THE BY-ELECTIONS YESTERDAY- N
Eight by-elections for the Commons
were called ofi’ yesterday in tour dlderent
Provinces. In two Ontario and four
Quebec constituencies there was no
change of political complexion in any
one, and while the Liberal majorities
were lu'some instances reducedin Quebec,
and in one case slightly increased, the
result would not indicate any consider-
able ohangefof public sentiment either
for or against the Government in those
Provinces.
In St. John there was a complete over-
turn, and a1Liberal majority ofil?7 at the
generalfclection wad turned into a Con-
servative majorlty of 285. St. iiohn is a
placeof high and low tides both in the
harbor and on land. Mr. Biair's treat in-
fluence and his strong opposition to the
Grand Trunk Bill, together with minor
heal causes produced the change.
Bere, as almost even one expected, Mr.
Haszard was returned by a good mvjoriiy-
If it was less than in some previous elec-
tions It is nearlv equal to that of Sir Louis
Davies in 1896. Mr. Hansard has provod ll
strong candidate and polled the full
strength of his party, although Mr. Mo- 1
Lean made a plncky Dgbt. We doubt
not that Mr. Haemard will give a good
accouot. of himself at Ot'awa.

WHERE THE BY-ELECTIONS WERE
HELD YESTERDAY.
The seven byeleetions for the Com-
mons held yesterday were quita widely
distributed. Two of them are lu western
Ontario. East Lambton bordering on Lake
Huron, is a rural riding with no large
towns. It is lntersected by the Grand
Trunk and Canada a Southern Railways.
its southwestern part includes part of the
cll region and the villages of Petrolla,
Oil Springs and Oil City._
East Bruce is also a rural constituency
situated oonsiderably farther north than
East Lambton, and is separated from
Lake Huron _by West Bruce. The Wel-
lington, Greyand Bruce Railway divides
it nearly in the middle and the Georgian
Bay and Lake Erie Railway runs slung
its eastern border.
Hocheiaga and St. James are divisions
of the City of Montreal, the former being
a suburbaa district containing West-
\l1°\ll\¢» St- Henry. St. Gunegonde and a
part of St. Gabriel Ward. It is intersect'
ed by the C. P. R. the Grand Trunk and
the Ll\<'h‘ne Canal. `
St. James Division, Montreal also fronts
on the harbor, It contains the Court
House. City Hall, Blonsecours Market
Viner Square, e C. P. R. passenger sta-
tion and haeboth the Grand Trunk and C.
P. R. trflcks extendzd along its Water
front. ` -
So Hyacinth is a rural constituency
situated eastward of Montreal and is
divided by the Grand Trunk Railway. Its
population is almost entirely French
speaking, and the two Montreal con-
stituencies are also largely so. i -
Moatmagny Ie a rural constituency
abutting on the south shore of the St.
Lawrence, below Quebec city. It is
wholly French.
S . John oily is too well known to need
any description. It is the largest city of
the Maritime Provinces, and the com-
mercial metropolis of New Brunswick. It
is the Atlantic terminus of the Canadian
Pacific Railway, one of the principal east-
ern termini ofthe Interoolonial Railway
and the principal Canadian winterport for
freight traffic.
The death of Senator Marcus, A.
Hanna of Ohio. which took place at
\’\’ashir-gton ou Monday evening last has
removed avery conspicuous and influen-
tial figure from American political and
business life. I-le was one of the many
American millionaires, and very actively
promoted thc election of the late Presi-
dent McKinley. Since l800,he has been
chairman of the Republican National
Committee. A few months ago he was
thought to not favor the renominatiou of
President Rooievelt. His death probably
secures the President the strength of the
Republican support. Senator Hanna was
born in Ohio in 1887.
You Can Keep
The Liver Active
-- A i
And Ensure the Regular and
Healthful Action of the Bowels
by Using Dr. Chase's Kidney
Liver Pills.
The lille is Natures cathartic. So long
as the liver filters the bile from the blood
and pa~-es it into the intestines, the bow-
els will be regular and active.
Constipation can never be permanently
cured until the liver is set right.
Because they act directly on the liver
as well as the bowels Dr. Chase°s Kidney
Liver Pills are wonderfully successful as
a cure for constipation and liver troubles.
They rid the system of accumulated poi-
sons, thoroughly cleanse the system and
iuvigoratc the organs of digestion and ex-
creiion.
No family medicine was ever so univ-
ersally used by the people of Canada, and
none so generally endorsed.
Constipation, biliousness, kidney dis-
ease, liver complaint, backache and stom»
ach troubles are among the ailments
which are promptly cured by this treat
ment.
Mrs. H. S. Mour, Montague Bridge, P.
E. I., writes:-“I have used Dr. Ohase’s
Liver Cure and five orsix boxes of his
Kidney-Liver Pills, and can say that this
is the only treatment that I ever got to do
me good. For eight or ten years I was
a terrible sufferer from biiiousness and
liver trouble, and though I went to a
doctor until I was tired and discouraged
he could not do me any good. I can
truthfully say that I believe Dr. Chaae‘s
Liver Cure has saved my life. I feaad
it alittle strong at ‘rat but was very
glad to get a cure."

CONTRABAND OF WAR
Russia’s notice tothe DoWEr§ that flour
stitutes contraband of war the London
Economist quotes from a decision of the
Supreme Court of the United States made
in 1866 substantially as follows:
It was held that merchandise might
be divided into three classes, the first to
consist of articles primarily and ordinar-
ily used for military purposes in time of
war; second articles which may be used
for either war or peace, according to cir-
cumstances; third, artzlcles exclusively
used for peaceful purposes. It was then
held that articles of the first class, des-
tined to a belligerent country or places
occupied by the army or navy of a bellig-
erent are always contraband. Merchan-
dlf-.e of the second class is contraband only
when actually destined for the military
or naval use of the belllgerenls. That.
ofthe third class is never contraband,
though it may he liable to seizure for a
violation of a blockade or siege.
In regard tn coal, Japan has mines of
her own, but both Russia and Japan have
made purchases of English steam coal,
some of which had not been delivered
1
when the war begun. Japan will, how-
ever, be wellsupplied from ber own coal
fields, as in 1902 she exported coal to the
value of $8,500,000. Russia although.
some ofl her ships burn oil fuel, will
probably require to supply her navy in
the far cast more coal than she can hope
It is concluded that coal and provisions
will both be had to be contraband and
liable to seizure while on the way to an
euemy's port. In the old times it was the
practice to confiscate both ships and cargo
when found to be carrying contraband
goods, but now only the goods arc taken
unless the owner of the goods is also
owner or part owner ofthe ship. In aay
case it will appear that the question of
ous and complicated oneas the war pro-
gx-easer.The question also gives additional
the sea, which Japan appears to have
secured for the present, at least.
