A Statement Which Seeins to do Justice to the Interesting Occasion,

The staternent in the Liberal ress that Mr. Laurier only accepted a kmgathood at

| the urgent Srequest of the Queen does not quite do justice to the situation. The

| facts are that Mr. Laurier met the Queer while she was going around te see person-

| ally that the jab lee decorations were ail right for the procession. Her keen eve a

| once detected that the Canadian premier | was out keeping with his surroundings. He had no decoration. She demanded the | reason and was told that, like Sir. Richard Cartwright, Sir Oliver Mowat, Sir Heori

i Joh de lLotbinterre aud other demc- eratie _liberala, Mr. Laurier was | averse to the couferr.ng of Knigathood on Canadians. There is a strain ot Elizab-th- fan nature in the Queen, and with a remark tnat she would soon Change that, she | summoned the heutenant of the tower. | Mr. Laurier was seized aod hurried to that prison of sad memories, which so | maoy men notable in Knogland’s annals | hay e entered, vever to quit’ its portals in | live. t he Traitor’ Gate” was opened; {the heaisman was at his post, with his axe specially sharpened for work on a thin mans neck. Mr. Laurier was given his | choice; the bloek ora G.C. M. G. He hesitated, and it seemed te annoy the now |really angry sovereign. Toe heade- man grinned; he would, he thought, yet have an Opportunity in the jubilee year to show that his office was not a sinecure survival of a past age. But achange came over Mr. Laurier’s face. He was think- ing of home, of Mr. Blair and his other

colleagues struggling to jam the Drum-

Mr. Greenshieids waiting and wondering if that $900,000 profit would ever fall into his pocket, of the villainous tory members with their nefarious schemes for preterring the public interest to the private gain of political speculators. He weakeued, and who could blame him. He woaid yield; he would not leave his dear colieagues to their divisions just when they were expect- ing to make something. He would take a knighthood; he would take Scotch, Bass’, anything. But the Queen had taken another idea; one knighthood would not do her. She would have a regular jubilee of it; she would coufer honors on four Canadian Liberal ministers or the headsman would blunt his new- edged hatchet. The cable was called into operation, and the wminisiers at Ottawa hastily held council. They, too, hated kaighthoods, but they loved and needed Laurier. Lots were cast, and Sir Richard Cartwright, Sir Uliver Mowat and Mr. Davies were found to be the victims. They sacrificed their principles for their friend. Their decision was wired to London. Mr. Laurier received the accolade there aod then. He was decorated, like the other institutions. He is nowa G. C. M. G, and will never be free from the affliction. It will be engraved on his tomb. But who can blame him? Life is dear, and the splendid self-sacrifice of his colleagues, Cartwright, Mowat and Davies, will be an example cf love among politi- ciane that exceedth a brother’s for future generations of Canadians to read about and wonder at. And if anybody does not believe thie story he iw ascoffer and will not believe that liberals hate titles, and may now believe that the queen makes

The Indianapolis Journal prints this interesting story conceruing ex-President Harrison’s forthcoming book: General Harrison has jnst completed the revition Mf his articles which have appeared in the La lies’ Home Journal, making extended notes and additions to them. little «tory in copnection with both articles and publication. When the arrangement for the articles was made with General Harrison by Eiward W. Bok, editor of the Ladies’? Home Journal, the General was paid for them, with the understanding that when they were put into book form the magazine was to share the rovalties accru- ing therefrom. Mr. Bok,however,of his own accord, generously released General Harri- son from paying him any royalty, for the reason, a8 he states, tbat by the publication of the articles by Gereral Harrison the subscription list of his magazine was en- larged many thousands. The profits to the Ladies’ Home Journal were more than the publishers of the magazine anticipsted and in view of this Mr. Bok asks nothing further. General Harrison placed the disposition of his book in Mr. Bok’s hands. The best offer came to the editor from the Scribner’s, and to them Mr. Bok gave the book for his distinguished con- iributor. General Harrison’s revision of the book has just been completed, and the volume wil] appear in the autumn.
