Pleasant situation —— Spectator, which speaks author itatively on the eubject says: “Were Franceto use her power to de- stroy England’s position 10 South Africa, she must know that not shes, but another power, and one that sbe does not love, would be the gainer. Bui if France will not go to war with us over our policy In South Africa, still less in Germany likely one knows exactly what was the nature lof the agreement made eighteen months ago with Germany, but it may be taken | for granted that things were 80 arranged that German interests should not sufter 10 East Afric. but should be considerably | angmented.” | } + oO pose as the protector of the Boers. No | Germavy snd France being ont the question, there is no other power that is likely to embarass the operations of the British. It is surprising that public opi- nion in the United Statesis not wholly npon the British side, seeing that the essential grievance at the bottom of the whole matter is that abcut which the peo- ple of the American colonies rebelled in the midet of the last centurv, vfz “Taxa- tion without representation” which ‘‘is tyranny.” The Boers have imposed taxes which bear almost wholly upon the Uit- landers in the Transvaal, and they have, in violation of their compact with Great Britain, persistently cheated the Uitland- ers out‘of representation in the Volksraad. I:fis* wonderful, in view of theee two facts, that{any considerable portion of the in- habitants of the United States should side with the Boers and against those upon whore behalf Great Britain has been compelled to take np arms. The war is pre~eminently a war on behalf of c’viliza: tion, liberalism and progress 28 against barbarism, injustice and tyranny. While many thoughtless, well-informed or preju- diced persors in the United States have condemned Great Britain’s action, it is impossible that the nation asa whole can support, in apy way, the pretensions of the autocrat of the Transvaal Republic. —__ «> 4 Be THE MISSION TO QUEBEC. “Wirn what ingenuousness the Ministers of the present Admunistration will lie Hon R. W. Scott, Secretary of Siate, has lately been kept busy denying that he went to Quebec to represent the Federal Goveru~ ment. It has been stated on the most un- deniable authority that he banded in hi® credentiais to the ecelesiastical powers at Quebec as “Secretary of State,” represent~ ing the Government, and he was so anxious to keep well to the fiont “a8 @ representative that Mgr. Fale*nio and the Archbishops of Quebec were im~ peded by him in the discharge of thei reception functions. To make the mattet doubly sure, “‘Le Soliel,” the Government organ at Quebec, expressly says : “In another barouche (immediately be- hind the delegate and Mgr. Marois) were seated Hon. R. W, Scott, Secretary of State, representing the Federal Governs ment and Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the Hon. F. G. Machand, representing the Pro- vincial Government, and the Hon. 8. N. Parent, the City of Quebec.” That onght to be sufficient. To show the Coons would go oo their knees in all sorts of weather, anywhere, to their stay in the Government to any ccn- As Hons, too, prol Dg siderable extent. Fitzpatrick and Dobell were there, and had to take a back seat,we have proof positive that they were only representing their re~ spective selves, while Scott was there, as Secretary of State, in high state, drawn ina baroucbe at the expense of the country, representing the Government of Canada. NOTES AND COMMENTS. —How many little let:ers with the “any litle coolness of misunderstanding [ shall be ready to remedy” poregraph are going through tbe mails to Murray Harbor just now ! —At present the Boers have an advant- age in point of mem bers aod in point of position. The British in Natal have need of good generalship and all their bravery. —It is estimated that 95 per cent of all the magnificent revenues that flow yearly into the coffers of the Boer government is contributed by Uitlanders. The state which the lutter found nearly bankrupt has now an accumulated surplus of some $15,000, 000. —Tbe uneasiness expressed in official centree as to the safety of the Minto after the gales abundantly justifies Tae Examiver’s protest against sending a steamer like that, at such @ season, over ground so storm~ swept and full of danger. A _ practical minister is very much needed in the de. partment of marine. —The elections must be near. A west- ern M. P., with the connivanee of the Public Works Department has a gang of hie disaffected Liberals cutting switches on prospective roads leading to no place in particular. Some of the rods will be useful to beat his own back,—or the pub. lic expression of contempt ie not worth much. —Achort time ago Mr. Tarte lectured Sir Richard Cartwright. He stated that he had never believed in the doctrine of econumy preached by that gallant knight : only “big fools” talk of economy. Then Mr. Tarte turned on the Minister of Finance, Mr. Fielding. That Minieter had allowed one of the Tarte votes to drop out of the estimates of last vession. ‘I do not blame him,” said Mr. Tarte. “He merely does not understand my echeme.” It after- wards turned out that Mr. Blair was diss puting over a railway question with the Canadian Pacific. “I shall give my atten tion to that subject very shortly,” eaid Mr Tarte. Now ‘Tarte is superseding Mr. Borden, and is deciaringthat the Minister’s principal officer, General Hutton, may have togo. “There is no doubt about it,” asthe Mail and Empire says, “Israel rules them all.” ———————E—EEEEE P.
