Owing TO the shortness Of the period

low each other in the utmost profuslon

colonies was invalved I'm the success Of
the mining industry and that the Trans

dustry were destroyed. as experience had
shown that the situation was soved only
by coolie labor.
Mr.. Balfour characterized as foolish and
atrocious falsehoods the Liberal repre-
sentations, that the status Of the coolies
was one OF slavery, and expressed the
conviction that the Liberal government
never contemplated the insane attempt
to drive out the Chinese. He said that
the whole outcry was nothing but an cleo
tioneering msnoeuvre.
The Conservative paper in their edito-
rials this morning appear to be pleased
with the moderation of Mr.. Chamberlain's
manifesto, and to be somewhat relieved
that It reveals no hostility toward Mr.
Balfour
They note as the chief points OF differ
ence that Mr.. Balfour gives the first
place OF retailia ton. while Mr.. Chamber
lain places colonial preference in the fore
front.
The Standard instances this an indi-
cation that an important impeachment
has been effected and congratulates Mr.

satisfaction. IL says that Mr.. Chamber
