• Redistribution,
The Borden Government gives as
an excuse for not having ah•eady
provided by redistribution for the
additional number of members to
which the Canadain West is entitl-
ed because of the incerase of popu-
lation, that there have been similar
delays in the past, but the Montreal
Witness answers this by stating
that the spirit of the la w,has al-
ways been kept, although the me-
thod has not been striotly follow-
ed.
The subjoined table shows in the
first column how many members
the western part of the country has
had in Parliament with the date
at which the increases wore Made!
The. second column shows the
'ill:Maher to which it was entitled on

This table indicates that up to the

ously over -represented becauusc

Laing the growth of populatiom A
pecial census was taken for this
urpose between 1901 and 1911 In
he latter year the Liberals went
ut of power before the returns of
he census were tabulated and
onsequently had no chance to
lake them effective.
In 1911 Me. Borden came Seto
ower and Muhl have passed a re-
istribution act, but failed to do so,
he second - session with this
oven:I/lent in power is pow well
dvanced, but there has been no
ttempt made to deal justly with
ie 'Western Provinces by way oT
edletribution. The grievance is a
sal and substantial one, because

s ever before the .Canadian

leasure of justice ought to have
een brought down at the emiliest
assible period in the session in
rder that if an appeal is made to
se electors the whole voice of the
ountry may be heard.
