interesting copy is obtained. The enlargement
of the pension scheme on German lines Is pro-
posed tentatively, and the effect of the patents
act in supplying British workingmen with em-
ployment is explained effusively. He is starting

establishment question over Sunday. lhere

has conferred with the Bishop of St Asaphs.

radicalism and know how necessary they are If

concentrating attention upon the German insur-
ance system. which is more comprehensive and
less demoralizing than the nom n-contributory
pension scheme now going into operation In
England, and also less expensive He has not
explained the neglect of the government to
master the details of the superior system before
committing the country to an inferior one.

He leaves unanswered the tariff reform argu-
ment that the home market may be even more
effectively defended and the resources of en-
poylnent for workers materially increased by
higher revenue duties. The success OF his own
legislation in bringing American and German
owners of patents into the kingdom manu-
facturers is a staggering blow to laisser faire
and a useful reinforcement of the tariff reform
movement.

until the end of the year in examining
900 claims for pensions and ascertaining
whether the applicants not receiving parish

acceptance of the public bounty. There is also
a close supervision by the Board of Agriculture
Of the operation of the small holdings act. under
which 100000 acres have been applied for dur
ing the last six months. To these admins
trative experiments is added the terrible prob
lem of dealing with the unemployed, which Is
heavily taxing the resources OF the local govern

workers in South and East London that there
has never been vast a horde Of workiess
people in the metropolis. and an unusually
calamitous winter is foreshadowed. l. y. F.

during the past week. He was en-.
gagged by the present owners of the
Italian mine 70 inspect that property

This mine has been under develop
ment for the past season. The in-
stallation OF large plant is consider
ed for the near future and the advice
OF Prof. O'Brien was desired in the
selection OF a mill as well as the mat
