This is a decidedly bad showing for a party which mounted to power on the cry that their opponents had heaped deficit upon deficit.
We all know that the Grit statement of 1891 was wrong to the extent of $70,000. Bat we let that pass, and we say nothing about the outstanding accounts of last year, in view of the Patriot’s practical admission that the present Government have, in three short years, sunk the Pro- vince in debt to the amount of close upon $200,000.00! This, together with taxa- tion, unfelt in the days of Sullivan and Ferguson, has followed the admission te office of the Honorable Frederick Peters and his party.

Is it uot, rather, evident that our present financial position demands a complete and radical change of Government and policy?
NOTES AND COMMENTS
—Deposits inthe Post Office savings banks continue to increase month by month. The Montreal Gazette remarks that there is somewhere a good foundation being laid for the business revival when it starts.
—“Free trade as it is in England” does not command the approval of the Liberals of British Columbia. The Victoria Times, a leading Liberal organ of the province, Says $
“Tt will pay the farmers of the whole of British Columbia to take a wide view of the fiscal question. A fear prevails among @ portion of them that if the Liberals get into power all the duties on farm products will Gs at once removed and the local mar- kets will be thrown open to the ‘cheap products of Washington.’ There is noth- ing in the Liberal platform to warrant the conclusion.”
What abeut the promises of the Liberal leaders to remove from the tariff every “vestige of protection ?”
—Montreal Witness : If the Government comes to terms with the Newfoundland delegates who are about to start for Ottawa, the preset parliament during the session just caliei will bave an opportunity of
ssing upon that question. There can be
ittie doubt that the Domininion Govern- ment will offer the Newfoundland Govern- ment fair and even generous terms, but such conditions as those telegraphed from Newfoundland are, of course, out of tie question. The instantly favorable effect upon Newfoundland’s credit of her union with Canada would of itself afford great financial reliefto the island. With the present outlook fora very good seal fishery this year, brighter prospects are opening

THE REPORTED RESIGNATION.
COMMENTING upon Sir Charles Hibbert Tupper’s reported resignation the St. John Sun says:

It might be sug- gested that having passed the remedial order the government ought to have ap pealed to the nation on that issue. A principle is involved in this suggestion.

Sup- pose the Government should win on the Manitoba issue, would that show that its general policy was supported by the people? Suppose it should lose? What could be morein consequential than that ? We should have a Laurier Government and the abolition of protection, because the people of Canada do not want Roman Catholic schools restored in Manitoba. The chief issue before the people of Canada in the next election should be the tariff issue. On the school“question there is no material difference between the present ministry and the one which would be formed if the gov

MARTIN'S PLATFORM,
MR,
Mr. Joseph Martin, M. P., is credited with the authorship of the following, which has been freely circulated around Portage la Prairie :

“I¢ she is to prosper, increase in popula- tion, and give work to the Hudson’s Bay

railway, Manitoba must have free trade with all the world.
“Canadian electors haye never hada chance to vote for free trade and direct taxation.
“The Conservative policy is protection. We have no use for that; although till now it has raised sufficient revenue and kept up the public credit of Canada.
“Tariff for revenue tinkering, with more free goods, would not give enough revenue, but it would unsettle business and do harm. It might take the duty off your hat and put it on your boots, but ‘you can bet your socks’ it won’t pay off one custom house officer !
“The Liberals and Patrons have promis- ed you that policy—A light tax on proper- ty valuations, revenues of incorporated companies, and on incomes over one thousand dollars, with the present inland revenue, would give free trade and plenty of money to pay for it.
“Are you afraid of that? At any rate it is plain and above board. You will know then what you are paying to support the Government, aod save money. . “Nearly half a century ago, the Liberal association of Quebec had ‘free trade with all the world’ as part of their policy. Are we nearer free trade now jthan they were then? No! for on the 12th of April, 1894, the Liberal leader said, in the House’ of, Commons: “The policy of the Liberal party is not free trade as it is in England, that is the ideal, that is the goal. We will, however, haye for a great mauy years to go on still collecting our revenue by customs luties !”
“This empty ideal, this hope of an im-
aginary goal, has been the fond dream of hundreds of thousands of politically guiled Canadians, who are now reposing in their silent graves, having never even been allow- ed like Moses, to ascend the mountain and see the promised land; and now the ‘silver tongued’ orator has assurance enough to tell the present generation of electors, that they shall not go over Jordan, but must fal! down and worship his beautiful ideal of free trade, and keep on their knees in the wilderness, with the custom house whip lashing their backs, until they die! “Electors of Macdonald! Demand a straight independent free trade candidate to advocate free trade with all the world for Canada, and direct taxation ! “If you elect one, your action will be handed down in history! You will be fam- ous! And you will show the world that your maiden constituency is not satisfied with old playen-cut catch vote jargon, that will never do her any good.

Mr. Gladstone was vociferously cheered by the London crowd on his return from the continent. He is expected to greaily help the Government in settling the Speakership difficulty. Some almost think he may settle the Premiership diffi- culty also by taking it himself. He did this once before after he had retired from the worries of public life, and ine is still capable in several ways of doing as pecu- liar a thing.
While the British squadron was recently weighing anchor in the harbor of Wei Hai Wei during a fierce gale a heavy sea swept over the forecastle of the flagship Centur- ion, drowning a seaman named Edwards. During the confusion which followed the Alacrity came into collision with the Cen- turion and seriously damaged her bow
plates. Both ships drifted dangerously near the lee shore, but managed to get clear and steam out to sea.
Princess Beatrice, who is now the
Queen’s constant companion, has of late been always present during her interviews with the ministers, and is recognived in official circles as practically the wielder of all the royal prerogatives. It is well under atood that the Queen has willed to this favored daughter the bulk of her savings, believed to be £1,500,000 ($7,500,000), to- gether with Osborne and Balmoral, both residences being the private property of the toyal mother. :
Prince Bismarck is undoubtedly a liv- ing force in politics when the question of a compliment to him on his birthday throws the Reichstag into confusion, causes the President and Vice-President to resign, and becomes the all-abso:bing question of the hour for the whole nation. Bismarck once more has the Emperor at his back and the Reichstag against him. In opposing the congratulatory message, his enemies have played into his hands. They have brought him inte greater pro- minence than ever, and no doubt the sly old politician is laughing in his sleeve at his supposed discomfiture.
The New York Tribune’s special Lon- don cable says: Rumors of dissolution it- crease. The news telegraphed to the Tri- bune last week respecting Lord Rosebery’s illness and its possible consequences to Parliament has now found its way into the London papers,and the Government and the ministerial organs are expectant of an early break-up to the Cabinet. If the removal to Walmer Castle does not benefit the Premier he may try a short sea voyage, but in the present critical con- lition ofthe Ministry his absence from the helm of state cannot be long endured. In addition to the Cabinet’s anxiety over the Veto bill, the recalcitrant Liberal brewers and the Irish Nationalists, fresh troubles are developing over the speaker- ship.
Harold Frederick cables from London tothe New York Times: The return of Mr. Gladstone would have been the occa- sion of a great popular demonstration this afternoon, but, unhappily, the dense fog in the channel delayed his steamer, and he did not arrive till dusk. Despite the hour and the gathering rain, a huge crowd as sembled in the station and out on the Strand, and volleys of hearty cheering were raised as the carriage finally emerged. Mr. Gladstone himself seemed physically vigorous, and walked scross the platform to the cab with erect bearing and firm step. The profile is a good deal sunken, but to look him in the eye he is alert and strong-faced as ever. Indeed, all who were in the small reception party on the platform commented to one another after he had gone how singularly the tense, eager expression of his countenance re- called the old days when he came to the House intent on’ a great task, and wore Just such a look. The fact that he hur- ried his return forward by several days and made the whole journey without a stop, although the latter is his habit, has — great stimulus to speculation about iis

QUEEN AND PREMIER.
It is again rumored that the Queen is in ill health. Mrs. Crawford writes to London Truth to say that on arrival at the railway station at Nice, the Queen “seemed unable to raise her head. She looked up and around under her eyelids, as if wanting strength to look otherwise.” One might have thought she did not feel her feet under her, as with the assistance of her servants she tried to descend the sloping gangway from the train into the station. It is well known among those faniliar with court affairs that rheumatism of the knees has lately not ouly developed complete loss of power over both legs, but has extended to the back and arms, and that a fata! issue is to be feared at almost any time. The reports of the Queen’s con- dition seriously affect the parliamentary situation With the death of a sovereign Parliament is immediately dissolved. This contingeney ia undoubtedly an important factor in all the present calculations, The political atmosphere, in fact, is charged with sensational possibilities.” It is to be hoped that this picture of an aged and be- | But
loved sovereign is largely overdrawn.
taken in connection with the report concerning the Premier, it cannot be denied that the political situatice
in Great Britain is decidedly unsettled. Itis stated that Lord Rosebery is in al- most complete retirement in the country, and the premiership practically is out of commission. His physicians give only the guarded opinion that he may soon recover. The World learns from friends of Earl Spencer, First Lord of the Admiralty, who visited him yesterday at Epsom, that Lord R sebery still is able to
correspon lent
get only a few hours sleep out of the twenty four, and that enly in the afternoon. Those who saw him at the
brief cabinet meeting the other day say his hair has turned quite white within the past month in consequence of his intense suffering and continued insomnia. Of course, this situation cannot last, and un- less soine relief is ep edily found he will certainly resign at no distant day. There has not been an hour in the past three weeks when he would not have done so except for the opposition of his friends. Should the Conservatives come into power at the general election, necessitated by such resignation,they probably would have a short tenure—unless they could repeat their success—fer the Queen’s death is considered inevitable within a year or two at most.” —— EE ——————EE———
