A bandit is sentenced to forty lash es and fifteen years' penal servit ude. He is a young man, twenfy- one years of age; his crime that of robbing a bank. Vagrancy is unishable with a three months' imprisonment; drunkenness first offence, $10, second offence $200, third offence improsenment. Can- ada sadly needs a revision of its criminal code, and along with it the dismissal of some of its judges and magistrates, for these latter are the creators of the criminal classes here, and therefore a dang- er to the community as a whole. Canadian journalism expresses no more advanced views oa 'science, literature and art than our grandmothers and grandfa hers held, and sometimes less advanc- ed. The Editors will willingly iopen their columns to all and :sundry who will contribute artic- les on such subjects as "Do Un- :baptized Children Go to Heaven?" jand "Would a Nation of Atheists :be a Nation of Thieves?" The things that count, the live things that make life so interesting and really worth living, are seldom if ever touched upon. "Evolution" is heresy, co-operation aims at the destruction of the capilists class, Socialism is piffle, the League of Nations is a League of Lunatics, etc.~. The fact is that Canada is one of the most backward cour- tries in the world. This ought not to be very surprising, since the land attracts the uncultured classes, and everywhere reflect: the ignorance of the population in general. It has ben said that the position of the working-man in Canada is infinitely better than that of his fellow in the Old Country. But is it? The majority of Canad'ans live in perpetual debt. The curse sof the country is its seasonable work, when wages are comparitiv- ly high. It is then that the Can- adian worker will begin to "buy" 'his "house, his motorcar, his . clothes, his furniture, and he does it all on the instalment system.
