THE political, not industrial, govern

just shown its ability to do things
well-for some people. There are
$25, 100000 of government bonds
which are due and should be taken up.
They draw 2 per cent interest and sell

publican voters have selected to look
after the treasury, wanted to pay out
some money to help his brother bank

bonds which are due, he pays of $685.

WAR TIME TALK.

These Beers are carrying on the
war in terrible, uncivilized fashion, y
said the fat man to his neighbor as
they rode out on car together.
How 500 said the little neighbor,
bristling. He had just taken part in
pro-Boer mass meeting, and he was
astonished at the temerity Of the fat
man.
"Why, man alive" calculated the
fat man, "Genteral White has en-
deavored consistently to avoid she'd
ding blood in fights. He has allowed
thousands of Beers to escape with
their lives, sir; yes, sir; with their
lives and in some instances their rifles
Cecil Rhodes has not fired gun since
the war broke out, meek rs lamb
And what thanks do they get? Why,
a horde of uncivilized Beers swoop
down to vary the monotony of futile
siege at Kimberley. They fire bomb
into Cecil Rhodes dining room, while
Mr.. Rhodes and other gentlemen are
at breakfast. China smashed, glass
broken, Mr.. Rhodes nerves upset!
ooh, yes; I know the excuse. Beers
didn't know it was breakfast time. Of
course, they didn't. That uncultured
Dom Paul of theirs gets up at o'clock
in the morning, in pursuance of his
barbarous custom OF taking bath and
reading chapter in the Bible before
breakfast. Yes, sir; and they say his
favorite reading is the story of the
chosen people shifting the Hittites
and the Amelikites and cutting off
their ten toes"
The little man started. The fat
man went on explosively:
"And what else do they do? Ac-
cording to London dispatches, these
Beers, sir, read private letters belong
ing to Rhodes and others. They seize
supplies intended to relieve the suffer-
ings of Tommy Atkins, sir, at Lady
smith and Mafeking, and Kimberly
and Colenso. They even violate the
Sabbath by Smelling Ladysmith. They
blew up a bridge, but I see the tele-
grams say that while both spans were
broken. the masonry was left intact
That is positively the first time these
bloody Beers have left any old British
think intact"
"And the mules" began the
little man smiling.

the fat man full steam on. "They

pose to worry White. And after White
has refrained from worrying the Beers

man prepared to leave the car. "what

THAT WINS q cruel joke young girl
played on her mother recently. She
accidentally found love letter that
her father had written to her mother
in their halcyon days of courtship.
She read it to her mother, substituting
her own name and that of her lover.
The mother raved with anger and
stamped her feet with disgust, and for
babe her daughter having anything
more to do with fellow who would
write such sickening, nonsensical
stuff. Then the girl gave the letter
to her mother to read, and suddenly
the house became so quiet she could
hear the grass grow in the back yard.

Should Know How to Take Her "Medicine.' u

England is somewhat used to her
present experience with the Beers, and
it may be said she entered the conflict
with full knowledge of the fighting
proclivities of the stolid Dutch ances-
try she had to contend with. In
1901, the battle of Majuba Hill, was
one of five reverses suffered by her
Majesty's troops, of which it is said
that while a crushing defeat for the
British, it was not what may be consid.
erei large battle. Sir George Colley
was the British Commander. He had
been repulsed at Laing's Mex and on
1ngogo Heights. Having been rein
forced, he decided to occupy Majuba
Hill, which commanded the Boer posi-
ton. The hill was so steep that ar
tillery could not be got up to it, so his
force consisted of about $50 of the
Fifty-eighth and Sixtieth regiments,
the Ninety-second Highlanders and of
the naval brigade. When these men
had toiled to the top of the hill it was
found that their rifles would not carry
to the Beers, who, led by Smit, Jou.
bert's second in command, climbed up
the face of the hill, while others de.
livered fire that kept the British un-
der cover. When the Beers reached
the hollow top of the hill there was q
brief engagement at very close range.
Eventually the British ran for it.
Colley refused to run and fell with q
bullet through his brain. The British
loss was $50.

A telegram from New York city an

It is most extraordinary that with

cy without eternally borrowing, and
even then the borrowing syndicate
makes profit out of the loan, which
we are compelled to pay. Perhaps
this may be one of the signs of our
great prosperity.
The United States alone, between
184S and 1873, produced the enormous
sum of $1,2S9, $4,000 in gold. From
S73 to 1899 we produced the addi-
tional sum of 1914, 252. 900 in gold; q
a grand total of $2,1l4,202, 600 in gold.
These are the official figures.
Treasurer Roberts in his recent re-
port estimates the gold coin in circu-
lation at $646. 1861, 1885 on Sept. 80,
1899. Where this enormous sum of
gold went 70 can he readily perceived
from the creditor who loans it back to
us in small quantities. If Treasurer
Roberts had excluded the loan of
500, OO0, 900 in what he pleases to call
an increase over the gold coin in cir
culation in 1896, our present circula-
ton would be $167, 5S9, sos in gold
coin less than in 1896. If we are pros
pering at all it is certainly on bor-
rowed money, for We are being drained
of our gold faster than we can produce

opening of the Quay trial this
morning Expert Goldsmith was
recalled. Attorney RothemeI asked
him what periods of time the
calculations in the red book were
made. This was objected to on
the ground that the time to settle
it was when the book is actually
in evidence, and the objection was
sustained. The question was re-
garded as looking toward getting
the contents of the book before
the jury before the book is ad-
mitted as evidence. Rothermel
accepted the ruling and dismissed
Goldsmith for the time.

Sheriffs' Cannot Collect Double
Costs for Serving Official Papers

An importan: opinion rendered
by Attorney General Bellinger
recently is to the effect that con-
structive costs are not recognized
ny law, and that, therefore, a
sheriff can charge mileage for the
actual distance travelled in ex-
ecutinga warrant. If two war
rants are served upon the same
person at the same time, there
can be no additional mileage.
Charges or warrants served upon
different parties at the same time
