NOTES AND COMMENTS.
Mr. McLaren, Huntingdon, will intro-
duce the resolution of last session to pro.
hibit the importation, manpfacture and
sale of cigarettes in Canada• It was Mr.
Bickerdike who had cbarge of it . late •
year.
Canada has uo monopoly of severe
weather. A report of the weather
bureau for February, 1904, show's that
the mean temperature of the mouth at
New York was 25 degrees, which is six
degrees colder them the (.fiteiat average
of the mouth fur 34 years. A U. S.
Government l utletin states that the
period of uninterrupted cold weather
inelndiug the last three months at
Washington has not been equalled siuce
the weather bureau obat:rvations began.
Wd are (laity receiving from the Tory
organs tributes to the exet'lleney of the
moderate L.beral tarot: they have so
long and bitterly cuiideniee 1. The he
test is the Mail's story of the purchase
by United States capitalists ot the Muir
treal locomotive works, et whiter 2,000
men are to be employed. The Tory or-
gan says the Cauadiau tariff ltd to the
purchase, and it quotes President Oell:t
way as sayiug that the American It come•
tive works found that with the duty
against theca they were unable tri do
any large atuonut of bnsint,ss in Canada,
and therefore they were glad of the op-
portunity of merging the Moutreal Com-
pany into their own. Score another for
the moderate Liberal tarifr, and send the
news to industrial Canada, the subsi-
dized whiner for higher duties.—Hamil-,

Seasonable Easter Gifts.
Eaoli year finds the custom of ex-
changing gifts at Easter more wide.
,spread. Unlike Christmas presents, iu
which wide latitude is allowed, the
Easter gift should be both dainty aud.
seasouable. The scent sachets, so popu-
lar for Christmas cards, have reappeared
in charming guise for Easter. They are
decorated with all the flowers that bloom
in the spring end tied with ribbons to
match. There are, too, unique little
sachets of satin in the shape of a lily or
pansy. A novelty which will find favor
is a basket of colored tissue paper re-
sembling a big chrysanthemum. Its
long leaves are meant to conceal Easter
eggs or bonbons. Tiny potted ferns set
in cups of crimped and painted paper are
just the thiug for an Easter greeting.
Some of the cups represent Easter lilies.
Decorated chiva violet holders aro an-
other pretty suggestion. Seasonable
gifts which may be used for Easter will
be found among the art linen, traveling
cases, steamer pillows, fancy silk bags
aud the new washable cases for turnover
collars. New and beautiful designs in
china are adaptable both for Easter and
wedding presents.—Pittsburg Dispatch.
DEALING WITH THE LIQUOR
TRAFFIC,
Note Your weight
By noting your increase in weight
while using Dr. Chase's Nerve Food yon
can prove for a certainty that new firm
flesh and tissue it; being added to the
body. This is the severest test you can
apply to any treatment and proves the
superiority of the great restorative pres-
cription of Dr. A. W. Chase, the famous
Receipt Book author.
(Toronto Globe.)
The most important question, and
the most "difficult of solution, before
the Government and Legislature of
Ontario. in the proposed legislatiou
dealing with the liquor trttffio. The
very nature of the traffic, Ile it exists
in this country, its rotations to the
soaiat and moral lift of the people and
to the exigencies. of both political par-
ties, and the course and history of
agitation with refcreneo to it, makes
it at once highly' important, and ex-
tremely difficult.
Th:: whole. situation cannot be eom-
iwssed by surveying it either from the
standpoint of the extreme temper-
aloe reformer or front the standpoint
of the party politician. The supreme
interest at stake is not a theory, of
social reform, however excellent, or a
consideration of political partyism,
however important, but the best in-
terests of society and the greatest
good to pr:vato and'pablie life in Can-
ada. What the best citizens are Most
concerned about is not that this the-
ory or that should be embodied in leg -
ale lion, but that the Legislature
should do what is best in a difficult
situation, fully 'and squarely facing
all the conditions now obtaining in
the province. A quarter-century
hence the men of that day will deal
with. the situation as it will then pre-
sent !itself.
TWO tines of procedure have been
weed by men ot the highest intelli-
gence. and Che utmost public spirit.
One is an improvement of the licees-
ing system, reducing the number of 11-
ce'nses, increasing The fees, simplify-
ing the procedure against violators of
the license laves, making the regula-
tions more stringent and the peaal-
ties heavier. The other is the pro-
hibition of the sale. of intoxicating
Iigtuors for beverage purposes to the
utmost limit of proviucial powers.
Temperance agitation in Ontario for
more than a generation has had to do
for the moat part with one or otner
of these two proposed solutions of the
temperance ,question During recent
years there has been taking shape an
opinion, which, with many wise are
neither ill-informed 'nor prejudiced,
bas become a deliberate judgment,
that neither of these proposals meets
the situation now presented in On-
tario. Certainly the licensing system
has, by'ien; and varied experience,
proved itself to be hot the final solu-
tion of the problem.
in the very nature of .things, be-
cause; of the distinctive. character of
private traffic in intoxicating liquors,
and because `of the, growth and ac-
tivity et public opinion against such
priv•.tte traffic, the licensing system
bas at best been( but an indifferent
,succuss and at worst but an, niter
failure. We license the safe of intox-
iccuts. making the, fees increasingly
heavy and the conditions increasingly
difficult; we make it necessary .for
the license holder to push his trade
in order that his business may be pro-
titabie, and by strengthening public
.sentiment against his business we

London, 1tTarcll 16.—The Govern -
twit t
over>7-meat was defeated, in the House of
Commons yesterday afternoon by
141 to 13u votes on a motion of
John Redmond, the Irish leader, for
reduction of the Irish education
estimates, As it was in the nature
of a snap clivisiott, engineered by the
Nationalists, the Government refus-
ed to resign, put it was regarded
as another straw showing the direc-
tion of the Winn. Mr. Redmond's
motion was made With- the object
of calling attention to Irish grievan-
ces. The divisio'i was taken almost
immediately after the commencement
of the discussion when the Liberals
and Nationalists were in strong
force. The result was greeted with
great cheering, especially front the
'visit benches.
The Opposition iiiinledietely moved
to r'epor't progress. Premier Balfour
opposed the niotfon. kle admitted,
amidst much laughter, that it was
obvious the Government had been
defeated on a proposal to reduce ro
vote by $500, but there was a con-
siderable amount of financial busi-
ness to be transacted before March
31, and he did not sec why any
time should be wasted.
Mr. Balfour added that the honor-
able member had succeeded in re-
ducing the vote for Irish education
by $500 and the Government accept-
ed the opinion of the House one the
subject,
Mr. Redmond retorted: "We have
defeated the Government."
It was then that Mr. Redmond
moved to report progress. This was
defeated by 171 to 140 votes, the
Government majority, being. 25.
Will Not I(Pe:,a,
The Government in the interim
had succeeded in mustering enough
ruinisterialists to save the situation,
as in the event of a second adverse
vote the ministers would have been
bound to resign.,
The defeat of the Government was
the result of a successful coup plan-
ned by iter. Redmond, and the senior
whip of the Parliamentary party,
Sir Thomas Esnionde, Monday even-
ing. Seeing a short list of questions
for yesterday, and knowing that the
majority of the House expected the
Irish members to occupy' all the af-
ternoon in discussing Irish educa-
tion, Mr. Redmond and Sir Thomas
decided to force a division almost
immediately after questions time,
when the greater number of the Gov-
ernment supporters would still be
lunching at their clubs. The man-
oeuvre succeeded to perfection. Mr.
Redmondarose holding a large sheaf
of notes in his hand, as if intending
to make a lengthy speech; but to
the astonishment of all, except those
in the secret, the Irish leader stoke;
only a few words and then sat down,
while his party demanded the divis-
ion for which such careful plans had.

A scene of indescribable excitement
occurred when Sir Thomas Esmoncle
and Anthony J. 1)onelan, the two
tellers, went to the right of the
Speaker's chair, thus showing that
for the first time in many years the
Unionist Government had been beat-
en. When the clerk •of the Ilouse
handed the division paper to Sir
Thomas Iismonde three was a pe5'-
fect hurricane of Cheers =from the
Opposition, lasting several minutes.
WilliamRedmond, in his exuberance,
snatched a hat from the head of a.
colleague and waved it wildly. The
members rushed in, and a terrible
din prevailed. Ultimately sufficient
quiet was restored to enable. the
figures of the vote to be called out.
Mr. Balfour, who was in the dis-
tinguished strangers' gallery at the
Mine, appeared momentarily as-.
tounded at the jubilant uproar.
atessago For Joe.
The cheering of the Opposition was
resumed when Mr. Balfour entered
the chamber, and he was greeted
with derisive cheers and cries of "Re-
sign!" and "Another message for
Joel" The Premier, who had by this
time regained his accustomed pore-
posure, philosophically surveyed the
excited Rouse. The long-sustn,ined
jubilation did not tend to the ad-
vantage of the Opposition. The
Government whips had time to col-
*lect their disordered forces from all
parts of the House and various
haunts fat London. Driving and tern -
