Zeal tor the faith\nhas been unloosed. The committee of\nunion and progress will probably only\npostpone this armed struggle between\ntho devotees of the teachings of the\nprophet and those who are urging the\nteachings of Western Europe. The\ncabinet debated the situation for four\nhours today giving special attention to\nthe negotiations which the ministers\nhave taken In hand on behalf of the\nSultan with tlie military members or\nthe committee, among whom are Husni\nPasha, the commander of the third\narmy corps, his division commanders,\nand Izzet Pasha, chief of the general\nstaff.

Tho\ndemand of the committee of union and\nprogress is that the Sultan offer on\nresistance whatever and submit unconditionally. The Salonika committee,\nwhich ls the backbone of the whole\nprogressive movement, is largely military and i.ils important civilian members are with the army. Some or the\nmembers or the cabinet, including Kl-\ntaat Pasha, the foreign minister, are\nactive constitutionalists.\nTewflk Pasha, the grand vizier, who\npersonally is most agreeable to the\nSultan and to military men, adn who\nis looked upon as both benevolent and\nhonest, haB taken the negotiations\nlooking to a compromise. He has not\nbeen able to proceed very far In these\nnegotiations up to the present owing\nto the uncertain conditions which have\nprevailed ln the last few days both\nwithin and outelde tire capital.

The directors recognized\nthe great task before them in connection with the construction of the G.\nT. P., but. relied on the sympathy and\npatience of the shareholders. Referring to tlie G. T. P.

T. P.\nThe half yearly meeting of the\nGrand Trunk Hallway company held In\nLondon yesterday proved in many\nways interesting, one of its most remarkable features being the declaration of Sir Charles Rivera-Wilson that\nthe result of the Dominion elections\nlast fall afforded testimony of the\ncountry's approval of the government's\npolicy in regard to the building of the\nUrand Trunk Pacific.\nSir Charles is probably quite sincere\nIn this belief but had he been in Canada last October he might think differently. Had he been here he might, for\nexample, have seen the whole weight\nand influence of the Grand Trunkrall-\nway as well as of the contractors and\nothers financially interested in the construction of the Grand Trunk Pacific\nthrown openly and unreservedly into\nthe fight to secure the government's\nreturn. He might also have learned\nsomething of the wholesale bribes of\npublic works that wero offered the\nelectors to secure the return of the\ngovernment supporters and likewise\nwould have been In a position to In-\ntorm himself regarding the race and\ncreed cry that was worked to such\nexcellent advantage in various sections. Had he also been in close\ntouch with the Grand Trunk management in Canada and with the manner\nin which construction of the Grand\nTrunk Pacific Is being carried on he\nmight have learned the source of at\nleast a very large portion of the Immense fund that was used ln the government's Interests in a way that\nwould not for a moment be tolerated\nin the old country.\nmuch as Sir Charles might like to\nthink that the result of the elections\nln October last was an endorsation of\nthe government's Grand Trunk Pacific\npolicy, the tact remains that this was\nnot an issue in the campaign. The\nopposition was as fully pledged to the\ncompletion of the road on the original\nterms as was the govLrnment. What\ntho opposition was not committed to,\nhowever, was the loan of $10,000,000,\nwhich is now being put through. The\ntact that this loan was desired and\nwould be given was kept secret by\nboth the government and the Grand\nTrunk people until the election was\nover, although both knew at the time\nwhat was going to be done ln the matter, providing Sir Wilfrid was returned to power. The opposition was not\ngiven an opportunity to take a stand\non the matter, nor were the people allowed to pronounce upon It.\nHad the granting of this {10,000,000\nbeen made an issue In the election and\nthe government been returned, Sir\nCharles might now be able to say that\nthe result was an endorsation of the\ngovernment's policy in regard to the\nbuilding of the Grand Trunk Pacific.\nAt the time of the election it was generally agreed toot whether or not the\noriginal agreement was a wise one, the\ncountry had been so far committed to\nit that it could not turn back, no matter which political party was in power.\nThe government's Grand Trunk Pacific\npolicy therefore was not an Issue in\nthe elections, although aa things now\nturn out It snould have been. White\nSir Charles is on the subject of the\nrelation of the government's return\nlast October to Its policy regarding the\nbuilding of the Grand Trunk Pacific\nthere is one aspect of the matter\nwhich the people of Canada would be\ndelighted to have him take up. It is\nas to the relation between the support\ngiven the government by the Grand\nTrunk railway and those financially interested in the building of the Grand\nTrunk Pacific and the bill now before\nparliament to loan the company $10,-\n000,000 upon terms that are entirely\nin the interests of the latter. Does\nblr Charles see any relation between^\nthe two?   Or does he want to?\nKOOTENAY LUMBER TRADE.\nThe following is from the last Issue\nof the Western Lumberman, published\nat Vancouver:\n\"According to advices lumbermen In\nthe Kootenays are pleased with conditions now existing in getting out logs,\nand the prospect tor an increased\nmarket for the manufactured product.\n\"The conditions last year in the\nKootenays was of grave consideration.\nThe shipments of united States lumber into the prairie particularly affected the mountain trade, as their chief\noutput Is In tho lower grades, which\nare affected materially by tho United\nbtates imports. On the coast, the profit is chiefly made out of the higher\ngrades which are not imported to any\nextent from the other side of the line.\n\"Were the Canadian markets held\nfor Canadians, however, there would\nbe little trouble in disposing of the entire Kootenay product.\n\"The opposition, of course, comes\nfrom the farmer, There may have\nbeen a reason for free lumber years\nago, but there Is no reason for It now.\n\"ihe plants established in the Kootenays, it is claimed, could supply with\nrough lumber Alberta, Manitoba and\nSaskatchewan, to say nothing of the\noutput from the coast. Kootenay buys\ngrain and bay and farm produce In the\nprairie provinces, and lt Is only fair\nthat the farmers of these provinces\nshould buy their lumber from those\nwno consume their products.\"\nThe people of Kootenay will generally endorse the remarks of the Western\nLumberman, but there ls one thing\nthe article tails to point out. It Is\nthat while American lumber is allow-\nto compete on even terms with the\nproduct of the Kootenay mills on the\nprairies, the Kootenay market in grain\nand hay and farm produce is reserved\ntor the prairie farmers by a substantial tariff wall. In other words, the\npeople of the Kootenay are paying the\ncost of protecting the prairie farmer*\nand are getting nothing in return. How\nwould the farmers on the prairies like\ntn see the duties on farm products\nsuch as they ship to the Kootenays removed with the result that this market would be supplied from the south\ninstead of by them. If they can appreciate what this would mean to\nthem, and will apply it, they will be\nable to realize the position in which\nthe lumbermen of the KootenayB find\nthemselves as uie result of the free\nentry of rough lumber into the Canadian prairie country.\nEDITORIAL  NOTE8.\nPremier AsqulUi shows by his Introduction of a bill for the desestablish-\nment of the church ln Wales that courage is a quality In which he is not\nlacking.\nA despatch to the Toronto Telegram\nsays: \"Hon. William Pugsley will not\nresign. Instead he will make a statement.\" This apparently Is Mr. Pugs-\nley's intention all right, but will the\ncountry be satisfied with such a\ncourse?\nThe following Is the resolution\nmoved by Hon, C. J. Doherty in the\nhouse of commons which the govern-\nment voted down. \"That ln order to\nlift the cloud of suspicion that rests\nupon the administration of the various\ndepartments, to satisfy the demand of\nthe country for honest and businesslike methods, and to purge the public\nservice of inefficiency, reckless waste,\nand corrupt practices, it is advisable\nand necessary in the public Interest\nthat a thorough and untrameled litre*\ntigatlon be made by a competent business commission into the workings of\nall the great spending departments of\nthe government.\"\nDespatches would indicate that Hon.\nJoseph Martin ls not likely to meet\nwith any greater success in the by-\nelection in Stratford-ln-Avon than he\ndid in Vancouver last October, but a\nlittle thing tike another defeat will not\nbother Joseph. He Is getting used to\nthem now, tor previous to October\nlast he had several defeats to his\ncredit in this country.\nAthletic Club Raided\nNEW YORK, April 21\u2014When eight\nmen, arrested last night in a raid on\nthe Longacre Athletic elb during the\nprogress of boxing bouts, to which do-\ntectlveB had bought tickets, were arraigned in court today, Lawyer Fuclis\nappeared for the accused and said\nthey had been illegally detained.

Thomson was again at work in his\nhappy vigorous style, meeting with\nthe workers at the Yale-Columbia Co s\nsawmill. At the same hour j. J. Lowe\nunfolded the grace of the Good Shepherd to a considerable assemblage in\nthe Empire theatre illustrating his\ndivining words with picture and song.\nIn the Baptist church In the afternoon\nthere was a meeting of somo forty\nrepresentatives of the various churches who were led In a bible reading\nby Dr. Granstatf. The subject was the\nsecond coming of Christ. The doctor\nexplained that he had nothing sensational to say about this. He would\nfollow the teaching ot scripture, ln\nthe New Testament the second coming\nis bound up with almost every Christian grace and virtue. Some people\nBlight tne doctrine because they dread\nHis coming. They are like the Irish\nhousemaid who preferred to sweep a\ndarkened room because in tbe dark\nthe dust was Invisible. Prior to the\nreformation little emphasis was laid\nupon the doctrine or the Holy Spirit,\nthe visible church bulking so largely\nln people's mtnds and the doctrine of\nthe second coming was obscured by\nthe grandeur of the papacy. Latterly\nthese two doctrines have become prominent in the evangelical churches.\nThe second coming has been too much\nleft to misguided enthusiasts. Careful\nscripture study shows a line of prophecies regarding Christ which have\nOld Curiosity Shop\nHALF PRICE\u2014To close ont our\nwareroom for large stock of new goods\nwe will sell\n25 DINNER SETS\nat Half Price.   First come first aerv 3*1.\nnot yet been fulfilled, His second\ncoming will not be in the disguise of\nhumiliation hut in manifest glory passing description. It will be a coming\nnot to make sacrifice for sins but as\nthe judge of the earth. For this He\nis qualified as the Son of Man. He\nwill separate the good from the had,\nto reign as King, and to establish what\nis rignt among men. Neither angel nor\nman can tell the time of- this stupendous event. Christ has not disclosed\nit. It will be preceded by a period of\napparently Indefinite delay which will\ntry the faith and patience or many.\nTliere is ample room for difference of\nopinion regarding the signs or Christ\ncoming on earth. But it is certain\nthat all through its history the world\nbelongs to Christ. The devil Is a usurper wherever he is at work. Christ\nIs the true King who is coming to His\nown. A generation will some day arise\nwhich will not pass away until it sees\nChrist In HiB glory. The church today\nrequires these three things: First,\nto use tlie power ot prayer ln order to\nhasten the coming of the kingdom.\nSecond, to hear witness for Christ and\nshow compassion for the lost world.\nThe church must get about and do\nthings. Third, we must realize what\nIt means to consecrate money ror the\ncause of God. The church has the\nmeans now of sending the gospel to\nall men if she be willing.\nTile children were happy in the company ot Mr. Love in the roller rink ln\nthe afternoon. His main subject was\nthe curing of blind men by Jesus, ihe\nillustrations were of the usual high\norder. In the evening the audience\nwas larger than on either Monday or\nTuesday, fresh races appearing each\nnight.\nMr. Pugh sang again by special request the favorite song The Holy City.\nA noteworthy featture of this distinguished vocalist's rendering is the perfect distinctness with which he makes\nevery word and syllable audible by\nevery one of the audience occupying\nthe large area.\nTaking a point or commencement\nfrom the prophet Jeremiah'B visit to\nthe potter, Dr. Granstaff spoke of the\nre-making of Human Nature by God.\nThe prophet was then not only discouraged but quite disheartened, uie\nLord can't use an unwilling instrument\nThe creature can say No to the creator. (Jod can't use an unclean instrument. The Christian worker must live\na clean life. God can't use a discouraged Instrument, Jeremiah learned\nof God and could take up a broken and\ndisappointed life and re-make It Ask\nwhy you have failed in the Christian\nlife? Not because God has failed you.\nHas God made a mistake ln choosing\nfor you the circumstances or your lire?\nDon't suppose this. He makes no mistakes. He placed you where He foresaw that yor nature might rise to its\nhighest posslbilltlse. Be what you\nought to be just where you are. There\nIs nowhere an omnipotent personality\nor a cruel fate predestining anyone to\nperdition. The fault lies In ourselves\nWe let our wills and purposes antagonize God's will and purpose. God has\nthe right to take our possessions from\nus and entrust them to others. But out\nof the broken fragments of our lives\nof failure He can make a new life\nof usefulness and strength and purity.\nSuccessful\nFruit Growing\nIs roost surely   and   easily addend\nwith the aid ot\nCHEMICAL  FERTILIZERS.\nThese goods are put up by the Victoria Chemical company, which is It)1\nItself a guarantee ot quality.\nThe Brackman-Ker\nMilling Co., Ltd\nMilitary\nPickles\nWe Want You to Try\nThe  finest production in tbe world and are liked by\neveryone tbat haB tried them.\nPints 25c Quarts 45c\nNoted   tor their high-class quality and delicacy ot flavor.\nBELL TRADING CO.\nFive Big Leaders\nSPRAY PUMP8\u2014We carry the Auto Spray, Myers and Spramoter.\nSPRAYING FLU ID-Cooper's VI.
