If you askthe person raising this objection wherein he finds our system of govemment 'ob- jectionablei he could not tell you. If there are any settlers from the Unit- ed States. who do not like our sys« tem of government, the explanation probably arises from the fact that they do not feel that they are gov~ erned at all. There are no political hoses who run things to suit them- ever-v tum. 'A man pays his taxes, every turn. A man pay: um m..- votes or not_just as he wishes, and for the rest of the 'time, so long as he behaves himself. he is‘ not conscious ‘ that there is any government. There are probably no people in the world who are less touched by the mac‘nin. cry of government than the people of Canada. It is literally true, that! i! a man observes the laws of the land, he may go on from 'day to day and perty in danger, or when he is so foolish as not to respect the‘ life, rights and property of others. what there is a. government. but that it is a mighty vigorous one, with a far year after year and not reauy now from experience that there is any government at 31‘ in the country.

The whole tone of the discussion of this great and most important question in the Par- liament of the Methodist Church in session at Victoria has been such as to increase very greatly the hopeful- ness of those who believe that the benefits of Church Union would be many and varied.
