GOLDEN RULE JONES.

door iarm hands. and when he was
only three years OF age they emigrat-

TUESDAY, JULY Ie, 1904.

The press association spent cou-
pie hours in the thriving and progress
sive CITY OF Union on last Thursday
afternoon. The Chamber OF Com
merce and the mayor and other citi-
zens united to extend the invitation
and provided special train to bring
the association from White Stone to
Union and return. We were driven
over the city and given every atten-
ton. This is mentioned to commend
the spirit OF progressiveneSs which
actuates the young business men OF
this city. Anything that will promote
the general welfare OF the city has
their united support.
As a result OF this spirit OF united
effort Union has grown from small
village OF ten years ago. as some one
remarked that seemed completed, to
thriving and prosperous city OF
some 5000 or 10000 souls. with large
and prosperous mills on every side.
They are now building railroad
which will connect the Seaboari and
the Atlantic Coast Line with the city.
1t is this broad spirit which gives
vitality TO community in its COM
mercial interests.

we believed the people OF Newberry

MEAT PACKERS STRIKE.
Second Week Began With No Pros

chicago, july lS.-lhe prices OF
meat will reach the highest point in
a few days and then will decline until
they come back to normal in ten days.
This is the prediction OF the pack

The retail dealers are expected to
advance the rate Of straight beef

has been countermanded. pending the

CANADA AND IMPERg Il DEFENCE.


Sir Michael Hfcks-Beach, in introducing a
deputation TO Mr. Balfour the other day, took
occasion to hint TO the colonies that they ought
to be contributors to the defence Of the empire.
With ten millions of colonists in widely scat
tered parts of the globe it is scarcely to be
wondered at that the forty millions Of taxpay-
ers in the United Kingdom should show ten
dency to restlessness under the burden Of en-
pire and that they should suggest TO the colo
MES that the latter ought no longer to expect to
be treated as children but to come forward and
share the burdens of imperial defence This. in
fact, was the hint given courteously, but none
the less plainly, by Sir Michael Hicks Beach
and by the Premier in their remarks TO the
deputation
Still, the problem is by no means an easy one
of solution. While the colonies, particularly
Canada, have recently given plain indications
that they are not to be treated as children but
like kiplings Lady of the Shows" view them
selves daughters in their mothers home but
mistresses in their own, it is evident that the
line of duty and privilege has not yet been
clearly drawn, and also that there may be great
difficulty in drawing it. If Mr.. ChamberIans
dreams of empire be realized, well and
good; but there are some very troublesome ques-
tons TO be met and solved before its realiza-
ton. The United Kingdom may justly complain
that the burden of imperial armament falls upon
1t alone, but 1t is not yet ready, apparently, to
welcome relief on the only terms which Can
ada, for instance, will be willing to offer it
AS THE Pail Mall Gazette" asks Wbv should
South Africa and Australia be expected TO give
voluntary contributions IL Canada goes free?
And why should Canada contribute to q defence
fund IN the expenditure of which she has no
voice? 1.-The Westminster Gazette" figures IT
out that the contribution Canada ought to make
in proportion to population would be So 75O.
000 while, on the same basis Australia and
New-Zealand should furnish SI575OOOO
Evidently the time is coming even II no+ al
ready at hand, when there must be an under
standing upon this subject between the mother
and her daughters as to the common expense
for common purposes, chief OF which is the
naval defence or the empire Yet so far with
the exception OF Mr.. Chamberlain's proposals
Englishmen do not seem to have considered that
II will be useless TO ask for the financial co-oper
alton Of their colonies unless they are prepared
TO grant them representation either at West
minister or IN some other equally direct way
AS the great Earl Of Chatham insisted with
stirring eloquence at the time the thirteen colo-
MES and the mother country came to the part
Ing or the ways, taxation and representation
are inseparable. Has the lesson of more than
q hundred years ago been learned thoroughly. or
will a similar mistake be made in reference IN
the daughters now nearly full grown? Mr.
Cham eeriain. and probably Mr.. Balfour, realize
