Cause.PRACTICALLY ADMIT DEFEAT.They Throw All the Blame for the Transvaal Struggle on Britain's Shoulders.NEW YORK, June 26.\u2014The Boer envoys who have been in this country for the past two months, to-day issued an address to the people of the United States.After expressing regret at their inability to accept many of the invitations extended to them they expressed their thanks to the American publie for \u2018the deep sympathy they have shown for the cause of the two struggling repub- lies.\u201d The address goes at great length into the history of the relations between Great Britain and the Boers, which it characterizes as \u201cone of violated faith and broken pledges cloaked under the display of magnanimous and irreproachable principles.\u201d Reference 18 made to the discovery of gold in Johanuesburg in 1886.Then follows a history of the political agitation which culminated in the Jameson raid.\u2018Mr.Chamberlain, Sir Alfred Milner and Mr.Cecil Rhodes,\u201d continues the address, \u201care the terrible DIABOLICAL TRINITY which brooded over and shaped the destiny of South Africa during the calamitous period.These gentlemen combined forces so as to achieve by subtlety and craft and misrepresentations what Dr.Junieson and the raiders failed to obtain by open violence.\u201d The address declares that the capitalists ecntro!l \u2018 the editore- of these subsidized journals were appointed sprcial correspondents ot the principal Loudon dailies.charge is made that Mr.Chamberlain's ré- vival of the suzerainty claim in 1897, his public utterances, Sir Alfred Miner's speeches and inflammatory despatches and the efforts of the South African League under the presidency of Cecil Rhodes.were all directed towards the ultimate destruction of the Duteh republics.The address then takes up the various international questions which contributed towards the outbreak of war and discusses them in great detail, making WHOLESALE DENIALS \u201cof the English representation.The address declares that at the Bloemfontein conference both President Steyn and President Kruger endeavoured to avert the catastrophes hy conceding even more than the original demands on the franchise question, but their efforts were fruitless.I is as- the press of South Africa, and that.The broad, serted that the war was forced upon the Boers and the claim is advanced that the took up arms only in self-defence.The address contends that the policy of Great Britain was designedly shaped so as to compel the Boers to send on the 9th of October what is commonly known as their ultimatum to Great Britain, Taking up the campaign to date, the ad- ress says : \u201cThe Boers may be in the end defeated by overwhelming numbers, and may ultimately be FORCED TO SURRENDER owing to difficulty of securing ammunition and provisions, but the conduct of the present war, as well as the history of the past 100 years justifies us in saying: that they will never be conquered.\u201d Concluding, the address says: \u201cAll we ask, and, indeed, all we need from you in addition to the continuance of that public sympathy and moral support of which we are abundantly assured, is a convincing indication or a pronouncement delivered in such a manner that it will not be subject to the misinterpretations of the British Colonial Minister,or leave any doubt in the mnds of Europenn powers as to the fact, viz.: That the people of the United States de not acquiesce in what Vattell has termed the monstrous doctrine that the independence of a nation defeated in war is completely at the mercy of the conqueror, \u201cWe feel convinced if an official expression \"of your moral support had buen delivered be- fore hostilities broke out this war would have been averted, and that such a pronouncement at any time during the cam- puign would have stopped, and even now would be strong enough to stop the continuance of hostilities.\u201d The address is signed by Abraham Fischer, C.II.Wessels and A.D.Wolmarans.il FAMINE\u2019S GREAT AREA.Lady Curzon Writes That While It Exceeds Previous Visitations, the Death Rate is Not Great.CHICAGO, June 26.\u2014Lady Curzon, Vice- rine of India, writing to 8.D.Eldridge, of the Chicago India Famine Rellef Committee, says: | \u2018* The famine is greater in its Intensity over the areas afflicted, than at any previously recorded vibiiatién.Fewer persons will die, Yet incomparably more persons are suffering.The absolute failure of | the two last autumn and spring harvests and the unprecedented loss of çattle In western and central India makes the task of recuperation more arduous than on any previous occasion.The Government has reduced the rate of mortality, and even in the worst districts the figures show only a slight excess over the normal rate.The Government has spent $26,000,000 upon direct relief; $10,000,000 upon suspensions and remissions of land revenues; $6,000,000 upon advances for the purchase of seed and cattle, and 35,000,000 upon loans to the distressed states.The relief committee has distributed $2,600,000 through various channels.\u201d = Dn you read what people say about Hood's Sarsaparilla?It is

PRESS GALLERY, HOUSE OF CUM- MONS, OTTAWA, June 26.\u2014When the House reassembled after 3 o'clock yesterday, Mr.Foster arose, and, in feeling terms, spoke of the death of Col.Tyrwhitt, member for North Simcoe.He briefly outhined tbe life of the late member since be had en- cered the House in 1532, and characterized him as a sturdy party men, Dot noisy, but good and consistent.He was a staunch and honourable friend, and showed he was 8 gallant soldier of the Queen in 1364 and Sir Wilfrid Laurier said that the deccased d bad no enemies in the louse, but only friends.le was an adnurable type of man, poscessing strong views, but always presenting them with a that won the res- enerosity pect of his auditors.He felt that his honest, manly countenance would be missed in the louse.; Dr.Sproule betrayed strong emotion as he also arose to Lear Ins tribute of respect Lo kes friend whom he had known intimately tor over 2) years.In his death the House bad not only lost an honoured and usetul member, but Canada had lost one of her best suns.A beautiful wreath of roses and lilies was vlaced on the du-k ol the deceased member, CALLED IT UNCHRISTIAN.The House then coutinued in committee pn the Chinese bill.Dr.Christie, Argen- teuil, opposed the bid ag un-Jinitish and un- Christian.; Mr.Charlton sympathized with Dr.Christie\u2019s views as doing credit to Ing heart, but keugthiiy reviewed the facts and coming to the conclusion that the bill was justihed.Dr.Sproule thought a couutry had the right to exclude from its border any cliss vi immigrants whatever, The more be knew of the Chinese the more he was convinced at we were right in excluding them.Mr.Morrison ridiculed Dr.Christie's talk of the brotherhood of man, and gave a few facts culled from the sanitary reports to diow how undesirable a8 class they were.ue Japanese were even more objectionable than were the Chinese.The newspapers of British Columbia were raising an uproar [mins the Government on this score and e would like to know bow many subscribers they would have if the Chinese influx were to continue.He claimed that Canada bad the treaty right to take advantage of the Natal Act.In June, 1898, Mr.Chamber- in, in disallowing restrictive legislation of British Columbia, wrote to the Governor- General, pointing out that this legislation was repugnant to the people of Japan, and suggesting that in dealing with the question it would be better to do so on the lines of tbe Natal Act.He therefore moved that a substantive clause be added to clause 5, providing that the immigration into Canada was prohibited it (a} those who on being asked to do so could not write out ther application to be permitted to enter in one of the European languages; (b), any person liable to become a cliarge on the public, ete.etc.Mr.Casey opposed, and Mr.Oliver, Alberta, supported the amendment.PREMIER AGAINST AMENDMENT.Sir Wilfrid Laurier said that be felt that the House would agree with him that the amendment could not be accepted.He had ady given to the House the reasons why the Government could not adopt the policy of the Natal act, as it might seriously impair the good relations between Great Brit- @in and Japan.He pointed out that the Japanese had already restricted the emigration of its subjects to Canada.He press ed Mr.Morrison to withdraw his amendment.Mr.Maxwell said that 1,900 Japanese had gone into the Fraser River country last season, displacing that many white men.The amendment was lost.The other clauses of the bill were considered, only slight amendm:nts being made, and the bill was reported, standing for a third reading.SELF-CONGRATU LATIONS.The House went into committee of supply at 8 o'clock.Dr.Borden bere introduced an autobiographical sketch of his tenure of The purpose of the force, he said, was to defend the country against invaders and to preserve order within the country.The sen ing of contingents te South Africa had given the people great cause for congratulation by reason of the rapidity of the recruiting and of the transportation.The number of troops sent tn South Africa and those in garrison in Halifax and Esquimault was atly in excess of those used during the North-West rebellion.The men in South Africa had done service\u2019 beyond the power of any words of his to portray.here were critics who said that the first contingent would be put doing garrison duty, but at the firat opportunity they were iven the chance they were longing for.Hear, -hear.) He recalled the services of the Canadian troops at Paardeberg, Kroon- stadt, Bloemfontein and Pretoria.So they had every right to feel entirely satisfied with the work our troops had done in South Africa.(Hear, hear.) To-day they heard that the Strathcona Horse were at the front with Buller, and he had no doubt they should soon hear of the great services done by them alao.He then took up the work done by the local militia throughout Canada.He quoted from the Deputy Minister\u2019s report to show how zealously the departmental staff had worked throughout, especially during the press of business con- scquent upon the sending of the contingents These words he heartily endorsed.It being 6 o'clock, the Speaker Jeft the chair.AFTER RECESS, After recess Dr.Porden denied that politics had anything to do with the adminis- tratipn of the department and in selecting thie officers for the contingents.If they had wished they could have selected uit J.iberal officers.There were more Conservatives in the Militia than Liberals and this was due to the fact that Conservatives ad been in nower since Confederation and having seiected Conservatives as (Colonels they selected more Conservatives than Liberals as their subalterns, If there ever was n time when there was polities in the Militia it was after its re-organization in 1869.The fagt that Col.Aylmer was a Liberal had nothing to do with his appointment as \u2018Adjutant General.In the same way Lieat.-Col.Cotton was appointed assistant.! Col.Prior\u2014You could not have made a better appointment.Dr.Borden said that he believed he war of a Conservative family, General QGasgoine had selected Major Cartwright, wnd in the same way Col.(Gordon was at Montreal.Prior\u2014Was he not very much a jun- Pminent English Throat Specialist) says: «You entnot de batter than gargie with * Condy's Fluté.*»» wa CONDY'S FLUID All Rubstitutes

since in South Africa.The staff also chose Lieut.-Col Roy to command at St.Johns Bo far as bis appointinents were concerned he had not been actuated by political motives.He had not refused his Rolitical friends & chance, but us he had \u201cBaid before other things being equal he would give his political friends a chance.With reference to the )ormanent force when they came in power 1e found every officer was a Conscrvative except Licut-Col.Pelletier and Lieut.- Col.Cartwright.Sir Adolphe Caron deserved the credit of their appointment.He believed it would be to the detriment of the force that it should be governed by politics.The regulations adopted in 1898 which provided that a man to join the permanent force must be under 25 and a graduate of the Royal Military College if carried out would make the appointments to the force dependent on skill and military knowledge.They had adopted annual drill for the rural corps.as it had been found that with two year intervals the men for- ot what they learned.They thus got a arger number of the same men in successive years, and better value for the money expended.Another reform that had been instituted by his predecessor was the limiting of the period of command.fre found colonels who had been in command from 10 to 30 years, and determined that at once they should change this and give an opportunity for promotion.\u2018lhe most essential thing for the success of the militarv force was to have efficient officers.What chance was there of this with a system where a man remained in command for 30 years?Now, Ly the present rule a Lt.- Col.went out automatically at the end of 5 years.or at the most 8.and his major succeeded, so that every man who entered the service might look forward to the realization of his ambition to command.\u2018That was all there was in it for him.They had also limited the age of officers, and had established a reserve list, so that in case of an f'emergency thev bad a very lage number ot competent, able otncers at the country\u2019s command.EFFICIENT OFFICERS.As a result they had a very much larger number of efficient officers than ever before.He then referred to the High School Cadet Corps, and Cadet Battalions.In the city of Montreal there were two of the latter.Steps were also being taken to organize en- ginver corps.They had now only two such, fue it was proposed to extend these to Me- Gill and Toronto Universities, where steps had been taken to organize engineer corps.le referred to the general service medal, commonly called the Fenian Raid medal, which he said would be the medal granted for special services, ants MEDICAL SERVICE.He took credit for the reorganization ot the medical service of the militia, with which he had 30 years\u2019 experience, and said that he hoped to soun have it placed on an adequate footing.le proposed to add four bearer companies and four hospital companies yearly.Nearly $18,000 had been spent on this service, and it was intended to increase the expenditure upon equipment till a thoroughly equipped medical corps Was provided.: FUTURE OF THE MILITIA.As to the future of the militia Dr.Borden said that whatever night arise the militiamen of Canada would adapt themselve to it.He believed the militia force of the country would have to be capable of great mobility, and in this connection the change of infantry to mounted infantry demanded consideration.He proposed to make this experiment in Manitoba and the North-West next year to a limited extent.The same experiment would be tried in the East.He dwelt upon the importance ot teaching everybody the use of the rifle, and spoke of the various rifle ranges erected and being erected in Canada.e believed that the utmost facility should be provided for people to learn marksmanship.He believed that the system Canada should foi- low was the Bwisg system where every man was a soldier took his rifle home with him and at a moment's notice was ready to take the field.Rifle clubs were his ideal, and such a system as this should be devised for Canada and the rifle leagues should be encouraged at all hazards.It had been the custom in the past to give free ammunition to provincial leagues and for matches to the R.A.He proposed to sell ammunition to rifle clubs at cost price, and rifies would be issued to thesc clubs, whenever bonds were given for their security.He had already sent to the North-West several instalments of rifles for private clubs.In conclusion he eulo- ized the work of the Royal Military Col- ge.SIR ADOLPHE CARON.Sir Adolphe Caron gave Dr.Borden credit for good work in despatching the troo to South Africa, and said that no doubt they had learned much from what had been done in As to cadet corps they had been organized under the preceding government and he believed tha the work of drill should be carried on in every school.\u2018He referred Dr.Borden to the records of his own department for proof of the inexactitude of his statement that veterinary officers were a departure of his administration.le was fully in accord with what Dr.Borden said in regard to the exchange of units, and said that it was of the utmost importance that this should be encouraged and also that the Imperial and Canadian troops should use the same rifle.Under the late Government the first steps were taken to work up between the imperial forces at Halifax and our own troops some method of their mutual exchange.The Defence Commission a was begun under the old administration.» Dr.Borden said Sir Adolphe must have misunderstood him, as he had not intendëd to take credit for its appointment.Sir Adolphe said if he did not ro intend to take credit he had dome so accidentally.He referred to the compilation on the defences of Canada made during his own Ministry by Mr.Campbell.This showed that the idea of a Defence Commission was not a revelation to Dr.Borden.Their cor: respondence with the Imperial authorities demanded a study of their defences.Dr.Borden said that when he was in London in 1897 he was shown the method of keeping track of the defence schemes of the different colonies and his attention was drawn to the absence of reports from Canada, This led to the appointment of the Defence Commission.THANKS TO CONSERVATIVES.Sir Adoiphe Caron said that in any case the reports were forwarded.Then as to the Fenian Raid medals the initial steps were taken long before.He quite congratulated Dr.Borden that they were sent out from Encland under his regime.Dr.Borden had taken credit for a great reform in requiring equitation certificates.If he took up the regulations he would find that such a cer- titicate was required for staff officers years ago.As to provisional schools of instruction, iv was under Mr.Marson that two of the artillery schools were organized.When he, Sir Adolphe, succeeded, he organized infantry and cavalry schools.They were, however, much more limited than they were to-day, but in their growth they had simply followed the development of the country.The organization of the medical service Was during the rebellion in the North-West, when a man like Dr.Bergin was its head and men like Dr.Roddick had volunteered to te the front.All that Dr.Torden had done was to replace Dr.Bergin by Dr.Neilson.It was to the credit of these men that the medical organization was due.In the same \u2018way the lecture courses were organized, under tthe former administration.Col.Otter, Cok: Montizam- bert, Col.Wilson and others were the men who delivered the lectures, and be could pot, ece how Dr.Borden could claim the redit.A YUKON MISTAKE.if ever a mistake was made it was sending 200 men to Dawson.Lieut.-Col.Domville\u2014It fault.(Laughter.) Sir Adolphe Caron\u2014I do not know whose fault it is, but I have to nttack the responsible Minister.(Laughter:) That & mistake wns made and was recognized was shown by the fact that they were at once recalled.This raistake cost a y 000.He had noted it Lecause Dr.Borden scemed to consider it one of the great ep- ochre of his regime.Sir Adolphe said that whenever it was possible to organize mounted infantry and field artillery that this should be donc.The requirement for mobility of the force had been felt in South Africa through the defective transport.He bad heard in Montreal that it was in d- ed to transform the inisptcy regi was not ais valry and mounted infantry.He di bo ry nd ne Br tos, bat the new force organi when new units were created - : FAVOURED FREE AMMUNITION.Sir Adolphe advoca giving free ammunition to rifle or certain days of the year, under tbe supervision of a proper officer, and ranges, which need not ex- peneive, should be provided wherever possible.It was impossible to overestimate the importance of training our forces in the roper use of the rifle.The Swiss system, e ieved, was the best and most adaptable to the needs of Canads.In his time he had fought very hard to get the waole of the force drilled every year, and he thought that twelve days was far too little for the training of the men.He simply gave this as a hint to the Minister.He advorated the beginning of military training in the schools.He was the fin- ister who gave free ammunition to the rifle league.He then took up Dr.Borden's statement that the Royal Military College had been a success since four years.At that time Girouard was helping Kitchener in the Soudan.Dr.Borden said he may have used these words, but he had not intended to convey that meaning.He had mentioned that there were over 80 graduates in South Africa today, and he had not meant to imply that these were all recent graduates.Sir Adolphe Caron then took up other points in the speech.He pointed out that { during tbe Egyptian war 14 commissions had been given, and they had been selected according to their standing in the college.Col.Prior discussed the matter at len, h, and the House adjourned at midnight, alter passing one item.PARLIAMENTARY NOTES.Hon.Mr.Mulock gives notice that he will introduce a bill to aid in the prevention and settlement of trade disputes, and the publication of statistical industrial information.\u2014\u2014ewt WITH THE SENATE.An Irregularity in Sending Out Cheques for Fishing Bounty the Subject of a Protest.(Special Staff Correspondence.) OTTAWA, June 26\u2014The Senate finished their committee work with the elevator bill yesterday afternoon, after having à long discusion on the question of cleaners in elevators.There was also a long discussion on the mode of dealing with fishing bounty cheques, a matter in which Hon, Donald Ferguson alleged that great favouritism existed.The Speaker took the chair at 3.15.There was literally no routine.Hon.Mr.Ferguson reminded the House that last year he had moved for a return showing the distribution of the fishing bounty.It had now come to his knowledge that irregularities were still going on.He did not propose to touch much upon the question of whether the cheques were earned.It was now learned that the cheques were sent to a Dr.Wickham, in Prince Edward Island.When parties asked for their cheques they were told they were in Ur.Wickham's bands.On enquiry it appeared that Dr.Wickham was not an official of the Department.It seemed to be a case of Ur.Wickham interfering in the overseers\u2019 work.He read a number of letters between Mr.John Albert Brennan, and Mr, John Hardie, chief clerk of the Fisheries Department, and accusing Mr.Davidson, the overseer, of allowing Dr.Wickham to interfere with bis work.The letters also complain of bounty cheques being handed over to Dr.Wick: ham.Mr.Brennan loaned money to a bounty recipient named O'Reilly, taking an assignment.The cheque had been handed over to Dr.Wickbam by Mr.Davidson, who held no assignment, but the department refused to recognize the claim, as the cheque could not be handled by any one but the payee.Mr.Ferguson charged that great favouritism was shown in these cheques being handed over to Dr.Wickham, who gave great difficulty to parties for whom \u2018the cheques were held in getting them.Dr.Wickham had been mixed up in the Pineo matter.The department said cheques could not be handed over on orders, yet Dr.Wickham received them.Hon.Mr.Mills said Mr.Ferguson had not said whether Dr.Wickham was acting as agent for Mr.Davidson or no.Dr.Wickham hod not received pay for the cheques.The Department of Marine and Fisheries had received no eomplaints of favouritism except from J.A.Brennan, of ish.When fishermen were not present at the distribution of the cheques, it was the custom of\u2018 the overseer to hand the cheque over to some resident of the place to hold for him.This showed that Dr.Wickham had been acting as agent for Mr.Davidson.The Government wanted the men for whom the money was intended to get it.\u2018Hon.Mr.Prowse, Hon.Mr.Power and others continued the discussion, ODD-FELLOWSHIP SPREADING.The Montreal! District of the Manchester Unity opened another new lodge in the north end of the city on Friday night, there being a very large attendance of visiting brethren.The lodge is to be known as the Loyal! Lunan Lodge, being named after G.A.Lunan, P.G.\u2026 who was the organizer of the Lodge.It starts with a strong charter list, and at the first regular meeting to be held on July 4th there are fifteen more members to be initiated.The initiation oc the members for the lodge was In the, hands of the team from Loyal Star of the West Lodge, who performed the work in a most excellent manner, Bro.J.Thurston Smith, presiding at the piano.The following are the officers of the lodge: Grand Master, P.G.Russell;

P.P.G.M.Williams, P.P.G.M.Field, P.P.G.M.Pearson, P.G.Ar- dell, P.G.McGruther, P.G.Pratt, G.M.Crawford, and many others.After the lodge was closed, the District officers, inltlatory team, and all the visiting brethren were invited by the brethren of Lun- an Lodge, to a splendid supper, at which the usual loyal toasts were drunk.Prov.G.M.McDowal is to be congratulated on his very successful term of office which fs drawing to a close, this being the second Jodge instituted since January.The annual meeting of Montreal District will be held in this city.on Saturday, July 3L eae ENDORSED MR.DAVIN.At a meeting of the Liberal Conservative Association, of Eastern Assiniboia, held at Indian Head on Friday, the 15th of .June, and which the secretary, Mr.A.D.Dickson, describes as \u201cthe largest, most representative and most enthusiastic ever held in this constituency,\u201d the following resolution was passed unanimous- y: Moved by Dr.Henderson, of Qu\u2019Appelle station.seconded by Dr.Kemp, of Indian Head.\u201cThat the Liberal Conservatives of Eastern Assiniboia, in convention assembled, and being representative of every portion of the constituency, desire to express their appreciation of the work being done by the leaders of our party in Parlinment.\u2018\u2019Especially do they appreciate the broad and liberal statesmanship and thorough devation to the interests of the North-West evidenced by Mr.Nicholas Flood Davin,member for the neighbouring constituency of Western Assiniboia, and they earnestly hope that his eminent abilities may lon be at the disposal of his country an ya LITTLE PEOPLE OUT IN FORCE.Two strangers to the city were returning from Maisonneuve on a St.Catherine street car.Batiated with the gaieties of Viau Park, time hung heavily on their hands.One of them suggested that a flying census of the children in right along either aide of the street be undertaken to break the monotony.In a distance of ten blocks east of the elevated bridge, whieh crosses the Canadian Pacific Railway tracks, the score on «ach side of the street ran up to 150\u2014300 children in all.As many ns thirty children were counted in the space of a short block.e side streets were swarming with the little fellows, but only as many of these were counted as the eye could take in during the rapid passage of the car.And they were nice children, too.It was Sunday, and all the little ones were decked out in their best bib and tucker.\u201cIt\u2019s enough to make one believe what Mr.Tarte said in Paris,\u201d remarked one gentleman to the other.\u201cAt the rate the French were increasing they will outnumber the English before long.\u201d GOODS WERE MERELY RENTED.Mr.Justice Curran has maintained the oppoxition in the case of Smeal vs.Smeal and Emmans, opposant.The latter purchased the a operty and business of the American Wringer Company and claimed the furniture seized by the plaintiff as belonging to the defendant.These moveables were valued at $473.The Court came to the conclusion that the opposant had proved his title to the goods which had merely been rented to the defendant under certain conditions stated in the deed: Pree FOR SUNDAY LIQUOR SELLING.E.Richard, Stanislas Arbour and George Pepin, of St.ence street, were fined #30 each in the Recorder's Court yesterday afternoon for keeping their bars open on unday.;

H the Citv Council were so uuwise as to encourage an opposition which could he- come neither a benefit for so much as a permanency, it would simply play ints the bands of speculators.Neither our streets nor the business would bear dividing be twetn two concerns, without damage to \u2018both te the streets and the ehbracter of the metvice supplied.If the City Council can devise some sclieme whereby the avercrowd: ing trouble can be abated, it will be doing all that can be expected: of it just mow; though it may well fix before it the high gonl of attainment to a measure of public confidence which would enable the city to feel safe in turning over to the Council the full management of such \u2018civic services as local transport, lighting, and the like.GOLDWIN SMITH ON LAURIER.Mr.Goldwin 6mith likene the Premier to a man caught between two walls who can get neither in nor out, and recommends that the mechanic be sent for.it by the mechanic he means the elector.he will be sent for presently, and will undoubtedly release the victim.Sir Wilfrid would probably prefer sending for that worthy group of mechanics who manage the Machine, but publicity has been the ruin of them.The Premier's awkward position, in Mr.Goldwin Bmith's aimile, is due to the fact that he seems to have abandoned his efforts to secure a full reciprocity with the United States, and is not likely to obtain any reciprocity with Britain.Mr.Goldwin Smith's first assumption is, we fancy, rather hasty.So enthusiastic a beliaver in the American market as he is would naturally think that Sir Wilfrid had given up that branch of his policy when be no longer talks about it in every speech, and when he has given an apparent preference to the British exporters.But this is merely an indication that Mr.Goldwin Smith does not appreciate the India rubber opportunism of the Premier's policy.He does not abandon a thing when he drops it.He simply shows that hé has discovered it to be temporarily unpopular, or unproductive, and has laid it aside, Should the occamion offer, however, it is altogether likely that he would take it up again with impressive enthusiasm, pointing out that he had campaigned steadily in favour of it through all his politieal life.So we imagine that Mr.Goldwin Smith need not despair.He has only to make Unrestricted Reciprocity popular, and he will learn that Sir Wilfrid has never had another cause dearer to his inmost heart.But as to Rir Wilfrid's prospect of secur ing reciprocity with Britain, the great pessimist is probably right.The Premier has pretty well scuttled his own ship for this voyage.After professing himself to be a friend of preferential trade before the elections, he went to England and told the British people that we gave them a prefer ence in our market as a free gift, and did oot want any return.Knowing that they would regard any differential duties on wheat as a species of protection, he also told them that protection had been the curse of this country and that he did not want to see England saddled with it.Then another blow was atrock at Britain's willingness to give us a \u2018preference for a preference when the Liberals solemnly presented them with a manipulated preference which did not prefer.Seeing the effect of this, they would be very apt to say: \u201cWhy, that Canadian preference does us no good.Why should we pay anything for more of it?\u201d Thus Sir Wilfrid has made it as certain as he can that he, at all events, will not get us an answering preference in the British market.Bot Sir Charles Tupper would stand an infinitely better chance.He openly and sincerely favours a mutual preferential treatment of British goods in all British markets; and, if returned to power, would endeavour to secure it.On his side would fight the strong pro-colonial feeling now prevalent in Britain; and the new awakening to the fact that the British Islands are an unvictualled fortress, dependent upon foreign countries for their food supplies.The British people would now be willing to endure something to help build up the fighting British commonwealths over the seas, and thus to strengthen the military assistance which thev would De able to afford the Mother Country in time of need, and at the same time to turn them into active British granaries for the, vietualling of the home fortress.The occasion is in a measure ripe for an Imperial agitation on this subject, and Canada should be represented by a man who really desires to bring it about.LE A THREATENED SECESSION.Can the boundaries between two States be changed by the alteration of the channel of a river 9 They appear to think so in Nebraska.The Missouri River is the boundary line between Dakota County, Neb., and the State of South Dakota.At Renniger\u2019s Neck the Missouri River flows fifteen miles in a tortuous course to reach a point only one hundred yards distant.A number of farmers in the vicinity have come to the conclusion that it would be much to their advantage if the river took a short cut, and they propose to cut a canal one hundred yarde long across Renniger's Neck to give the stream a new channel.The Missouri becomes a great river, as it sweeps onward to the Mississippi, but at this point it is \u2018only a small stream, and it would not he a great engineering work to make a new chahnel for it.Indeed the formers think they can do it thaweelves, and the other day fifty of them started to work on it.But the sheriff of Dakota County interfered.He claimed that the digging of this little canal would transfer 27,000 acres of fertile lund from ihe State of Nebraska to the State of Sonth Dakota, and he declared that he would never permit it.He had an armed force of men with him, and the farmers were compelled to desist, but they are said to be determined to alter the course of the river, and threaten to resist force with force if any further attempt is made to interfere with their work.We think Sheriff Sides, of Nebraska, is unnecessarily afraid of losing territory.If the question were submitted to the courts it would probably be found that the old channel of the river would renin the boundery line between the two States.no matter what artificial change might be made in the course of the river.\u2018The question would be a very important one if the stream ran between Canada and the United Staten instead of between two States of the American Union._- GIRLS\u2019 HIGH SCHOOL.The name of Miss Florence Eaton, of the Sixth Year Claas, at the High School, was omitted from the prise-winners' list.ins Eaton gained in addition to a general pru- ficiency prize a commissioners\u2019 scholarship in the High School for Girls.: Marsland & Sops' carpet mill at Phita- delphia was asathiyed by fire early Mon- la pentailing à fous of between 876,000 and \u20ac.ea HUTTON MISED 1 ture Blake's Irish - Boer Brigade Was Let Slip.A BOTHA BLUFF THAT FAILED.The Colonials Were Prominent in Good Work Throughout Lord Roberts\u2019 Advance Upon Smaldeel.(From Mr.W.Richmond Smith, tbe Star\u2019s Special War Correspondent with the First Canadian Contingent.) WITH THE FORCE UNDER FIELD MARSHAL LORD ROBERTS, AT SMAL- DEEL, May 8, 1000.\u2014The general advance from Bloemfontein was begun on Monday, April 30, when the eleventh division under General Pole-Carew and the mounted infantry brigade under General Hutton with the two battalions of Canadian Mounted Rifles marched north along the Free State Railway line to Karree Siding, where they joined forces with General Tucker in command of the seventh division of infantry and the mounted troops attached to his- division.On the efternoon of the same duy the naval guns and an enormous convoy of supplies also trekked to Karee, The forward movement had started with two columns from Bloemfontein, one from Fourteen \u2018Streams along the banks ' of the Vaal River, and a flying column of mounted troops for the relief of Mafeking.On Wednesday morning at davlight the Field Marshel, with the headquarters staff, left the Free State capital by train and arrived at :Karree as the column moved forward.The column under General Ian Hamilton, after spending the 20th of May in bivou- ack_ four miles north of Houtnek, marched at daylight on the morning of the 30th, and did sixteen miles to Tsabellafontein, where they bivouacked at three o'clock in the afternoon.Here \u201cA\u201d Company, under command of Lieut.Swift R.C.R.,was de- toiled to act as escort to the supply and baggage convoy.The column left Isabella- f{ontein\u2014the Canadians with seven companies only\u2014on Friday morning, May 4th, at daylight.The enemy was located about an hour after the start by the mounted infantry occupying a range of high bluffs he- tween Verkeerafter and Welcome Drifts.As the mounted troops advanced they were shelled by the enemy's guns on the bluffs.For nearly three hours there was a heavy artillery duel, during which time the mounted infantry and cavalry worked around both flanks of the enemy.While the engagement wns going on, it was found that reinforcements rom Brandfort were approaching to join forces with the enemy.he reinforcements.which numbered about fifteen hundred mounted Boers, were making for a rance of bluffs on the enemy's right flank.General Broadwood, with the four squadrons composing the second cavalry brigade, galloped towards the bluffs for which the reinforcements were making and arrived just in time to interpose at the angle of juncture of the enemy\u2019s forces.The brigade seized the bluffs under a heavy fire from the enemy on the left, and sue.ceeded in preventing a junction of the forces Finding ther elves outflanked on both sides and their reinforcements cut off and subjected to a hvavy artillery fire in front.the enemy evacuated their position and trekked north through Winburg.: PHILIP BOTHA'S BLUFF.The whole forre on Saturday morning, May 5, left W.'.~rme Drift at seven a.m., and marched sixteen miles without opposition to Winburg.On arriving near the town, General Hamilton sent Captain Balfour with a flag of truce into the town to demand its iminediate surrender to save bombardment.The conference between Captain Balfour and the Mayor and Land- drost was going on in the market-place, and the representatives of the townspeople had agreed to terms of surrender, when the Moer general, Philip Botha, rode into the town at the head of a force of five hundred Germans and Hollahders.He immediately ordered the arrest of Captain Balfour,who indignantly protested, pointing to thé flag of truce floating over the market-place.It was an awkward moment, for General Botha.with great indignation, abused the townspeople for rurrendering without a struggle and again ordered the arrest of the British officer.The Mayor and Land- drost.after a hurried conference, informed General Botha that the town had heen left to the mercy of the British by the commandoes, which had the day before trekked north from Welcome Drift.They had agreed to surrender unconditionally, and would keep their promise.(General Botha, in high dudgeon, rode out of the town at the head of his troops,as the British cavalry and mounted troops rode in at the other side.After receiving the formal submission of the town from the Landdrost, Gen.Hamilton enteered Winburg, preceded by the British flag, and followed by his staff and the troops under his command.I was a very considerable pageant, calculal- ed to impress the townspeople with the strength of thé force opposed to them.In the procession the Nineteenth Brigade was given the position of honour, marching into the town immediately behind the General and his staf.It was about two o'clock in the afternoon when the: British troops entered Winburg and passed through the town, bivouacking for the night on its northern outskirts.bout four o'clock the following afternoon.Sunday, May 6th, the column marched nine miles north to Dorkboor\u2019s Fontein, where it remained the two following days, Mondav and Tuesday, May 7 and 8.While in bivouak at Dorkboor\u2019s Fontein, \u201cA\u201d Company rejoined the regiment, having brought up the convoy from Isabella Fon.tein.The new draft, which had arrived in Bloemfontein some days after the regiment left that place, composed of three officers and 02 men, joined the regiment.From Winburg it was found necessary to mend back seveniv sick from the Canadian regiment.including Lieut.Oland, of \u201cH\u201d Company.\u2018 THE MAIN COLUMN, under command of the Field Marshal, Lo Roberts, marched from Karree Siding ol eight o'clock on Wednesday morning, May 2.e column was preceded by eneral Hutton\u2019s brigade, of mounted infantry and the Canadian Moun ifles, under command of Lieut.-Col.Lessard and Lieut.-Col.Evans, were in the advance line of Ecoute.A small body of the enemy was Jocated in a spruit about eight miles north of Karree Siding.Here it was that \u201cA\u201d and \u2018BP tquadrons first came under fire.A brisk fusilade wan kept up for a few minutes, but the flanks of the mmall force were BOOT} turned and the enemy hastily trekked towards Brantford.In advancing upon a farm house over which à white fing was flying; Trooper Brown, of \u201cA\u201d squadron, was slightly wounded.His wound was not, however, sufficiently serious to compel him to fall out of the ranks.The whole column then advanced severi miles to Brantford.As the mounted infantry advanced upon the town they were shelled by the enemy, who had three guny posted on kopjes east of the town, and two mcre on another kopje west of the town.For half an hour there was a brisk artillery duel, but the mounted infantry quickly turned the enemy's flanks and they trekked in great confusion.The Canadian Mounted Rifles, along with some of the Australian troops, were ordered to outflank the enemy's position on the left.Under a heavy fire they advanced snd drove the Boers from the opie from Thich a half an hour ore the enemy\u2019s bi ph shelled our advance.\u201c MISSED BLAKE'S BRIGADE.It was just about this time Gen.Hutton missed a splendid chance of making \u2018the whole of the Irish-American brigade, under Col.Blake, prisoners.The main body of the enemy had trekked and the major portion of gra, Hatton's brigade vus in occupation of e high ground and jen on the weet side of the towh.The Teh brigade.it seems, had n holdi ridge on the east side of the town and had not realised that the right flank «of their 1&1 Erie cleared out.When they discovéred their dangerous position the Irish Brigade, numbering ahout two hundred, filed slowly out from behind the ridge they had n de fending.A scout rode up to General Hutton and informed hin that the moving horsemen were .At this time the little body of horsemen were not more than three thousand yards away and \u2018werg walking their horses slowly across the iront of General Hutton's force.Deceived for a moment by -the coolness ofithe move and by the fact that the whole brigade was attired in a uniform similar to that worn by our own mounted infantry, Gen.Hut ton allowed the propitious moment to fase, for the moment they had cleared our front the Irish Brigade lost no time in joining the trekking Boers to the north of the town.It was a feehle resistance, indeed, which jhe Boers made to our entrance to Brant- ord.The town is a small place with à single bridge and about a hundred houses and stores.COL.GIROUARD BUSY.Thursday and Friday the column remain ed in Brantford, by which time the railway was repaired into the town.This work of repairing the railway Jine' as the column advanced was under the difection of Col.Girouard.Hundreds of Kaffirs and Basu tos were emploved to do the heavy world, while the engincers directed the operations .It was simply wonderful with what rapidity serious breaks were repaired.The column, when it reached Brantfort, was composed of two divisions of infantry, the Seventh under General Tucker, and the Eleventh under General Pole-Carew.Owing to the extraordinary manner in which the enemy scattered his forces along the front of our advance it was decided to make General Tucker's division of infantry with the mounted troops attached to it a separate column to move north from Brantfort shout midway between the main column and that moving north from Thaba N'Chu under General Jan Hamilton.Accordingly on Friday afternoon General Tucker out of Brantfort in a northeasterly direc tion away from the railway line and the main column.The main column moved out of Brantfort the following Saturday morning, May 5,-at seven o\u2019clock in the morning.About three o\u2019clock in the afternoon the mounted infantry located the enemy in a tremendously strong position along the banks of the Vet river.As our mounted troops advanced they were gréeted with a tremendous shell fire.The enemy in all had five guns, two of which were evidently forty-poundèrs.General Hutton's brigade moved around on the left and located the enemy's right flank under a tremendously heavy shell \u2018and rifle fire in two battalions of Canadian Mounted Rifles nnd the Queensland Mounted Infuntry moved down to the river bank, and as they reached the river under cover and galloped along it the Doers cleared like rats out of a sinking ship.It was A SPLENDID BIT OF WORK, and the courage and magnificent steadiness of the Cnnodians were most favourably commented upon after the day's fighting was over.While General Hutton\u2019s brigade was turning the enemy's flank on the left our artillery was having a most uncomfortable time tn front.ree field batteries, escorted by the Guards Brigade, were hurried to the front when our scouts were fired upon.In order to get within range of the enemy who lined the river hanks, the batteries had to advance well within range of the two large guns of the enemy, posted fully five thousand yards from the north bank of the river.Shell after shell was planted with splendid accuracy among our atteries.Two four-point-seven naval guns were hurried to the front, and after an hour's fusilade succeeded in silencing the enemy's large guns.In the meantime the whole of General Hutton\u2019s brigade of mounted infantry had crossed the river and the enemy's right flank and as they slowly advanced the artillery practice of the Boers stopped.hey were playing their usual game of getting their gun truck away sojas to retire during the night.; Just as it was growing dark a squadron of the West Australian Mounted Infantry, under Major Pilkington, advanced along the railway line to a kopje commanding the drift across the river, which wan held by a small party of the enemv.Dismaunting near the foot, the Weat Australians advanced up the sides of the kopjes under a heavy fire and succeeded in driving off the enemy.The whale force bivouacked on the south side of the river and at daybreak moved forward to find that the enemy had cleared out during the night.The dmit over the river was so difficult that the Eighteenth Brigade with half of the convoy was forced to march five miles up the river to another drift.Riding ahead with the Canadian Mounted Rifles, who fortunately had not lost a single man in the fight of the previous after- nonn, I entered Smaldee! with the mounted infantry advance, to find that the enemy had trekked through the night before in great haste.The last of their convoy was trekking over the distant hills to the north as we entered the small village, which owes its existence to the fact that it is the junction of the branch line of railway from Winburg with the main line from Pretoria to Bloemfontein.On Monday, May 7, T rode over to Win- burg and found General Hector Macdonald with the Highland Brigade encamped about the place, Sir Henry Colville had been made military governor of the town, which is one of the prettiest places I have seen in South Africa.After visiting General Hamilton's force at.Doekboorsfontein, T returned to Smaldeel to find that the main column was not to advance until Wednesday, May 9, the delay eing on account of the necessity of getting up aupnlies from the Vet River, to which place the railway had been mended.From Col.Girouard 1 learned that it would take at jar five days to- carry the railway over th.Vet River, where the Boers had blown up a three-span iron bridge.In the list of officers of the Canadian Mounted Infantry who were compelled to return to Bloemfontein through illness,

KROONSTAD, Orange River Colony, May 14.\u2014The day after the fight at Brand.fort, of which I wrote in my last letter (printed yesterday), the brigade advanced to Constantia, chaeing the Boers, who kept up a sort of running rear-guard fight as theÿ retired.At one time during the day the advance party came under shell fire, when Lieut.Moodie, with his troop, was ordered to gallop ahead, and after going some distance they met with a hot rifle fire: and had to retire under cover of the fire of A\u201d and, \u201cB\u201d squadrons.On Saturday, the th, the troops reached the Vet River.This was known to be a very strong position, and everybody anticipated that the Boers would make a really determined stand here.that they did their beet, but all the men who have been in the campaign since the start say that three or four months ago it would have cost us fully five hundred men to have carried this position, which we took easily at less than a tithe of this sacrifice.Our men were hotly engaged here.They croesed the river, driving the enemy before them, and bivouacked that night in their position.| AT THE ZAND RIVER.The next day, Sunday, we marched into the little village of Smaldeel, the junction of the main line of the railway with the Winburg branch.Here our men had a very short rest, they left the next day, early in the morning, following up the retreating Boers along the railway lines.As they marched along they could see about three miles ahead explosion after explosion as the Boers blew up the culverts, and otherwise attempted to destroy the railway.In this way they continued for twelve miles to Welgelegen Siding, where, just as they were going into bivouack they were ordere/l to saddle up at once and go forward to endeavour to capture a Doer transport that was supposed to be stuck in the drift across the Zand River, about seven or eight miles distant.Our men oped from Welgele.acn to within a mile and à half of the Zand River, when they came under the fire of several guns that were in position on the ks of the river, among them a inch Creusot, which they fired from a flat cap on the railway.There waa a battery of 13-pounders of the Royal Artillery with our men, but, of course, they were completely outranged by the Boer guns.Towards evening the enemy tried to outflank ua on our: right, but in doing so they came within \u20ac of our guns and vere cunily driven baek.At sundown the order was given to retire, and our men walked leisurdly back to their bivouack at VW egen.Here they remained él! Tuesday and part of Wednesday watching the enemy's position, while th¥ main body of Lord Roberts\u2019 column was coming up from Smaldeel.At noon on Wednesday the brigade got orders to go to the west, and together with General French's cavalry division Yo get round the enemy's right flank ae they lay in position along the precipitous banks of the Zand River.Our men camped that night at Dupreez Lasger, fully fifteen miles to the of the point where the railway crosses the river, and which may be considered the centre of the enemy's position.At 5.30 the text morning the whole flanking force marched out towards the road that the enemy were expected to retire by.Meanwhile an attack bad been made on the enemy\u2019s centre and right by other portions of Lord Roberts\u2019 army.Long before noon the Boers were in full retreat, and we caught them, as expected, on thein right flank.For a distance of many miles, and for many hours our men them\u2014indeed, .our men were in their saddles that day for sighteen houre\u2014until finally they bivouacked abont midnight on the same kopje where a few hours before a composite squadron composed of Inniskillings, Scots Greys and Carbineers, about e hty, strong had been practically annihilated.e dead and wounded lay around our men\u2019s bi- yousck, pad to many it was à ghastly realization of the horrors of war.Friday and Saturday, the 11th and 12th, our men made a Jong detour around thé right flank of the enemy, who continued in full retreat.We never came into action with them, and finally on Saturday mérning, about the same time as the main column under I entered.Kroon- -stad from the south, we entered it from the north, : Thus, triumphantly, ended the first part .rch to oat ae Ten oa oep of cloging thie There is no doubt and finish to Sne-fourth io 149%y1 letter word has come into camp that \u201cB,\u201d \u201cC\u201d and \u201cD\u201d squadrons (\u201cA\u201d squadron is away) sre to march to-morrow morning at 4.30 to Jordan Siding.aix miles north of this place.We take this order to mean that the general advance is to continue without further pause.In consequence ot the sudden order all is, of course, hurry and scurry.and among other things letter will be, perhaps, closed more abruptly than it would otherwise have n.MORE BOER TREACHERY; >, The absence of \u201cA\u201d mentioned ternoon a hey saw a they approached the now becoming only ureeted by a volley.with disastrous - sults.The news reached town late this af- of Aus n, were ordered out to the scene of the dastard! d at a gallop, an got there they found that the Australians had already taken some prisoners.There was then nothing left for our men to do but to assist at the mournful duty of burying this form of outrage that is now so characteristic of the Boers.At the present moment, site Tor three 4.3).Such vernoon.and immediately a part traliane, as well as our \u201cA\u201d squ ced.Our men went off soon reached the spot.When they the poor victims\u2014four in num 3 t boys of squadron are just returning to camp.morrow morning reveille sounds at o'clock, and we march away at \u201cTHE FIGHTING BEES.\u201d nine o*tlock at night, the is war!

MONCTON, N.B., June 25.\u2014Considera- .tion of repart on temperance was re- suriied by the Methodist Conference of New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island yes terday afternoon Mayor Dawson, of Charlottetown, objected to the clause commending the action of the Prince Edward Island Government in passing the prohibitory law.He seid it was pot calculated to be a very effective law, as the Government rejected some of the important clauses suggested by the temperance people.Othars spoke against this clause, and it \u2018was amended to express the hope that legislation would be found to he effective and salutary, and in its operation further the cause of Federal prohibitien.The clause endorsing the Dominion Alliance was struck out by a unanimous vote.The Alliance was denounced as playing into the hands of politicians, and one clergyman, Rev.Jas.Crisp, objected to hia name being used as a delegate to the Alliance meeting.The whole tenor of the discussion seemed to be that the Conference will be satisfied with nothing short of Dominion prohibition.te CASSINI SUCCEED MURAVIEFF ?LONDON, June 26.\u2014The Paris correspondent of the Daily Express says: \u201cFour Russian

Lieut.-Col.J.P.Whitney, M.L.A.Bright and appropriate decorations were seen all over the .town, the reeve of which declared a half holiday.The schools had a whole holiday.and hundreds of the children took part inthe proceedings by singing patriotic songe.Thé enthusiasm was unbounded It is safe to say that never before was a member for a constituency or the leader of the party greeted with greater cordiality or stronger evidence of confidence.The ladies of the vicinity took a large part in the work and they were to be seen by the bundred wearing the badge of the day: \u201cWith the party; by the.party; for the country.\u201d The Conservative leaders who came in from Hamilton, accompanied contingent from that city were met at the station by the Town Council,the committees and a great

Oneida and Wa Poe de, Almas\u2019 beau t the grounds, Almas tiful grove, an immense platform had been erected and seating provided around it for thousands.Here the ladies\u2019 committee, upon eat long tables spread beneath branches of elm and maple trees, offered to Sir Charles Tupper and his friends a repast that was superb.Fully three hundred people wore guests\u2019 badges and dined at these tables.The great mass of the ple picniced in the beautiful grove, uring the dinner music was provided by the \u2018fands in attendance.Before 2 o\u2019clock, à veteran of Haldimand, David Almas, J.P., took the chair, and \u2018he platform proceedings began.First there was an address to Hon.W.H.Montague, M.P., from his Conservative friends in the district.Tt was vers complimentary, referring to his many fights in the riding and expresse the wish that he might long represent Haldimand and Monck.The address was read by ex-Reeve H.R.Howard.As the doctor rose to reply he was given three rousing cheers and a tiger.His speech was brief and confined to an expression of his thanks for the many favours he had received from Haldimand friends.If they wished him again to fight the battle he had decided to place himself at their disposal.This announcement was greeted with enthusiastic applause.He joined heartily in the greetings they had giten to Mr.Whitney and- the veteran statesman.Sir Charles Tupper.He was proud also to have present 80 many of his colleagues in the House of An address to Hon.David Tis- dale, M.P.for South Norfolk, whose riding joins Hagersville, was very kind in its tone and was responded to in a brief speech by the colonel.He was given the most kindly reception.ADDRESS TO SIR CHARLES.Then came the address to Sir Charles Tupper, read by Barrister Lindsay,

Pacific and the National Policy, expressed unbounde confidence in his patriotism and ability ta lead the Conservative forces to victory.Sir Charles was given a magnificent reception as he rose to reply, and his speech was liberally and loudly applauded, and the greeting he received was not better than the response which he made.His speech was remarkably able and greatly delighted the audience.At the beginning he called for three cheers for the Queen, which were heartily given.The cheers which greeted Sir Charles Tupper himself were also rousing ones.He spoke for an hour and a half, dealing with the broken promises of the Liberals, the promotion of the Liberal-Con- servative party and the question of Imperial trade.\u2018The meeting listened very attentively and cheered him lustily till the close, His reception was one of the largest ever given to a public man in Ontario.-] Mr.Whitney was then presented with &1 -very complimentary address, referrin in eulogic terms as thé advocate of true Canadian measures, of pure methods of adminis tration and clean government.- : \u201cYou ought to be Prime Minister of Ontario, and you would have been had it not been for the operations of the machine owned by the Government at Toronts,\u201d was the sentiment, which was loudly applauded.Mr.Whitney was greeted enthusiasticall , and made a rousing speech in reply.He 4

to the stronghold of Conservatism, the county of Pontiae, and to assure you of our high appreciation of your great snd statesmanlike qualities, as well as of our admiration of the splendid ability you never fail to display in political warfare, whether offensive or defensive, always clean-handed an ol veboerd, ever firing on a white flag, but, as à knight, sans\u2019 peur sans re- .e of the days of Chivalry, entering cause to which you have devoted so many of the best years of life.Iu the history of Canada, for the latter -half of the nineteenth century, you will appear.sir, as the most prominent figure, save ope, the late Bir John A.Macdonald, who was, so to speak, your senior partner, for you have been associated with that eminent statesman in whatever has conduced to make out of several disconnected and scattered provinces a great confederated nation, and to promote its prosperity, making the first connection between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, by a at highway for commerce, opening up the great lone land, the ho of the bison and the wandering India, to tHe plough and sickle of the agriculturist, so that the desert blooms like a roee, and seas of golden grain undulate in the breezes autumn over distances too vast for the eye to traverse, and, lastly, sir, you became the mainspring of the movement for which every loyal heart in the Dominion was yearning, that gave opportunity to our sons and brothers to take up arms and stand by the great mother in the hour of need, by which they have won imperishable glory on the blood-stain- ed veldt of South Africa, and have done illustrious honour to themselves and Cun- ada.Sir, it would be in vain for us to attempt to give the briefest outline what you have achieved in your political career, but the few facts we have mentioned will, we hope, convince you of the esteem in which we hold you\u2014one of the few surviving fathers of Confederation, the value we set on your services as the leading statesman the Dominion, and, in fie, of our admiration for the grand old man of Canada.The address was signed by Mr.Edward Graham, president, and J.W.Eadie, secre- tary-treasurer, of the Pontiac Conservative Association.THE CHIEFTAIN\u2019S SPEECH.The reading of the address was the signal for an enthusiastic demonstration, and when Bir Charles Tupper arose to speak a welcome was accorded him, before which the previous hearty greetings .All joined in the demonstration, and the hall resounded with applause and cheers, which were caught up and renewed by the multitude listening in the After thanking his hearers, open air.g who represented both parties, for their kindly manifestations of approval and welcome, Sir Charles expre his gratitude to the members of the Pontiac Conservative Association, whose guest he was, and who had extended the invitation to im.; .The Opposition leader was in fine fettle, lecu the public issues of the day and the important part the Conservative party played in the upbuilding of Canada, with an energy,and enthusiasm that held his listeners spellbound for over an hour and twenty minutes.Always fair in his criticisms, always giving a full measure of justice to'his political opponents, Sir Charles\u2019 speech was one that evoked nothing but favourable comment from Liberal and Conservative alike.In a masterly manner he turned the of Canadian history, and discussed the momentous issues of Confederation, the developmgnt and consolidation of the various provinces, that wonderful achicvement the building of the Canadian Pacific transcontinental line, and, lastly, the growth of Capada\u2019s commerce, with the xnowledge and confidence of one who has been intimately associated with other leading statesmen of his country and party, in the solving of each and every one of these problems of national importance, now regarded as pillars in the nation\u2019s structure.The Opposition leader proved in a clear and convincing manner that the Liberal-Con- servative party, and it alope, was entitled to the credit of these achievements, which have made Canada a nation amongst nations.He showed that on the two occasions, 1878 and 1896, his party had met defeat at the polls, the cause of defeat constituted a side or minor issue.On the fire occasion, 1874, Sir John A.Macdonald was said to have sold a contract in order to promote the scheme of building à trans-continenfal line: As a result the reins of government \"were handed over to the Liberals, who had a majority of 70, stated the speaker.\u2018Lhe fullest investigation in subsequent sittings of Parliament only tended to remove the stein from the\u2018record of the Liberal-Conser- vative party and in 1879 it was returned with a majority of 96.: PRESENTED WITH A BOUQUET.Sir Charles\u2019 speech was listened to with the closest attention, anti created a very favourable impression.An event of more than passing interest occurred at the close, when Collins Young, of Elmside, stepped forward and presented the distinguished speaker with a bouquet.Young, who is nearly 21 years of age, will have a vote at the next general election.He will undoubtedly be the smallest voter in Canada, as he is only 3 feet 8 inches in height, weighing 41 pounds.Young is a bright little chap, well informed, and a staunch Conservative.He was warmly greeted by Bir Charles, who had to bend low to shake hands with the diminutive politician.MR.A.C.BELL SPEAKS.After the applause, the chairman introduced Mr.A.C.Bell, MP.for Pictou, N.S, whose speech was an able effort, and one that created a very favourable impression.He paid a glowing, gracious tribute to Sir Charles Tupper\u2019s patriotism and ability as a politician.The Viceroy of India, Lord Curzon, of Kedleston, cables that frequent showers have fallen in the Deccan and elsewhere, but that copious rains are wanted in order to enable the natives to engage in ploughing and sowing the

Thinking.From documents just recelved at the City Hall on the subject of the revenues street railway companies yleld to corporations, it is shown that the city of Cincin- nat! makes exceedingly well out of its valuable street franchise, The revenues derived by the city from the company are as follows: Car license for 1899, at $4 per lineal foot for cars in service, $24,969,60.Five per cent.on gross earnings for quarter ending March 81, 1899, $30,429.89.Quarter énding June 30, 1899, $38,104,77.Quarter ending September 30, 1899, $39,- 91 = ending December 81, 1899, 336,662.- ota, $144,283.66.In addition to the above the company had to pay out the Yollowing amounts: \u2018Btate excise tax of one half of one per cent.on gross oarnings, $14,428.85.Eighth street viaduct rental, $1,000.00, Eden Park right of way, $234,00 Vehicle licenses, $185,00 County taxes for 1899, $48] Making grand total paid to city in 180 of $233,269.44.FIGHT FOR LOWER FARES.\u2018The docu ts: referred to, which have been received, at the City Hall, also show that many cities fn the United Btates are | making a determined: fight to get lower cdr fares.In San Francisco the aldermen are making demands upon the street rafl- way company to make a rate of two and a half cents for al] persons who are compelled to stand and a five cent fare for seated passengers.Come what will, the aldermen are determined to put a stop to overcrowding.A one cent fare will be a startling announcement to citizens of Montreal, yet such \u2018à fare is now actually being charged in Troy, Ohio.This rate was the result of a hotly contested fight between three companies for the Troy street rallway franchise and was brought to a close last week by the granting of a franchise to the Dayton and Troy Electric Rallway Company, which is sald to be a part of the Southern Ohio Traction Company's system.Before the franchises were granted the companies were asked to state the rate of fare that would be charged within the city limits, and the competition which resulted was very flerce.At first a three cent rate was offered.This was afterwards reduced to two cents.Later the company offered a rate of 1 cent, to hold good during the life of the company, which is twenty-five years.The County Commissioners of Miami and Montgomery counties have already granted the required franchises, and the pe of constructing the new line will be begun at once.|PERSONALS.Mrs.Andrew A.Allan and family are at Cacoun: Mise Florence Barnston feft last week for Muskoka.Lord Strathcana h le: Glencoe.Booseu a has ft

and bring about a cessation of the disorder.The Proposition is rather a novel one, and is baséd upon the représentations of the Viceroys of the important provinces of the Yang-Tse-Kiang Valley that they can maintain order without the aid of foreign troops, and that the presence of foreigners would act merely as an imzentive to disorder.Minister Wu brought these repre- tentations to the attention oË Secretary Hay, who consulted the President.Tha latter's decision, as subsequently conveyed to the Minister, was that while the assur: ances of the Viceroys for continued quiet was fully appreciated the United States cquld not bring itself not to send its troops where disorder actually existed and where the lives of its officials and citizens were endan .Téchnically speaking, in the absence of &
