Sea Charles Tupper has arranged to address meetings at several points in Manitoba and the Northwest. Information bas teen received by the Dominion government from the imperial authorities that no second. contingent -will be necessary; therefore and. offer of a, second contingent has not been accept- ed. AT the nomination in West Peteaboro on Tuesday, Hon. T. R. Stratton, Pro- vincial Secretary, was returned without opposition. At the South Renfrew nom- inations on the same day, Hon. Ft R. Latchford, Commissioner of Public Works was nominated by the Liberals. Thos. A. McGarry was nominated by the Conservatives. The election in the latter constituency takes place on. Tues- day next. THE editor of the Termite Saturday blight expresses the mind of every true Canadian in the following sentence: "I believe in the foyalty of the Frennh- Canadians ; I believe in the loyalty of the Liberal party ; I believe in the loyalty of- the Conservative party; but I do not believe in the loyalty or patriotism of those who under present circumstances are impugning the loyalty of two-thirds. of Canada's population in order to enelres political capital and Parliamentary posi- tion for themselves. WHEN any great calamity occurs the people at first thought are disposed to try out. "It's the -worst that ever hap- pened," though it may be far from true, so it was not surprising that even in Menden, England, it Should have been said. after the capture of the Royal Irish Furisiliefs, the Gloucestershire Regiment and the Mounted Train battery, that no such disaster had. overtaken.British arms inthe memory of the oldest person liv- ing. There are two or three instances, however, in somewhat recent years when larger numbers were cut off or captured in Proportion to the force engaged. In the Afghan war in 1880 1,200 men were eat off out of 2,500, and the previous 'year at Isandlilwatta, Zululand, not far from. Ladysmith, a British • force of 1,- Z00 men with 49 officers, was wiped out of ei-istence, not more thau fifteen tar -twenty escaping. • • BELmonE.

Morgan Wood preached on 'War' in Bead Street Congregational Chureh, Toronto, on. Sunday morning. 'His text was James IV., 1, "Flom whence comes war and Vs:hangs among you! Come they not hence even of your lusts that war in your members?" Mr. Wood said that he knew of no bettor place to dismiss the question of war than at the comraunion table in the church and no better time thau the hour of sacrament. Daritigthe past fei'v weeks we have seen the peoplo of the two greatest civilized nations pay great tributes to the heroes of war. Savages do not know any better, but civilized uations should. The raovemeut against war is making rapid progress, h.owever. The progress of the world is evolutionary, and. the people of one imudred years hence will have higher standards tINU1 wo have at pre - Fent. Many of the teachings of the Old Testament aro diametrically opposed to those of Christ. An eye for an eye and. a tooth, for a teoth is unclnistian. The bloodshed of the Old Testament is not of God's will, as Be does not cause war, but allows us to bring war upon our- selves as object lessons. There are times when war is justifiable, but ouly in self- defence. No.war has yet occurred that has not been followed by arbitration, and this is what should take plaoe before hostilities are commenced. Although the community prevents individuals settling there disputes by force nations do so. The people do not declare war, and those individuals who cause the rulers of the people to do so are not the ones Who go to war. 'What ivied of Generals would these jingo politicians make? • They don't stand up for prin- ciple in politics, and it is questionable as to whether they would. do so before Maxim guns. The intelligent young man of to -day does not fight for patriot- ism only, but asks for information as what the issue is. That whici makes the people less Christ -like imd more wal- like is what we ought to decry, and it is sacrilegious for political leaders to thank . God from political platforms, as was -done two weeks ago in this pity.- It is wrong to pay tribute to God for victories .won, by either side. We often imagine 'the .Anglo-Saxons to be the chosen people to spread civiiization, but we are largely self -chosen, and any -war for so-called civilization cannot be. just in God's sight. The United States aye united in greed and rapacity Lor. terri- tory, but the tenitory gained cannot be compared to • the loss pf iife sustain:ad.
