Progressive Republicans\njoined Senator Lodge in this contention. The resolution adopted was proposed hy Senator Jones, Republican of\nWashington, nnd was accepted by\nSenator Hitchcock ns a substitute for\nhis own. It resolves: \"That tho senate approves and strongly endorses!\ntho request hy the president In the\ndiplomatic notes of Dec. 18 to the\nnations now engaged In war, that\nthose nations state the terms upon\nwhich peace might be discussed.\"\n\"Let mo say on my own authority,\" )\nsaid Senator Lewis in his remarkable\nspeech, \"that I agree with the sentiment expressed from any quarter by\nthe secretary of state or any one else\n(roferrlng to Secretary Lansing's first\nexplanation of ,tho president's note to\nthe powers) that this war cannot continue without America being involved\nIn the conflict.\n\"Do you feel that tho people of this\nnntlon nre in such temper that they\ncan ever ngaln allow any commander\nof ships, any captain of army, any\nofficer of diplomacy to visit upon this\ncountry an Injury to a citizen or\nproperty nnd escape on on excuse of\nmisconception of orders or zeal of an\nofficer?\n\"If theso conditions again be repeated, America will not again accept\nthat form of apology and will resent\nand punish to the full extent of her\npower.

S. LEAD OUTPUT IN\n1916 WAS 622,000 TONS\nThe United States Geological survey, depurtment of the Interior, lias\njust published tbe Now Year estimate\nof the production of lead in 1916. In\nthe production of lead ore there was\na gain of 10 per cent over the preceding year, the lead content of ore\nmined in 1016 being estimated at 622,-\n000 short tons.\nMissouri had the largest production\nand also made a gain of more than\n25,000 tons, Good gains were made by\nCalifornia, Idaho, Nevada, Utah and\nNew Mexico. The production of refined lead, desilverized and soft from\ndomestic nnd foreign ores, was approximately 579,600 tons, worth $51,-\n705,000 In 1915. The output of antt-\nmonlal lead was about 21,800 tons,\nworth about $4,283,000.\nTho domestic production was made\nup of 324,000 tons of desilverized lead\nand 234,000 tons of soft lead, worth in\nall about $75,915,000 and tho production from foreign ores Is estimated at\n21,400 tons. Tho imports of lead in all\nforms were about 35,800 tons and the\nexports in all forms were about 117,\n550 tons, of which 108,200 tons wore\nderived from domestic ores.\nThe total exports of lead were\nvalued at about $15,832,000. The con\nsumption of lead ns near as It can be\ncalculated, disregarding stocks of do\n\u25a0nestle lend, Was 471,200 tons, as com\npared with -426,751 tons In 1915. The\nprice of lead was nearly 50 per cent\nhigher In 1916 than during tlie prcccd\nlng year, tho average of spot quota-\ntlons at New York being 6.,8 cents a\npound, as compared with 4,7 cents In\n1915.\nPttOfSILVffUf\nIS 75 3-8\nLondon Quotation 36'\/z\u2014Copper Market Nominal\u2014No Change in\nLead   Prices.\n(By Daily News Leased Wire.)\nNEW YORK, Jan. 5.\u2014Silver, 75%;\nat London, 36*14. niAtut   \u25a0\nCopper nominal; electrolytic, first,\nsecond and third quarters, 28 at 32%.\nAt London: Spot copper;' \u00a3183; futures,   \u00a3129;  electrolytic,   \u00a3144.\nLead prices: At St. Louis, 7.86; at\nNew York, 7.46; at Montreal, 9.10; at\nLondon,  \u00a330 10s. -    -     '     '\n,v\nFO X E S\nTRAPPERS \u00a3i^MoreM\u00a352f\nV__ _\t\nft\u00ab\u00abW*w\nPREDICTS GOOD PROFITS\nFROM THE UTICA MINE\nUtlca Mines, Limited, operating the\nUtica group of ten claims, seven miles,\nfrom Adamant siding on tho Kaslo*\nSlocan branoh of the Canadian Pacific railway, has enjoyed a most pros-\nporous year and is now in such physical and financial shape that a long\nperiod of profitable operation seems\nassured, says Mining Truth.

The silver markpt Will\nprobably command a chief -Interest\namong the metals. The demand for\nwhite metal is now reaching phenom-*-\nenal. proportions due to the steady absorption of American stocks by t}ie\nEuropean governments and tho fact\nthat the far east hns turned buyer Instead of seller. Silver for coinage ,is\nIn vital demand in Europe, which demand will expand as the time for the\ncessation of hostilities approaches.\n\"With Mexico out of tho market.and.\nlabor conditions in Canada cutting the\noutput down, the burden of supplying\nsilver to the world Is becoming heavier\non the American stiver producers nnd\nthe conditions that have been existent\nin the copper mines bid fair to be repented in the silver producers.\nAlthough silver has risen 30 cents\nan ounce since tho low period wns\nreached in 191-5, an analysis of the producers of silver - either, as la\/chlef.;o*r a\nbyproduct will; show that, the advance\nin the shares has by no. means been\nproportionate to the increased earnings growing out of tlje '3Q-cent Increase In silver. This may be attributed to the fact that investors with the\nspectacular copper metal market and\nthe equally spectacular copper share\nmarket, which provides interest with\nthe Industrial securities, leaving the\nsilver stocks materially in the background. .\nLike the copper producing.companies\nthe silver producers havo be$n.fiii this\nfirst period of prosperity strengthen\ning ilieir treasury resources -and. di\nverting surplus prdfffci into\/new equip\nmei'vt a\"ml mine development. Conse-,\nquently, tlie surplus profits do not\nshow up In the form expected by the\nstockholders\u2014namely, increased dividends. This latter phase of the mar-\nkot wih eventuate probably In tho samo\nmanner that the Increased disbursements took placo In the copper producers\u2014after sufficient funds have\nbeen laid aside for Working capitnl. it\nIs freely predicted that dollar silver\nwill be seen. In some quarters, It is\nthought, It is only a mattor of a few-\nmonths.\nThere is Utile, appreciation that\neven 76-cent silver means phenomenally large earnings for tho sliver producers and It seems to be only a\nquestion of months when the effect of\nthese silver prices will be more concretely expressed In the form of increased disbursements. It Is natural\ntherefore to anticipate a demand for\nAmerican sliver slocks that may oven\noutrival tho great public investment\ndemand for copper stocks.\nCONSOLIDATED  COMPANY\nPROFIT 17.26 PER CENT\nMONTREAL, Jan. 5.\u2014Tho financial\nstatement nf the Consolidated Mining\n& Smelting company for tlie year ended Sept. 30, showed profits of $090,000,\nbeing an Increase of $200,000.

Their magnitude is easily read between the lines\nof the carefully censored news which\nis allowed to go forth.\nPrussian domination of Austria has\nbeen evident since the beginning of\nthe events which led up to tho wnr\nand it continued until Francis Joseph\ndied. \u25a0 Since Charles succeeded to the\nthrone there havo been signs of revolt.\nCharles and the Hapsburg class which\nhe heads have been endeavoring to\nmake peace with the Czechs in the\nnorth and the Slavs in the south. The\nMagyars have allied themselves with\nthe Hohenzollcrns. It is uncertain\nwhether the approaching resignation of\nCount Tisza, their premier, is a victory\nfor the Hohenzollerns or the Hnps-\nburgs, but probably Charles is responsible for It. If thnt Is the cose he lias\nscored a victory against the ruling\nMagyar element and Its ally, Kaiser\nWilholm. On the other hand such a\nsuccess would tend toward the ultimate loss of Hungary us well us of\nUukowina and Galicin, But probably\nCharles prefers this to subjection to\ntlje grasping \"Mittcleuropa\" caste nt\nBerlin.\nBRITISH    COLUMBIA     RETAINS\nPLACE OF HONOR.\nFigures of totul enlistments in proportion to population in Canadian provinces*-up to the end of lltlti place British Columbia and Albcrtu at the head\nof the list.

As Sir Thomas White points\nout Cauudian savings will enable Canada to obtain greater munition orders\nfrom Great Britain, because such orders cannot be secured miles tiils country can give the credit. Canada benefits enormously from munitions orders\nand tho Empire as a whole gains the\nadvantage of keeping the expenditures\nwithin iinpcriat bounds, thus strengthening the whole structure of Imperiul\nfinance.\nCanadian bunks have already loaned\na quarter of a billion dollars for munition credits for the imperial government. They could not have done so\nunless the people of Canada had first\ndeposited the money.\nMoney deposited in Canadian savings-banks helps the Empire to finance\nthe war and to keep expenditures within the Empire.

Precisely there is the blunder and the\nweakness of the Prussian autocracy.\nWhen tlie time comes to appeal lo\nmoral sanctions, it is -bankrupt. An\nwell might a convict Just out of Sing\nSing go to a bank for credit. Germany\nand her allies can only be dealt with\nby force. Like wild animals they must\nbe caged.\u2014London Spectator.\nJudges Should Remain Judges.\nWhy judges should make poor candidates for executive office we do not\npretend to know, but it Is nevertheless\na fact, and it Is a fact to which political parties are bound to give more consideration in the future. Thus the fear\nthat the bench has been dragged Into\npolitics through the precedents set by\nthe nomination of Justice Hughes for\npresident and Judge Seabury for governor is stifled by the election return*.\nOn the whole It Is perhaps better for\nthe country that the judge should remain a judge, and that tho training and\nexperience of the bench should unfit\nhim for party leadership.\u2014New York\nWorld.\nTHE WEATHER.\nMln.\nNelson  r    31\nPrince Kit pert     30\nVictoria     44\nVancouver    '...   40\nEdmonton 8\nBattlerord 28\nSaskatoon  -33\nCalgary   -10\nMedicine Hat     -6\nMoose  Jaw   18\nWinnipeg    ' -22\nLondon    29\nToronto    34\nKingston    26\nOttawa      20\nMontreal     20\nQuebec      ..*..,...   28\nHalifax     24\nMax.\n46\n32\n60\n44\n-6\n-6\n-3\n2\n10\n6\n-14\n36\n38\n40\n32\n88\n34\n34\nI TENNYSON AND f\n\\^ _ _ _      j^ioyp JLB\u00b0AQAl\nThis Is, December tho eighteenth.\nTomorrow Mr. Lloyd George is expected to mako his first speech as prime\nminister in tho British house of commons, a speech that will probably\nprove a landmark in the world's history. May i recall to your readers\nthe marvotous resemblance between an\nideal depicted by Tennyson years before Lloyd George was born, and the\nactual foots of his phonomcnal life.\nThis Ideal Is found in tho 64th canto\nof tho \"In Memoriam\" and thus- it\nreads;\nDoth thou look back on what hath been\nAs some divinely, gifted man\nWhoso life in  low  estate  began,\nAnd   on a simple village green;\nWho breaks his birth's invidious bar,\nAnd  grasps  tho  skirts    of    happy\nchance,\nAnd  breasts  the  blows of circumstance\nAnd grapples with his ovil star;\nWho makes by force his morlt known\nAnd lives to clutch tho golden keys,\nTo mould a mighty state's decrees\nAnd shape the whisper of a throne;\nAnd moving up from high to''higher,\nBecomes on Fortune's crowning slope\nThe pillar of a people's hopo\nThe centre bf a world's desire.\nEacli of the four stanzas describes a\nstage in the ideal career.

The first, second\nand third have had their exact fulfilment In the career of Lloyd George.\nWill the .fourth have u like fulfilment?\nWe hope so.\u2014Hugh Pedley in Montreal\nGazette.\nA CRITICAL SITUATION.\nThe price of paper which has advanced from 100 to 300 per cent nr\nmore over prices prevailing a year ago,\nseriously throatens the life of a large\nnumber of publications throughout ine\ncountry and greatly lessens the profits\nof others.\nThe newspapers, from the largest\ndailies to the smallest weeklies, have\nbeen bearing the burden, which lo\nmany publications will mean compbtc\ndestruction and to many others the\nwiping out of all profit.\nHad tho newspapers of the country\nbeen ns prompt to defend their own interests as they have the interests of\nothers, they too, would before this, have\nundertaken to save themselves by an\nadvance'in subscription price nnd in\nadvertising rates. Hundreds of the\nsmaller weeklies, including the religious papers, which have had but \u00bb\nvery narrow margin between profit and\nloss, will, we fear, suffer most disastrously, unless the public promptly\nrecognizes the situation and accepts\nun advance in subscription and tn id-\nvertising rates, and thus saves the situation.\nThe day laborer, the mechanic, the\nfarmer, and nearly all business interests, manufacturing and mercantile,\nunder the activity of the CTmeS, are\nshowing larger earnings than for years.\nBut tlie newspapers as a whole are\nmeeting a more perplexing problem in\nthe doubling, nnd In eases the trebling\nof price of paper, nnd in the absolute\ninability to contract in advance for\nsupplies, tlinn they have ever had to\nface before. The statements which\nhave recently appeared in tlie daily\npapers on the subject do not at all exaggerate tlie seriousness of the problem.\u2014Manufacturers' Record.\nt WHAT IS IT?

To tho man\nof slow perceptions and timid mind, the\nfirst years of college life are fraught\nwith no terrors'for the soul. Such\ncling to the old ways and-are content\nto shut th-ejr eyes to. any new light\nthat might possibly lead them into\ndangerous conclusions. But for the adventurous spirit those are do)ys of\nawakening, when a man. stands like\nsome stout discoverer on a hill I top,\ngazing wide eyed upon a vast new\nworld. Days of agony of soul, too,\nwhen for months at a time God fo-rgete\nto be gracious and the way of life is\nciQMdpd over. It was Just such an. ex-,\npe-rjence for the two men of whom\nI speak. Wo started a class of prayer\nand discussion. The class was. led -by\nPick Ferguson; he used to bring there\nevery man he could find who felt himself In need of guidance.

How we loved\nthose two men; they were leaders, and\nthere gathered around them a fine circle of men who, though' they had never\nshared their religious experiences, were\nattracted by their clean, strong manhood and their spiritual reality. Now\nthey have gone, and one asks the\nquestion, Is that the end for them?\nIs there no further expression of that\nspirit of the volunteer which led\nthem on through life to death?

The woman who\nallows fashion to dictate her clothes Is\na woman who Is never well dressed.\nThis is an axiom that should be turned\ninto a luminatcd motto and placed on\nevory bureau and in every closet, to\nrender an admonition to every woman\nEach of us needs- the whispering\nslave and the chariot of victory to\nwarn us nnd to Issist upon, carefulness, and women have found mottoes\nthat confront them every day a reasonably wise substitute for the Roman\nslave.\nFew women need be exercised over\nthe choice of a hut with a brim, but no\nwoman can afford lo buy a turban\nwithout giving it serious attention. To\nsay that it is impossible for certain\nfaces to wear turbans Is. not. strictly\ntrue, for all depends upon the shape\nand size of the hat. The tendency of\nthe young woman in smart society Is\nto wear the tiniest turban that can be\ncalled a hat. It Is oblong, it shows\nnearly, all the hair at the sides and\nback, and Its only ornament is a bit\nof metal work in front or-n flnt, 6m\nbroldered ornament, but this style of\nmillinery ' * not suitable for nny grown\nwoman and it Is commended only to\nthose young girls who have set the\nstyles of the day, with their almost\nemaciated figures, a suppleness reminiscent of a snake, a sleek coiffure suggestive of the charmer and a certain\nbravado thnt is surely of the twentieth\ncentury.\nThese girls are Joined to their idols\n\u2014let them alone and don't copy them.\nIt is true that they set the styles, but\nthey set them for themselves and no\none should attempt to follow In their\nfootsteps who is not.of their figure and\nspirit -..\nRussian Turban Leads.\nThere are turbans, however, that cijn\nbe worn by the grandmother as Veil\nas ihc grandchild., They are broad at\ntry mm m\nModern Houstwife Requires Notiw 3e-\nfore Attempting, to Entertain\nGuests to Pinner.\nHospitality seems to be almost.a lost\nurt in the present age, says the, Irish;\nWorld. The days when the unexpected stranger at the door was bidden\nin to eat and sleep are, past, In, some\nparts of the west, however, one still\nfinds that open-hearted hospitality, in\nhomes where the host and his wife are.\nalways glad to welcome any traveler\nwho happens to come to their door.\nBut the modern, housewife of the east\nis almost unacquainted .with impromptu entertaining. She., must be\nforewarned in. plenty of time before\nshe will even.attempt tp. dine. a.-friend.\n. It is rather a pity that this highest\nform of hospitality should be allowed\nto die out. After all, it is.not much,of\na tax pn one's hospitality to, entertain\na friend or two at dinner or luncheon\nwhen the Invitation has been given, a\nweek or so in advance. Any woman\ncap. do that kind ot entertaining with\nample time, for preparation.\nBut one's true metal as a hostess Is\nshown when a friend arrives unexpectedly for lunch, or when the man of\nthe house turns up with a business acquaintance or twp Cor dinner. This\nis a sort of situation which tests the\nreal value of one's hospitality, and unfortunately very few housewives rise\nto suoh occasions at all successfully.\nDon't let Impromptu, hospitality die\nout in your home. 'Encourage your\nhusband to bring his friends home for\ndinner, and your daughter to bring\nher girl chums to lunch. Keep a\nstock of canned goods always ready on\nyour shelves, and a supply of clean\ntable linen in your linen closet for\nsuch occasions.\n*\nWS\nTlie Westminster and the Presbyterian of Toronto, will be converged\nunder the nante of the Westminster\nand Presbyterlau, The new publication will be issued weekly.\nThe university of the . college of\nWooster, celebrating the Jubilee of its\nIncorporation on Dec, 18, 1866, conferred the degree of Doctor of Lett-firs\non Dr., j.

Any deviation from or\ndisregard of this order will mean Immediate suspension  of license.\"\nThe action on the part of the board\nof grain commissioners gives official\nconfirmation to the announcement of\nyesterday that such an order would be\nissued within 24 hours. Commissioner\nJ. P. Jones who is the only one of the\nboard at present in Fort William, when\nasked as to the actual meaning and\neffect of this notice to owners and\noperators of hospital elevators, said\nits effect will be to make hospital\nelevators llvo up to the technical Interpretation of tho act ns It stands today. Thus hospital eleviitors will be\nable to do nothing but terminal storage and to fulfil their ostensible function of taking care of damaged grain.\nMust Keep  Grades Intact.\n'The status of bospltnl elevators,\"\nsaid Mr. Jones, \"has never been properly defined, but they havo been\nprotected in their operation by rules\nand regulations laid down by our\nboard. They were permitted to buy\nand sell grain which they held in storage, contrary to what is permitted to\ntermhiiil elevators. This privilege they\nwill still retain but they will, after\nFeb. l, be compelled to keep each\ngrade intact nnd only blend It with\ngrain of like grade,\"\nMr. Jones wns of the opinion that\nthe majority of hospital elevators have\ntoo small a storage rapacity (or them\nto pay a reasonable return on the in\nvestment in machinery Installed out\nof the storage lees allowed on grain.\nEffect of Order.\nOne of the hospital elevators stated\ntoday thai the Immediate effect of this\norder coming Into effect will be that,\non Feb. 1, the value of all the plants\n,noW Installed as hospital elevators\nwill be cut in half. But this, he added,\nwill be as nothing to the cut in values\nof all grains from the grade of No. 3\ndownwnrds. The rarmers will have\nthe mills as the only buyers of low\ngrades. Also on that date there wilt\nbe approximately 4,000,000 hushels of\nstorage space put out of commission\nfor hospital men will not and cannot\nuse their plants for terminal storage\nonly. This 4,000,000 storage capacity\nIs actually equal to 6,000,000 In terminal bouses, since mixing in hospital\nelevators reduces the grain to fewer\ngrades. The importance of this Is seen\nwhen It Is known that there are 138\ngrades of wheat, and tho government\nterminal alone has 72 different grades\nof grain in store. The terminals are\nnow getting filled up and the loss of\nthe storage elevators will be a distinct\nloss to the country.\nWonderful Bargains  in  the\nClearance Sale\nGIRLS'   DRESSES\nYou Will Be Astonished to See Such Beautiful\nLittle Dresses for So Small an Amount of Money\nA RACK OP DRESSES FOR THE GIRLS\u2014\nAees from S to 14 years.
