Of this the Government issued £29,300,000 in London up to May, 1915. These loans are still outstanding. Afterwards loans had to be made in the United States and Canada. In the United States the Dominion Government made 11 loans, totalling $280,873,000, and of this $151,007,000 is still outâ€" standing, the rest having been redeemâ€" ed. The Government has still to meet a loan of 5 per cent. for $76,â€" 006,000 and a five and a half per cent. loan for $75,000,000. The $10,000,000 loaned at intervals from the Bank of Montreal branch in New York has all been redeemed. The loans in Canada include the following, temporary loans from the Bank of Montreal at Ottawa: $15,â€" 000,000, since redeemed; two bond loans issued September 1, 1916, one at 3%, per cent. for $12,404,678, of which $2,000,000 is still to pay, and one at 4% per cent. for $97,207,351, of which $65,207,351 is outstanding.

A despatch from Ottawa says:â€" Bolshevism is slowly but surely dying in England. Free speech is killing it. The Old Country labor man is learnâ€" ing the unsoundness of the doctrine, not from those who seek to discredit the movement, but from the radicals themselves. Labor is becoming disâ€" gusted with the Reds and is showing that disgust by repudiating the moveâ€" ment. So states Tom Moore, president of the Trades and Labor Congress, Canaâ€" da‘s Labor representative on the Inâ€" ternational Labor Congress held in England under the auspices of the League of Nations during the past two months, who has just returned to Ottawa. Bolshevist soapâ€"box orators abound in Hyde Park, he said, and to a Canaâ€" dian, who has followed the Winnipeg trial, come in the nature of a shock. Soviets for the British are openly adâ€" vocated. Literature is openly sold in the streets, which, if found in the posâ€" session of a person living in this counâ€" try, would mean a term of imprisonâ€" ment. If the agitators confine themâ€" selves to speech they are in no danger of interference, but any attempt at reâ€" volutionary action is quickly nipped in the bud. He cited a publication, edited by Sylvia Pankhurst, which advocates "revolutionary international socialism, the ending of capitalism and Parliaments and the substitution of workers republics." This is sold wildspread in London and causes |lime or no comment. Mr. Moore intiâ€" mated there might be a little lesson Iin this for the Dominion. . The whole standard of living among the labor classes of Britain has changed, he asserted. Wages are on a par with those of Canada and the cost of living is about the same.

ONTARIO ARCHIVES in Year NEW CAPITAL FOR OTTOMAN EMPRE IF TURKS ARE SHUT OUT OF CONSTANTINOPLE. Choice of New Centre of Sulâ€" tanate Lies Between Brousâ€" sa and Konia. The question whether Constantiâ€"« nople is to remain the seat of the Turkish Sultanate has been the source of a ceaseless. polemic in the columns of the Eurogan press for several long months. Jt is a question of tremendous import, involving wideâ€" spread national, religious and trade interests, and, some would have it, the whole future attitude of Islam toward the western European powers. If, however, it is finally decided that the Turk, having obtained possession of the city of the Golden Horn in vicâ€" tory, must now lose it in defeat, it is generally conceded that the sclection of the new Ottoman capital will lie between Broussa and Konia. The former is the more logical cholce, owing to its close proximity to the more civilized world; but Konia may be chosen as a place of retreat and security, buried away in the Turkish homeland, and well removed from extraneous intrigues and influences. Broussa, like most of the cities of any size in Asia Minor, has a history. It is said to have been founded on the suggestion of Hannibal, and, under the name of Prusa, or Prussa, ii was the capital of Bithynia, whose inhabiâ€" tants, for their part, were emigrants from Thrace. Bithynia survived for several centuries, until Nicomedes N bequeathed it to the Romans in 74 B. C. The Turkish comnections with the city dates from 1329, when it was captured by Orkhan, the chicf of the Ottomans. ‘They, of course, lost it to the Mongols in 1402, but subseâ€" quently regained it. It has more or less remained in their possession until the present day, and has served them for many years as their capital. Surrounded by Olive Groves. The city is pleasantly situated, in the midst of a vast expanse of vine« yards and olive groves which sorcad their verdure over hills and da‘es for miles around, at the base of the Anaâ€" tolian Olympus. The classic monâ€" tain, Olympus, is, of course, in Maces donia, within a few miles of Salon‘ca. The traveler from Constantinople takes an antiquated packet boat from \ the Calata Quay, and, steaming past the island in the sea of Marmora, is deposited at the little seaport of Monâ€" dania. _ There is considerable moveâ€" ment at Moudania, for there the black olives and the grapes produced on the hinterland are packed in primit‘ve | fashion for export. The journey may hbe resumed cither by train or carriage. The vo tures are rickety, and the animals more apoloâ€" gies for horseflesh, but they neveribeâ€" less cover the twentyâ€"six miles as quickly as the train, so it is preferable to take the very excellent highway and view the glorious panoram rather than suffer the discomfiturs :‘ the trip by ratlroad. Approach to Broussa itse‘f can be readily detected, for the city goves off in exaggerated degree that pungzeont effluvia which is &‘rarl( ristie of all Turkish towns. Nevertholess, one soom becomes accustomed to this peculiar atmosphere, for there is much of interest to occupy one‘s aitention,. Few traces of Bithynian or Roman civilization rema‘n, but the Turk is here in all his glory, and there is one hotel at which one can live in comâ€" parative comfort. _ The native silk industry well repays investigation, come of the best Turkish examples being produced here, and the neighâ€" borhood _ abounds â€" with _ mineral springs. Yet Broussa has immense poss|li= ties. It is a typical Turkish city, the site of some striking exomples of Isâ€" lamic architecture and the home of sacred relies which endear it to the Moslem world. Jt will be in keep n@ with historical evolution if it acain bocomes the capital of the ‘Workish Blate One of the primary objects of those who are engaged in promoting more adequate protection of wild life is to stop the destructive activities of the market bunter. Mr. F. Bradshaw, Chief Game Guardian of Saskatcheâ€" wan, in speaking before The National Conference on Wild Life Protection, held in Montreal in February by the Commission of Conservation, made & forceful appeal on behaif of the proâ€" hibition of the sale of game. . Mr. Bradshaw gave the following instance of the manpner in which wild li%e reâ€" sources are depleted by those who hunt as a means of livelibood instead they hunted as JODZ 2% 4 u006 TWt mained to be sheot.

"Some ten or twelve years ago & family of ray acquaintance homeâ€" steaded on the south shore of lake Johnson, Saskatchewan. This lake at that time was a sportsman‘s paradise, and is still considered to be a choice husting ground for waterfowl. There were four adult males in the family, all excellent shots, and as soon as the hurting season opened they started their deadly fusilade, and from day» \ug:n until dark for «‘x days a week Market Hunting Must be hunted The native silk iys â€" investigation, Turkish examples e, and the neighâ€" with _ mineral
