The convention of the Union of Canadian municipalities held in Wlna Nipes last week which was in every respect representative of municipal interests in every Section of Tho do minion has made it very Clear that this important organization will net and Usa jts influence along certain Well donned lines. Tho most important direction will to towards the re version to municipal governments of full control of their streets. The problems have a closer relation to Tho general welfare of every City than. Most people realize. They Aro Tho principal avenues of traffic and a City s growth depends upon Tho Facil Ity they offer for it. To curtail Tho City s rights to control fully their is to Tako out of their hands to a Large extent Tho shaping of their own destiny. Experience of municipal bodies with corporations that Havo secured special privileges upon Tho streets has brought this fact Homo to them. Singly their efforts to resist Tho corporation before Tho legislature was ineffective a id con sequently Tho desirability of organisation forced itself upon Ihm. Tho inert Ling of this powerful but still immature organisation in Winnipeg gave it a full Dominion status and hence Forth it will exercise a keen vat Pilanca in saving for Tho municipality and the City entire control of their streets. This is but one of the definite achieve ments of Tho convention just closed. The Battle of the municipality single handed to Ficcaro us rights front Tho legislature is now a thing of Tho past in Canada. But along every other Clito of its development no municipal Ity any longer needs to Light alone. Through its association with the Cana Dian Union the experience of All other municipalities is placed at its disposal. By application to Tho officers of Tho Union. Information is supplied on every subject affecting the business of a municipality. Whether it is a question of by Law making or of Street Paul nor through Tho medium of Tho Union s Bureau of information any municipality can to placed in communication with Somo other that has had experience along the parti Cular lines desired. In this Way an nctlvc1 and sympathetic municipal is being div Lopel Tho effect of which cannot fall to leave its impress upon Tho administration of local affairs. To better Cal Dunco of this could be desired than Tho Way in which those giving addresses it Tho convention on specific subjects Scro piled Ullh questions arising out of the. Cup Crlencic of the interrogators. This brings out Tho formulation of common grievances calling for concerted action upon Tho part of Provin Cial or con the municipalities of tha whole Dominion. Tho Best thought and Tho experience of exports Over Tho whole Dominion will thus to brought to Bear upon the settlement of Tho civic questions that also in any City or municipality. That the Union Canadian Munt cup alleles has succeeded in bringing into sympathetic relationship the Load ing is tics of Canada waa Well evidenced by the presence of leading municipal representatives from All Tho leading cities of Tho Dominion. And when together Tho thorough character . , interchange characterized by a sin Cere Doslee to determine Tho Best methods of municipal practice if men those who took part in tha convention Aro to direct Tho municipal administration of our cities hopeful Ness far Tho future is justified. Tho work. Union of Canadian municipalities cannot but result in the bet Ter government of our cities. C. A sordid tale. The Atory which is told in our news columns to Day of Tho refusal of a License to a hotel at be its owner was politically Unac Ceil table to Tho local Oil Crimont Illus inv Tea no who no lilt in which the .ilc4npe Law of this province Iii Plater de under Tho auspices of that Rillor of the Church.

Tho License inspectors and the commission Era Are the agencies through which Tho govern sent has achieved us object. With inconsiderable and Over Losson ing exceptions the hotels of this pro Vince Are permanent tory committee rooms and Thill owners Vare regular contributors to the reptile fund which is used for Tho Deba Ching of constituencies. C Many of the hotel keepers resent tha tyranny and tha espionage of which they arc victims but subject us Thoy Are to commissioners who Are the a of Tho provincial tammany and it discreet to do As they arc told and Cash up on demand. Snora never waa a time in this pro Vince when any considerable number of hotel keepers were Friendly Tho diberal put Tho number has now dwindled pretty nearly to the vanishing Point. Thea result Hae been by Delvera some been converted into Good to Proa and have their Reward in being per milled to traffic in liquor Ifon Tsoa won Frozen out of the bus Lenaa bar if. Another.

Tilford Aras refused a Reno Wal of License arbitrarily without justification to " com Pel him to sell his business at heavy loss to the Tor Lea. Onco Tho Sale could to effected the Lac Ohio would to granted to Tho now owner and in the transaction thousands of dollars of profit would cleared up which would go to parties who need the Money. Or. Telford would stand the loss but As he is Only a grit he ought to consider himself Lucky that to is allowed to exist and pay taxes. Thea is Tho latest of a Long series of scandals in connection with the Grant ing of licenses. The License commissioners of every License District in Manitoba have shown themselves in different to every consideration of Justice and fair play not to speak of the express provisions of the Law when there is party advantage to be gained. More flagrant than the Tolford Case has Ever Boon carried through and this sordid tale meanness and commercial greed can not but strengthen Tho very general conviction that Tho present system by which the government controls the licensing of liquor Selling through appointed la one that should be changed in the of the Public. Politics in the tran9vaal, the elections in Tho Transvaal Are yet seven months Distant but Tho electioneering is in full awing bet con the progressives and the . The goal aimed at by both parties is same namely a full system of Ropoc san Talvo government. Tho Boa Pons Bles. The Tospon Soblo id t Volk As Tho party named itself in is convention held in april t full representative government in mediately. The progressives Are in favor of proceeding for the presort under Tho modified system of rep sen Talve government established by Tho Imperial government in granting Tho new Constitution Thoy take the r stand upon the argument used by lord Milner in Liis Farewell speech at Johar Nesburg Whon to said nto course could be More a owls s. Especially for those who May have wished that his majesty s had gone even further than to try Ami Naho the new Constitution a fall i with the View of hastening Tho Grai of something else. That might be Way to win concessions from in or willing donor it is not the Way to Ujj t More out of a willing one. If you War t a limn who has your welfare at Haift to ent nut you with ten talents the Way to do it is to Maho the Best me of the Flo talents with which Hohns already entrusted Yogi. Not to hit them away in a Napkin and sulk b cause they arc not ton to begin the platforms of the two parties have much that la in common. They Aro at Ono in the matter of an Auto Matic redistribution and of one Ono the Wulc recognizing that English la the official language of the country declare the t Tho Uso of dutch should to permitted in the legislative Council. Tho r Sponsel Blyn also protest against either the military or Tho South african constabulary being allowed to exercise Tho franchise. A feature of Tho electioneering is that the Rispon Sybll Havo Boon seeking an Alliance with Tho labor party. In a speech at pc Torla or. Botha Ono of thu most Ai Alvo of Tho responsible lenders a that Tho government ought to to a protecting hand More Over Tho Worl ing Man than Over Tho Rich that the impoverished condition Tho Boer had drawn him closer to to working Tho Johannesburg coi respondent of the London morning Post Points out in this connect to that there is let to natural Affinity b tween the Boer party Tho Backbone which consists of conservative Lam owners and a labor party who leaders and ideas Havo both Boon in ported from Australia and Aro of socialistic and Ultra Democrat la Typ Tho labor party Only commands certain Section of tie working Clai vote but is by no Means a Negl Lulb Force. In Johannesburg at Tho la municipal elections Thoro Ware ton labor candidates for Tolvo seats o fill which the whole town voted constituency Only one labor cat a Date was elected but on a total poll of about ten thousand the average Vole for each candidate on Tho labor tick t was Over two thousand. It la regrettable but it apeman 1m Al table that the coming electoral Cor Tost in the Transvaal will in the main to a struggle Between parties divided on racial lines. In except Lanni Casis tha personal qualities of Indle lout 1 candidates May secure for them Tho support of both races but the most to be hoped for is that Tho Best men of both parties will get in and that Whon they find them elves sitting Aldo by aide in the now Assembly real co of oration May prove possible on the hoi of questions which do not directly it Volvo. Any racial Issue and that is the result of such co operation which neither party need Purchase at the Ita own self respect the Llna of racial division May gradually come less distinct. The Telephone in warfare. In no respect has the warfare in Man Charlap differed More from All warfare that has gone before than in the Evus that Oyama Mado of Tho Telephone in the Campaign around Mukden.

By Means of his system of. Wires had Complete control of Hla Ontra army and could work his forces to Tho Best advantage at All times and under All circumstances the move ments so directed were at Tho same time Quick and accurate. An account of Tho Jap anese Field Telephone system that Mado Tho Mukden Campaign a ing Success is Given in the electrical Rovelow. As will to remembered the approach of the japanese was from the South. The russians had become firmly imbued with Tho idea that Tho training of. Their adversaries had been such in Tho mountains of Japan As to Render them very inefficient in the open consequently Kuropatkin thought that Oyama would move his forces through the mountainous re Gion to Tho cast of Mukden with the intention of breaking through avoid ing As much As possible Tho open country to Tho West. Tho intention of Tho great strategist in command Tho japanese was just Tho reverse us plan of operations being to divert he attention of Tho russians mainly to the South and cast so that it would be possible to develop a flanking me o mint northerly and Easterly Aro Aid Tho West Aldo of the City up through the Broad Plains Between Tho Idun and Llao Rivers in order to do this Tho main Jap 11 so army which was composed of five grand divisions was gradually x no inc us upon he it.

Each Dol Felon was a tsp in touch with and us or Tho supervision of the general staff by Means of telephonic communication. From Tho subdivisions of each portion of the army Telephone lines Wero run to n switchboard and from Tho various switchboards trunk lines Scro run to Headquarters several Miles to the rear. Thus Tho parts of each portion army were Mado to correspond with Tho subscribers of a Telephone substation in a Largo City Tho Headquarters being analogous to the station to which All of the subsidiary stations arc connected by trunk lines Oyama was thus nolo to use a Mac n thinner line than was Ever possible previously and also to reverse usual order of procedure namely extend Ami strengthen Tho flanks r to of the army at the expense of Tho Cen re instead of depending As heretofore upon Tho Centre to help out Tho harks in oases of emergency. This of Airia did and Wyllo spreading out his army to Tho East with Tho twofold Obj of attracting Tho attention of the n omy and encircling him to was a at All times to Strilko a blow at any weak spot that developed itself in 1 russian Lino on account of Tho that to was instantly informed such weakness by Telephone and lie cause by Tho same Means i mediately give orders for the acc sary attack. In this manner the Japan so gone succeeded in masking his real flanking movement on extreme West and of his Crescent drawing Trio i in strength of the russians off to Tho cast and Kouth which resulted in Tho Lloro Battles of Tita manhunt to.
