IT is one thing to declare war, and
quite another to know where or when
it.would end. The ninety day enlist
ments for the civil war lasted nearly
four years. President Mckinley is
fully justified in taking every precau-
ton to guard against needless precipi-
tation of war. His position is that
war will be welcomed if it must come
otherwise he is for peace. The sober
sense of the country endorses that at
titude.-Olvmpian.

Peace missions Meet In Paris
and Resume Their DelibcrntiOn

Paris, Oct. 27.-The American peace
commissioners held a session OF several
hours prior to the joint session of the
two commissions, which opened at
o'clock.
The Americans fully realize that they
are approaching the discussion of the
chief question intrusted to them-name-
ly, the future of the Philippine islands
and it may be taken for granted that
they are we'll prepared to take the mat
ter up if it is preached by the Span
iards.
TIE papers here treat of the fall of the
French caA'not and the scenes in the
chamber Of deputies almost to the ex-
clusion of general news. All of them,
however, dwell briefly on the Spanish
crisis or the sNl't in the Liberal party
of Spain, without, however, direct ref
erence to the Paris peace commission,
except III the case of new paper, La
Volante, which in a Madrid article deal
ing with the Internal situation in Spain,
in summing up says:
"Whatever ray be said one way or
the ether regarding the situation one
thing is apparent-that the moment is
badly chosen for ministerial crisis
When dreadful calamities threaten
Spain from the outside, and at the mo-
ment when her destines are being de-
ci1ed by the Paris conference and at
the moment when her flag is crushed at
Porto Rico, the Liberal party is in
state of chaos and disagreement, and in
the face of American pretensions,
which are daily becoming more arro-
giant, Spain finds herself with a minis
try without authority.
"Never has she needed more impera-
lively a strong government, one more
watchful or awake to outside questions.
Instead of this, miserable internal quar-
rels are distracting the attention of
those who now ought to have no other
preoccupaticns than the salvation. of
their country
lie Matin in terminating brief re-
sumo of the Spanish crisis adds
THE council deliberated on the GUS
toms tariff of Porto Rico, prematurely
considered as no longer forming part of
SPAIN"

den party of Fresno and the White
party of Michigan. representing so poo
pie, have returned over the Edmonton

The ceremony which took place at
our a1mory to-day has an important
significance to the condition of patri-
otism amongst those who have suffered
and risked their lives in the cause of
their country during the past four or
five months, for as they babe adieu TO
the brass buttons and the blue uniforms
to take up once more their individual
interests there was hardly man amongst
the company, which is the pride OF our
city, who would not willingly have
turned around and once more assigned
his life to the service of Uncle Sam.
For four long months they were absent
from home, families and friends heroic
ally letting their own interests be swal-
lowed up by cause which seemed to
them their duty to uphold in behalf Of
those they represented. They knew
not how long would be the struggle or
how soon if ever they would return.
Their fortitudc was not rXcelled and
for all they have passed through and
suffered in the place Of us who remained
at home let us each and all reach out a
helping hand TO welcome them back to
citizenship once more, and more than
this let each loyal citizen make an ef-
fort to make their pathway Of life as
smooth as possible and assist those who
find themselves out of positions or other
wise embarrassed in lettering their con-
ditions.
