Preeautions Against small Pox.

AUGUSTA, Oct. 24.-Dr Young of the State
Board of Health who visited the inspection sta
tion at Moose River last week says that the large
number of French Canadians passing through that
place are inspected and vaccinated unless this has

to stop them and call the inspector. Thornton is
building as speedily as possible a fumigating sta

of the immigrants will be disinfected. Lumber
operators are also taking pretty strict measures
to prevent the appearance of small pox in their
camps. They will neither employ men who have
not been vaccinated nor allow such in the camp.

LONDON Oct. 24-It is now evident that the
parliamentary campaign will not pass off without
serious rioting in many quarters, as party feeling
which already runs high, daily grows more Ditter
The Marquis of Iorne, the Liberal candidate for
Hampstead, went down to Brentford, town
seven miles west of London, to deliver campaign
speech. While addressing the electors mob as

head The supporters of the Marquis rushed to
his rescue and a fight ensued. The noble lord now
became so thoroughly frightened that he hastily
departed from the scene, ran through the streets
in drenching rain to the railway station ana I'M
mediately departed for London. Meanwhile the
row continued the supporters OF the Marquis be-
ing severely handled, and becoming discouraged
at their desertion by their champion they nnaily
retreated, leaving their contestants masters OF
the field. The latter then seized the platform and
passed resolution condemning the policy CT the
Liberals
When the Queens son-in-law made his appear

occasioned considerable surprise and when ne put
forward in his address advanced radical opinions
the surprise was greatly increased. He adopted
Mr. Chamberlain's programme OF free education

that sales of large estates en- bloc should be sub

As to the House of Lords, he hardly went SO 1ar
as the Hampstead Radicals desired, being OF the
opinion that the venerable institution might be
amended by the infusion of elected members. He
favored the extension of local self-goyernment to
Ireland.
LONDON, Oct. 25.-The Economist commenting
upon the unstable equilibrium of the Liberal
party, says the Liberals will doubtless win IN the
coming elections, but that their victory will be
temporary and provisional, and will not outlast
Gladstone's political life. The Radicals, says the
Economist, are mistaken in assuming too confi-

The Balkan pIfficuIty.

LONDON, Oct. 24.-It is tonight stated unequiyo-
cally that the representative of England to the
Balkan conference in Constantinople has been in
structed by his government to make motion in
the conference in favor of maintaining the union
of Bulgaria and Roumelia effected under Prince
Alexander and it is further declared that the rep
resentatives of France and Italy have also been
instructed by their governments to support En-
glands motion. If this motion be made the con-
ference will be divided, Germany, Austria and
Russia arrayed against England France and
ITALY, 1t Is not worth while to conjecture how
Turkey the power chiefly concerned, will stand.
Her attitude will probably be decided by force,
but it is strongly suspected England possesses
such relations with the Porte as to compel it
eventually to side against Russia, and that II ac-
accomplished the difficulty would seem to be
settled.
