~Section No. 26 respecting the transâ€" mission of newspapers free will conâ€" tinue in force in respect of any newsâ€" papers and periodizals as shall not be required to be transmitted by mail a longer distance than ten miles from the place of{publication. Provision is also made for the adâ€" mission, free of Canada postage, of books designed for the use of the blind, andfan amendment respecting the reâ€" turn of dead letters. > "On and after the first day of Januâ€" ary, 1899, newspapers and periocicals printed and published in Canads, mailed by the publisher in the postâ€" office at the place where they are published, and addressed to regular subscribers or newsdealers in Canads, resident elsewhere than in the place of publication, shall be transmitted by mail to their respective addresses at the following rates of postage, viz.:â€" On and from the first day of January, 1899, and until aud inclusive of the thirtieth day of J une, 1899, at the rate of oneâ€"quarter of one cent, and there after at the rate of oneâ€"half of one cent for each pound weight, or any fraction of a pound weight, which shall be preâ€" paid by postage stamps or otherwise, as the Postmaster General from time to time directs. The paper must be published regulâ€" arly at intervals of not more than four weeks, addressed to a bonaâ€"fide subscriâ€" ber, or to a known newsdealer in Can ada and delivered into the post office under such> regulations as the Postâ€" masterâ€"Gemeral shall make." The bill was made the subject of a strong adverse criticism by Sir Charles Tupper, who argued that the bill was a blow at the great newspapers, the greatest educative influence in the country. There are, however, quite a nnumber of journalists in the house who will no doubt see to it that newspapers are fairly dealt with, . The clause also provides that the reâ€" du:tion shall only come into force upon a proclamation of the Governorâ€" inâ€"Council to that effect. POSTAGE ON NEWSPAPERS. The present law respecting the post age rates onâ€" newspapers is repealed with one provison, and the ffollowing new clause submitted : "On all letters transmitted by post for any distance within Canada, exâ€" cept in cases herein otherwise specially provided for, there shall be charged and paid one uniform rate of two cents per ounce weight, any fraction of an ounce being chargeable as an ounce, and such postage rate of two cents shall be prepaid by postage stamp or stamps atb the time of posting the letter. Letters wholly unpaid shall not be forâ€" warded by post, but letters addressed to any place in Canada, on which any postage has been prepaid by stamp, shall be forwarded to their destination, charged with double the amount of postage thereon not so prepaid, which amount shall be collected on delivery." It is hardly fair that the mails should be loaded down with newspapers carâ€" ried free and be the vehicle for distriâ€" buting all manner of campaign litera: ture during election . time. Self reâ€" specting newspaper publishers desire to run their newspapers on business prinâ€" ciples, bear their fair share of the public burdens and not expect charity from the Government. Mr. Fielding‘s first budget, with its preferential tariff, was one of the epochâ€"making financial changes of the TWO CEN‘T POSTAGE. The new act provides for the estabâ€" lishment of a uniform twoâ€"cent rate of postage. The clause provides as folâ€" lows :â€"> Hon William Mualock, Postmaster: General, bas introduced a bill to amend the Post Office Act.

CHEAP READING Address THE BUDGET SPEECH. TO ADVERTISERS DAVID BEAN, Our Clubbing List. $1 85 $1 25 gl T5 'sg 33 .82.00 .$1 50 $1 45 S$1 45 $1 40 $1 75 Altogetber, we are glad to hear of the reported reduction, and hope it may be followed by a similar moveâ€" ment on the part of the chairtered banks who may, in course of time be thus enabled to make a corresponding reduction in the rate of interest on loans. We know there are many bankers who fear that any lessening of the rate of interest now paid for deâ€" posits will lead to a withdrawal of a large amount of same. This is not likely to happen. The ordinary Bank depositor accepts a low rate of interest rather than invest or, as he thinks, risk bis money in some labourâ€"employâ€" ing industry. The recital of statistics to show the improved position of business and the growth of our export trade. Tory pre_ dictions had been abundantly falsified. The reduction of the interest on savâ€" ings bank deposits from 3 to 2 1â€"2 per cent. Mr. Fielding said that the reâ€" ducing of interest on these moneys tended to make money cheap for the business men ; that the Government did not look upon the postoffice savâ€" ings banks as affording investment, bust as affording security ; that they would pay the same rate at which they would pay the same rate abt which they could borrow ; and that a very large amount of money deposited in Govâ€" ernment banks was put in by poor people. The announcement that it was the policy of the Government to look toâ€" wards a lowering of the duties. GoOV/ERNMENT RATE OF INâ€" TEREST. Insurance & Finance Chronicle : We understand that the Government‘s rate of interest will be reduced on July 1st next to 21 per centb. Such a course is very commendable, as the credib of Canada is now so well established that her future Governments should bave no. difficulty in providing for any pubâ€" lic requirements without paying as in the past a bhigh rate of interest to an army of small depositors throughout the Dominion. The handling of money received through the Government Savâ€" ings‘ Banks necessitates the maintenâ€" ance of a‘large staff of officials, payment for whose services adds greatly to the cost of the money thus received by the Government. \The increase of the duty on raw and refned sugars, changing from specific to ad valorem form, and the placing of sugar on the reciprocal tariff list, in order to give the British West Inâ€" dies cane sugar a 25 per cent. preferâ€" ence over the German bounty fed sugar. Under the reciprocal duty, the West Indian sugar will come in at 49 cents per bundred pounds, while the general duty this year was 50 cents per bhundred pounds. We regard the action of the Governâ€" ment in reducing the rate of interest as an indication of their intention to obtain money in future upon the best terms possible. The Woodstock town council, at a special meeting finally decided, by 9 to 6, to buy a Buffalo Pitts Co. 12â€"ton steam roller for $3,300 under a two years guarantec, British Empire, and drew from all the countries over which the British flag floats the warmest commendation. Mr. Chamberlain, in one of bis officia) despatches, says that the action of the Canadian Government has "been warmâ€" ly welcomed and sppreciated by Her Mejesty‘s Government and the people of this country as a measure which cannot fail to result in material bene ‘fib to the mother country and to Can t * ada, and to weld together still more firmly the ties which unite them.‘ The preferential clause, it will be rememâ€" bered, was fcouched in language deâ€" signed, if possible, to prevent other nations holding ,‘most favored nation‘ treaties with Britain from sharing in the preference accorded by Canada to Britain. There was necessarily a good deal of doubt over the matter, as Mr. Fielding was striking out in a new path, and the law officers of the Crown in Britain finally decided that the clause did not exclude these nations. But the Canadian Government had achieved the end sought for, the Brib. ish Government denounced the German and Belgium treaties, and Canada was left free to make the perference to Britain law as well as fact, This was last week, as had been announced by Hon. Mr. Scotbt in the Senate two months ago, and hereafter the 25 per cent. preference will only apply to Britain an d such colonies of Britain as have & tariff answering to or lower than the Canadian tariff. Ib is exâ€" pected that nearly all the colonies will come in under the reciprocal clause. The showing of a deficit last year of $520,000, and an expected surplus for 1897â€"8 of $551,000. Mr. Fostor had predicted last year‘s deficit as two or three millions, /and the expenditure at 40 millions. The expenditure was $38,â€" 350,000. The other features of Mr. Fielding‘s second budget speech were : "I believe that the time may come when the great commercial powers will join in an alliance to prevent China falling a proy to any exclusive influence, and I am convinced that Great Britain, by coutinuing her present unselfish policy of opening to all what she secures for herself, will build up in Europe, and not the least in America, a body of public international opinion, which will be more powerful than any hasty action Great Britain‘ might take at the present moment,." The budget was presented in the Manitoba Logislature Tuesday afterâ€" noon by Provincial Treasurer McMilâ€" lan. In the course of his remarks the Minister announced a â€" satisfactory settlement with the Dominion Governâ€" ment regarding the school lands fund. Another feature was a reduction of salaries of Ministers and members of the House, the ordinary indemnity being decreased $100 and the Ministers $300 each,. Premier Greenway‘s salary as President of the Council is also reduced by $300, or a reduction of $600 in all for the First Minister. The estimates are nearly the same as last yerar. _ The incoms is increased by $200,000 advance from school lands fund, and the expenditure on schools is increased from $180,000 to $200,009. The good roads movement is spreadâ€" ing Merritoon. bas decided to spend $2,000 in laying a model roadway ; and the township of Stamford has de:â€" cided to abolish statute labor and exact a small tax instead, ‘to te used for a proper scheme of roadâ€"making. Continuing, Mr. Balfour said : "We offered, if they would abstaiin from takâ€" ing Port Arthur, ourselves to give a corresponding pledge to take no part on the Gulf of Peâ€"Chiâ€"Li. Bat our offer was not accepted, so, on March 29, we informed Russia that we should hold ourselves free to take the necessary steps to safeguard our interests, and Great Britain has since obtained a lease of Weiâ€"Haiâ€"Wei on the same terms as thesa on which Russia secured Port Arthur. _ Weiâ€"Haiâ€"Wei is the only port on the Gulf of Pe Chiâ€"Li which might balance the possession of Port Arthur. _ Wbile Port Arthur is strongâ€" er, the accommodationjat Weiâ€" Haiâ€" Wei is inestimably greater, and by taking Weiâ€"Haiâ€"Wei under our protection we prevent the Gulf of Peâ€"Chiâ€"Li from fallâ€" ing under the maritime control of one power and thus defend our interests." THE FUTURE‘S SECURITY. Relative to the security of the future, Mr. Balfour said it is not to be denied that indications were that China might collapse, and, with further decay, fragâ€" ments might be snapped up by various powers. But, it would be a mistake to allow Great Britain‘s policy to be govâ€" erned by such constinguencies,adding : "We desire to maintain the integrity of China so far as possible; but, it must be reco‘lected that the future will probably have strange surprises in store." â€" SECURED WEI HAI WEL, Touching upon WeiHaiâ€"Wei, Mr. Balfour said that Russis, having secured Port Arthur on the maritime approach to Pekin, Great Britain had secured Weiâ€"Haiâ€"Wei to balance mat ters. The speaker explained that had Russia confined herself to obtaining an ice free commercial port as a terminus for her railroad, no complaint would bave been made. _ But, unfortunately, Russia determined to obtain control of Port Arthar, which will not be, and could not be, made a commercial port. So soon as Great Britain heard of the negotiations she laid her views clearly before Russia, and expressed her sense of the evil they were bringing upon China. In conclusion : Mr. Balfour said : "The balance of power in the Far East may be very different when the disinteâ€" gration of Chinga has occurred. The time may come when the great powers will say that China shall not fall into the hands of any one power, and to embark upon a now difficult and costly enterprise in order to ward off a remote and doubtful danger would be politica‘ folly. Her Mejesty‘s Government asks the country to endorse this policy with more confidence, because we know that Great Britain has the sympathy of the great commercial commurity throughâ€" out the world. (Cheers ) London, April 6.â€"Rb. Hon. Arthur J. Balfour, Acting Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, mads a statement in the House of Commons yesterday respecting Great Britain‘s policy in China, The House was crowded and Mr. Balfour was loudly cheered when he rose to bis feet. He enumerated the concessions obtained by Great Britain, namely that the region of Changâ€"Tseâ€"Kieng should not be alienâ€" ated by any foreign power ; that the succesor of Sir Robert Hart as direcâ€" tor of the Chinese imperial maritime customs, is to be an Eoglishman, and that access to the inland waters is to be had by ships of all nations. A fourth concession, Mr. Balfour continâ€" ued, ‘occurred a day or two ago, nameâ€" ly the opening of three new treaty ports, Funing, Yechsu and Chin Wang This, Mr. Balfour said, was a con siderable harvest for two _ months‘ negotiations. Relative to the Germanâ€" acquirsitions of railroads, Mr. Balfour‘ said that whorever they were construcâ€" ted they must be a benefit to British commerce. _ He preferred railroads and differential duties to no railroads and no duties. BRITAIN‘S POLICY IN THE FAR EAST. Important Statement in Parliaâ€" ment by Mr. Balfour â€" The Taking of Weiâ€"Haiâ€" Wei. EDITORIAL NOTES. THE BALANCE OF POWER, Messrs. Crossley and Huunter, the well known eyangelists, have suggested a new form of ballot, The proposed ballot shows a man‘s arm and hand with the index finger pointing to a white disc in which the cross is to be marked. The ballot is all black except the disc and the coat sleeve, on which the name of the candidate will be printed, Editing a paper is a nice business. If we publish a joke people say we are rattle headed. _ If we publish original matter, they say we don‘t give ‘em enough selections. If we give ‘em seâ€" lections wa are too lazy to writo. If we givea man a "puft" we are partial. If we compliment the ladies, men are jealoas. If we don‘t we are publishing a paper not fit to make a bustle of. If we remain in our office we are to> provud to mingle with the "common herd." If we wear good clothes, we don‘t pay for ‘em,. Now what shall we do? Some may say westole this from an exchange â€"and we did. We are rightfully s‘"ocked at bullâ€" fights, disgusted with ; gilism, worried over a dogâ€"fight, immuignant ab viviâ€" section and pained at cruel+1 * animals, but ro‘l these all together a . 1 multi ply them by a million ard they are not yet war. Is it this wh ch is yet sanctioned by Obristian (?) nations ? Stouffville, April 5 â€"Dr. Wm. Eastâ€" wood of Claremont, was arrested toâ€"day by Constable Gibson on & warrant isâ€" sued by Magistrate Phillips. The charge is abortion on a young lady of Broughâ€" ham and is siid to inclade a number of charges of a similar character. Eastâ€" wood was brought before Magistrates Phillips and Holden at Claremont toâ€" night, and remanded to Whitby jail without bail until Satarday. It is said that several other arrests are to follow. The Presidert has so far calmly and firmly stemmed the deluge of baseless sensationalism that is daily telegraphed from Key West and Havana, but he sorelyyneeds the morel suppore of all he saving elements of the nation. The generation which bhas come upon the stage since the great civil conflict knows something of the poetry of war, but litbtle of its reality, It has been most exactly defined by the man who knew it most intimatelyâ€"General Sherman â€""War is hell !" The log‘c of war is so abnormal that it may truly be classed as a contagious and collective insanity. _ Reason is suspended and passion rules. The arch enemy of mankind, of Christianity, of the home, of virtue and of industry is enthroned, decorated and clothed in a robe of patriotism,. _ A great social structure of national life, bhappiness, good will and civil and religious prosâ€" perity reared with infinite pains is to be honeycombed and shaken by a torâ€" nado of prejudice and passion. Why do ministers of the gospel (ambassadors of the Prince of Poaca), bumanitarians and reformers so generâ€" ally remain silent ? T iere is one notable exceptionâ€"bless ber great heart ! Mrs. Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Ward has had the boldness to call things by their right names during the present national tâ€"mpest of antagoniem. The yellow sensationalists are willing that the fathers, busbands, sons and lovers of other people should be sacriâ€" fired, bubt should there be an ac‘ual conflict it may safely be assumed that, as a rule, they would stay at home and fight through the instrumentality of black headlines. There have been in Cuba those things which are always a part of a war : cruelty, death, suffering and destruction. _ Arse these to be righted by multiplying them a hundred fold ? Weyler was brutal ; therefore we will retaliate by slaying ten times as many as he did ! To the million and a half of in volved Cubans, we will add seventy millions of Americans who are now enjoying the fruits of peace and prosâ€" perity. How logical! The same press that properly expressed the deep grief of a whole city over the loss of six gallant fireman dilates upon the probâ€" able sacrifice of & thousand times as many valuable lives with a levity of spirit with which they would contem:â€" plate a holid y celebration. But great as the physical and indusâ€" brial loss from war might be, it would be far overshadowed by the accompanyâ€" ing moral and spiritual demoralization. Prospective "peace on earth and gond will to men" would be push=d back by the surging forces of batred, and all that is lowest in human nature would come to the front. The degradation of the yellow journalism of the period is a burning disgrace upon the American national character, for the press of no other people on earth has ever wallowed in such a mire. _ We talk of national honor. Dishonor is possible only from within. War a Relic of Barharisnm, It is a fundamcnt.l and admitted principle that he who incites a crime morally shares in its guilt. To stimâ€" ulate the same through monumental lying doubly deepens the outrage. The sensationalist who persistently tries to light the flames of war between two great nations (and more than two might be invol!ved) in order to sell a few more papers is as truly an incenâ€" diary as the fanatic who blow up the Main, provided she were not accidentâ€" ally destroyed. 3 Under civiliz d conditions war has no placa. It is rampant animalism, or rather it is worse, because animals, nob being endowed with reason, know no better. _A resort to brute force, whether between individuals, communtâ€" ties or nations, never can right a wroug. Except for the purest selfâ€"defence it is essentially a crime, and no sophistical gloss can make it otherwise. D‘ sguise it as we may, it is s mply mutual murâ€" der on & colossal scale.

J.W.Meyers & Co., Listowel, have decided to make $7,000 improvements to their fl)uring mill. They will also build an elevator 30x48 feet.

Henry Humphreys, Eaist London, sends his unsolicited tes:imony: "I was seized with painfal rheumatism in my left foot. I could not rest with it day or night, the pain was so intense. I tried many remedies, but they had no more effect on me than water on a duck‘s back. I was persuaded to try South American Rheumatic cure, I followed the directions closely and in & very short time this wonderful remedy effected a complete cure, and there has not been the slightest hint of the reâ€" turn of the disease.

For several months past Camoron had been speculating heavily in wheat, and his losses are said to have totalled several thousind dollars, In the Division Court Tuesday Jas Lane, broker, sued Mrs. Ellen M.

Ib was subsequently ascertaincd that he had raised $2500 on a bogus mortâ€" gage, and retained $25C0 insurance moneys belonging to Miss Murdoch,the daughter of his former partner, the late W. G.
