Aithougli the reduced postal rates have onîy been in operati on for six months, there arc alroady indications flot only of the bonefit accuring to the communitY at large-which were nover seriously questioîsed but also of the ac- cnracy 0f ithe the Postmaster Generals predictions that the increase in business which would foliow, would very mater- ially reduce the throatoned excess of expendituro over recoipts, if indeed it did not wipe it ont altogether. The Toronto World, a thick-and-tbin Con- servative Journal, thus refers to the workin g of the new rates under the caption -Two-cent postage a Snccess." "It will undonbtodlv be found, atter a year or two's triai, that a two-cent irate for letters wiil produce as large a rev- enue as the former three-centrate. The receipts under the reduced tariff have already exceected the estimnate of the Postmaster General., and the probabili- tics are that the deficit caused by the reduction wil ho completely wiped ont in the course of a couple of years.' OUR DEEPENEI) WVATERWAYS. The openin2: of the Sonlanges Canal noext month will complote the deep waterways down the St. Lawrence Riv- er and roduce the cost cf carrying wheat front the western fields to the sea port just about one half. The value of this te Canadian shipping interests cannot bo over-estimated, fo ras one Chicago papor declares, "'the cest cf transport- ing lake ireiglît to tide water will ho re- duced beyond the pessibulity of profitable competition by any other existing route." It-is generally recognized in the markets cf the world that the price of wheat is fixedat Liverpool and con- sequently ail that is saved on the cost of transportation goes into the producer's pooket. The statoment is made that tie added returus te the farmers cf the Northwost for the single item of wheat alono wouid annually amount to $6,- 000,000 cf which our own farmers would secure their share. The wisdom cf the Laurier Government theroforo, ln hurrying on the work which lias' drag-î ged along se many years under their prodocessors needs ne argument to establish, A 1%»EAS ON ABLE CONCESSION. The Government lias decided uponi au important ameudment te the Intercol onial Grand Trunk Railway agreement,i which wîll entirely remove wlatever appearance cf justification there may have been for the Opposition critieism that the proposed 9 ear lease wonld - give the Grand Trunk and its American connections, practical control of the business cf the Intercolonial for that NEW ONTAIUO VISITEIJ. The famous Algoma Legisiative Tour le now a matter of history and the tour- ists have reGurned te their homes, but it will be long before the benefits there- of, botli te the participants and te the district visited, will cease te have their effeot. The country through which the trip was taken is as littie known as any part cf the province., for even these whose business it is te kLow the coun- try,-the legisiators who make its laws aud the pressmen who write its history- founfi that their knowiedge sa super- ficial and inaccurate. For nearly two weeks ;he party traveiled by rail and water ver hnnd- rods cf miles cf territorv, t rougli dis- tricts containiug thousauds cf acres tf splendid agricuitural land, and huud- reds c f square miles cf mizieral country holding millions cf dollars wortli cf many of the most valuable prcducts cf the maine, instead cf a barren desolate waste cf rock and muskey (or swamp) where nething cf service te man conl d ho produced, they fouud, vast tracks cf conntry' capable of growing wheat, liay and vegetables lu abufldauce and favcred with a climate exactly suitable for their production. Dotted aiong the rente in districts wher,,s ice and snow is popularly supposed t, hobd undisputed possession almost the year round, they f ound thriving homesteads and prosper- eus farms. Here the hardy and indus trions pioncersettier was living iu com- fortand ceutcntmout, while interspers- ed with these were ricli tracts cf miner- ai baud, wliere the mining Phaft had been sunk and the liusy stampiug miii was wrestling the, precions metals from mother earth. Ail this was beiug doue in spite cf iu- surmounitable difficulties-but difficul- ties which. arose net from any inceýn- pbetenessin the work nature had done, but in the lack cf cuterprise on the part cf man te take advantage cf that work. Iu that country cf immense distances, far removed from the centres cf com- merce tlserc are little or 1no means cf transportation; the widcly separated settiers, and the far removed mines are withont mieans cf communication, oe with anAther and with the outside worbd. Railways and: highways are wauted, rivers need bridges, and rapids must be made navigable, th(, country is there tcemniug wi th possibilities, but it is eut cf reacli. The cause of the neglect te provide afl this is primariby, lack cf the kuowledgdcof the necesc;ity. The pur- pose cf the tour was te remeve this ig- norance, and now that the legisiatoîs know the facts and the pressare enabi- cd te disseminate that' knowldege ameng tLie people, thcre is gced hope that much cf the needed work may ho underta, slowly and by degrees per- liaps, lu 'oinparison te the great need, but stili it cau ho commenced, and an immense impetus givon te tho develop- ment cf as ricli a section cf new and comparatively unoccupied territory as exists in the Dominion to-day. »- The excursion was liappily conceived and admirably carried eut, and the weathcr from start to finish was ail that coubd ho desired. The choice of route was well made, lu view cf the purposo for which the trip was uindertaken. At Sauit St. Marie, which was thie practical starting point, the tcurists obtaiued some idea cf the necessity cf a railwav te open up the»couutry runuing north towards James Bay, The trip to Silver Meuntain Mine, back cf Port Arthur, gave a pcep iste theinineral resources cf that district, while north cf Fort William the ricli agricultural stretches of the Slate River Valley afforded many a maguificent object lesson, cf what iu- dustricus and intelligent farmiug coubd do, and this was irepeated at Dryden, ou the way te Rat Portage. The sec- ond week cf the trip speut lu the min- iug districts cf the Lake cf tihe Woeds and gainy River, and amoug the farms skirtiýsg tihe Canadian banks of tisat noble streamo, was a revelation as startt iug as it was gratifying.
