a CABINET MEETING.
Important Statements Expected From Pre-
mier Salisbury.

mier Salisbury.
London, January 11-All the minis
tiers were present at the cabinet meet
ing to-day, and Joseph Chamberlain,
who had returned from Osborne, where
ne was received by the Queen, was en-
Enthusiastically greeted with cries Of
Bravo, Chamberlain" from the crowds
awaiting developments N Downing
street.
The Westminster Gazette this after
noon says that It learns that as re-
suit OF Emperor Williams action TO-
ward Great Britain in the matter OF
the TranSvaal, the Marquis Of Salisbury
will announce at the cabinet meeting
to-day a re3pproachment between Great
Britain and France and Russia. The
Gazette adds that the cabinet will also
be informed Of an effort which Il IS
hoped may yet be crowned with success
to end the Venezuela dispute by an
agreement with Venezuela direct. Con-
tinu.ng, the Gazette says: This is
complicated by internal revolutionary
difficulties, but is being steadily prose
cuted. If direct diplomatic relations
could be re-established, there would be
a good prospect of an early agreement
through the good Offices of an Amer
.can State, not the United States"
The cabinet nesting lasted three
hours.
The colonial Office says it is not true
that the situation IN the Transyaal IS
more strained than il was.

PROTECT THE BIRDS.

The legislature has undertaken to
amend the fish and game laws, and
all in the right direction. In all such
laws there is ever a tendency to take
too narrow view of the subject, the
view that birds and animals are to be
preserved as a source of food supply
Great pains are taken to preserve
ducks and geese, grouse, sage and
prairie hens. This is as it should be,
but the same pains should be taken to
preserve our native birds of all kinds.
Who that walks afield does not feel
happier when he hears the song of
thrush in a bush near by? What is
more charming than to sit in the soft
air of the early evening and listen to
the song of the robin, perched upon
the top of some tall poplar? Then
what a refining influence the presence
of beautiful birds has upon children.
1t teaches them to love beauty and
inspires in them poetic feelings. Teach
the children that birds are to be loved
and treated with gentleness. There
never was child but admired the blue

was not taken from the blue vault of
heaven. 1t is far better that boys and
girls be taught to regard birds as
friends and neighbors than as objects
to be shot and worn upon hats. Even
from the unitarian point of view
birds should be protected, as they are
far more the friends of the farmer as
insect destroyers than enemies.
The same protection should be ex-
tended to all our birds thai is to the
game birds. Moreover, the law for
their protection should be as rigidly
enforced as it is against those who
shoot game out of season. If this is
done perhaps in time all of our native
birds would become as tame as the
gulls. Let all birds be held in the
almost reverence that they are.

FAIRNESS IN POLITICS.

The other day in the senate Senator
Teller gave an example of fairness in
politics that is worthy of imitation
from all parties. Senator Aldrich had

charging that it had never fallen below
100000 600 until the advent of Mr..
Cleveland's second administration
Said Senator Teller:
That is fact which everybody I'm
derstands. We did not break into the
reserve of $1O0,00O,0OO until after the
present administration came into pow
er. To be fair, am bound to say that
1 have not the slightest doubt but
that we should have broken into it if
Mr.. Harrison had been reelected. II
was not the Democratic party that
came into power that made it; it was
the condition of the country.

matter were not sufficient to shock the
religious sentiment of the people of
the United States. the outspoken I'M
belief of Mrs. Stanton would have done
so. Why is it, she asked, on one
occasion. more ridiculous for women
to protest against her present status
in the Old and New Testaments, in the
ordinances and discipline of the church,
than in the statutes and constitution
of the state? I do not be-
heve that any man ever saw or talked
with God; do not believe that God
inspired the Mosaic Code. or told the
historians what they say he did about
woman, for all the religions on the
face Of the earth degrade her"
The plain answer to the question Of
Mrs. Stanton is that if the changed
conditions of modern life are such as
to demand the creation Of new rela-
tions for man and woman or the modi-
fication of old ones, why let the crea-
tions and notifications take place, but
do not mar what is so extensively be-
lieved to be the word of God in order
to do it. Let its utterances stand as
the expressed will Of God under the
circumstances existing at the time they
were made; and let the changed condi-
tions of modern life plead the excuses
for what ever of innovation may be
found necessary.
Again we say that the suffragists
have done well in repudiating responsi-
bility for the Woman's Bible.

DOUBLE WATER SUPPLY.

The mayor in his message suggests
that thorough study be made of the
following question:: would it prove
advantageous to the city to have two
systems of water supply, one to fur
nish water for drinking, cooking, and
general domestic uses about the kit
chen, and to be brought from the best
and purest source possible, the other
TO furnish water for flushing sanitary
appliances. fire protection, street and
lawn sprinkling, manufacturing, etc?'
1t may be well to advise the thor
ough study of this or any other ques-
ton, but in this case we are of opin-
ion that it will not take long to arrive
at a conclusion. The mayor expresses
the opinion that the adoption of the
plan suggested for study would not
necessarily involve the construction Of
an entire duplicate water pipe system,
and even though it should the expense
of system for the domestic supply
would be slight in comparison with the
investment in our present system. That
may be true, but still the cost for the
domestic system would be very con-
siderable and by very long odds the
cheapest and best way to meet the
purpose Of the suggestion, viz, sup
plying pure water for domestic pur-
poses would be to keep pure the entire
water supply of the city by proper reg
ulations concerning the source and
course of our supply streams

sUTFRAGIsTs AND THE wOMANS
BIBLE.


The national Equal Suffrage Associa-
ton now assembled in convention at
Washington has repudiated the So
called Woman's Bible 1t was not ac-
complished without some effort, how
ever; the dispatches say that the de-
bate was warm, and the resolution de-
claring that the associa ton was in no
way responsible for the Bible" was not
after all unanimously adopted. The
association has done well in repudiat
ing this mutilation of the Bible-for
it can be called nothing else. It was
not re-translation of the Bible out of
the original languages in which the
sacred books were written. 1t was not
even a careful revision of the language
Of the Bible from any standpoint of
scholarship. 1t was a cold-blooded
proposition of literary butchery of a.
book that is held sacred by the bulk
of American citizens, and that too in
the interest Of a special political move

state. 1t was commentary too, from
the standpoint of the agnostic and
the atheist. Mrs. Elizabeth Cadv

of her assistant editors, were unbe-
levers, and hence it would not be
difficult tc forecast the havoc that
