people. Whenever complications have arisen
and the imperial authorities have not known
what ought 10 be done a royal commission has
been appointed tor the purpose Of conducting
a special investigation. The universities have
persevered in their courses Of classical reading
and mathematical study and have not inter

Of the new imperialism. That has been consid-
cred matter Of detail for the civil service and
the great administrative Offices. The universi-
ties, with the same lack Of hexibility which is
the most noticeable English characteristic. have
not recognized their own responsibilities in the
training and equipment of educated men for
the complex work of governing vast empire.
They have remained stronghoIds Of insular
conservatism. out Of touch with the progressive
Tendencies Of a workaday empire
American colleges have been forced 10 !nep

Is denied IN recent decision Of your Court OF A.
peals do not know what the text OF your

must assume that the judgment 0f the Court of
Appeals is correct Interpretation of it
Allow ne TO say that II Ontario. for more than
a generation all municipal assessment rcIls and
tax rolls have been open the Inspection Of every
ratepayer, and, further. that any ratspayer. by
express enactment. may appeal rot only from the
assessment OF MS own property. but from that o.
any one else, on the ground that II is too high OF
too low; and, still further. that for years
now the final court Of appeal in such matters Cthe
county judge need Tot on appeal tx the assess
ment OF any real estate at its real value, bur may
tx + relatively 10 the assessed values OF other
properties in the ueiEhbCrhOOd so IS TO place the
burden Of taxation equtab!y upon all rat payers
The theory there is that each IS bound

proportion 70 -he value of his property. and that
IL would be absurd 10 conceal frCrI any
contributing the amount which others are required
10 contribute il would be 10 refuse member Os
unlimited partnership access 10 the books and

In working this theory none Of the evils
which appear 10 be dreaded here have been de-
