New Prowse Block on saturday Jlllvlfy goth, |904 at eight o'c1ock p. m. 1,-is 4 gd, ny order of Directors. (St. John Sun.) Hon. Gso. E. Foster arrived in the city Saturdayfou the noon train and wus the guest of W. H.'l‘hornc until this morning, when he *leaves for Halifax, where h'e will deliver an address tonight on Chamber- lsin`s preferential trade policy. To a Sun reporter Saturday Mr. Foster expressed himself ss being' well pleased with his recent trip to the old country. His meetings there were arranged by the Tariff’ Reform League executive, which is Hon. Mr. Chamberlain‘s working engine in the present campaign and has its bend- quariers in London. hir. Foster was asked to spends few months in the old country to give the Canadian view so far as he possibly could of the question of im- perial preference and spent in all about six weeks in the old country. His meetf ings extended from Wales and the south of England toEdinburgh and Dundee in Scotland, and they gave him an opportun- ity of seeing and addressing all classes of the people. Altogether he addressed ab- out 00,000 people inthe four weeks he was actively at work. He found the door wide open to a Canadian with a most sympath- etic and interested hearing. The people seemed to be anxious to know the view of Canada and her wishes in the matter. Ile considered the audiences as lively and enthusiastic as any hs ever addressed. There are differences cf opinion ci course, but in the meetings addressed the great majority were in sympathy with the idea of closer trade relations between Brl*aln and her colonies. Probably the most lnterestingmeetlngs, said Mr. Foster, were those in which the workingmcn formed the overwhelming majority. They were quick to take the points of an argument and to respond quickly to the idea of closer union and consolidation of the empire. Whatever may be said of the imagination of the English, continued Mr. Foster, they have an imagination and it can be readily touched in respect of empire and wide British sway. Be had not, expected to find the sentiment sc favorable and the current so strong, hearing in mind the deep-seated natureof Britain's economic policy and the short time the campaign had been going on. It was not too much to say that the fiscal question was the topic in all circles and at pretty nearly all seasons. Authority counts for much in Great Britain and with a great leader like Hon. Mr. Chamberlain boldly leading the forces of change, public attention is caught and thousands who before had fslt the necessity of a change but said little. were now openly voicing their opinion|.The stress of outside competition with all the industries of Great Britain gives point to the discussion and weight to the question as to how Great Britain may fairly meet it. The British individual trying to match himself against the foreign in- dividual flanked and huttressed by his nation, appeals to the English sense of fairness as not being an equal contest. The British laborer sees the foreign manufactured products dumped into his market while he goes without steady work and the sense of the unfairness of the conditions is growing on him. These together are powerful adj uncts in aiding Mr. Chamberlain. Immense progress has been made, but of course forty millions of people are hard to reach in n short time, and fifty years of almost unchallenged supremacy glvrs free trade a tremendous advantage. ' Will Mr. Chamberlain win this time? It would be almost a miracle, replied Hililtiillhlii i. iiiSTiH'S il|iHi , Ill Hill. JUSEPH l]HlN|BiHil|N. The Distinguished Canadian Talks in an interesting Vein of His Trip to the Old Country. He Has Great Faith . in the English Statesman. Mr. Foster, if hc won at thc dist elector- ate battle, even though the battle could be fought on that issue alone. But there are other and 'very conflicting issues which come to thcfront in the byelsctions and will come to the front in the tirsl. general election. Army reform, liquor legislation, the Irish question, and more than all the educational act will all play a part and prevent a decision on the ilsoal question on its merits. But that he will win or his cause will be victorious within a very few years is, I believe, continued Mr Foster, a fair assertion to make. Nothing is being left un lone. Mr. Chamberlain is an old campaigner and apractlced organi- zsd,and he has trained and skilled lieuten- anis. Probably no more systematic and well organized canvass was ever put up in Great Britain than he is putting up at the present tlmc. Wherever there is a point on which an appeal can bo stuck you will find it there to be read by every passer. In the newspapers, the magazines music halls, on the attraction counters, and of course in literature, speakers and the right kind of s personal canvass. No stronger point has been made, re- A Conversation With e Climax. When a Professional Man Talks, It’s to the Point. Several famous American physicians and surgeons were recentlydinlng togeth- er after a session of u national meeting held in New York. “I had a remarkable case this winter," remarked a surgeon present whose name as a specialist in rectal diseases is world wide. “My patient was a woman, a deli- cate, nerve racked creature, who had suff- ered so fearfully from ths ravages of hem~ orrhoirls, that the knife seemed the only solution of the trouble, and yet her heart was weak and her strength so wasted by this fearful disease, that we dared not operate. ' “I had ceased my visits to her for a time and had given up all hope, when one morning she entered my odicc looking like a new women; the pallor had dis- appeared and the lines of suffering were nearly eradicated from her face. She told me she had bought at a drugstore for iifty cents a proprietary medicine in supposit- ory form called Pyramid Pile Cure, and had obtained instant relief from the first insertion. I made an examination and found the rectum in excellent condition, the inflammation entirely disappeared and the swollen veins in normal condi- tion. “I was so interested in the case that I had the remedy analyzed carefully and was so pleased with the result of the anal- ysis, dndinga combination of the most healing and scientific remedies present in the Pyramid Pile Cure and in e. more con- venient form than I could secure them otherwise, that I wrote to the Pyramid Drug Company at Marshall, Mich._ asking for their booklet on Piles. their Nature, Cause and Cure (which by the way is sent frce,) and have since used their Pile Cure extensively and with best results in my practice. I do not hesitate to recommend it to you all. It will often save your patient from a painful surgical operation which in many cases results fatally." marked Mr. Foster, than the calling ‘together of -representative business men from every great lndustry in Britain and have them» make a strong and systematic analysis ofthe trtde and tariff conditions. ` They are nota Iii'-»,fr'»» csiinnisiien, tint venture io say,- said Mr. Fosii.-r, tint; no together, and the result. cftneir wort; Mr. C.“ian\berl.i.iu, continued the s.\-tin- anoe minister, is a very heavily worked man, not the smallest- item being the im mensc corrospfimlcncs, to which he gives personal supirvl-ton, for his opinion cout- uiittec tu, winning is circulat-eil every- where anti must nic 's be carefully ck- prcssctl.

The announcement that Dr. W. S. Rainsford is to write a life story has call- ed up memories ofthe early days of his work in [connection with historic St. George‘s Church. Our enthusiast, who is something of an antiquarian as regards the city’s history, hasjust called atten- tion to the first Sh George’s Church when it was in the lower part of the city. It stood in1811 in Beckman Street., close by Cliff, a district new giving up entirely to business purposes, but the energetic searoher has found the site and found,too, that a building there still bears the name of St Georges building to recall the church of old. Ono interesting memory that clings to the earlier St. Georges is the fact that Washington Irving was baptised there, he having been born close by on Golden Hill. Dr. Raiusford will toll of the later history of the church ln his book, which _ will bear the title of "A Preacher's story of Ilia Work," and will be published shortly by the Outlook Cam- pany.
