ENGLAND has various ways of pushing
trade with foreign countries. but all of
them are practical and effective. To some
she breaches free-trade; this is to those whom
she cannot control otherwise. Weaker pow
ers she treats more summarily. Finding that
ia ia, little King on the West African
coast, was diverting his trade to Germany,
her Consul at Opobo decoyed him into an
interview, surrounded him with squad of
marines, and sent him prisoner to one of
the West India Islands England is bust

THAT "sURPLUs.p


The figures obtained from the Clerks of
the Appropriation Committees, as we go to
press, so far to confirm the statements cur
rent in regard to the alleged surplus"
The regular annual appropriations for the
year foot up $288,764, 928.54. To this must
be added, first, the deficiency appropriations,
which foot up $18,227 683.69; second, mis-
cellaneous, sundry, civic, etc, 1886, 1O942,
and third, the permanent annual appropria-
tons, $115,640,7989O, making grand total
Of $428, 1863, 52O.55. The receipts for the year
are figured at $40, 1892, making the
surplus appear to be $12,294,21377. To
this should be added $5,50OOOO for
reductions in the Notifications bill, but a
large portion of this reduction will be Offset
by appropriations for public buildings that
do not figure in the above estimate.
This is a showing that deeply concerns
Mr.. Mills and his friends. The underpin-
ming is tumbling out from under them.
THE FoUR-AND-A-uALF PER CENTS.
In all this talk about the surplus little
if any attention seems to be given to the
fact that 1927, 100000 of A! per cent. bonds,
are due Sept. l, 1891, and must be paid.
What do our inanciers propose to do with
this vast sum of indebtedness?
If they intend to pay it they must begin
preparing for it now. They will have to ac-
cumulate money at the rate of $70000,OO0 a
year, in order to have enough on hand when
the bonds become due.
Certainly they must intend to pay them.
The people will not endure continuance
of debt at heavy interest, when the air
is full of clamors about the Nation having
more money than it knows what to do with
If payment is intended, preparation must be
begun at once, and there will be no surplus
to wrangle over.

THE Congressional investigation shows the
greatest corruption in the matter of natural
izations in New York. There was abundance
of evidence to show that anyone who de-
sired it could get full naturalization papers
in few hours by the payment of $40. The
worst feature about this was that many of
the men so naturalized do not pretend to
make their homes in this country, but only
took out their papers in order to get employ
ment on American vessels.

THE effect of a protective system in stimu-
lating the inventive spirit Of people has
been illustrated in Prussia. Before the
present protection policy was adopted the
number of patents annually issued in PTus-
STA was less than 100. After Germany be-
came a nation with well defined indus
trial policy, it Immediately jumped to 200,
and now it exceeds 1000.

100000, free of interest, to loan to the peo-

A Large Batch OF Bill Looking to its Va

WAsHINGTON, ID. c., February ia
Government telegraph and Government
regulation of the telegraph business of
the country has already come in for a
considerable share Of attention from
Congressman this session.
Five Senator'S and seven Representa-.
tives have introduced bills relating TO
these subjects Mr.. Edmunds was in
early in December with his old bill OF last
session, proposing the construction OF
four trunk lines 10 connect Washington
with the northeastern, northwestern,
southwestern, and southern parts OF the
United states by postal telegraph sys

Mr.. Dawes in the Senate, and Repre-
sentative Hayden of Massachusetts In
in the House, have introduced identical
bills by which it is proposed to establish
an extensive postal telegraph system
throughout the country. Mr.. Cullom in
the Senate, and Representative Anderson
in the House, have introduced similar
postal telegraph bills. Both propose the
construction of Government lines and
an extensive plant that will extend the
postal telegraph system TO all first, sec
ond, and third class postoitices. Mr.
Culom proposes to spend $4,000 and
Anderson $4,000 600 for the construction
of these lines. General Weaver of Iowa
wants S25 900 900, and Representative
Smith Of Wisconsin $4,000, 900
TO carry out their respective projects.
Mr. McComas of Maryland and Repre-

degrading to Him. They therefore say
that His image was, by some means,
stamped upon Judas, who was the one
crucifed in relealty. In this way they
discard the cross of Christ, because II is
distasteful TO them. and so it was with
the world. But the world needs that
cross, and it was amazing love in God
who decrecd this scheme OF salvation
through Christ, and in Jesus Himself
who was willing to be at the head OF
fallen race that he might yield up His life
for the welfare OF mankind.
The speaker then proceeded in elo-
auent language to portray Gods scheme
of sal. alton, preordained from the crca-
tion of the world, and long before Christ
was born He said that the teachings
and traditions OF the Church was that The
plan Ct redemption through Christ was
The cause of the fall Of the angels. God
foresaw, as if it had passed before his
mind in panorama, the fall OF man and
made known the plan Of again raising up
mankind through the man Jesus christ
The idea that so high an honor should
be bestowed upon man excited TIE
jealousy Of the angels who rebellcd, ana
were thrust from heaven. Then followed
the fall of man as God had fOrseen, ana
He in His infinite love carried out the
scheme of salvation which He had de-
cided on before the world was.
The preacher then urged upon his
hearers to try to appreciate that wonder
ful love aud do right, not from slayish
fear, but through the affection towards
God which that love should inspire lie
besought them to dwell on this subject
during all Of Lent, and at least during all
Of this week
At the conclusion of the lecture the
benediction of the blessed sacrament was
given and the congregation dismissed.
The topic for next Sunday night Will be
the sufferings and temptations OF Christ.
