THE FINAL SESSION.i The session hegun at Ottawa yesterday is the fifth, and, undoubtedly, will be the last of the present Parliament.In the Speech from the Throne with which it was opened the principal iterm war the reference to the partici- Africa.There can be no doubt that the Government, was perfectly justitied in equipping and sending the contingents that have gone to the front.\u2018he announcement that Parliament will be asked to provide for the payment of our men should meet with no objection if it is intended to give them Canadian pav as well as the shilling a day they will receive from the Imperial Government.We believe that both parties should unite to sssist Canada to discharge its duty to the l\u2019mpite fully and effectually.On other lines à hot fight will be put up against the Government, which is now setting its house in order for ihe next campaign.That it is preparing for the fray is evident from the inncoent announcement: made in the speech that legislation for the better arrangement of the electoral districts will be submitted.This foreshadows a redistribution Bill that is the infallible precursor of a dissolution.It will therefore, be à fighting session, in which the issues for the coming campaign will be developed, and, nn doubt.fully debated.THE DOUBLE GAME.According to the Liberal press, and specially the organ in this city, Mr.Greenway is being wickedly maligned by the Conservatives who ate charging him with duplicity jn the matter of bis railway policy.But when a Liberai member resigns his seat, as Mr.C.A.Young, who was elccted in Deloraine, has done, because he was deliberateiv deceived by this leader, the public has the best reason to conclude that Mr.Greenway ic not s0 much of a saint as the subsidized admirers believe him to be.Says Mr.Young in a letter tv his constituents commenting uppn recent disclosures : \u2018\u2019I fee] that I have secured my election under false pretences and, notwithstanding that I have done so innocently, I feel it my duly to tender my resignation.\u201d And Mr R.L.Richardson, a Liberal member of Parliament, says in his paper.the Winnipeg Tribune : \"Mr.Greenway has been [alse not only to the electors, but in particular to the Liberal party in this province.\u201d These declarations from Liberal sources should put un end to the absurd pretence that ul.Greenway is & much misrepresented man.He has played the double gadie in Manitoba, and, a8 he has failed, he is now repudiated hy his friends.It ) {is a hopeful sign to see that duplirity is not always successful.The Libersi party in Manitoba might well exclaim in the words of Macbeth of its politi ca) deccivers : \u2018And bo thesc juggling fiends Ro mor: believed, That pater with us in a double sense.That keep the word of promise in our | And § brcalk it to our hope!\" \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 THE FIGHT IX KENTUOKY, Kentucky has for several months been the theatre of the political struggle | which culminated in the shooting, 5 day of two ago, of Senator Goetelthe Democratic claimant of tbe State Governorship.In the State elections the Democrats were divided into two factions, the Goebelites and the anti- Gocbelites.Consequently the Republican candidate, Mr.W- S- Taylor, is said to have secured a majority of the votes cast.Taylor was duly inaugurated, but as the election was disputed it, came before a tribunal, constituted under an election law framed by Goebel to give him control of the political machinery.This board has de clared that Goebel was elected Gover: nor.But before the decision wes made known, when, however, there was he doubt as to the way it would Roan unknown foe put a bullet into Goe bel's body.While thus wounded, and his recovery still uncertain, Goebel was sworn in Governor of the State.The rest of the machinery of Government has been thrown out of gear by the action of Taylor in adjourning the Legislature from the State capital to o violent Republican stronghold, where |viz., For authority to issue prior lien « A »atzpniged by y \\he Leading Ot | bonds, taking precedence of the bonds | Will be in danger.Common señse sens où Quebec.sendy issued; to issue income bonds | will in the end assert itself, but in the \\ uates tram $2.50 pou day Ep HENRY HOGAN, ~ - Prooriets 7 rousehol Yonge.46 cent t Uluver, ind 8 whe.of.; > for {he purpose of redeeming in whole or in part the outasnding bonds of the Company; to issue preference stock and for other purposes.JARON, PENTLAND & STUART.Solicitors for Applicants.10th Jan, 1900.\\ meantigee lives may be lost, and many things will be done of which both parties will, after the heat of passion is gone, be heartily ashamed.Great dargains to be had at Glover, Fry & Co's.sale.\u2014 t!

rial councils.and I believe that 1 will | not die before I see the Prime Minis ter of this colony sitting at the Imporial council board, with the Prime Minister of England.\" The Minister of Public Works is on the right track, though he has had to switch round | some rather sharp curves to get there.Iu the distance he can discover a new | development of our national life, and, | although he may mot outline it accurately, ber has grasped its significance, namely, the strengthening of the Empire.A proportionate influence in the : Imperial councils would not mean , much if it did sot ensure greater cooperation in the matter of defence and of trade.The time for a British pre ference on British goods is rapidly | ripening, and if Mr.Tarte and colleagues have & mind to do so they | a great work for Canada and the Em- | pire in that connectian.pe ES The Duke of Manchester, who created a society sensation lately by joining the stafl of the New York Journal, is now representing that paper at the Imperial Parliament.His grace is giving some solid chunks of truth to his American readers.Speaking of the opening proceedings he said: \u201cThe one thing that, to me, stood out in both houses was {he absolute unanimity of both parties on one point, criticise other points as (hey might, every speaker was emphatio in this, that the war should be prosecuted to its end with a determination and completeness that would Jeave no room for the possibility of its recurrence in South Africa.If the Boers had counted on the support of even a minority in England, let them wrench this false hope frony their hearts and cast it from, them.Great Britain has risen froma sense of her responsibilities, and is ab- | solutely united in her determination to! settle this question vatisfactorily once : for all.\u201d This às a good antidote for many of the other despatches now ap; pearing in the American yellow journals.\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF.Once on a time a nation Was Leaten in every fray, And the people in consternation, ere tried with a sore dismay.For the bravest and best of their armies | Turned from the flight to flee | From the | front of old Stonewall Jacksoi And the face cf Robert E, Lee!
