TORONTO, October 24.\u2014The vlobe\u2019s Ot tawa correspondent, referring to Sir Wui- trid Laurier\u2019s visit to Montreal and Que- bee, says thaï it is doubtless connected with the choice of a success or to Mr.Tarte.The correspondent continues: Hon.James Sutherland is acting Minister of Public Works and 1t would pot be surprising if the port folio of that Department for the present at any rate, were committed to bis care.Mr.Sutherland's administration of the Mar- inc and Fisheries ent bas been progressive and and be has won golden opinions from the shipping interests bv his promptness in carrying out improvements for rendering still mre safe the navi- gition of Canadian waterways «.pecially iu Yhe river and gulf of the St.wpence.Should Mr.Butherland go to the Public Works Department the-new Minister would seemingly be given the\u2019 portfolio of Marine and Fisheries.This is, however, mere speculation seeing that nobody knows what will be dope save the Premier himself, and it is very doubtful if Sir Wilfrid has yet made up his mind on the matter.\u201d OTHER MINISTERS HAD RESIGNED.The Mail and Empire's ndent saya: Frers.day brings more details oi the Cabinet difficulties which faced Sir Wilfrid oo his Janding on It is Canadian soil.bad been practically boycotted b ose of bus colleagues who were in cad Home of mendations to Council forwarded by the Minister of Public Works were hung up.The Ministers retired from the Geld of con- | ; .should rejoice that they have succeeded in i troverty after the first crack at Mr.Tarte by Mr.Rifton; the Toronto Globe was called off.and then the protesting Ministers Yo devise, drastic measures to get rid of their recalcitrant (colleague.The upshot was that when Sir Wilind boarded the train at Rimouski five redignations were tendered nim with the intimation that they must be accepted.unless ,Mr.Tarte was dismissed.The five were: Mess.Sifton, Muiock, Fisher; Templeman and Paterson.Mr.Templeman bad been communicated with by Mr.Sifton and fell into line with pustectionict qualms of tonscience at firat, t eventually said ditto.The outcome of the matter 1s known to the public.\u201d , { DE WET'S AMERICAN COUSINS, Boer General Claims Relationship With \u2018All thy \u201cDe Witte.\u201d (Special to the Montreal Star.)

GODERICH, Ont., October 24.\u2014Mr.- Dan Metrllicuddy, the Liberal boss of the Hurons, writes in this week's Signal as follows: Some of the more foolish of the Liberal newspapers are chuckling with ghoulish glee over the retirement of Hon.J.I.Tarte from the Cabinet, and, would give the impression that Mr.Tarte was dismissed by the Premier.These papers simply pervert the facts, wilfully or rgnorantly, and mm either case Ale nut reliable guides to their readers.There are always vultures who delight to rettle down upou the carcass of a lion, but they usually make sure that the Jion is dead before they settle down.ln the present tase our gleeful contemporaries are a Little \u201ctoo previous.\u201d It is quite true that Hon.J.1.Tarte has resigned froin the Cabinet, and that the Premier bas accepted his re signation, but it is not true that Mr.Tarte 1s dead, politically; neither is he sleeping; nor has he left the Liberal party\u2014as some of the minor politicians a short-sighted newspapers would have the people of On- taro believe, and a8 our Tory friends fond ly hope and pray.for., Mr.Tarte bas carried out his original.intention by submitting his resignation: \u2018to the Premier at the first opportunity after country {rom Europe, whither he had been for some months past.Sir Wilfrid has not had a great deal of time to acquaint him- .deemed 1t proper to accept the resignation known that for some weeks past Mr.Tarte | of the Minster of Pü@blic Works.There .and tariff reform r ; of the tail-endera .lis western leader.Mr.Paterson had some - - question through his power as a newspaper , editor.: of the pulse ; party, but comprises leading men in trade, ; commerce, manufacturin | has nailed \u201cCanada for tor of the American Church in Berlin, con- | self with the question at issue, but has 18 no personal feeling involved in the resignation or its acceptance.There is no room for ghoulish glee on the part of Liberals who are opposed to Mr.Tarte's views, and there 18 no reason why the Tories their strongest opponent.I.Tarte is, first of all, à news paper man who believes in a progressive policy for Canada.After that he is a statesman who has endeavoured to do more for the development of this country erring was ever, attempted by any of bis e- sentiments of the cessors in office.He is in favour of trgde Monk said suitable to the times and conditions.If he cannot have a free hand a3 a statesman, owing to the holding back amongst his colleagues, then he must needs grapple with the great And that's what he will do.For werka past Hon.Mr.Tarte has been from end to end of Ontario, and in some last the arrival of Sir Wilfrid Laurier in this * it nd Blind for Ninete Sight at Last Restored en Years; Joseph Brunet, of This City, Says.He Now Can See After Spending Nearly a Quarter of a Century in Darkness Blind for nineteen years, and sight at last restored!

gugar bounty plan, extra fertilization, in order tu sceure a banner crop, was adopted, and now that copivus rainfalls having occurred, the plants have felt the effects of the double.or triple, fertilization, with the result of guch an «\\- cessive growth that many of them huve Rone to sced, rulnipg themselves from u sugar-making point of view.MOLASSES AND SYRUP \u2014-Notwith- standing the advance in Barbadoes molasses recorded last week, the market continues firm, sand wholesalers think that prices will go still higher.The demand has shown little or no falling off at the higher figures, and is stil] active.The strength of the market ls based upon the high price of corm syrups, and the low price of Barbadoes, as compared with a year ago, notwithstanding the fact that shipments from the Barbadoes to date were only 42.433 puncheons as against 45,317 for he same period of 191, a falling off of CANNED GOODS.\u2014 Tomatoes have taken a sudden rise in price of about 3c, quotations being now $1 {iu to $1.60 for 3s, instead of $1.20 to $1 25.The advance is due to extreme scarcity of stock and to the knowledge that these cannot be added to to any great extent.Although retailers must in future pay from 12 to léc a tin, many of them are still selling at 10c, they having purchased considerade stock when the market was yet at 9c a dozen.Some retmliers have been covertly purchasing stocks from their neighbours at 10c a tin.At present prices.wholesalers say that they do not find any demand for tomatoes as retallers do not appear to think that they can sell many at 15e, the price around which they would have to retail them.\u2018The meneral opinion is that once the price of tomatoes advances over loc a tin, consumers will turn from them to canned corn and peas.Consequently the market for these latter vegetables is firm.and should any considerable increase In demand take place, it is felt that an advance would be the inevitable result.Canned sockeye saimon, horseshoe and clover leaf, has advanced 10 to 2c a dozen, as per annexed price list.The pack of these brands is short, some think not more than forty per cent.of that of last year.The quality is fine, and wholesalers say that people must have them, even at the aévance.Mail advices from the coast state that the California Fruit Canners\u2019 Assoctation has advised the trade that ft will not be able to dellver more than 7 per cent.on orders taken for tomatoes.Tt is stated in the advices that most of the independent packers will not deliver over 60 per cent.on the orders taken.Gallon California pack are held on the coast at $275 f.o.p, and ¥ 1-3 Ib.standard at 85c to 900 fob N1'TS8-The price of Brazll nuts has advanced 3¢ a pound al! around during the part week, that of Valentia shelled al- mendes having advanced 26 a pound.New stock is now In the market, but the quantity is so small that prices are firm.The ¢« atire nut market appears to be affected tne same way.The first of the new crop Tarragona almonds are expected per direct steamer Rurgundia, due in New York Saturday next, and offer to arrive at 13.Further arrivala of Ivicas are now fully due and are offered by one importer at 11 3-4c.A private cable tn-day from Malaga quoted that market higher on Jardan shelled almonds.The price quoted was the equivalent of 47c cost laid down in New York, showing an advance of \u20188 over the previous cable.DRIED FRUITS.\u2014Prices on California raisins have at Inst been announced, and they are firmer than a year ago.Valentia raisins are about 2 dearer than a year ago, 8 currants arc easler.Mail \u2018@dvices from Fresno.Cal.say of raisins: \u201cIt |s estimated that there are about 18 cars per day golng out of this city, whereas usually at this reason of the Year there are between 50 and 60 Advices from Denia report England as buying Valencia layer raisins, and likely to take what good stock Is left.Prices ure tending upward.Sultana raisins are Also higher abroad.Smyrna advices .retort that shipments of fice will soon stop.A private telegram from the coast today reported an advance of 1-%c on grades of northern apricots.According to telegrams from the coast to-day, prune packers are experiencing considerable difficulty in obtaining large Prunes with which to till contracts on early dates.One telegram states that ssv- eral of the larger packing houses have withdrawn entirely on 10-508 in Santa Cla- ras for last half October and early November shipment.and have adyanced 1-4c premium on 50-60's over the 2 1-2c four- size basis.Figures just to hand by mall from firecce.under date of the 3vth ult, show that all consuming markets have taken very liberal supplies \u2014 up to that date about 35.000 tons gross having been exported to all parts, as against 45.000 tons last var, the largest increase appearing in the Eræltsh market, or say about 39,000 tons El SR, as against 25.000 tons gross last year.The reports from England all note a very satisfactory business, with clearances in some Instances of 5 per cent.above the tormal consumption at this time of year.\u201d COST OF PRODUCING SUGAR BEETS.The cost of labour for raising beets averages $33.25 per acre, to which should be added $5 per acre for rental of land, mak- Ing $38.25 as the actual cost of raising an acre of beets, according to the Michigan Manufacturing Association.The average yield in Michigan ig 4 tons to the acre.The average cost to the farmer per ton is $3.70.there results a profit of $6.30, allowing for seed, etc.luring the campalgn of 1901, 33,700 men found employment and 2,300 horses were used.All calculations made, there are 54,000 persons actually interested in the agricultural side of the buet sugar industry fur Michigan.For the 13 factories there are needed 597.000 tons of beets, demanding 125,49 tons of coals The supplies for an average Michigan factory! of & daily capacity of 508 tons: coal, 9,600 tons: limestone, 3,200 ton#$ coke, 354 tons: sulphur, 2Lw0 pounds.ete.The cost is $8,000.All calculations made, this means about $1.08 per ton of beets sliced.The re- pajrs for the campaign amount to about $3,000 per factory and the off months to $12,000.All facts considi#¥d, these repairs amount to 32 cents per ton.One must make allowance for depreciation, which is not less than 7 per cent.on first cost of the plant.Bo, all facts considered, this total becomes $50,000.The amount paid annually for interest, taxes and insurance In a dw-ton sugar house is $41,913.The average output of sugar per ton of beets is 210 pounds: the total sugar obtalned is 75 per cent.of Michigan's yearly consumption.Cost of manufacture, $5.20 per ton of beets, $1.06 supplies per ton of beets, §1.51 cost of labour for entire year per ton of beets, $1.09 cost of repairs and depreciation per ton of beets, etc., giving a total cost of $3.83 per ton of beets sliced.The cost of ppanufacturing 100 pounds refined sugar is MODERN BTORE FIXTURES.Amid all the changes and improvements that are being made to-day in retail stores, there is one tendency that stands oyt more prominently than all opners- This le the effort to create the Idea of spaciousness throughout the store.With this end in view the oid, high shelvin, have been done away with, and new fixtures have been put in which allow of a clear sweep of view from any portion of the floor.This low shelving greatly enhances the appearance of any establishment.It has, however, another rdvantage, and one which is equally important One cannot sell goods by hiding them away In shelves or drawers; they must be displayed.The high fixtures, with their large supply of sheif room, were the direct cause of being tucked away and lost sight of.re is no room for such a condition in the new-fangled kind, and stock is kept in a correspondingly better condition.Then, too, these lower ahelves offer much better opportunity for the display of goods on the top of the fixtures.Visitors do not have to crick their necks in order to ses the fine show of merchandise.By placing amall nickel stands on top of this fixture\u2019 goods can be exhibited most attractively.The latest wrinkle, however.1s to have the glass show-cases surmounting the fixtures Ut up with electric lights.The effect is very beautiful añd will greatly improve the appearance of any store.\u2014 DECREASE IN U.8.LOBSTER CATCHA special tabulated statement issued by the United States Fish Commission shows an enormous decline in the lobster supply.This statement covers the changes in detail from 1880 to 1900, inclusive, in the States of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey and Delaware.To the waters of these seven States the lobster fisheries of the United States by nature are limited.The aggregate catch of these seven States in 1870 was 20,128.033 |b.The catch.by reason of the catching and the marketing of immature lobsters, in 1889 had reached the.enormous size of 80,771,573 Ib.Rut this huge supply in 190 had dwindled down to 156.7567.741 1b., a decrease of nearly one-half.The catch last year, 1901, according to the estimates of the States Commissioners, had declined to about 11,083,488 Ib, \u2019 ol THIS petitive battle of trade.or nearly one-quarter less than the prev.lous year.While the supply of lobsters during the last twelve vears has fallen or, Dearly three-fifths.during the last twenty years their price has nearly doubled, owing Xreatly to the vast diminution supply.his appreciation may also be attributed to the increased and improved facilities {or transportation, leading to a more widespread distribution and demand.WHOLESALE GROCERY MARKET.The following prices to retall merchants are quoted for the Star by

Secretary Entered Sporting Spaniels.OTHERS WITHDRAW EXHIBITS Mrs.Howard Gould Very Much Disappointed by the Defeat of Her Prize Pug, Black Knight.NEW YORK, October 24.\u2014 There is a lively row on in the Ladies\u2019 Kennel Aseo- ciation over the awarding yesterday of the Sporting Spaniel Produce Plate, presented by Mrs.D.W.Evans, Mrs.Evans, who is the Secretary-Treasurer of the association, entered her own dogs in the competition and the prize was awarded to her by George Roper, acting ns judge.As a result of this decision Mrs.Robert Stride, of Coneyhurst, Agawan, Mass, who has a fine exhibit of sporting spaniels, has withdrawn her dogs from further competition and has cancelled ber application for membership in the association.\u201cI never before heard of such a thing,\u201d said Mrs.Btride, last night, \u201cas an individual offering a prize an then Winning it.According to the cofstitution of the ies\u2019 Kennel iation 118 object is to encourage the breeding of dogs to the highest standard of perfection.1 do not think .Evans\u2019s action is likely to encourage other breeders.When I protested to her, she said: \u2018We will talk it over presently,\u2019 but 1 told her I did not want to valk it over and that I should have nothing more to do with the association.Nor will 1, I have talked with several other members of the asociation and they speak of Mrs.Evans's action in the matter as most ungenerous.\u201d Mrs.Evans said that under the rules of the association she had a perfect right to enter her dogs, and that if \u2018the judge saw fit to award them the prize it

LACHUTE, October 24.\u2014 Something unique has been achieved by the Liberals ot Argenteuil.They assembled here in convention yesterday, about 200 of them, together with a Minister of the Crown; they nominated a candidate for the House of Commons, and they talked politics for nearly three hours, but through it all not a man mentioned the name of J.Israel Tarte or referred to the political topic in which the country is taking any interest.The particular reason for assembling was in order that they might select a man to contest the constituency in place of the late Dr.Christie.In order to assist at the deliberations there came Mr.J.=.Buchan and Capt.W.Evans, of Montreal.Mr.Philip Demers, M.P., Mr.J.A.N.MeKay, of Montreal, and Hon.Sidney F:=her, Minister of Agriculture.They were met here by Mr.WW.A.Weir, the local mum- ber, whose activity and energy, tug-ther the acknowl guide, councilor and friend of the Liberals in convention as sembled.In fact .Weir was pbviously the whole show and those whom he kept within the prearranged limits seemed to cn- joy the way he did it.ABSENCE OF ORGANIZATION.A certain absence of previous organisa: tion, à latk of the political convention habit, was noticeable among the genticmen who assembled at the Town Hall early in the afternoon.This situation was explained by the circumstance that for several vears past nobody dreamed of offering opposition to Dr.Christie.His supporters used to assemble at election time to give in their formal adherence and to entbusiastically renew their allegiance, but all who came were welcome and nobody was asked whether he were a delegate or otherwise.Yes terday things were a little different.A contest of some kind wus expected, and delegates had been chosen from all the polling places.Many of these delegates, including more than one from Lachute, failed to put in an ap ce, so their places were supplied by picking the requis:te number from among those present.THE ELECTION OF OrFICERS._The first business on hand was the elce- tion of officers.This was carned out very smoothly, the only peculiar twist in the PR & being the sclection of Mr.W.=.odd, of St.Andrews, as the English secretary.Apparently the reason why Mr.Todd got the office was because he was absent and there was nobody to object on his bebali.However, it is probably all right, as the French secretary, Mr.J.E.Valois, seems to be the man who does the work.The officers named were as follows: President, Robt.Creswell, Lachute; vice- presidents, Robt.Watson of St.Andrews, ] Janvier St.Onge of (Chatham.Wm, Wade of Grenville, G.J.Wal\" ar of St.Jerusalem: secretaries, J.E.Valo.N.P,, Lachute, and Ww.8.Todd, Bt.Andrews; committee, Jas.Chambers of Chatham, Coustant Courte of Harrington, Jas.Gill of Grenville, Hugh Walsh of St.Andrews, Alex.Calder of Chat- ham, Jos.Gagnier of Wentworth, Wm.\u2014 4 .Thos.Dixon of Lake- field, Thos.Weir of Chatham, John Gill of Greavile, Wm.D.Graham of Arundel, Bidæey Boyd of Wentworth, Wm.A.Walker of Calumet, Henry Barclay of Carril- ] Jno.McKliusky of Harrington, Jno.of Avoca, and Wm.Burus of Montcalm.DIFFERENCE OF OPINION AS TO CANDIDATE WAS ONLY APPARENT.Then came the important matter, the obtaining of a candidate.This had been carefully arranged beforehand, although there was the appearance of a difference of opinion.A ballot paper was handed «round bearing the names of Mr.Thos.Christie, of Lachute, and Mr.R.P.De La Ronde, of St.Andrews.Complhmentary sominations were offered to Mr.W.A.Weir rad Mr.J.8.Buehan, but both declined.A delegate named Wm.Walsh came near to causing trouble by offering the name of Mr.kirk Cross, of Montreal, but Mr.Weir smoothed things over with a few di plomatic sentences and Mr.Cross was withdrawn.A vote was taken which show- od Mr.Christie 55.Mr.De'La Ronde 13.\\Vhereupon the usual cheers, and the usual notion to make it unanimous.While the arrival of Mr.Christie was veing awaited, Mr.Weir seized the oppor.\u2018unity to make a few remarks and \\meaden.tally to set forth the cry upon which the Liberal campaign in the constituency will an doubt be eonducted.He sneered at Mr.Perley, the Conservative candidate, for being wealthy.He teclared that \u201cthe \u2018onservatives, every man of them in this rounty are looking for Perley's money.\u201d sut that on the other side would be found the inanhood, the honour, the integrity and the beat intelligence of Argenteuil.He added that Mr.Perley wanted the title of M.P.siaply for his social advantage \u201cso that he nay be invited to dine with \" nu A Co JUSTIO bs portrayed as a woman, yet her sex might complain that they get scant benefit of her powers.There is little justice, it would seem, in the suffering that many women undergo month after month.Justice acts upon the maxim that i&no ance of the law cannot be pleaded in mitigation of punishment.It is ignorance which causes so much Cari) et] womanly suffering.Ignorance of the uirements of _ voms ignorance on the part of those who attempt to cure and fail, and ignorance of the fact that Dr.Pierce's Favorite ion ces voOmanly 18 diseases It establishes sl speed regularity, dries weakening ou Sn (A drains.heals inflammation CT and ulceration and cures female weakness.\"When I first wrote to Doctor Pierce concerning my health,\u201d Ways Mra.Mollie f Carpenter, of maria, Cumberland Co.Tenn, *I was #0 could only write a few antil I woul ve to rest;

both saul a few nice things about the candidate and botb emphasi their great admiration for Sir Wilfrid Laurier.HON.SIDNEY FISHER LEFT THE TARIFF SEVERELY ALONE.Hon.Sidney Fisher, Minister of Agricul ture, was the orator of the day.He spent over an hour setting forth his perfect satis faction with things as they are.Unless his satisfaction involves an i ence, there was nothing in his remarks to indicate what is to be the future course of the Government.Apart from this omission the \u2018speech was a good one, clear fluent, and forcible.He began by stating his extreme regret at the circumstance which had necesmtated a convention of the Liberals of the county.He had been charged to bring to the electors Sir Wilfrid Luurier's message of sympathy at their loss.He hinted that Mr.Perley should not have come from another province to seck a constituency, and referred.in > ing, to that gentleman's unsuccessful attempt to become the represntative of the county of Russell.The vernment of Nir Wilfrid Laurier had a record of which it had good reason to be proud.It had always worked in the interest of the country.as was proved by the condrtion of the coun- to-day, in comparison with what it was when they took oflice.They had been charged with being false to their pledges.This charge was entirely untrue.They had done as they promised prior to 1806, and in 1900 their actions endorsed by the electors.Certainly they had added to the public debt.He did not remember that they bad ever promised not to do so.In the mx years of this Government they had nt, in round figures, $11,000,000 on capit- account.amount, about $26,000,000 had been drawn from the annual revenues, Jeav- ing $13,000,000 to be added to the debt.This was a much better showing than the Conservatives had been able to make.The addition to the debt mad) by the Liberals had been for good objects.There had been, for mstance, $10,000,000 epent on canals, about $7,000,000 on railways, and a considerable sum on the South African war.When they came into office they found a high tariff which they decided to reform and readjust.Consequently they introduced, in 1897, the tariff which had been in force ever since,and which had given to commerce a stabil\u2018ty entirely unknown under Conservative adm\u2018nis- tration.The duties under the Conservative tariff had averaged 18 to ?8 per cent.Under the present tariff they averaged, last vear 16.06 per cent.a decrease of 2.22 per cent, or about one-eighth.This decrease in the rate of duty had resulted in an augmentation of the revenue.Last year the revenue from customs was over $50,000.000.and.this had been accompanied bv a vast increase in trade and commerce.The aggregate trade of Canada, from 1892 to 1896, was $1,183.000.000, For the past four years it was $1,854,000,000, an increase of $458,000.000 In the progress of trade during these four years Canada stood at the head of the nations of the world.A good deal of this amazing prosperity had been due tn agriculture.@ exporte of ammals and their products had increased 8112.000,000 in wix years, while the increase of farm produce #fuch as grain, etc, had been $58.000,000.making a total increase in the products of the farm of $190,000,000.in six years, or an average of nearly $32,000,000 a year.CONDITION OF OTHER INDUSTRIES.Other industries were pros agriculture was prosperous.e exports of manufactured goods had increased from £45.000.000 to $80,000,000.A policy which brought about these results must be a policy that met the conditions of the country.Population, aleo, was increasing espec- ally in the West.On what ground could tie electors be asked to condemn a government which had done so well.Mr.Fisher concluded with a declaration that Sir Wilfrid Laurier was in excellent health, despite 1eports to the contrary.TRIBUTE TO LATE DR.CHRISTIE.Before the meeting was brought to a close, the following resolution was passed: \u201cThat the Liberal party of the county of Argenteuil, astembled in convention, desires to put on record its profound regret at the death of the late federal member, Dr.Thomas (Christie, to whose stalwart courage, steady devotion to Liberal principles and high ideals, the county of Argentewl is under a lasting debt of gratitude.« \u201cThat this meeti so mowrns the removal by death of John Hay, of Browns- burg;

1902.MUST HAVE A PROGRESSIVE MINISTER.It is vitally important for the country, Quite apart from all questions of party politics and personal ambition, that the Minister who takes up the Public Works portfalio shall be as progressive, as phicky, as thoroughly convinced of the necessity of yushing vigorously ahead with the modern- zation of Canada\u2019s commercial and transportation equipment, as was the Minister who has fist laid it down.Whatever else may be said of Mr.Tarte, he appreciated the great fact that the hour of opportunity bas struck for Canada.We are on the brink of immense develop- ment\u2014or else of being shouldered aside for another generation because found unready to hold and use the benefits which are about to be poured into our lap.It is with us, now, a question of \u201cplant.\u201d Will our harbours be ready to accommodate the commerce which will come to them?Will our means of transportation be able to carry east the rapidly increasing crops of the West, and to return to the west the which they will buy?Or, will home-seekers be manufactured articles kept out of the country because, if they raise grain, they cannot market it; and will shipping be kept from our ports by Jack of modern devices for safety and handling cargo; and will capital be prevented from developing our natural wealth because the national \u2018plant\u2019 is so meagre that pottering with it will eat up all its profits?These are the vital questions before the Canadian people.The petty dispute as to whether this cor that party be \u201cin.\u201d or this or that man be Minister, is bardly worth a glance in comparison with them.Now Mr.Tarte was a progressive Minister.He was rushing ahead the proper equipment of the country as rapidly as he could.Some of his \u201cmeddling\u201d with other men's departments, was, doubtless, due to bis zeal in this respect.But now he is out.And the first question before the people should be-not the rights and wrongs of his dispute with the Premier\u2014but whether his policy of \u2018\u2018push\u201d goes out with him.We can eettle this little affair of the Laurier-Tarte correspondence afterward.The thing now is to see to it, if possible, that Mr.Tarte's successor continues ihe Tarte policy.We simply cannot afford to have an era bf stagnation set in now.The arming of the country for the commercial war of the immediate future, must go on.Can- ads must be equipped to compete with the United States for her fair share of the trade and commerce of this continent.The sacrifice of a Minister is as nothing to the crippling of the.nation at a critical moment in het commercial and industrial snd agricultural development.The question is not\u2014Why did Tarte go?but Will the Tarte policy stay?a CANADIAN LIVE STOCK IN ENG- , LAND.Mr.Hanbury, President of the Board of Agriculture of the United Kingdom yes day received a deputation which asked for the re-opening of British ports to live stock from the Argentine Republic.He is reported to have spoken optimistically of the proposal and to have expressed his belief that af no distant date Argentina would become - @ constant provider of live stock for Great Britain owing to the possible diminution of the Canadian and American supplies.The attitude of the Imperial Government pon this important question passes com- proliensdon.It is inconceivable that Mr.Hanbury or any of his colleagues should wish to distriminate against Canada and in faveur of Argentina without some œub- stantiel ressoh.What can the reason be?There is no infectious cattle disease in Canada aginst which it is necessary to protect the British herds.The genera! impression sn the Dominion has been that tha regulation requiring the slaughtering of Can- * adisn cattle at the port at which they are buded wes vuaily 8 bit of disguised protes- tion for the British farmer.But in that case why should Mr.Hanbury speak hope- iully of abolishing this protection in favour of Argentina rather than in favour of Canada?And upon what does he base his cheerful expectations of a diminution in the exports of Canadian cattle.\u2014m THE LOADED AUTOBIOGRAPHY.The announcement is made that the Sultan of Turkey has written his autobiography, which will be published after his death; ani Christian Europe is repre sented as shivering in its shoes at the revelatons of duplicity on the part of Christan statesmen seeking the support of Mohammedan Turkey, which it will centain.This use of the autobiography as a dead ly weapon is capable of alarming development.Ex-Presideut Kruger has quite cheerfully turned his into a battery of long-range guns; but, with characteristic ccurage, he fires 1t while still alive and within reach of return fire.The bultan, however, is to take the final \u201ccover\u201d which the best aimed bullet can never pierce, before the story of his life begins target practice.There is no compelling a dead man to acknowledge a mistake.The victim can deny and disprove; hut there will be al- wavs those who will think that if the lips which hurled the charge could speak again, they would make it good.This is the unfair advantage that a wan when be bolds his accusation back until he is beyond the reach of question.Nevertheless the posthumous autobiography can be used to bring down many a fine reputation.This is especially true when the man who arranges for its firing is careless respect:ng his own.Now, the Sultan probably does not give two whiffs of his nargileh what Eurvpe says in reply.He cares only for the good opinion of \u201cthe faithful\u201d; and.to the Moslem, attacks by a Christian press upon \u201cthe head of the church\u201d would only be the sputtering of infidel hate.On the contrary, Christian Europe has long held its diplomatists in such esteem that it will be inclined to find considerable wheat in the chaff of the Sultau\u2019s revelations.If this halut of writing explosive autobiography should break out in Canadian publie Lie, our people might, at all events, find increased entertainment in politics.If almost any Mimster or public contractor were to announce that be was at work on his biography, but that he preferred to defer its publication until he was safely in another world, publishers would fall over each other in their eagerness to get the manuscript.It would need no better advertisement than this precautionary measure of posthumous publication; And what racy reading some of them would make?Frankness would be the only literary virtue absolutely requisite; and there are men in public life today who are quite startlingly frank.Increase this quality by the personal immunity which death brings, and some Chnstian states men nf Canada would kno% what their European co-religionists feel like under the Sultan's threat, if two or three selected political autobiographies were an- pounced here.\u201cUnder Two Flags; or the \u201cLife and Correspondence of J.Israel Tarte,\u201d by Himself, would bring on an attack of nerves in many quarters.\u2018\u2019My Inmost Thoughts,\u201d by Sir Richard Cartwright, would be a good seller; while \u201cWhat 1 know About Cold Justice,\u201d by Sir Olver Mowat, would be widely read.In fact, the solidarity of Governments would be pretty well assured if a dismiss ed Minster were likely to bid farewell with\u2014 \"Well, I will have time now to write my autobiography.\u201d SILENT OPINION.Silence, it is commonly said, gives ron- sent; bot silence, we all know, is often a s.gu of dissatisfaction.À propositon receiv- et :n mlence is generally cue that nubody 3» enthusiastic about.When a man is mlent you cannot tell what he is thinking or what he may be planning; and if, tecause hs voice was put raised in opposition to a scheme or a policy, or a line of action, we conclude that he 1s in favour of it, we may be preparing for ourselves an unpleasant surprise.misunderstanding, both in private and mm public matters.A man has some favourite notion that he talks a great deal about.The people he talks to do not oppose him.They may even smile and assent in a vague kind of a way which does not commit them to anything; and the enthusiast soon 1m- agines that everybody sees the matter just as he does.He 1s so encouraged that he goes ahead with his scheme, and, in due tame, gets into lots of trouble.Sometimes the applause of a clamorous few 18 mima- ken for the approval of the many.The noisy are supposed to be represe tative of the silent multitude when they are not.The multitude has quite other thoughts.In political matters silent opinion is a great force.The more a man thinks, as a rule, the less he is inclined to talk.The incessant talkers are those who dwell on the surface of things and who take short and shallow views.The statesman is the man who is capable of discounting the chatter of the hour, and penetrating the minds of those who do not do much chattering.He alo knows how to appeal to the silent opinion.À wingle thing that he says or does that strikes the average inexpressive man as distinctly right, will go a long way in securing that man\u2019s support and allegiance.The mere politician ia carried away by the clamour he himself helps to create.The stateeman knowwe that \u201cbeyond these voices\u2019 there is a large regiop where common sense and good average ideas of public duty prevail, or may be made to prevail.The trouble is that politicians are many and statesmen are few, and that the statesmen himself has to work, for the most part, through the #oliticians\u2014the man of long views through the men of short views.Stil] statesmanship can always vindicate it- wlf.It can hold up the standard, and let others approximate to it as best they may.The country will always hear gladly, a man who has a true story to tell, and who is great enough to tell it simply.| The complaint comes from England that many of the Canadian apples \u2018sent over this year were not up to the mark.Rome of them are declared too poor for the costers\u2019 barrows.There ought to be enough common business sagacity among our apple shippers to prevent this.Once let the notion get fixed in the English mind that Canadian appièeu ire of à low takes - Here, in fact, we have a cause of frequent | } grade; and our chances to capture the - market for this best of the Canadian fruits will be at an end for years.By a little care and common sense, we can make the description \u201cCanadian,\u201d when applied to apples, at all events, a guarantee of strikingly superior quality; and then it is merely a question of how many such apples we can grow.We are advertising onr- selvea now in Britain; and it is the most short-yighted policy to write ourselves down as a country where apples sre an inferior fruit.When Sir Wilfrid Laurier, in his letter to Mr.Tarte, used the words \u201cla premiere chose pour vous a fur\u201d he used a very English idiom.\u201cThe ur~t thing for you to do\u201d

the first message related to Wednesday\u2019s disorders there, and the second reported that the strike was ended and that the work would be resumed to-day.Immediately afterwards the following order of the day was accepted by the Government and a ted by 375 votes to 164: The Chamber of Deputies, taking into Scout the declaration of the President of will press in Parlia- the discussion of and he to use all his in- rh À parties to accept\u2019 ardent Roosevelt's name thusi- | astically cheered in the Chamber of pu.ties ay wben M.Jaures (Beeb ae the Government to follow the ex- American President\u2019 ilfa- tory attitude in dealing with arlene PREVENTED A CLASS FIGHT.Justice Harlan fShowed That He Could Cope With Youngsters.WASHINGTON, October M.\u2014 \u2018 Harlen, où the United Bates © rt, who is mem the Columbian Universit of he facult of this city, last ni ed a class fight sophom t in one youngsters were he entered the arena.a After regular lecture 2 the evening, the rst men undertook to open 8 meetin which bad been previously ñ when the sophomores against the door of the hall.Justice Harlan a and in & commanding voice ord the combat to cease.The sophomores paused for a moment, but were evidently not disposed to obey the order: for they immediately began a second assault.It was then that the eminent jurist took band in the fra le reached e a charge At this point Jar, dragged him from the pile.jurist then directed the second year men to dis perse, and they .You bave often felt drowsy and feverish OPERATORS ADVANGE THE PRICE OF COL It Will Cost Retailers FiftyA Cents a Ton More TILL THE FIRST OF JANUARY The Cost bf Production at the Mines Has Increased Owing to the Strike\u2014Strike News.PHILADELPHIA, Pa., October 26.\u2014 In view of the resumption of mining of anthracite coal the Philadelphia & Reading Railway Company, last night, issued the following statement: The Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Company, president's office, Philadelphia, October 23, 1902: Mr.C.E.Henderson, general manager: Dear Sir,\u2014 The repor.s of the superintendents in cha of the mines show that, as a result of the strike, the mines and mining plants hes susiained cousiderable injury and their respective working organizations have been impaired.For some time to come the collieries cannot be worked to produce their average quanuty of coul.This will increase the cost of production.Estimates have been submitted showing the possible increase in cost per ton, at the several groups of colheries.The geural average exceeds 50 cents per tou.You will, therefore, add to the circular price 50 cents per ton\u2014th.s additional price to continue until the first of January, 190, by which time we bope tu reach a no condition of mining and production.Notwithstanding the fuot that during the strike no coal was sold by our company at an advance over the circular price, the priee has been unreasonably ad.anced to the pub- Le by some retail dealers.In the distribution of the coal, theretore, you will, so as practical, supply the dealers willing te well cual to the public at reasonable prices, Where dealers seek to obtain an unfair profit from the public, you will promptly take steps to supply ihe reasonable demands of the public directly.Yours truly, GEO.F.BAER, President.In pursuance of these instructions come tained above, circulars have been issued ing effect October 24.i An effort will be mude to arrange the dis tribution of cual so that those in need may at least receive a small portion of th wants, and with this purpose in view dealers will be requested to restrict the amount which will for the present be sold to consumer w thi the limite of his reasonable : immediate requ:rements.The opinion is expressed hv Mr.Hendes son that the prices for egg, store, and chest nut coal, delivered to nouseholders in the city of Philadelphia, should not in any way exceed $8.75.;
