The Ontario Government has' Ishown itself thoroughly abreast of the times in its railway policy. It has always been quick to anticipate public sentiment and alert to imple- ment it when that sentiment was “ The reason of our loyalty is ob- vious. We are the oldest inhabitants in Canada; we have deep roots in this country; this is our hon*e. When we leave it to go .to a foreign land we do not say that We are go- ing home until we are returning to Canada. Now, the charge goes further. It says that we' leuld' dei -sire to fall back undér the French .fiag. This is an insult to 0111:? in‘tels ligenee. Why should we desire to '{abandon our freedom, our autonomy, 3011f absolute control of our Ocivn ‘al'- fairs, to return to --what? To the status of a French colony, ahieh'ihas but the empty honor of :1 represent- ative in the Parisian Parliament? We have here a self governing colony, we elect our own members of Parlia~ ‘ ment, do our own business as we please. And we are expected to throw that to the winds, abandon it, and mum to a sy5tem in which we would have no cantrol of our own affairs, would be governed by a non responsible Government, as the French Colonies are i It is absolutely preposterous. Let any newspaper man go through the Province and she Will not find a single French- Canadian so foolish as to think of ever changing our allegiance as we have it today.” In replying to the toast “ Ontario,” Mr. Arch; Campbell made an excel- lent speech. He touched on many, pointsand spoke at some length of the transportation question, the new lines which were being projected in- to New Ontario, and the Canada National Railway. Mr. Campbell referred to the lamentable fact that the huge expenditure by Canada up on her ~canals had been largely thrown away, for of 300,000,000 bushels of wheat sent from the west only some 40,000,000 bushels went by the Canadian canals. They should so improve their transporta- tion facilities that at least 100,000,000 bushels should go to the sea by way of Toronto and Montreal. The Young Liberals of Toronto are never backward in showing where they stand when attempts are made to stir up racial and religions preju- dices in this country. At their anâ€" nual meeting Monday evening one of the principal speakers was Senator Dandurand of Montreal. He re- sponded to the toast, " Canada,” in a patriotic speech, which was a. com- plete refutation of the cries of French domination in Canada. He spoke of the loyalty of the French population in Quebec, and gave many reasons why they should be satisfied and contented under the English system of government. The words of the ’ French senator created a feeling of enthusiasm among the guests, and the tone of the meeting was all in ’i'avor of unity in Canada. The speaker quoted a paragraph from a *recent number of The Evening News in which it was hinted that there could be neither peace nor unity in this country “until we force the French-Canadians to adopt a differâ€" ent view of their destiny, or until they convert us by conquest into a French dependency. There is n<t :room in Canada, wide as it is, for a loyal English population and a, French one which gives its allegiame tmld France, and is waiting for the opportunity to throw off the easy yoke of the present masters.” Ml‘. Dandurand showed the absurd- ity of the alleged disloyalty, and in the course of an able speech said :â€" RICHMOND HILL. April 11. 1901 Changerâ€"H. C. Bailey. Ohunge- Imperial Ull Co.

I I As the law has stood ior a number ' i of years past High Schools in towns separated from the county, Toronto Junction for example, have been 3 drawing large grants from the coun. i ty the same as those High Schools in the county. During the present ses- . sion Mr. John Richardson, member 3 for East York, has introduced at Act 5 whiclrwhile not cutting off the grant ' will require the outside towns to con- ‘ tribute their proper share of taxes. The principal sections in Mr. Rich- ardson‘s proposed bill are as follows: Ripans Tnbulea cure torpld 11m. Ripans Tabules cure constmation. Ripans Tabules cue headache. railways need capital to build them. Without discouraging capital. the Ross Government has kept in mind the fact that railways are public utilities, and ought some day to be the property of the people if they so choose. Some of the provinces of the Dominion are not yet in favor of taking into their hands the public- ownership of railways, although they appear to be swinging round grad- ;ually in that direction. As far as .this province is concerned, however, ‘ there is a growing sentiment for pub- lic ownership and Government con- trol. During the present session the Ontario Government has decided in favor of investigating the question of Government ownership, and if the investigation is satisfactory the Telliiseaiiiingue Railway will likely be builtfland operated by the Gov- ernment. “ It may not be wise to “be I too hastyéin the matter, but there is evidently a growing feeling in favor : of Government ownership.
