A TESTIMONIAL T0 SIR WILFRID.

_ A proposal is on foot to raise u tes- timonial fund of $100,000 for Sir Wilfrid Laurier, “in recognition of his servicesto the country and at the

‘ same time to place him in a position

to devote his time to the public ser- vice without having any anxiety as to the future of. hisfamily.” The Montreal Herald tells that the idea originated with Mr. L. O_David the City Clerk of Montreal, and a life- long friend of the Premier ; that the great difliculiy was to get Sir Wilfrid to give his consent for such a. sub- scription to- be undertaken and to make sure that he would accept the

ttestimoniil; that it was urgenily re-

presented lo the Premier that the. subscription would he strictly limited to a circle of personal friends and ad-. mir-ers, ani_at last he was

_Thereupon a committee was formed

1 *cf which Maypr of;'Mon- treal is chairman. 'that “as soon as Lord Strathcotia and

Mount Royal heard that the commit- tee had organized he wrote warmly endorsing the project and culogising

by offering his cheque for "ten, lifteen or twenty thousand dollars and more if necessary.” With such a promising beginning and the number of Sir Wrlfrid’s personal friends and _ad- mirers whoare willing and able to give, there is little doubt that the testimonial will be speedily realized.

We are not quite sure that the

proposed testimonial will strike' all persons with the same degree of favor, though very muchgmay be said to

ted a worthyand patriotic public man andhecertainly is a rarely gifted one. He was not born to wealt

ll.

and he has for many years devoted

himself to the country’s service so closely as to preclude him from mak- ing money in his profession or , in other callings. Why may not his l friends and admirers who have abund- ant wealth,share it with him in this may if they feel _so disposed? A Possibly one reason for Sir Wilfrid’s

hesitation to consent to allow the sub scription to be undertaken may nave arisen from a memory of ,events not very long in the past. The time was when Sir John Macdonald was the leader of agreat and wealthy party in Canada though he himself was poor inihis wo:-l<i's goods. lie had rendered great services to his party and to the country, yet when a testi- monial fund to him was proposed and raised the moverneur, and in some ca.~es the motivis of the subscribers were severely criticised in the Liberal press. y The testimonials to Sir Hector

Langeviu, Hon John Costigan and others in like manner were made the subject not only of adverse criticism, but in Sir Heczor’s case, of a resolu- lion in parliament. It maybe said these testimonial gifts were gotten up in a. different way or from different

motives to the fund now being raised
