AMINER’S attention has been called to aod several occasione, Tre Quebee papers are busy discussing the effect of Sir Wilfrid Laurier’s visit to Pope Leo. Of course the Liberal presa is feeling bad over ite quite too previous talk about Papal hovors for the premier. They didn’t ma‘erialize and now they hint that their leader couldn’t accept them. The Unite, an independent Quebec organ, pokesfun at its Liberal confreres, by showing how ridicul- ous acorner they are in since their grea; democrat eagerly pocketed ail the honors earned by the Conservative party in eight~ een years wheo in England and donned all the trinkets a systematic wire-puller could secure iu France. “Would such a man be likely to refuse any decora- tion the Pove wou ld offer ?” asks the cruel Canadian weekly. And it was announced that a week was to be given to the discussion of the School Question between Laurier and the Pope. One half hour sufficed and the inference drawn is that His Holiness knew too much for Sir Wilfrid aod sent him home promptly to do penance. And itis now an open secret that Mgr. Merry del Val was recalled by the Pope after he became convinced of the character of the so-called Catholic Jeaders with whom he had to deal. The School Question has entered into another phase. It will be interesting to know what took place between the Great Pope and the Superficial Premier and the effect of it all. ss HE FAILED TO REMEMBER. Tut Montreal Gazette is paying its re— spects to Sir Louis H. Davies just now, and its remarks are very much to the point. “The address of Sir Louis to the Canadian trade section of the Londoa Chamberof Commerce,” it points out, “‘was as remarkable for the things left un- eaid as for the things said. He began by pointing out that the foolieh psopie who wanted annexation to the United States had all changed their minds; he did not explain that they were Liberals. But when it came to diacuesing the fast Atlan- tic service; cold storage and the denuncia- tion of the Belgian and German treatier, Sir Louis had the effrontery to claim that these were ideas orginating with the pre sent Liberal Gevernment, although he knows as well asanyone that the initial @teps were taken by their predecessors, when the Liberals were in opposition and gave these projects either open opposition or only half-hearted support. Really this disease of loss of memory which afflicts the members of the present Government is being carried to extremes. Sir Louis Davies ought totake the opportunity ot being in London to consult a specialist.” The remarks of the Gazette need ro elaboration at our hands. Sir Louis, like other politicians of the Grit persuasion, ie slow to give credit where eredit is due. | f iearued that Joe GOLD FROM KLONDIKE Paying Finds by Prospectors— Kallway Through the White Pass.

The Laurier Guvero- ment gave the contract for designing and printing tue bills to @ United States company. ~-The Patriot says that during the late federal election campaign very littl was said about reciprocity. As @ matter of fact, however, the reciprocity cry was used for all that wae in it. Vote for the Liber- als and reciprocity was the Grit slogan in sections where it could be used with effect. —It may be pointed out for the informa- tion of the Patriot that the late goverument did try to negotiate a reciprocity treaty with the United States, and failed in the attempt. The Grits claimed that the Literal-Conservatives did not go the right way about obtaining reciprocity, and led the people to suppose that they conld easily get icifelected. They came into power, ~-and the reciprocity treaty seems further off than ever. —The Montreal Gazette points ont that those theoretical gentlemen who leoked ‘or a cheapening of outward freigbts on Cana- dian produce through the operation of the Liberal tariff securing inward cargoes of irnep and Other heavy inward cargoes, |; will have jooked in vain.
