The Congress and the President virtually

CANADA'S PROSPERITY.

The New York Times of March %,
1912, in an article dealing with Cana
da's progress, says:
"At the present moment eight ship.
loads of European immigrants are
af1oat for Canada, while there are
signs that the outward movement
which is customary with US during
labor troubles will be marked this
year. There is no such startling rec.
ord OF our loss to Canada. Our citi-
zens quietly slip over the border in
groups or trainloads, but their going
is not advertised.
There is no mystery why Canada
is the good thing the United States
used to be. It is because Canada is
following in its neighbours footsteps
that it is repeating the fortunate ex-
perience which its neighbor is envy.
ing, even while deliberately turning
its back on the teachings of the past.
A fortnight ago the Dominion budget
speech reported the unprecedented
surplus Of s39,0OO,O00, and on Thurs.
day the Government passed through
the Committee on Supply credits OF
$38,000,000 for railways and canals.
With this assistance the railways
themselves are both enabled and com
PEELED to increase their facilities. Ac-
cordingly we find single road allot-
ting ten millions for work Of it's own.
Naturally the Canadian newspapers
contain announcements calling for
fifty thousand men for construction
work. This influx is apart from those
Americans who go with money in their
pockets obtained by cashing in their
high-priced American lands.
"A ST. Paul dispatch says that with
in fortnight two thousand carloads
Of farm animals and machinery have
passed toward Canada, the property
of men who expect to pay for their
farms with the first crop"
