THE Talk OF ANIMATION


If the PEOPLE of Nova Scotia really desire to
ioin the United States, it is not probable that
Great Britain could afford to interposc any
strenuous objection. The day has gone by for
coercion in such matters. and the will of the
people would doubtless prevail with any British
administration In one sense, the political con-
nection between Great Britain and the province
is to British trade an advantage. But a more
thriving and prosperous people on the same
territory, even though little more restrained
in their purchases of English goods. would i'll
the aggregate contribute moIe to England's
prosperity, Just as Massachusetts and New
York benefit Great Britain more than Canada
does. There is good ground for the belief that
Nova Scotia, if by the desire of her own people
united with the United States, would grow far
more rapidly in population and trade than it
has grown. It's mines would find open markets
for coal and iron, and abundant American CAPT.
tai to aid their development, and its fisheries
would thrive beyond all precedent. Though
such population might buy less from England
of certain kinds of goods than the people of the
province now buy under a Canadian protective
tariff, the growth of population and of all in
dustres would result In larger purchases in the
aggregate, and so it is not improbable that the
political separation might prove an advantage,
both to the people of Nova Scotia and to the
people of Great Britain.
The United States has 70 occasion to cast
longing eyes i'll that direction, although it
would be of much advantage to several Of the
States to enjoy rtirely unrestrained inter
course with the province. Cheaper fuel for
many manufacturing establishments in New
England would be benefit of increasing i'm
portance, as the competition which those manu-
features have to meet becomes more severe.
The half million people now in the province, if
united with this country, would dcy a
prosperous fishing business without the embar-
easements which are inevitable under any con-
ceivable treaty, as long as the interests of two
distinct Powers have to be considered and
guarded. Of course. it is obvious that these al
vantages would bring with them some disad-
vantages. TO American coal producers the
loss of any part, even though d small part, of
the market they now supply would be an ncon
ycnience. But the demand for coal Of all kinds
is growing so fast at the West aud South, and in
the Central States, that even a complete loss of
New England trade, we're that possible, would
be compensated in short time. So the fisher
men of our own coast would find unrestrained
competition with those of Nova Scotia in some
respects an embarrassment. Thus this country
has not been anxious, nor have the people
manifested an anxiety, for any change of politi-
cal relations with Nova Scotia.
If any movement for change is proposed, it
originates with the people Of the province

SIN SPOTS AND THE WEATHER.

Three tornadoes and several thunder-storms were
reported from Dakota and the adjacent region FIJI
day night, almost simultaneously with destructive
lightning and torrents of ram III Poictiers France
1t Is a coincidence of no account, perhaps that at
the same time three earthquakes were felt III the
latter district and q slight disturbance of terra
firma on the New-Jersey shore; although Proctor
SAWS that storms and earthquakes frequently come
together But there was another coincidence worth
mentioning in connection with the weather
phenomena lust mentioned. Within forty-elght
hours of their occurrence. and preceding them,
q sun spot came into view on the edge OF the
solar orb, by the revolution of that body and an
other and larger one broke out on the side of the
sun turned toward us. 1t may be added that the de-
structiye storm at Kansas City. the cloudbursts at
Xenia and st. Louis several tornadoes In Indiana
and Ohio the hurricane which moved down a
forest of oaks in the suburbs of Madrid Spain, an
other which devastated the vineyards of Mont
heller Franco, extraordinary gales III Germany
and the tornado which swept over Lonato Lom-
bardy between May IL aud II were also preceded
at an interval of from few hours to two days. by
the appearance OF large and particularly active
sun spots.
The notion that some relation exists between
sun spots and terrestrial disturbances. especially OF
the weather. is old one and has been pretty gen
orally dlScredtcd by ScleutIstS WHOSE opluons lho
civilized world Is bound to respect. Nevertheless,
during the last twelve fifteen years it has been DIS
cussed quite earnestly by men of repuatlon and emil
nence in astronomy and metcorology, and, though
a long way from being established, has certainly
gained somewhat in acceptance. The imperfect
manner in which observations of solar storms have
been conducted the undue haste Of enthusiasts In
interpreting the phenomena actually observed. the
apparent conf cts i'll the evidence actually secured
the intrlcacy and novelty of some of the problems
which it raises. and other circumstances have com
bined TO prevent final determination of the truth
or falsty of tho theory yet. But continued at
tenton to the possibility in question has led num-
Der of men, Independently of each other, to notice
striking condolences between solar and terrestrial
disturbances similar 10 those just mentioned.
Dozens of tornadOes. scores of thunder and
hail storms and several cloud bursts, for IN
stance have occurred in the United States and
Furope within the last three months inside of two
or three DAYS after the appearance of violent COM
motion in the SUMS gaseous envelope; and the
three greatest storms and cold waves of last win
fer in this country followed close upon similar solar
nhcnomena These few facts are quite Inadequate
