The expected has happened in Que bee polities. Mr. Monk and Mr. Tarte huve been running the conservative campaign, the one with the concur rence and good will of Mr. Borden, and the other with the concurrence and good-will of Mr. Graham, of - the Montreal Star. Sr The conservative party suffered a severe reverse in the last election through the race and religious agita- tions of thé Montreal Star, and pre- sent evidence points to a repetition of Shis' experience. © Mr. Tarte cannot restrain himself, He must be busy, he must lead, and he must have the aid of the Star. Mr. Monk is not in sympathy with these tactics, and has shown it by absent ing himself from the recent meetings which have been arranged by the eon- servative organizers. The difficulty is becoming acute. One or the other of the contending leaders will have to retire. Who will it be? Not Mr. Monk. He has earned the re- cognition he demands. He was the honored lieutenant of Mr. Borden at the late rallies of the party in Mont real and Quebec. The Tarte and the Montreal Star may form a combination of their own and run things to suit themselves, but it will not be to the advantage of the conservative party. That is cer- tain ! DIFFERENCE OF OPINION, There is evidently a difference of opinion in regard to the merits and virtues of the German surtax. The Montreal Gazette regards it as "the mont forcible evidence of the Laurier government's incapacity to understand anything connected with business." An importer of German goods, James Coristine, and a conservative, supports the surtax and expresses himself as satisfied that it reppesents a wise and judicious policy. Canada imports goods from Germany to the value of ten millions annually, while Germany takes products from Canada to the value of only two millions. Canada may want and desire German toys, says Mr. Coristine, but it can do with out its other goods. They can be ob- tained elsewhere, and there is, there fore, no occasion to pay the surtax. The Montreal Gazette, in condemning the surtax, condemns the protective policy of which it is a distinguished champion. All high taxes are design: ed to keep out of the country the goods which can be made in it to ad- vantage. The surtax is designed to operate against Germany because it aims to injure Canada on account of ita. British preference. Fault-finding is the stock-in-trade of the average man in opposition, and sometimes il is very wearisome. The sheers of the Montreal Gazette are not hurting the liberal government. They are, however, stirring up the conser vative merchants, and the declaration of Mr. Coristine, that he would rather support the interest of Canada than follow its lead, is tantamount to a repudiation. SPIRIT OF CONCESSION. The award of the Alaskan commis- sion gives the United States practi cally all it has been contending for, and leaves Canada, so far as the trade of the Yukon territory _is concerned, in a helpless condition for the time being. The action of Lord Alverstone, in signing with the Americans, whose presentation of the case was consider: ed very weak, is regarded as a con- cession in the interest of peace. The observation of an American print, the Chicago Inter-Ocean, is re- markable. It is that "the Alaskan tribunal was created to permit Eng land to preserve her self-respect, to get away from the Canadian question, and to consider the boundary dispute in a manner unbecoming the dignity of the British empire. In fact that tri bunal was largely a lever under which Great Britain could retire from an untenable position into which the had been forced by Canadian impor tuning." No American paper or di plomist is authorized, of course, to reflect British sentiment, and yet there are some who will regard the award as a declaration of friendship for a foreign nation which the circumstan- oes do not justify. The commission was an English pro- posal, emanating with the foreign of fico and as a result of negotistions with the U. 8. state department. The composition of it was doubtful from the start. It was evenly divided ns to membership. On the one side were three men who were pledged to stand pat by their contentions andl to sur vendor under any account. On the other side was the member who, for the sake of example, as an illustration of the vitally affected by the result, had but a partis] representation, and its commissioners will be thanked by their cotntrymen for their refusal to concur in the decision. Eventually the Yukon may be toler: saved the irritation which must be endured while its trafic crosses Ame rican teriitory is subject to cus- toms exactions. , These have been vexatious enough Yroicting the dispute; they may now be made insufferable and hasten the day, when a railway will end all depends upon foreign favours. Meanwhile the imperial idea has ro- ceived a serious strain. The mother country does not stand out in this case as the protector of her favorite daughter; on the contrary she appears to be a guardian who has heen more anxious to win the compliments of a friend than the affection of a rela- tive. Great Britain in the past made no mistakes and no surrenders in deal ing with the world through its diplo- mats. The easy defeat in the Alaskan case suggests a weakness in a depart ment of government where it should not exist. EDITORIAL NOTES.

This Is Trafalgar Day. On the 21st of October, 1805, Lord Nelson, Britain's immortal navat hero, won the glorious battle of Trafalgar, but with the sad loss of his own life. It is almost a hundred years ago, but the memory of that splendid fight and Lord Nelson's last signal to his men-- "England expects that every man will do his duty"'--will never be forgotten as long as the British empire lasts. The descendants of the men who fought with Nelson are ready to-day to fight for their country. Three Things To Remember.

THESE FISH ARE DUTY FREE, Despite Fact That They Were Caught in Foreign Waters. New York, Qct.. 21.--A decision of much interest to American fishermen engaged in business in waters adjacent to Canada was made by the Board of Classification of United States general appraisers, when it was held that fish taken at Bay of Islands, Newfound land, by American vessels under license from Canadian government, with the assistance. of men, boats, and gear hired for the purpose, are entitled to free entry. Fisk were imported in American schooner A. E. Whyland, at Boston, March 1Sth, 1902.

Rich Deposits Located On The Coast Near Teller. Seattle, Wash., Oct, 21.--Nome is ex cited over the discovery of valuable tin deporits in the J.ost River and Cape Prince of Wales districts. Well defined deposits of this metal have been found about forty-five miles up the coast from Teller. The discovery was made by two prospectors named Randt and Grim. The croppings are said to carry a much larger percentage of metal than is found in the famous tin mines of Cornwall, England. The ore also con tains copper to a considerable extent The discovery is looked upon as one of the greatest mineral finds of the year. At Cape Prince of Wales a fur ther strike of tin is reported, and this is said to be.one of the richest de posits in the world, SEWS WOUND WITH BOOTLACE.

Not having a pen kni'e, Clark made holes in his flesh with the tongue of his bel: buckle, and stitched up the wound with his bootlace. For several days he remained undiscovered--how many be is unable to say--and then his con dition had become so precarious that it was impossible to move him. COURTS 14 YEARS BY MAIL.
