DEPOPULATION OF ONTARIO.
(Forest Free Press )
Several of the leading journals of the
province are discussing the depopulation
of Ontario,a question of vital importance
at the present time.
While Canadians generally are rejoic-
ing and rejoicing with perfeot propriety
over the wonderful development of the
Went, thoughtful people are beginning
to ask tnemseives what is to be the ef-
fect on Ontario of the heavy drain on
,.her best blood and brains which the
West is making.
For several weeks now the country
correspondeuts of our exchanges have
been telling of farewell parties, addres-
ses and presentations to promising young
roan and women who are leaving for
the Weat. The exodus has been remark-
able. Now, farewell parties and ad-
dresses and presentations are not the
• marks of respect which the community
bestows upon the unworthy and the ine
oapable, on the drones and the ne'er-do.
wells. These men and women who are
leaving the rural sections, and the villa-
ges and towns and cities as well, are
among the best that the country produc-
es. Judged by the tributes paid by
the correspondents they are the very
people whom, the community can least
afford to lose.

slam', and lacking largely in the power
of self.heip, can adjust themselves readi•
ly to a rural life, and the result of the
influx is likely to be an increase of the
poor and dependent element in Oana-
dtau business centres, -Windsor Record.
The result of the G3vernment's action
undoubtedly wit be to greatly curtail
the agitation for local option, which has
recently gained each force in Ontario.
Whether so intended or not, this is the
compensation which the licensed victual-
lers will receive in return for the higher
license fees which•the Government is ex-
acting, and they are certainly not gett-
ing the worst of the deal. -Brantford
Expositor.
However this may be, the temperance
psople have probably learned a lesson.
They were not satisfied with the pro-
gress made by a Government which
seemed'really desirous of meeting their
wishes as fast as circumstances would
permit. They insisted on a change, and
now, by their own evidence, they are
worse off than they were before. They
have lost ground that they had gained
years ago. -Woodstock Sentinel -Review.
Why are they going? Ontario is not
over -crowed. Farmers atilt complain
that they cannot obtain sufficient help
for the proper working of their land.
Among large employers of skilled and
other labor in towns and cities there is
no complaint that the supply is greater
than the demand. The Boil is not play-
ing out; it is still rich and fruitful. la
many places it is only just opened up.
Why are the people leaving? Evidently
because the fever hat caught them.
There may he other explanations, but
this is the one that is most apparent.
What will the effectbe on Ontario?
For a time,at Ieast,itcannot but beharm-
ful. Immigration is doing something to
fill the please of those who are leaving.
But even the very beat immigration that
comes from the British Isles is but an
