Canada during the past few month. in favor
01 Continental Union is melting strong head-
way. In \Yestern Ontario, especially. the
reties. of the present Government are doing
much to accelerate the movement From
Windsor to the far East of the Province the
leaven is working, and the whole lump is
fast becoming permeated with the impel of
political regeneration. During the paid week
a Provincial Union haa been formed, with
headquarters in Toronto and connections in
many of the coanties, to tooter the good
work, and high hopes are entertained that
success will crown the efforts of the men
who are endeavoring to 'reprove the condi-
tion of the land to which they live and
which they love so well, by an educational
,empaign against the mon lied methods
that now prevail at the Veinal cannel.

We learn on good authority that the
chances of the Godench 4 Winghain R.R.
look brighter than at any other time since
the inception of the scheme.
lt is now beyond a peradventure that the
goveratnetntal 'ubsidy of $341100 per mile will
be °humeri, and it ie possible that other
advastages may accrue.
Capitalists have begun to turn their
attention to the scheme, and tf the
municipalities do their duty, there is
every reams to believe that • comparatively
abort time will elapse before the osestrac-
uoti of the contemplated road is assured.
To gain the desired end work will have
to be done toward getting liberal bemuses
from the munkipalities. and with the bene-
fit to be derived by tbe construction of the
competitive line there should be no difficulty
experienced in securing the local aid which
is deemed necessary.
United work by friends of the scheme
and liberality on the pert of the municipali-
ties, euppletnented by the Government sub-
sidy, will swore the desired end in • com-
paratively short time. Now, let everybody
get to work
