Roii tract Una Nono too favourable to Tho Syndicate. The logic of events 1ms proved that to were not in Butov. Trio coi ii Penny a at present in the position of hot being Able to carry on work without Fui Blier assistance. Such assistance must to forthcoming. It would be in the extreme not Only to the Northwest but to Tho Dominion at Large were the work now to come to n stand still. The opening up of Thia country a essential to the very life of tha confederation. Enormous liabilities have bean already incurred which Tho development of the Northwest Alono Onn enable cauda to Bear. The building of the Road and1 its branches omit be continued t work can be More cheaply More Bat Irac Torilyn Dono by a company than by the the Extension of the font Western for which the Toni pan Honvo in contemplation for nest Lefaou Iii a matter of the most vital importance to the Sal fare of one of the largest most populous sections of the Northwest probably the finest Agri cultural District in Canada. To disappoint Tho residents of Thia District who wont there depending on the Early con Striction of Thia Road have Long in patient expectation would in itself be a matter the whole people of this country have acquired vested interests under the promises held out in connection with the 0. P. B., it would be a Branch of National to allow Thorn to suffer through the inability of the company to carry out its undertakings. We believe thai the people of Canada will look at Tho mutter in this Light Anc Taftt having put. Their to the plough for Tho purpose of opening up the North West they will not now turn Back. The question then to far As they Are Cou corned we Are convinced will be nol we further Omiat the c. P. R., but to w can to Moat effectively assist in in Tho interest of the Dominion 1 i this question to carefully pondered the answer to it will be found to Mak ing such advances As May be Jie Cess for the completion of the work of condition that nil claims i the Way of monopoly shall be Given up at once for Ever by the company. Tim is the one Way out of Tho present difficulty by which All pc ratios the Dominion the Northwest the c. P. R., May escape creditably profitably. There should be no hesitation in following it it is asserted that even had . No monopoly competing roads could not would not to built by private Capi Tal. If this to it fou own that the monopoly is of no Benefit to the a p. It cannot be contended that it Haa not already clone great injury to the country to Nee to them since their interests Ore bound up in the country they should not hesitate therefore about giving it up for a fair consideration. The people of the Northwest Are n Nailer Noily of Thi opinion that they Are deeply wronged by being deprived of the right to charter local where they plea Flo. An agitation has sprung up in consequence will without doubt he continued until All restrictions Are Leino cd. The feeling which gave Rise to this agitation ii till More the itself have created a prejudice against Tho Northwest in Emi Gration centres find any considerable in flux of Ncttloi-3 Tindor existing air Crim Atanoa is not to to anticipated. It Babao lately essential therefore to our further Progress Prosperity that monopoly should to Dono away with so firmly convinced of Thia Are tie people of Tiia country that to fool justified in saying that Thoy will not for any length time Aub Tiitto it. They Are at present anxiously watching Tho course of the government in the Hope that it my be sufficiently Well advised to perceive the necessity for making satisfactory arrange ments of some kind with the company should they to disappointed there Little doubt that the government not in probably the company m Well will have reason to regret having disregarded their Nanie May be Viviin to it will t also in reality to a gift this being the Case Trio country Ali Ould at once secure All that t can As a quid pro quo for any conces Sion it nifty be found necessary to make. If the government decides on adv ageing of the company the amount necessary for the carrying on of their work a we be boo they will they should therefore Lake on assignment of the monopoly in preference to any mortgage or other leu Ritie that May be offered. We say once More then to both the government the c. P. It., that if they make any new arrangement under which the Premont monopoly is to to Oon tinted without taking into consideration the requirements of the now thoroughly aroused people of the Northwest they will find to their sorrow in Tho boar future that they have reckoned without tue ii Host. Our conservative name Sake the Lon Don free press finds a justification for Trio making of further advances to Tho c. P r. In the fact that in a tips gone by Blie grand trunk got an an Advance which the country Lias never Hud occasion to regret though it has never Beon repaid. The inter colonial has Cost about the Money is known to be Well in vested in promoting Intercourse in improving Trade in forming a Strong Long jink in the great Canadian our contemporary the Nail head in toning that these advances not Baon repaid. Whatever the c. P. E. New gets s loan or whatever other j it Isho be hoped that Trio notion of the Board of works in returning the of the tenderer for the improving o main Street menus that for the present nothing is to to done in tie matter of the work. Not tint what main Street re quirus improvement badly enough by because though it is desirable it is by no Means absolutely piece Sisney just now civic expenditure should bit strictly limited to to till , Tho rate payers cannot Gifford to pay for More Anc it will trouble of them to most the taxes required for even so much. It had been supposed that Thore was in Thia Hanks of the proceeds of tile last Debo Turoa act apart specially Foi the purpose of Street improvements. It would Stern however that this is not so it was intimated at the Board of works meeting that the sum is reduced to some indeed it has been hinted that it Piasac Tusly dwindled Dora a Bare fraction of even Thia amount. We will just observe in passing that the real Stutte of this fund cannot he too soon made Public. But even supposing thu City had sufficient Money on hand to pay for this work it would be unwise to use t for the purpose under existing Circum stances. The City stands committed to a 000 piece of egregious Folly in the City Hall contract. We cannot now escape that. Better far apply any Money we have to this purpose than to Iliae it for anything now then be compelled to Issue More debentures to pay for Tho City Hall. Does it Ever occur to the property holders of City that upon anything like a reasonable assessment it would re quire about two per cent to provide in Terest sinking fund civic salaries pay running expenses without one Dollar More being put into improvements5 it is a fact All the Sarno Tho position of the City new is just Sulci that not one Dollar of expenditure should be Mailot except upon absolute necessities. Ii becomes us to take Stock of the situation Devota All the Money we have to paying up existing Obliga not Issue another Bond til times improve nor Lay on cent of taxation that can possibly avoided. Any other course will involve civic ruin at once we us oat the real condition of the City finances should be mad known. Let it be shown immediately a any rate exactly How much to owe Thi Banks by overdrafts wha amount stanch to the City s Cic lit. W Are prepared for something appalling. The tjjsx1s seeker a. Sigh. Sir John Mcdonald said in the How the other Day in dealing with Hie North Weet land regulations not Ono bin Flo honest a Etlor not Botia do immigrant who Haa settled funny one lot has Beau tha free Piess says this is not True but neglects to furnish a Casa in Point our neighbor it till hts the floor out wit some proof Fiat Tho Premier Spula when our contemporary requires proo of any charge us inst tie government should always consult its own files o some seven or eight months ago. If would do this to would be Nared Nadort or less trouble. However not to be be in neighbourly we Bli Jill turn Back for the times to editorial columns of May 17th, 1883, where a Verj pathetic incident of the govern Mon land then in Progress is narrated in the most touching manner. This Wil probably satisfy of Good neighbor s Sou in the matter of for which it i now sighing. The Story which was told in its leading article of the above data under the heading the land sale11 As follows at the Sale of Dominion Yoster Day afternoon a certain Quarter Sale tet was offered when an individual stopped Forth from the stated that lie had squatted on Ibe land had Madi valuable improvements thereon. H was willing to pay tha up sol Price of hoped no Ono would make a higher bid in order tha lie might retain his lurid. The Appeal did not have Tho desired effect for it was knocked Down to another party for per Tore it being understood he Wouk take the entire half Section. Subsequently the latter informed Tho auction Eer that to would Only take the quart or Section on which the had Boon made. He was informed to inc bought the half Section but he said he would not take it the Quarter Section was Tsien put up Fiul a Syndicate rail the Price up to at Shioli figure the individual who had previously purchased became the As a hint by which our neighbor my Boffilo to Coll to mind the editorial in Winch the above ii tory is told we May re Nuiji k that it is Tho same leading article in which the policy of Tho government is described incomprehensible at the suggestion of ignorant or interested our neighbor May not have forgotten that it concludes with the observation that if he cannot prevail agn Insl the nov eminent to Spe Eulator Tho Aqunt Ter can at i want leave the country with a we really fount draw the line at this if our neighbor wants further proof that sir wan not speaking the truth when he said that Nob one single honest Settlor not one single Boha fide immigrant who. Has settled on any one lot has been dispossessed not one Man Haa been to must in Sist that it shall search its own files for Ita Eif. Olf Winnipeg Coal. Sir John Mao clonal a assertion in the House of Coni wms thib Coal Wlinich for Merly brought a ton in Winnipeg is now Belling at 87, is not calculated to raise the Hopes iof tie people of Liis conf try for Betti government while lie continues at to Load of affairs. It Iann Nec Saary to say that Autremont is not Correct. If Coal Ever Otest u ton in Winnipeg it Tor a pry Short space f time exceptional Circum stances. It Hiu Naver sold for the divest Price Yot reached was it now Luul iian been fur some Selling even Saskatchewan Lignite cannot be bought for less Thim the Pronior therefore stands convicted either of wilful falsehood or of crass arid incomprehensible ignorance. It matters Little to the Northwest which to acknowledges himself guilty of. If the first minister is so ill informed that to knows no better thu to Timke state ments of this kind it a riot surprising that our a Faira have been Inis managed in the past it will to Kioto than sur prising if they Are not quite As badly mismanaged in Tho future. Such ignorance can Only be the result of entire in difference. If the statement is a deliberate untruth As it has every appearance of being it holds out still lots of Hope for us. While the Leader of the govern ment can cloak Over his misdeeds blunders by falsehoods which he knows Orvilo parliamentary majority will sup port win in to have Little to expect either redress or to Forim.
