ST. CROIX STATION.

London April 25th-It is announced that
Sir James Dougherty, the present assistant
under Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant
of Ireland, will succeed sir Antony Macdon-
mel as Under Secretary, the ~latter's recon-
mendations having been rejected by the
Congested Districts Board.
Mr.. William O'Brien will call o new con-
ference on the land question, with Sir William
Butler as chairman. The Sinnfeiners con-
tend that Mr.. Asquiih's succession to the
premiership is u proof Of the failure of
parliamentarism, and the younger National
lists are eager to oppose him, but the older
heads insist he should have a fair trial.
Mr.. JoyDson Hicks has been elected for
North West Manchester by 5,419 votes, Mr..
Churchill receiving 1888, and NJ. Irving, the
Socialist Candidate, 276. The constituency
has thus reversed itself upon the heaviest
poll 10 the last twenty years. The party
leaders have te~legrapl1ed Mr.. Churchill an in
~v.tation to contest DIndae, vice NJ. Edmund
Robertson. the late Secretary to the Admiral
ty, who is to receive a peerage. Among the
explanations of Mr.. Churchills defeat is Mr..
Asquith's failure to write Mr.. Churchill
such a letter as he wrote Mr.. Wall
ter Kunciman and Mr.. B flour wrote
Mr.. Joynson Hicks, and the Uaionists con-
tended that either Mr.. Asqlith disapproved
Mr.. Ohurchills declarations regarding Home
Rule or he was willing to see Mr.. Churchilrs

breach of custom in supporting Mr..
Churchill was also not helpful, and the Catholic
support was tardy and lukewarm, the En-
g'ish Catholic priests opposing him in spite
of Mr.. Redmond's advice. The Suffragettes'
opposition was also more harmful than the
Socialists. Intense excitement was mani
tested, but there was no Mafeking over the
result Mr.. Churchill, his mother standing
beside him, was the earliest to congratulate
Mr.. Joynson Hicks, who attributed his victory
to the education and licensing bills. Later,
Mr., Churchill, in an address at the Reform
Club, said it was useless to disguise the
heavy blow, the consequences of which were
grave, but he exhorted Liberals not to de-

Wednesday, Doth April, 1898.

One of the results Of the dry weather of
the latter part OF last year and the past
four months, has been that a considerable
quantity of salt has been formed on the
Great Pond in the East End.
Now and again thin crusts of salt have
been formed there, but it is very many years
since any considerable deposit has been
made. In the last three or four weeks.
however, salt has been brought from the
Pond to Bassin and other places by the cart
load clean, good salt, fit apparently for any
use.
We remember some months ago, on driv-
ing over Lowry Hill, to have noticed that
there was a large quantity Of water in the
Pond it was not rain-water, for there had
been no rain, but s~ea-water, which had en-
tered the pond, its entry being possibly the
result of unusually high tides or perhaps of
have been, the sea-water was there, and it's
evaporation has left the salt now being col
lected.
We are glad to learn that the showers
which have been characteristic of the recent
weather have been rather numerous and
bountiful in some other parts of the island,
especially in the northwest, where we learn
for example of II lines in a single day. Out
here, in the east, we shall not have accu-
mulated much more than hat for the whole
month, and while we are pleased to have had

the shareholders present asked for the
names of all the shareholders, so as
to have an opportunity to select the
most suitable, and a list, which, now
ever, did not appear to contain the names
of the most recent subscribers, was circulat-
ed. Vote by ballot was proposed, and ulti-
mately, after voting papers had been
distributed, the Secretary said, that to facili-
tate matters the Committee had drawn up
a list, which they would submit to the meet
ing, on the understanding, Of course, that
it was open to any shareholder to pro-
pose other names or to enter on his vot-
ing paper any other names in place of these.
The list was then real. A sh areholder
proposed to add Mr.. GUMS name to the list,
to which the Secretary replied that the
name had been omitte 1 at Mr.. Quin's own
request, The latter then begged the share
holders present not TO elect him. He was
interested in the scheme, he said, would be
glad to see it flourish, aud was willing to
work for it in other ways, but the heavy
responsibility and the arduous work of the
Directorate must be left to younger men.

not made known how the American
delegates voted on this matter, or
whether indeed, there were any dis

colonial church was the English pro-
posal to create a central consultative
body or tribunal of reference for the
entire Anglican communion, TO consist
of members representative of but one
order of clergy. This was opposed by
the American and some of the colonial
bishops, says The Outlook (New York;.

WHAT THE STOP WATCH SAYS.

1t is an axiom among racing men

appears and it's verdict is final.

on the business of the country. II
the movement of commodities slows
down the watch registers it. If the
speed of commerce is accelerated the
watch shows it. Here Is what the
watch says:
There is conside rable heavier live
stock movement reported for the month
when compared with preceding months,
and the season figures of eight months
show slight increase over the cores
ponding period OF the preceding year.
A marked Improvement is shown in the
freight car traffic practically all the
associations showing Increased traffic
for August over any of the preceding
months of the current year. Grain also
shows heavier movements when COM

lumber continue to indicate the I'M

months of the year, tho the figures
are still below the records made in the
volume of business for 1907.

THE LINEUP or 1896.

AS the campaign progresses 1t is be-
coming very evident that the lineup
of American voters is taking place
much as it did in 1895. Those who
are willing to take the risk of a
change in administration, who are
ready to chance any kind Of an ex-
pertinent in legislation, are attracted
to Mr.. Bryan because of his personal
ity, and because he breaches the doc
trine Of salvation for the commercially
oppressed. Those who have business
interests at stake or whose business
perception is clear enough to see that
employment for wage workers and the
present scale of wages are dependent
upon uninterrupted prosperity over the
whole country, are rapidly becoming
alarmed at the possibilities of disturb
ance, should Mr.. Bryan be elected
Mr.. Bryan is seriously embarrassed
councils Of the democratic party. His
PERSONAL choice for treasurer of the
campaign has been so discredited that
he has been driven out in disgrace, and
is in imminent danger of impeach-
ment by the people of the state of
Oklahoma. Tom Taggart. one of the
next high men in party councils. be-
cause of his influence in the doubtful
state of Indiana, is known to have
been interested in the gambling bust
ness He. was permitted to name the
democratic candidate for vice president
and now it develops that he chose the
lawyer who had SO ably defended his
gambling enterprises against the eff
forts of state officials to enforce the
laws of Indiana.
These are developments OF the cam
paign up to date. There is iFingey"
Corners, the saloon boss, in Buffalo.
and the corrupt Taanmany organiza-
and Sullivan in Illinois has been fit
tingly described by Bryan himself in
former campaign.
The political necessities of the day
have made it necessary to admit these
men to the first table of influence in
the democratic party, and Mr.. Bryan
is compelled to suffer disgrace for the
company he keeps, even tho no other
suspicion than that of being an OPP
lportionist is attached to his own in
tegrity.
Those things are lining UP the bus
mess classes against the democratic
ticket as they were lined up in 80.
And by the business classes is meant
not only employers, farmers and men
of business investment, but professional
men and salaried men who have the
proprietor class. These men include
the assistants in managerial depart
|ments, statesmen, clerks and those
property owning, skilled mechanics
who realize that business generally
must succeed in order to pay. wages.
aAll of these men who were thoroughly
scared at Bryan's unsafe policies in
'96 and who might have forgiven him
this time, are now frightened ut the
reckless and undesirable class OF men
who command the leadership of the
democratic party and to whom a presi-
dent would have to yield II elected by
their management.
