THE COMING CONFERENCE

ssux are several reasone why it is im- qanant that the Conference of the Liberal-

Rasecruative Party, to be held cn Tuesday |

emort, the 25th, inst., should be taken part mer leading men throughout this wmrevence.

Se she first place the interests of the <omratry, as well as of the party, will be pane coed by a strong, well organized op- mmentiion, raady to “take occasion by the \waadl” {aod to criticize the qwosernment with vigor and effect Swhen the opportucity to do 80 eway occur, Tothis end there must be <sousaltation; and the conference will af-

Seni means for consultation. A common ~wdderttndit g ought to be arrived at, #0 ‘wea’ when Ahe time for action comes, ali

mey.aacl etagether, successfully, for the

(éenmmon oot.

€ache second place, the present is an

wmeimently fitting time to prepare for

ection. It iss quiet time—a time when eiee whole field may be carefully and

.mugrarsionately surveyed, and when note uevy .be taken of the drift std eaueacy of enonts While Gee@ goveroment has been wonderfully Sectunate in respect to matters over which (leer have no control. whatever —such as thse wevival of trade in the States and CHrexghout the world,the discovery of egelé aod other precious metals in Ross» Gané end Klondike, and other places, the ettwe da the price of wheat, ete—and while “ise geod fortune. has blinded many (meragae’to the foolishness, weakness and zerraption of their administration, it ie moverthless a fact that there is throughout ‘me country a strong feeling of nneasiness ome@d dissativfaction which must come to a Naead ere long.‘ The disgraceful revela- woes im Quebec chow tbat the governing marty itese!f is not happy, and that the veel of Liberal disintegration has already wpcouted. It is in accord with the eternal fEtoess of things that a party of spoilemen onli quarrel abont the division of the sels: and it is eminently fitting that the cogewda of office which brought the follow- cect Cir-Wilfrid Laurier together should ~Osause & division among them,as of a house

Livided avaiust iteelf.

“Sut there are other larger and more im-

@ stant matters about which the thought-

‘men of the country are quietly inter-

eskeg themselWves,—to the coniusion of the

“@erernment inthe near future. The ig~

Let us hope ‘wat (he Liberal Conservative party of thie WP eovince—as throughout the vast extent et ‘Oanala—will be prepared for the wheom wieu it breaks. The course of w<xion shou'd be jla'd down and under- wiood; the party should be thoroughly «omgautzed; our young meo—the hope of then fubure—should be encouraged to come «en.tund tdke an active part in the mou'td- fryg of events fraught with imporiance to

An insolvency bill will probably be submitted to Parliament this year. Tne Montreal Board of Trace has asked that the following features be embodied in it:

1. Complete doing away with pre- ferences. 4

2. Equitable distribution of assets of insolvent debtors,

3. Reasonable discharge clause.

4. No class of official assigoees,

The gun is five feet longer and six tons heavier than the gun exhibited by Krupp, of Germany, at the Columbian Exposition, hitherto considered the heaviest piece cf ordnance ever manufactured. The Amer- icao gun is to weigh 126 tons and be torty~ nine feet in length,

—The Ottawa correspondent of the Mont- real Star reports (January 19h) that

“Premier Warburton, of Prince Edward Island, was heard before a committee of the Cabinet this

morning in support of his claims on behalf of bis Government, The committee whick met in the Premier’s room, was compo?ed of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, Sir Louie Davies, Sir Richard Cartwright, Hon. A. G. Blair, Hon. David Mills, Hon. J. I. Tarte.”

—The Halifax Herald reports that a great run of fish was secured oft Halifax Harbor last Thursday morning, and one of the biggest catches ever made by Halifax fishermen was brought tothe city. Over 200,000 pounds, mostly cod and haddock, were captured by the schooners Emerald, Flora and other crafts. All of the fish were marketed in the city. Fish dealers state that herring are much ecarcer than reported, and prices are ruling high in Bonne Bay. A vesse] which recently went down for a cargo returned with only 50,000 herring, which was not more than one-eight of a tull cargo.

—The Ottawa Citizen recalls the follow- ing pledge made at a public meeting in Quebec, during tne general election cam-~ paign of 1896, by Sir Wilfrid Laurier relative to the Manitoba Schcol question :

“And then, fioally, if conciliation does not succeed, I shall have to exercise the constitutional powers furnished by the law, powers which F shali employ in their Tul iness avd entirety.”

Now that His Holiness his spoken and declared the settlement “ insuflicent ” perbaps Sir Wilfrid will try further “con- ciliation” in Manitoba, and if that does not succeed perform his promise. We shal! see.

Centuries ago, people used to fear what they called the plague. “Black death” was the most terrible thing in the world to them. They feared it as people now fear the Cholera and Yellow Fever. And vet there is a thing that causes more misery and more deaths than any ofthese. It is ‘secommon that nine-tenths of all the sickness in the world is traceable to it. It isamerely that simple, common thing, constipation. It makes people listless, causes dizziness, headaches, lose of apne- tte loss of sleep, foul breath, and distress eiter eating. The little belp needful is jurnisbed by Dr. Pierce's pleasant Pellets. Une piil is a gentle laxative and two mild cathartic. Unce used, always in favcr. If you are careless enough to let un un- scrupulous druggist sell you something on which be makes more money, tt is your own fault if youdo not get well. Be sure and get Dr. Pierce’s leasant Pellets.

| SITUATION IN. CHINA.

— ee

Soothing Effect of British Policy.

German Fress More Reasonable.

—— an

The Chinese question is now settling into the misty background, says the Lon do’, correspondent of the ‘Tribune.

Mr. Balfour’s Manchester speech with oncilliatory couments aud proclaimed che readiness of the Berlin government to convert Kiao-Chau into a free port, open to the commerce of the world. If Russia adopts an equally liberal policy in regard to Port Arthur, neither England nor the United States will have cause to complsin of recent Chinese concessions to Euro- pean powers. The German press seems as anxious as the Chinese government itselfto have England guarantee a loan, and this isan indication that the other European powers do not want to leave the strongest maritime nation cut of the new conce’D, The British govetninent will waturally require some security fof giiaranteeing the loan, acd this will involve the occupa- tion of Chusan or some other point on the Chinese coast. Knog- land in this way would be drawn into the concert, and possibly rendered as helpless in the far east as she has recently been in Constantinople. It is difficult to reconcile Mr. Balfour’s explicit statement that England’s interests in China are not territorial, but commercial and trading, with the ramours that the ministry are seriously considering the expedient of lending 16,000,000 pounds, for the only adequate security would be territory. Moreover if the goverament once begins to lend money to Chinese mandarins, it will never know when or where to stop. Cabling to the Times on the same sub~ ject, Mr. Harold Frederic says: It was noted in my despatches Jast week that Englsni’s announcement that her far eastern policy of no bragand no ecurtail- ment of the world’s rights in free commerce in China bad excited a wonderful sooth- ing effect on what had tireatenedto be a grave crisis. A calmiog process has been going on through the week, until now there is no crivis left at all. German peers, even thoee of the most confirmed Angiophobe habit have executed, aprar- entlo under the stress of a hint from high quarters,a complete voltface. A fortnight agothey had not had words enough to curse England with. Tod y they are filled with the sweetest aspir- ations for a better understanding between

the Germans and the Exglish* ‘Phey fete dream of an Anglo-German treaty

of eternal friendship, and babble as inno- cently as if they dreamed that Erglish - wen did got quite understand this sudden melting of the German heart. Although the English certainly are making no } reciprc cal demons’ rations, they are p!eased enough tosee this special sloud cleared from their horizovo. Tiere were, in truth, too many clouds fer sirait steeriug.

WHAT IS A CHRISTIAN?

“Tan MacLaren” Defines Him as One Who Has Aitained to His Height in Christ,

“Christ did not come to cramp any one’s :wanhood; He came to broaden it,” writes the Pev. John Watson, D. D. (‘‘Ian Maclaren”), on ‘* A Young Man’s Religious Life,” in the January Ladies’ Home Journal. ** He did nor come to destroy our manhood; [le came to ful- fill it. Athcroughgoing Christian is a man with a stronger reason, kinder heart, firmer will, and richer imagination than his fellows,—one who has attained to his height in Christ. A bigot, or a prig, of a weakling is a_half- developed Christian, one not yet arrived at full age.

“What ought achristian to read? Every book which feeds tne intellect. Where ought he to | go? Every place where the moral atmosphere is pure aud bracing. What ought he todo? Every- thing that wil make character. Religion is not negative, a giving up this or that, but positive, a getting anda possessing. Ifa man will be c mtent with nothing but the best thought, best work, best friends, best environment, he need not trouble about avoiding the worst. The zood drives out the bad. There are two ways of lighting a dark room: one is to attack the darkness with candles; the other is to open the shutters and let in the light. When light comes, darkness goes. There are two ways of forming character; one is to conquer our sins, the other is to cultivate the Oppusite virtues.

The latter plan is best because it is surest— the virtue replaces the sin.

‘*Christianity isnot a drill: it is life, full, free, radiant and rejoicing, What a young man should do is not to vex himself about his imper- fections, but to fix his mind on the bright image of Perfection; net to weary his soul with rules, but to live with Christ as one liveth with a friend. There is ome way to complete mar- hood, and that is fellowship with Jesus Christ.”

The Civil Service Act authorises the Government to give increases of $50 a year io civil servants, and it was the po} ey ot the late Administration to carry this out whenever merited, Since the present Goverament took office the increase has been withheld generally, bat mumerous exceptions have been made to this rule for political friends. The result is that today merit coun's for nothing, and civil ser- vaots can get increases only’ by pu'ling wires, So great has the evil become that a circular was issued a day or two ago against wire-pulling, but it can be of little effect so loig as the Administration gives sta’otory increases ouly to those who can

bring the greatest pressure to bear upon it. eae
