English Politicians Look For An This Week's Budget Disclosures. New York, April 27.--The Tribune's London correspondent cables: What will probably be the last free trade budget in England will -be dis- closed next week, and the politicians {will know whether a general election will be forced this yéar. The Economist, makes the novel sug- gestion that the remmant of the exist- ng land tax, yielding £700,000, can. be tieated away by compulsory redemption, | Jf and from £16,000,000 to £20,000,000 can be obtained from it in the course of two years. This expedient would re- lease the taxpayers from their tem- porary burdehs ahd abolish the charges sellers. It would clear the ground for fhe new system of valuation and. taxa- jon on which the radicals have sect their - hearts, and would remove the justification for a rejection of the bud- get by the Lords. The opinion prevails'i in the smoking- room at Westminster that the budget will be lesse sensational than has been expected, and that the government will remajn in office through the year, Welsh disestablishment is a form of window dressing for the nonconform- ists, Financial and naval policies alone count in practical politics. The naval inquiry respecting the nation's readi- ness for war strengthens the position of the government, Lord Charles Beresford has acted with dignity and patriotism in present- ing the case before the secret Cabinet tribunal, refraining from panic-mon- gering. A most remarkable speech on naval subjects is from a rising hope of toryism, F, E. Smith, who has con- demmed the belligerent right of seizing an enemy's ships in war time, and vir- tually has become the champion of the American principle of inviolability of private roperty at sea DR. NATHAN Po MOSSELL, The niedical 4directdr of the Douglas Memorial Hospitals who plays an ime portant part in the"Stdwmping out of the tuberculosis William Mackenzie. Toreito Star. Wiliam MacKenzie, the magnate of the Canadian Northern, ; taught school as a young man. The story goes that he liked the job very well, but even then there burned with- in 'him the idea that it was a good thing to have a few dollars in one's pocket. So he asked the trustees for a raise. He was getting $400 per an- num, and, he. would have been content with $450. But the trustees couldn't see it, 3 "That's more money than anybody's worth," they told him, "All right," said he. "The job's vacant. You can get another teacher." They got another teacher. Now, the question. is this--suppose they had pai him the salary he'asked for, would he have heen teaching school even now: Perhaps he would have made such progress that by now he might have been a high school principal or a public school inspector. But in that event would Toronto have had a better or /'a worse street car service, and who could Sir James Whitney have persuaded to accept that two million acres of land up in the clay belt? railway Settlement In Dire Need.
