According toa London despatch it is impossible to escape the jubilee echoes. Already everything is turning upon that celebration, dress decoration and ornaments while there is a shrieking chorus from the press warning everybody sagaiost all im- aginable disasters which it is claimed are likely to ensue,

‘The Co-operation of the King of Abyscinia Belog Sought,

The English vewspapers bave scarcely noticed the doings of the mission sent by the French government to Abyssinia, but the Paris press 1s fullot them. One thing Certain is that remote Abvssinta has been

the theatre of rival intrigues which may have reeuits that will menace the peace of Europ. It reems reasonably sure that King Menel

The readers of this c rresyondence know that a French ¢xpedition for pearly two years haa been slowly making its way from the Congo region tothe Upper Nile. It is koown that the expedition is under the command of Captain March, an intrepid French officer, and that it is officered large Iv hy non-COmmissioned officers of the French army.

Tbe incredible rumor is sfloat that France is prepared to enter into an alliance with the fanatical dervishes, but as it is probable that the Mahdi’s successor would scorn to adopt an alliance with un- believers, the rumor ‘is outside the bounds of probabilitv. But a French alliance with the half-civilized Abvsinians is quite on thecards and

will of the people would be carried out were it to cost power forever to the Liberal party.”

And on Jane 9ihb, 1896, in the town of Stratforé, Ontario, io reply to a deputation ot Oatario prohibitionists, Le declared :--

“jJp to this moment that question (pro-

Uitition) has never been approached by the electors free from other consideratiens. Whenever it has been submitted to the rdlectors it bas always been submitted along with other questions that affect the public mind. Wedeem it wiser to separate it fro’ @i other considerations and test pablec fecling in the matter, and that we sail do when we come into office, as I be- theve eve shall.” :

These pledges, Mr. Carson thinks, make % incumbent on Mr. Laurier (1) to pasa a plebiscite bill thia session ; (2) to avoid ax icing the question of ;rohibition up with

any other issue; and (3) in the event of a maajerity of the votes cast being in favor of prohibition, next session: to introduce an@ pass an act prohibiting the importation exsaaufacture and sale of iptoxicating liquors. But Mr. Laurier is noi going to

a plebiscite bill this session. It Mr. E,aurier had pledged himself not to pass a plebiscite bill this s-ssion Mr, Carson might expect him te do the opposite to «hat he promised. The average grit ~tatesman it an expert at breaking pledges and Mr. Laurier is not ac exception.
