exploration com men ting on the discovery of clay belt which was well adapted tor cultivation Another result was the discovery of enormous quantities timber The Government had always contended that there was plenty pine timber left on the Provincial domain and this verification of that position effectually disposed of Conservative contention of each timber sale that tho last in the Province had been dis posed Hi John Behind Times- One body of virgin in agnmi district consisting of three million feet board measurement had been set as a forest reserve of this exploration IhW Mr Davis showed of the measures advocated by to matter which I Mr St John in his speech had been St of in operation for several years and the Mr St John had an en tirely new policy Ministerial ap plause Many suggestions made by gentleman had already been proposed from the Government side of the House placed upon the Statute and were now in op eration as he would show later on It was not only a new policy coming of- the House but vas new for to have a policy coming from that hide at all Ministerial Applause lie was glad that a better day was dawn- and they would probably during the remainder the at least have public discussed some a policy from his friends opposite The miction in conhection policy is the leader on the other fi might have a leader now looming up in the person of the lion member to West and laughter Ready and Waiting olng dnwiUi his Mr Jib on the paper A position of thin reserve timber would also he different to that followed where the laud was adapted to agri culture Only such trees as might he selected by a competent forester be disposed of and it was possible when the for the reserve were completed that class of timber might be of by competition at so much per thousand feet on stump Another Fallacy Exploded Mr Davis next dealt with Mr St Johns animadversions upon set tlement of and Parry Sound districts and which had earlier Mr to his fcot The member for West York seemed to infer that as many settlors tramped out of those new districts as tramped in in which opposition case the population of that district would be stationary If Mr St John had examined matters carefully he might have found that the cancel lation of a location did not necessar ily indicate that a settler had come out of the country at all It was much more apt to indicate that he had secured what he thought to be a better location at some other point The Commissioner quoted from the re ports of the department to show a steady influx of settlers into the districts under discussion and it was significant that where there were people in there were al most in according to tbe Dominion census And he was in a position to say that the settlement Now Ontario during last year was more satisfactory than in any two of the previous thirty years Approval from Opposition Mr St John had quoted from the report Mr director Colonization and Forestry and had approved of that officials work and Mr Davis quoted from Journals the House to show that had Mr St John and his friends had their way Mr would never have been appointed nor office cre ated as the Opposition had repeated ly moved to strike the salary and expenses connected with that depart ment from the estimates Now that tho result had justified wisdom of the Governments course they were wflUng to accord a tardy approval Ministerial applause Hon gentle- i a rids already a part the settled policy of that department Ministerial applause Some Advice for the Hon Cent He was glad also Mr St John had seen fit to advocate the manufacture uHtioi into paper in our own country The Government been trying to accomplish that jfor some years and several years ago they had prohibited exportation of from the country in an unmanufactured condition to the de cided benefit Ontario workmen and Ontario commerce was away behind the times again Mr Davis entered a spirit of defence the pulpwood policy of the Gov ernment and the attitude of the ad ministration upon The had shouted for a long time that the granting of concessions was unfair to settlers and would retard development and now they had the River Pulp Company throwing up their contract because settlement had gone into the limits of their concession so rapidly that could not proceed and be- sure of sufficient to guar antee tho success ofthe undertaking Ho advised Mr St John incidental ly to read tho waterpower regula tions department- they would be a revelation to him and he woutd see that the Government did not dis pose of these valuablo franchises In fee simple but merely leased them for a term of years In conclusion Mr Davis intimated that he had merely attempted to deal with the salient points which had arisen in connection speech of the gentleman opposite and that perhaps later on he would have an opportunity to address House at length upon tho policy and management of his department- In conclusion he was heartily cheered and it was felt that reply to Mr John was one of the most effective that has bee heard in the House in recent years I dress and fairly and Mr Whitney had scientific iorctry the I work was being extended as rapidly is circumstances would permit lIJ had instanced the methods adopted by the German people men opposite had not been very far- sighted with regard to this imports ant question r Mr St John also laid a great deal of stress upon the loss timber by ftte and criticized Government fire ranging system Mr Davis pointed out that it was the concensus of opinion among the lumbermen and for estry experts that the ranging system of Ontario was superior to that any other Province in the DomWon Ministerial applause And Fawn chore Attractive prediction is made that in ten years there will be a
