In the House of Commons last week, Mr, Monk .(-Conservative) mov- ed a resolution calling .for the aboli- tion of the iniquitous bounty system. He was able to show by way of comparison -that the .United States Government not only gives no boun- ty, but obliges immigrants .to,pay for the privilege of becoming settlers at sogmuch per head. The head tax began at $1 and has been gradually increased 'to $4--a sum suiciently large enough to meet all expenses in connection with the .department of immigration. When it is considered that Uncle ~S:am_ has no longer .free land for settlers, the absurdity of Canada s position is greatly accent- uated. Then, again, as 'Mr.. Monk` pointed out, the bonus, primarily -.in- tended for farm `laborers, his extend- ed to all classes, even to those who ought not to be admitted at all.- A 'L`_ _`__ , _' A---.__.. ..----..- _--_..- --.I E" -M{-.' and Mrs. Ed'."Hi1l of ' 1'oronto spent Eastertide with `Mr. and _!Mrs- `Geo: H.
