'The measure, fetid fir. gums:, 'wig -It is said that in the neighborhood of 400,000 acres of land in the North- west will be irrigated by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company during the coming season. The reclaimed lands are sold at $15 per acre and up- wards. • -Including thesection from Port- age la Prairie to Touchwood Hills, and the Fort William branch, on which work has been in progress since August and September last, respec- tively, a total mileage of 932 miles is now under contract by the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway Company. 4•* - --It is stated that the lines to be constructed by the C. P. R. during 1906 will total in the neighborhood. of 900 miles, including the Toronto -Sud- bury line, the Guelph-Goderich line, the double tracking between Fort William and Winnipeg and the con- strnetion of branches throughout the prairie section. Upwards of 2,000 men are already at work on new lines for this company, and it is estimated that an expenditure of about $25,000,- = 000 would be necessary for further projected construction and addi- tions. R„ -The first division in the Commons for the present session was on a mo- tion by Mr. Andrew Broder, of Dun- das, for recognition by Canada of the serviees of the Canadians who had suffered disability in the service of the Empire in South Africa. These men receive a small pension at present from the Imperial Government, 3fr. Broder made an effective presentation of the ease, but the Government re- fused to allow the brave Canadians recognition, on the plea that they had gone out expressly as Imperial soldiers and that therefore it was not a proper eourse for the Canadian Government to supplement the Imperial pension. The motion was rejected on a division of 97 to 59, or a majority for the Gov- ernment of 38. Thousands of dollars for graft, thousands for old and useless Senators, thousands for pensions for millionaires once members of the Cabinet ; Judges positions and salaries for members of the Cabinet whose "health" fails, but nota dollar for the brave volunteers who risked their lives in defence of the Empire. We notice by the division list that Dr. Chisholm, the representative of East Huron, voted "Yea" on Mr. Broder's motion. A rase in point is that of Trooper Molloy, aman of more than ordinary ability, who started out with high aims and a strong purpose of being a man in the world. He saw fit, as a matter of duty, to enroll himself as a South African volunteer, and while in the service, lost both eyes. This young man is sadly handicapped for the rest of his life. True, he gets a pension of 60 cents a day from the British Government, but not a cent from the Government of his own country. So far as they are roteehed he may look nut for himself. THE NEW LICENSE BILL, Ta x ° eel IID eve the thief paints Gf the ..: ve Lit ease Bili, introduced into the "Legieletute by .i;I,n. W. J. Hann. One fent u re is :a substaintial inet-ease to enable the Government to carry out its policy of strict enforcement of the ligttor laws. It provided against frantl, and it provided against tied houses. The clause in the old Act permitting hotels to serve liquors to guests in the dinning -room is omitted front the new one, The fee for hotels in 'Toronto will be $1,200, and for shops $1,000. Bartenders in cities and towns will be licensed with a nominal fee of $2, and their Iicenses will be transferable from town to town. Doctors' orders for liquor on Smiley aa meet contain full particulars of the case. '\Vhen an hotel -keeper is convicted of three offences within three years the license is to be cancelled. Inspec- tors must report whether the offence is the first, second, or third, and if the proper officials do not cancel the license, anyone can take action. Provision is made for the imposition of heavy fines in case of all breaches of the act, applying to bartenders as well as to proprietors.. The new act shall go into force on May 1st. The Toronto News says :-"The new License Bill marks agreat step for- ward in the regulation of the liquor traffic in Ontario, The measure will not be satisfactory to extreme pro- hibitionists, but we imagine, will have the cordial support of the great body of the people. The measure is sane, strong and progressive." Hon. G. W. Ross, leader of the Op- position, generally approved the bill, as being in the interests of temper- ance. The Government will not press the clauses in the new Liquor License Act relating to the selling of liquor on boats and trains, and to the two-year term for local option. These are two of the features of the bill to which most objection has been taken by the advocates of temperance reform, The law in this respect will probably be left as at present. ...s d' BUDGET SPEECH. On Tuesday of last week, Hon. A. J. Matheson delivered his second Bud- get speech in the Legislature. The following are the chief points in it. Total receipts for 1905, $6,016,176 ; total expenditures, $5,390,016; surplus, $620,000. Estimated receipts for 1906, $5,021,- 2S7 ; expenditures, $5,84000. Under business methods the income of Asylum Department exceeded the estimates by $38,000. Timber dues exceeded the estimates by $432,000; succession duties by $234,000, and fees on charters, $30,- 000. The total cost of constructing 253 miles of Teiuiskaming Railway to the Abitibi River will be $9,060,000, or $1,- 000,000 more than it should have cost. The railway's earnings this year will pay interest, provide it sinking fund and pay a dividend of one-half per cent. The Canadian market is not good for more than two or three millions on loans of the class of the Temiskatn- ing bonds. The offer accepted by the Govern- ment for $1,0,000 was $50,000 better than the one nearest it. The estimated revenue for 1906 is $5,921,287.2S, and the expenditure on ordinary account $5,625,543.15. The payments on railway certificates, an - unities and University certificates will bring this up to $5,558,000. A new loan of some two million dol- lars will be offered in Canada next summer and the Treasurer expressed his belief that it would be taken up in the Province.
