Malgre the almanac, the merry month of May has commenced, in Paris at least, with more than a re miniscence of the traditional March, but that is not the subject I have in mind. There is now hardly a significant date in the calendar of which one could not say, with unimpeachable truth, that “the times have changed.” The first of April, once set apart by the ancient Greeks as a day on which to com memorate the futility and littleness of human affairs, when those in high places found their seats usurped by boisterous buffoons, and judges, vacating the bench, submitted to mock trials at the instance of rowdy ragamuffins, is now honoured with the old enthusiasm, but none of the old spirit, only in the booby-traps and practical jokes of the schools, and other places where shoots the young idea. St. Valen tine, too, is shorn of his glory; his tender name is now chiefly associated with “ugly ones” and the banal humour of the halfpenny “comics,” and around the sacred imagery of Christmas looms the plump turkey and grins the obese pudding. The fading reality of these festivals, in their original sense, may be viewed with more or less regret according to one’s personal feelings, but the slow decease of the May-Day festival, once expressive of our kin ship with wild Nature and all the charms of wood land, field, and meadow, can hardly be viewed with out a sigh. Tennyson drew the line beneath the ideas associated with the old festivals of the village green, and the poet to ,'yvhbm the throes of con federating Labour will assuredly give birth will im mortalise, sooner or later, the new ideas now as sociated with the opening day of the hopeful month. So much by way of introduction. The first of May is now generally recognised as the date on which the world’s workers are entitled with more or less freedom to “blow off steam”; when the gage of the coming battle may be flung down to Capital—with the inevitable big “C”—by the closing ranks of advancing Labour,—with an equally aggressive big “L.” Nowhere else on the earth’s surface do the workers show such magni ficent solidarity as in emancipated France but, de spite the threats of the past few months, culminat ing in shrieks at the time of the recent postal strike, and notwithstanding the loud trumpetings of the labour journals, the first of May in France has passed off very much as usual. Paris was practic ally normal, but here and there in the provinces sporadic outbreaks occurred which the police easily dealt with. Says M. Lepine, the ubiquitous prefect of police, “long experience has shown me that re volutions announced a long time beforehand never materialise. We made preparations, however, to deal with 100,000 revolutionaries, but as a matter of fact I do not suppose that the total number of demonstrators exceeded 12,000.” Everybody expected that “King” Pataud, the secretary of the Electricians' Society, and the most able leader of the army of revolt, would signalise the occasion by some startling coup, but if so the project fizzled out or was not seriously contemplated. A significant incident, which may have interesting consequences, occurred at Rouen, where M. Charles Marck, the treasurer of the General Confederation of Workers, was arrested by the authorities for some wild and whirling words spoken at a labour meeting in that city, at which a police official at tended and took shorthand notes of the words used by the somewhat excited speakers. Other arrests to the number of seven, incidental to Labour Day, were also made, but in the, case of M. Marck it Pfund ’g unskimmed milk.. 1st quality only; Pasteurised and purified, there fore free from bacilli of any kind. Delivered free. Depots in all parts of the city. Pfund’s Dairy, Dresden, awffe would appear at first blush as if the authorities had made a tactical mistake, as the incarceration of such a prominent official, in the present heated condition of the labouring classes, is likely to cause trouble. So far as I can gather, the incriminating words used by M. Marck, in a speech on the anti militarist propaganda of the Confederation, were as follows“Our anti-militarist ideas are permeat ing the minds of the young men who are taken for service. The good seed of anti-militarism which we have sown will assuredly germinate.” M. Marck will have, as he undoubtedly seeks, an opportunity of explaining what these words mean. GREAT UNIONIST VICTORY. (Daily Record Correspondent.) London, May 5. The result of the polling at Stratford-on-Avon has just been announced, as follows:— Mr. P. S. Foster (Unionist). . . 5374 Mr. Joseph Martin (Liberal) 2747 Capt Kincaid-Smith (Ind. Lib.) . . . 479 Unionist majority 2148 The Liberals won this sfcat at the General Election in 1906, when Captain Kincaid-Smith contested it for the party. The results of former elections are as follow:— 1906. Cpt. M. Kincaid-Smith (R.) 4,321 Mr. P. S. Foster (U.). . . , 4,173 148 1892. Mr. Freeman-Mitford (U.) . 4,157 Mr. G. S. Warmirigton (R.) 3,239 Unionist majority . . . 864 Radical majority . . In 1900 Col. V. Milward (U.) was returned un opposed. The contest this time was chiefly remarkable for the attitude Of the Independent Liberal candidate; through whose resignation the seat became vacant. Captain Kincaid-Smith resigned, he said, simply to refight the seat as an uncompromising advocate of compulsory military service. He pleaded for the support of the Unionists in his cause, but the party managers decided that the circumstances were not such as to permit this; and while Unionists gener ally sympathised with compulsory military service, they were not prepared to sacrifice a possible seat for the sake of a principle which had not yet per meated the country. It will be seen from the very insignificant number of votes polled by Captain Kincaid-Smith that the electors of Stratford are not strongly in favour of taking up arms for their country. ENGLAND’S DESIRE. London, May 6. Speaking at a dinner given by the Newspaper Society on Wednesday evening, Sir Edward Grey, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, said: “So far as the mutual relations of the Powers are concerned, we have got into comparatively smooth water. We are laying peacefully at anchof> r as it was our wish to do from the first. We keep matters of foreign policy apart from party questions. We are conscious that, owing to the immense extent of the Empire, the demand on our energy is so great that we have no wish for further expansion. We wish to develop the Empire and to live at peace with our neighbours. What we want is, not disputes, but a calm foreign policy.” LIBERTY OR TYRANNY? STERN MEASURES AT CONSTANTINOPLE. Constantinople, May 6. With the overthrow of Abdul Hamid and the victory of the Constitutionalists it cannot be said that the liberty previously advocated by the re formers is acutely perceptible just yet. The Chamber met in session yesterday, and the occasion was sig nificant in that it proved the great influence wielded by Mahmoud Shevket Pasha, the military dictator, who is using Parliament as the instrument for the commission of his will. He accused the Albanian deputies Ismail and Mu fid, both members of the Liberal Union, of planning a rebellion in Albania. The Chamber took cognisance of this grave charge and handed the matter over to a Committee for enquiry. The President further stated that the Grand Vizier, acting upon the advice of Shevket Pasha, re commended the Chamber to draft a press and strike law, as before this was done the state of siege now hanging over the capital could not be safely abo lished. The Grand Vizier announced that the Sultan Mohammed would take the oath of loyalty to the Constitution before assembled Parliament subsequent to the ceremony of girding on the Sword. In the further course of the sitting the assembly discussed the revision of the Constitution, and par ticularly the prerogatives of the Sultan. The debate centred around the advisability of dissolving the Chamber in the event of disagreement with the Go vernment. The negotiations between the Orient Railway and the Government Commission have thus far had no result. The Minister of War has addressed a letter of thanks to the management of the railway for its efficiency in transporting troops during the recent crisis. The Imperial Hatt (Rescript) announcing the ap pointment of the Grand Vizier and the Sheikh-ul- Islam issued yesterday contains further assurances of the Sultan’s intention to uphold the Constitution and the Sheriat laws. Salonika, May 6. Ex-Sultan Abdul Hamid is reported to have re covered from the effect of the late excitement and to be completely composed again. Nothing is known of an intention on the part of the Government to convey him to Monastir. SIGNIFICANT FINANCE. London, May 5. The 4£'vo loan of the town of Helsingfors placed on the market this morning at the issue price of 93^0 was immediately subscribed and closed. Later in the day some of the scrip changed hands at If premium. ATTEMPT TO WRECK A WARSHIP. New York, May 5. A sensation has been caused by the statement that a large bolt was recently found in the tur bines of the scout cruiser “Salem.” A close scutiny of the scene of the discovery has made it clear that the bolt did not get there as the result of an accident, but was deliberately placed in position with the intention of wrecking the engines. The “Salem” is fitted with Curtis turbines, and recently participated in test runs against the “Chester,” fitted with Parsons turbines, and the “Birmingham,” with reciprocating engines. On that occasion the “Chester” was first, and the “Birming ham” last
