White,\nminister of finance, will be made\non Monday afternoon next. Undoubtedly the most interesting\nfeature of the budget speech\nwill be that portion which deals\nwith the tariff, for there is already considerable speculation as\nto the probable changes which\nwill be outlined. The fiscal proposals which will be contained in\nthe budget are, for obvious reasons, kept a close secret, until\nthe minister himself announces\nthem. Speculation only is therefore possible as to what the budget will contain in this  respect,\nThe impression is growing that\nthere will be a reduction in the\nduties on agricultural implements\nand the measure of this reduction\nis estimated at various figures.\nAt present the average duty enjoyed by the industry is seventeen and a half per cent. It is\nconsidered probable that the government will reduce the duty\nto twelve and a half, or even ten\nper cent.\nA galaxy of Liberal spellbinders will appear in Hazelton on\nTuesday evening next, when a\npublic meeting is to be addressed\nby H. C. Brewster, former member for Alberni, who is the leader\nof the party in this province; by\n\"Honest John\" Oliver, the former leader, and by T. D. Pattullo,\nex-mayor of PrinceRupert.

He added\nthat, as provided by the law, he\nwould retire from the House of\nCommons until his constituents\nin East Fife re-elected him.\nThe Premier's absence from\nParliament will not last longer\nthan two weeks. His election\nfor the Scottish division he has\nrepresented ever since he entered\nParliament is regarded as a foregone conclusion. The decision of\nthe Premier was wholly unexpected. It momentarily overshadows the retirement of Colonel Seely, Field-Marshal French\nand Adjutant - General Ewart.\nPoliticians, however, were\nbrought back to the original\ncause of the ministerial crisis by\nthe admissions of Viscount Mor-\nley in the House of Lords, which\nconfirmed many of the Unionist\ncharges and gave the imforma-\ntion that Viscount Morley himself intended to retire from\npolitics.\n\"Colonel Seely's resignation\nhas been accepted,\" was the expression employed by Premier\nAsquith in announcing in the\nHouse of Commons today, that\nhis war secretary had paid the\npenalty of his indiscretion in adding to the cabinet document the\ntwo paragraphs which have\naroused such feeling as to threaten the existence of the entire\ncabinet.\nMr. Asquith made his promis\ned statement on the army crisis.\nThe Premier said:\n\"After full consideration Field\nMarshal French and Adjutant-\nGeneral Ewart have persisted in\ntheir desire to be relieved of\ntheir offices. In the public interest, I deeply deplore the decision of these gallant officers,\nand I cannot speak too warmly\nor gratefully of their ability,\nloyalty and devotion with which\nthey have served the state and\nthe army, and will, I hope, continue to serve.\"\nThe Premier proceeded to tell\nthe House that Colonel Seely had\ninformed him, to his great regret, that he was bound to take\ncourse and resign from the secretaryship for war. Mr. Asquith\nthen sprang his sensation on the\nHouse.   He said:\n\"In the circumstances and aft*\ner much consideration, I have\nfelt it my duty to assume the\noffice of secretary of state for\nwar, although I have taken the\nstep with the greatest reluctance\nin what I believe to be a great\npublic emergency.\"\nPremier Asquith added that\nSir John French and Sir John\nEwart had asked him to say they\nwere in entire accord with the\nstatement he had made to the\nHouse of Commons on Friday.\nIn announcing that King\nGeorge had signified his approval\nof his assumption of the war\nportfolio, Mr. Asquith concluded:\n\"1 have taken the law to the\nhighest legal authorities to obtain\ntheir opinion, and all the lawyers\nare agreed that I must resign\nfrom the House of Commons. I,\ntherefor, in accordance with the\nlaw, retire from the House until\nmy constituents shall have given\ntheir approval to my acceptance\nof this office.\"\nLocal and District News Notes\nH. W.

Sixteen coaches\nfilled with soldiers distressed\nwith the ag-)ny of their wounds,\nwrapped in blankets and bent in\nall shapes, reached the city as the\nvanguard of a long line of wounded, scattered along the railroad,\n300 miles outward.\nAmong the wounded three\nlieutenant-colonels and twenty\nminor officers had arrived by\nnight. They reported a total of\n1,000 wounded on both sides,\nwith an unknown number of\ndead. General Trinidad Rodri-\ngruez, probably fatally wounded,\nand General Maximo Garcia,\nseriously wounded, were left at\nthe front.\nAll accounts given by the men\nwere that the Federals surprised\nGeneral Villa, who, instead of\nfrightening the Huerta forces on\nhis approach, found the Torreon\ngarrison entrenched and prepared\nto stubbornly resist.

It is,\ntherefore, to your interest to see\nthat your printing is done at\nthe most fully equipped commercial printing plant in the\nNorthern Interior, carrying a\nlarge and high-grade Stock of\nstationery, and employing workmen of experience and ability.\nThe Quality Mark Printshop is\ne\naimeca\nieer\nVAXAXAXXJ.J.XXAMXAXtt<lU.4.JLJ,J.X*l.XA^^AJ.J.\ufffd\ufffdi,i.J.XX>\/\nDriving gloves for ladies, men,\nand boys at Sargent's.\nLiberal Rally\nH.
