In a speech that the cable reports say
was brilliant, Lord Rosebery argued in
favor of the Home Rule bill. The re-
port says:
The arguments In which the phrases
about "capitulation" and rash and un
certain experiment" had been used by
opponents Of Home Rule were exactly the
sort that had been applied against every
great reform Of the present century
The same arguments had been used
against the Catholic Emancipation BILL
the FIRST Reform bill and the bill for the
repeal Of the Corn laws. Members Of
the opposition had said that the present
bill ought to be- carefully considered,
because it was legislation not for to day,
but for an uncertain tomorrow. Ii
could be said for the Upper House that
they were not even legislating for to-
morrow, but we're legislating for this
day six months Laughter.
II is interesting TO note that the Tories
in England are occupying the same rela.
tive position TO the Home Rule reforrs
that the Republicans In this country
occupy against tariff reform. The Re
publieAns are the legit innate political
heirs Of the Tories

A curious source Of supply for the ward

Is found in the shops of the dealers In fe-
male second hand clothing Owing to the
law that whenever any person dies without
a will all their personal possessions are to
be disposed q at auction and the proceeds
divided among their heirs, these dealers are
often enabled to buy very elegant and com

To THE aatonishment of everybody.
the managers of the Cudahy packing
house find that they have commenced to
slaughter hoga with the fact staring
them in the face that there will not be
enough stock available to work their
factory up to its possible capacity. The
whole country adjacent to this center
has been notified by poster and by the
press for more than six months that the
Oudahys would purchase all the hogs
offered at good rates. They give cents
per pound for porkers, which ia a splen-
did price, and yet the supply is not
oquai W ti.o uuii4nno. rno1O Iv-
gion in the United States where hogs
can be more easily raised than in this
section. We have, indeed, localities
that are unspproachably excellent for
the raising of hogs. Fifteen years ago
that was very considerable branch OF
farming here. With the fine induce
ments which the Cudahy packing house
offers, pork-rsieing should become an
industry here of very important and ex-
tensive interest.

1T aBAoHgs FARrasR THAN BRIGGS.

AS rule secular newspapers are slow
to discuss questions that are raised in
the churches. They prefer to leave such
controversies to the churches them
selves and their especial organs. But
the so-called Briggs heresy in the Pres
byterian church has excited such gen
eral interest and been go widely dis
Guessed by people of all denominations
that it becomes very proper and con-
spicuous exception to the rule.
We doubt whether any one who has
closely observed the progress of the con-
troversy can conscientiously claim that
Briggs has been judged by fair and
impartial tribunal. The assembly which
has just convicted him of heresy, brand
cd his writings as heterodox and de-
prived him of his place in the ministry
was largely made up of men who had
prejudged his case. This was shown in
many ways. Some OF the speeches that
went unchsllenged were personal in tone
and vindictive in spirit. Reason vainlv
appealed to the seated prejudices of the
men who showed from the start that
they were there not to fairly try the &C.
cused, but to place the seal Of condemna.
tion upon his head.
He was accused of questioning the
inerrancy of the bible, and his cele-
brsted Inaugural wac brought up in
evidence against him. DR.. Briggs, in
one of the most scholarly and searching
speeches ever made before an eccleeias
tical court, showed that with the ligh
OF the better knowledge scholars now
had about the autographs OF the bible
and the great advances that had beer
made in pathological criticism since thu
time the accepted King James version o
the scriptures was translated, inaccura
cies had been discovered in the tex
which acholars had the right to exposr
and discuss. Some OF these errors wer
important, and could not be ignore,
either by THE church or its teachers. l
looked, however, very much to an i'm
partial outsider as if it made no differ
ence how strong or unans werable tn
defense OF DR.. Briggs might be, it wa

case, the pope's snathema had gone ou
against five distinct citations in hi
books, and although as historical faC
the books did not contain the citation
specified, yet the apocryphsl heresie
had to be condemned-so with Briggs.
But the worst feature of this entir
procedure of the assembly is the fat
that it involves and includes violatio
of constitutional right which has been
fundamental safeguard to accused pc
