THURSDAY, JUNE 21 l£l\'l0.

A MATTEH ‘UF Rl:PRESENTATl0N.

\\'c have long thought it regrettable that provision was made in the federal constitution whereby in the readjustnient

of representation after the census t:ik.i-ng the number of members assigned to a province may be, decreased. As is well known Quebec was made the pivot with u.

fixed representation of 65members, and where n Province increases in population

less -rapidly than Quebec it becomes liable to suffer loss of representation. In-this

way each of the three Maritime Provinces was deprived of one or more membersi n

the Commons as a result of the Census of ldll.

There seems reason to believe that

‘ Quebec has since 1891 increased in popula-

tion niore rapidly than eitherblew -Bruns- wick or,P. E. Island. P robably Quebecs

gain, owing to the better times has been

igreaterduringthc present decade thanin

the previous one, while it may be feared that our Island population has remained pretty nearly stationary, largely owillfl £0 an almost constant migration westward. If Quebec shall be found to have 1,650,000 people at next springs enumeration, as is now thought probable, and our Island

population is not in excess of 110,000 we shall stand to lose another representative,

thus reducing our share of the mem ber-

ship in ths Commons to four men.

It may be observed that whether we are

I to hold our present tive members or to

matter quite beyond the control of either

receive either blame or credit. It is

governed wholly by the Constitution of

The reported dismissal of Lieut. Gover-

ynor Mclnnis of British Columbia is the second instance of the kind since confeder-

)ation. In 1879 Sir John Macdona;ld’s 'cabinet dismissed Governor Letellier

St.Just of Quebec, who had been ap- pointed by the Mackenzie Government some years before. As the Constitution

provides that a. Governor may not be dis-

missed within five years from his appoint-

The Examiner calls it “the sham Pro-

'hibition Law" now. \Vhy this particular

enactment should be so hateful to our con-

-temporary that it must every day con- demn it we do not know. \Ve infer that

any temperance legislation that would be quite satisfactory to the Examiner and the saloons would not be worth very much to the community. We have noticed that the License Law of last year was by no means so severely condemned in that quarter as the Prohibitory Law of this year.

The American Congress has managed matters strangely with regard to armor

for its new wanships. A uumber of battle- sh ips were authorized in 1896, and were ready for launching in 1898, but a limit of $300 per ton for armor had been fixed and it was impossible to obtain it for even 50 per cent above those figures. Then, with the Spanish war on hand authority was given to purchase armor at any price but it could not be had at short notice andit

was actually contemplated to plate the ships with wood and send them to sea, the Scientific American says. Since then

more ships have been put under construc-

tion without provision being made for their armor, and it is only now that the deadlock has been broken and the plate will be at once ordered. By the contro- versy about tlie price of armor three battle ships have been delayed 18 months each, three 12 months, and six armored cruis-

ers for a year each. ,

Of the 427,374 miles of railway in the

world 203,138 miles, or nearly one half are
