The Quebec provincial elections
took place Tuesday and resulted in
the complete overthrow OF the Con
sentative party. In the last legisla-
ture the party stood, Conservatives
so, Liberals %. These figures have
been reversed. The Liberals have
elected so members, with a PROBABLE
ty of 53, and the Conservatives
about 20. The Liberals fought hard
for power, telling the voters that a
victory for their party would
strengthen the hands of the French
Canadian premier, Wilfred Laurier.
The Liberals elected openly pledged
themselves to secure free public
schools to becontroled by the people
alone, and in this way antagonized
the clergy in several parts of the
province.

NOTES.

England intends to spend 81 ,00O,-
OO0in strengthening her garrisons in
South Africa.
Spain admits that she has sent
272, $50 soldiers to Cuba within the
last two years.
About $4,000 of the Spanish
soldiers in Cuba have received no pay
in five months.
Queen Victoria will start electric
works at Montreal by pressing a but.
ton at Windsor castle. 1t will get so
that Emperor William will be able to
set the aurora bOrealis going by
pressing button, or Uncle Sam will
open a canal in the planet Mars by
putting his foot down.
The coming visit to Mexico of the
ex-Emprpss Charlotte, poor Car
lotta," as she has been called for
years, is of touching interest. 1t is
expected that she will arrive soon in
New York and proceed, surrounded
by luxurious care, to the scene of her
youthful happiness in Mexico. Her
condition is no longer violent, and it
is hoped that the sea journey will
benefit her health.
Europe is surprised at the Sultan's
demands and the general opinion is
that they are exhorbitant and ex-
cessive. Still there is little doubt
that were any of the six great pow
ers in Turkey place the price of peace
would have been equally nigh. Gpner-
osity to defeated enemy has never
been a particularly conspicuous Eu-
ropean trait, and the Sultan is mere
ly following precedent.
A man who shot himself in Chicago
said: 81 die for love of Marion"
Twelve Marions have already called
to see him, with the Mary AIMS still
to hear from. Any gentleman mis-
guided enough to kill himself for love
of any lady should leave her full
name. The suspense of the other
Marions and Mary AIMS is too dread
full. Besides, remOrs4 will strike him
when he finds there are so many
Others.

To MINISTER'S Let no man de-
prive you of your right to take
active part in our country's affairs.
You have the right and the RESPONSE
bility as well. Bear with me for
few lines in order to see whether We
agree.
The highest civilization is IN
doubtedly that in which there is the
readiest interchange of advantages
and opportunities among the men,
bers OF the nation. We not only
boast of a high civilization but we
even dare to call ourselves Chris,
tians." What is Christian civiliza-
ton? The reply must be made that
civilization, in order to be Christian
in any sense, must be one that, as
far as possible, from the highest to
the lowest, is acuated by Christian
principles. If this be true then, there
is, as yet, very little danger of our
going too far in such a direction. In
fact, glance over our political life
up to this time, and consideration
OF the motives that prompt many
men into it, is quite sufficient reason
for our not yet even apprOximating
the Christian standard. 1t must be
borne in mind that any further intro
ductlon of Christian principles in
politics and business will never be
made by those who oppose such
principles. The only hope that a
IF Il
a gradual moving of our civilization
forward to the humanity and
brotherly kindness that ought to
characterize it, has to be found in the
active participation in all affairs of
life by those who are the leaders OF
men along moral heights. The fact
that our spirits take on a certain
form of belief in relation to the future
life does not in any way free us from
responsibility here. We still need
food and raiment; we still need
money for tbs comforts of life and
they are still obtainable only by toll
That toll still remains hampered by
the social conditions of the day in
which we live, and those conditions
must necessarily remain hard and
Objectionable SO long as they are
solely brought about by those who
are prompted by selfish motives
Let your light so shine before men il
all the ways of life that, in Their
reaching after higher life they may
not stumble and fall over material
conditions that you could better
Hunger and thriftlessness and OPP
preston are removable enemies to
the faith you preach. Study them
and wrestle with them, that straight
paths may be made for feeble feet.

Mythology the world was believed to
be held on the shoulders of Atlas.
This man of mighty frame has his
counterpart in these later years, and
the fancy of the ancients does not
seem so very remote, for | see this
grand old age-marked world rolling
quietly along and the most sustain
ing influence in it is friendship. The
unselfshness of those who wish us
well, out of pure goodness of heart,
keeps many a toiler cheerfulIy in his
place. Gods vicegerents on earth
are friends we have. When tempted
and tried, even before we turn to God
forguidence, our thoughts are almost
invariably "What would dear -
my friend think? You magnanimous
ones, whose eyes are blinded to ouI
outer faults, but keen-visioned fol-

A Large Question for Farmers to Con
slider and Answer.

The new secretary of agriculture,
James Wilson of Iowa, has been look
ing over the statistics of Agriculture
and it's related industries, and has
found many things that might in
terest the American farmer, tariff or
no tariff. For instance, he has found
that this country imported last year
100000 eggs. and that 10000
dozen of them came from China. The
latter fact loses much of it's impress
siveness when it is remembered that
the Chinese in this country import
large quantities of eggs from home;
but why should the product of the
American hen be supplanted or sup
pemented, as the case may be, by
100000 dozen eggs from Canada?
Secretary Wilson thinks this is be-
cause the American farmer does not
keep a sufficiently sharp eye to his
own interests ana he is inclined to be
indignant because we import $780,
100000 worth of sugar every year,
instead of growing IL ourselves, in
the form of sugar beet.
Similarly, the secretary thinks our
own farmers should produce the
$10,0O0,OO0 worth of goat skins
that we import annually, as well as
the $65S,320 worth of beans and
peas, the $556,644 worth of cab
bages, the $127,59 worth of pota-
toes, the 100000 worth of hops,
the ~, 773,535 worth of hay, and, in
the southern states, the nearly 49,.
100000 worth of rice. Other things
that the secretary thinks we ought
to grow in this country are vanilla
beans, tea, camphOr, cork, rubber
myrrh, trankincense, and, if we must
have it, opium. All these things car
be grown in various sections of the
United States, and all they need tc
make them profitable is little in
telligence ana energy on the part o
the planters. Beginnings have beer
made with most of them, and seen
to be fairly successful.
But the point for the American
farmer to reflect upon most pro
foundly is the large amount OF BIZ
own staples now supplied by foreign
ers. Why doesn't ne grow thes
things himself, and SO capture th
money that now goes abroad TO
them? 1t is question to be takel
up and considered III broad va.
by representative farmers, and b,
farmers organizations, both nation
al and local.

To BEwILDERED ONES :-Buffetted
by ill winds, with faith shaken by
misery that seems undeserved, you
sometimes are tempted to cry out
that life is naught but chance and
mischance. But every analogy OF
of nature is against you. There land
with you too) everything is conclud-
ed to be the result of cause and effect.
There is a reason for all that is hap
pening to you, difficult though it
may be to discover it. Learn from
the scientist. In a number of scien-
ces; for instance, the study of the
stars or the study of life, there is a
point reached beyond which the light
of reason fails and all becomes i'm
penetrable darkness. The scientist
must choose one or two ways,
either conclude that the origin OF
things comes by chance, or that all
is ordered and directed by a power
beyond his ken. Which seems to you
the more reasonable? | need hardly
to inquire! Then let your reason
lead you TO the same conclusion IN
relation to your own problems.

SOME RAMBLING THOUGHTS
copyrighted by memo"

To THE ENvIoUs How do you
better yourself by cOveting the pros
perity of Others? Do you not rather
let loose in your heart ravening
wolves whose teeth are whetted to
tear down those who run well 3?
Many untoward things have hap
pened to you, doubtless, and you feel
sick at failures, but envy only leads
you further astray. Concentration
upon your own affairs Zone of the
ways to success) is impossible if your
malevolent mind spends its strength
in estimating the seemingly unfair
distribution of worldly goods. The
brighter the sunshine the darker the
shadow, and your heart would al
most stand still with dread could
you see the gloom along some of the
ways you think so bright and hap
py. Tread serenely once more your
own way, holding life to a proving
place of merit, and at the end there
shall be praise.

INDIAN TROUBLE
Fight Between Indians and a Game
Warden.

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 27.-A special to
lhe Dispatch from the Leech Lake reser-
vation, in northern Minnesota. says:
Information by special messenger has
just reached the reservation that a fight
occurred yesterday between two Indians
and a game warden. in which all three
were killed, and also one Indian woman.
A deputy game warden. whose mama
cannot be ascertained, arrived at an In
dian camp On an island between Bermid,
il and the Cass Lake reservation, and
seized two guns and a trapping outfit
which belonged TO Kak-Kah-Quash and
Mahcheannequah, two Indians on the
Cass Lake reservation.
He also made an attempt TO seize some
furs which they had, but they resisted
~whereupon the warden dubbed the old
err Indian with a gun until be became
unconscious and then shot him. He next
shot the other Indian and his wife
MORALLY wounding both.
In the meantime, the older Indian
having recovered consciousness. shot
and killed the warden.
Dr. e. S. Hart, o"erseer in charge of
the sub-agency, sent Martin Branch and
a detail OF Indian police to the scene.
No detailed account OF the fight can be
had. The only Information received
comes by an Indian boy 10 or IA years
0. age, who witnessed the shooting.
Considerable excitement exists here
among the Indians, and DR.. Hart is un-
willing to express any opinion regard
ing the effect it may have upon them.
The Indians naturally consider the in
reference in their hunting privileges
by game wardens as a violation OF their
treaty. rights.

DIFFERENCES HAVE BEEN
SETTLED.
And That the Sale Will Take Place a.
Soheduled-If, by Chance. the Bid
Should FAIL Short, the Government

anc by the governments claim against
the main line OF the Union Pacific road,
principal and interest, Is guaranteed.
This amount is something in excess o.

road to the amount of $3.50 SIP. OF

Whether or not the reorganization

$50, 900, 900 holds good to a proportion-
ate share as to the Kansas Pacific road
Is an open question. The master in
chancery fixed this amount at approx
