.The Lake Inperiar Liks.
Senator Campbell, ex-Pcstmaater.
General and leader of the Opposition in
the Senate, has been urging the with-
drawal of the subsidy from the Sarnia
line of steamers running to the northertt
lake ports. Although the Government
of which he was emember subsidized both
lines last year, he expressed a hope that
the present Government would decide
to subsidise only one. This strange at-
titude of a member of thehlinistry which
adopted the double subsidy was admira-
bly pointed out by Hon'. Mr. Letellier,
who said that the honorable gentleman
had iti-gued the other day that to be per-
fect the present Government must be
like that to which he had belonged, and
yet he propoeed that the present Gov-
ernment shoull not follow the course of
the Iste Government with regard to
these subsieies. We are glad to oaf
that Senators McMaster and Bonus
urged threcontinuance of both subsidies,
sea matte: of justiee to those laying
west of Toronto who desired to traffic
with the Northwest. In thii move of
Senetto CampbelLwe have a 'penmen of
