It was a struggle between: pliitoci'ats-â€"Ii'isli and English laiidlordsw and the men who occupied the land and asked a fair share,of its fruits.

In consequente of the award not having been completed hint session the Bill which was then intrnduccd was with- drawn. It was proponed that the money should he raised by debentures charged on the revenues of the Park with a guarantee by the Provinpn. There was no ground for doubting that the revenues Would be amply sufficient to pay all expenses, to pay the interest on the deben- tures and to provide a «inkingy fund. The Hon. '0. Mowat, in moving the House into committee on' the whole on the resolution regarding the Queen Victoria Niagara Falls Park, said that the Falls of Niagara had for many years been the most attractive place of resort on this continent. and that the in- terest in them was extending. In a single day they were visited by ten thousand people, and they Were visited annually by from 200.000 to 300,000 people. Even before the State of New York took posses- sion of the. park the number ‘of, visitors was between 100,000 and 200,000 persons. A still more remarkable proof of the general interest in the Falls was afforded by the actimi of the pee 1c of the State of New .. York. They ha lately purchased over‘ me acres of land in the neighborhood of the Falls for an International Park, and had paid about 51.500000 for theland. This was all the more remarkable when it wa‘ remembered that the revenues of the St 9 are raised by direct taxation, so that the people, in a State where manhood suf- frage prevails, had voluntarily taxed them- selves for this amount. in order to restore the scenery about the Falls. All the nevvs- papers and all the parties had supported the movement. It was a no-party move- ment there, as here. In Ontario, too, there had been no opposition to any step that had been taken; his hon. friends opposite had manifested as much interest inthc project as had the Government and its ‘ supporters. There was thus every in- dication that the people were fairly alive to the importance of the duty of preserving the beauty of the natu- ral scenery about the Falls. This 'was the object of the whole movement. All that was beautiful about the Falls was gradually being destroyed by the artificial means adopted for money-making pur- poses. The tirst step taken by the Ontario Government was to endeavor to induce the Dominion Government to undertake the work, and with that view the Legislature. passed an Act to give. the Dominion (Bov- ernment all the necessary pom-r. Need tiations took place to induce them to un- dcrtake the work, and ultimately to induce them to undertake a portion of it. These negotiations were unsuccessful. Although he could not speak with authority he believed that the Ontario members of the Dominion Government ,favored the pro- ject. but the other Ministers did not see the matter in the same light. Thcreupou the Ontario Legislature passed an Act with a view to having the matter dealt with within its own jurisdiction. In the preliminary proceedings they had the. valu. able assistance 'of three commissioners. The Act provided that the commissioners should have a survey of the property made in order to determine exactly what land it was necessary to include in the Park, and to ascertain by 1‘19““. of a conditional The, House divided on Mr. Carson’s amendment in favor of the six months‘ hoist, which was ('arriedâ€"-chs. M; hays, 34. . Mr. Balfour, replying to the objections raised against the Bill, said that the law of last session had been seen red mainly through the influence of members of the gun clubs. who were a special class and could afford to spend money to send delegates to represent their interest, which the people could not ‘ do. He was surprised to see the member for Lincoln (Mr. Garson) championing the views of the special class as against the rights of the people. In view of the feeling manifested against the spear-hip, clause, he would drop it, though he could give reason . for having it passed. In Essex the musk. ‘ rats were very numerous and did great damage to ditches and in other ways. But that was a local question, perhaps, and he would not urge the change. But he saw no reason why the other clauses should not pass, and he hoped that the members who represented the people and not gun clubs would do all they could to have this change in the law made. (Cries of “ Order, oriler‘W. M}. Gibson (Hamilton) said he was strongly opposed to opening up the game laws, which were now considered to be the begg the Province ever had. Mr. Spmgue said he was glad to‘ hear that the member for South Essex was will.- ing to have the Bill a. plied only to the southwestern part of ntario. He would be opposed to general spring shouting.

Mr. Bulfour moved the second reading of a Bill to amend the game laws by allowing spring shooting 01 all ducks except the mal- ‘ lard, bat and wood duck. He said that in the county of Essex. while the Canadians were deburred from spring shooting. the Americans came in boats, shot all the game they wanted and went back, defying the Canadian othi-ors. He read a. letter giving it vivid description of the American pirates and robbers who came over in armed cruisers and insulted and threatened any one who tried to interfere with them. He was willing that the permission to shoot ducks in the' spring be confined to the section of the Province where this grievance existed. Mr. Gibson (Homilton) moved tlio second radius oi the Bill respecting exemptions (tom seizure under execution. He ssid thst there wss nothing very rsdicsl in the extension of exemptions which he proposed. the object being to adopt the old system to the necessities of modern life.
