Chamberlain Sets Out on His Fisca
Campaign.

Birmingham, Eng, Oct 7.-Joseph
Chamberlain set out from here during
the morning on his fiscal campaign
amid every demonstration of good will
from his fellow townsmen. Hundreds
gathered at the railroad station and
alternately sang For He's Jolly
Good Fellow" and shouted Good old
Joey" and THE country's with you.
Vain appeals were made for speech
but the only expressed opinion that
could be extracted from the former
secretary for the colonies was in reply
to congratulations on the appointment
of his son. Austen, as chancellor OF
the exchequer. when Mr.. Chamberlain
admitted that there were "a lot OF
difficulties before the party" but he
thought they would "get through with
them all right"

AS POINTED out in these
columns some time since the sale
of the Leech lake pine may be
held up for the present. The
actual sale may take place but it
is possible that it may be made
of no effect by the suits now in
stituted by the [pdians who
claim that their rights are being
grossly outraged by the Morris
law. However that may be the
arbitrary ruling of the interior
department that all pine sold
must be logged within so short a
time has. resulted in distinct in
jury to all other logging sections
of the state, and if the sale should
be held up there will not be any
great amount Of grief outside the
Chippewa pine district.
