Lord Salisbury delivered to the members
OF the Omitted club, assembled al their AN
nual banquet at 81. James Hail on july 10,
"A speech Of great interest ANA Importance,
In its course he dealt with most, II not ali, OF
those political topics which can by any
stretch of language De described as burning,
from Home Rule, The labour question, and
the rights OF property, to the date OF the
next general election. The Prime Minister
Processes TO have 40 more knowledge Of
when the appeal 10 the county Will be made
than The ypIieSt outsider all that he would
venture upon was the sale assertion that by
the Stptcnnial Act the present Parliament
comes 70 an end In the sumner OF 1893. 1t
on TINS particular point, however, tho Pre-
mier preserved a cautious silence, Oh other
questions If the day hrW as SIngularIy frank
and outsp0ken. The United Club, which he
was addressing, is a body OF Conservatives,
II Ost OF them young men, which exists Tor
the purpose ct lmpiantlng III The minds OF
the elector- he V~eritieS of the Tory faith.
Like the Eighty Club on the GIadStonlaE
side, the function OF the United Club, as of
the old Constitutional Union, which it has
Superseded, is Of II distinctly missionary
character. The flower and force of the
Constitutional party are banded together
in it's ranks TO do battle on behalf OF the
institutions of the country. In such an
assembly Lord Salisbury no doubt telt per-
fpctly at home and he did his best to incite
his hearers to Still further efforts to dissent
nate Constitutional principles in the electo-
rate. The power of speech, he tod his
audience. is, whether VT like it or not, the
prevailing force of our era. What will
happen at the next election Lord Salisbury
does not venture to predict, but he is conf
dent that every indication points to II
growth in the country ofthe Imperial idea.
and a dimlnutiOn of the sentiment in favour
of Home Rule. Passing on to the Church,
the Prime Minister declared that they must
defend the Established Churches of The
country. The agitation was now aimed at
the Churches in Wales and Scotland, amt the
attack on the Church of England was more
remote than it was five years ago. The
one-man-one-vote prOpOsdlWas most unfair,
because it would interfere with the OLDEST
franchise in the country, while nothing was
said about Ireland, Wales, and the North
of Scotland being vastly Over-repIesented
and the metropolis of the Empire lett with
far fewer members than it was entitled to.

NO LOVE FOR A NEW LAW

On the Part of the County Commissioners
They Think They Have Enough Work
to Do at Present-what l. Now Asked
of Them.
There is one act that was passed at the
last session of the Legislature that isn't
likely to go into effect, if some people know
themselves, and they think they do. The
act recites that hereafter, when any State,
county and poor taxes are placed in the
hands of collector for collection, in ac-
cordance with any existing law of this Com
mOnwealth, the amount shall be credited
to the treasurer of the county, If previously
charged to him and charged to the collector;
and such collectors shall give bond TO the
county, with SuretieS to be approved by the
Commissioners of the county, and in such
amount as they may designate. Collectors
are to be appointed or elected in the man.
ner now provided by law in each
county, and shall make monthly
returns to the Commissioners of the amounts
collected, and at the same time pay to the
treasurer the amounts shown by the re-
turns to have been collected.
The heat generated in the Commissioners
office when the above law was made known
united. Mr.. Mercer, however, states that
the theory will not win, as the act regulat-
ing ing the matter, that Of 1851, is special one.
added, not even by implication.
1t Is said that the arrangement proposed
by the act of 1891 would save some person in
the County Treasurer's office a large amount
of work, but the Commissioners are neither
thfrsting for glory nor do they want any
more work and responsibility thrust upon
them.
The indications at present are that there
may be a considerable amount of friction be-
tween the offices before the matter Is accom-
modated. 1t seems 1t is no small matter to get
settlements out of some delinquent collect
ors, and the Commissioners evidently think
their work sufficient at present.
