become n "buffer Province," to reduee
the jolts letween those on each side. To
chango the figura that country is the
backbone of the Dominion, and the
stronger it is the stronger the country
will be. With Northern New Ontario
filled with several hundred thousand
prosperous citizens the increased trade
that woukl come to Montreal and Tar -

smallest of the advantages flowing from
That condition. No matter what hap-

everybody is interested in knowing whe-

miles through cuuntry which will not
produce a ton of freight, or whether it
wilt be capable of great commercial de-
