was the feature of the railroad list and
the only news to explain the advance
was a report that sale of a block of
several millions of its convertible bonds
had been effected.
There was no official sanction for this
report. The rise ir Rock Island and
Union Pacific awakened little response
amongst the ether Changers and Pacitics.

1odav's Election in Canada.

This is election day over in Canada.
In comparison with our own campaign
the Canadian campaign is short, sharp
ard decisive. as the nominations were
made only few days ago. The charge
so often made against our American
political campaigns. that they upset
business during a period Of many
months. certainly CANNOT be charged
against the Canadians. The election
involves the choosing Of about 200
members of the Dominion Parliament,
and the two parties. Liberals and Con-
servatives. are struggling strenuously
for supremacy.
Upon the result depends the issue of
whether Sir Wilfred Larrier shall re-
main in control Of the government. or
give place to his Conservative oppo-
nent. r. L. Borden of Halifax, leader
of the opposition. The main issue in
volved, as earlier stated in these
Sot''itS. is tHe railway pTODicn OF tue
Dominion. Reciprocity with this coun-
try does not enter into the contest to
any great extent. The present ma
jority for the Laurier government in
Parliament is nearly half hundred
ard it would take a Conservative land
slide to overcome this. Laurier seems
to bt dignified. tactful head of tn.
government. and is certainly y.ry well
disposed towards the United States.
There is absolutely no interest in the
election on this side of the line. and n
makes no difference to American in
terests which side comes out the win.

The Russian Defence Of Port Arthur.

The glamour of the Japanese success
in the war in the far East has, per-
haps. blinded our eyes to the valor
shown by the vanquished. In prais-
ing the heroic little Japs for what they
have accomplished upon land and sea
in the past few months, we should not
fail to do justice to their opponents.
Certainly the heroism and hardwood
with which the defenders of Port Ar
thur have held it against the cOntinu-
Gus assaults during the weeks of this
long siege, merits the praise and adj
miration of the civilized world.
Since last May, the japanese have
invested that city, sending larger
armies and fresh troops against it all
the time. When the siege began, the
Russians are supposed to have had
about 10000 men in the city. Now
that garrison has been cut down by
death and disease to about 10000 men.
and possibly to 5000 men. These war;
riors must garrison line 20 miles
long. There are no reserves. Their
food and ammunition are getting low.
There has been no relief and no rest
for them. They are half clad and win
ter is coming on. Even water is said
to be lacking in the besieged city.
For months the world has been wait
ing for Port Arthur to fall, but that
decreasing band of Russian soldiers
has kept at bay the. armies of the
Mikado in a way that will make the
siege of Port Arthur one Of the mos,
| notable in all the history Of warfare
| In the war with China. the japanese
| troops succeeded in capturing Port Ar
thur after siege of few days, al
though the Chinese had the hills mined
and defended the city with KrupI
guns. The difference in the length OF
the two sieges may be said to repre-
sian and Chinese soldiers. OF course
the present siege cannot last much
longer. The end must be close al
hand for thAwasting Russian garri-
son: but while cheering the victorious
japanese, the world must not withhold
the applause due the Russians for theil
stubborn and desperate defence of the
doomed city.

Since The Hague peace conference
was convened i'm 1899, it has acted as
arbiter to two disputes. the Venezuela
matter and the Plus fund case between
this country and Mexico. So it APP
pears if it settles the dispute growing
out of the Russians attack upon Brit
iSh fishermen, it will be the first con-
troversy to come before it between two
Old World powers. In the two cases
where its good offices have been in
voked, the decisions have been accept
ed in the best of spirit, and it is hoped
there will be the same result in this
latest instance.
