this ia exactly what Russia esnoot be trusted to do, aa its recent treatment of Finland shows.The Turks have always granted absolute religious liberty, though not religious equality nor complete protection, to all non Mussulmans under her rule.Rassis would withdraw religious liberty altogether.Germany baa her eyes upon Syria, into which Germans are quietly Hocking ; why ahould not Germany step in and take over the whole of Aaia Minor, leaving Russia and England to divide the protectorship of Ferais, Afghanistan and litloochistan between them aa they listed ?War might come of it, but

HEALTHY Those Canadian journals which are now eo thoroughly protectionist in their views that they regard protection aa a sound economical policy for all nations were, thirteen years ago, free traders pure and simple.A party leader, in order to secure {tower, declared in favor not of protection pure and simple, for he claimed to be in theory a free trader, but of \u201c reciprocity of trade or reciprocity of taritT' with the United States.Immediately, all theae journals, at the word of command from their leader, turned their faces away from their free trade prinoiplea in the direction of what has since been called \u201c fair trade.\u201d Since thon, under the same leadership, they have turnod their backs altogether upon free trade, and believe, or profess to believe, in protection pure and simple.These journals at one time said that ree trade was the only true economic policy umlnr any circumstances ; at another time hat it was a good policy if all the world would adopt it ; later, that it was a bad policy for countries situated like Canada, in proximity to a protectionist country like the United States ; still later, that it was a good policy for au old established country like Great Britain, and eo on, until, by easy stages in their descent, they have now reached a point at which they declare that eveu for England it is bad, and the motley suit of protection is the only wear.There are some journals the patches of whose motley seem to be ill-joined.One of these journals speaks of the strength of Mr.Blaine\u2019s position in favor of putting on or retaining protective duties in order to have them to trade oil for similar favors from another nation.as contrasted with the weakness of the Sheffield cutlers,who can only protest against an increase of the American tarilT on their production without being able to threaten retaliation in any way.What are the relative positions ?The Sheffield cutlers say to the people of the United States, your rulers have already placed duties to the extent of fifty to one hundred and fifty percent upon manufactures of iron and steel and you pay into the treasury of the United States from fifty cents to a dollar and a half as a tax upon every dollar's worth of our goods you buy or you pay to the United States' manufacturers from fifty cents to a dollar and a half clear subsidy upon every dollars worth of their goods that you buy, and though your treasury is overflowing until it threatens national disaster, and your iron manufacturers, like Mr.Carnegie, who came from Scotland and goes back there to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars, are, many of them, millionnaires half a dozen times over, yet Mr.Blaine and your statesmen, who live upon the proceeds of the treasury and are the favored guesti of the millionnaires in Scotland, declare the duties are not yet high enough, and that the great majority of you, who work hard in the sun or the hot workshops all day, and who nevertheless have become impoverished, should pay the manufacturers two dollars instead of only a dollar and a-half upon a dolj iar\u2019s worth of goods, in order that these manufacturers may become millionnaires a dozen times over while you become paupers ; and we are compelled to And ocw markets elslwhere for our goods, a thing which wc have always succeeded in doing so far, while still holding part of yours.This is a strong position and it is one which U telling upon the farmers and people generally of the United States.On the other hand, Mr.Blaine's position la virtually this.The bottle-fed manufacturers of the United States cannot compete with the strong manufacturers of Great Britain, therefore we mnst purchase a market for their enrplox goods at the expense, of coarse, of the people of theUnitcd States, that is of the farmers, laborers and the unprotected, who form the great mais of the consumers, and the statesmen who sell us the market will do so at the expense of the great mass of the people.Of course, the few manufacturers and grest coffee planters and statesmen will benefit, and who cares for tho masses?It is extraordinary how far the protectionists and the privileged classes generally presume upon the supposed lack of intelligence or upon the party allegiance of the farmers and consumers generally.POLITICAL NOTES.A meeting of the loexl Cabinet is to be held in

$365,261, which was not sufficient, and although $18,402 more was granted it was still insufficient, owing to new street openings and new buildings.The city progressed very rapidly, nspeoially in the outlying wards, where the streets are wider.It haa increased since 1863 from 104 miles to 133 miles of streets.The revenue has inoreased $627,024 per annum since Mr.Hi.George took hold.The detailed estimates for 1890 snowed that $704,505 was necessary for macadam roads alone, but only $140,901 was asked, owing to the Council intending to lay permanent pavements.The expenditure on staff was $26,510 ; permanent, $60,418; squares, $6,656; roads, $80,000; paving repairs, «1,787 ; wood sidewalks, $47,> 166; cleaning streets, $43,011; watering do., $15,685; repairing sewers, $9,565; catch basins, $17,523; private drain eonneotions, $1,713; removal of snow, $31,430; river roads, $1,294 ; names and numbers, $1,185; damages, $2.727 ; contingent, $1,438 ; travelling expenses, $1,000; Logan\u2019s Park, $4 871 ; raising water main, Napoleon road, $1.980 ; Ohartraod\u2019s claim, $424 ; health, (loots village, $2.006 ; inundation works, $11,286, and qutrry, $5,000.Hi.Catherine (Panel to Amherst) was pared with wood blocks at a cost (days\u2019 work) of $2.73} per square yard.By contract, Craig street was paved at a cost of $2.87 5 6 per yard ; Notre Dame street laid wito Trinidad asphalt at $2.80 ; Hi.Haorament with Hicilian asphalt at $3 60 ; William with stone blocks at $3 79, and Wellington street at $3 83.The City Hurreyor, commenting on these prices, says that an argument in favor of daye\u2019 work is that work was done on a street with oar tracks for 14 oents per yard leu than contract prioea.Of permanent sidewalks, 10,177 square yards of New York blneetone was laid at a cost of $3.00 per yard, 1,396 yards of granolithic at from $3.00 to $3 50 ; 039 firimite at $3 00 ; 316 bao eerini at $2 50 ; 73 yards oathala at $1 10 ; 1,004 limmer asphalt mastic at $2.59 and 1,000 yards of uphalt tiles at $2.65.Bluestone crossings cost $14,787 ; plank sidewalks, 85,662 yards at $47,166 ; macadam, 20,145 tons and 46.872 tons of lime stone Street cleaning was done principally by horse scrapers and revolving brooms at a cost of $13,-Oil.The uphalt was wubed every night, the horse droppings being removed during the day.Sixty-four water carts did street watering at a cost of $15,585.The civic greenhouses were removed to Lcgan\u2019s Park at a cost of $7,600 ; and a roadway built through the park on the line of Panel street.All the squaru had flowers planted and new benches.Regarding sewers, the Cote St.Louis main sewer wu extended up Dufferiu and Msry Ann streets, and westward to Montana street, the intercepting sewer wss continued ; that part dene in the winter aa an experiment not proving sncoessful : a steam traveller was used at this work, thus keeping the street open for the public.Of main sewers 3.209 lineal yard* were constructed, of lateral aewers 19,058 yards or 22,268 yards as compsred with 10,690 yards in 1888, and 136 yards id 1880.The City Surveyor condemns the \u201cdead ends\u201d of uwers.Private drains to the number of 1,815 were inspected by Mr.Lowe.The sewerage pumps were in operation in January and April, 1889, and January and February, 1890.The flood of January, 1890, though not high, was of unusual duration.Tha sudden rise on Jan.26lh would have flooded the low-lying atreets had there been no dyke or peu-atock gates, an J a repetition of 1886 would hare occurred,when the cellars were wet all winter.The Grand Trunk subway plana were adopted, and bridgea over other crossings are in contemplation.St.Lawrence street was widened to Lagauche-tiers, Bagg street from SL Lawrence to Durocher.It has been decided daring the year to spend one million annually ou permanent atreet improvement#, and the city empowered to borrow money for its share of the Harbor improvementa THE \u201cNATIONALMONUMENT.fEOGEXM MADE

evening as the steamer \"City of Detroit,\u201d with three excursion psr-ttes aboard, came within tbe city limits, her steam steering apparatus gave out unaccountably, and she sheered about and ran into tbe steam barge \u201cKesota,\u201d owned in Cleveland, cutting her oomple\u2019ely in two amidships.Tbe \u201c Kesoia's\u201d cargo was iron ore, and it slid into the river, holding the aevered

in faet, the paving no# going on I upon William and Craig streets wss paid fur ; with this very money.In quoting from a state-: ment prepared in the City Surveyor\u2019s department 1 he showed that the Council last May had voted $115,516.75for permanent pavements in eighteen streets, which it was intended to pave this year.Contract* bad been asked for by tho Road Committee, and received, in excess of the amount, or for $474,752 &6, a difference of $59,236.56, To illustra'e this difference, St.Catherine street, 'o be laid with wooden blocks, would cost by con\u2019rsct $16,604 HO more than by day's work t\u2019oichriter street.$2 743 more, tbe estimated co t having been $5'J,2H7 50 and tbe contractors piioe $70,030 65, at $4.10 per yard, instead of $3 as eitimaud by tbe City Surveyor.Notre Dsme east, to be laid with asphalt, was estimated to cost $35,775 Tbe Warren-Soharf price would te $32.820, so that there » \u2022* actually a raving on this item of $2,955.This was dne to the estimate having been $3 60 pi r yard for rock asphalt, whereas it had been d\u2019cidrd to Use Trinidad at $3 43, tbe guarantee being (or ten yean in either cue.The rook asphalt tenders were higher.Mountain street a« $3.97 was only ixpected to cost $3.(>0I or $30,030 instead of $32>81 asked by the contractor, a difference of $2,851.The stone pavement on 8t.Patrick street had been estimated to cost $27.487.50, and the contract price would be $27,894 20, a difference of $406.r0.Toe estimated ooet had been $4 25 per ^ trd and tbe contract prices $4,I8J (granite) and $4 49 (porpbyrj).Barrack street, to bo U'd with stone, had been estimated at $14.600, but would cost under the contract sy* tero $17,171.45, a difference of $2.571.45, the cost estimated by the city surveyor having bea $4.25 instead of «5.10 asked.Utber streets were similar.He recommended that tbe wood pavement be done as, suggested by Mr.St.Georg*, by da> '* work at tbe estimated figures.Curtain 'tree's and portions of streets (Windsir, St.Lawrence and Papineau, for instance) might b* dropp* d tbia year, or at It ait until the special c >mn itteo on ce w street railway tracks reported progress as new lines were asked to be plaçai in these thoroughfares.By so doing they would be inside the estimated expenditure Aid.Thompron attended for the Water Cun-mittee.Ht showed that that departmact' needed $138 0(0 in ord»r to complete the nraios proposed to be laid.It was no use talking nf I rrmanent paving until the water pipes were in.Tbe pipe contract given out tbe other day was for cnly s portion of the needed work, which must go on.They might manage with $100 000 for the pipe* lut if so $10,000 would need to be voted for service pipes.The amount already givin the Water Committee this year for permanent work had been $186,000, but it needed another $138,000 as it wished to call for tenders for sdditional pipes at once.Aid.Stevenson pressed the claims of the Fire Department on tbe roesting, asking for new fire stations.He was seconded in bis demand by Aid.McBride, who desires especially to see a tire station erected in the West Ward, Saturday half holiday.WHKBl AND WHEN TO OO, BY BAIL AND RIVTU.The following time tables show at a glance the various places where Montrealers can spend their Saturday half-holiday, with the time of leaving and of returning, by train or by steamboat :\u2014 GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY.Lear* Bona i-mlïr» IXfKA.1.40 100 115 3» L44118 3.80 L40.113 1.40 118 3.00 1110,100 116, 343 4» 5.M 1110, 1(0 100 A» 3 86 1.85,113,3.30 100 ISO 306 1.40, 115 Place».| Lachlne.Dorval.*,**,,*.*.! !
