Branch of the Dominion Alliance.” Because the siatement is not true. Again we challenge The Patriot to preduce the mquired evideuce, and take the hat.

—Mr. McDougall, «f Cape Bretor, made two or three revelations to the house last year in regard to the coir spoadence with Cardinal Rampl , carried on by Mr. Charlo Russel, repreeeuting the premie’, Charlies Russe! being the government eclicitorin London. It turns out that Mr Russel received comething over $17,- 000 last year for services rendered to the Domivion g veroment as eolicitor, There is no charge eet down in the book for serv- ices at Home, but as the O:tawa corres— pondeot ofthe Sun remarks, the other
