TOO MUCH,.GOVERNMENT. Fourteen houses of Parliaiuent For a Population of '5,000,000. How many people in Canada fully realize to what extent I Australia , is over -governed? For a small' popula- tion of just over five millions there are as Governor-General, six State Governors, two ' Federal Houses of Parliament—the Senate and House of .,.Representatives—and e twelve State }l'ous'es of Parliament. That is a total of seven Governors and fourteen Houses of Parliament :Lor five millions of people! Each householder has therefore to vote for candidates for four Houses. At the Federal elections he has to vote for the House of Representatives' and also for the. Senate, which is the Up- Iie :'1=ioiuse. The House oY pepresentatives has sixty-five Members, who are elected' for a tenure of three years,.• whilst Members of the "Upper House are elected on a State basis -six Senators from each State -thus making thirty- six Senators. Each State has its own Parliament, consisting of the Legisla- tive Assembly and the Legislative -Council-the” Upirer-House, The reader has only to think over the above statements to realize to what extent Australia is :over -govern- ed, and the numerous Government of- ficials that abound everywhere.

The old proverb about diamond cut diamond used to be true, but to -day a diamond can be sawn throfigh by a thin disc of plaospher-copper revolving -about three thousand times a minute. For many ,years all diamonds had .t,o be sent to Amsterdam, svhere the Jews had a monopoly of the trade of dia- ritondscutting. Even the Cullinareudia- Mond -was sent there to be "cleft" in two, sayi a.London weekly. But there was a time when a dia- mond could be efficiently cut in Eng- land, and the time is coming when- it will again be possible. Mr. John Hodge, the British Pensions Minister, has it on hiS •list, as, the song says, foe he regards ',mond-cutting as an ideal occupation for legless men.
