PENSE, § Director, Dailp Whig. TALK ABOUT THE RAIDS. The political historian is at work, Jand he is digging up some facts in vince and their defenders. When the territory of Ontario was' at stake, when the conservative government es saved a huge confiscation; and Sir John Maedonald led in the raid, de- claring that not an acre of the dis- rals belonged to Ontario; when there was a clash on the license question, and the dominion government under- ing its inspectors, when Sir Oliver Mowat was denounced as "a little tyrant," who should be ousted where was Mr. Whitney ? He was not one of the party who was fightifig the trespassers and demanding "hands off," but one of those who were stand- ing by and consenting to the spolia- tion of the province. The wonder is that he ean desire, under the circum- stances, a revival of these unplemsant memories--and they are unpleasant. The real friends of the province are the liberals. They protected it when it needed protection, and they are sincerely 'desirous of metine out to it justice and fair play now. ENTERPRISE AND FAILURE. Calgary has decided that it will em- bark in the ownership of a street rail- way as soon as the money market be- comes easier and at least $250,000, the estimated initial cost, can be com- fortably financed. Money is. now "high," as looked at from a mpunici- pal standpoint. The debentures are not selling well to the issuers of them. The interest on western bonds is 4} and. 5 per.cent., and it is likely to remain there for many a day. The reason is not far to seek. Business generally is booming. The varied com- mercial enterprises of the day ce- mand lorge capital, and the banks can lend out advantageously all the funds they can accumulate. Calgery may, therefore, have to wait for sume time before it can develop its new municipal schemes, A contemporary, the Montreal Her- ald, recalls that Mr. Walker, tha pre sident of the Bank of Commerce, does not think much of some municipal én- terprises and it wonders what he will think of Calgary's decision on this question, "Brother Walker," as he is titled, can have no objection to the people doing anything which they un- derstand and can safely take care of. A strest railway requires expert manage- ment. It requires a large and popul- ous constituency. No city of less than 40,000 can, it is calculated, make enough out of the street railway. ser- vice to pay for expenses and main- tenance, and provide a proper rest account, Careful management may, under private ownership, afford in addition a reasonable dividend. Is the same ecohomy practiced under public as under private arrangement ? No one can say that who really knows of the changing wircumstances and changing plans of the average muni- cipal council. One inroad after anoth- er is made on the funds or earnings of a plant until a crisis is reached. Calgary may be in a position to ex- "as street cars go, and it may not. Failure, however, is not something which can be cheerfully contemplated, and the city can afford to grow in | size as well as experience before it ventures too much in untried schemes.

He's getting .what he did not look for. S-- The liberals in the legislature voted that the registration--and the fran- chise conveyed under it---should be given to the inhabitants of all towns in Ontario. This should be remem- bered. . ' The Montreal Gasette is worried be- cause so many of the federal ministers are out of the country. Is the public business suffering? So much the worse for the government, if the dp- position be alert and equal to its op- portunities. The Halifax Herald (conservative) is satisfied that unless Mr. Borden gets a gait on, and "'orders his fol- fowers to obey him," the opposition will suffer from dry rot, "which pre- sages decay and ultimate extinction." Straight talk. Conservatives as well as liberals were interested in the nomination of Hon. Mr. Pugsley, for St. John, left vacant by the death of Dr. Stockton. There may be another liberal candi- date, Mr. Sears, but if local feeling favours Mr. Pugsley he will be elected. The registration of voters is confined to cities and towns "having a population of nine thousand over." The electors who are disfran- chised in other places will have a sub- stantial grievance. If the registration is a good thing for one should be a good thing for all places where voting to a considerable extent has to be done. now place it Team Of Horses Drowned.

Little Ancient History. Hamilton Spectator . Mr. Bourassa objects to the British immigrant, and says he is vicious, immoral and unhealthy. Once upon a time--we think it was in 1759--a band of these vicious, immoral and unheal- thy Britons immigrated into Quebec, and took charge of New France, and the Bourassas have been disgruntled ever since.
