Moittreal, Nov, 1L -In a judgment
eompletely sustaining the suit of Dr.
George C. Workmen for wrongful dis-
missal from his position as it prefes-
star of the Wesleyan Theological Col-
lege, and for aggravated libel, and
pregnant with scathing condemnation
of the board of governors of that in-
stitution, as well as the various cora-
mittees before whom the ease wag
originally argued, Mr. justiee 'Wein

plaintiff damages for wrongful &suds.
sal and $1,200 for aggravated libel,
na,alcing total damages of $3,700.
jwige Weir characterized the actioe
of the board as "illogical, prejudiced,
biased and unfair," and stated that
“it was impossible to get any acur.
ate statement of the questions asked
or of the answers given before that
body unless. the version of Dr, Work-
man himself were accepted."
His Lordship declared that while
the charges against Dr,. Worlaaan
were based on his teachings in the
college, no evidence as to ouch. un-
orthodox teachiag had been giv,en,
• There had been merely a report of
Dr. Workman's appreciation of Prof.
MoBride's lecture, which. Dr. Work-
man had satisfactorily explained.
The judge oharacterized the fact
as unfortunate that the first libel
charge should have become legally
proscribed through the length of time
coniumed• in seeking redress before
t Church courts.
He was also very severe upon the
board for dismissing Dr. Workman,
characterizing their action as "ab-
solutely ultra vires and illegal." In
fact his whole address was a sweep-
ing denunciation. of the action. of the
Board of Governors, the Committee of
Trial, and the Ohne& Court Ap-
peal. Be defended Dr. Workman in
-every particular, and pointed out that
'"inealctdable damage had beenalione

is an ardent golfer and chess player.
A strong protectionist, the Umon-
ists -consider Mr. L &NV their raost per-
suasive speaker on tariff reform.
Therefore, the party will more than
ever be committed to tariff reform,
and expect that his leadership -will
infuse a strong fighting spirit in their
ranks. His selection, however, being
a compromise one, due to the rival
claims of more prominent leaders in
the party, is certain to engender much
dissatisfaction and it is impossible at
the present moment to predict how
events finally will shape themselvee.
Although an. official announcement
is not expected before Monday, all
the morning papers are agreed that
Boner Law will succeedBalfoune. 11.1,
his a,ppointxnent, ,they see tbe ch:oice
of an admirable leader who will at -
*act the interest and sympathy of the
Canadian people.
"It is not fanciful," says The Morn-
ing Pest, "to imagine that he may
be destined to win in the Mother
Country a great victory for the -cause
of national and Imperial union cor-
responding to the triumph achieved by
the Conservative party in Cnneda.
Unionists may confidently look to him
to display the same devotion. to prin-
ciples and the same resolution and
spirit in pTacing the policy of his
party before the electorate as marked
the successful campaign conducted.
byeBorden."
The Chronicle says; "The Canadian
is by Inc the ablest exponent el tariff
reform in either House. His succes-
sion to Mr. Balfour means, the sub-
stitution of it wholehearted zealot for
an ambitious eonvert, of boiling water
for tepid. The aew leader may be
trusted on all matters to keep things
at it high temperature."
"Boner Law," The Express remarks,
9s tha first son of our great domin-
ions to become the leader of one of
our great political parties. When the
direction. of Imperial policy is of such
critical importance as is now the case,
nothing could be better than the
choice of a son of Canada as Unionist
leader."

Boil Ropes Straight.
The best way to soften hay carrier
ropes is to boil them in wood ashes.
This is a formula forty years old that
has never been known to fail. Put
one-fourth to one -be -if bushel inenough
water to cover rope, say six to ten
pailfuls, according to the size of your
kettle. Boil it until you are sure that
it is thoroughly wet through, hang it
up to dry and leave it alone until per-
fectly dry. Then you -will have it rope
as soft and pliable as a tow string
and one that will give double the serv-
ice itt wear as one untreated- It will
pay any one to try the experiment.
