Many believed that the - popu- lation of` the Dominion would be shown to be over ve millions but instead of that the gures` were 4,823,344 being an increase of something over 11 per cent in ten years. As usual the opponents of the Government are trying to make , political capital out of this. as well as of everything else that it is possible to use for that purpose. It is true, every lover of Canada hoped that the census would show a larger increase in the last decade, but there is no reason for a wail of des- pair. The increase has been a substan- tial one and of a sort to be proud of. N 0 part of it is the scum of European cities but law-abiding wealth producing citi- zens. Under all the circumstances the wonder is that the increase has been as large as it is. Sir Richard Cartwright - and the organs that are in sympathy with him, have been persistently crying down - the `country. telling that its people are U groaning under a weight of taxes oppres- sive and tyrannical, that the Government is a sink of corruption and its public C men a lot of plundering scoundrels; com- I . paring the country and its institutions ' :' unfavorably with the United States, and . pointing to Yankeedom as a very paradise , for the immigrant. This sort of thing was eagerly picked up by United States ` \ papers and published in Europe and_ wherever it would have the most effect. With `all this detraction of Canada and glamour thrown around` the United States there is no wonder that those who under other circumstances would have settled in Canada,sought a home in the State s Noth- ing however is more grossly dishonest than the attempt to make out that cer- tain rural lccalities which have not in- creased but have actually lost some of its population - since the last census forms a, case peculiar to Canada. The tendency of people to ock to towns and cities has been a marked feature of the last ten years in England and the United States,as well as here, from causes entirely beyond the action of Governments. The census of the United States shows hundreds of places `where the populatibn. has been stationary or has even decreased. A party that would stoop to such means to discred- ~ it its opponents andseek to slide into ofce by slanderingits `public men, and doing all it can to ruin thecountry s reputation is unworthy of the condence of its peo- ple. - . ~ . . vr:nszunr.a-:axn -ran swans Venez uela has rejected the commercial - treaty negotiated by Mr. Blaine with V the representatives-of that Republic. _ The annual revenue of , that govern- ment is about $6,000,000. one-third of which would be sacriced had the treaty been ratied. ` . With Sir John Thompson, we believe the heart `of . the country is sound and pure, and if the elements ofgood in the secular and religious life of the country are roused up to an active and faithful discharge` of their functions, a new and healthful` moral tone will replace the dark spots which now appear in the counr try's politioaland` moral life. _-nences on which honestsnd useful man- hood andwomanhood so much depend. `But .thia.-.-_1wo_s -k of .-toning` up the moral sense for its future prosperity. much will depend on parents.

The false standard which modern society has set up, by which a man's im- portance is measured by the amount of money he possesses has much to do in producing the moral degeneracy that exists. Money must be obtained, the honest legitimate way is too slow and peculatiou is the inevitable result. And so we` have lit from the over reaching in business relation, petty pilfering from the till, the borrowing and misuse of trust funds for speculation, followed by. failure and ruin,up to the plundering of the public funds by politicians and contractors, until the whole public service is tainted with jobbery and moral wrong.

What, after all, is the real dif- ference between this species of bargain and sale between a government and mem- bers of a legislature and the purchase of a member's support by atimber limit, or a public works contract it The former is no more insidious than the other,and far more dangerous, just because it is insidious. It strikes directly at the root of parliam- entary independence, and is vicious in the extreme. The extent to which this Reform principle has been developed in Ontario is nothing short of scandalous.

Permitting acts likeathese to pass unnoticed and un- rebuked tends to lower the moral tone of the community in which they occur and by and by acts of greater moral delin- quency are tolerated and regarded with an indifference utterly subversive of the safe- guards of moral rectitude. `:1 Work 6 K W PNTN,| 2s..};B;%iYFf1I) -_`:-._ STREET, Au 1-nousm OI` VALULBIJ T;ow~oe?'a1u.yE. _. _. .... vvIn|lIl' Jun,-5:: nuu uuuuoy `nor.

But innumerable- cases of petty plundering are `known, which for certain reasons are not told to the world. Cases are of daily occurrence in our business centres, where acts of `dishonesty are committed by people, who have not got far enough along to openly put their hands into their neighbors pock- ets and steal, yet seem to have no scruples about selling an inferior article at the price of a good one.
