TORONTO. Jilly 7. -——'ln1 a. des- psch from Ottawa, The Toronto Star reports Right Hon, W.

‘The Star quotes ‘Mr King as tol- lows:

"There is no reason why any ex- ception should be taken to the ap- pointment of Lord Wililingdon as Governor General of the Dominion in succession to Baron Bying. An- nouncemenlt of his aprpollll-mfiiit has been received with general ap- proval throughout the Dominiou. I think that this appointment has been made in the manner followed in the osse of his p-edecee-sors, naimelymy the submission of names by the British Government and by ministerial approval of one of chose names. This approval has been mutually granted."
