NOW IN FIRST PLACE.
Winnipeg Letter.
Western Canada welcomed in the new
year in regal fashion. 'Fbe momentum
acquired in the latter weeks of the old
year has settled back to a rapid busi-
ness -like swing, and business men are
beginning 1909 with a much firmer
feeling of confidence than was in evi-
dence at the begiening of 1908. With
conservatism among the people, the
West looks forward to a tear of healthy
and steady development in lands, in.
dustry and investment
WESTERN RESOURCES
Western Canada is of the world of
business, but in a situation and under
conditions that causes it to be less dis
advantageously affected by outside cir
cumstances and more readily susceptible
to its own inherent resources than other.
and older countries which are essentially
inter -dependent in their business pro-
gress.
Western Canada can rise from or
largely overcome the depression of the
outside world in so far as itself is con-
cerned more readily than others through
the fact that it is upon the product of its
fertile soil it is largely reliant. As long
as the world must have bread. and
Western Canada can supply bread, hard
times cannot prevail West of the Red
River.
Western Canada is in a better and
easier position than any other country
capable of reasonable comparison, to
take advantage of the great wave or era
of industrial and financial activity which
in the sequence cf things will spread
over the civilized world during the year
1909.
An epoch in Ontario newspaper de.
velopment has been recorded during
the last year when The 'Toronto Daily
Star jumped into first place in circu-
lation, thus furnishing another climax
to a record of growth that is quite un-
paralleled in Canadian journalism. 3f
is only nine years since the present
management assumed control. At that
time the paper bad a daily circulation
of around 6,000 ; for the year 1g°8 it
averaged welt over 56.000 copies a day.
That the grottth is stili going on, and
is cho oby 1 w the fact
i
go,ng'on rapidly, ,
that the increase of 1908 over Igo7 was
over 8,000 copies daily.
In its editorial policy The Star has
gained a reputation for sanity and fair-
ness, and while it has strong views it
never berates those whose views are
different.
When it comes to newssgathering
The Star can generally be •lepeaded
upon to lead the way in enterprise.
That it does not spare expense in serving
its readers was illustrated many times
during the year, a notable illustration
being on the occasion of the Olympic
¢acres, when it sent a member of its
staff from Toronto to England to cover
them specially by cable and letter for
The Star.
'rhe Stai not only gets the best news,
but it dresses it up so as to make its
pages bright and attractive. It is a
firm believer in the value of striking
pictures.
These ate some of the reasons why
The Star is now supreme in its field.
One of the latest features of the paper
has been a series of articles on com-
bines which bas been attracting
very wide attention. 'These articles are
being quoted and commented on every-
where, and one subscriber wrote the
other day to say that one of the articles
alone was worth his whole year's sub-
scription.

WINNIPEG FINANCIAL CENTRE

outlook is that g t n a fele
l
years will become a greatfinancial
centre. Every year brings forth a re-
cord one in bank clearings, loan com-
pany investments, insurance and
trust
company business.
The total for Winnipeg bank clearings
for the year 3908 was $618 ttl,Boi.
Last year it was $599.697,576 and in
tgo6, $504.585.914. raking the three
previous years the total clearings for
Winnipeg were. 0903, $246,to8,ou6 ; in
1904, $284,601,437 ; 1905, $369,863.179.
INSURANCE COMPANIES PROSPEROUS
The manager of a local life company
states that at the end of tgo8 his com•
pany had in force $40.000,000 of busi-
ness, which is interes'ing, from the fact
that this company, organized and operat-
ed from Winnipeg, started in 1892 with
a total showing of business ie force for
the first year of only $862,zoo. Another
local life company, newer in the field,
showed a business in force in Igo7 of
$589,766, which has grown to the sum of
hat
phenomenal strok00.000 in e A iv
of business was also
done by another loan company, which
has only been in the field for rhe past
sixteen months. Iu the four months of
