SIR WILFRID’S APPREHENSIONS.

(St. John Sun.) Speaking at New Glasgow the other

|; day, Sir Wilfrid Laurier admitted that

the time came todeal with the South Africa question he ‘dil not sp< proach the question without appreben- sion,” or,as the Toronto Globe makes bim say, “without misapprehension.” Whether it was apprehension or misapprehension which troubled the premier, he now takes a mild view of it. What hesaid at the time was that the government had no right and no power to do anything, and nothing would be dome. Speaking appar- ently under the dictation of Mr. Tarte,the premler made it clear thas the govern ment had no inteation to interfere with the warinr Africa.

Sir Wilfrid Laurier has not a gooi polis tical memory, but in 1899 ne had not fore gotten the campaign !nerature is*ued from the party headquarters in 1896. He re

membered the article printed under start- ling headlines iu hig own organ at Quehec; and scattered broadcast in dodgers and handbille throughout ‘he province. Here is the eppeal, head] nes and all :

Do you wish for war?

Three Millions ot Dellers.

For Guar, Cannons and Bayonets.

Ano [mminent Danger for Farmers !

One of old Tuppe:’s whims is imperial federation. Imperial federst on sigaifies ao intimate alliance between England and her colonies in general, especially in Cavada.

One of the conditions of thie alliance would be that in time of war Canada would be called upon to pay its share of the cost in money and men.

As England is nearly always &t war with rome one we would be contisually taxed to find the money,and there would bea constant drain to furnieh the men.

In return England would creave royal baronet , chevaliers ot this and command: ers ot tbat.

But the people would remain chained to the cacnon.

Hardly bad Sir Charles Tupper returu - ed from Englend when be began to pre pare the way for carrying out bis appali- ing project.

England bes been menaced bya diffi

culty with the United States concerning some acres of mining lande which it claims in Venezuelr, In hasie Sir Charler, to impress the officials, orders the purchase in England of guns, cannons, eic, to the amoant of $1,800,000 with the house io session and witoout consulting it.

This was not enough.

He proposes to purchase $3,000,000 worth.

Mr Foster proposed on April 21lat, 1896 (page 6,902 of the H=neard), a resolution author'zing a loaa of $3,000,000 to pay for the purchases made and to be made.

Forty thousand Lee-Enfield rifles and 23,600 carbines of the same make have been orderec for the cavalry. Four bat- terica of six guas each,eome twelve pound- ers, with the necesssry munitions, have al- so been ordered.

= The rifles cost $18 each.

The carbines for the cavalry cost in all $40,000,

be bayonets and their. sheaths cost $4090.

Since then it has been determined to purebase:

Fifty Maxim guns and 200 sets of her- nees for the draft horses.

Four hundred seta of sacdlery for the cayjlry These eost $100 each. They cag,be had for $40 here.

And_ $59,060 is nothing for all the har. ne

With a mejority against the old Gov-

ernment, and yet not a majority of Lib- erale,Sir Wilfrid sought to strengihen himeelf by making up a new party, with a cabinet largely composed of materis] the tlectors had not supplied him with. He

took Mr. Tarte, who had been defeated ; Mr. Dobrll, who wae not elected as an op~ ponrnt of the Conservaive par y, and must of the other portfolios were given to pew men from the Proviucial Gover. - mens, Tbusthe Leurier party didi not Carry & majority of tie popular vote, and the men who lea

With the “independents” within their old party lines again, the outlook should be bright for the Conservatives. Then, the “new L beral”’ party, head:d ty men here- tofore known only in provincial poli- tics decidedly has. not the support of all the old “Liberals” who voted for the Laurier party before, and we are fairly sate in saying they have not won many recruits from the Conservative ranks, There is a class of barnacle, of course, that Clings to any party ship when it is in port, but even they are troubled with a lot of guessing justuow.
