There wers then tn -ail British North America -only 268$ papers, of which twelve- were in Newfoundlabid. At the end of 1891 these had increased to io44i, including New- foundiand, which now has i i. In 1864, Manitoba had but one paper, sow it bas ,5 ,British Columbia had 3, now it bas 33; then the North West Territories had not a single one, though now they have t9.
