The spectre of direct `taxation 7 haunts many a Legislature, and makes tc n.any calls on their cleverness to allay it. The Ontario Goveinment'haa shown in various ways its willingness to tackle ' "the assessment problem. There was la `people as-eminently fair-.-that those the commission, for instance, which sat not long ago. The result of its deliber- -4 ations will soon be placed before the public. Doubtless their recommenda- tions will even up the burden without arresting those activities which tend to the development. of.t'ne Province and 1 the exploitation of its resources.

Mr. Booth of Ottawa recently stated that he had one limit from which he had been cutting for forty years, and that he could cut from it for forty years longer and leave it in \a is good shape. This shows what can he done by careful concessionaires `who know what timber to cut and what to leave standing. The Ontario Govern- : ment has established a Bureau of Forestry, with a progressive superintend- ent at his head. The duty of this ' Bureau is to see to the conservation of our forest wealth, to guard against bush res by an efficient system of rangers, and to devise plans of reboisement wherever they are necessary. The 1 - Government hes set aside in Algonquin. 1 "Park and Temisctmirfne two great national parks, which will preserve the ' watersheds of the country and will be.` . incidentally, treasm`-ies_ of standing timber and wild game. In every way the Government indicates a desire to husband theacinatural resources, to draw the interests so _to speak-not to squander the capital.
