also, be it remembered, is on thei calcu-
lation that all bear anoqual share of the
burden. But, as we have shown; our
'French fellow countryman_ escapes his
part of the tax, and consequently the
tax of Ids English neighbor is• just so
much the higher. And in addition to
this is to be added the enormons tax
we pay to the United States foradmie-
Sion to that market, andthe additional
profits to the favored manufacturers
who, bybeing shielded from competition
are enabied to charge more for theta -
products than they would bting. if sub-
jected to competition. It will tbus be
seep how much the English speaking
Canadian is handicapped in comtarison
with his French neighbor.' Is it any
wonder :that hei is driven to the wall
and forced to gp elsewhere where he can
have a fairer. field? We:fancy this is a
much more powerful influence iii up-
rooting the English and allowingthe
spread of the French both in Quebec and
in the Eastern part Of :,`Ontario than
either the Church or the School. ; And
for this we have the remedy_tn our own
• hands. The English speaking ;people
will not adopt the habits.and onstams
of the French peoile, nor is it deiirable
they should do so. But they can if
they will, enforce R. more •aeonemieal ad-
minstration of public affairs, and they
can enforce a reduction in their annual
tax bill, and id theseavaya place •them-
selves in a better position to. hold their.
Own against all odds. At preenthey
are waging a very uneven- contest, and
if they do not take means to lesiontheir
self as:mined burdens they will be worse
before they are better. If the English
speaking people of both Quebec and On-
tario would pay half as much attention
to their annual tax- bill and - the wear'

• French Aggression.
Some 'people pretend to be dreadfully
frightened lest the French people Pifer -

a French Cenadiatt colony.. They say
that the Frenchnre gradually and rapid-

and notoontent with that they are com-
ing over the borders and gaining pos• -

point. to the counties of Prescott and

transformation has ' been much more
rapid within: the past ten years, 'and
that at the present rate , of going the
counties named will be not only entirely
depopulated of English speaking people
• but that the French will have extended
