(By the Canadian Press) With the Ontario provincial elections .set for October 30 a review of the composition of the legislative assembly since the province entered Confedr e ration In 1847 la interesting. Seventeen legislatures have come .and gone in Ontario. Nine different administrations have been in power.

The standing at dissolution on September 16 was: Conservative, 75; Liberal, 20; Prograssivts, 11; UFO., 3; vacant, 3. Following are the Ontario administrations since Confederation: 1. Hon. J. S. Macdonald, premier, July 10, 1367, to December I9r 1871 Unionist. 2. Hon. E. Blake, premier, December 20, 1871. to October 25. 1872. Liberal. 3. Hon.

They are the logical outcome of the co-operative movement, being co-operation of capital for mutual protection and to give better service . As long as they restrict themselves to their legitimate field of operations they are a benefit to the world, but when they go outside and try to influence nations in their actions so that those actions may benefit the activities of the corporations, then it is time to call a halt If it is true that the shipbuilding firms of America have been a powerful influence against an understanding with Great Britain for the purpose of curtailing naval expenditures, the shipbuilding firms ought to be put in their place. If is often stated that commercial interests have been responsible for many of the wars in which Great Britain has been involved . To what extent this is true is largely a matter of inference, but, in any event, it is time a stop was put to corporation influence in such national activities. In Canada the corporations wield a very powerful political influence and they have to be watched, in order to head off any attempt to stampede the country into something which may benefit the corporations but not the people as a whole. AIDS TO IMMIGRATION It is a curious psychological fact that people want that1 which is kept from them and discard that which it is attempted to thrust on them . This is true of immigration . If Canada were to take the same stand as the United States and refuse admission to immigrants except such as were wanted here, there would be a tendency to want to come and people would then pay their own way instead ofJiav-ing to be helped. . . . .. If Canada is not a good enough country to attract peo ple from other countries without paying them to come, we strongly feel that they should be allowed to remain in their own countries . While we need population, needdi velopment, need capital, we do not need to sfehd huge gums of money to bring people here who have not enough energy and thrift to save the necessary money to come of their own volition . By this method we are not getting the best . We are getting the ne'er-do-wells and the spendthrifts. While giving encouragement in the way of providing lands at the lowest possible prices, we are wholly opposed to the method of assisting people to come to Canada . We offer the opportunity and it is up to the immigrants to do the rest. Canada is a good country and we have every faith in her future, but when we spend large sums to bring second-class immigrants here we are admitting that the country may not be just as good as we indicate. mier, February 8, 1905, to September 25, 1914.

Counsel's Pleadings In his address to the Jury, L. W. Patmore. defence counsel, stressed the unreliabilities and discrepen-cies in the evidence of BJornhofe, the chief crown witness. He urged that the story of accused that the steering wheel of his car had jam-med was a reasonable account of the accident. Other and more dan- ; gerous parts of the road he had, successfully negotiated, showing that he was on the alert and In i control of his faculties. An error of judgment could not be construed as negligence. He asked the' Jury to take reasonable doubt In- j to account arr acquit his client. ! A. M. Johnson K.C., crown coun-; ael. asked the jury to disregard a number of false issues that had' been brought in and decide wheth- i w the deceased had lost his life' through fault of the accused. He asked who was more Interested In telling or denying the truth. He referred to the fact that previous-; ly accused naa oeen evasive . enough to trv and lay the blame' for manslaughter on another man and then try to suggest that the dead men themselves had been responsible. Accused had also ta-i ken $4 from BJornhofe for gas for an 18-mile drive, receiving much more than vslue given. This went: to show the type of the boy. If the steering wheel had really locked Mr. Johnson asked would It not have been the reasonable thing, for accused to have said an rfoht at the start Instead of attempting other excuses. He felt that accused had not excerclzed due care Saturday, September 28. 192 "IVhen we are married Why, what will you do?" WOMAN has every rightito aiVthiiuetlon ofttKe "man. who wishes to marry her. When a man marries, he gives up nothing. The woman, possibly, gives up a comfortable home, a good job and a certain economic independence. What Is her compensation? Very possibly she becomes a hard working wife and mother, without pay. If death comes riding and gathers up the husband, she may be left with the care and financial worry of a young family. It's well to give presents to a bride, but many a bridegroom might better give hi bride a Life Insurance Policy for a few thousand dollars. Such a gift is the true measure of his intention to provide until death and beyond. Write for pamphlot entitled "Protection at a Low Rate of Premium." It is quite interesting.
