unfortunate young men could not obtain the anticipated work. Consequently they cannot fulfil the conditions upon they obtain their passage, and are not in a position to return totheir homes. It said that some of them are compelled to beg for sufficient money to buy a loaf of bread. A person who lately returned from the Northwest reports that he was asked by three young men for money with which to relieve their dire necessity. As soon as their friends in the East know of the straits to which they are reduced, they wil! doubt- less obtain substantial relief and be enabled to return to their homes. In the mean- time those here who are inclined to be dis- contented with their present positions will do well to take warning and stay among their friends until they have saved money enough to ensure their return or to main- tain them abroad for a considerable length of time—until they have had time to look abcut and secure permanent employment.

QUESTIONS FOR SIR LOUIS.

THERE are several questions concerning public desire information. Among them are the following:

Is the work of straightening the curves on our railway to be proceeded with, or was the grar-t and the subsequent survey @ part of the humbug incident tothe Pro-

which ‘the

vincial election ?

Can Sir Louis give any assurance that, after the preliminary survey of the Sovtb- ern railway is completed, the roadbed will be at once located and the work of con- strnction undertaken? Or isit intended to have the preliminary survey made now and the location of the road deferred ?

Is the sum that was granted last year sufficient for the preliminary survey and the location of the road?

In the event of the road not being located at once will Sir Lonis see that a grant towards the construction ofthe road be made at the next session of Parliament ?

Is it the intention of the Government to have the Southern Railway pass through the more central aud populous yarts of the Belfast district?

What about the harbor works at Sum- merside? Is the threat that they will be dropped to be carried out ?

What about cold storage for P. E. Island

_ and direct steamship communication with

Great Britain ?

These are eome of the questions about which the people of the Province are interested. Webave nedoubt that Sir Louis will be happy to answer them at the first convenient opportunity.

KAISER VS. PEOPLE’

Ix autocratic Germany as in democratic United States, there are coming into prominence domestic questions the solution of which may ere long tax totheir utmost the ties of nationality. A few days ago the German Emperor felt constrained to assert his Divine right to lord it over the people of Germany and to claim ‘the kingdom by the grace of God, the kingdom

with its heavy duties, its never-ending ever- |

enduring toila and labors, with its awful responsibility to the Creator alone, from which no man, no minister, no house of parliament, no people can release the On the part of the people, Dr.

Reinhold declares that the coming elections areto prove an event of the greatest importance to Germany, for they will decide whether ‘the land of free thought and culture, the standard-bearer of the idea of personality and free humanity, will place itself on the side of blinded reaction

Cologne Gazette, which says : ‘We are at | present experiencing a bitterness of feeling -o keen and so universal that no period of German history has seen its like. Unless a complete change takes place in Berlin, the next election will produce a volcanic

outburst of wrath of the nation, a terrible

judgment of heaven.’ The ‘Nationa! Zeitung,’ speaking of the projects which have led to the present crisis, has the following: ‘The course of events, like the windthat blow in the highest quarters, favors the developmentef such schemes. | The German people must vot meet tbe approaching Crisis unprepared; it has to

defend its rights, and its we ghtiest :ationa!

NOTES AND COMMENTS

—The Montreal Star refers to the blunder of permitting foreign goods to be imported at the minimum value when imported direct, and atthe maximum value when imported by way of Great Brit- ain, and says: ‘ This blunder, however, is now corrected, and German goods wil! be as well treated at our spin when they come from Liverpool as whev they come from Hamburg. That such a correc-

tion should come «o late in the day is u disq uieting comroent, nevertheless, upon

the amount of consideration that was given the probable results of our new tariff policy before it was Jauncbed upon the world.

—Sir Louis Davies at the close of an interview with the St. John Telegraph said that Sir Wilfrid merited every welcome paid bim in Great Britain. “He bas done more for Canada in Evgland than any Canadian ever did before.”

Of course, Sir John McDonald, Sir Charles Tupper and al! those who managed to form the Confederatio of Canada ard ensure its permanent success, to obtain the passage of the British North American Act, to build the Canadian Pacific Railway as a means of opening up and developing the country from the Atlantic to the Pacific in spite of the comtaued and | determined efforts of the Liber. Js. are not to be compared with Sir Wilfrid and Sir Louis who were successful in persuac- ing the British Government to denounce toe German and Belgian treaties and thus get the great Liberal statesmen out ot o bad scrape.

ESTEEMED ‘EXCHANGES.

Montreal Star: For a politician to retire becauee of throat trouble seems wnecess- ary. Many politicians would be improved if they required less labor from their throats.

St. John Suo: Mr. Plint, a fervid Reformer of East Yorls, descrites Sir Wilfrid Laurier as “One of the gods.” butler received an emigration appointment because he wrote party poetry, puffing Mr. Laurier during the elections. Mr. Flint ought to get something for his ccentribation to heathen mytboloyvy.
