PACT BEFORE
CANADIAN VOTERS
Parliament Dissolved and EIeC-
tIOnS Fixed For Sept 2L
FIGHT WILL Be BITTER

Premier Laurier Acts Quickly to End
Filibustering Tactics of Conserva.
tVes In Parliament.
Obstruction to the reciprocity pact
resulted in the dissolution of the elev-
enth Canadian parliament in Ottawa.
Ont, and upon the political complexion
OF a new one that is to be elected
Sept. 21 will depend the fate of the
Taft-inspired trade agreement between
the United States and Canada.
AT cabinet meeting Premier Laur-
Ter decided to ask for an immediate
dissolution, and at once notified Earl
Grey, the governor general. A short
time later a special issue of the Off
cial Gazette was printed containing the
formal announcement and giving legal
effect to the edict
The proclamation was of a three
fold nature. 1t dissolved the present
parliament. 1t set the date of election
at Sept. 21, and the date for nomina-
tions at Sept. A.
For the ensuing seven weeks the
issue of reciprocity will be threshed
out before the people, and then they
will decide whether the Laurier gov
eminent shall be returned to power to
ratify the trade agreement which the
American government acceded to last
week. 1t will be the bitterest political
campaign in the Dominions history.
The announcement of dissolution
was fulhllment of Premier Laurier's
ultimatum delivered to the opposition
forces that continued resistance to a
vote would be met by an appeal to the
country.
The present Liberal government has
a large majority in parliament, but
the absence of a clOture rule has made
it impossible to secure a vote by
which this majority could adopt the
reciprocity measure.
In the event of the success of the
Liberal party at the polls in Septem-
ber the new parliament will at once
pass the reciprocity measure, whereas
a defeat of the Liberals will mean the
passing of Premier Laurier and the
permanent shelving of reciprocity be-
tween the United States and Canada.
This is the first time a session of
the Dominion parliament has been
closed without the appearance of the
goJernOr general in military state at
the senate chamber to give formal pro
rogation. AS the senate was not due
to reassemble until Aug. 9, and as pro
rogation could not take place without
both houses being present, dissolution
was resorted to.
1t is generally agreed that the cam
paign before the country will be bitter
with reciprocity as the sole issue, al
though the Conservatives in Quebec
may seek to inject the naval issue into
the contest. The anti-annexation cry
already has been raised by the Con
servatives in all parts of the country.
Sir Wilfred Laurier and his minis
ters will take the stump and conduc
platform campaigns in all provinces.

Russia Will Not Grant Site For Baptist
Seminary.
The statement of Rev. DR.. Russell
H. COnwell, of Philadelphia, and Rev.
F. B. Meyer, of London, England, on
behalf of the Baptist body, that they
intend to visit St. Petersburg and ap-
peal to Gear Nicholas to sanction the
establishment in st. Petersburg or in
Moscow of an international seminary
for the training of Baptist preachers,
has evoked a formidable rebuff from
the Holy Synod.
Not only will the czar not receive
them, but not an inch of ground will
be given for the seminary. The Holy
Synod explains that all concessions
made to others would be granted to
Baptists if the ministry of the interior
removed them from the lists of politi
cally subservive sects, but that they
were not regarded by the orthodox
church as forming a religion at all.
Meanwhile the prefect of Moscow

TRAINING IN GOOD MANNERS

likeness Is Bound to Become
Second Nature.

Long before ! had any sons Of my
ever had the training of boy,
should begin, as soon as he could un.
derstand anything, to teach him the
small things that constitute good man
ners. So many boys I have known.
and men. too. who at heart are good
and kind and really refined, yet lack
so large part of the little courtesies
that it is hard to believe they have
been well brought up. In most cases
it is the fault of the mother. She
feels that 1t is much more important
to form the character of a little boy,
that his manners can--wa4 till he is
older. The result is that one sees
boys and men who rarely forget to be
polite outside of their homes, and yet
seem to think it unnecessary to treat
their own mother in the same way.
My view is that there is no need
| to neglect the character because you
pay attention to the manners. think
have succeeded AS soon as my first
little boy wore trousers ! taught him
tina he must take off his hat as soon
as ha came into the house or when a
lady spoke to him in the street. That
he raust rise from his chair when
came at the dining table, must never
walk out of the room before lady,
and 1sll the other little polite ways we
like 10 see in men. 1t has never been
any trouble to keep him up to these
things; he learned SO young that i,
soon became second nature.-Harper's

Since the morganatic marriage is

The senator smiled.
However," he continued, "the king
evidently disapproves of morganatic
unions as strongly as the political
supporters of Adams disapproved of

"A western supporter of Adams
complained to friend that somebody
had been telling the voters that
Adams had married daughter of
George Ill, an untruth' which, he
averred, would lose Adams every vote
in the west.
If that is the case said his
friends, why not contradict the yarn
