Referring to those schedules out cf the Toxonto`Star-sa_`ys, as a matter of fact, no bogus schedules were issued. What the tory press_c-omplaina of is a izatiun for the purpose of obtaining in- formation fu-..use.in the revision .of the. voters lists. I`hey were not sent to the Census Commissioners, butvto the candidates and local _ot`.icers of . riding ` associations. No. infoiniation was sought which could not be given by any party worker fa miliar- with his polling sub-division. The endorsation request- ed that two-copies he - prepared by the `gentleman so chosen fo1-jca`ch sub- ldivision, and sent to the Libeal'can- did_ate. It seems tliatin this instance, ' the (Liberals. are only {allowing out - -i---- f- vIo\dI\t\I5llIJ uy'UU'|JCI\oU in exploiting the rich district known ` as New Ontario._ This region, rich as ' it is in mineral and timber resources, 5 is also a new eld for agriculturists, : containing great areas of fertile arable b land. In fact, there_is no reason `why l the same industryland perseverance ' which has made old, Untario a garden ` should not find scope almost as large in ' the undeveloped lmds of the north. ' The new country will have a fair start, ' unhampered by the disadvantages of ` the older part of the province.` T'nere`_ I are- many young farmers in Ontario who will be attracted by the possibilities ` of Temiscaming. - The Government has actesl wisely in its settlement. " regulations. ;These arejust strict enough to keep out loafers and ne er-do-wells L and to attract men of brawn and sub- 1 stance. The Temiscaming will be re- p ciuited by ne young yeomen from old i Ontario, who will be very good citizens indeed. It is in this favored dist_ric't _ also that the Government has chosen to allocate the land grants for the veterans of 66, of '85, and of the South African war. These men'have proved their I sturdiness and courage in defence oftheir country,`and will contribute a. vigorous - leaven to the new community. The Te- miscamiug expedition and its results are worth studying. V .r THE Temiscaming ex:~.ursion.of 200 land-seekers, headed by intelligent ci- cerones A from the_;Ontario Govemment departments, is a movement worthy of some attention. It shows that the Ross Government is thoroughly up-todate in avnlninn H. ..'.:..I.. .'l:-.-:_; L, SOME misinfnrrned people protest that Ontario is Conservative, and that the Dominion election last year proves it. ness of this srgunwnt. In the Legislc- turethere was 5? Liberals, 41 Conserv- atives, and West Huron vacant. In the last Dominion election theavotes boundaries had been in force--would have given 50 Liberals, 44 Conserve- tives. The Dominion gerrymander, the work of the Conservative Administra- tion at Ottawa, left the L .berals of ` the province with 36 representatives in the House of Commons. In addition to vote, would have gone Liberal by pro- vincial boundaries, 14 other ridmgs were carried by the Liberals in the pro- . vineial election of 1898. Thus in 1898 province went Liberal at one -time `or another. Besides these, were 11 ridings in. which` party schisms lost the election to the Liberals in 1900. These schisms do not exist as far asprovincial matters ar concerned, and they may he expect- ed to come back and return supporters of the Ross Government. The Liberals are out for 75 for Ross. Theguies` are encouraging, and the record of the Ross Government and the ability of its members will help to make them a reality. " ' . A study of the gures reveals the hollow-` cast in the constituencies`-if provincial the 50 tidings which, inthe Dominion - I and 1900, 64 of the 94 ridings of this i Council have tried to make the "rates equitable and it is claimed that the new at rates will beas nearly equal to the meter rate as it is possible `to make. them. Some objection will be made to the increase in street lighting but we can see ` no reason why the municipality should not bear its share of the decit. Even with an addition often percent {the Town will be paying for fifty `arc lamps` only what was paid for thirty-one to the old cor`np.iuy. ' Duubtless there will be many complaints from private con- sumers, but we belii ve the mujor'ty will en.lorse the efforts of the Council to put this department {upon a paying basis, especially as even with the increased rates the citizens of Barrie will been- joying cheaper light than the Vmnjoiity ' of towns similarly situated.

There is not a county in the ,whole province (except York which has 98). and Algomaand Thunder Bay. 111,) that has so many licensed bars as Simcoe. Cities, of course. are excluded in this comparison.

DEAR S1R:--In view of the cnicting statements made at a recent meeting of the Centre Simcoe License Commissioners, `a comparison of the actual number of licenses issued may prove interesting. There has been a marked decrease in 25 years. The Government report shows 4973 tavern, 1307 shop, 52 wholesale, and 33 vessel licenses; . in all. 6185 were isued in 1874, and 2641 tavern, 312 shop, 23~wholesale. and no vessel license, in all were issued in 1898; s reduc- tion of over 50 per cent. Commissioner Brownian nfuha that firin It was never intendei that such a . circular should be sent to thecensus enumeiators. The circulars to whicb'I refer were sent to a representative person in 9. constituency, and he circulated them amongst those who were appoint- ed as chairman. I. believe. this has been the practice of both political qarties. VVhat we complain of is that these circulars have been placed in the hands of the enumerutors. That is striking below the belt; it is not fair warfure.
