nnore contented, if realestate has
increased in value, if labor is more
plentiful and the• la.berers enjoying
profits through it, if qur productions
of wealth are greater oaring to this
policy, then by all means let us, seek to
ontinue it ; but if on the contrary the
•'reverse has been the else then it is
• high time to return to a system that
may oiler better things. We take two
evidences from the Uovernmentreporis
that seem eo9.41.k.ww,
ari'denosits in Post
tglice Savings Bank reflect the con
'clition of the country generally, and
we notice that they have increased
from ,$2,754,48.4 iL1 1878 to
422 in 1889. This would seem to
indicate a great. degree of prosperity.
We also notice another ev
me overnment
report. The total loan effecte,c1by loan
-companies and building societies. in
1878 a mounted to $34,703,748. These
increased to $96,878,812 in 1888.
'Vie affirm that farming lands have
v•Mierised in value throughoutthe
older provinces of the Dominion at
•,least twenty-five per cent. owing to
the lower profits in the business now
than formerly. And when we tee the
,great increase of the mortgage inde.bt-
-edness, which is largely placed upon
-.the farm property, we conclude that
the farmers have not been the deposit-
• ors in the Savings Bank. Moreover
we believe one reason why such
deposits have increased so enormously
•is that many investors who, in more
,prosperous times, lent their capital to
farmers on their own petsonag. security,
have been withdrawing it froni the
-farmers and investing it in the Savings

pula-
tion haanot increased throughout the
-older provinces of Canada is too eiri-

• ',expect that When the census is taken
there will be a . marked 'decrease of
population in the rural districts
• throughout the older provinces.
There are seven vacant dwelling houses
, within a mile and a half of where I sit
- that at one time were all occupied.
The population has ..deereased - in the
rtownship of Kinlossby about two
hundred since .1884 and although
many of- western vinages have
taxed th'etuselves to give bonuses to
manufacturing industries, we venture
-to-say a thevillagea, that taken cal-*
Jectively there has not been any
tincrease of population, while in many
.of them etepty houses testify to the
fact that many have, found homes in'
',other' lands, 'The .fact that twenty -
live per cent. of our,native ,born popu-

while we are pleased to know that the
AC inadian holds this own wherever he
-goes and as a class stand first, yet as -a
patriot I regret that we educate them

we Live immense forests to manufac-

greatest fisheries .in the world and
agricultural possibilities not yet half
reached, there must be- something
•radically wrong or our rising pepula
tion would find honies and reinunera-

There was to be a great increise of •
population if the people adopted the

years of fair trial we believe there has
not been even the nal ural increase,
