'retrospect of the go vth"of of r
ion will, be of l iterest. We:surely'have
reason for the. pride we feel over our fair
young country and for the hopes we
cherish for future prosperity.
Since the first Dominion Day'—July
1, 1867 -=Canada has increased in pop -
illation a million and a half.
Our Dominion contains the " choicest
I .nds known in the world, and is rapidly.
being settled by a healthy; moral class
of immigrants from our own zone so that
acclimatization is easy and the ground
work of a strong christain nation is be-
ing surely laid and our country's pros-
,perity assured.
More satisfactory still has been the
progress in material development. In
1867 all the real estate in Ontario was
valued at $238,000,000; to-day`farm. lands
alone are worth $810,000,000, while stock
and implements add another $170,000,-
-000 to the wealth possessed by the agri-
culturists, of the Province. Tsventy-
three years ago the number of horses in
Ontario was only 877,000 and of cattle
1,014,000; now the figures ars 680,000
and 2,029,000 respectively.
Turning to the Dominion at large
there is a showing that is also cause for
;gratification. The foreign trade of the
=country has increased $130,100,000 in
`07 to nearly $250;000,000 in '93. The
assets- of chartered banks in Canada
!have increased in the same time from
178,000;000 to $303.000,000, and the da-
p'ositsfrom $32,000,000 to $166,000,000.
The amount of life insurance in force
he 1569 was only $85,600,000; while now.
''it it3 W279,000,000. In the same period
- the sum (received for fire insurance
premiums has jumped from $1,785,000
a.year to $6,715,000.
'Lar railway interests in 1867 were
insignificant, whereas now we have 15,-
000 miles in operation carrying over
thirteen and a half million people every
year, with annual earnings approaching
$52,000,000.
In '74 we only exportedi 63 head of
cattle; last year we seat ver 100,000,
and in the same period our cheese .ex-
ports have increased 300 per cent, All
:the figures show a growth that 12
-really phenomenal.
And our people have improved morally
even more rapidly than the country has
developed materially. In this Province
:he number of places in which liquor is
sold has been reduced during the past
twenty.one years from 5,450 to 3,347,
and the committals for drunkenness
-have been lowered from 8,888 in '76 to
2,736 in '92, Nor is this improvement
confined to one province, as is shown by
the fact that the number of offences
against the person in all Canada was
only 725 in '92 as against 920 in 1882,,
and bythe further fact that murders in
tlie:seme, period have fallen from 29 to
18.Ter annum.
There isN no country in the world
-where there is less of the evils resulting
from extreme riches on the one hand
and extreme poverty on the other; there
is none where there is less suffering in
- --eroportaion to population, from actual
vaLt, and there is none where the people
are so law-abiding; and industrious.
Faith in ourselves, vigor in -the develop-
ment of our boundless resources and the
adoption of sounder fiscal methods now
assured will cause the next quarter of
a century to give the fulfilment of which
the progress of the past, great as that
progress undoubtedly has been, is but
the promise,
