attention to tho energy Kh wlilch Sir CHAMPS Turpun and his fellow Conservatives have assailed Sir Wn rnin LAUIIIEBS concession of a preferential tariff to Great Britain and with which they have repudiated tho project of a political union between the mother country and her Colonies One of the most weighty of thn Ministerial organs the Toronto Globe has undertaken to defend tho Liberal policy Under tho caption of A Record of Prog- ress time Globe maintains that ever since the present Liberal Government was formed Homely In July 1808 the weakness and dis- tension which had long prevailed at Ottawa under Consevativo auspices gave placo to unity and strength Tho Manitoba school question was settled In a few months and has been scarcely heard of during the Inst threo years Other evidences of adminis- trative activity are pointed out For tanco tho Intercolonial Hallway has been extended to Montreal the Crow west Pass Hallway has been constructed and the deepening of the canals has been vigorously prosecuted Twocent postage long talked deferred has become an accom- plished fact nnd letters are now transmitted at that rate from all parts of Canada flIRt the United States to nearly every section of tho British To postal reform has been aIMed tariff reform The tariff bill of 1807 not only made a general reduction In duties especially In thoeo on iron arid steel goods but It placed corn mid other articles on time free list it also assured n preference to the mother country In the market of tho Dominion by providing for a special reduc- tion In 1898 of onequarter of time dull on British Imports ThU reduction has since been Increased to onethird In tho duties during the present year Notwithstanding the material reforms effected In the postal nystom and the tariff the condition of th Canadian exchequer has been Ignnlly Improved eral Government In mtlisft and 1 W there had been deficits amounting to 5694000 In 180S and IS80 there were surpluses aggre- gating JMOOOO

1806 mudded to that of isos or 1889 It H true that this remarkable exhibit on the part of tho Minister of Finanrn credited by tho Conservatives exclusively to tho general prosperity of tho country Ono thing at least however U certain Time figures Just cited disprove the assertion made by the Conservatives In IBM that the return of the Liberals to power would mean commercial nnd industrial ruin But how does tjio Jlobt meet time charge that In giving to British commodities a preference In the Dominion markets time Liberal Government made gratuitously n concession which tho mother country would have bought at a great price According to Sir CHAIIIFS Tvirun Canada ought to Imvo secured in return for that valuable cnnoe- slon a corresponding preference for Cana- dian products in time markets of

obtaining a preference for Canadian products In the British market by way of a return for the preference of onequartor or onethird con- ceded to rltlah commodities In tlm Cana- dian market The Globe points out that even Mr iiAMurniuv has never gone further titan to say that tho United King- dom might placo n smull customs tux on food products and raw materials coming tram foreign countries no as to give a pref- erence to similar commodities sent from time Colonies but only on condition that British products should he admitted to Canada and other Colonies absolutely free of duty The fllobe reminds opponents- that Sir LAtitiun speaking at the time In reference to the sugges- tion of reciprocal free trade said that Can- ada accept such an offer because tho whole fabric of Canadian finance as well us of Canadian industry was founded on customs duties Time Globe Invites Conserva- tives to say whether Cunndlan manufac- turers mute prepared to ncrept time free competition of their British rivals Kvcn if they were It would be nruwary to per- suade time Australian to accept an equally free competition und it would still bo netilful to prevail upon Great Britain to reverse her traditional policy and accept Mr CiiAilUKlilJINS suggestion That n practicable typo of political union between the mother country and her Colon- ies him been yet devised time Globe does not protend to assort It does not hesitate however to reject as outeido of tho field of practical politics tho proposal of a Zollver- rln based upon the principle of absolute free trade between all the parties to tho commercial union There is thus nt last a distinct line of cleavage between the two political parties In the Dominion The Con- servatives although they superior loyalty are opposed to the preference at prescmt given to British products in time Canadian market The Liberals defend that preference but admit that they cannot go absolutely free access to British manufactures although only by that extreme concession could tho 1arllnmont be tempted to allow products a preference In the time United Kingdom The Theories antI Practice of Hodmer A reporter of SUN in Washington visited on Friday busy

of Christianity Is to translate time Illble Into tlio languages and dialects of time people of other religions whom they go to convert The Bible Is the prime essential of their spiritual campaign nnd nmotmt of labor expended on its translation has been almost inconceivably great In the New Hebrides alone said Dr PATOV time Scriptures have been translated Into as many ns twentytwo distinct dialects A single Bible Society the British and For- eign distributes Bibles translated into moro than two hundred languages anti dialects usually by missionaries This great task could not have been performed except under tho of absolute faith in the Scrip- tures as time Infallible word of GOD Time whole impulse to missionary endeavor came from such faith In tho missionaries them- selves and In time selfsacrifice by which they were stimulated and supported Tho circulation of the Bible as the only guide to salvation and tIme source of Christianity- Is the motive of nil the misslomry enter- prise So soon as missionaries have mas- tered a language or a dialect Into which time Bible has not been rendered they set about- to translate the Hook Into it at Infinite tho means necessary to run bin them to the Injunction to carry Gospel to every creature At the Inlon Theological Seminary In whose chapel Dr Pro preached on Sun- day of tho professors toward the Scriptures however very from that of tIme missionaries mimi from thnt the missionaries arc seeking to cultivate In tho heathen world It is nn attitude of criticism rathnr thin of faith nnd Is akin to time Intellectual opposition with which tho missionaries hav to deal in Oriental coun- tries more especially If this criticism Is correct time selfdenying labor expended in making those hundreds of of th Bible has been Inspired by

A Defence of the Canadian LiberalMinistry

We have directed attention to tho energyKh wlilch Sir CHAMPS Turpun and his

fellow Conservatives have assailed Sir Wnrnin LAUIIIEBS concession of a preferentialtariff to Great Britain and with which theyhave repudiated tho project of a politicalunion between the mother country and herColonies One of the most weighty of thnMinisterial organs the Toronto Globe hasundertaken to defend tho Liberal policy

Under tho caption of A Record of Prog-

ress time Globe maintains that ever sincethe present Liberal Government was formedHomely In July 1808 the weakness and dis-

tension which had long prevailed at Ottawaunder Consevativo auspices gave placo tounity and strength Tho Manitoba schoolquestion was settled In a few months andhas been scarcely heard of during the Instthreo years Other evidences of adminis-trative activity are pointed out Fortanco tho Intercolonial Hallway has beenextended to Montreal the Crow west PassHallway has been constructed and thedeepening of the canals has been vigorouslyprosecuted Twocent postage long talked

deferred has become an accom-plished fact nnd letters are now transmittedat that rate from all parts of Canada flIRt theUnited States to nearly every section oftho British To postal reform hasbeen aIMed tariff reform The tariff bill of1807 not only made a general reduction Induties especially In thoeo on iron arid steelgoods but It placed corn mid other articleson time free list it also assured n preferenceto the mother country In the market of thoDominion by providing for a special reduc-

tion In 1898 of onequarter of time dull onBritish Imports ThU reduction has sincebeen Increased to onethird In tho duties

The Greatest Obstacle lu time Wayof the Missionaries

The Rev Dr PATOK a missionary tothe New Hebrides said In tho course of nsermon nt tho chapel of the Union Theo-logical Seminary on Sunday that mission-

aries nre extremely thorough in time Httidyof tho Bible owing to time necessity of t mime

That U very true for the firstwork of all Protestant missionaries ofChristianity Is to translate time Illble Into tliolanguages and dialects of time people of otherreligions whom they go to convert

The Bible Is the prime essential of theirspiritual campaign nnd nmotmt oflabor expended on its translation hasbeen almost inconceivably great In theNew Hebrides alone said Dr PATOV time

Scriptures have been translated Into asmany ns twentytwo distinct dialects A

single Bible Society the British and For-eign distributes Bibles translated into morothan two hundred languages anti dialectsusually by missionaries This great taskcould not have been performed except undertho of absolute faith in the Scrip-tures as time Infallible word of GOD Time

whole impulse to missionary endeavor camefrom such faith In tho missionaries them-selves and In time selfsacrifice by whichthey were stimulated and supported Thocirculation of the Bible as the only guide tosalvation and tIme source of Christianity-Is the motive of nil the misslomry enter-prise So soon as missionaries have mas-tered a language or a dialect Into which time

Bible has not been rendered they set about-to translate the Hook Into it at Infinite

every creatureAt the Inlon Theological Seminary In

whose chapel Dr Pro preached on Sun-

day of tho professors towardthe Scriptures however veryfrom that of tIme missionaries mimi from thntthe missionaries arc seeking to cultivate Intho heathen world It is nn attitude ofcriticism rathnr thin of faith nnd Is akin totime Intellectual opposition with which thomissionaries hav to deal in Oriental coun-tries more especially If this criticism Iscorrect time selfdenying labor expended inmaking those hundreds of ofth Bible has been Inspired by delusion andthe hook has been put before countries notChristian on nn assumption which isNor It possible tq keep from the moroIntelligent of these tho knowl-edge that scholarship In Christendom Itselfrejects tho authority nnd doubts au-

thenticity of tho Bible put before them bytime missionaries ns tho absolute Word ofGop Already In theso days of rapid com-munication that knowledge hns extended toIndia to China and to Japan oral It will be-

come moro anti moro general Very likelywo shall hear of tho consequences from thoLiberal Congress of Religion which met ntBoston yesterday und will continue Its ses-
