The Delineator.
The Christmas (December) number,
of the Delineator is alsotbe thirteenth
anniversary Dumber. To do justice to
tnis number, which for beuuty and
utility touches the highest mark, it
would be necessary lo print the entire
list of contents. It is sufficient to
state that in It the best modern writers
and artists are generously represented.
The book contains over 230 pages, with
40 full page illustiatiiiis, of which 20
are In two or more colors. The magnitude of this December number, fur
ivhich 828 tons of paper and six tons of
ink have been used may bu understood
frum the fact that 01 presses running
14 hours a day have been required to
print it; the binding alone of the edition of 015.000 copies representing over
211.000,000 sections which had to be
gathered individually by human hands.

TIIE   REFDBLICAN   PARTY
It seems to be not at all unlikely that
a geuernl Federal election will be
brought, nn bolore the end of the
present year, seme of tho eastern
papers have even' sot a dato. The
recent dismlfi-al of Hon. J. I. Tarte
from the sdtr, Inietralfon hus brought
about a very unsettled stale of affairs
in the Liberal party. Tartu's proteo-
tiro tariff utti-raneea had many warm
sympathisers iuthe party.
Tin! principal kick, however, Is
from the nmiiufucturlng concerns and
business houses throughout tho country. The uncertainty in regard to the
tariff hurls their business uml the only
ivuy I'd settle tho lurltf qiiestlon stitia-
fuoluiil.v isan appeal to the country.
If the elections aro brought on
before Christmas it will bo hard to
forecast tho probable result. It would
be it pi'etty run. Th'o Liberals would
met likely had lu the mnratlme provinces. In Quebec the Conservatives
Would must likely have a majority, es-
���Socially il Tarte does what he Is
expected to do and ally himself with
bis old lovn tho Conservatives. He
has many ;udmirers in Quebec and
elsewhere and he will no doubt have a
considerable following from the
Liht'i'al ranks. Ontario Is ' pretty
evenly divided In tlio local house, In
fact mure votes wero cast for Tories
than lur Liberals In the last Provln-
nl'hl .-.i.aion, so the provinco would
likoly elect a majority of Conservatives
lo a Federal contest.

such ambiguity isuu indication of dishonesty or incompetency.

it is necessary that this information be sent in early so it may be

in trail ami road building in a district proven lo contain, the mineral
wealth that the Lardeau has is
always money well spent. Looking at the matter from a purely
business standpoint the lew thou���
and dollars that are necessary to
nut our roads and trails in good
ondition would so increase the out-
put of ore from Lardeau mining
properties that' "lhe ftoney would
not be long in returning to the
government coffers in taxes,
especially at the present unjustly
high rate of taxation that is levied
on minerals and mining requisites.
It the mining classes are compelled to pay what seems to be
discriminating taxes, let a just
proportion, at least, ot this revenue
ne spent in making the marketing
of the minerals feasible and cut
down the expense in this direction as much as possible.
We believe        that    mining
districts like the Lardeau pay for
better roads than are provided.
Let us be up and doing.
