Conscription is 30 foreign to all our

The only way to get the better class
Is to offer them wages suficient to In

While wages in all vocations have
been advancing for the past thirty
years the pay OF the soldier has re-
manned unchanged. As q result there
has been every inducement for him
to remain out Of the army. It is not
remarkable therefore that while the
minimum for the army is fixed by law
at 10000 men, the number in the
ranks is actually less than 10000.

PROHIBITION SET A

The efforts Of the liquor interests OF
the country to stem the tide OF pro
hlpitdon scored their first victory the
past week. Friday the constitutional
convention Of Michigan refused to
pass a prohibition plank, and the leg
islature Of South Carolina refused to
pass an anti-liquor Law. these are the
frst setbacks received by prohibition
since the agitation in favor Of it be
came SO successful a few years ago.
The telegraphic dispatches chron-
icing the votes in the two state did
no contain any mention Of why the
prohibition cause was defeated. There
are probably two reasons for It. The
liquor men have organized to fight 1t
and have given assurances that in the
future questionable places will not be
co%untenanced by them: anu, again, the
cause of prohibition has been hurt by
some ct the rau4cals. who used the
reform sentiment to bring about the
enforcement Of distasteful closing and
prohibition measures.

Chicago Grain and Produce.
Chicago, Feb. 3.-The wheat mar
ket was extremely nervous during the
first hour, but the latter half of the
session was much steadier and senti-
ment was inclined to be bullish. Re-
ports late in the day claimed a much
better demand for cash wheat atsgen-
orally higher prices and strengthened
the market just before the close. May
opened A@A to M0hc higher at
96h to 96K, sold up to 96h and
closed a shade higher at SO.
Corn was weak early IN the day, but
the market soon rallied and continued
flrm. May opened shade to " to
&c higher at 50 to 69A, sald OF to
5sA and then advanced to 59h. The
close was a half cent higher at $685. to
58h.
Trade in oats was largely Influenced
by wheat and corn. May opened Ae
higher at 51MM. sold on to b0M' to BOX
and then advanced to b1h. The close
was at SIN.
The feature of trade in provisions
was the selling by local packers which
caused moderate weakness. "A liberal
increase in the worlds stock Of lard
for the month was a bearish factor. At
the close May pork was down IL to
10 cents at 312; lard was on 12h

The Gazette is first with the news.
It gives it to the readers Of eastern
