The budget is promised next Thursday, and in the meantime a number of motions of more or less importance are being dis- posed of. Thu principal one this week was from Mr Dayis oi Saskatchewan, to the effect that a railway commission should be created for the, better control of the railways and Line more effective protection of the public rights and in- teresss. This has often been before the House in past sessions, but this time it carried without even a division. Sonic discussion took place on Tue" i day in Committee ot Supply upon the l cost ol Canada's exhibit at Paris, and l certain Opposition members took the) opportunity to belittle the splendid ‘ perition taken there by the Dominion) m competition with the world. Ot" course the purpose was to hurt the (loyernment if possible, but both the Minister of Agriculture and the Mini: 5th of Public works, came out.ofthe contest with honors, showing to the satisfaction of all lair-minded men, in. eluding many on Mr Speaker's Lett, that Canada got value many times on-r, top every dollar expended in the splendid advertising she received. The Opposition is loading up the Public Amounts Committee with all manner of inquiries but their hunt for stray.dol- lars will be about as productive as in the past. Since the Liberals took adieu in 1896, not a questionable transaction to the extent of even one dollar has been unearthed, and the records will show that the search has been diligent enough, had there been anything wrong to discover. EXPORT FRUIT Ixspmcnox. As promised last session, the Minister ot Agriculture has introdaevd legislat- ion to provide for the proper markinq.ot' Canadian fruit packed for export, and for the inspection of consignments so marked. The bill enacts that all fruit in closed packages, shall be of uniform size and quality, and with only a small stated percentage of detects, particular ot which shall be indelibly marked on each package, together with the full name and address of the packer. No package shall be so arranged that the raced or shown surface gives a false representation of the general contents of the package, and the minimum size in inches ot the trait is to be marked E with other particulars on the package. ‘ Provision is also made tor the inspect- ion by properly authorised omeials of all packages so prepared for export, and penalties, both ot tipes and impri- sonment are provided lorialse mark- Ing or " interference with the inspect- ors in the discharge oftheir duty. The act comes into force next July. J)f'aeFarlarte's The experience of the past has shown the need for such legislation, and it may be hoped and expected that no more will be heard of those dishonest practices which have done so much to injure the reputation of Canadian fruit in toreign markets. TRADE WITH AUSTRALIA. In view of the growing interest being taken in things Australasian. and of the increasing opportunities opening Ill) for trade between the new Common- wealth and the Dominion, the report just received from Mr Larke, the Can- adian Commissioner tothe Antipodos. is of interest and importanze. Mr Larke sayic--"A large number of agencies were arranged for Canadian manufact- urers last year, and in several instances considerable trial orders have been sent torward. I regret the result has not been in all cases satisfactory. I am not able to know whether the fault tfl'TAWA NEWS AND NUTE‘E. gray 6tore. a! has been in all cases due to the Canadian manufacturer. There are causes where letters were written which required an immediate reply, and none was received for five months. Goods arrived without previous advice. and drafts without either invoice or bill of ladmg. This is clearly the result of carelessness, and frequently prevents further orders being given. In other cases these defects Which arise from inexperience in foreign trade, bat which must be and the damages caused by them allowed for, or all chances oi trade are at an end. I have lust re- turned from examining a considerable shipment of goods from Canada, against which considerable complaints were made, The goods were well liked, bat the damages had reduced iiet class goods to third class, or even lowvl' in value. In similar goods trom Germany, which were also nested as these were, each article was packed in exeelsior, and in the packages It saw not one was injured. There is a large demand for these goods in Australia, and the, Canadian manufacturer can secure a fair share of it if the defects. having been fully explained to him, are remedied.“ It will surely be suffieent to call the attention of exporters to this com- munication, to prevent the recurrence of methods which must result, not only in personal loss to those immediately concerned, but also svriuns if not irreparable injury all future trade be Iween “iv two colonirs, Conditions in China change slmviy. but certain things an- known that help us to opppvoeiare Hu- extent of the calamity, and also to predict what the (and is to In Not less than one hund- red, and fifty prubuhiy two hiiiidn-(l Missiuimi'it-s haw- suiil-rcd martyrdom. The number of native Christians slain is very large. Some estimate 40,AO, but let us hope that the numbvr is not sogrea'. At the-lowest estimate, it is a terrible slaughter of China's best people. fr, is now known that lhm Ching Cheng, and Yuen Chang, two intelli- gens ulliciuls in the Chinese Foreign Ofiiee, refused to tyransmit the awful edict to Wassaere all foreigners' and changed it into 'Proteet all torvignerss.' On accountof this refusal, they lost their heads. It is also known that the “errors a- long the Ynngtsze- Valley entered'inte a compact with their Cnnsuls in‘Shnng- hai to protect foreign life and property. Several other Vieertvs and Governors and many minor officials have shown great kindness to foreigners, giving money, escort and facilities to escape. In Spite of the Empress Dowager’s command and the determination of the tvae.ti1nists to hare thesr eommands carried out, one innit cf'tge Empire rc- fused to obey. 1"his is prml'that the missionaries had not incited the hosti- lity of the mandarims as claimed by the Chinese Government and other unfriendly critics. Indeed in some cases, Chinese are today asking the missionaries to return to their field and work. There is no longer any doubt that the Boxers were in the emnloy of the Chinese Government. In Tientsin correspondence fell into the hands of the Powers. showing conclusively that the Boxers had sent in claims for their services in slaughtering foreigners and native Christians and that them claims were honorerl'by the Government. The country has become so farvquiet- ed that many missionaries llavoreturn- odto their fields in the Provinces near the Coast. and some have even returned to the Inland Provinces. The danger lIonan is, not now so much from Boxers as from famine. Three successive harvests have failed, and the fourth is certain to tail. The people have bo- cemo desperate and the country is in- fested with bands of robbers seeking loot or in any way to sustain life. One missionary now in China writes i-Oar native Christians have been sorely tried, bat we have wry great cause for gratitude in the faithfulness they have been able to maintain. ls it not marvellous that beiievcrs are being added even in such times as these? It is true in other places also, that men are being converted through the loy- altv and nobleness manifested bv the christians under persecution. Ifw‘i that as sure as God is in His Heavens, there is going to be a marvellous in- gathering into the church of Christ. when these troubles are over past. 1 cannot understand any man who has a true faith in God, giving way to despondenev because far more dread- ful than you at home will ever know-- but had many more been slain, it only make me more certain of the ultimate triumph of Christin this land. The Russians around Tientsin claim that the land upon which the blood of their fellow countrymen has been shed, has been made sacred by them. ;Christ's aceful claim upon this land l where If: saints have died for him, is i-far more certain ofrealization. - 'fiTiirrirh; Christ mast not and cannot go back on this undertaking! There is the right mug about these words. Satan makes desparate Strug- gles against the dessolt1tion of His Kingdom, but Jesus shall reign. R. P. McKAY.
