THE LIBERTY TO TITTER AND TO ABOTI1
VESELY ACCORDING TO TES DICTATES
OF CONSCIENCE WE PRIZE ASOVE ALL
OTHER LIBERTIES
Luoknow, November 3rd, 180t
THE SENTINEL ENLARGED.
With this issued of THE SENTINEL
we present to our readers an enlarged
paper, containing over ten columns of
reading matter more than formerly.
To make this change it requires a
large amount of extra work, as well as
aa increased expenditure, but we feel
&sauced our efforts will be appreciated
by our many readers. It is a long
telue,—longer than the great majority
• of our readers are aware—since we had
the honor of assuming control of THE
SENTINEL, and in now looking back
over our twenty-one years of editorial
life, and as a citizen of Lucknow, we
can express but one feeling of thank-
fulness and pleasure.
That we have not succeeded in
accomplishing as much as we would
desire, and that we have come far
short of making that success in
newspaper life that we would like to
have done, yet under all the cicum-
stances we have done the best we
could, and no one has seen or felt
more keenly our many shortcomings
than the Editor of THE SENTINEL
himself. It has ever been our desire
to publish a clean, readable paper,
devoted almost exclusively to the
local interests of the village and
surrounding country, and the best
passible proof that our efforts have
been successful, is the fact that the
circulation of THE SENTINEL has been
constantly on the inzrease, and to -day
our cir3ulation is second to no other
paper published in a village in the
Province of Ontario. But we want
more readers, and with our enlarged
paper and the continued be_ip of our
many friends who have done so well
for us in the past, our list of subscribers
should reach the 2,000 maik before
the new year.
We also take this opportunity of
bxpressing our most sincere thanks to
our uaerchants and other business men
for their liberal patronage in our
advertising columns, and expreas the
hope that our readers will not overlook
their announcements each week. We
are greatful to our correspondents for
their valuable contributions each
week, and to our many subscribers and
friends, we return our sincere and
heartfelt thanks for their 'confidence
and support.

A GREAT MILITARY TASK
Few people have any reasonable
idea of the task involved in mobilizing
and transporting 50,000 men from
Great Britain to the scene of war in
Soutla Africa. The assembling and
accoutring of the force is not trying
work, British officials being frequently
call on to deal with such. But placing
them in the field many thousands of
miles distant, provisioning them, and
keeping up communication with them
is another matter. The Naval Trans-
port Department of the Admiralty
has the business in charge. It is
respcnsible for the men from the time
they embark till they land at their
destination. It is said that 100
steamers will be required for this ser-
vice, and that many steamers will be
needed to carry supplies to them after
they are landed. When 20,000 men
were concentrated at Kassassin for
the attack Tel-el-Kebir in 1882, al.
though the distanee.from the bus at
Ismailia was only 22 mi:es, three
weeks elapsed between the landing
of the first troopship and the arrival
of the whole force at the scene of op-
erations. In this case there will be
twice,cas many men to be transported
to a much greater distance. The rail-
way lines will be under military con-
trol, and much will depend on keeping
unbroken the line of communication
between the British ports and the
scene of the fighting. For this pur-
pose the British fleet will be available
at sea, and no doubt ample provision
will be made to guard the railways
and routes by which Tommy Atkime
supplies will reach him at the front.
Britain is in the eye of the world just
now, and she will give it an object
lesson in military celerity.
THE INDEPENDENTS
Call Their Representative to Task.
(From the Tiverton Watchman)
The meeting of the Patrons of In-
dustry in the Tiverton town hall on
Tuesday afternoon last was not as well
attended as was expected. This was
due probably to the imperfect an-
nouncement made, also to the fact of
the day lost in attending the Laurier
demonstration at Kincardine the prev-
ious Saturday. However a represent-
ative, though somewhat small audience
was present for the occasion. The
purpose of the meeting was of course
to hear from the Patron representative,
Mr John Tolmie, an account of him-
self during his three years at Ottawa.
At about two o'clock the chair was
taken by Mr. Wm, Vallens, of Kinlnss
organizer of the Patron forces, who
explained in a few pithy wards the ob-
ject of the meeting, and ca!led on Mr.
Tolmie to address the assembly.
The black population of South Af-
rica is the cause of' considerable so-
licitude just now. The terrible wrongs
it has sufferel at the hands
of the cruel and predatory Boers
of the Orange Free State, and of the
Transvaal are not forgotton, and it
need not be wondered thas some of
the tribes wish to take up arms against
them, There is an enormous black
population in Natal, Cape 0Jlony,
Zululand, Swaziland, Basutoland, and
'Rhodesia, and it has not always been
easy to prevent tribes making war on
one another. Now the efforts
of the British residents ure be-
ing put forth to prevent the tribesmen
from arming and decending upon the
Boers! Doubtless by encouraging or
permitting the Basutos and their fel
lows to war on the Boers Britain
might make it very interesting for her
enemies, but the ,result might not in
the end prove advantageous.' Evident
ly her policy is to keep the blacks
quiet, to protect them, and to teach
them an object lesson through the
conquest of their oppresson. This
is at least in the interest of civilization.
Says, " The merciful man is
merciful unto his beast. Now it
is not very merciful to work a
horse when it is not in a fit
condition to do what is required
of it. Still we see it done ; a
horse with a rough course coat,
poor and thin, with perhaps a
slight cough, doing the work
which only a perfectly healthy
horse should be made to do. To
he ve your horses perfectly healthy
I would recommend you to use
Blue Grass Condition Powders.
These are made up from a receipt
of an old Kentucky horse breeder
who used it for years on his
stock. There is nothing better as
an appetizer and for Coughs,
Distempers, and to bring a horse
into good general condition.
You will do well to try a package;
25c. or five for one dollar.

The long suffering of the member
was then called to bat for the second
innings. He placed himself on record
as a thorough patron, more Liberal
than the Liberals, and pointed ont
wherein the Government had carried
out in several iristances the exact plat-
form as tbe Patrons, in which, natur-
ally, they had his entire support, On
the other haud,she had voted 11 times
in opposition. What chance had 3
members am:Mg 213, except by per-
sonal work among the members?
This course he had faithfully followed
but as for long winded orations upon
the floor, he knew by experience that
they were far worse than useless.
They might resolute till the cows come
home, and the only effect would be to
clean the house, or make themselves a
nuisance and a laughing stock. He
was in favor of bonusing railways but
strongly condemns the immense
amount of some of the bonuses. He
emphasized the reduction saved by the
reduction ofithe tariff which amounted
to over $3;1000,000, and showed what
had been accomplished since the
government came into power, H(3
claimed that in his course, he had con-
sciously endeavored to further the
cause of Patronism by the best means
at his disposal.
Mr. Marshall then continued his
former line of argument, He pointed
out several instances of extravagarlco
on the part of the government, saying
he had hoped better things at their
hands.
Mr. Tolmie had done right as far
as he nad gone, but hardly gone far
enough to suit hith. However with
the support of a few more Independ-
ents in the next parliament he expect-
ed t114t he would accomplish more.
After a motion was made and car-
ried that a series of meetings be
arranged for in the near future to be
held among the townships, at which
the questions could be more thorough-
ly thrhshed out, and the decision made
as to whether a canditate should be
put in the field, the conference was
called io a close.

Mr. Tolmie's appearance was greet-
ed with applause. He wasted no time
in preliminaries but knowing that his
conduct was under challange, plunged
at once into a vindication thereof.
His speech WU short, but much to the
point, knowing that his turn would
come again lauir on in the meeting.
Mr. Marshall, a patron repretent-
ative of the Toronto Sun then took up
the strain. He certainly made no
bones in differing with Mr. Tolmie's
policy since his return to Parliament.
He critized the latters statement that
the platforms of the two parties were
identical. The platform of the old
liberals was similar to that of the
patrons. but the party had drifted far
from the lines laid down ac the con-
vention of 1892. The old government
had been terribly extravigant, but
since attaining power and administra-
tion had run them very, very close
for second place. The Patrons had al-
ways opposed the railway bonnsing
of the late government, the Libvals
had not only continued the policy,
but had carried it to lengths undream-
ed of by their predecessors. Mr. Tol-
mie's couree of supporting such
measures was not in accord with the
principals of patronism,
