The Morning News has received from
Mira Ghulam Ahmad, Chief of Qua
dian, India, a pamphlet entitled, AN
Answer to DR.. Dowies Prediction of a
General Destruction of an Muhamma-
dams" With the pamphlet is a request
that it be reviewed, and that a copy of
the paper containing the review be for
warded by mail to Mutt Muhammad
Sadig, Quadian Dist; Gurdaspur, In
dia (Asia). Thus we see how the in
fiuence of the Morning News is grow
ing and spreading over the face of the
earth. Only the other day a Chinese
merchant in Shanghai sent us a want
ad," and now come some of the priests
of Muhammad with the invitation that
we see if they have not got the better
of DR.. Dowie, the Chicago Elijah H."
in a religious argument. We must
firmly decline to umpire this contro-
versy, for the reason that we think
the controversialists are both wrong.
DR.. Dowie asserts his own divinity and
prophetic succession, and the Muham-
madans deny the divinity of Jesus.

THE BOURQUIN MURDER.

The assassination of Mr.. Bourquin
and his servant on the Dean Forest
road seems TO have been as cold blood
ed and atrocious as could we'll be
imagined. Both men were shot from
behind. the servant while he was run
ming away from danger. The probable
tiles are that Mr.. Bourquin never knew
who his enemy was. but that the COL
ored man did know and was killed be-
cause dead men tell no tales" The
case Is one that calls for the unremit-
ting and best efforts of the authori-
ties. Public safety demands that the
murderer or murderers be caught and
hanged. Crimes of violence have lately
been altogether too frequent in the
country districts of this county, and
the only way to check them is to make
the criminally-inclined know that If
they break the law they will certainly
be detected and punished according to
their deserts.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New Orleans states CDem) says:
Mark Hanna made a speech in C1eve-
land his town, a few nights ago, in
which he declared that he never had
and never would tell anything but the
truth And yet the old sinner has
been going around out there asserting
that the Democrats want to destroy our
prosperity. How is that for a whop-
per?''
The Philadelphia Record Dem.)
says: THE assertion that reciprocity
with Cuba on a basis of free sugar
would be advantageous tc the Ameri-
can people is not a speculative prop
osition; its absolute truthfulness can
be proved by past experience. Ten
years ago, when Cuban sugar was adj
mitted duty free and some slight con-
cessionS were made by the Spanish
tariff for Cuba in favor Of American
products, our trade with the island
amounted in value to more than $780,
100000 per annum. A similar arrange
ment now would produce as good, If
not better, results
The Philadelphia North American
says: 1.-THE list of millionaire MEM
bers of the syndicate which is to build
a boat to defend the America Cup sug-
gests ownership of steel mills and rail-
roads and oil wells and steamships,
but by no stretch of imagination can
it be said TO represent American
yachtsmen. Sir Thomas Upton ex-
hibited a true sense of humor when he
looked over the names and remarked
that the first thing. he would have to
do would be to see how his balance
stood at the bank. Nor can 1t be de-
MED that there is a certain sting in his
jest. The gentlemen who offer to
build the new defender have never
taken a prominent part in yachting,
but they could build a boat of gold in
stead of aluminium II they took the
notion. There probably is not one of
them but knows less of craftsmanship
than Sir Thomas nor one of them,
perhaps, but has more money TO spend
than he"

Yes who is Itf
From Punch.

From Punch.
What rushes through the crowded
street
With whirling noise and throbbing
beat,
Exhaling odors far from sweet?
The motor car.
Whose wheels DER greasy asphalt skim.
Exacting toll of life and limb,
CWhat is a corpse or so to him)?
The Motorists.
Who flies before the oily gust
Waited his way through whirling dust.
And hopes the beastly thing will bust?
The pedestrian.
Who thinks that it is scarcely fair
To have to pay for road repair
While sudden death lies lurking there?
The ratepayer.
Who as the car goes whizzing post
At such law-breaking stands aghast
CFor forty miles an hour is fast)?
The policeman.
Who hears the case with bland sur
prise,
And over human frailty signs,
The while he reads between the lies?
The magistrate.

product to undergo the process of NOR
ganzation. For the past two years
there has been a gradual merging of
the various soft coal producing COM

lengthy conference the other day. the
subject matter of which. according to

A race issue is going to cause a lot
of trouble in the Transvaal. The bulk
and the best of the Boer farms have
been taken possession of by blacks,
who refuse to give them up to their
repatriated owners. The Beers demand
that the government shall restore
their lands to them. The government
is making an effort to comply with
the demand, meanwhile intimating to
the Beers that it would be pleased
to have them resort to force to secure
possession of their farms. The Beers
do no not care to resort to force, but
the bad feeling between the blacks and
the whites is steadily growing strong
er. The outcome will be, of course,
that the blacks will have to give way,
but they will probably not do it until
there has been more or less bloodshed.

the matter. In case Mr.. Hollands re-
