NORTH WESTERN PROGRESS.
Last week thele was laid on the ta:
hie of the House of.Coremoesthe annu-
al report of the Interior Departnieet,
from x.,
R?hieh we gather slaty erteouray-
ing filets relatirtg to the progress of
i.ai.(1 u :a in Manitoba and, the North
Western Territories. Our readers will
nidtrstaed that the chief field for im-
migration is in the. groat North .West,
s'here many thnusatttls of pttpplo have
formed a homta for themselves not only
from Ontario but from the old world
The Dominion government has lost no
opportunity of booming that part of
Canada, simply because of its illimit-
able resources and fertile territory,—
forntiag as it sloes an outlet for the con
Bested districts in Britain aid Europe,
as well as for aur young then and far-
mers' sons who could not afford to buy
laid in old Ontario and the other east
ern provinces, Judgiig from the re
port just submitted to parliament, it
seems that an arrangement was made
in 1874 by which the several provinces
were to contribute a large sum annual -
}y for the encouragement of immi;ra
tion into the Dominion; but,as this was
never carried our, the federal authori-
ties closed lip the emigration agencies
at various points, and thus a saving
has been effectecfof 820,000, while the
work was more efficiently done by the
department as the direct medium for
encouraging emigration to our West
ern provinces. According to the ann-
ual report. there were taken up in
homesteads aid Eales of land by gov-
erninent over 600,000 acres in 1891;
and in the following' year (1S92) over
960,000 acres. Besides that, the gov-
ernment have had surveyed during the
same near 1,395,200 acres in farm gots
ready for settlement. Not only is there
found in all parts of the Western ter-
ritory oceans of the most fertile soil,
but in several localities coal of various
kinds has been discovered thus giving
to the settlers abundance of fuel at
Sow rates. Since the Souris coal mines
have been opened up, and bY means of
transportation by rail, coal has been
delivered at Regina and Wihnipeg and
other points at $4 per ton. This, of
course is a great advantage in a coun-
try where, in many places, wood was
scarce. The report just submitted to
Parliament is full of encouraging de-
tails—among other things stated, are
the establishment of creameries and
cheese factories; the enormous yield of
grain amounting to 16,000,000 bushels
last year, a large proportion of which
is available for export; and the pros
pect of our North Western hard wheat
taking place of the softer wheat :grain
grown in the Western States in the
markets of China and Japan. All this
is encouraging to Canadians, 'who
should rejoice at the growing develop
merit and prosperity ofa country which
has progressed faster within a few
years than almost any country in the
world,
THE PROPOSED PHARMACY
ACT.
A. bill has been prepared and will be
introduced luto the Legislative As
sembly nest month to amend the
Pharmacy Act, and one which in our
opinion is very injudicious and unjust,
and not in public interest. I£ this bill
should become law, none but a quali-
fied druggist can sell medicine of any
Y
kind, r.at evee 'be most simple kind,
such as castor oil, salts,senna, tur'pen-
tine, patent medicines, horse medi-
cines, and many other simple house
hold articles that have been sold in
country stores ever sitter the country
was first settled. 4t'e are not aware
that the; safety of lite or health has
sttlfered from the vending of , these
articles by sr.. ere keepers,—the suggest-
ion appears to us simply absurd. Why,
then, should a monopoly to benefit a
few be established to the manifest in-
juryofth.e store keepe.rs and to the
verygreat inconvenience of the most
of people 11 villa' outside of cities. There

HUSBAND AND WIVES WIT-
NESSES.
At Thursday's session the Senate
took up and considered the Canada
Evideuce Aet of 1S93, which passed in
the House of Commons two weeks ago.
The most important section of the act
was section four, which provided that
in criminal trials the wife or husband
of the accused should not only be com-
petent to give evidence, but might be
compelled to do so. This section con-
templated a decided change in the law.
Communications between husband and
wife belong to the class of privileged
communications. The theory of the
law has been that the happiness of the
marriage state requires that there
should be the most unlimited confi-
dene between husband and wife. For
this reason, formerly, neither party
could be examined in a legal action in
which the other was interested as a
party. This theory, however,was brok-
en in upon iu 1873, when an act was
passed placing husbands and wives
under the same rules substantially
as other persons in civil actions. The
Senate has refused to extend this pro-
secution. They probably think that it
would be a severe hardship to compel
one married person to go upon the
stand and have to answer questions
which might lead to the conviction and
punishment, possibly to the capital
punishment, of the person in whom all
their interest and affection were cen-
tered. The Montreal Star expressed
his view with fervour when it argued
that the proposed change in the law
would introduce a system of moral
torture into our criminal procedure
nothing less than barbarous. We can-
not say that we entertain or approve
of the stand taken by the Senate. We
believe that tire clause ohjected to
should have passed. No doubt there is
much to be said on the other side. No
doubt there would he hardship, but the
hardship would only exist where the
accused was really guilty. In civil
cases, there has been a great adyant-.
age in giving the court tele benefit of
the testimony of the parties and their
husha.nds and wives. No one would
think of returning to the old law when
this important species of evidence was
excluded. It is found to be of assist
anoe in getting at the truth, and this
is the object as well of criminal as of
civil procedure.
