making splendid Roadway in carrying
out the party campaign promises.
Though the house Is about four times

more difficult to WELD it has gene far
ahead Of the Senate in matter of dis
posing of important bu mess. The
house at once got down to business and
started the mill 10 grinding before the
Senate got half organized. The house
within few days passed the resolution
providing for election of senators by
direct vote of the people which was
followed by the Canadian reciprocity
measure both of which went to the
senate where they now slumber while
the senate meets, deliberates few
hours each day and adjourns. The
truth is that majority o! the senators
are opposed to the senatorial measure.
y good many of them Will retire if the
people vote .on them ana they Will
never vote for the resolution while
some will vote for it only under pres
sure Of the people of the states which
they represent.

The International Peace Conference
which met in the city of Baltimore las
week was most remarkable gathering
of the leading scholars and statemen
of the world TO discuss the matters OF
the most importance TO civilized ma
lions Of the world. Whilst there was
no definite action taken the discussion
will do much to bring about the con-
Summation SO devoutly wished for by the
people of the earth for these many
years. The meeting showed a determi-
nation on the part Of the leading men
Of nations participating to bring about
the end of wars among the nations and
for The peaceful settlement of differen-
ees by arbitration. This is something
which can never be brought about ex-
cept by the force of public opinion and
that is matter which must be cult
waited and developed by just such
meeting as that held in Baltimore. The
men who participated in the meeting
are of such character as to give the
matter weight and attract the atten-
tion Of the public and cause people to
think and to see the horrors Of war.

 l. Workers voluntaries, comprising Wives and widows, even non- salaried, of compulsory insured; salaried peo- pie earning more than 5000 and less than 5000 francs; small employers working alone, or with the aid of members of their families, or having one employe only.

 will pay their dues just like the French workers. The employers will pay their share, but the amount turned in by the latter does not go to individual credit of the worker, but is turned in to the national treasury, forming a special reserve. The foreign workers, therefore, at the age of 65 years, will receive a pension corresponding to the amount of their own contributions.
 foreign employer, doin~ business in France, will have to turn in the share for his workers and his ser wants.
 Complete infrmity, causing abso- lute lmposs1bility to do any work, the result of an industrial accident, en- titles the worker to a pension provid- ed in the law on accidents of 1898.
 If the infrmity is not caused by an accident of labor, but by one on the street, at home or the result of sick ness, the workingman or working wo- man has a right to a pension, at any age, proportionate to the amount con- tributed.
 To acquire the proportionate pen sion for invalidity the demand has to be addressed to the city administra- tion accompanied with a medical cer- tifcate. special commission inves- tigates these demands. The State adds to the proportionate pension as many times 10 francs as many years the petitioner paid his contributions
