PLEASED WITH THE OUTLOOK OF THE YEAR. ness. Desire to Have a Perpetual Source of Income From the Forests of the Provinee--Provision For an Afflicted Class--New Moas- ures to be Introduced. Jan. 8.-At the opening, the Ontario legislature the address from the throu Torgpto, to-day, of following was read : Mr. speaker and gentlemen of the le gislgtive assembly ; I take great pleasure in again meet tatives of the jature we have visit from their royal highnesses, th duke and dwshess of Cornwall York. 1 was greatly pleased to no- tice the hearty reception given to their royal highnesees, in every part of Ontario, which the limited time at their, disposal permitted them to «is- it. The gracious manner in which they received the expressions of loy- alty which their presence evoked and the interest they maniiested in everf matter pertaining to the prosperity of the province will, I trust, strength- on our attachment to the empire, which they so .worthily represented, and in which we, as a province, are so deeply interested. 1 congratulate you on the continued prosperity of the lumbering industry which gives employment to so many of our people and from which such a large part of our revenue is derived. The permanent crown forest re- serves amounting to over a million and a hali acres, have been carefully protected during the past season, and no loss of any conséquence from fires or other cpuses has occurred. Steps are being taken to further increase these reserves in order if possible to establish a perpetual source of in- come from the forests of the province. The mining industry of Ontario is making steady and satisfactory pro- gress. More capital and labor are now being employed in mining operations than at any previous time, and the output o the chief mineral | products of the province is rapidly and steadily increasing in both quan- tity and value. The work of settling the agricultur- al lands of the crown has been suc cessfully prosecuted dmring the year. ' SA] Se es es "fagtbry to know that those who leave the older settlements of the province to obtain homesteads or employment in newer fiolds now realize that they van find unexeelled opportunitiel within our own boundaries. The adequate care and maintenance of the insane of our population still engages the attention of the govern ment. Additional acconunodation for 150 patients has been furnished by the completion of new asylum buildings at Cobourg. This will relieve, for She time being, the existing congestion of the asylums of the province, but fear you will be again called upon at no distant period, to consider the ad- visability of making further provision for the accommodation of the increas. ing number of this afflicted class. I am glad to learn that very satis inctory progress has been my in the promotion 'of teéthnical education and "that in several of our towns and and suitable equipment for the purposes generously provided, and also that the system of travelling HK jes for the newer is of the i provision was made a year ago, met with general approval. ~The, compilation of the imperial sta- tutes in force in the provines of On- tario under the provisions of chapter fIl, R.8S.0., has been completed and embodied in what will constitute vol wme TH of the revised statutes, This pilation with necessary legisla tion will be & itted for your con: sideration, and | have no doubt will be with great favor by the profession and the public. year just closed has been ove of the construction of a railway from North Bay to lake Temiscamingue, in i sentation for the vorih: svince, the ss ies and extra: creaser ern districts of the sesoment Inws, the provincial corporations. The report of the roval appointed to revise the laws of the province and of the several departments Ji¢ service will be laid before you in due course. The ¢stimates for the current year, with as great to economy as is consistent with effi- cient service and the growing wants of the province, will ise wybmitted for consideration at an early date. ---------- SEVEN REBELS SENTENCED. . -- Lord Kitchener Commuted The Death Sentences.
