Rev. NJ. T. Gates, pastor of the Grace
M. f. Church, Jersey City, preached OF
Sunday week on the duty of Christians
politically and especially SO far as attcn-
dance upon the primaries is concerned.
The following extracts apply equally well
to this section as to Jersey City
'The vast majority of Christian people
stay away from the primaries, Sinking
their responsibility of helping set tho ma
chine in motion and selecting the grst to
be ground, and after tho grinding shout
themselves hoarse at the unprincipled ma
chine managers and curse the quality OF
the grist.
"The man that from a sense of man
fear, indifference or delicacy of the stu,
alton, deliberately neglects TO attend his
primary ought to be compelled by the law
to keep his mouth shut concerning either
the men elected to Office or the laws such
men help to make.
''Every notorious and unholy man elect
ed to Office 10 this city, or sent to legsla-
ture Is as much result Of the indifference
Of the Christian people as he is product
OF the worst element that elected him.
This is the profoundest kind OF philosophy
that challenges refutation. My logical
conclusion then is: Stay away from the
primaries, let dishonest aud unfit incum-
bents fill our offices, and then the balance
OF the year kick yourself and not your
law makers"

The Ha0lterlon Democrat of this
week has introduced its funny man into
Its editorial columns, 1t says:
"There are thousands of Republicans,
including many men conscientiously OPP
posed to horse racing, who have entirely
lost faith in their party organization and
candidates, and would gladly support an
independent ticket. They have no organ
ization or leadership, and are afforded
no means of asserting themselves except
by staying away from the polls or voting
the Democratic ticket"
AS the Democratic senator and the two
Democratic assemblymen from this county
voted for the race-track bill, and as the
entire vote, with the exception Of three,
that passed the race track bill was Demo
cratic, the joke looms up In all its pom
derosity.

LONDON, Feb. 15.- In the House OF
Lords yesterday Lord Salisb ury asked the
Right Hon. and Most Rev. Edward White
Benson, archbishop OF Canterbury and
primate Of all England, whether the tone
OF the government directed to the church
commission to deal with Welsh dioceses
was such as IL the suspensory bill was al
ready law.
The archbishop, in reply, read letters
showing that the assignment OF certain
funds of the diocese OF st. Asaph's had
been suspended.
Lord Salisbury thereupon made n furi-
Gus attack upon the government. He de-
clared that Mr.. Gladstone's administra-
tlon was guilty OF serious transgression
otthe constitution; The action taken in
regard TO the Irish church afforded no
precedent in this case. The robbery OF
the church OF Ireland had been followed
by the robbery OF landlords and the pro
posed mutilation OF the state. II was in
decent on the part Of the government to
attempt by private action TO anticipate a
decision OF the legislature.
Mr.. Gladstone, Lord Salisbury added.
was the first British prime minister since
the Restoration who had the reputation
of
Striking Down the Church OF England.
The present was turning point in Eng
lish history. The government aimed to
mutilate an institution that was older
than the dynasty or other institutions in
the country. Surely il was a matter OF
decency Tor the ministry to refrain from
trying TO obtain parliamentary approval
OF revolutionary policy by secret action,
through exercising its influence upon
the church commission, over which the
government had no authority. (Cries Of
hear, hear.)
Lord Ashborne, Conservative, denounced
the action OF the government as a gross
breach OF the constitution.

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-The Morning Ad-

Statement Of Canal Tolls for the Season OF
Navigation Of 1898.
OTTAWA, Ont, Feb. 15.-An extra OF the
Official Gazette says relative to canal tolls
for the season OF navigation OF 1898:
For the season OF 1898 the canal tolls for
passage OF the following food products, wheat,
Indian corn, peas, barley, rye, oats, haxseed
ana buckwheat, for passage eastward through
the Welland canal, will be ten cents per ton,
and for passage eastward through the 1t.
Lawrence canals only ten cents per ton; the
payment OF said toll OF ten cents per ton for
passage through the Welland canal TO entitle
these products 10 free passage through the
81. Lawrence canals"
The new arrangement IL apparently
more favorable to American than Cana
dian shippers. Last year all grain which
was not carried through TO Montreal had
TO pay twenty cents per ton. This dis
criminated against Ogdensburg, n. V,
the rebate OF tolls on shipments TO Mon
treal being eighteen cents per ton. In the
future, American grain not loaded at Og-
densburg will pay only ten cents per ton.
All grain going through TO Montreal will
pay the same rate.
