It is certain to lead to great distraint and suffering. Fon yea's past there have been few thiugs more amusing in Canadian Politics than the enddennees with which the Reform Press have changed front on the question of the 0. Y. R land grant. From the time in which the Syndicate agreement was made nubile, they have never ceased to harp upon the iniquity of the land grant of the scheme. Some of the leading papers begat valuing the grant as $2 per acre, and ended by proving it worth $10; Mr, Bloke feared that the Syndicate would starve the caws of the hardy settlers by enotosing their lands with a board fence ; and the Reform petty at large wore confident that the membere of the Syndicate, by selling part of their land at exor- bitant figures and peopling the rest with tenant farmers at extortionate rates, would all become millionaire". Witn the ram tr that the C. P. R. Company desire to get the land grant• off their hands,00mee an entire obauge of the point in view. 11 is now .de•, olared by the Reform Piese that the 0. P. R.

They contend that the laud grant, and the eoneequent enlistment, of the Syndioale as an immigration bureau wits one of the only redeeming features of the scheme, and that the relaxation of this part of the bargain, would be, as it is put ',Another Peoi fie Folly, if not . another Pacific Crime."
