of the working people they had now reached a very high state ' and were not behind in all the higher, civilisation of society. According to the best information, the population of Australasia was now 3,842,800 souls, of whom 2,656,000 were in Victoria, I New South Wales, and Queensland. He remembered the severance of Queensland and Victoria and con sidered it as the advancement of a national thought. As showing what population had done, the value of the industrial products of a single year from local industries was no less than If they took the private wealth of ibe people, not including the public wealth in railways or lands, but merely that owned by free citizens, they would find they would compare favor ably with the great European nations. For instance he would compare them with the five great nations. In Austria the amount per head was £16 i6s,< in Germany 14s, in France £2$ 14s, in the United Kingdom 4s, in the United States while the Australian wealth of the nation aver* aged jQ/fi per head. In reality, they stood at the head of the world in the distribution of wealth. It was not that there were a few families revelling in luxury while the mass of the people was poverty stricken. It was evenly distributed, and in that respect Aus tralasia stood at the head of the world. That they had progressed rapidly was well known, and had hardly to be referred to. Let them see what this peace-loving people had done for the defence of their shores. Their united army numbered 31,291 men, and this army was constituted with due regard to military service, and they had it distributed among the principal sections from a military aspect. Not only had they grown in numbers to an extent which would amply justify them in thinking of building themselves into a nation, but they had wealth, and it was impossible to exist were it not for the well directed energies which created'it. No country in the world was so wealthy as Australia. Systems of education had been brought into existence embracing the children of all families. Under the asgis of Government education' was carried to an extent which, if it had not done so much would be a marvel to themselves. Making allowance for mis takes, they had done things to such an extent as to provoke the admiration ot other countries. If they were fitted in 1857 to enter into federation how much more were they now. If not, "when would they be ? It was obligatory on the people who would contend that they were not ripe now, to cay when tha colonies would be ready, and in what degree they would be better off. 'Jhey bad been told that there was a lien in the path, but there was none whatever that had to be overcome ex cepting in the elements created by them selves. The principle of Divine goodness which exists and overrules the world has created this fair land for a grand experiment in human life. There was no lion or dffficulty before them. The path was as plain and bright as their genial sun, and without impediment. If they were only wise they could agree among themselves, it they acknow ledged kinship and subordinated all lower considerations, to build up a power which would command more respect in the world than any other thing which could be accomplished in so short a time, than any great achieve ment ever accomplished before. They could not, however, become a nation and cherish any provincial object that was inconsistent with that nationality. They had grown in population ans wealth, as he had proved, and had Wonderfully shown the capacity of self government. He would try and prove how much better the people would be with federation. Numberless sources of wealth would be developed by one powerful government which were got likely to be touched by any provincial government at present. Notably there were trie fisheries, of which none now knew the extent. Under one manage ment they would be developed to an extent not likely in any other way. Then there was the lighting and the survey of the coasts, which would be better accomplished. The means of communication would be greatly ad vanced under a uniform power of central government. There were many other things to be considered. They could not hope to be free from molestation from outside. He prayed that Aus tralia would for ever remain at peace, but much as they might desire it, they knew that when nations were at war there was only one law, that of force. (Received February 11 12.58 p.m.) Melbourne, February 11.

Sir Henry Parkes said that what was Required, it seemed to him, was a central Government to frame Jaws by which the whole group should be governed, with an executive body with full powers to administer such laws under a carefully framed constitution. If the example of America should be a warning that states bad. under an act of federation, attempted to work with out a proper constitution but had utterly failed, nothing short of a complete con stitution would serve the purpose they had in view in Australia, and he would repeat that America bad failed alto gether in trying to live as merely con federate states. These states grew in papable of Government until at length

it was predicted by Washington that

they would fall victims to the first foreign enemy that made war upon them. It was not until this was shown to be the case that: they combined to form a Government under which they could live in happiness, peace and security. It was a struggle for sovereign power in the States which brought their union about.' The complete nature of that union could be seen in the cir cumstance that a man waa free tq walk through any parts of the States as he was in the streets of New York or Boston..

t That country had, it was true, imposed \ taxes—in some cases severe taxes— (upon commodities'from ' the ';outside j world, but between any two places within the territory there was not »

s \ single Custom bouse, and from one epd 1f of the country to tbe other trade was i free as air. He was one of those who 7 believed, so far as his judgment went, - —and he had some experience—that it , would be simply playing at legislation, 1 if it were attempted to create a Federal » Government without the power which 1 properly belonged to such a Govern - ment. He was as anxious as anyone ; could be to preserve the rights and privileges of the great colony of New South Wales, indeed he would be ashamed to go back to the colony which had always treated him with such kindness, if he felt that he had not taken every precaution to guard her interests. But a Federal Go vernment fully armed fwith plenary power in matters of defence, tariff and all cognate subjects in respect of all the functions of a national Government must have power to build ships and enlist soldiers, and in many other ways exercise the powers of a supreme Government. It might not be wise but this national Government should ibe, accompanied by state or provincial legislatures but it should be decided, from the very first that a complete Government fitted to perform the] highest functions of nations should be formed. He did not know the feelings of the conference ; he had not been in com munication with any members, as ,he desired to attend with mind untram melled even in thought, and to meet the representatives of other colonies on fair and open ground, with the one great object of resolving themselves into a nation, and regulating and defining the rights of their several colonies. It was their bounden duty to see to this, for ho federal government could exist with satisfaction and with power sufficient for its high purpose unless held in harmony with what was justly due to the, several colonies. He asked the members, to. bear in mind that they were there as representatives of the whole people of Australia, and he asked them to remember that there was growing up in these colonies a native element, and in that new wave of life which would shortly' overwhelm them they might expect to see rising up a generation better perhaps than they and wiser than they. The union of the Australian colonies was a thing that so commended itself to the most farseeing of those who had come from other lands—which bo intertwined itself with the life of the rative born—that nothing could pos sibly stay the progress of that federation. He trusted that they had not entered upon consideration of the question too soon. He trusted that they would make no mistake, but he did not see how it was possible for them to shut their eyes to the fact that one duty, at all events,' was to ask the Parliaments of the different colonies to consider whether or not the time has come. He submitted I the resolution at a time when he was bound to confess that he had not strength to treat it in the way he would wish to treat it. I

Sidney, February IX

Sir Samuel Griffiths said that there must be a complete Federal Government for Australia. Whether or not that federation would include New Zealand was a matter for further discussion. The question was how far could they get the support of their respective Parliaments and peoples. He did not thinks it indi cated any disrespect to the Federal Council or those composing it to propose to give effect to what they proposed. If they had the chance of doing so there were many things which they could do. There were many obstacles or what ap peared to be such, but any federation they could bring about was better than no federation at all. Those who took part in creating the Federal Council had no reason to ba ashamed of their labors. It was a step towards something better so far as was then possible. He ad mitted that federation without fiscal union would be unsatisfactory,

DISTRICT COURT.

ASHBURTON—TUESDAY.

(Before his Honor Judge Ward,)

IN BANKRUPTCY.

In re K. W. Osbobnb.

Motion for writ of attachment.

Mr Oaygill for the Deputy Official Assignee; Mr Kippenberger for Mr MoOonnel, against whom the order was" soaght, This wih an application on the part of the Deputy Cfflsial Assignee in the bank rupt estate of JS. W. Gsborne that a writ of attachment Issue against Robert Mo* Oonnel for his oontempt In not obeying an order of the Court, dated December 9, 1889, to dellvee up oettaln goods and chattels, arid to acooont for others which had been sold under a bill of sale, Osborne to MoOonnel, whfoh the Oonrt had ruled was void as against the Assignee. Argument waa heard last Court day, and his Honor now gave his decision as follows :—The circumstances of this cine, so far as required for the purposes of the present decision, may be btie&y stated aa follows :—At the date of Oaborne's bank* raptpy McOonnel held a bill of eale over his ohattels, on the faoe of it void against (he Deputy Official Assignee. Altee the bankruptcy McOonnel took possession of those chattels under cover of the bliJt of male. The Deputy Official Assignee then moved to have the bill of sale declared void, tfadgment wee given deola/Ing that the bill of sale must bp held as unregla tered,and therefore void against theDepaty Official Assignees. After the motion had been made and while j adgmeot was pending MoOonnel sold the chattels and applied the proceeds to his own purposes. An order waa fizade, after accounts taken, that Me- Connall should pay over those proceeds to the Deputy Offiolal Assignee. This he did not do, and the present motion Is to attach him for d'sobedienee to the order of Court. It has been decided in several oisaa that no attachment will issue against a debtor for simple disobedience of an

ordinary order of Oonrt to pay money. But the present case was fa effaot fought under the Imprleocment for Debt Aboli tion Aotj it being contended on behalf of the Daputy Official Assignee that &{q» Oonnel must be held, anuei* tne above recited olronmatftnoes to have received the Jjrloa of the chattels Bold by him in « fiduciary capacity, and consequently to bo txcepted from tbe ltntnqnlty from fm prieonraeut conferred by the Aot on ordi nary debtors. With thfa contention lam unable to concur. McOonnel took thece chattels at fir»t under b oUlra of right however shadowy. By the decision de claring that claim Invalid It seems to me • tbit b9 wm adjudged to bo « treHpuier

[ ab initio 'nd I cat sot sen how the eonver- I aion of th j ohat elo Into oaah ot nveeted I him into & tebstce. It wab simply 'an r aggravation of the origin il trespass, a I ttOJt impudent one, vo doubt. There Is a singular lack of canes ii point, bat one has been cited (in re Bali) which shows how i far the Courts in England are prep wed to go in refusing attachments. Jn tbis case a solicitor bad received morjeys on behalf of bis client, and had diaobeyed an order of Court dhec ing him to pay them over. Tbe facts were not disputed 1 nd no ezenso wae offered by the solicitor, but the motion for attaching him was dismissed. As the English Act abolishing imprison. 1 ment for debt contains the fourth sub section of clause S of our own Aot of 1874 on the same subject it seems to me that the English judged somewhat strained the Act in their rei'ua&l. In the present oaie, an affidavit filed by MoOonnel shows that he has not had means to pay over the sum ordered to the Deputy Offioial Assignee since the making of tbe oidet, and the motion for attachment will therefore be dismissed. Coats allowed £5 5a and disbursements, to be deducted from amount ordered to be paid by MoOoanel to the Deputy Offioial Assignee.
