From the days when the Intercoloniai was first projected there has been a battle of routes going on in regard to railway lines between the Maritime Province and the west. St. John city and the seven or eight counties Inter-seated by the St. John river wanted the line laid through the _valley of the St. John. Sova Scotia and the seven north-eastern counties of New Brunswick wanted the line laid through northern New Bruns- wick. The influence of Quebec was thrown into the scale. in favor of the North Shore route. partly because of the large French speaking population there, and it was adopted.
Now that the Grand Trunk Pacific is to be built the battle is renewed. not as be- fore between North Shore and St. John River routes. but between the latter in part and a new route through the central And again Brunswick. and
part of New Brunswick. Nova Scotia and New particularly St. John and Halifax are pulling opposite directions. New Brunswich is divided between the two routes. and Nova Scotia pretty well united in favor of the central line. Moncton Halifax and Nova Scotis against St. John in this matter.
For the central route it is contended that it is the shortest route between the objective points, Quebec and Moncton.

also between Quebec and Halifax: that it will open up a large section of country lumber, fish and game. much of it desirable for settlement. Against it objection is made that the land is poor, will never be settled. that the'road can have no local traffic. and that the grades will be so steep In cases as to require a second engine he- hind the train to act as a pusher in order to carry the average train loud over the summit, and that the extra cost» of oper. ating from thiscause would more than offset the greater mileage by the valley route.
For the route following the St. John or its valley from the head waters to Ohiprnan. it is contended that it. would run through a fertile country, it. now well settled; that. it; would have eauy grades and that it. would be the shortest route to tidewater at St. John, where the freight ought to gt. But the objectors urge that there would be much expensive bridging required to cross the tributaries of the St. John. which would be avoided by the central route; that. the St. John valley now has the C. P. R. running through its entire length and does not. need another railway; that. the river route if adopted for the Grand Trunk Pacific would open little or no new country for settlement. and would leave the central portion of the Province for all time became, and without a railway to develop its The central route seems in any case most likely to be chosen.

The Ontario Legislature has now before it a bill to regulate the running of automobiles. which if it passes in its present form will greatly restrict the pleasures of operating these machines. It forbids the use of Search lights; it. compels motor cars to carry a number conspicu- ously displayed before and behind for purpose of identification: it directs that these numbers must be kept. illuminated at night; it orders the motor driven to return to the scene of any accident and give his name and address; it regulates the speed ton moderate pace. and it

Russian PARLIAMENT onus.
An event of hiach importance took place on Thursday in ShPaier-aburg which will, make the 10th of May. I“ forever memorable in Russia. It was the opening of the first. Russian Parliament. composed of the Council of the Empircaa its Upper House. and the National Assembly. or popqu Chamber. This latter body has vary limited legislative powers as yet. and has practime no control of the taxation or public expenditure. but these will come._
The National Assembly will have the right of full and free discussion of public questions. and it will thuaba a medium through which a greatly misgoverned and oppressed people will make their protests heard and their wants known. A free press must follow. and the right of public assembly and free discussion therear. will each give an impetus to the movement toward the fullerliberty such as is enjoy- all in allEngiish—speakinglands. There- fore we look upon the assembling of the first Parliament as an event big with hope for Russia.
The Czar opened the Parliament in person, we are told. and in a conciliatory It. is well for him to be concil- iatory; any other course might be dangerous. It may be well also that the rights offrec citizenship and full civil liberty shill be gradually conceded. for itmny be doubted whether the masses of the Russian people are yet fitted for the task of self-government. We may expect in the decades next to come, many a
