NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN THE RELATIONS BE-
TWEEN FRANCE AND ENGLAND BELIEVED
TO RE THE OCCASION FOR
SPECIAL CABINET COUNCIL.
London Oct. "A special Cabinet Council has
been called for Thursday next. and the members
of the Ministry who absent from the city
have been hurriedly summoned TO return. Tele-
grams have been sent to Sir William Vernon
Harcourt. who started yesterday for Italy, and
10 other Ministers who are in the country.
Sudden new developments regarding the rela-
tons between Great Britain and France are
without doubt the reason for the hasty summon
ing on the Ministers
The Daily News in an editorial referring to
the special meeting Of the British Cabinet called
for Thursday says:
Rumor is always wrong when ii deals with the
causes OF Cabinet meetings. Wise men DO not heed
such rumors. The only reasonable assumption at
present Is that the Anglo-Frcnch negotiations re-
quire the attention OF the Cabinet
The News discusses EngarGs general re-
lations with France, and expresses the belief tha'
France is as much inclined to fair dealing ana a
friendly arrangement as England is.
The Standard" says that nobody. whose op!n-
ion has any value. believes for a moment that
any question has arisen which could not be
amicably arranged by a patient and temperate
discussion II regrets the extreme tone adopted
in the last few weeks by certain Paris news
papers. hut recognizes The fact chat the most IN
fluential papers take a moderate and sensible
view.
The Daily Chronicle" alludes to the occasion
for surnrnoning the Cabinet as a grave and serl-
Gus matter. II depores the fact that the condi-
ton of both the civilized and uncivilizcd world
gives Only too abundant cause for disQuiet. After
discussing the various questions pending be-
tween England and France. The Chronicle" eX-
presses the opinion that Egypt will be the test
question. and advocates a European conference,
with the object Of completely neutralizing
Egypt.
The Daily Telegraph" regards the alarm
shown as absurd. The Nation. x says. has i'm
p,icit confidence in Lord Roseberys diplomacy.
II does not believe the French entertain one
half of the angry sentiments which the ex-
tremists print. II regards the imminence Of a
japanese coup in Pekng a far more serious
matter. and adds that should tho defeat Of the
Chinese be followed by revolution and mas
sacre of Europeans, there would arise an East
ern crisis. the result of which 1t .s impossible TO
forecast.
The Times makes comment on the Cab
met meeting.

Mr.. MicaWber'S Advice.

Mr.. Micawber is one of Dickens
most unique creations. Though he
made failure Of life himself, lie
seemed to recognize why he did not
succeed. His advice to David Copper
field is as good and as ncedful today
as it was when Dickens first wrote it..
"My other piece OF advice, Copper
field" said Mr. Wicawber, "you know.
Annual income twenty pounds, an
nual expenditure nineteen six; result
Happiness. Annual income twenty
pounds, annual expenditure twenty
pounds ought and six; result--misery.
The blossom is blighted, the leaf is
withered, the god of the day goes
down upon the dreary scene, and-and
in short, you are hoored, as I am"

The Democratic Nominees.

The ticket placed in the field by the
convention last Saturday. is essentially
weak in many particulars, easily noted
by the candid voted without especial
demons tration. The "ring" control
led the convention and dictated in
nearly every instance. With prob
ably one or two exceptions the ticket
will be very bitter pill for the best
element of the party to swallow, and
many have already repudiated it as
did Mr.. Burbank in open convention.
For the inspection of our readers the
ticket is here given.

We're to get one dollar for each log put

and paid for their supplies to the
amount of over $400, and when they

Frost d Kincaid for all that was due
them, and said the only bills they
owed was $21 to VIM. Wyatt, which |
agreed to pay and have paid. Some
time later Mr.. Mcdonald came to me
and said he represented two claims
against the logs for other laborine
men, and | told him chat Forbes and
Frazier had told me that there was
but one claim. Later [ asked Forbes
about it and he said he did not owe
the parties anything. Mr.. Mcdonald
came to me again about the matter
and told him l had no interest in
the matter other than to get the
amount due me, and if there was any
thing left after paying the amount
due me, when the logs were sold,
pay the surplus over to his clients
provided he could satisfy me that they
were justly entitled to it. [ have as
yet received only $50, and the logs are
yet unsold and are at the boom at

soon as there is high water enough to
bring down the balance OF the logs
and when I get the money. I will be
pleased to render an account to Mr..

is any surplus after paying the amount
advanced to me, I shall keep my word
to the very letter.

EDITOR JOURNAL:
My attention has been called to an
article in your paper last week by JOS.
A. Mcdonald, wherein Mr.. Mcdonald
accuses me of failing and refusing to
keep an agreement to pay sum OF
money to two of his clients. In so
much as you have allowed this man,
who is judgment proof to utter this
SANDER through your paper, L trust
you will allow me space to refute it in
so far as it refers to my honesty and
business integrity which | have every
reason to believe is well established in
this community. To those who know
both of us, slurs that such creatures
as Mcdonald may choose to cast upon
me must have little weight, coming
from such a source.
