Mr. Winston Churchill's singular
power of vituperation Le an inheritance
from his eattler. Lord Randolph's de-
nunciatione pi Mr. Gladstone quite
equalled his son's dialribes against Mr.
Chamberlain. But the father had wit.
He invented the plu-ase "old man in a
hurry"—it oecbrred, indeed, in an elec-
tion address—and the following is
specimen of his speeches. He is de-
scribing a visit paid by a deputation to
Mr. Gisestone at Hawarden Castle:
"They came suddenly on the Prime
Minister and Master Herbert, in scanty
attire and profuse perspiration, en-
gaged in the destruction of a gigantic
oak, lust giving Ins last dying groan.

ande adore, and having conducted

"Owing to the tremendous industrial

nalnely, a scarcity of fresh water," said
President Bentley, of the Royal Meteor-

In London the. other night.

PROGRAMMES FOR YEAR.
The outlook suggests interested ac-
tivity.
France's new shipbuilding programme,
which is now before the Chamber, com-
prises sixteen battleships, three large
armored cruisers, end fifteen smaller
armored cruisers, and of these three
battleships are to be laid down in 1906.
No definite shipbuilding programme
has been announced for Russia, but as
soon as internal affairs are more settled
it is fairly certain that a reeonstruCtion
of the navy will be undertaken.
The German NaVy Act of 1900 is still
being pushed rapidly forward, and the
work of replacing the older shifts of the
navy will be begun in 1906, when the
old Bayern and Sachsea will be removed
from the active Ilse and two new vessels
laid down in their stead. A supplemen-
tary bill, to allow for the coestruction
of six armored cruisers is before the
Reichetag, but in the meaptime there is
only one more of the 1900 programme to
be laid down.
BIRTH OF THE UNIONISTS.
In 1885 Lord Randolph became leader
of the Opposition in the House of Com-
mons.
"What will happen nowt" Lord Ran-
dolph was asked by a friend. "I shall
lead the Opposition for five•years. Then
I shall be Prime Minister for five years.
Then I shall die." In respect to the span
of his life , the words came itue almost
to the day.
Then came the Horne Rule Bill and the
Liberal Split. Mr. Gladstone had de-
livered the country an his opponents for
twenty years.
In the delicate negotiations that
brought the Unionist party into exis-
tence, Lord Randolph played a huge
part.
It was in- April, 1880, that the Unionist
Party, as we have khown it, had its be-
ginnings:
Early In the month Lord Randolph
persuaded Mr. Chamberlain and Loed
Salisbury to meet. The Turf Club was
the neutral ground selected. Thither
Lord Sellsbury repaired—not, as it ap•
pears, without trepidation and mis-
givings, and in the little dingy down-
stairs room where visitors are received,
was begun that strange alliance after-
wards so powerfully to affect the course
of history.
AFTER THE LEADERSHIP.
FEAR A FAMINE.
"So enormous is the drain upon the
water supplies, and' so much has . the
grewth en 'the cities caused a disappear-
ance of our forest areas," he continued.
"that there is good reason to fear a water
famine in the futtu-e. The diversion ef
rivers and lakes and other fresh water
reservoirs from their natural function
of Irrigating distributors of all essential
moisture to the land has Anterfered fa
England so greatly with Nature's ar-
mangements that the English engineers
and meteorologists at no distant dale
may find a laskage almost insuperable
difficulty aweitinheir endeavors."
Dr. Mill, the,,raintall expert, on being
consulted regarding this alarming state-
ment, said he was of the opinion that
the question would require an early con-
sideration. •
"Legislation will be needed in the
immediate future for the regulation et
levees," he stated. "The great question
is how to store water which at present
rune waste on the Coasts. The planting
Of trees on high watersheds is one of the
first aolutions oft he problem, but the
chief difficulty lie,s en the scarcity et
suitable 4and available for building
large reservoirs+.
REFORM IS NEEDED.
"I'believe that at some future date tho
servicee of engineeit will. be required in
this reform, as the present arrangement
of reservoirs is unsatisfactory, IQ A113-
tria the Geverntrieelt issues rue annual
report on the condition Ot the Danube
River, and also detailed statistics bf the
rainfall with the view of storing all
available water supplies. This work
done by the Austrian Govermatint I am
now doing in regard to the British Isles
on my own responsw.iity, but the rain-
fall and river conditions are only 11 Dor-
non of the much larger problein.'

cludes the cotnpletion of three baU,10-

In the Salisbury Government 04886
Lord Randolph was Chancellor of the
Exchequer. nut Ms reign was a short
one. Before the end of the year he had
resigned, and at the- same time had
finished hls °Metal career. The excuse
for the resignation was the impossibility
of making those reductins In expenditure
which the Charicellor desired.
But somehow, as one reads the bio -
g. aphy, one doubts whether economy
was more than a subterfuge. Lord Ran-
dolph was playing for the leadership of
the perty. He felt he was Indispensable,
He had beaten all the "old gang." The
time had come to try a fall with Lord
Salisbury, but he had miscalculated the
strength of his opponent. Mr. Chamber -
Iran agreed in thinlcing that, without
phurchill, the Government was doomed.
"You will have a hard time to go
through," he wrote, "your case will be
mine almost exactly, and 1 can tell you
it els a bitter pilgrimage which is In
prospect. The party tie is the strongest
sentiment In this country; stronger then
patriotism or even self-interest. But it
will all come right in the end for both
of us."
The hard time nine. For the rest ef
his political life this Ishmael of the

Hamilton, November, 30th, 1905.
In moving the adoption of the annual
report .Hon. Mr. Gibson said :—
Gentlemen,—Your Board of Directors
beg to express the pleasure they have In
being able to present the report to the
shareholders. During the whole history
of the bank, covering a period of thirty-
four years, this year would have been
the best and the most sue.eeseful that we
have ever enjoyed but for the unfortu-
nate Incident in conneollon with our
east end branch In this city, Had that
not occurred our net earnings would
have been 19.30 per cent. on the capital,
and notwithstanding that we had to
make provlaion tor that loss tho net
earnings of the year are 15A2. After
deducting the ions of 890,000 al-
ready referred to, our earnings
for the year are considerably great-
er than the average tor the past ten
yeere. In the period from 1875 to 1885
the rate of earninga was 10.1; 1885 to
1895, 11.03; 1895 to 1905, 13.98. I invite
the attention of the shareholders to the
fact that every dollar earned by the bank,
exrept what has been carried to rest,
has been paid to the ehareholders, and
that the misfortune of the peat year in
the east end branch is likely to fall on
the employes more hearty than upon
the 9hareholders, for, ' a9 you know,
though the bank has luid under consider-
ation, and it is still Its intention, to es-
tubilah a pension system, such has not
yet been begun.
During the year new agencies have
been opened at C,ollege and Oesington
etreete, Toronto; Toronto Junction, Oar -
berry, Kenton and Killarney, Man.;
Battleford, Sask.; and at Fertile, B. C.
While we have teen somewhat conserv-
ative in opening new branches we have
been endeavoring to strengthen those
where wn already have agencies. It may
be said that some of the places where
we have opened branches are small in
the matter of population, but It muat be
remembered that they are in growing
centree, surrounded by rich country,
and that the prospect fOr Increased busi-
ness In the future is very.bright. The
