THE POLITICAL SITUATION.
That there is a crisis in Ontario
political affairs, none can deny ;.
indeed, at present, it appears to be
almost a deadlock in parliamentary
legislation.
It is admitted, even by Liberals,
that the Ross Government cannot
carry on the affairs of the country
much longer, and from so high an
authority in the Liberal councils as
the Globe, has come the suggestion
that a coalition of the parties for
governmental purposes be formed.
Had nothing more been said, this
is positive proof that the Ross re-
gime is about at an end. But the
Globe goes further—it very plainly
intimates that Mr. Ross cannot go
on, and something must be done.
When the Globe goes that far, it is
evident in plain words, that "the
jig is up."
There will be no coalition. Fbr
Mr. Whitney to enter into such an
arrangement with an outfit that
has retained power by such: ques-
tionable methods as the Ross gov-
ernment has (for which see records
of election courts) would be to en-
ter into an unclean alliance. What
the electors want is a thorough
change, both in the government
itself and the methods of conduct-
ing elections, and by 7,000 of a
majority they have protested
against the continuance of Ross in
power.
The general opinion regarding
the present situation appears to be
—that another general election is
not far off, and that Mr. Ross will
again appeal to the country, and
thus again ask an expression of con-
fidence which the electors so recent-
ly refused to give him, Such a
course however, is declared by those
who ought to know, to be uncon-
stitutional.
Between the people and any vio-
lation of the Constitution by any
politician or political party, stands
(or should stand) Sir Oliver Mowat,
so renowned in the past as the
watchful guardian of our Provincial
Rights, and always regarded as be-
ing eminently 'constitutional'. Sir
Oliver Mowat cannot afford, so near
the close of so long and useful a
career, to sully his reputation as a
guardian of the 'Constitution, by
allowing Mr. Ross to violate the
Constitution in an attempt to save
adiscredited government. This is
especially important in view of the
fact that Mr. Whitney has a popu-
lar majority of 7,000 notwithstand-
ing the activity of the machine.
Ontario will look to Sir Oliver to
regard the popular wish, and will
expect him to effectually bar the
way to any attempt of Mr. Ross to
over -ride the Constitution in his
anxiety` to retain power in face of a
popular majority ok 7,000 against
him,
Mr. Ross should declare his in-
tentions ; he should either resign,
or summon the Legislature. If he
is permitted to again ask for the
renewal of confidence refused him
in May last, the refusal Is likely to
be given in a manner so emphatic
as to be unmistakable.

—The trial of the Conservative
protest in North Grey, against the
return of A. G. McKay, is Iikely to
be postponed on account of the ab-
sence in California of J. H. Carson,
the deputy returning -officer at poll
No. St. Vincent, who is an impor-
tant witness, as it was at this poll
that four ballots marked for the
Conservative candidate, were found
to be spoiled withsfaint crosses. It
seems strange that "material wit-
nesses" in election cases find the
climate of Canada unhealthy soon
after an election, It was so West
Huron, among other instances. It
is pleasing, however to know, that
the sick in these cases generally re-
cover. Nevertheless, the absence of
material witnesses for the benefit of
their health so soon after an elec-
tion, looks suspicious.
WHY THEY COME.
An interesting article appears in
the current month's Review of Re-
views, accounting for the large
number of American farmers re-
moving to the Canadian Northwest,
It gives an illustration of a solid
train -load of emigrants from Cot-
tonwood county, Minnesota. In
1901, they crossed the border 20,-
000 strong; during the past four
months of this year the number
was 11,480, with effects valued at
one million dollars. The writer of
the article (an American) estimates
the number of American settlers
for Canada during 1902 at 40,000.
The article is worthy of reference,
and shows that Americans are be-
ginning to realize what awonderful
country Canada may become by the
proper development of her resour-
ces. We make the following ex-
tract from the article :•
—
The settlement of Canada's vast
vacant lands is, ,nevertheless, bare-
ly begun. There are, it has been
ascertained, in Northwestern On-
tario, in the province of Manitoba,
and it the territories of Alberta,
Assinaboia, and Saskatchewan, at
least 200,000,000 acres of farm
lands : over 250,000 square miles
of habitable • territory, of which
•probably seven=eighths are as yet
unoccupied. The possibilities are
great, the outlook most captivating
to adventurous Americans. Take
Manitoba as an object lesson. It
has within its bounds 47,322,840
acres, of which 6,329,000 are lakes
and 1,300,000 in timber reserves,
leaving 25,000,000 acres of cultiva-
table. land. Though Iast year only
2,952,002 acres of this territory
was under crop, so great was the
yield of wheat, barley, oats, and
other crops in the province and
neighboring territories; that the
railways were blocked for months,
and every available means of tran-
sit by land and water are yet busily
engaged in carrying the products
of the phenomenal harvests to the
world's markets.
The • writer then dilates on the
advantage to the American farmer
by emigrating to Canadian soil,
and significantly adds—
"So the Yankee is treking."
