All tions of the party in Parliament took occasion on the first day of the session | to bury their diflerences and unite for the annoyance of England in her war with the Boers by giving the latter all the aid and comfort they dare For this purpose John Redmond was se- lected to offer an amendment to the address in reply to the Queen's speech, declaring that the war in South Afri- ca is unnecessary and unjust, and should be closed by a recoguition of the South African Republie. aries itr fo fo “ee. come the Boers by the slow and sure march of a resistless body of men, car- rying artillery on a seale hitherto un- contemplated by anybody.

The Colorado legislature is likely to pass a law regulating marriages. The bill places granting marriage licenses in the hands of a board of physicians in each county, which board is to have power to examine all applicants for marriage, and to refuse licenses to all who are judged mentally or physical ly unfit for the duties of married life. The proposed innovation is a startling one, and, as there are strong argu- ments both for and against it, the con- troversy that will follow its passage will be a heated one, es A A A A When the incorporated trusts lay the greedy hand of high prices upon farm- ers and other consumers, the rank and file should elect no lawmakers but such as will demand from these corpo- rations such a tribute to the state's treasury as will pay the farmer's road, school and poor taxes out of the corpo- ration revenues, It is the farmers who are hung upon corporation hooks to be skinned by trust prices, and beg- gared by unprofitable prices for their own products, There isa way of get- ting even with the trust sharks if hon- est men are chosen as lawmakers, Perhaps the secretary of agriculture, John Hamilton, might keep in a para- graph io this live when he makes re marks on agriculture.

No less than 213,000 men and 452 guns have been gathered for the war, although the Bo- ers are not supposed to number more than 80,000. Of these 213,000 men 10,- 000 have already been lost in battle and 10,000 more are locked up in Lady- smith. There are besides 12,000 afloat, But a large force must be kept at Cape the firing line. Winston Churchill, who had some experience with the Bo- ers while he was their prisoner, veri- equal to from three to five British soldiers when he is fighting on the de- fensive in his own country. If the Bo- ers have 90,000 men all told they can probably put 75,000 on the firing line, and a force of 100,000 British is not strong enough to overcome them, It is now reported that General Rob- erts has called for 90,000 more men, and that the Cabinet is about to send him 50,000 militia and volunteers and 40,000 militia reserves. This would raise the army in South Africa to near. ly 800,000 men. Snyder County's Balunoe. The scecunts of Buyder county have been audited.
