ECONOMICAL AI)MINL57'RA- TION. CDII FTON'_ The Hamilton statue of Sir John Macdonald will be unveiled on No. vember 1 by Sir John Thompson.. Toronto Mail: If Mr. Haggart's economical administration of the Inter - colonial were the result of a parsi mouioua treatment of the road it might prove in the longrun less of a saving than it seems. There is reason, how- ever, to believe that this is not tate ease. A correspondent of the Halifax Herald points out that two thousand tons of heavy steel mile, charged to last year's expenses, are now being used to improve the road. Wooden bridges have been replaced by iron structures, and the service generally is being well maintained. Anew locomotive recently added to the rolling stock covereda utile in 6tty-three seconds. These facts show that the present administration is as satisfactory from an executive as from a financial point of view.

Foster spoke briefly in Ger— men to the German people of Water. loo. Objection is taken that in a Bii• tish colony it. should be found needful to speak in auy other language than English. But it is answered, that there are places in Great Britain whore the English language is not well understood. There are older Bri tieh countries than Canada where French is spoken. Madras and Bom• bay have been British dependencies some three hundred years, and the inhebitante do not speak English. Some British subjects in South Africa speak Dutch, some in Canada epeak German and some the Scandinavian tongues. It would be astounding if people were compelled to epeak and understand the English language as a necessary condition of their becoming British subjects. There is no more reason why a French Canadian should not epeak French and bo addressed in that tongue than that a Ilighland Scot should be denied the right to epeak Gaelic or a Welshman should be in• terdicted the use of hie mother tongue. Last week THE Nnws RECORD print ed several hundred extra copies, but our edition was on Thursday exhausted.

Sir John Thompeoni, Canada's Pre- mier, passed through Toronto on Sat. urday evening en his way homeward after a most succesauful tour of two week's duration through the western portions of Ontario. In conversation Sir John expressed himself as more than satisfied with the result of the two weeks' trip in the west. He wished partioularly to thank the different municipalities and the different Liboral•Coneervative associations , for the cordial manner in which they ad greeted himself and hie collea es everywhere they went. D'Alton MoCarthy will epeak at Listowel to -morrow. THE NEws•RE- e'ORD has up to this hour held a very high opinion of Mr, McCarthy. He, we regret, goes (hero on the invitation of W. G.
