Jd such a campaign every citizen
should do his own thinking and con

simply the kind that favor his po

up his mind accordingly.
The nation, regardless of partisan

Everybody is talking war and the

Tne Irish drama now holding tho boards
at the Toronto oper house Is not attract ng
tbe audiences which Its absolute merits
should command. It comes to us with tbe
reputation of being as good, it not bettor,
than any Irish drama produced since tbo
famous "Shaugbraun," and Indeed It is
only just to say that it is q'lite worthy the
reputation of Boucicault himself. The
play Is novel in its construction, every cur
tain falling on a dramatic situation of
powerful interest. Tho story is heroic and
replete with refinod sentiment in the pa
thetic passages, and In tho humorous scenes
it is full of a rich, sparkling Hibernian
humor and wit that keep tbe audience in a
continuous roa-. Tho company is good
and in Instances excellent, while it is not
tbo much to add for Mr. Shea, tho star, a
vory young man full of fire and earnest
ness, that his tuturo is prophetic ol tbe
highest possibilities. TorontoMail, Thoa.

EGAN HEARD FROM
THE CONCILIATORY SANTIAGO
DISPATCH CONFIRMED.
IS NOT FAVORABLY REGARDED-
Expressions of Dlssatisfac'ion Is
Heard on Every Sido Presi
dent Harrison's Poslt on The
Cabinet Meeting Yesterday.
Washington', Jan. 27. Tbo dispatch,
from Chill referred to in tho Santiago
dispatch, as published yesterday, was
received nt the State Department last
evening.
Tho contents of the dispatch htiTO not
been officially given out by the State De
partment officials, but they are substantially-
as outlined in the Santiago
cablegram.
The public incredulity regarding the
Santiago dispatches was due to the fact
that Monday Mr. Egau had notified the
State Department that the Chilian gov
ernment had asked for two or three days
longer in which to make its answer,
owing to the absence of President Montt
at the springs above Santiago.
It was not until Into last night that
the fact of the reception ot the message
became circulated, and the sentiment
among public men was one of doubt and
uncertainty.
Tbe reply of Chili was the subject of a
consultation between the President and
Secretary Blaine last evening. The text
of the message of Minister Egan, it Is ex
pected, will be sent to the Committee on
Foreign Affairs in the two Houses of
Congress for their information and to aid
them In the consideration of the Presi
dent's message and accompanying docu
ments transmitted yesterday.
The Reply Not Satisfactory.
Inquiry this morning strengthens the
Impression that tho reply of Chill is not
satisfactory to the United States Govern
ment. Although the answer proposes, it
Is understood, to withdraw the JIatta
note, the tenor ol the oiler Is not agree
able. And the proposition suld to be
contained In the reply to arbitrate the
Baltimore affair is taken to mean the
whole Question, whether or not Chill
hall apologize as well as pay indemnity.
The proposition made to Uhlll is a very
hlniple one for an apology and repara
tion for the Baltimore outrage and the
unconditional withdrawal of tbe Matta
note.
The offer was made by Chill to with
draw this note, upon the grounds that It
bad been hold that a foreign country
could not take cognizance of a message
from tho President to Congress.
In dealing with a matter of interna
tional contention this was not accept
able. This country wanted the note recalled
because It was offensive; not because of
any technical objection to it.
They propose now to recall the note
not because it is offensive, but because
the sending of it wus an "error of judg
ment." This country is not considering errors
of judgment ns causes of war, and will
probably accept nothing but an unequiv
ocal withdrawal of the note as offensive
and improper.
Uoth the Unlteil states and Uhllt
have contended that a question Involving
national honor cannot be settled by ar
bitration. With relation to the suggestion that
the matter be referred to tho Supreme
Court of the United States, Mr. Blaine
and the Attorney-General huvo but re
cently made a very atrong contention
that the Supreme uourc couiu not aeai
with a matter wlilcti was tno suuject ol
diplomatic dispute.
Thlb was the Behring Sea case tho
Sayward case, The petition for a writ
of prohibition in this case was taken un
der consideration by the Court upon the
grounds that It was a legal question and
uot a diplomatic question that was di
rectly prised ted.
goiut Cabinet Officers Approve.
It Is stated this morning on high au
thority that the. proposition of (Jhlll to
submit the Valparaiso incident to the
Supreme Court is acceptable to a certain
section ot the Cabinet, and that efforts
will be made to close the incident in this
way.
It is held that the withdrawal ot tno
Matta note is a substantial victory for
the administration, and that tbe United
States cannot expect to dictate ns to the
sentiments of Chilian Government.
A uroDosal to submit the whole ruina
tion of the assault at Valparaiso to our
own Supreme Court is also held by the
came persons to be practically a conces
sion to the demands of the United States.

NEW BOOK OF JOB.
Printing as Done in the Land of
Hard Up
And Job went into the land of Hard Up
and started a print shop. Ovor the outer
door of his dwelling he hung a sign where
upon wero inscribed these words: "Job
Printing."
Andborunmth in conjunction a news
paper for which he gettetb many subscrib
ers and little cash. And so it came to pass
that at tbo end of six months Job was on
his uppeis. He could not raise even a boil.
"Verily," said Job as ho gazed at the
fringe on i,the end of his trousers and
thinkethof his debts, "Woe is me 1 I shall
send forth my bills to my subscribers, hit
'em for the dust and beseech them to
render unto Job that. which is Job's."
"For, have I not boomed the cussed
placo. Havo I not given my best efforts to
bloated capitalists and got nothing in re
turn? Have I not given large and mag
niloquont puffs unto saloon keepers who
givcth in exebsngo a stinker of a cigar f
Have I not had a good word for each and
overy politician and gut nothing .but nbusi?
"Verily I deserve tbe dust."
And lo and behold tho next day the col
lector returneth saying, "Behold I went
among these people und they sat upon me
saying: 'Thinkest thou we are a race of
dead beats to be dunned by this man Job ?
Let thy master wait I Is he not an editor
while we are poor and must toil for what
we cat while he liycth in luxury.
"If there bo a convention ho bath all tho
glory of recording secretary while another
taketh the labor of a nomination. Is he
not sought out by capitalists and real es
tate boomors and men of great wealth who.
wanteth their homely daughters callod
handsome? And whorolnro doth this
duffer Job tick?" And when he heareth,
this Job buBleth a suspender and saitb,
' Lo is me I There are no shekels in tbo
nowspsper business and ho that is wise
leavoth it in baste."
So ho buyetb the stock of an Israelito
who solletb ready made garments and over
the outer door ho hangeth tbo sign "Job
Lots" and lo and behold in a few years ha
prospered exceedingly, becoming dir. ctor
of sixty-four corporations.
Job was thon the stuff for be bad shown
