BRITAIN AND FRANCE.
A good many years ago two mea
got into a wrangle on the market, says
exchange. The one who had been
making the most noise started to pull,
his coat nff. The quieter man did not
follow suit with his own coat, nor did
he wait for his opponent to complete
the operation of stripping for action,
but just at the moment when the
noisy fellow's arms were held back by
his coast -sleeves the quiet man planted
a blow on the noisy *man's nose•that
sent him to the earth and put 4
simmer', end to the discussion. Great.
Britain is all ready for war. She has
ships and men and money,* and the
leaders of both the pelitical patties in
thecountry are in harmony with
regard to . the proper policy on..tlie
Fashoda question. trance is not
ready for wars Her Government is
unstable. Her finances are not in
good condition. Her navy is inimeas-
urablf weaker than the navy of Great
Britain. France has no 'allies upon
whom she could depend. for hnroediate
assistauee, What sliduld Britain do
under the circumstances -I .Lound
France when she has 'her' at a. disad-
vantage, or wait until France gets hor
cat off? Great Britain has not been
the disturber of Europe for a long
time. Her policy haa been peace-,
and under the policy of minding het
-
own busineis she has thriven: So
-long as there is a chance of peace
being maintained, Britain is not likely
to strike the • first blow. She is
-Willing to advertise to the world the.
faet that she -is not defenceless. She
proposes. to Maintain her rights on
sea and on land, but France need
have no war with Britain unless she

COUNCIL
Button & Trevett Want The Loan
Extended
To the Counci4 (1 the -Killage (1
Lucknow.
GENTLEMEN,—When our firm pur-
chased the Lucknow Furniture factory
we were given t� understand that the
ratepayers of the villaee would be
willing to extend the time for pay-
ment 'Of the loan granted to; the tins
of Cliff FOrSter SOBle seven years ago
to encour ige and enlarge the man-
ufacture of furniture in this place.
This loan was given for a period of ten
years, Messrs. Cliff Forster agreeing
_to pay back _the principal in install-
ments of $250.00 for nine years and
the balance of $2750.00 at the ex-
piration of the tenth yesr. Our
understanding was to have le time
extended, that instead of paying off the
$2750.00 at the. end of- the ten years,
that we continue to pay $250.00 per
annum uutil the whole amount was
paid, the whole'of the payment being
complete at the end of the twenty
year period for which the money was
borrowed by the village. We uuder-
stand that in accordanee with the
above a nuisserously signed petition
was presented to your honorable body,
praying that a by-law be submitted to
the people with a view to haviug the
Joan so extended, but it was laid over
for future consideration as many con-
sidered it unnecessary to bring the
matter up until the flea period of tee
years had expired.

We admit that this was a very reas-
onable view to take of the matter and
under most circumstances a -proper
one, but our position at present ie
perhaps an exceptional one, being of
such a nature that we scarcely know
how to proceed until we know whether
or not we are going to get an extention
of theloan. Our position is this :—If
we are going to get an extension, we
purpose moving over a lot of our Tees -
water plant and enlarging our premises,
and as a result einploying more men.
If we aro not going to .get the ex-
tension, then we will have to do with
our present premises and sell all we
can of the Teeswater machinery, etc.,
order -to provide for the payment of
the loan which falls due in about two
years.
Should it be that the loan is not ex-
tended, we would have to cramp our-
selves in order Co provide for the pay-
ment of the $2750.00 falling due so
shortly after starting here. Our object
in coming to Lucknow was to 'place
ourselves in a position to compete
with firms 'who are assisted by the
towns and iillages in which they are
situated, and we put every confidence
in the people of Lucknow that they
will give us the desired extension of
time, which will). to sorae extent place
us on a footing with other firms. We
do not wish to keep on the two fac-
tories and will not entertain any
proposition the Teeswater people may
make, provided we get what we
expected to get when we took hold of
the Luckuow factory. There is an
increasing demand for the kind of fut-
niture we manufacture, both in Can-
ada and Great Britain, aed if we can.
enlarge our plant we can manufacture
for both markets, do a much larger
busidi-ss and as a consequence employ
more men, which would be a mutual
advantage to the village and ourselves.
We trust therefore, gentlemen, that
you will submit the necessary by-law
to the ratepayers as soon as possible in
order that we may know what to do.
Our Teeswater business is now in such
a shape that we can move over here at
almost any time, but don't feel like
moving anything before the by-law is
passed.

the sad affair, was prostrated with
grief. She clung to the cold form of
her husband and was inconeolable.

DROWNED IN THE PLUNGE
Sad Fate of' Robert Robinson at
Thornton Springs
The following article on the death
of Robert Robinson, brother of Mr.
Fred Robinson, of this.village, is taken
from from a Butte City paper, Mon-
tana :—
"Robert Robinson, 1k carpenter at
the Greert Mountain mine, was
drowned early yesterday morning in
the plunge at Thornton springs, six
miles west of this city. As soon as
word could be brought to the city; the
coroner was notified and at 4.30 o'clock
the body was brought to this city in
charge of Undertaker Sherman, and
.later in the day removed to the family
residence in the rear of 632 East
Broadway.
Saturday evening. about 16 couples,
young and married,- congregated at
Mr. and Mrs. Robins -411's home to
spend the evening in social converse.
The party concludeid to drive out to
Thornton Springs to have a dance.
About 1.30 o'clock, after supper, a
dozen or more of the titen repaired to
the plunga to enjoy a swinz. The pool
is about 40 x 20 feet and five or six
feet deep. There was a dense steam
arising from the pool and one could -
not distinguish another the length of
the plunge. The men were enjoying
themselves and having a royal good
time, when George Nevin, brother-in-
law of Robinson, asked: "Where is
Bohr. meaning rt. Robinson. Mr.
Robinson, like., Rh& companions, ran
from the dressirTrusm and dove into
the plunge. Tiede eas the last seen of
him, although mite fuirtion was paid
to him as all hadt ing Amitsi the pool in at
te
like manner.-
Nevin asked
sit oo
where Robinson outvic the others
naturally began to itlok about, and not
seting him, the search began in earnest.
llis companions dove to the bottom in
several places, and John Wilson was
the one to make the horrible discovery
that their companion was drowned.
At first it was thought that the man
could be revived and every tnetliod
