Warner were wanting to
proem re to Canadians that our present
o"vern;6aent • ar e not " flies on the
evlieetsi"it is the introduction of a re-
visedl tante :moulded to suit the
,changing circumstances of this coun-
try. So much has the policy of the
present' Cabinet recommended it-
self to the public that the Mil, and
esthete Opposition journals, that for
Years past have been bitterly oppgsed
tethe Conservative rule, are now coin-
ing round and have had to acknow)-
'edgy that "important reductions in
td'uty had bees made" by the revised
riff—and that"from a business point
ef''Kew it was to be commended." And
ft /here is one class in the community
what will be materially benefitted by
the new fiscal arrangements, it will be
the farmers, Our readers are aware
that the one chief cry of certain lead -
:Mtge politicians—such as Cartwright,
Laurier, Dalton McCarthy and Charl-
ton—was that the present Government
was the slave of the manufacturers
who in the euphonious language of
:Sae Richard were nothing bat "bloated
robbers." The aim of our Government
zeas never been to favor one class at
the expense or sacrifice of other classes
—their aim as public servants has
rather been to promote the general in-
terests of the whole Canadian people,
tt speaking more particularly of the
revised tariff,—while the past policy of
tine present Administration has aimed
all along to preserve the home market
for our own producers, as . well as to
lbwer or admit free the chief articles
that farmers and operatives consume,
the beauty of the revised tariff consists
in making it largely a farmers' rariff.
That class has been consulted with by
the present Cabinet al] oyer the Do_
minion. Dirties on necessary articles
of daily consumptiou have beeu either
largely reduced or admitted free, while
protection has beeu extended to all
sorts of farm produce to meet the de
wands of the agricultural classes. In
addition to this, with a view to Freer
th°ade relations as between Canada and
the United States, a provision has been
Inserted in the new tariff Act for inter -
'national reciprocity—to this extent
that the United States, or any other
eountry that wishes to reciprocate, is
allowed to send free corn into Canada
on their admitting Canadian barley
free. So much indeed have our Gov
ernmeut evinced a desire to meet all
reasonable demands, that now the cry
€ the Opposition is " they have , stolen
cur clothes." What more could be
asked or expected of the Government
than has already been conceded—our
tea, coffee, sugar, are admitted free;
natty on cottons and woollens material-
gy reduced; agricultural implements
will only bear about one half the duty
Haat they did before; wire for fencing
purposes greatly lessened; and, goner
ally speaking, while the free list has
been largely extended, an important
change for the better (which the To-
ronto Mttil is now compelled to admit)
has been to substitute ad valnrerra for
sgccific duties. This, of course, will
cause a considerable reduction in the
revenue—which, according to the
Nail's il's admission, will probably reach
somewhere about four million dollars
--]rut now that our chief public works
;.,renearly completed, and with the
proposed reduction on public expendi-
ture, it may safely be affirmed that we
ehall still hare a surplus of revenue
ivistead of deficits as formerly under
the Liberal regime.
'7zice more is the Government to the
fore as a farmer's Government. When
the tariff was first brought down pork
was, put upon the list art an ad valorem
aate. It was pointed out by Conserva-
tive members that this would be less
eproteetive to the farmers and hog rats-
- else: The consequence has been that
the specific duties havenow been re-
turned by Mr 'Foster upon pork and
lard. This will have a good effect all
the time but a specially good effect
whenthe prices: of then products are
very ]ow in the United States,
TIP. 0 VIEWS,
A year ago Mr. ]bi'cCarthy moved
chat the Government of Canada be con-
elenmed for not at once, without a nio-
htfiientl's delay of ins; airy, setting
'Gout the work of tariff revision,
This may be seen in his 'resolution
Auk Ite presented to the hoose during
That session, This year Mr: McCarthy
rigid not 'hove a resolution, but he made
at.lerig speech,bur readers will be
eterprised 'le know that he, in that
,lieeeeh condemned the Goverlirnent for
touching the tariff before the people of
of the Country had had an opportunity
of voting upon the question at ,a. get
oral election. He offered no explana-
tion whatever aa to bis change of
opiuiou; indeed, he had no explanation
to offer. Tris desire was under any
and every circumstance to find fault
with the party inpower, and it didn't
make any difereuce to him whether
he made himself ridiculous or not.
Since Mr. McCarthy joined the Grit
party he has travelled a tortuous road.

TeM FUTURE OF ALUMINIUM.
It fill Entirely 1Lovolutionize the Stud
of metallurgy.
lean article on the •'Past and Pres-
ent of Aluminium," translated from
the Revue dos Deux Mondex, the author,
M. J. Fleury, says:
The brightest promises for the future
of aluminium are offered through the
electrical processes. When the flame of
the voltaic arc is turned upon a mixture
of pulverized mineral and charcoal a
fusion takes place, and the metal, re-
lieved by dissociation, flows out fluid,
limpid and brilliant. So fine a result,
however, can be obtained only under the
most favorable conditions, to secure
which, not always with certainty, great
pains are required. An easier- process
is to turn the voltaic aro, not upon the
pulverized mixture, butupon a bath
of mineral substances which have been
previously brought to a condition of
igneous fusion, as is done in the Cowles
electrical process. Complex phenomena
are then produced, both calorific and
chemical. Important factories have
been established for obtaining by the
process both pure aluminium and its al-
loys and other metals, particularly with
iron and copper, By it the company at
Pittsburg obtained almost chemically
pure aluminium from the crude bauxites
and corundums of which considerable
quantities have been discovered in the
northern United States- The factory.
at Neuhausen utilizes a part ° of the
falls of the Rhine at Schaffhausen for the
propulsion of powerful turbines which
directly work the dynamos whence elec.
trinity is obtained for the production of
aluminium and its alloys. Important
manufacturing centres have also been
established in England and Germany,
and theme are some in France.
By these new methods, which are still
susceptible of improvement, a consider-
able saving over the old purely chemical
processes is gained in the treatment of
the minerals. In either case the chief
effective agent is heat. and it is utilized
far more completely in the electrical
furnaces than in the older furnaces,
which were subject to many cooling in-
fluences. Not more than 400 grammes
of coal burned in the furnace of esteem
engine driving .a dynamo will produce
electrical energy sufficient to isolate in
a molten electrotype one kilogramme of
aluminium. More than 20 times as
much would have been required in the
old chemical process. By virtue of this
better utilization of heat, with greater
perfection in the equipment and man
agement of the shops, the price of alum-
inium has continued to decline, till it is
now very near the point when the metal
can be profitably applied to the fabrica
tion of many articles.
The alloys of aluminium now occupy
a high position in practical industry.
Aluminium bronzes and platings, light-
er and more tenacious and more resist-
ing than copper, and conducting heat
and electricity better, will take its place.
The new shops are also working for the
production of cast and malleable iron,
and they are in request by smiths for
refining cast iron and steel.
The metallurgy of iron is now an ex-
act science as well as an industry. In-
formed by analysis of the exact compo.
sition of the elements that enter into
the fusion -bed, and of thecharacter of
the products at each moment of the op-
eration, the metallurgist can determine
with accuracy what he must eliminate
and what add tel give his product the
quality required for the use to which it
is to be put. A few hundredths of an
alloy will decide what: it shall be. A
little chromium will render artillery
projectiles proof against breaking;
nickel increases the resisting power of
sheathings. Introduced at the right
time into the Bessemer converter or the
Martin furnace, a small portion of the
alloy of iron and aluminium communi-
cates to the melted metal a fluidity
which facilitates the disengagement of
the gases that would otherwise remain
imprisoned in the metallic bath, pro-
ducing blow -holes, and destroying hom-
ogeneity and resistance in large pieces.
Changeable,,(,'tgaring for Bicycles,
This invitation relates especially to
the driving gear of safety bicycles, af-
fording a convenient differential gear
mechanism by which the speed and
power may be changed at will without
dismounting. The construction is sim-
ple and substantial, and also provides
a positive and easily working arrange-
ment for turning one of the sprocket
wheels on the pedal shaft faster than
the shaft itself. By, the simple move-
ment of a lever the gear may be shifted
to or from either one of three positions,
the first being the normal position, the
second one in which the gear works
slower and with greater power, and the
third position giving greatly increased
speed.
This device consists of two open links,
one split longitudinally to form a pass-
ageway for the other, and each of the
links having at both ends inwardly ex-
tending arms, a pivot connecting- two
corresponding arnis, It requires con-
siderable skill to open and close the
links to insert or remove a key, thus
preventing their accidental displace-
ment or removal by unauthorized per-
sons.
A supplementary key adapted for use
in connection with i3crew keys, whereby
the latter may be more'quickly and con-
veniently turned than with the fingers.
Instead of the half turn only, at one
effort, the screw can, with this improve.
ment, be given a complete turn with
each twist.
lilectro 'Vapor launches.
Among the various applications of the
modern gas and oil engines is in the pro-
pulsion of launches, special nlodifica-
tiotis of the machines being made to
successfully meet the requirements of

'ward heated in a vaporizer kept hot by
the exhaust gases. The ignition also
was effected electrically, the 1 iatterybe
