tion m-u.>'_t not -be prohibitive. for ih tion must not be-prohibitive. for in that case no revenue would be

fair Iproportione ‘of _frltQliit.`y and warmth for which .we must hope. Patriotic love for Canada and her free institutions, reverence and respect for the great men wtho have guided her footsteps from iii

in |Canada, in her present high status und her outlook toward

the future; the faith of every pro- vice in its sister province and 'in creased faith in the -future ot the

great British Empire oi’ which we form it part,--these are still need.

ed. This faith, rwhich wrongs no

at least. could now be swept clean und kept t~iean_ an the snow is all off and the wlnterls muck is all

Following this piece of evasive liticai strategy, .the miinorlty pre. pared and presented their report at the earltlest opportunity, at the opening of the session on the day following.
