The British cabinet laid before the commons recently a military butiget not «hly the 4&rgesft in England's England's history but which in form is said to • be without precedent _ for 200 years. - In fact, it is probably without real precedent in British history of public finance. For this budget is without estimate of amount of proposed expenditure either in details or in aggregate. It simply, liste purposes of expenditure, expenditure, such as the maintenance of an army of-3,000,000 men, and of a sea force of 250,000, and so on. As the Associated Press correspondent in London describes it: £ "The government government has invited the Commons to give it a blank check.*' The Commons Commons have done so by voting the nominal nominal sum of £1,000 under'^ach of the fiften items of expenditure.

Denmark is rapidly doing the same as she imports lundi fodder. In In the battle area the average life of a horse is six days. Such conditions as these mean that- the value of animals is bound to increase and it is up to the Canadians to meet these obligations and opportunities. Passing from the material aspects the speaker referred to the human side of the war. The British Isles have : been sapped of their best men who are : now serving in the battle field. Her | colonies must therefore produce more j material and food to supply this urgent ; demand from the consuming popula- | tion of the Mother Country, these j few examples justify such a campaign > and everyone should take stock of j themselves to see how they can do more and do better. Hon. Jas. S. Duff, Minister of Agriculture, Agriculture, said that one of the objects of such a campaign as "Patriotism and Production" was to bring before the people the seriousness of the present situation. Those at home, at their best, are not doing as well as the boy who has offered himself on the altar of his country. Much good is bound to coftie from the slogan "Made in Canada" Canada" if we only put it into every day practice. Indications point to a great influx of immigration into Canada after the war and we must meet the situation. Citing the prosperity of the French peasants after the Franco- Prussian war in 1870 the Minister predicted predicted the same conditions fmt Canadian Canadian farmers if they only lived up to their opportunities. From the citizen who has a small garden to the faimei with his many acres each should produce produce as a duty to King and Country, and nob just for the sake of the monev. The speaker praised the splendid work the ladies were doing through the Red Cross, Belgian Fund, and Patriotic Societies. Mr. S. E. Todd, Supt. of farms, Provincial Provincial Secretary's Dept,, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, spoke briefly of the great service Canadians can render the Empire in the development of agriculture and the increased production production of food products. It is only by united action these problems can be solved and it is up to each one to do his or her part. At the afternoon session Warden A. A. Col will presided and in the evening Mayor S. C. Hillier. Previous to the address at the evening session Mr. R, M. Mitchell sang a solo in his usual fine voice with Miss Helen Mitchell, accompanist. we toiled and struggled from day to day, Rich in love of his childish play; God to the parents was over kind, Perfect in body and health and mind. Though often we passed beneath the rod, We knelt in bur prayer, and thanked our God: For the staff on wliich we could rely When age had settled on She and I. Years came on and he .grew to be Tall and strong, and fair to see: True to the blood of parent's youth, Labor and love had borne the truth - And cur hearts grew rich with parental parental pride When we looked at his manly walk and stride, And often our thanks to God on high Were tendered anew by She and I. And the woe and want of feebler days Seemed banished from us, in his thoughtful ways, And the twilight hour, with rosy gleam To She and 1 was a pleasant dream.

KAISER WILLIAM 11. By Chas. M. Bice. Denver, Col. That we are engaged in a Titanic struggle, greater in its consequences consequences than the Napoleonic wa-is of our ancestors, -and one which will try our national fortitude and temper to the uttermost, eveiy thoughtful person will readily eon cede. It may be some satisfaction to know that this world-wide drama in which we are to play our role is nob of our : seeking, but whoever or whatever the cause, can now- cut but little figure.,: The great Areopagus Areopagus of the neutral nations, -those ;r us tees of the world s conscience, M-av-e already pronounced in no uncertain uncertain tones in our favor. Indeed, it is doubtful if there is a nation, on the face of the globe, great- or small, excepting subsidized Turkey, that does not hate the Kaiser and' his war methods. This war is the inevitable outcome outcome of -a. policy which bears the t itle of Real politick, and w hich first Prussia and then Germany has on for over 100 years of carefully sending colonists to a Brazilian Province, where they formed veritable German communities, communities, the Brazilians took fright, and informed the United States, who became greatly alarmed, as this act- seemed to infringe the "Monroe Doctrine,' ' and this was assigned as the principal reason for the great increase in the American Navy. which* occurred from 1890 to 1895. William II. The accession of the present Emperor Emperor marks a new era in the history history of Realpolitik, especially in relation relation to foreign affairs. Bismarck, while in control, confined German activity mainly to Europe, but the present Emperor -has extended German German influence far beyond, and one of his earliest acts was to -drop the old Stage- Pilot Bismarck, and assume assume the whole role of stage villain. villain. At first the German people looked with much doubt and apprehension apprehension on their new ruler. No one could guess what he would do next ! He wa-s an unknown quantity quantity and capable of springing any number of uncomfortable surprises on the people. They nicknamed him. the Roving Kaiser (Der Reise Kaiser). But to-day' he is in Germany 7 the supreme authority on - politics and all naval and military matters, and owing to his great versatility, there is nothing on which he does not assume assume to lay down the law. He is a Nero in vanity if not in cruelty, and his egotism soars beyond beyond all limits, and yet this man is permitted to deal with the destinies destinies of millions of people not alone in Germany but- throughout the world. True, lie may be the victim victim of a system, but- he is also its executioner. Brought up in the Mediaeval doctrine of the "divine right of kings,; ' no other ruler has ever "placed "himself so nearly on a. level with the Divinity. Americans have- not forgotten his attempt to rally' the countries of Europe against the United. States in the recent war with Spain, nor have they condoned the meddler some ness of the' Kaiser's fleet in Manilla Bay when Dewey captured that city.
