Still the tact remains,and it is even chronicled in someoi'the less prejudiced opposition journals, that ‘according to Imperial emigration Statistics. Canada is the only country that has received an increase oi British settlers over the previous year, and that increase is not ineonsiderahle. The total exodus of English, Scotch and Irish in 1898 was 140.630 as against 1413.460 oi the previous year. Of these Canada received 17,665 as against 15571 in 1897, while every Other part of the globe showed a decrease ol from 1 to 15 per cent. The Turn of the Tide. There is every indiertion that this is but the commencement ofa remark. ahle turn in the direction of emigration from the Motherland. and within the next few years, thanks to the systema tie efforts put iorward by the Govern- mom. hundreds oi thousands ofBritish- as will turn their faces Westwards, and find homes in the hospitable and ten tile provinces of the great Dominion. Now that these facts are finding their own reputation tor common sense and veracity. that a change will come over the spirit of the editorial columns also. The Ontario Legislature. The second session of the Ontario L-zisluture opened on Thursday and in view ofthe tact that the preliminaries had been disposed ot in the August 3 ssion anticipation was high in the hope that both sides now mean business. T as Government program, as fore. ah Mowed in the Speech from the Tutone, was concise and business like to the Proyircial Government for present use. The excuse made at the time for thus arbitrarily overriding the action of the representatives cf the people in the Lower House was that the money was not wanted for school pulposes, bat to assist the Local 1e,',eyyyt out of alleged flnameial 1iPc"Itieis. Not only was there an i utter absence of even apparent ground in this assertion but. on the contrary. the finanees of the Province were never in better shape. It is no exag- geration to say that, whereas ten years ago when Mr. Greenway took over the I reins of Government from Mr. Norquay 7 and his colleagues, the Province was on the vrrge of bankruptcy and her credit at zero, while urda y she stands A. l in the markets of the world. i Right and Reasmi in the Demand. _ The monies belong to the Province and are simply held in trust by the Dominion.

Moreover the granting of the money asked for Could not possibly cripple the fund, for only 84.500 acres have been sold out of the 2,777,900 acres ol the School reserves, and the value ot the reserve at current. prices would be somewhere in the neiglmorhood of $15,(XX),()00 upon which the annual interest alone would amount tor37h0, oth).

I though it does not purpose any startling legislation. It is disappointing however, after all the noise that has been made by the opposition leader and his followers on the public plutlerm and in newspaper interviews, to find ‘the opposition strengthened as it is in numbers and debating power, as entirely without a policy as .t has bet u in the past, except that ol'uunless and [ purposeless criticism.
