Tbe Primo Minister won.

y former Governor of the Australian col
onics tells of a curious experience he once
had with a long-headed prime minister.
The latter brought in a certain measure
calculated to make the government popu-
lar with the working classes, although il
affected a foreign power so much thai
representations were made TO the imperial
authorities on the subject. A dispatch was
accordingly sent out to the Governor to
veto the bill He SEM for the premier.
I'm sorry. old man. said his eXceilency.
but I've just got orders from home. and
l shall have to block tia bill" The pre-
mier replied look here, Guvnor, I don
care a hang about the imperial govern
ment or about the Queen as far as this
thing is concerned, and what's more, ]
don't care a hang about you. I've made
up my mind TO get that bill through, and
I'll bring il through" The Governor
who was polite, asked the 'old man" to
have a drink and dropped the subject.
The measure in question became a law in
due course.

4 Wise Critic.

years figure of great prominence in
French literary life. says the Youths Com
panion AS a critic of the drama he was
looked upon as one having authority, and
praise from him meant success 10 tho
struggling playwright.
His criticisms We're honest, fearless and
independent, and it is remembered of him
that he refused the honor of belonging TO
the French Academy, lest he should come
under obligation TO favor the plays written
by other members.
Sarcey's good sense was often put to the
test. one day friend came rushing into
his room, waving a paper.

OLD LEADERS DROPPING our.

In our dispatches yesterday it was stated
that there was little or no probability that
Vice President Hobart would be renomi-
mated. He is a very ill man, and his dis
ease is of a character that requires com
plete rest. 1t may be safely said that
there is not any great amount of regret
that Mr.. Hobart will not be a candidate
for denomination. As a man he is popu-
lar with all who have any acquaintance
with him, being courteous and high
minded gentleman but he is too closely al
lied with trusts to make a popular candi-
date in a campaign which will be fought
largely on the trust issue. Besides, the
Republicans would prefer to have some
one on the ticket with Mr.. Mckinley who
made a record as soldier in the war vii
Spain.
And it is intimated strongly that Sen
ator Hanna will not be the commander OF
the Republican forces in the next cam
paign-that ne Will resign as soon as the
temporary chairman of the Republican
national convention has been chosen. 1t
is thought that ne may not even be
member of the next national committee
of his party.
Senator Hanna is also an III man. He
is suffering from a chronic anment lie
went to Europe early last summer with
the expectation of finding quick relief at
some one of the noted health-cure resorts,
but he was disappointed. On his return
he stated that he thought he had received
some benefit from his trip but his friends
say that he viii not be able to manage
the Republican campaign next year.
The Republicans would lose nothing b,
his resignation from the chairmanship or
the Republican national committee. They
could not get a shrewder or more capable
manager, but he is so unpopular with vot-
ers that the loss his unpopularity would
cause his party would more than offset
the benefits his party would receive from
his capacity as a manager. The Republ-
cans would find some difficulty in filling
satisfactorily the places now occupied by
Mr. Hobart and Mr.. Hanna. Available
heroes of the Spanish-American war are
not numerous and capable party managers
are hard to find. There is plenty Of ma
terial. but not of the right kind

cm.MBERLAINs POLICY POPULAR

II is evident that the popular sentiment
OF London supports Mr.. Chamberlain. the
Secretary for the Colonies, in his demand
upon the Beers for such concessions as
British interests in the Transvaal seem
10 require. The anti-war meeting that
was called in Hyde Park on Sunday turned
out TO be meeting in favor of war The
speakers who had been selected TO adj
dress the meeting against Mr.. Chamber
lain's policy, were driven out of the park,
and the war party took possession and
passed resolutions in accordance with its
own sentiments
There is no doubt that the working
classes of the English people are in favor
of war. Ii may be that many of them
don't know much about the merits of the
issues. Probably they don't care. They
think that war VIII bring better times. Ii
VIII afford employment for some of the
surplus labor and il Will make large
demand for many kinds of manufactured
articles The working people see in war
something by which they may be benc-
fitted, and hence without regard to the
question as to whether the war is a
righteous one or not they announce them
selves in favor of it.
There will be great deal of war talk
before there is any war. and it is by 10
means certain YET that there will be a
war The British government don't want
war and ii is certain the Beers do not.
But Great Britain isn't going to modify
any of her demands 10 secure peace. she
has her eyes on the rich gold mines of
The Transvaal and she doesn't intend TO
LEI them get away from her
The Hyde Park meeting will have the
effect of strengthening the government in
its purpose Of carrying out its Transvaal
programme. Feeling it has the support
of the, people it will accept war before Il
viii take a single backward step.
