Eastern Townships GOVERNMENT WILL BE URGED TO BUILD Municipalities Ready to do Their Part.Stirring Speeches Are Delivered.Big Delegation Will Visit Quebec.Basis Upon Which Government Will Build the Main Trunk Highways.Resolution Adopted Outlining Proposed Route.Richmond, February 7.\u2014(Special)\u2014 The largest and most representative assembly of delegates from over forty municipalities, or, to be more general in terms, from the counties of Sherbrooke, Richmond, Shefford, Rou-ville, Chambly, Arthabaska, Megan-tic, Lotbiniere and Levis, that has ever, in the history of this province, been assembled for the encouragement of improvement to roads, met in the Town Hall here on Thursday under the presidency of Dr.John Hayes.The delegates were called to order, registered and appointed a general committee to lay out the project which should become the object of the future work of the Good Roads\u2019 Congress of the Eastern Townships and south-eastern Quebec.Rarely has a movement begun with greater promise and it is certain that the delegation which will later on go to Quebec to interview the Government will be one of the most influential possible.The committee which drafted the project which was finally presented to the congress and carried without a dissenting voice was composed of the temporary committee who organized the congress Dr.Hayes, Mayor J.E.\tGuillemette, of Danville, W.J.Ewing, Registrar of Richmond, secretary, and P, C.Duboyce, N.P., treasurer, with W.S Bullock, M.L.A.for Shefford ; E.Robert, M.L.A.for Rou-ville ; Paul Tourigny, M.L.A.for Arthabaska ; F.T.Savoie, ex-M.P.for Megantic ; E.Winn Harwell, of Sherbrooke ; H.A.Dickson, of Inverness ; F.\tB.Perkins, president of the Waterloo Board of Trade ; Dr.Allard, of Bromptonville, and Henri Pepin, of Arthabaska.RESOLUTION PASSED.The following resolution was presented and carried unanimously : \"It was moved by B\\ B.Perkins, of Waterloo, and seconded by J.A.Allard, of Bromptonville, that in the opinion of this assembly the construction of a permanent highway from Levis to Montreal via Richmond, where it would connect with Sherbrooke, would be a work of capital importance to the province in general, and more especially to the nine great counties traversed by such a route, namely, Levis, Lotbiniere, Megantic, Arthabaska, Richmond, Sherbrooke, Shefford, Rouville and Chambly, representing a total population of approximately 200,000 people.This improved highway would also \u2018connect the important centres of Montreal and Quebec with Sherbrooke, Levis and upwards of twenty important towns and villages aggregating an urban population of 55,000 people, not to speak of the large rural and agricultural populations to be affected and benefitted ; \"Whereas such a highway would not only be a d rect benefit to the counties and localities mentioned above, but would act as an incentive to the better construction of highways throughout the counties, which would link up and connect with it ; \"Whereas such a road is urgently needed for the interests of agriculture, industry and trade conditions generally ; \"Whereas it would also be of great benefit to the social and educational life of these various communities ; \"Whereas the route outlined as follows .One main trunk road between Levis and Richmond and the American border, Sherbrooke and Montreal.The road from Levis to Montreal to run to Richmond, passing through the principal towns on its way, thence from Richmond onward in a south-westerly direction through the Roxtons to Granby, thence ' following the old stone road through Abbotsford, St.Oesaire, Marieville, Chambly to Montreal, thence from Sherbrooke in a westerly direction through Magog, Waterloo and connecting with above road at Granby.Then another branch connecting Richmond with Sherbrooke and thence on to the American boundary line would be the most direct, most practicable and the moat economically constructed of any covering such an important section of the province.\"Be it resolved that a delegation composed of the whole of the delegates present at this meeting, with power to add to their number, wait upon the Provincial Government and urge upon it the advisability of undertaking the construction of this route at the earliest date possible, with such deviations as may, in the opinion of the Government, bo deemed advisable or expedient.\u201d, PRESIDENT'S STIRRING ADDRESS.The afternoon session opened at 1.15 with an address from Dr.Hayes, chairman.He spoke as follows : \"My first duty is to express for myself and the gentlemen who have been associated with me in organizing this meeting a deep sense of satisfaction at the way m which you have responded to the invitation.This is a large and distinguished gathering of representative citizens of every part of this province, who, at their own personal expense, and with considerable disturbance to their private affairs, bave come to Richmond to consider what is to my mind a project of the highest importance for this province at the present time.I cannot tell you very much about the good roads, but I can tell you a whole lot about the bad roads, because I think I know all the bad spots in the roads about Richmond for 20 miles.I know but very few good spots and the few good spots are there because they were built right in the first place ; they were maintained in the second place, and in the third place they were so arranged that the water ran away from them.\u201cA study of the subject of roads will show that at no time has any great public highway been constructed by municipal effort alone.You can go back into history as far as you like and you will find that in order to get a permanent highway some great effort has been made.The old Roman roads which we admire today were built by the captains of the Roman people, and a special effort was put forth to construct them.The best roads in this province were built by special effort, so in order to have a good highway we must make a special effort av some particular stage in the proceedings, and it is for that purpose, having in view the object of making one good road for south-eastern Quebec that we are making this special effort to-day, and I thank you all for coming here to assist us.We know in connection with good roads that we have to have a system in the construction.Every good road in the United States, in Europe or Canada has been accomplished by a systematic effort.In the old country they started about 100 years ago to build permanent highways\u2014Macadam - Telford\u2014and\tthe French engineers were the pioneers, and the result is that they have today a system, of permanent highways in Europe which, at the present time, cost scarcely anything for the maintenance.The first roads in the province of Quebec were built under a system in which they had a central officer taking the lead, who had under him subordinate officers.These gentlemen had control of the roadmaking and the construction was done by a special effort of the inhabitants along the route indicated, or in other words you have there the origin of statute labor.This system was continued up to 1841, when our municipal organizations were formed.Since 1841 to the present time the biggest part of the work of municipal organizations has been to build roads.What we have and such as they are have been built largely by municipal efforts.We are not here to-day to decry what we have already done.The first people who came into this country were poor ; they went into the forests, they chopped the forests down and created smiling farmyards, and when they laid down their burden they laid it down after having accompUshed much for this country, and the second generation took it up and we have that municipal system since 1841.The time has arrived when this country has reached such an importance that if it is to follow its destioy we must adopt a system of state aid to the municipalities in the construction of its great through highways.Every province in this Dominion is studying this question at the present time.Ontario, some years ago, voted one million dollars in aid of the construction of roads ; they established a county system whereby the central Government furnished one-third of the cost to the counties, and they are gradually creating a graded system of county roads.In the United States they have state - aided roads ; some places there have a central bureau which gathers information, and there are some states like Now York that make a dozen roads.A law has been made by the Provincial Government of Quebec bv which power is given for spending ten million dollars for the construction of highways, with the co-operation of municipalities, and 1 say that if that money is spent judiciously the Quebec Government will have done some- thing to its credit and to the credit of this community.\"As to the project which we have before us to-day, the scheme of which is outlined in the resolution that will be submitted to you, we believe that the suggested road would establish a system of highways which would furnish the agricultural and industrial populations and other interests of these great counties to the best advantage of all.It has been impossible for us to trace this outline in detail\u2014we are not familiar with the local conditions.We have simply set out the idea of a great highway through these different counties, and we have asked you to come here to endorse that idea, and when it comes down to the matter of details we must ask you to decide them each in your own constituencies.An enterprise of this kind is not a parish affair\u2014it is a matter of provincial importance, of county importance, and lastly, a matter of local importance, and consequently I would ask you all to sink whatever local feeling you may have in this matter and to endorse the whole idea, and if you do so and go to the Government with that unanimity and union, they cannot fail to consider the reasonableness of this project.I have something else to say in favor of it.The first point is that it goes through nine counties\u2014-Levis, Lotbiniere, Megantic, Arthabaska, Richmond, Sherbrooke, Shefford, Rouville and Chambly.Is there any man from these different counties who could say that such a road would not be a credit to his county ?I think not, and further, you must take into consideration what that means to a county.Every county would be interested in it.Add the populations of these nine great counties and you have 200,000 people who more or less directly would be interested in the project, and who, consequently, would benefit by it.It is in the interests of every element of che community.The road which we all use nine times out of ten is not the railway, but the highway, and the man who uses it most is the food producer, and if you place him in a position to bring his products to the home markets you will do something for the agricultural element of this province ; to get them in a cheaper way, you will do something for the industrial population along this road.The outlined route connects twenty-hve towns and villages, \u2019with a total population of 60,000.\"How this road can be built economically is a question for the Government.Stonepiles are lying along the roads adjacent to it that keep the roads bad in winter.If they were crushed and put in the road in the shape of macadam that would be an advantage.That is only one point of its economic side.What is the result when we have good highways ?If we came here to-day with a project which would ask the inhabitants to double their tax rent to build this road you would, no doubt, hesitate, but if I tell you that by making this road you will reduce the cost of marketing your produce by one-half, you would stop to consider it.To haul one ton a mile in the old country costs 10 cents, here it costs 25 to 30 cents, and the whole reason is simply because they have better highways there than we have here.These figures are the experience of practical men.\"By having such a route you could get on to it a month earlier every spring.There are other sides to it.I have mentioned the economic side, of the interest to the industrial and farming populations, and I may mention the tourist.Would the farmer go back to scythes when he has a mowing machine ?Is the transportation of this country going to stop because we have automobiles ?They are here to stay and the highway is the King\u2019s highway.We can walk, drive in an oxcart, in a double team or use an automobile.If the party using the road keeps within the limit of the law there is nothing to prevent him from using it.Thousands of people from the United States come up into Canada every year.They spend a portion of their time and a considerable amount of money.They realize that here we have a great mining and agricultural district, also a magnificent health resort, and those who have been to the summit of Mount Orford have seen their reflections through the mirrored surface of fourteen great lakes, and if the road only gave access to those tourists it would be for that one purpose worth all it would cost.\"What would a highway 200 miles long mean for the rural mail delivery and for the schools ?Every one within five or ten miles would benefit by it.It would be an encouragement for the institutions that we have.I have placed before you the main arguments in favor of this project.It is entirely feasible and in keeping with

LETTERS CONTAINING RED PEPPER OR SNUFF.London, Feb.7.\u2014The Cabinet Ministers are all getting \"peppered by post\u201d by the suffragettes.The trick consists in sending letters containing red pepper or snuff.Every Cabinet Minister has received this attention and one Parliamen tary under-secretary was blinded foi nearly two hours by pepper which blew1 into his eyes when he opened a packet.It is becoming usual for the minis ters to hand over unstamped letters to their secretaries to be opened, for the suffragettes missives are usually not stamped.The secretaries are naturally cautious, but they have not always escaped.Two days of getting doses of snuff or pepper have been tried.One is to send a small box with a spring which scatters the powder as soon as the box is opened.The other way is to enclose the powder in a letter which is fixed rather tightly in the envelope, so as to require effort to pull it out.The result Is that the powder is thrown Into the victim\u2019s face.-\"\u20144- BOMB J WEAPON Two Special Constables Were Injured as Result In New York TURKS ADMITS LOSING 5000 MEN IN FIGHTING AT GALLIPOLI No Details of Battle Reported to Have Taken

Once London, Feb.7.\u2014(Special) \u2014 The/ Constantinople correspondent of the1 Times says it is believed that the Turkish fleet on Wednesday and Thursday bombarded tbe Bulgarian positions on the coast near Rodosto.It is reported that the Bulgarians withdrew last night, after burning Rodosto, where the Ottoman troops effected a landing.REPORTS ARE VAGUE.London, Feb.7.\u2014(Special) \u2014 Reports of even few incidents in the Balkan war received here are viewed with considerable skepticism, since it is well understood that they merely reflect views of respective army headquarters desire to spread.Yesterday\u2019s report from Constantinople of losses inflicted by the Turk sh fleet in \u2018the Bulgarian army advancing through the neck of the peninsula of Gillipoli is to-day declared unfounded by the Bulgarian war office at Sofia.The Bulgarian staff asserts also that an Ottoman force which attempted yesterday to advance from the Tchatalja lines in the direction of Izzedin was quickly repulsed by the Bulgarian troops, and compelled to retreat behind the lines, after suffering heavy losses.BOMBARDMENT OF ADRIANOPLE.London, Feb.7.\u2014(Special) \u2014 The bombardment of Adrianople continues without any appreciable advantage being scored by either combatant.The military experts here doubt whether the allies, even if they secured firm foothold on the shore of the Sea of Marmora, possess sufficient strength in siege guns to overcome the powerful defenses along the Dardanelles\u2019 Straits even oq the European side, to say nothing of still stronger forts on the Asiatic side of the channel, which alone would be able to bar passage of tbe Greek fleet from the Aegean Sea to.Sea of Marmora.In Germany it is asserted that in the event of operations of allies actually threatening the forts dominating the Dardanelles\u2019 Straits, and which serve as first bulwark of Constantinople, the great European powers possibly would abandon their position as mere spectators.ROUMANIA MAKES CLAIM.Bucharest, Roumania, Feb.7.\u2014 The Roumanian Government to-day instructed its minister to Bulgaria to approach the Bulgarian Government with a view to arrange for resumption of negotiations between the two countries in regard to the frontier question and settlement of Rou-mania\u2019s territorial claims.The Roumanian minister at Sofia will also urge on the Bulgarians the necessity of bringing the matter to a speedy conclusion.-4- SIR RODOLPHE FORGET DENIES REPORT.Ottawa, Feb.7.\u2014Sir Rodolphe Forget stated last night that there was no truth whatever

Feb.7.\u2014A mob demonstrating in the interest of the garment makers on strike from shops in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn employed a bomb as a weapon in their renewed warfare that the police tried to check yesterday.Edward Hartman and John Hopp, two special officers guarding a shop affected by the strike, were seriously hurt by glass and scrap iron contained in the infernal machine, and were taken to a hospital.They were knocked senseless when the explosion wrecked the front of the building, precipitating a panic among the operatives.A police sergeant and five patrolmen were beaten by the inob.Reserves arrived in a patrol waggon, and dispersed the strikers after a struggle in which five men and two girls were made prisoners.A thousand operatives returned to work in a number of shops throughout the city yesterday, after remaining on strike for more than a month.All their demands, including better pay and shorter hours of work, were granted, their leaders said.CONSULAR AGENT

immediately after .this the blood is brought forth by the j aged canon.At this moment the sane- ! tuary gates are thrown open and as i the people press on and fill every ; jnch of space I take my stand with other fortunate osjsb on the very step of the altar.Now as the blood is held up before the people I gaze closely at It, for now it is only about one foot distant from my eyes.\u201cIt occupies about half the globular bottle and -when turned upside down remains perfectly fixed.The blood shows no more sign of being liquid than so much cold, hard, dark red sealing wax.\u201cFrom now on till the liquefaction this .solid blood is held up in full view of the.2,000 spectators.No one touches the relic except the aged prelate who holds It and .Ipom time , to 1 ROYAL Bakins Powder .AbsoMtelyPyre Royal Baking Powder is indispensable to finest cookery and to the comfort and convenience of modem housekeeping.Royal Baking Powder makes hot breads, cakes and pastry wholesome.Perfectly leavens without fermentation.Full instructions in the \u201c Royal Baker and Pastry Cook\u201d book for making all kinds of bread, biscuit and cake with Royal Baking Powder.Gratis to any address.ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO., NEW YORK Ome turns it upsiae uown to onserve the first signs of the prodigy.As the time goes one the people become mon anxious, the prayers are redoubled.At the first notice of the liquefaction : hush falls upon the throng, the by slanders press more closely and strain their eyes to see the transformation.The fortunate ones, likè myself, at close range can plainly see the color of the blood growing more lively, the inclination of its surface changing when the phial is ever so slightly tilted, and In a few seconds the complete liquefaction takes place.\u201cAt this juncture, w'hen there is no longer the least doubt about the verification of the miracle, one of the assisting ministers waves a white handkerchief to the choir loft, a thrill of joy is felt through the congregation, countenances change their expressions of anxiety Into that of satisfac-, tion and heartfelt sighs of \u201cDeo gratlas,\u2019 are heard on all sides.Sultan's Early Life Perhaps the most remarkable fact concerning the Sultan of Turkey, Mehmed V., is that for thirty-three years, during he reign of Abdul.Hamid, he was a prisoner of state, being permitted intercourse with a few servants and dependents only.No one dared salute him and It was risking death to exchange a word with one of his servants.A few years before the long imprisonment ended a number of military cadets were sent into exile because one of them had given a light for his cigarette to a man sitting near them an a tram car.The man, it turned out, was a member of the suite of the Imprisoned lull\u2019 apparent AKCHUUKL as student Heir to the Throne of Austria Pursuit Studies at Stonyhurst The famous seminary at Stonyhurs\u2019;, Lancashire, has the distinction of liou> big his Imperial highness Francl.f?Charles, Archduke of Austria, and heir to the Austrian throne.He e>) tered the college as a \"philosopher.\u2019\u2019 Upon its rolls the institution ha\u2019;

was supposed to he read during 10 days of a plague that visited Florence in 1348.In 1413 King Henry V.succeeded his father on the throne of England.In 1513 the Battle of Flodden Field was fought and James IV.of Scotland was defeated\tand slain\twith the flower of Scottish\tchivalry.In 1613 Michael\tRomanoff\tbecame Czar of Russia, thus founding the existing dynasty.In 1713 came the signing of the treaty of Utrecht terminating the wars of Queen Anne.Lhis treaty secured the Protestant successor in this country, separated the French and Spanish Crowns, and enlarged the British possessions in America.A century ago witnessed \u201cthe battle of nations\u2019\u2019 at Leipzig, when Napoleon, with an army of 160,000 men, met the allied forces of Austria, Russia and Prussia, numbering 240,000; and of the 80,000 slain upwards of one half were Frenchmen.In the same year was Richard Wagner, the composer, born.Other notable men born in 1813 were : Isaac Pitman, inventor of Phonography; David Livingstone, the great missionary explorer; and Henry Ward Beecher, the noted divine.\u2014The hydroelectric companies 0n the Canadian side of Niagara Falls are all extending thur plants for the utilization of all the water available for power purposes under the existing treaty between Canada and the United States.The development of the American companies, however, is practically at a standstill, -as they are now using all the water so far allotted to them by the Secretary of War.The United States Government ¦ shows no inclination at present to ;

of this meeting.Never in the history of the province of Quebec has such a representative gathering met together to discuss a work of such national importance.\u201d (Loud applause.) MR.PAUL T0URIGNY.Mr.Paul Tourigny was the next speaker and his remarks were in French corroborating a large portion of what Dr.Hayes had just said.He accentuated and impressed upon the French portion of the gathering the essential fact that each and every man could not hope at once to have macadamized roads pass his door but that this improved highway, which this meeting desired, formed the backbone of a system to which other side roads could be linked up.MR.BULLOCK M.L.A.Mr.Bullock, M.L.A., followed.He had heard someone say during the last session'of the Province of Quebec that the rural municipalities of the Province were not interested in good roads.He did not believe the statement then and neither did he by any means believe it now in the face of such an assembly as the one before him.He did not anticipate such a large and important meeting; he was exceedingly pleased to be present and he thought before many years this great grand Province of Quebec would be endowed with good roads and highways from one end to the other.He congratulated the originators of this movement and was glad it was taking tangible form.He had the honor to represent one of the good old counties in Quebec Province at the Legislature and if it were his lot to interview the Government in any way on behalf of the movement, he assured them he would do his utmost and use his best influence in an effort to attain the great object for which they had met.There would he a good deal of discussion before the definite routes were decided, hut the great thing to remember was that the Government had become more and more interested in their work and would take up their suggestions and consider them in the light of the whole Province.The Government bad to represent the best interests 0f the entire Province and he could safely say their section would he well considered.There was nothing more important at the present time than the good roads question.He believed Quebec was one of the best Provinces in the Dominion.He had gone fr0m shore to shore, had visited the North West, the Province of Ontario and the Eastern Provinces, and every time he returned home he was compelled to say that Quebec was one of the grandest and most promising Provinces in the Dominion.Thousands of millions 0d dollars had been spent on railroads and they were now reaping the benefit, and the time had come when they must build roads.The Province of Ontario had built great roads and had developed accordingly.The same thing was true in the New England States and it would be true in the Province of Quebec.They must work hand in hand and put aside small local differences and endeavor to realize their object.They must all make a concerted effort; the different municipalities must be willing to make sacrifices if necessary knowing they would wonderfully benefit in the development of this movement.When the road was built it would open up a great country to progress and prosperity, It would help all classes.He was present as a delegate but he should do all he could as a member of the Legislature to encourage the Government to do all it could in the matter.(Applause).Mr.Bullock also spoke in French and referred to the fact that more than one-tenth of the entire Province would benefit by the road proposed.MR.E.ROBERT, M.L.A.Mr.E.Robert, M.L.A., spoke entirely in French stating that he would give his unqualified support to the project in season and out of season, in Parliament and out of Parliament.He spoke as a farmer and to the farmers.He pointed out to them the great benefit that agriculture would derive through the stoppage of the great leak that now occurs in the revenue of the average agriculturist through the drawback and handicap of bad roads between his farm and the home market.He also mentioned that the wear and tear of horses, harness and rigs amounted for each farmer to more than $100 per year.These good roads could not by any stretch of the imagination cost a tithe of that.MR.E.W.FARWELL.Mr.E.W.Farwell, President of the Associated Board of Trade, was the next speaker.He was very pleased to have the opportunity of extending to the meeting, on behalf of the progressive citizens of Sherbrooke who composed the Sherbrooke Board of Trade, congratulations for the work they had done in organizing that great concourse.He believed that was one of the greatest representative meetings ever held in the Eastern Townships.They all owed a debt to the Chairman and his «confreres for starting that movement.Great advantages would accrue to the districts represented by the adoption of a good roads policy.The fact that delegates were present from every section of the counties was evidence that they were convinced the policy was a good one.Some people said the East was dead.That meeting was evidchcc that the Eastern Townships was not dead and that they were out to do and act for themselves.One of the great questions that had been stirring the E.T.Board of Trade was the question of emigration and repatriation and one of the arguments used was' the fact that many young people and in some cases old 'people vrere leaving the farms on account of the bad roads.When they got good roads throughout the Eastern Townships the farming community would be brought here to the centre.Ho believed they were too modest in the, Eastern Townships and did not ask for enough, and as a proof of that lie referred them to the estimates qf the Federal Government.No less tba^ C $53,000,000 is set down on capital account for public works.The Eastern Townships is going to receive less than $75,000 simply because they were too modest to ask for what they ought to receive.Let them not make that mistake regarding the Good Roads movement.He believed Sir Lomer Gouin and his progressive Government would recognize their claims and grant anything reasonable they asked.F.T.SAVOIE, EX.-M.P.Mr.F.T.Savoie, ex-M.P.in a most impressive manner delivered the prophecy that in 15 or 20 years they and their children would have good roads throughout the length and breadth of this Province.His words, coming as they did from a business man who had found it necessary to voluntarily relinquish politics for his business carr ed with them great weight among his compatriots.MR.HENRI PEPIN.Mr.Henri Pepin, Mayor of Artha-baskaville, pledged his support and adhesion to the project under consideration in a few well chosen and eloquent words.RESOLUTION ADOPTED UNANIMOUSLY.The resolution as given above was then put to the meeting and carried unanimously amid a scene of unusual enthusiasm.SETTLE DISPUTES BY ARBITRA-, TION A suggestion by the Chairman was sanctioned by the meeting that in case of any disagreement 0r dispute in any municipality along the route, that the matter should be settled by arbitration or left to the decision of the Government Engineer.APPOINTMENT OF OFFICERS.Mr.V.E.Morrill, Sherbrooke, moved, and Mr.P.T.Tourigny seconded a motion \u2018\u2018That the temporary officers become the permanent officers of this organization and continue until the purposes of this meeting have been accomplished or their successors are elected.\u201d This was put and carried by acclamation.GREAT ENTHUSIASM AT CLOSE.The meeting then broke up with the greatest enthusiasm on the part of all present, the unanimous opinion being that the Minister of Agriculture and Roads at Quebec will make himself popular with 200,000 people if he grants the request of the Good Roads Congress, which was launched under such favorable auspices at Richmond on Thursday.THE
