An estimate made today by a well informed politician, based on Satur- day's pollings, gives the liberals and laborites a clear majority of 90 over all parties, which would provide the liberal government with a good work- ing ma,ority. Many of the unionists, however, do not believe the liberals will finish the election with so good' a record as this, ' a * - Strong Trend Toward Unionism. New York, Jan, 17.--J. N.

Montreal Witness. lord Rothschild, while on the stump in England, invented a new barometer of prosperity. In an address at Liver- pool, speaking of the improved busi- ness conditions in the United States, he'declared that "when the diamond trade is brisk there is no unemploy- ed labor in America." HencMorward, then, we may disregard steel and wheat and cotton, railway activity and such like when we wish to Know ! how we stand, or are likely to stand, in the immediate future as regards general prosperity. The comparative returns of the De Beers company will tell us all we need to know, or if we find our neighbors' stock of jewelry increasing, it will give us a hint that things are universally looking np. That will save the busy statistician looks of calculating anxiety. As a rule, a brisk diamond trade is only an evidence that the rich are richer, and says little as to the condition of the! people, though, of course, when the wages are high the wage-earner buys a ew watch or gets something mice for his wife. ?
