.THEJJRITISIL .ELECTIOlf
Since our last issue the Liberal par.
ty tu Great Britain lute gained several
constitneacies.. The probabiiities new
are that Gladstone will be returned' to
power once more; but how long he may
hold offico,or whether he .can command
a working mejerity in the ominous, is
quite problematical. His own major
ity in Midlothian almost amounts to a
defeat, having been redueed from 4681
to 673. The eleetionsin Scotland have
been most disappointing to the Glad.
stonites, whether from sympathy with
the Ulster Protestants or owing to the
Labor agitation. Gladstone's views On
disestablishment may have hula good
deal to do with the losses sustained. in
Edinburgh, Glasgow, and other places
which before were Liberal strongholds.
One thing is clear that the Irish and
Scotch elections have been adverse to
the Liberal Unionist men. At latest
advices Gladstone had gained more
supporters, particularly 'in Ireland.
The probabilities now are that his ma
jority in'the Commons will be 40. Al
ready 621 members have been elected,
and such has been the result of the
elections during the last few days that
Lord Salisbury has called a cabinet
meeting this week to decide whether
to resign the seals of office or to ,await
a meeting of Parliament for final ac-
tion." The election of Sir Chas, Dilke,
of questionable notoriety, as the Liber-
al representive for Gloucester will
prove a source of embarrassment to the
Gladatonites. The number of &embers
noty reported are as follows: For the
Gorernment, 301; For the Opposition
321.
Since writing the above the situa-
tion in England has not materially
changed save that Mr. Gladstone's ma-
jority is slightly increased. It now
only remains to be seen whether Lord
Salisbury will resign at once, or wait
until Parliameut assembles and see
how the test vote will go upon the Lib-
erals moving an amendment to the ad
dress in reply to her Majesty's speech
from the throue. Under any circum-
stances, nothing definite can be done
by Gladstone in forming a cabinet un-
der a month or more. Meantime, the
Unionists are hard at work organizing.
in Midlothian in the hope of 'turning
Mr. Gladstone out on his. seeking re-
election as Premier. The clergy of
the Established Church of Scotland are
all working hard to defeat him when
he offers himself again for re-eiectton,
According to a recent despatch via
New York, the English boroughs sus-
tained Lord Salisbury's government
by a large majority, but the Countries
and rural districts went latgely for
Gladstone. It is Ireland, however
which has given nim the casting yote
-with the aid to some extent of the
English laboring classes. As the fig-
ures now stand, the government can
reckon upon 315 Unionist votes as
against 355 for Gladstone, with a few
constituencies to be heard from during
the week. Should Mr. Gladstone be
sustained in power he will find in .his
bitter experience that "uneasy lies the
head that wears a crown."

hold John Morley was rejected by an
()liar whelming majority. Whatever
may be the final result of the present
contest in Great Britain, there is little
doubt but that protectionist views are
bound to succeed, in which case pre
ferential duties in favor of Canada
and the other Colonies will be in order.
We are indebted to the London Times
for the full text of a report of the re-
cent London Conference touching Uni-
ted Empire Trade. Representatives
were present from Canada and other
portions of ;he British Empire -such
as Australia', South Africa, and New
Zealand. Four Boards of Trade from
Canada were represented, viz: Toronto,
Montreal, Halifax, N.S, and Vancouv-
er. Generally speaking, the various
Colonies are almost a unit in favor of
preferential trade relations between
the Motnerland and the outlying port-
ions of the Empire. Sir Charles Tup-
per, High Commissioner for Canada,
voiced the sentiments of the Dominion
-stating that, while Great Britain
imported two hundred million •pounds
sterling worth of products for annual
consumption, everything she needed
could be had from the outlying port-
ions of the Dominion. Canada, he
said, covered a much larger area than
the United States, and comprised one
third of the Empire. A large portion
of Canada was adapted to wheat rais
ing, and produced a larger yield and
better description of drain than the
United States. In Manitoba and the
North West territOry last year, the
yield was from 20 to 25 bushels of
wheat to the acre, In fa6t, the capas
bilities of that vast fertile territory
were only beginning to be developed

19,000 farmers in Manitoba alone had
last year produced 28,000,000 bushels
of wheat -over 14,000,000 bushels of
THE DUTY OF THE .HOUR,
Many thousands of Canadians feel
themselves capable of great things if the
opportunity would only present itself -
Thee, would take up arms for their
country if it should be assailed, they
would make great sacrifices to preserve
it, and they would die in its cause if
need should arise. But the great occas
ion does not come; there is no demand
for sacrifice; heroism finds no need,
either to do or to suffer. The trouble
with these young men is that they for
get something. They forget that he
who would serve his country or his
kind need never lack opportunity. "As
stars to night to souls occasion comes."
There is no day oehour or moment in
which he who desires to be useful to
others may not find employment. But
he must be content to do that which
lies next his hand, If there is no great
work to do there is small work to do,

ton. Fortunately it happensithat only
once in an age is an Alfred or a Bruce
or a Washington needed. But every
man who breathes the breath of life
me y do something every day to make
his country more prosperous and his
fellow -creatures more happy. The
small dnties of life make up ahnost the
whole of life's history. Countries arc
saved on the battle -field ; they are made
on the farm, in the counting-rootn and
on the vessel's deck. The Canadian,
pioneer who made a clearing in the for
est and built a log cabin did as much
for the country as the man who shot
down an invader at Lundy's Lane or
Chateauguay. The country has made
what it is by those who have built up
its material prosperity -cleared its
fields, constructed its railways, culti-
vated its farms, and performed all the
drudgery which has converted so much
of it from a wilderness into a home for
happy millions. The duty of Canad-
ians is not to wait for opportunity to
perform some great achievement which
will inscribe their names on the world's
great honor roll, but to go on calmly,
honestly, persistently doing their duty'
And let ui add that he who cannot and
will not do his duty in small things is
not likely to do it in great things.
