THE DAILY EXAMINE DECEMBER 10, 1900 owe + NOTES AND COMMENTS. Ex-Curer Justice DeVILLiers, of Cane Colony, and Paul Botha, an ex-nember of the Orange Free State Volksraad, haveissued public appeals to the fighting leaders ef the Boers to lay down their arms and allow the restoration of peace. This is a good sign. Tak following lines from Shake- Speare are applicable in the present etection contest “Thrcais he armed that hath his quarrel just ; ** And le but naked, though locked usin steel ‘* Vitnwse conscience with injustice is corrupt.’’ For the new winter uniforms which the German Government has erdered for -the China troop, the khaki color is discarded for a new eolor termed “field grey.”’ This is alight greenish-grey, witha certain proportion of white, which looks better than khaki, and is equally indistinguishable on the field. Tim Queen's speech at the open- ing of the present session of Parlia- ment was as fo] ows :— * My Lords and Gentlemen : “It has become necessary to make further provision for the ex- penses incurred by the operation of my armies in South Africa and China. [| have summoned you to hold a special session in order that, you may give your sanction to the enactments required fer this pur- pose. You will not enter into other public matters requiring your atten- tion until the ordinary meeting of the parliament in the spring.”’ THe committee of the Corn Ex- Chase nas added fits voice to that ef the council of the Board of Traue in a demand that efforts be put forth to secure for Canadian farm products an entrance into the Ger- man market on the same footing as other nations. It is remarked by the Montreal Gazette that the one accomplishment of the Laurier Gov- ernment in the field of our foreign trade is being moreand more felt as a grievance. The worst of the trouble, too, is that it will not be easy to restore the old conditions. It is one thing to splurge intoa difficulty ; it is quite another to come successfully out of it. | SPRAKING of the people of Aus- tralia, Bishop Courtney describes them as menof great energy, whose whole thought is to make their na- tive land prosperous They. are for Australia first, second and last, and today they are making rapid strides in advance. Naturally hospitable, they dideverything in their power to make Canada’s representatives, stay as pleasant as possible, and their efforts met with the highest success. The war in Africa has done wonders tO bring about a friendly feeling towards Canada. The sending of contingents to the fropt by the two most important colonies of the empire has tended to make toth feel that they have something in common, and to this spirit Bishop Courtney attributes not a little cf theinterest manifest- ed in hisivst. the Australians were most loyal in their feelings to- wards the Mother Country, and the | war has done much tocement the whole island on a firmer political basis. The corresponient of the Chicago Record in London says: ‘Cecil Rhodes asthe pacifier of South Africa promises to be one of the realities of the near future in British Imperial affairs.
