'f_fie symâ€" pathy of other newspapers will naturally be with The Ottawa Journal in this matter. ’Newspapusi are always delighted to receive letters from 1eadâ€"i ers. They are equally delighted to publish the| letters when that is practical. But it is not always' practical. Some letter writers are especially help-f ful. They had a favoured place in the heart of | the editor. They seem to have an intuition as to‘ what is fair.and expedient. Such a letter writer | wrote The Advance on a similar topic to that of the unpublished Ottawa letter. This:â€"letter was | not published.

Diligent enquiry here has failed to find a case where the "plan has been tried out."‘ If some form of unauthorized payment to settlers is being used in Cochrane district, it must be wholly political in its inception and application, and so completely valueless, or worse, as an experiâ€" ment. Judging on the record it would be a calaâ€" mity if the administration of a landâ€"clearing bonus were left in the hands of the political deâ€" partment of Hon. Mr. Croll. It is foredoomed to failure if it starts with political taint and affiliaâ€" tions rathér than as a measure for the renewing of hope and opportunity for the settlers of the North. The second astonishing remark by Hon. Mr. Croll was in reply to Mr. Langdon‘s advocacy of a landâ€"clearing bonus for settlers. "The plan is beâ€"| ing tried out in Cochrane riding," was the ’efi‘ectf of the statement. How could the plani be tried out | when no legislation has been passed to â€"make it EOE h. In the recent interview between members of fi?b Ontario Cabinet and the deputation representing the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade there were two statements or suggestions made that coming from any other source would have been considered little less than astonishing. Hon. David Croll, Minister of Public Welfare, was responsible for both these peculiar statements or suggestions. In the one case he left the impression that the filching of the income tax from the town of Timâ€" mins would give this municipality added revenue of some $4,000 a year, though the truth is that the town will lose ten or eleven thousand dollars a year through the change. Hon. Mr. Croll his acâ€" cess to the facts and figures. There is no excuse for him if he does not know the truth, which is that the filching of the income tax mMeans a straight loss of ten or eleven thousand dollars to Timmins.
