HORSES.British War Office Has Sent Agent to Dominion to _ Purchase Animals.WE HAVE THE PROPER KIND.Large Number Will Be Shipped Direct From Montreal to South Africa.If Canada supplied the horses used in the British army, or even any large proc portion of them, a wonderful development of agriculture would result in this country.This desirable end is now probably within sight, Major Dent, 1.G.R., of the British War Office, left London for New York to buy horses for remounts in South Africa, especially for the use of the mounted intantry.Buffalo and Chicago aré the places whence it was expected most of the horses wouli be obtained, but a Canadian official Intimated to the British War Office agent that Canada - as alsg out on this side, and raised horses.accordingly came to Canada, made arrangements for the purchase of a large number of horses in Ontario.He arrived in Montreal last week, and without making himself known, quietly went to Messrs.Telfer & Clirgle\u2019s horse deal- fng establishment, Inspector street, and saw somo of the average horses to be purchased in this province.That evening he summoned Mr.Telfer to the Windsor, told him his business, and commissioned him to purchase horses for the British army.The horses must be shipped from Montreal by May 15th, and while the number was practically unlimit- d, Messrs, Telfer & Climie expect to get rom 100 to 200 ready for inspection when Major Dent returns to Montreal from the west next Saturday.Buyers are out in various parts of the province, and they find no difficulty in getting all the horses they want.The horses the War Office wants are not large, high-bred or expensive, but just such animals as we have in this province, small, tough, gentle and capable of hard work.Sucli :horses are worth from 37 to $100 each.The War Office can get all the horses they want, and if Canada is not prepared to furnish what is required for a moderate price, the purchases will be made elsewhere.Bhould Canada secure this trade, it ja one which will give our farmers a means of money earning that will make horse breeding one of the leading agricultural enterprises of the Dominion.Telfer has every reason to believe that be will be successful and that \u2018there is a véperods future for tho\u2018horse breeder.\u2019 Hors: are now arriving daily.d a fine lot will be ready for Majo ay.t >= outh Afri NEW RIFLE RANGES.\u2014 1 Militia of 5th Military District Provided for at Point Aux Trembles.PURCHASE PRICE SAID TO BE $65,000\u2014NUMBER OF TABR- GETS, 50.The announcement was made in the Star \u201csome weeks ago that arrangements had almost been completed for the purchase of new ranges for the militia of the 5th Military District, and that the same would be located at oint aux Trembles.Now it 1s stated that the deal has been closed, the notarial papers having been taken to Ottawa this morning where they were signed by the Minister of Militia this afternoon.They already bore the signatures of the property-holders whose land en selected as the site of the ranges.Work on the cénstruction of the ranges will be commenced without delay, but it is scarcely probable that they will be finished In time to be of any practical use this season.They are to be equal In A to the Rockcliffe ranges at Ottawa, and will be quite as large.The ground selected, which is at Pointe aux Trembles, on the line of the electric railway, offers every security as well as the best of opportunities for accurate practice.In the first place there is a 12 minute service from the city, so that\u2019 the ranges will be easily accessible at any hour of the day.Between the belt line tracks and the firing }ne there is a space of 200 feet, upon which suitable buildings can be erected.Then extending from the track Is a fine range of 1.yards, at the end of which is a small hill, where the target will be placed.Beyond that again is a clearing of 700 yards.and then follows a tract of wood land extending 2.200 vards before the Back River Ing line to the road there is a rise of ground of 68 feet.which In itself Is considered to be a preventive for the most immature shooting.It ts understood that the purchase price of the new property was $65,000.The new ranges will embrace 50 targets.OI IDENTIFIED THE \u201cCOUNT.\u201d Local] Manager of Bank of Nova Scotia Back From Chicago Trip.Mr.J.Pitblado, local manager of

Subject by United States Supreme Court.PRIVILEGE OF MUNICIPALITIES.Decision Strongly Upheld Enforcement of Vaccination by Governing Bodies.Dr.Labéige, Medical Health Officer, has just received an important judgment, given by the Supreme Court in the United States, with regard to the right of municipal authorities to enforce vaccination.The judgment upheld the right of municipalities, for the public weal, to enforce this great pre ventative against smallpox.On account of there having been verv strong feelings against compulsory vaccination in this city, Dr.Laberge is anxious that the judgment in question should be read here.After some formal words of introduction the Judgment says: \u201cThe authorities of any city or town or the board of county commissioners of any county may make such regulations and provisions for the vaccination of its inhabitants as they deem necessary to protect the pub- i suprema lex (the public welfare is highest law); this is true, and is the foundation principle of all civil gov.= ; TERRE, inpliol ament Che part ere is en im) asment on the of every member of society that his own individual welfare shall, in cases of nécessity, yield to that of the community, and that his property, liberty and life shall under cer tain circumstances be pleced in jeopardy or even sacrificed for the ublic good.\u201d This.cbeervation, which is almost a litere) translation from Grotius, he fortifies by quotations.from Montesquieu, Lord Hale and many opinions from both sides of the Atlantic.But it needs none, for it is everyday common sense that if a people can draft or conscript its citizens to defend its borders from invasion it can protect itself from the deadly pestilence that walketh by noonday by such measures ag medical science has found most efficacious for that purpose.PRIOR TO VACCINATION.We know as an historical fact that prior to the discovery 101 years ago of vaccination by Edward Jenner smallpox often destroyed a third or more of the population of a country which it attacked, and so futile was every precaution and the most careful seclusion, that the greatest sovereigns fell victima to this loatheome disease, which Macaulay has styled \u201cthe most terrible of all ministers of death.\u201d If this was so in days of imperfect communication, the present rapid means of intercourse between most distant -points would so spread the disease as to quickly paralyze commence and all public business, if government could not at once stamp out the disease by compelling all alike, for the public good\u201d as much as for their own, to submit to vaccination.Statistics taken by governmental authority show that while 400 out of every 1,000 unvaccinated.persons exposed to the contagion are attacked by it, less than two in a thousand take the disease when protected by vaccination within a reasonable period.SOME DENY EFFICACY.There are those, notwithstanding these well ascertained facts, who deny the efficacy of vaccination, as there are always pome who will deny any other result of human exprience, however well established, but the Legislature, acting in their best judgment for the public welfare, upon the information before them, has\u2019 deemed vaccination necessary for public protection, and their decision, being within the scope of their functions, must stand until repealed by the same.power.The power to authorize municipal\u2019 authorities to require compulsory vaccination has been exercised by nearly every state, and has recently been sustained by the highest courts of two of our sister states.INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS.In reply to the argument that euch exercise of power by the Legislature may in some cases infringe upon individual rights, Cobb, J., in the Georgia case just cited, well says: \u201cNo law which infringes upon the natural rights of man can be long enforced.Upon our system of government, the remedy of the people, in that clase of cases where the courts are \u2018not authorized to interfere, is at the ballot-box, Any law which violates reason and je contrary to the popular conception of right and justice, ill not remain in operation for any length of time, but courts have ne authority to declare it void merely because it does not sure up to their ideas of ct justice.The motive which.doubtless actuated -the Legislature inthe passage of the act now under consideration was that vaccination was for the public good.In this the nérel, Assembly is sustained by the opinion of a great majority of the men of med- eal science, both in this country and in the right of governing vaccination.CR ~ ALLEGED ILLICIT STILL.High .Constable Welbronner, of Sorel | came into the city with Paul I.He is charged aul Brunelle, of and he: will have enforce su ana Ms

the Place Dominion Takes at Great Exposition.Count D\u2019Ivry arrived in t6wn ter- day from Paris having, come via New York by the St.Louis.He announces that the Expositoin is now in running order and attracting immense numbers of people.Asked as to what position Canadian exhibits were taking at the fair, Count D'lvry said: + \u2018 Ls \u201cThe Canadian Hunting and Fishing Exhibit is the finest by far at the Paris Exposition.That is the opinion of Col Gou- Inspector i Hunting and Fishing, and I can cordially endorse this opinion.The Canadian exhibits of buffalo, moose and caribou are also magnificent.They are arranged in a rustic walk, and the scene is indescribably beautiful.Canadians have also a very fine exhibit of furs, sleighs and carriages.Two im: mense ruses were sent from Gaspe,and are attracting much attention.An enormous Canadian mackerel is also daily the centre of a large number of spectators, \u201cWhat are some of the most striking features of the Fxposition?\u201d \u201cThe exhibition of pearls from Ceylon is something grand.I think perhaps the American Hall for machinery is about the finest display at the Fair.The moving roads, three of them, at different speeds, to take you sround-the Fair grounds, are also noteworthy objects.They cover a distance of four or five miles and you can se- Ject one going at a suitable speed for the time at your disposal.\u2019 - \u201cParis is beautiful at present.The city in the evening.is one mass of coloure electric lights.Immense crowds move hither and thither in gay throngs.All Paris seems to living in tle air and the wea- there has been superb.There are countless bicycles and automobiles flashing\u2019 past in every direction by day and by night.It is a fairyland.\u201d \u201cWhat is the cost of living in Paris at present?\u201d ; \u201cYou can get a nice room at a good ho: tel for $2.00 per day.As for meals, a good dinner will cost Jou about $1.75, but of course, excellent board can be had much cheaper \u2018than that.\u201d Count D'Ivry remains at the Place Viger Hotel for two or three weeks and will then proceed to Ste.Agathe for, the summer.Hey will revisit Paris in August.100

by leading British statesmen upon the subject of Imperial federation breathes the same ardent de- rire for closer union between the colonies and the Mother Country, and at the same time deprecates any attempt at hastening that union by ill-considered legislation.It is impossible to read even the condensed eahle reports of such rpeechex as those of Lord Salisbury and Mr.Chamberlain, without realising that the Empire has already attained a very practical and valu: able union.The great thing is the existence of a popular sentiment in favour of union and that sentiment is practically universal throughout the Empire.Lord Salisbury expresses the opinion that instead of endeavouring \u2018to expedite a fus- ton of the colonies with the Mother Country Ly legislation, it will be better to al low this wonderful growth of sentiment to grow by its own laws, and according to the impulse of its own vitality.\u201d Here precisely the same ground as Sir Charles Tupper who Every tbe British Premier takes bax been much abused for expressing him- welf against imperilling the permanent unity of the Empire by any foolish experimenting with Parliamentary union.The colonists have shown themselves ready to make any sacrifices for the defence of the Empire: and the people and rulers of the United Kingdom have shown their hearty appreciation of the colonial sentiment.The task that remains for British and colonial \u2014 ptatesmanship;- is- not to~cut and dry a scheme of Parliamentary union,which would jeopardise the substance of union for the; sake of the shadow.but from time to time to find occasion for action in common throughout the Empire, for the sake of interests in common.British freedom and British independence throughout the Empire are just as important as British unity, and there is nothing incompatible between then.To have a handful of Canadians sitting in the Imperidl Parliament would not be worth the sacrifice of one jot or one tittle of Canadian autouomy.For uli the good jt would do Canada or the Empire we might ss well have Sir Wilfrid and Mr.Tarte sitting in Darnum's cireus.But there are many common intercsts for which all pärts of the British Empire migbt work together without any paper unfon or circus parade.For instance, it should not be beyond the capacity of modern statesmanship to devise a scheme of tariffs that would work for the benefit of the Empire as a whole.Mr.Chamberlain has expressed the opinion that preferential trade condilions between Great Britain and the colonies is by having free trade wichin the Empire and a common tariff against the rest of the world.The difficulties in the way of this scheme are so greal as to appear insuperable.For in- the only practical way of attaining = stance, the United Kingdom derives much of its revenne from excise duties on spirits.Absolute free trade within the Empire might wipe ont the whole \u2018of this revenue if either of, the colonics should impose a much lower excise duty on spirits than that imposed by the United Kingdom.less far-reaching bcheme of diecrimin- stidg tariffs carefully prepared, might give colonial agricultural interests a much need- od stimulus, might secure for England improved markets for manufactured articles, {not neceesatily sll manufactured articles) and satisfactorily settle the problerd of \u2014 \u2014.food supply in time of war.A oo-operstive emigration policy might subjects forced out of the congested districts of the old country, but not at present going to the sparsely settled districts of the colonies needing population above all things.A well defined understanding about colonial responsibilities in case of war would prevent for the future any colonial Premier from trying to prevent British subjects in any part of the world fighting for the defence of the flag on\u201cconstitutional grounds.\u201d The understanding would be as effective and Jess offensive than a paper agreement.Then uniformity of legislation on certain subjects, (such as marriage and Wi - vorce) would be in the gencral intarest of the whole Empire.There is no hurry and no probubility that the statesmen of the present generation will complete the task of unifying the British Empire.Let it come naturally as a growth and as may be suggested by necessity from time to time and it will be all the more permanent.JUST LIKE THE BOERS.The Liberals, like the Hoers, are on the run.Bome time ago they abandoned Prinei- plefontein, and evacuated Economy Kop, near Retrenchment Dorp, which was once their stronghold, and trekked over Boodle Spruit to Dealvaal and Job-dal.In their hurried retreat, Commandant Laurier carefully avoided the Ottawa Platform in which his strength formerly laid.His line of mareh was consequently bestrewn with violated pledges, broken promises, wrecked reputations, and other debris.The disaster is largely attributed to the recklessness and indiscretions of Commandant Tarte, whose ambition is greater than his capacity, and to the incomprehensible inactivity of Commandant Cartwright whose fighting ardour has cooled remarkably, he taking little part either in the councils of the leaders or in the direction of their movements.The latter officer in now hiding in Sleepy Dump, and is afraid to move.Commandant Davies, in the east, in executing flank movements to escape the enemy, who in recent encounters have routed him, horse, foot and artillery.He is now going up Balt Creek, gwhere it is expected he will get another Klip.In the meantime Field Cornet Rifton, who operated on the western veldt, met with a decided reverse.his Big Tom being captured in Manitobasmith, and he was compelled to seek shelter in Viennaberg and Parispool.leaving his Interior artillery hopelessly demoralized in order to avoid the beavy charges made againat him in the Yukonbrand.Field Cornet Blair's efforts to control the railway were also disastrous.Without any attack from the enemy, althqugh one has been periously threatened.he has fallen into a deep donga from which there is no hope of escape, the several avenues through Sunbury Dorp, Lady York and Restigouchetown being closed to him.Lieutenant Paterson, it is reported, gained a temporary success for himself by abandoning Free Trade Kraal, which he very loudly asssverated would be held to the bitter end, and entrenching himself in the strong National Policy laager: but while thus saving himself be Has exposed the whole army to the attacks of former allies who demand that the war should be carried on according to the plan of campaign decided upon at the national convention at Ottawastad.Distressing news, too, comes from Tri nidad Kop, where Brigadier Fielding was easily, but mercilessly sjamboked, and taken into camp.And from Alva Farm it is learned that Bombardier Fisher has met his Whiskey-and-Waterloo all along Prohibition Port leaving his fighting strength, never of heavy calibre, so materially weakened that he is not reckoned amongst the combatants at all.General I.William Mulock, from Postmas- terville, now occuping Publicworkatroom, has retired from Independence of lPârha- ment Pont and Purity Heidhts and thrown away all his principles and other unnecessary inpedimenta with which his followers have been severely handicapped.Colonel Borden, in supreme command of the Home Guards, has greatly lowered his ing been discovePed that he had removed all his ammunition from the ponts and drifts and spruits around Wellandspoort, where it was needed, leaving a large tract of country entirely unprotected.A disastrous defeat was only averted at Torontostroom by the destruction of valuable stores of ballots, by which the Hoes commando has hitherio kept the enemy from invading that stronghold.Burgher McMullen, it is stated on high authority, has discarded his old smooth-bore muzzle-lodder, with which he used Auditor General's ammunition in sniping, and has, witl® séveral other prominent warriors, tak en to Swallower's Nek, where they find a precarious existence esting their own words, which are a poor substitute for interior mealies.Still worse tidings come from the navy.Admiral Dobell\u2019s Bet of phantom bottle- noses, which was to revolutionize modern marine warfare, has not-materialized, and the smaller vessels, consisting of cruisers, dredges, scows and supply boats, réceiitly strengthened by a costly yacht, are now mère targets for the enemy.The whole effective force is apparently disorganized, and without resources.\u2018Lhe \u2018machine\u2019 has failed, Even the assistance expected from the different departments, | prestige as 2 ggm-chair.strategist, it.hax: in the supply of fighting material, is lacking, | the .reports from some of them being so faint that they have not yet been/heard at nll.Oom Wilfrid himself has trekked to Tinker's Dam, where his followers are joining him, and they eay they will tight there for all the place in worth.But -the recineks are after them.mere A POLICY OF MUTUAL HELP, The policy favoured by Sir Charles Tup- per and the Conservative.party is one of mutual helpfulness within the Emfire in peace as well as in war.That all parts of the Empire will help each other in time of war in now established.An effort was made to: prevent the récognition of this principle in Canadas, but public sentiment in its favour was so.overwhelming thet it is now accepted by both political parties.Now, if it is right for the different comn- \u201ctries of the Empire to help éach other in war tie, why not in time of peace ?For tbe most part the, activities of the British Empire are peaceful.A state of war is not the ordinary condition of affairs.There ?There is reason to hope that-the end af the South African war will bé the beginning of à long ern of pence.Even whem the Empire is at war only a small proportion | | played to the limit, Mr.Fielding gave us of the people ace directly engaged.But in the peaceful activities of the Empire in industriel and commercial pursuits the great majority of the people are otoupied.The Conservatives believe that the different countries of the Empire should cooperate in commercial as well as in mili tary matters, that they should treat each other differently from foreign nations in time of peace as well às in time of war: An Imperial preferential tariff that would give the countries within the Empire an advantage over all foreign countries would bind the Empire together as nothing else would do.Co-operation in time of peace would be a stronger bond of union than co-operation in war time,because it would be more continuous and would bring all parts of the Empire into closer relations in the ordinary affairs of life.Moreover, Imperial preferential\u2019 trade would make the Empire strong in time of war.Tt would cause the population of the colonies to increase at an extraordinary rate.By buying their food supplies within the Empire in time of peace the British would build up great auxiliary nations that could always be depended upon in time of war, and eventually the nations of the Empire would become a > their commis- \u2018ommittee.The milway

109nty1 = Elibu Root, U.8.Secretary of War, Declares it Will Come Sooner or Later.NEW YORK.May 1.-The Grant Monu- men Association celebrated the seventy- elghth anniversary of the birth of General U.8.Grant with a dinner dt Waldorf- Astoria Friday night.Secretary of War Elihu Root presided.and he said there is war ahead and the United States must fight or abandon the Monroe Doctrine.He sald of Grant: \u201cThat man of stérn determination, of quiet and modest courage, should be the example of American people.The fixed determination to succeed was the keynote to his character.\u201cThere is no doubt that the commanding power and prestige of Grant at the closé of the war constituted the chief element in the forces which reinstated in its authority and power the doctrine of Monroe.It was the fact that that great commander was ready to lead the American forces in battle which made It unnecessary that there should be war with France in.the enforcement of the Monroe Doctrine when Maximilian invaded Mexico.**'No man who carefully watches the signs nf the times can fall to see that the American people will within a few years have to either abandon the Monroe Doctrine or r cessary we will fight for it, but unless there is @ greater diligence in legislation in the future than In the st, when the time comes it may find us unprepared.We will never give up the Monroe Doctrine, and if the time comes when we have to fight for it, then, If we are not prepared, how we will cry out for one hour of Ulysses S.Grant, for one hour of that indomitable will.\u201d î WILL OF

Located and Brought.Back.BONUS ASKED FOR HORSE SHOW The Bank of Montreal Will Get $5,000 Instead of the $10,000 Claimed.282tyeedt! ~ The Finance Committee met yesterday afternoon, all the members being present: Messrs.D.L.Lockerby, E.A.Sheppard and F.Nelson walted on the committea for a grant to the Horse Show to enable the organizers to entertain the Governor- General and other distinguished visitors.A large number of visitors are expected to visit the city on the occaslon, and any sur- lus left over is to be deposited for future orse shows.Ald.Sadler thought that if they granted any money for this they would have to do the same to the dog show and poultry show.Ald.Ekers did not see his way to assist what was practically a private enterprise.Messrs.Lockerby and Sheppard both denied that this was a private enterprise.The chairman regretted that the city had no funds to encourage such an enterprise as this one, which was certainly deserving of assistance.However, the question would be referred to the City Attorney to see if the committee had power to grant a bonus.WILL PAY FULL SALARY.The committee decided on advice of the City Attorney, to pay Mr.A.G.Bourbon- nals, M.L.A., Fire Commissioner, the full salary of the office, at the rate of $3,000 since March 31st last, the date of Mr.Al- tred Perry's death, pending the appointment of another joint commissioner, when the salary will be divided as in the past.A resolution was adopted asking the Local Government to appoint a new Fire Commissioner to replace the lete Mr.Alfred Perry.The chairman reported on the claim of the Bank of Montreal, for one quarter of one per cent.for commission service, etc, on the late loan.He had been unable to find anything in the contract to show that the bank should perform that service free.Ald.Smith added that the bank had consented to reduce this charge to one eighth: of one per cent., because there seemed to be some misapprehension, but this was not to be a precedent.NO INTEREST UP TO $0,000.In the course of the conversation which foliowed, it was stated that the bank did not pay any interest up to $0,000, as the keeping of the city's account involved considerable trouble.The chairman said they had been misinformed.It had been the Impression that there would be no charge whatever for the sale or servicé of these bonds.e committee decided to pay the Bank of Montreal 35,000 out of the $10, clatm- ed.The chairman reported that Ald.Smith and himself, in their interview with the discussed the rate of interest charged and paid by the city, and had sought to have a reduction made on the corporation account but had not been able to succeed.It was agreed to call a special meeting to discuss the drafting of a report to the Council, to be authorized to issue temporary bonds for $300,000, authorized by the charter, for permanent works, and up to $1,000,000 for other charges as the state of the money market would warrant.RECEPTION ACCOUNTS PASSED.The committee sanctioned accounts for $1,200 expended by the city for the reception of the Strathcona Horse.The City Attorney reported the disappearance of Pierre Lacroix, the late Build- -ing.Inspector, and.asked for.further ctions.Ald.Badler favoured that Lacroix be arrested and brought back to the city, and the committee decided to do this, if pos- soble, and to proceed civilly to recover whatever was due by him to the city, This ecislon was arrived at on the ad tng Cify Moore ron tor e application of the Night Ref free.water was not granted.efuge for the use of some
