It is believed that British compavies held the policies. —The people of Canada are now paying twelve and a half millon dollars more in taxes to the Government of Canada than they ever paid before ! —The bulk of our bay crop has been secured in good order—and it was a better crop, upon the whole, than some persons thought that it would be. —In 1896 the expenditure of the Gov- ernment of Canada, per head of the popu- lation, amounted to $8.14; in 1899 to $9.72. In 1896 the extravagant Tories were in office; in 1899 the Liberals, par excellence, who promised to reduced the expenditure by $3,000,000 or $4,000,000 a year. —The Liberals have had their oppor~ tunity—a grand opportunity— to reform the Goverument of Carada as they prom- ised to do—and they have missed it. There is now more corruption im the ad- ministration of public affairs than ever, higher expenditure than ever, more taxes paid than ever, a heavier deb: than ever. Turn them out. —According tothe London Times the figures given by Mr. Brodrick in parlia- meat show that the Cuinese are in possess sion of extensive supplies of guns and ammunition. Since 1895, firms in Great Britain have furnished the Chinese gov- ernment with 71 guns of position and 11,~ 749 rounds of smmuonicion; 123 field guns and 40,400 rousde; and 297 machine guas with over four n.iliion rounds, — Tue exports of the Uuited States dur- ing tbe last fiecal year exceeded those of! 298 99 hy $317,749;.250 ne less than $95, | 608,000 of this being in manufactures. ‘'ne Montreal Gazette aptly remarka’that to eome who have been accepting what has been said about the development of Canae da’s foreign trade, the singular thing about this remarkable record wil! be thet Sir Wilfrid Laurier had nothing to do with it. —One who knows” writes to contradict the statement of a correspondent of The Patriot, to the effect that the survey of the Belfast and Murray Harbor has been com- pleted. But our cerrespondenit thinks that “it will be completed when Bir Louis comes home.” We shall see. As to the grading, the Same correspondent says: They nave graded the road, in spots, up to Village Green; but past that there is nothing done.” Montreai Gazette: Tie secret of the trip to Paris of Sir L.
