Ex- travagance and corruption were also freely charged againt the late admistration by tae Grit press, and the people were led to believe that such things really existed. A change in rulere has taken has heen the Ina little over a year there have been so many suspicious transactions that even the Grit press cannot keer silent. The Dundas Banner, the Simcoe Reformer? the Huntington Gleaner and the Goderich Signal have been the most outspoken along this Ime. The Dundas Banner in the course of a recent article said :
“There will be just as many efforts made to rob the public chest while it is in the hands of the Reform party as there were when it was in the hands ot the Cor - servatives. Weall remember what Alex= ander Mackenzie said about having to watch the public chest night and day f om friends as well as foes. It is always tue way.
““Wrongdoing is wrongdoing no matter what the colorof the party stripe on its back may be. If we intend to condone and excuse in our trieuds that which we con- demned in our opponents we shall be un- worthy of our places. What is more, we aball be false guides to our party and traitors to our country.
“There are just as many leeches seeking for blood under Grit rule as there were under Tory rule.”
Notwithstanding all the preaching of the Grit press during the past seventeen years it seems that curruption still exists in the Liberal ranke, and that the eame necessity exists for watching the public chest as existed in the days of Mackenzie. With the immaculate Tarte in the Cabinet and at the head of the chief spending
department this is not surprising.

BRITISH EMIGRATION.
Tue latest British emigration returns indicate that before long Canada will re- ceive a larger share of attention at the
hands of the emigrant than she has received in the past. The returns show that the total]
number of emigrants during the month of July was $13,205, a slight increase over the figures for the same month last year. Of those who emigrated 2,377 were destin- ed for Canada, compared with 1,894 during the same month of last year. This differ
ence of 483 in one month seems _to show_ that the resources cf Canaia
are becoming better koown abroad, and as this knowledge increases there must be a corresponding increase in the number of people coming to her shores. In this connection it may be pointed out that emigration to the United States does not appear to be on the increase. Indeed the returns from which we have already quoted show tbat the coutrary is the case, the number for last July being 7,824 as compared with 8,298 in the same month of the previous year.

Finally they decided to trace the source of the oil, andthey found a real lake of crude petroleum fed by more than fifty springs. Johnston found good authracits coal nearat hand. He has organized a company and proposes in September to begin the development of the find. He says :
“There is a fortune in it for everybody concerned, and the beauty of it is there 1s only a mile anda half of piping to lay from our lake of oil to where we propose to build ten 20,000 gallon tanks for stor- age purposes Close to tide water, with a fall of seventy feet tothe mile, obviating tbe necessity of pumping.

KLONDIKE GULD FIELDS.
Another Small Party Eeturrs From Gold Fields With their Piles.
Vieroria, B. C., Aug. 23.—Definite information has been received here ofa big find of gold near the Stewart River in the Klondike district, rumors of which have been prevalent for some time.
W.A. Hindle, of Juneau, received a letter from James O’Brien, dated Klon- dike, June 22nd, in which the writer says: 4 new strike has been made on a creek sixty miles above Klondike, near Stewart River. Forty-seven pounds of gold have been taken out of a discovery hole. As in the case in & mining country, no matter
the
how widely distribute’, news rapidly | 300 by 50 feet in size, with tens of thous- spreads. Those who had fuiled to strike | 80d of barrels of cil in sight. The sup-
ply of oil and coal ts practically inexhaust- ible, and the middle of September will see the work of development actively under wav.”
Johnston’s discovery is in close proxim- ity to one of the num r»# rms ot Prince William Sound. Itis the company’s in- teation to take out 500 barrels of petroleum bext month as a starter, and by next spring have a line of tank steamers in Operation to CcOuvev oil to Seattle, where the retinery is to Le built.
Endorsed by the English Navy
it rich at the Klondike were rushing for the new diggings. As the letter was being written 150 men were -tarting froin the Klondike for Stewart River just as hopeful as when they took part io the rush to Eldorado and Bonanza Creeks.”
The find on the Stewart River was nut the only good news from the interior brought out by Mr. O’Brien’s letter. He says all tributories of the Klondike River are proving rich beyond report.
< dams Creek is the only one condemned by ‘he writer. This beare out the conten- tion that has been held by many men that there was no reason whv_ other creeks should nat prove just ax rich ax Eidorado and Bonanza, out of which millions have already been taken. Mr. O’Brien adds that grub will be scarce before winter is over.
Vicrorta, B.C., Aug. 21.—Another equad of returning Klondike gold seekers is reported from Comox, on the Northern part of Vancouver Island, this time on board the George E. Starr, aemall side wheel steamer lately pressed into service on the Seattle-Dyea route. The Star called at Comox yesterday to coal, and reports baving asa passenger a Seattle man with $16,000 in gold dust, the results of this season’s work, which is the largest amount credited toany one man inso shorva time.
Four Victoria boys, who left here last May and who are returning by the Starr have a sack of $25,000 in nuggets,between them. The steamer made but a short stay and passed on to Seattle.
