THE: INTERCOLONIAL RAILWAY.

It seems impossibls for the journals and

politicians of inland Canada to take a com-

-mon sense view of the Intercolonial Rail-i

way and the Government Railway system

in general. In the first place they are disposed to treat the Intercolonial as a railway built for the Maritime Provinces exclusively, and to hold these Provinces chargeable with the cost of construction and maintenance. The reverse of this is true. ln all its aspects as a national highway and a through route the Inter-

colonial is of more importance and a

nearly half the year it affords to the Cen tral Provinces their only outlet to the sea over Canadian soil. The Eastern Provin-

ces have the advantage of its local service _ and that is all.

The canals of the Central Provinces cost

a good deal more than the Intercolonial, and are of little or no value to the Eastern Provinces at all. These canals do not

pay their operating expenses, _but Liberals

and Tories alike view with the greatest equanimity the expenditures of millions

yearly in enlarging these waterways, and the inevitable hundreds of thousands

of yearly delicits, while they are sensitive to the last degrbe in regard to any needed outlay on the Intercolonial or any defl- ciency in its revenue. In this respect their judgment is not just or reasonable.

Fortunately the Intercolonial is now pay- illll iw 0D€1`Btir1g‘ expenses, and in that regard doing better than the canals. Whether it will continue to do so when

the grip of commercial depression falls

upon us again will depend upon the ability and economy with which it is

anaged, but we think its chances are

In an article in the A.i§gr\ist number of the Fortniglitly Review §»3ir John Colomli advocates the estalilishiiient ofnaval ship-

building yards, arseiiiilii, supply depots and large garrisons in Cfriaflii and Austra- lia. He argues with much force that for a. world-wide Empire it is both inconvenient ‘ and unwise to wholly centralize the man-

ufacture of allnaval and military equip- ment and supplies in the British Islands. It seems that in these clay armies and navies must be, and the point on the world’s surface where next a naval or mil- itary force may be urgentlyrequired is un- certain. The Empire is too vast to be longer dependent upon a single centre of

creation and supply for all that pertains to making war.

In Canada we have even a better loca-

tion of the raw materials for building ships of war, or casting cannon than is found in the United States. Coal and J iron are abundant, and close beside each

other on our coasts. We have, besides, immense deposits of nickel. which is re

garded as indispensable for making the

Lord Wolseley is not afraid to speak

plainly, if the cable reports him correctly. No doubt the best British' troops are abroad in South Africa, China and India, and yet it is surprising that the 30,000 men reviewed by the Commander 'ln Chief at Aldershot should be open to su ch censure as he delivered. He is reported to have said they were badly led, badly in structed and utterly uiiflt to send abroad. If this is truth it is doubtless best that the

truth should be stated. In such plain speaking by the head of the army lies the hope of early and radical reform and im- provement.

` It seems probable _that the Allies have

reached Pekin and relieved the imprison- ed Ministers. This, if true, will at once reliave the tension of anxiety in Europe. lt may be that a settlement can now be

peffectefl without much more serious tight-' liug, but at this writing our information is too scant and contradictory to warrant

auy forecast that would be of value.
