decl hm- dli lei: Hon. Mr. Oarling s scheme to establish experimental stations this summer will not` come into e operation prematurely. Amour the things which it proposes to deal with is forestry, and while the use- fulness of experiments in that direction are primarily intended to benet the prairie Provinces of the Dominion, they must before manz years have passed be acted upon in t e older sections of the coun .,_ It is true we have an abund- ance o timber just now ;but the foreign demand is increasing and the value of our PLANT TBS. There are two great reasons for general tree planting which every Canadian is in- terestedin. One is for our `future timber supply and the other is for the protection of crops. Any one who has travelled -through Western Ontario this spring will have noticed that where grain elds were protected by woods last winter the wheat was not injured at all, but bids fair to yield an abundant crop. Where it has been winter-killeduis just where there was no protection. b There is monev in tree plant- ing, whether for timber or for protection. or for preserving our streams from ex- tinction. We commend the following from our `excellent contemporary the London Free Press as worthy of con-` sideration : A III JILILIC Z clt is intolerable that the Canadian Pacic. constructed as it has been princi- pally _by mortgagmg . the property of Ontario, should be used as a means of destroying the trade of the Province. Ontario does not begrudge Montreal~ the trade" it will legitimately get as the terminus of the Canadian Pacic. That trade must necessarily be large,'and as. the whole country has been subsidized in order to give it_ to Montreal that city ougi1.$ `.9 W3` 9tnt Wlthouli attempting to steal trade that legitimately belongs elsewhere." 11 1 _- n,,,.'__1,,.,L . ULDU W ll-UL Us ' From Callander via Graveuhurst to Toronto is 227 miles. From Callander to `Montreal is 300 miles. Now, Western Ontario ought to be allowed to have the benet of the 133 miles by which it- is nearer to the neutral point, Callander. The Canadian Pacic, however, in the interests of itself and Montreal, proposes that Toronto shall be made to sacrice all this advantage of proximity-shall be shoved back"223 miles, and shall be made to send its shipments via Smith s Falls to Callander, 450 miles, instead of via Grav- enhurst. 227 miles ; thus giving Toronto and Ontario traic generally` an unneces- sary journey of 223 miles. And as be- tween Montreal and Toronto, making Toronto 90 miles farther from Callander instead 133 miles nearer, as well -as caus-_ ing a delay of at least` one unnecessa day` in the delivery of freight.

Since. that bargain was made the Canadian Pacic has acquired other lines, and it "has become-the interest of the Uompany to keepnossession of the trafcitself, for its own lines, as long as possible. The Company is, therefore, seeking to'be ~re~ leased from its obligation with respect to Callender. The Company also intends to_ discriminate against Mr. McCar`th_y s road, the Gravenhurst 8: Callander (Ontario & Pacic Junction), and" rather than give up its traflic at Callander it will despatch goods intended for Toronto and Western Ontario round by , Smith's Falls, thence westward by the Ontario & Quebec road. fa l.....n-an nn #1.}. .......LL.... 1|/I - lll'..fV.._.l.1....

To give weight to that hopeful and encourag- ing statement, there is at present at the Colonial and Indian, Exhibition in Lon- don, Eng., a perfect display of _our mineral resources in charge of the Chief Director of the Geological survey. They will draw the attention of capitalists. ' Only one thing in chief, it is to befeared, will retard the introduction of capital . for these important purposes, and that is the black and discouraging pictures which Canadian Grit journals seem to via with each other in painting of our country. Here they are known to be drawn for political effect ; but as that is a policy pursued by Opposition journals in no. other country in the world, they are sure to be misunderstood abroad to our detri- ment. l TEE GLOBE AND DALTON TMOGARTHY.

The matter has been brought to the at- tention of the Board by Mr. McCarthy.

Special attention was given by the royal visitors to the game and agricul- tural trophies, the educa.tlona.l`and geolo- gical exhibitions, and the display of agri- cultural machinery. Before leaving the Queen expressed a desire that the public should know how much she admired the Canadian court and how greatly she was interested in the Canadian exhibits. The general public were excluded from the court during the time the royal party were present. .` _ afternoon. John Muir was before the Police Magistra- tes on Tuesday for being connected with an illicit still. Inland evenue Ocer, M. Shanacy, and Constable Greer having learn- ed that a still was in operation on lot 7, con. 3rd, Oro, sought that locality and found all the apparatus for the manufacturing of whiskey and Muir in oha e of it. They arrested the man and am` the still. The prisoner was before the Mayor on Tuesday,` but the case was adjourned till Wednesday forest possessions j are rapidly being en- hanced. They must before long become of enormous value. ' A glance over the geography of the world shows that but one other count ` possesses so large an area of forests as anada, and that country is Russia. At the present rate of consump- tion the United States, with 16,000 saw mills, has but twenty-seven years simply, outside of private possessions, and_the trade now springing up with that country _is but the beginning of what must be- come a very great branch of our foreign commerce in a few more years. The planting of hardwood trees on land not otherwiseverv useful cannot be begun too soon, France since 1848 has converted nine millions`of her waste acres into for- ests, and the wisdom of that course is abundantly demonstrated. Each acre, which before being planted with trees . produced about $1 75 annually, is now valued at over $60. The people of Canada, when they have looked into this matter, will see the propriety of taking any proper steps which have for object the development of forestry. There s millions. in it. ` The growth of phosphate mining in the Ottawa Valley, chiey through the instrumentality of rtmerican capital. seems to be but the beginning of a genuine movement towards the general develop- ment of our enormous mineral interests. Few countries have equal advantages in thisrespect. In iron, for instance, which lies at the basis of the world's commerce in minerals, the ironstone of Canada is not only found in abundance, but yields a higher percentage of metal than that of any other country. The percentages of the leading countries are :-England, 41 ; Germany, 36 ; France, 31; United States, 43; Australia, 55 ;, Algeria, 58; Russia, 44, and Sweden, 52. Canada's percentag e V ct metal from the ironstone deposits is 60 - the very highest in the world.

G i The chief Grit organ lately indulged in a characteristic homily on the mistakes of Sir John Macdonald. It would have offered a much more instructive lesson if the Globe had taken an honest review of its own and its party wire pullers mis- takes. The Canadian premier has made mistakes during his lohg political life, which he frankly confesses, but they are not in the line charged against him by the Globe. The honest Reformers of the Dominion are painfully conscious of the mistakes of the organ: and of those men who claim to be the leaders of the party. The twenty-six members of the House of Commons who deserted Mr. Blake on the rlxiel question proclaim their belief that Mr. Blake and the Globe had committed one of the most fatal political blunders ever made by a public man in the name of his party. The policy of slander adopt-I ed. by the organ and its imitators in par- liament is a mistake and a crime combined, ,'hi.h Will be? it-8 legitimate fruit at the general election. The course of Mr.. Blake and his organ on the Franchise question is another mistake as blind as it is wilful and stupid. The charge that the whole judiciary is plotting to deprive Reformers of their votes is beyond ques- tion one the most egregious blunders ever perpetrated by a political party. The unceasing opposition to the Canadian Pacic Railway and the dreary prophecies of ruin to the people as the result of ex- penditnre in_ its construction, is another of the mistakes of the short-sighted wire pullers of the Grit party and its serene souled leader. In the light of late events and especially the repayment by the company of $20,000,000 the most obtuse follower of Mr. Blake cannot fail to see the mistake. The truth is that the whole course of the Globe, the Grit leader and the party hacks, from Mills to Herman H. Cook, has been one stupendous blunder and it would be a sad day for this Dominion if the guidance of its destinies were intrusted to men who seem to delight in obstructing everything calculated to aid in the country's advancement, to do all they are able tolessen its credit in the eyes of the world, and to endeavor to make out that every public man out side of the Grit ranks is a public plunderer and a scoundrel. No wonder the people still repose condence in Sir John Mac- donald and his government. DEFEAT OF AN IMPORTANT BILL. The House of Lords has again, by a vote of 149 to 127', defeated the bill to legalize _the marriage of a man with his deceased wife s sister. It is difficult to understand why sucha measure should be met by the opposition it receives in the House of Lords. `Neither the `Bible, reason nor sound theology can be set up as ground for this opposition but simply the anti- quated canons of the Episcopal church and the strong prejudices "of the bishops and clergy. The nineteen bishops opposed the bill and the Prince of Wales supported it. This measure has the support of a very large majority of the people and will ultimately become the law in spite of the opposition of either priest or bishop. -an C77.

We must confess. that the tone `of the British press on the shery question is not favorable for federation so far as this Do- minion is concerned. Canadians will be disposed to ask what special advantages will accrue to this country from any closer alliance with-an empire which is disposed to give away one `of their most valuable possessions to qainthe favor of acountry that is always trying to over-reach them in diplomacy. We should"be glad to see the different parts of the empire drawn closer together for commerce and defence`, _ but we feel sure the people will never consent to go into a Confederacy at the cost of their self-respect and their acknow- ledged rights "at the dictation of Yankee blustering re-eaters. ' It isto be hoped that this shery question will be settled at the earliest possible date, as a necessary lemma to the discussion of a basis for Confederation, and it is very desirable that this question of `Imperial Federation be taken out of the region of sentimental- ity and placed before the people` on the basis of practical facts.
