the long-tried and faithful press ofhis party.
The Extra Globe will be published weekly
for six months, commencing on Wednesday,
the 10th May, and ending on the 1911, Noyeln-

gress and the Appendix will contain all the
speeches on both sides Of important subjects, at
full length, as written out or revised, by the
