CANADA'S CONGRESS.
MEASURES SOON TO COME BEFORE
DOMINION PARLIAMENT.

Much Work Planned For n short
Session - Demand For Change In
Divorce Laws-Premier Laurier to
Attend Coronation.
A short session is predicted for the
Canadian parliament, which opens at
Ottawa ON the second Thursday in
February. Propagation will probably
take place on or before May in order
to allow the prime minister, Sir Wilfrid
Laurier. ample time to prepare for his
trip to England to attend the corona
ton of King Edward in June. Sir Will
frid will be accompanied by most if not
all Of the provincial premiers-there are
eight of them-and picked escort OF
Canadian militia.
Recent byelections have resulted in
a considerable addition to the govern
ment's already large majority, giving
it the assurance that any measure that
it proposes can be successfully carried
against the combined opposition of its
political opponents.

that will come up at this session is that
of payment by Canada of the expenses
OF the third contingent. the first por-
ton Of which recently left Canada for
South Africa. The victory of the gov
ernment in the recent elections makes
1t clear that the great mass of the Eng
lish speaking people OF Canada strong
ly favor the idea that the Dominion
should pay the expenses Of its troops
operating against the Beers.
A strong effort is about to be made
TO bring back Canada's high standing
as shipbuilding nation. and one Of
the most important questions to come
before parliament will be the granting
of bounties to encourage that industry.
On the great lakes there are not at
present nearly enough Canadian YES
sells to handle its rapidly growing
grain trade, which has increased 20,-
100000 tons during the past ten years.
The government will be urged to
change its policy Of subsidizing foreign
built vessels and devote the money
heretofore spent in this way to aid
home shipbuilding.
The subject of fast Atlantic mail
service is likely also to be seriously
considered. Recent negotiations be-
tween the Canadian government and
the British colonial office seem to indi-
cate that the long standing difficulty as
to the amount of subsidy will be over
