One afternoon was entirely taken up with a debate on Yukon matters which was simply a reminisCence of the no- torionsdiscussions of last session. The leader nf the Opposition introduced the discussion with a rehearsal of a number of the old fmnilinrcharges Sir Hibbert Tupper threw mound so indiscrimin- ately last summer, but the only eï¬â€˜ect uf the debate, beyond demonstrating the fact after six months more hunting up evidence nothing further has been discovered but another anonymous letter writer, was to give an oppor- tunity to the Minister of the Interim- to demonstrate the care, and business- like attention which had been given to the regulations governing the admin- istration of affairs in that t'u‘riturv.

Considerable time andala-i'ge amount of public money was wasted last session by the Opposition in a desperate attempt to unearth crookedness in connection with these matters. but after examin- ing nearlya hundred Witnesses they were no further on than they were at the start. At, that time the Govern- ment granted every possible facility for a. thorough investigation, and again on Tuesday intimated their anxiety to assist in the proper admin- istration of juctice if any wrongdoing had occurred; but it is greatly to he feared that the Opposition is not. half as anxious to carry out a ligitimate in- quiry as they are to convey the idca to’the electors that the Liberal party has been implicated in corrupt election practices. regardless of whether there is any evidence to justify such an im- pression or not.

Schemes for the erection of smelting and blast furnaces and nickel reduction Works, are being developed in various parts of the country, as for example in the city of Hamilton where a Wealthy syndicate has been organized for the manufacture of nickel in quantities which in theicoursebf a year will in that one concern alone exceed the total output of the present time. SlMlLIAR ENTERPRISES ARE UNDER WAY at Sault Ste. Marie and other places. The importance of this is greatly en- hanced by the fact that for all practi- cal purposes Canada and New Caledon- ia are the only two countries in the world where nickel has been discover- ed in any quantity, and the demand for it is rapidly increasing. One re- sult of that increase last year was to raise the price about five cents a pound with the result of further ad- \‘ances during the present year. The production of this very necessary arti- cle has attracted much attention in the great manufacturin centers of the. old world and the hngineering News (London. Eng.) in an article discussing the situation, concludes that the great- est bar to the increased cm loyinent of nickel steel by engineers, )e-yond a few cases Where great quantities are not required and where cost does not count, is the questionable ability of present known mines to produce the. requisite supply at reasonable prices. Sr. IIIâ€"Pearl Pearson, Percy Farrell. pletely in the debate on the Address‘ that they were bound to talk on some- thing, whether there was necessity or not. To all intents and purposes the House was unanimous, and had gentle- men in the Opposition benches who spent so much time in protesting their loyalty been thoroughly genuine in the position they assumed, it would scarcely have been necessary to so vehemently contend for that which most people would have, been prepared to take for granted. The French pro- verb, “S’excuse, s’accuse,†Would ap- pear to fit their case. LET WELL ENOUGH ALONE. In the cmu-se of an editorial on the grOwth of Canada the other day, the Toronto Globe briefly sums up the sit- uation as follows :â€"“ The truth is that Canada. is doing very well. and all that is necessary is for the alarmists, honest and dishonest, to leave it alone. There is not a British statesman who would not be ready to sin his nunc dimittis if every part of t to British Empire were in as sound and prosperous a con- dition. Industrially there is life and hope everywhere. The fertile prairie plains of the west are. being rapidly settled. The development of the min- eral wealth of British Columbia has become an old story. Ontario and Quebec are realizing the extent of their resources m mine. and forest. The pulp and paper industry are re- ceiving a stron impulse through the contracts for tie supply of paper to Several London journals. The foreign trade of Canada for the seven months ending with January was $227,653,842, a gain of $31,036,470 over the seven months; corresponding of the previous year, which would mean a gain of $50,000,000 for the entire year. The other day one of the English papers said the. word colony was no longer applicable to such countries as Canada and Australia, that they Were in reali- ty nations; and the British Empire is distined to become a league ofselfâ€"gov- erning nations, free and equal, and each taking its due share of duty and of power.†CANADA‘S NICKEL MONOPOLY.
