Proceeding by way of Grand Bend

is little used, largely :because the

are almost impassable. Some paint

Fuel Problem of
Ontario and Quebec
An Issue
Government Officials are Considering
Question—Good Subject for Dis-
cussions Beneath the Chimes—Al-
berta Coal not Likely to be
Brought East.
Ottawa, Dec, 16,—ViTith winter
here the fuel problem in Ontario and
Quebec again becomes a live' issue.
For several sessions of the federal
parliament, there have been full
dress debates on making Canada in-
dependent of the United States for
have been appointed by the federal
government and the provincial gov-
ernments of Alberta and Ontario to
solve this problem. The railway
commission- investigated and report-
ed on the met of transportation of
coal from Alberta to Ontario, yet
with all this discussion and inquiry
little progress has been made in pro-
curing for Ontario a coal supply in-
dependent of the United States, but
the outlook is brighter for the ac-
complishment of this purpose in
Quebec.
Among transportation experts and
informed government officials the
prospect -of supplying Ontario with
econimlcally unsound and , for the
present at least, impracticable. With-
out this is made a national necessity,
and a part of the cost borne by the
whole Dominion these experts claim
there is little or no possibility of any
practicable accomplishment. Trans-
portation companies are not favor-
able to the "carrying coal ae cost"
proposal, claiming this would of
necessity burden other commodities
with increased freight charges. If
the federal government, and the
provinces of Ontario and Alberta
jointly bore a porton of the trams
portation charges, then the solution
of Ontario's fuel pro:Amiss is in sight
but there are six other provinces
that must be considered in any such
proposal.
Parblem in Quebec.
The fuel problem. it Quebec pre-
sents less difficulty than in Ontario,
although the Montreal city council
has forwarded the government a
unanimous resolution asking "that
the Dominion government be rn'ged
to take immediate ete-ps which will
result in the establishment of rated
that will enable Canadean coal to be
carried on Canadian railways and
sold at a favorable figure even in a
competitive market.
The resolution begins by declaring
that the people of Canada pay the
United States annually the sum of
$100,000,000 for coal and coke. It
further sets out that the only ob-
staele to the full use of Alberta coal
of all kinds within the country is. (sat-
isfactory railway rates, and that the
railway commission has decided Al-
berta coal can 'be carried eo Ontario
at cost without loss to the railways
and without a :federal subsidy,
Coal statieties show that the, Nova
Scotia and British mines are replac-
ing American coal in the Quebec
market. The total importations of
coal into Quebec for the nine months
ending September 80, was: Anthra-
cite 1,187,157 tons, and bituminous
1,305,814 tons, a total of approxim-

United States. The great coal prob-
a development of mine, forest and
river resources without pnealle1 in
ham is in Ontario. Quebec can in a
great measure -be rendered inde-
pendent of the United States coal,
but without there is an improved
water route from Nova Scotia to To-
ronto or a much cheaper coal rate
from Alberta, Ontario must remain
dependent on the United Stats e for
both anthracite and bituminous.
Ftie- the nine-month- period all
Canada imported 14,796,482 tons of
coal, chiefly for the Ontario market.
During the same period this coun-
t*, exported 813,562 tons, or which
Nova Scotia shipped 387,152 tons,
and British ,Columb-ia 366,908. The
total domestic coal production for the
nine months periodwas 12,318,851
tons, or approximately two and a
half million tons less than we im-
ported. Of this amount Alberta pro-
duced 4,619,235 tons during the nine
months, -Saskatchewan 256,951 tops,
Nova Scotia 5,293,013 tons, British
Columbia 1,990,358 tone, and Now
Brunswick 154,294 tons . During
September the coal mining industry
gave employment to 28,093 persons.
Some Wedding
Superstitions
Married when tise year is new,
He'll be loving, kind and true.
When February birds do mate,
You may wed nor dread your fate.
If you wed when March winds blow,
Joy and sorrow both you'll know.
Marry in April when you can,
Joy for maiden and for man.
Marry in the month of May,
And you'll surely rue the day.
lilarry when June roses blow,
Over land and sea you'll go.
They who in July do wed,
Must always labor for their bread.
Whoever wed in Augnelt be. .
Many a change is pure to see,
Marry in September shine,
Your living will be rich and fine.
If in October you do marry,
Love will come, but riches tarry.
If you wed in black November,
Only joy will come, remember.
When December snow falls fast,
Marry, and true love will last.
Monday for health.
Tuesday for wealth,'
Wednesday the ,best day of all,
Thursday for losses,
Friday for crosses,
And Saturday no day at all.

potential water powers on the Nel-
son and Churchill river , says Mr.
Young, are three times as great as
the power now delivered from Ni-
agara Falls, and all Ontario hIlOW,
what that has meant to this province.
It is to be hoped that in the e de-
velopments the federal and the pro-
vincial governments will not be too
eager to grant concessions without
due concern for the public weal. In
the light of past experiences it,
ought to be possible to frame and
enforce regulations which will avoid
the necessity of battles at a later
period over questions of public and
-private rights. The latter, of course,
should be as carefully guarded as
any other, 'under proper conditions.
What the country wants to see is a
unity of interests, public and pri-
vate, so that there will be real devel-
opment of resources, and not a ty-
ing up of potential wealth through
bickerings and .misunderstandings
and legal strife that could be all
avoided by care at this time.
