The fact that Lord Tweetinnnith
consulted with Sir Edward Grey, the foreign secretary, before repliing to Emperor Willlain‘s letter, was the 91113’ new fact hrouiint out, and it goes far to diminish the criticism of Lord Tweedmouth, because it rc- lieves him of all suspicion of any. thing resembling disloyalty to fiwin
tcrests of the navy.
The character of Emperor William’i- letter is "Of lrencrally understood. The spiciest passage is believed tr: be the reference to Lord Esher, that he had better occupy himself with drain-pipes andkcep his hands ni]

MONTREAL, March 10-Discussing
the interview' which appeared in yes- terday's Witness with Ivnn Voiassoy a Doukhohor, who has coma to Montreal as a student and mission- ary, Dr. J. T. Reid, who has work- ed a great deal amongst these people and has met Volassov in the North- West, expressed the following opin- ion: ‘It is only fair to the Doult- hubor people to explain that Voias- sy, who is now in Montreal, is not a typical Doukhobor, but merely one of the fiinaticnl leaders, of a small
'The lloukhohors as ii. people dis-
countenunce the acts of this fanati- cal minority, and more especially those of their more fanatical leaders. Less than ont- percent of the Donk- hobor pcnplc are on the pilgrimage at Fort William. and these are the more simple-minded, who are easily influenced by extremists of whom Voiassoy is one of the chiei.'
‘Judged by the reprobate minor-
ity,” added Dr. Reid, 'no people could retain a good reputation.”

The Plains of Abraham stand a-
mong the world's immortal battle- fields, as the place where an empire was lost and won in tba first clash of arms, the balance of victory was redrassed in the second, and the hon- our of each army was heightened in both.
Famous as they are, however, the
Plains are not the only battlefield at. Quebec, nor even the only one that is a source of pride to the French- and English-speaking peoples. In less than a century Americans, British, French and French-Canadians took part in four siegas and tive battles. There were decisive actions; but the losing side was never disgraced._ and the winning side was always compos- ed of allied forces who shared the triumph among` them. American Rangers accompanied Wolfe, and French-Canadians helped Carleton to :ave the future Do`minion;` while French and Fr_ench~Canadians to- gether won the day under Frontenac, under Montcalm at Montmorency,aiid under Levis nt., Ste. Foy.
There is no record known-uor_even
\
any legend in tradition-of so many such momentous feats of arms per- formed, on lalid and water, by fleets and armies of so many diilerent peo- ples, with so much alternate victory
and such honour in defeat. and all within a single scene. And so it is no exaggeration of this commemorative hour, but the lasting, well-authen- 'ticated truth to say that, take them
for all in all, the fields of battle at Quebec are quite unique in universal history. f And is not to-'day also unQne as an
opportunity to take occasion by the hand, tu set this priceless ground a- part from the catalogue of common things, and preserve it as an Anglo- Freneh heirloom for all time to come? An appeal to history would be most appropriate to any year within the final decade of the Hun- dred Years Peace between thronee- contending powers of France, the British Empire, and the United States. But 1908 is by far the best year among the ten; Lfor it ~marh the aooeh birthday ol the ouuuuu which has become the senior of all the oversee self'-governing domiiiiona

Wfth him were the future Lord St. Vincent, the future Captain Cook, who made the dist British chart of the River, and several more who rose to high distinction.
