Where the largest assembly is expect.ied.How many names will appear on this wnique declaration of independence is a subject of newspaper contention.Predictions of Ulster enthusiastic range from half a million to a million, but less spacious minds point out that the number of non- Catholic males in all Ulster is only 430,000.To Make It a Holiday.The Belfast Corporation has recommended all employers to give Saturday to their men as a \"day of rest.\u201d The governing body of the Presbyterian Charch has issued a manifecto declaring that the Home Rule bill threatens religious freedom, and setting apart the day as one for worship and prayer.The \u201ccovenant\u201d isto be signed on the steps of the Belfast Cathedral and religious services will be held there as well as in many Presbyterian, Methodist and Church of Ireland places of worship in Ulster cities and towns, Unionist women have formulated a draft of declaration for members of their sex to sign, and are preparing a demonstration to take place with those by the men.In some small cities, notably Londonderry and Drogheda, the men will assemble in the market place and women in tents.As a curtain raiser for the Belfast day there will be a great rafly on Friday night, when Sir Edward Carson, Lord ;

prejudice for their own ends; George Drummond, who urged that Canadian manufacturers establish themselves in the western provinces so that the needs and views of east and west might become more similar: Hon.Mr.Monk, whose address was an optimistic one, dealing with the prosperity of the country and prophesying 8 triumphant and speedy settlement of the questions which his party has to handle ; and Hon.William White, who dealt concisely with the commercial and financial issues of the day.Telegrams expressing regret at inability to be present were read from F.W.G.Haultain, J.A.Matheson, Sir Richard McBride and Sir R, P, Roblin, Hearty Greeting to Premier, When Mr.Borden rose to speak he was greeted with desfening applause which competed him to remain bowing for upwards of ten minutes before he even attempted to speak.After thanki:g those present for the reception tendered him he said : \u201cWhen we came to power the friends of the Lideral party made the prophecy tha!

but it is na - laughing matter with him to think of the price of his labor on the farm being lowered over one-half, merely to place Sir Wilfrid in power again and place him (the farmer) in the clutches of the middlemen or some other vulture of a Food Trust.He is willing enough to shout \"Hurrah for Laurier® when the \u201cgrey locks\u201d flit past him in a gaily caparisoned chariot co St.Joseph street to some proud pu- litical festival, but be is not going to vote, all.the same, for reciprocity, in order that it may provide for him an impoverishing market, and thus increase the mortgages on his farm.But what of the ladies whose purse is suffering from the high prices in the Montcalm and Champlain Markets?\u201cWill reciprocity lower the prices for us?they are inclined to ask.Not one penny-piece.It will rather tend to raise the prices, since the middlemen of the United States will see that the supply of market- truck in Canada is made much less than the demand.Increase the demand, ladies, to being more than the supply, and prices are sure to go up; and reciprocity is going to raise, as | sure as law is law, the prices of every article of food, either in the raw state :| or when prepared for use! If that \u201cdear old man\u201d Sir Wilfrid Laurier could have had his way last year in the matter of reciprocity your purse would have had to suffer more than it has from the high market prices.And all this is incontrovertible economic truth.THE GERMAN IMMIGRANT.Tt is estimated that there are over four hundred thousand Germans settled in .Canada, having a residual knowledge of the language of

themselves.There is no \u201cwar menace\u201d ever in their eye, and they are beginning to be inclined to smile at Kaiser Wilhelm's exploit, and glad to escape the heavy taxation which his ship-building ambitions involve.\u201cI vos von German,\u201d is the favorite expression of the oider of these German settlers, which may be turned into meaning \u201cbut now I am a Canadian.\u201d

\u201cforeigner\u201d from Britain in the eyes of the then premier; though for that matter he was no more of a for- cigner than Sir Wilfrid himself is.One inference thst the Ottawa citizen draws from

AMERICAN PRESS AND ROOSEVELT.Canadians know almost as much about Colonel Roagsevelt as they dé about Sir Wilfrid\" Laurier.They ars both men of ovetweening ambition.and men who ave tasted the sweets Sf à realized ambition.But both of them would have more of the authority that is supreme in the State.They would have more than their share of high office, and are making themselves believe that if they happen to be defeated again and again, the country of their nativity is always to be as unfortunate and inconsolable at a last counting of the ballots against them.When spoken of in the same breath they are not 3 badly paired company of two.But let a cer- rain William H.Taft be brought up in their company, and what a change there comes over the features of their complacency! \u201cThat man!\u201d shout both of them in concert.+ \u201cWhy, how he led me astray,\u201d eries Theodore R., \u201cin our relationship about the presidency.\u201cAnd how he deceived me in the matter of

statesmen, who have never known, of their own consciousness, what it is to be elected too often, in order to read what a highly respectable week- ty journal of the United States allows one of its correspondents to say about Cotonel Theodore Roosevelt, formerly President of the United States, in contradistinction to Sir Wilfrid Lau: vier, erstwhile Premier of Canada We intend to allow the latter to be judged from his own hustings words about himself, as he perseveres in his peregrinations among the parishes of his native province.We intend to tet others tell of what is to be thought about the former, much of which had better not have been uttered about any public man.This is A.Maurice Low in Harper's Weekly: .\u201cHe proved his dishonesty in a hundred différent ways, from denying the acceptance of campaign contrjbu- tions to denying instructions given to one of his dors.He proved that he fiad noidapucity for leadership by coming into office with a powerful, militant and cohesive party behind him, going out of office with his party in the minority, shattered into factions, fighting pitifully on the defensive when not engaged in fighting among themselves.He proved his weskness as a statesman by originating no constructive legislation and leaving no perdurable mark on the statute-books.He showed himself to be unstable, unbalanced, vain, contemptuous of law, unmindful of obligations, strong only when his passions were allowed full scope.\u201d The Chronicle, as our readers can see for themselves, would give a plain and truthful account of all that Sir Wilfrid Laurier says at the meetings he is holding at various centres of population, in order that he and his policy may be judged by what he himself says.In his latest speech at Cochrane his old man's plea is changed into \u201cI am neither dead nor buried,\u201d though no one has ever ventured to wish the dear old ex-pre-.mier to be dead.There is one thing sure that he is preparing to dig deeper his own grave, if all that is reported of his speeches be true.His whole plea to be returned to power as soon as possible is pitiable.It simply amounts to this: \u201cI am advancing in years.1 am a French- Canadian, as many of my audience are.1 was driven from power he- cause the people of my native province were deceived by somebody or other.| want to return to power.Now what are you\u2014whether your provincial origin be the same as mine or not\u2014what are you going to do to help an old man, trying to renew his youth for your sake\u2014what are you going to do to get me back into power again.\u201d 1f this is the kind of statesmanship our all-Canadian men and women woud like to have enter upon the consideration of an ail- British naval policy, such statesmanship had better be relegated at once to the sslf-pleading of the Liberal underworld, where there is 8 famine of \u201cloaves and fishes\u201d on at present.There is no way of checking it, save by « growth in the intelligence of the constituencies so that it may see through the cajolery of a man who says he is a Canadian of the Canadians one minute, and the next minute gets off a racial ples like this when he.happens to-sddress the people of a Freneh-Canadian parish: \u201cIf, England som ka in Jonas GE even + on trial, 1, a Canadian of French origin, will be the first to go to My people and call upon

all, for the sake of -appearunces in Empire circles.And all this on the part of one who has the heart to betray his constituency and the city that kisses his hands every tme he comes within its hospitable walls! rere The Battletields Commissioners are to be commended after all the delays the Chronicle was once called to animadvert upon, owing to the supercil- lousness the publis were being treated to.The plans of the Commis¥on- ers cannot, however, be completed without a further grant from the Federal government; and then we are sure to know all about the responsibilities of the Cummission as a public body.subject to the oversight of parliament.Mrs.Mary Leigh has not been allowed to make a martyr of herself to the point of death by being fed with a tube; and neither aave any of our chicken-raisers adopted the Hon.Sydney Fisher's suggestion that they should fatten their fowls for the market by feeding them with a squirt.Chickens are selling, as has been said this morning elsewhere, at the high figure of a dollar a pair, and probably chickens fed under Mr.Fisher's advice might have been sold for a dollar and a half a pair.Be this as it may, Mary Leigh's stock has gone up, if we are to believe Mrs.Pankhurst.who claims that Mary's dismissal {rom prison on license is a defeat for the Asquith-Churchill-Lloyd George government, that may end in a general election being ordered by the King.The alfalfa reclamations across the deserts east and west of Albuquerque form a sight to remember.The alfalfa is as nutritious as clover, and where the climate permits will give the farmer two or three crops, for cattle-fceding purpeses, in a year.The farmers of Prince Edward Island have been experimenting with it, and possibly in time the Quebec farmer may find its cultivation profitable.\"11, says one of the Island papers, \u201cwe can, by improved cultivation.better fertilization and the growth of alfalfa, produce three or four times more fodder, it follows that we can produce three or cattle to the great benefit of our furm- ers and the province at large.\u201d There are still some people in Quebec who cannot get over the idea that Sir Wilfrid Laurier is \u201ca dear old man\u201d and should not be coerced into joining with Mr.Borden in upholding a wider naval policy than his own.We have not heard of any one trying to coerce Sir Wilfrid into doing away with his.own naval policy.There has been no attempt on the part of the Conservative party to coerce the ex-premier ir this or any other way.In its generosity, the Conservatives of the country would only prepare the way for giving him a chance to prove to himself his own British statesmanship.We agree with all and sundry that Miss Barbara Wylie, the militant London suffragette, should not be allowed to land at Quebec, when the Empress of Ireland arrives.Canada on the whole is not oppused to giving a vote to the \u201cCanadiennes\u201d who want a vote; but it wou'd like \u2018o take its own time to consider tH): matter without being forced to action by hatchet, hat-pin or saucy tongue, The immigration authorities down at the Immigration Shed should not allow Miss Wylie to pass as an unobjectionable, non-deportable immigrant.That is all there is about it.The Asquith-Churchill Ministry, it is said, have it in mind to try that most contemptible of all the tricks of caucus rule, in political and religious circles, namely, to have Sir Edward Carson dismissed from the Privy Council, because he has the courage of his own convictions in saying that the Ulster minority should protect themselves at the initiation of an evolution that is sure to infringe upon their rights of citizenship in the long run.Is this what we lave been proud of calling British fair play?\"If you cannot meet

With grassy slopes surrounding where the feet that daily prod The streets of tcil and traffic may go out and walk with God.Long vistas down the hollows of cool woods and r.oble trees, A breath of balm of Gilead in the toxin of the breeze; lips of little children ringing sweet with childhood chaff, A hymn beside some doorway or a silver-sounding laugh; A sane and wholesome living, with the presence

shine: The morning bringing balsam and the sparkle of the dew, A whirr of bird maurauders, and a day so pure and rew From sleep so calm and restful, as if by each folded tent An angel of the slurher of God's trusting children went.An engine in the valley tooting on its way to town, The blue sky o'er the branches of the great oaks stooping down; The grandeur of a focest, with the beauty of an

championship,of the Amateur Athletic Union of the United States here yesterday, won the event easily in 25.43 2-5.His nearest competitor was Harry J.Smith, the Metropolitan champion, who finished several yards behind in an exhausted condition.Kolehmainen, however, seemed fresh at the finish.During the entire race he held a steady gait, running easily and copstantly waved and grinn- od to the thousands of spectators who applauded him.As he crossed the une a vietor he was given 8 remarkable ovation.While the foreign Olympic hero and the five mile race were the features of the sfternoon, there was an exception ally good programme of track and field events.Abel Kiviat, Irish-Amer- ican AC., won the one mile race in 4.18 3-5, breaking the A.A.U.record, and, according to officials could have hung up a new world\u2019s mark with a litle more effort.Kiviat ran easily and seemed to slow up on the back stretch of the last lap.In the running high jump J.O.Johnstone, Boston A.A, and H.I.Grumpelt, N.Y.AC., both Olympic participants, tied for first place with 6 feet, 3 inches, equalling the A.A.U.record.In the jump off Grumpelt was unable to maintain that mark and dropped to second place.In the pole vault H.S.Babcock, N.Y.AXC.,, Olympic winner and world's champion, was the center of interest.Babcock won the event easily with 12 feet, much below even the AAU.mork.H.P.Drew, of the Springfield, Mass, High School, won the 100-yard dash in 10 seconds flat.For the fifth time J.J.Eller, Irish- American A.C., won the senior championship in the 220-yard high hurdles with a mark of 25

but they would sign the covenant, and not caring tuppence whether it was treason or not.they would keep it, and he was sure Ulster would win the fight against Home Rule.KOLEHMAINEN WINS A RACE AT NEW

is possible at such » gathering as this.But having to take these matters up, we dealt with them as seemed right according to our consciences and according to the constitution of the country.\u201cAnd further I do not believe any government in Canada st its first session ever put forward so much practicable and reasonable legislation for the public welfare of Canada as those measures we proposed

visit to England and declared : .\u201cI told the people of Great Britain that we in Canada had sharply distinguished Hetween two quastions\u2014 first, that of grave conditions con fronting the Empire which might demand certain consideration and certain action ut our hands, while the other was the more complex and difficult, the question of permanent cooperation in the defence of the Empire which would be brought about in that ro \u201cAnd I ventured to tell the people of the Mother Country that, if I understood the spirit of the Canadian people aright, Canada did not propose to be an adjunct even of the British Empire.\u201cAnd speaking at a great many places, before parliamcntarians, before tLe Royal Colonial Institute, before the London Chamber of Commerce, and before an audience of 5,000 people at Glasgow, no statement that I made was more warmly received or more enthusiastically applauded than the statement that with co-operation in Imperial defence must also come a certain voice with Canada in settling the issues of peace and war.\u201d Expect Announcement Next Week.Mr.Borden then made the announcement that Parliament would open in November and that by that time, following the receipt next week of detailed information regarding the naval situation from the Imperial authorities the Cabinet would be in a position to present their naval policy.Hon.Robert Rogers, Minister of the Interior, was given a grest ovation in which the words \u201cBob\u201d and \u201cRogers\u201d were most heard.After referring to Sépt.Zist last, he said that recent evénts had

Sentiment.\u201cLet me tell you,\u201d ssid Hon.Mr.Rogers forcibly, \u201cas a Western man, acquainted with Western conditions and responsible to the Western people, that T deny the existence of any such sentiment that is either real or honest.\u201d The honorable minister went on to say that the efforts of the Liberal press were now directed towards exciting race, religious, class and language contentions and prejudices, and contrasted that with \u201cthe traditional policy of the Conservative party so: well carried on by the present Premier to place at all times and under all circumstances the Lest interests of the country before those of party.\u201d \u201cSentiment in the Province of Saskatchewan in favor of reciprocity?\u201d he said.\u201cNo, no.In that province we have a very large foreign population, and I want to say here that a great many of these foreigners have taken on the responsibilities of our Canadian citizenship.I want to say further that such as have are numbered among our best citizens and our most loyal British subjects.Juggle Nationality Oath.\u201cUnfortunately, we have snother class who have not taken on these responsibilities, and it was to that class that the Liberal party and the Liberal press of that province made their appeal in the recent contest.You naturally ask me what purpose they could have to serve in appealing to a class of men who were neither British subjects by birth or natursl- ization, and who could not for that reason exercise their franchise, My answer is thet if these men lived in any other province of Canada than in Saskatchewan they could not exercise their franchise.\u201cBut, sirs, you all know that we have a Dominion naturalization law in Canada, That law is supported, maintained and upheld in every province of the Dominion to that extent that every province in the Dominion places upon its statute book an oath which every elector who asks for a ballot te obliged to take before vot- Ing, to the effect that he is either à British subject by birth or natural {zation \u201cIt existed upon the statute bookd of Saskatchewan until a few days revious to going to the country.hen the Premier of that province introduced an act by which they wiped out that part of the oath where 8 man was obliged to swear that he was à British rabject{ That was to enable them to poll the vote in favor of and in sympathy with them in that contest.It was the result of that vote that elected and returned that government.That is what the Liberal press calls sentiment in favor of reciprocity.Says Reciprocity

to the Borden banquet in Montreal on Saturday night were ycsteréay treated to a trip around the harbor of the metropolis, during which they were enabled to witness the remarkable improvements being made there.Amang those on the trip were: Albert Seviny, M.P.: D.O.L'Esperence, M.P.; Aldermen Dussault, C.J.Lockwell, V.Martin, M.D.; F.O.Drouin, P.C.Cote, À.J.Messervey, Romeo Langlais,

T.J.Lavallee, Joseph Vermette, J.A.Larue, Jules Hones and Ernest Caron, who were accorded special attention.Hon, 1.P.Pelletier paid particular attention to the Quebec deputation and entertained them at breakfast at the Windsor Hotel yesterday morning.He also extended an invitation to the Quebecers present to make a tour of the harbor, and inspect the im- proveménts, and automobiles and carriages were placed at the disposal of those invited.The Hon.Mr.Whyte, Finance Minister; Hon, Mr.Crothers, Minister of Labor; Mr, Geo.Bradbury, M.P.for Selkirk, were of the party.Mr.C.C.Ballantyne, one of the Harbor Commissioners, acted as escort, and placed the new tug Sir Hugh Allan at the disposal of the Quebec deputation and provided lunch for his guests on board the tug at noon, during which Hon.Mr.Whyte declared that he was anxious to visit the harbor of Quebec, To Visit Quebec Harbor.Hon.Mr.Pelletier extended a cordial invitation to the Finance Minister to visit Quebec, which was accepted, and arrangements will be made at this city to receive him towards the end of the month.Very few Quebecers have the least idea of the vastness of the harbor improvements in progres: at

Elevator.The site where the new floating dock will be located is now practically ready to receive it when it arrives.This new flogiing dock will have a lifting capacity of 27,500 tons, and on the occasion of its inauguration a large vessel will be used to demon- starte how the dock will work.Montreal citizens look upon this dock as a national plant.Thirty acres surrounding this dock have been secured by the Harbor Commission, whereon a large ship repairing and ship building plant will be erected and employment given to 2000 men.with the reciprocity matter at some length, declaring that it had been rejected not as a party issue, but on national economic grounds, as it should have been.He further expressed the conviction that neither in the East or the West was there any general feeling in favor of reciprocity, and that if another election should come with this as the issue, now that the passions which had been aroused during the last campaign had died out, that thing would be defeated much more emphatically than last September.In fact, he put it that reciprocity was dead in both East and West.And as a new member of the cabinet, Hon.Mr.White declared that he could not imagine a more happy family than that of the Borden government, laughing at the efforts |} of Liberal writers and speakers to convey the idea that there were any government dissensions.\u201d DURE AND DUCHESS ON WAY TO PRINCE RUPERT Vancouver, Sept.22, \u2014 The Duke and Duchess of Connaught and Princess Patricia embarked for Prince Rupert on the Canadian Pacific steamer Princess Alice at 10.30 Saturday night.The royal party was escorted to the dock from the Hotel Vancouver by an escort of city mounted police under Chief Chamberlin and Deputy Chief Mulhern.The drive from the railway station entrance to the doc} occupied by the steamer was outlined in electric tights in the national colors, red, white.and blue.Carpets of red were laid from the point where the royal party alighted from their automobile to the beat.As the steamer left its moorings the mayor called for three cheers for His Royal Highness the Duke of Connaught and thereafter another three cheers for His Majesty King George.The mayor then called for three cheers each for Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess and Princess Patricia.As the vessel moved into the stream the crowd standing on the dock led by His Worship

Mail has hired an \u201cAmerican expert\u201d (Mr.Dubilier) to investigate the dissatisfaction with the British telephone system.His verdict in a nutshell is that the system in infinitely worse than in the United States, worse than in Paris, worse in many respects even than in Russia\u201d Wrong numbers, false replies, cut-offs and exasperating delays, which make the telephone the despair of everyone who has to use it, have driven the expert to condemn the English service as worse than that of Russia, Mr.Dubilier finds that the average time required to secure a number is one minute fifteen seconds, wheres in Russia the average is one minute and in New York only fifteen seconds.For trunk calls the difference is almost incredible.Thirty-five minutes are necded to connect London with Southampton, a distance of 79 miles, while New York and Chicago, though separated by 1000 miles, are united in 25 minutes, and New York and Philadelphia, 100 miles apart, in 15 minutes.The unreliability of the service is not lers obvicas than its tardiness.Mr.Dubilier's experience of wrong aumbers, interrupted calls, and involuntary intrusions into the confidences of strangers talking over the telephone is the experience of most people every day, Bad organization, inkdequate and inefficient staff, and mechanical deficten- cies lie at the root of all this loss and irritation.The National Telephone Company, foreseeing the end of their contract, were naturally unwilling to nd money that could not be reclaimed.They limited development to the prospective requirements of their contract.and the government took no steps to provide In antictpa- tion for normal expansion.And another factor has intervened as à consequence nf the transfer of the telephones.It seems to be indisputebte that personal efficiency diminishes under government control.Mr, Dubitier estimates this loss at from § te 25 per cent.which means a proportional increase of staff if the service is to be maintained at the same standard as it was under private control, One other defect hae followed upon the transfer\u2014the subjection of the engineers to the clerical department.The party was never

issue of the Chronicle the name of the Quebec Land Company, instead of the Moutcalm Land Company, was published at the foot of an advertisement of the latter company.Now everybody knows that Mr.J.A.Me- Gowan is the manager of the Quebec Land Company and Mr.P, N.Tessier is the manager of the Montcalm Land Company.The former have their office at 81 Bridge street and the latter at 328 St,

structural work of the Quebec Bridge at the Chaudiere, has now reached a depth of seventy feet under the river bed, and is yet to be sunk some fifteen feet before a solid foundation is reached.There are at present four hundred workmen of the class familiarly known 3s sand-hogs employed at the work of sinking the caisson, who are diyided into three shifts, and work at excavation underneath the caisson enclosure 11-2 hours at a time and when it again comes their turn put in another 1 1-2 hours, making three hours at the strenuous work in eack 24, They are unable, or not allowed to remain in the boitom of the caisson any longer, on account of the compressed air pressure, Before descending, as well as ascending to and from their work, they are very carefully examined by the

that case the caisson will continue its downward course until the friction will not permit it to go further, when it will become à perfect foundation without resting upon rock.The engiveers in charge of the work, however, expect to meet with a solid rock foundation before the depth of 85 feet is reached.It is an interesting sight to observe the sand hogs go down and come up from the work of excavation every 90 minutes.These workmen must not only have nerve to carry on the strenuous toil, but also must be perfectly perfect.They are earning double wages these days, nevertheless very few men would undertake the job.On Friday fast 25 sand hogs from England came to Quebec to engage at the work ENTERTAINMENT OF FRENCH VISITORS Officers and Crew of the Descartes Given a Warm Welcome in

encourage a flow of population toward the western province, Mr.De Celles sees a good chance in Quebec to interest young men, especially the sons of farmers who are unable to find settlement in this province under the crowded land conditions of the farming sections near the cities, to go to the western provinces.The government aid is very generous, giving 160 acres, a quarter section, to each settler or head of family.The Ottawa Valley Society is under a grant from the federal government to encourage emigration into Canada and to bring back to Canada as many ss possible of the Canadians who have gone to the States.Another work of the society is to encourage young farmers to move from the crowded farms of the eastern provinces to the ample room and fer- ages 7 5 | LATE STEAMSHIP ARRIVALS.0 Voor +, Hh DAY OF ATOHEMENT OBSERVED BY JEWS Quebec Hebrews, in Fasting and Prayer, Mark the Holy Days of Yom Kippur, eget The Hebrews of Quebec are cele: brating the most solemn days in their religion, and throughout tne world, Yom Kiprur was observed with the most sacred rites.At sundown on Friday the local Hebrews assembled in their synagogue to usher in the y of Atonement.The services continued from 6,30, the offical hour of sunset, to 9.30.At 830 o'clock in the morning the services were resumed and lasted until the close of Yom Kippur at 6.15 Saturday night, Greatest Day of Year.The Jewish Day of Atonement falls on the tenth day of the seventh month, Tishri, and is the culmination of the tend days of solemn meditation and reflection that began with the New Year.Ordained in Leviticus xvi, 29-34, as a \u201cSabbath of Solemn Rest,\u201d that is, of complete cessation from all ordinary avocations and occupations, Yom Kippur is not only the greatest day in the Jewish year, but, from the Hebrew viewpoint, one of the most impressive functions any religious system has developed.Abstention from food for 24 hours enables them to spend the entire day in the synagogue in prayerful devotion, This fast is the interpretation of the passage: \u201cYe shall afflict your souls on this day,\u201d and is consonant with the spirit of day, emphasizing, as it does, the subordination of the physical to the spiritual side of their nature.The entire Jewish people is engaged in the performance of its an- ecient liturgy.It is thus a sublime spectacle of communal solidarity which the Day of Atonement presents to the world's gaze.But fasting and worship are only the outward marks of devotion to a spiritual ideal.The ideal which has inspired this most wonderful of institutions is the desire of sinful man to be reconciled to his Father in Heaven and of the people to be at one with God.If sin or religious indifference has estranjed them by repentance and amendment they are this day restored once more to Divine favor.Nothing can weaken the hold of this day on the Jewish consciousness.Its appeal to the Jewish heart is perennial.It survives all changes of thought.It is acknowledged by all of Jewish to be the one day in the Jewish calendar which rallies every stray lamb in Israel's Aock, MIXED INDICTMENT IN THIS MAN'S SENTENCE.Galt, Ont,

Ireland, of the Church of England, who had designated Sunday and the week following, including \u201cUlster Day\u201d as \u201cdays for special intercession and prayer on behalf of our beloved native land,\u201d sermons were preached making particular reference to the solemn covenant.In many cases the national anthem was sung.Exceptionally large congregations attended the Protestant churches in Belfast and Londonderry.Great fervor was displayed and strong de- | nunciations of the government from the pulpit were heard, The Bishop of Derry, preaching in Derry Cathedral, exhorted his hearers not to submit tamely \u201cto be sold like brutes in the cattle market by men who received in return seventy venal and dishonest votes.\u201d TURKEY 18 ACCEPTING ADVICE OF THE NATIONS Constantinople, Sept.22.\u2014 Official papers, which have been issued enumerating recent concessions made to the Albanians and the extension of similar reforms to other provinces, make the unusual admission that these reforms are the result of advice tendered by the ambassadors here and of conversations between the Ottoman ambassadors abroad and the foreign ministers of the respective countries, notably Russia.Thi« display of deference towards the wishes of Europe is much commented upon in connection with the threatening situation in the Balkans, Peace negotistions are still the subject of discussion

public mind: Can Cuba survive the present state of her finances?Can she hold an honest and orderly election for the presidency with a loyal submission of the dcfeated party to the will of the majority?That the treasury is empty: that the last dollar of the $16,500,000 Speyer loan has been spent, while the work of sewering and paving Havana, which was the principal purpose for which the loan was authorized by the United States, is not only not half finished, but in danger of interruption if not of ahandonment; that the government is at its wits\u2019 | \u2018ends to find money to meet its vast | expenditures, while the receipts from the custom howse and the lottery have reached their lowest point\u2014all this is asserted by the enemies of the government and most of jt frankly admitted by all.BAR RELIGIOUS GARB AT U.8, INDIAN SCHOOLS'| Washington, : Sept.22.\u2014 Secretary Fishers action last January in revoking the order former Indian Commissioner Valentine.barring religious garb or insignia from Government Indian schools, was upheld by President Talt, in an order made public to-day.The decision of the President is that teachers now employed in Indian schools may continue to wear the garh of their religious orders, but the privilege is denied to any persons hereafter entering the service.This ruling will enable the Government to fulfill its obligations, the President says, to the teachers who were taken into the Government service when religious schools were taken over bodily as Government institutions.The President's ruling is the final step in a controversy that has engaged the Interior Department with religious bodies more than a year.Commissioner Valentine's order would have prohibited any teachers from wearing religious parb in the Indian schools after the last of the fast school year.SMALL FRUIT CULTURE.The failure of many who oecupy fand to grow an abundance of small fruits, at least for their own use, is due to a mistaken idea that it requires too much time to look after a garden.This is the view taken by Mr.W.T.Macoun, the Dominion Horticulturist, and expressed in a paper read by him last winter hefore the Senate Committee on Agriculture and Forestry.This paper, which constitutes a pam- phiet of 35 pages, is an exhaustive treatise, expressed in the nlainest terms, on the culture of small fruits.The fruits dealt with are the straw.herry, raspberry.blackberry, gooseberry and the several classes of currants.Besides giving full instructions for planting and cultivation, notes are given on the relative merits or varicties.Thi« namohlet contains an interesting table of the cost of growing and the returns {rom an scre of straw- herrles.At a selling value of § cents per hox, a net profit of $84 is shown.A section is devoted to the preparation and application of Insesticides and fungicides thet are useful in fruit growing.Having the information in this paper to guide him, there is no good reason why every farmer should not have a productive fruit garden.À large edition has been printed to he nent free to all who apply to the Publication Branch, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa.Caloëne,

business.\u201cMr.Laughlin is a native of Concord, N.H., and I am a native of: Montreal, and have a good ides how thef city has been boomed through the agency of real estate brokers.\u201cBut to my mind, Montreai is not in it with Quebec.The latter city is brimfull of natural resources, and the great public works in prospect will be founded on a natural instead of an artificial basis, There is nothing natural in Montreal, everything is band or machine mae.Look at its harbor, a dug-out in which shipping is never secure, and observe the channel leading io it from Quebec, alt made at the cost of millions of money and still never safe.\u201cThere is a continual cry against the high rate of marine insurance for ships trading in the St.Lawrence, but it is never explained that the cause of the high rates is the risk the ships undergo in passing Quebec to reach the harbor of Montreal.\u201d Mr.Laughlin said: \u201cWhen the dry dock is built and the port of Quebec properly equipped, there will be no longer an excuse for steamers to go to Montreal.Besides, the day is fast approaching when the ships will not be able to go to Montreal, except small vessels.All ships built in the future will be of large size than the present vessels, and even now, if there were sufficlent quay room at Quebec, quite 8 number o steamers that now climb up the channel at great risk would make this port their terminus.\u201cBut apart from the shipping business of the future, you have to consider the completion of the Transcontinental Railway to Quebec, the entrance of the Delaware & Hudson, the completion of the North Railroad from the land of che Nottaway River, great that will handle the gruin trade from the Province of Alberta via the Hudson Bay Railway, and the resources of the Hudson Bay, and other railroads that will come to Quebec and cause the building of many factories and other works of industry.Predicts 250,000 Population.\u201cIn my.opinion, the population of Quebec during the next five years will be augmented by more than 50,000 and ten years hence, after the completion of the bridge to connect the north with the south shore, from Cap Rouge to the Chacvdiere, the popula: tion of Quebec will be at least 250,- \u201cAdded to this, when the port of Quebec is equipped and recognized as the natural harbor of the St.Lawrence and the gateway of Canada, the | grain and other products of the West will pass through, \u201cYou have also to take into consideration the devolpment of the province's water powers, the development of the St.Charles River, upon the completion of which Beauport, Limoilou, St, Malo, St.Saveur, St.Roch's and along the Charlesbourg road will he congested suburbs of the city and bee hives of industry, and when the Province of Quebec will get its share of European immigration, \u201cThen again, you will have to consider the development of the harbor at Cap Rouge, by the Canadian Northern Railway, the building and operation of the Transcontinental Railway workshops at Cap Rouge, that will employ, it is said, 10,000 workmen, which means, including their families, 50.000 people.All these things have got to come, and if Quebec has been long in the background of Canada's progress she will soon forge shead to her natural position, as one of the leading cities of the Dominion, because the swelling of the tide of trade demands it and future generations will enjoy the fruits of prosperity.ST.CATHARINES ATHLETICS I Chronicle Guide u American Champion You need a THRESHING MACHINE?You want the most improved, strongest built,

up\u2014every- thing but the price of transportation.Inéreasing cost of living in the West is justly urged on behalf of repeated \u2018demands for better pay for labor.The applies to a railway.\u2019 \u201cThe railway\u2019 miist \u201clive;\u201d it rust even \u2018enjoy vom\u201d mésvure of prosperity in \u2018order to give its workmen a living \u2018wage.,\u2019As the trend of the times is \u2018toward bettét clbthes for the man and \u2018bis wife so\u2018it Is toward\u2019 better equip- mént for the railway, smarter carriages, electrie fans and faster trains.Can the public reasonably expect the benefit of th¥se hetterments for no additional cost?The first Pullman car, the \u201cPioneer,\u201d operated on the \u2018Chicago & Alton, cost $2,000, and \u2018took two dollars for a single sleep.The traveller'to-day sleeps in a car that may cost $20000 for the same \u2018price charged as the \u201cPioneer.\u201d He \u201ccan sleep in a first-class sleeper to- \u2018day of to-night \u2018for half the price charged in a first-class hotel.The Pullman Company is supposed to enjoy a monopoly in America.It \u2018s \u2018not so.For years the Wagner Com- \u2018pany was a competitor.Even before the merger of those companies many railways operated their own sleeping cars.The railways tried to improve on the Puliman.The Puliman Company took pointers and tried to improve on the improvements.So competition here, as in all branches of transportation, made for good service._ Competing Roads of Canada.Canada is fortunate in having three seperate, distinct and keenly competing railway systems.Competition between them will insure the best of service, not only in rates, but in facilities.Canada deserves such competition.The Dominion has been liberal in encouragement of the building of railways.Is Canada likely to be so unreasonable as to declare that, now that they are practically completed, they shall not be allowed to share in the general prosperity of the Canada which they have helped to make \u2018Should not railway rates rather ascend with wages and taxes than go down?It is a mistake to make 3 \u201choun\u2019 dawg\u201d of the railways.That's the way to damage theit service to the public\u2014and the best service is what Canada intended to obtain when encouraging railway-build- ing.Recently the Grand Trunk Pacific settled with section men at a minimum rate of two dollars a day.This will probably be the ruling rate in the Canadian West.A few years ago the daily toil of a track-man was only half that amount.Just as the price of this lahor has doubled, so the price of all things going into \u201cthe mill\u201d that produces transportation has advanced from thirty to fifty per cent, in the same time, Yet the price of this one product,

If we; _ considered the business of the railway \u201cwith the same measure of fairncss | employed when dealing with other in- ; dustries, we would agree that it is \u2018unfair tosask the railways.to do alt ; this extrs business at a loss.Obviously, it cost the railroad something 10 carry thirty-two and a quarter million dollars\u2019 worth of traffic.Yet i for each dollar of new business the railroads secured in the specified period they paid out $1.31, Experts estimate that eight billion dollars will be needed in the next five years to maintain railroad facilities in pace with the enormous increase of 1 \u2018traffic in the United States.In Canada, the situation is even worse, Wel are just in the midst of railway con-, struction.Vast areas in Canada, practically unsettled, but rapidly set- ! tling, must be supplied with transportation facilities.If you cripple the railways, reduce their revenue and destroy their borrowing power, who is to fupply the billions needed in the United States and the millions required in Canada?If there is drought in the land, feed is high and cattle scarce, the cost of producing a pound of beef is increased, the price goes up to cover that cost.But if the railways ask the right to raise the rate to cover part of the increased cost of producirg transportation, all other branches of business combine immediately to prevent the increase! In the Republic, this universal war on the railroad is carried through the nation, through the state, even down to the wards of a city.If a man is accused of robbing the railway, nine time out of ten he can rely upon a jury to acquit hint, Canadian public men know®his to be true\u2014why should so many of them imitate the evil American example?The railway managers of Canada all agree in one point, at least.They think that somewhere in the Dominion should arise a statesman big and broad and brave enough to urge the same fair, square treatment of the railway that is accorded to other industries.Unless this can be done, unless the railways are given a right to live, it is going to be as difficult to find money to provide railway facili- , ties for the Dominion as it is to obtain means for the railways needed by the rest of the American continent.Montreal, Aug.21.- Sold only in 15e and 25c blocks For snle by all Grocers.Manu by oes a Curator, Office : 44 Dalhousie street, R.& O, Nav.Co, Building.Quebec, September 21st, 1912 CANADA, Province of Quebes, In the District of Beauce.Superior Court.No.864.Auguste Dodier, gentleman, of East Broughton, in the district of Beauce, Plaintiff; ve Napoleon Roy, formerly of East Broughton, and now residing in the United States of America, Defendant.\u2018The defendant is ordered to appear within one month.Prothonotary\u2019s Office, St.Joseph, Beauce.September 19, 1912 Vesina & Ferron, PSC, True Copy.Pacaud & Morin, Attys.for Plaintiffsept2ix2 Provines of In the Districs of Suche } Superior Court No.1003.La Compagnie Paquet, Limited, corporation having its principal office in the city of Quebec, Plaintiff; ve Rev.M.Louis Tremblay, of Beaumont, Alberta, Canada, Defendant.The défendant is ordered to appear within one month from the last publication of the present order in the newspapers The Quebec Chronicle and L\u2019Eeenement.Prothonotary\u2019s Office, -.Quebec, September 20, 1912, (Signed) Amgd, Robitaille, .P.8C True Copy.Fiynn & Flynn, Attys.for Plaintiffsept2lx2 Socle de Preis of Placements i lt DIVIDEND NO.62 A dividend of two per cent on the capital stock of this Society has been declared for the current quarter, payable at the office of the Society on the Ist of October next.The transfer books will be closed from the 25th to the 30th instant inclusively, ' By order of the Board, F.F.HOUDR, Becretary-Tressurer.Sept.23rd, 1912, vept2lto oct!

New York, Sept.21.\u2014On a volume of business uncommonly large for a week-end, to-day's two-hour session of the Stock Exchange added very materially to the advance of the preceding day.The movement was perhaps less broad than yesterday's, speculation centering fargely around the old-time favorites such as United States Steel, which established another high record for the year, Reading and Union Pacific.Lehigh Valley also rose smartly on advices pointing to excellent trade conditions.This was shown not only in the company's August statement, with a new increase of $259,000, but in the unprecedented demand for anthracite coal in the West at higher prices.Steel was assisted by the higher price for pig iron and certain finished products.Oother industrials that manifested marked strength included General Electric, American Smelting and some of the metal shares.In the special class American Tobacco moved irregularly and Goodrich preferred lost over three points.Routine news was of a favorable character, the mercantile agencies reporting excellent trade conditions for the most part, especially among jobbers or distributore.Proof of the increased freight movement in the West was furnished by the great reduction in the number of idle cars compared with this period last year.Trading in London and on the Continental exchanges was much restricted by reason of the Jewish holiday, but London was a moderate purchaser here.Private cables London suggest that more engagements of gold for shipment to this country are In the making, The bank statement showed an ae.from!
