count in the Province of Quebec was a
dishonest one intended to give it and
the French Canadians more than their
due share OF influence in Parliament
the Toronto Globe. a Liberal organ,
makes this reply:
1.-THE motion of a campaign against
French domination was so attractive
the cry had worked so we'll in Ontario
at the last general election, that it was
hard to abandon it even when the story
was completely disproVed by the census
returns. Some of the opposition jour
nails ignoring the really important fea-
ture of the returns, which is the growth
of the West, treat the matter as if it
were a contest between Ontario and
Quebec, and the latter had obtained
some unfair advantage. Now If there
had been anything abnormal or unex-
pected in the growth of Quebec there
would have been at least a basis of fact
for the uncharitable to work upon. AS
matter of fact. and we regret to say
it, the rate of increase in Quebec for
the last decade is less tharfin the dec
ade from 1871 to 1881
There is no doubt that, while the press
throughout the lenSIn ana pTeduLn Oh
the land has expressed discomfort with
the results of the 1901 census, the pro-
tests would have been much more
violent were they not repressed by a
Isense of national pride and fear of hurt
ing the country abroad. But among the
people the depression is deep. They
realize that despite the expenditure of
enormous sums for public works, such
as canals and railways and in subsidies
to private undertaking, the East has
made little real progress since con-
federation, and they can find small as
surance of Improvement in the future.

CANADA IS CRESTFALLEN.

The Sun prints a special from Ottawa
which shows that the census causes
great dissatisfaction in Canada. Only
in the West is there anything like the
increase in population that was expect
ed as a result of the expensive attempts
of the Government to induce immiSra-
ton The older provinces In the east
with the exception of Quebec, show IN
aapreciable growth, and one province
Prince Edward Island, has fallen Oil
in population in the last ten years.
The official figures for the whole
Dominion are 1885, $685. whereas popu-
Iation of at least $4,000 was confident
ly expected The new figures snow an
increase of only sos, 644 over the figures
of 1891 The great Protestant province
of Ontario, whose population was a.
l14,329 according to the 1891 census, mas

nrotests of the Conservative party IL.
that progressive part of the Dominion
are loud and bitter against Sir Wllfrio
I.aurier's Liberal administration.
They declare that the census belles
the boast of the Liberals as to the ceS-
sation of the exodus, and shows mat
Governments policy that tended 10
attract immigration or induce eXlies u

that the figures prove that under oit
WiIfrid's policy no new industries nave
been created and no new markets nave

The Liberal reply to complaints aoou'
the inconsiderable growth shown II
Ontario is that the Conservatives PAD

OF
TREES COMING
Great Planting for Preparation
for the Wet Seasons
Work.

When the wet weather comes and
there will be added to the 115, 900 various
kinds of trees in the Nuuanu valley
forest not less than $4,000 more. Most
of these trees are now being started in
boxes at the government nursery in
King street.
The entire force of the department is
now being used in the work of getting
ready for the wet season. There are
being made for use in this propagation
of trees nearly 1000 boxes, in which the
seeds may be given a start These
boxes are not large, the usual course
being to take the ordinary grocery box,
and cut ii down in height until there
are three boxes. This gives sufficient
earth to cover the seeds and warm them
so that there viii be rapid germina-
ton. The seeds have been collected
with great care and there seems to be
every reason to believe that there will
be close upon 100000 young trees started
before it is time to set them out.
This is indicated as we'll from the
fact that the average number of seeds
planted in each box is close to 100.
Some of the seeds lend themselves to
close and others to wider planting.
There will be in the number more than
a half dozen varieties Of trees. For in
stance there will be a great number OF
Acacias The Eucalyptus will be added
in large numbers and there will be
also many ironwood, which have been
secured from the south. There will be
as well several thousand Koa trees, and
the sandalwood of the old days will
have a liberal representation in the
list of the sprouts. There Will be too
Japan cedars and Camphorwood and
some. teak and other woods, the desire
being to make the Nuuanu forest a
typical one in every way.

Showed Her Heels to Speedy
Lot of Third Classers
Yesterday.

In order to find out which is the fast
est of the third class yachts a race was
sailed yesterday in which five of the
boats that competed in the Regatta Day
fiasco took part. They were the Sham

Skip brought up the rear of the pro-
cession.
The Myrtle and the Pirate kept the
lead until the spar buoy was passed.
shortly after which the Shamrock III
and Vi-ke crawled up and went to
windward of them. The Pirate tackled
first, closely followed by the Shamrock
III and the Vi-ke. The Myrtle was ap-
parently looking for a stronger breeze
out to sea.
The Shamrock III retained the lead
and rounded the Waikiki stake-boat
first, the Yi-ke being second, Pirate
third, and Skip fourth. The Myrtle,
being hopelessly behind, gave the race
up. Shamrock III led all the way from
the spar buoy to the finish her time on

Criticism of President Roosevelt for
being in the Adiropdacks when Presi-
dent Mckinley died failed to take &C
count of his peculiar position. A Vice
President was once described by Roscoe
Conkling as man waiting Tor luh-
eral and the gibe has sting of truth.
Mr.. Roosevelt probably felt that II ne
stayed within reach of the yellow re
porters they would be sure to misrep-
resent him; and that he was in dan
ger, with them as his interpreters, OF
either UNDERGOING or overriding his
natural grief. SO he buried himself in
the woods until the consequences OF
Czolgosz's murderous deed should shape
themselves.

1t is again proposed to run railroad
through British Columbia and Alaska
to connect with the trans-Sioer!an line.
That such a road will ever be built is
doubtful owing to the immense dis

further fact that trans-Pacific steamers
could easily underbid it as a carrier OF

WOOL.

BOSTON, April 3.-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter will say of
the wool trade tomorrow:
The week just passed has been re-
markable, not only because of the
because these sales have been made
with no quotable effect upon the price
in either direction. There is felt to be
a certain amount of firmness, a re-
fusal on the part of sellers to make
any great concessions in terms but on
the other hand there is equal determ-
ination on the part Of buyers not to
pay any more for wool than he has
been giving for the past few weeks.
The bulk of the buying of the past
week has come from worsted mills
pretty largely to fine and fine medium
territory. Buyers have included suca
concerns as the American Wooden
Company, which has been a large buy
err, Arlington mills, Pacific mills and
Walsuck Company. They have bought
largely but carefully with an eye to
quality as well as price.
The sales for the week in Boston
amounted to 1926, 900 pounds domes-
tic and 1e0, 900 pounds foreign, making
a total of IL, 4S5 600 against a total Of
e,s97, 600 for the previous week and a
total of 2.714.O00 for the corresponding
week last year. The sales since jan
uary 1st amounted to 65.126, 900 pound
against 1923. 600 pounds for the cor
responding time last year.
