I At this writing we have. not seen

sed limitation of its powers must

sub-amendment, to submit the qfues- tion to the people and in the mean- time do nothing but assert our loy- nltly to the King and tho old flag, cannot command any considerable following. Whereiipori the wise edi- tor of the Montreal Star, disap1 proving of all three plans so far sugb zested, presents one of his own.

Here is the Star`s plan 2 “L`et us authorize Great Britain to

build at once a ccrtain number of ships, t-Tamida' ms-siiining imc payment of tho interest on the cost of their construction. Let the ships he pe- cognizcd as 'uelongilig to Canada; ‘etl them he named after (`-atumlian

provinces and Canadian cities, and let them he manned and ollivered, as far as possible, by the men wliorn we recruit and send over to lie trained in the ways and knowledge of the British nzivy.

"Let us arrange that, on two

years’ notice, should Great Britain .lesire time ‘to replace chem, we may recall any or all of our ships to Canadian waters, and put them under" the control of our Naval Depart-

nicnt, with their Canadian ofiicers and crews conipctciit to handle"them,- ns the traditions of the British navy rniiiire that ivarsliips shall be hund- led."

The Star proceeds to argue, that

by authorising the British Admiralty to expend $25,000,000 't0 $27,000,000, in worships for us, a Cantrdian navy would 'ne in existence in three years time, that is in 1913, the year of coming danger from Germany; that this would mean the addition of twn complete “fleet units" to thu fight- ing forces of the Empire, and would

. cost Canada. only $750,000 a year,-

the interest at 22 per cent on thc capital expnntlitiire,

Hon. George E. Foster brought

Editor McDonald and the Toronto Globe into court, the former for slander and the latter for libel. Tho alleged slander was certain words spoken by McDonald on the public ulablorm during the election against .\lr. Foster. On this clinrgu the judge found there was no case to be submitted to thc jury. The libel suit against The Globe is still going on, and the Toronto papers are, giving full reports of it. The outcome will be awaited with interest, thc end rf the trial being now near.

The proposal _to add it nurses"

The cost will be considerable but with the zealous assistance of the Ladies' Aid and their promised Flag Day; the money will doubtless be forth- coming. A F‘lag Day would be n matter of interest at any time in our loyal community and will he doubly popular when linked with so good a cause.
