GLORY FOR CANADA,

The greatest glory of the surren-
der of Cronje’s army falls to the lot
of the First Canadian contingent,
together with the Gordon High-
landers and the Second Shropshires.
This will make February 27 ever a
proud day in the history of Canada,
for this is the first war of the em-
pire, outside of Canada, in which
Canadians have taken part. They
were sent to Suuth Africa to repre-
sent their country and they have
done so worthily.

Lord Roberts has proved. himself
as good ashis ward. He. paid a
particular tribute to the Canadian
troops in an interview in London,
prior to his departure forthe «scene
of hostilities. He has given them
every. opportunity, to prove their
mettle in the recent fighting ‘and
has, with warm praise, acknowl-
:edged that they proved worthy of

;, their trust. Lord Roberts’ partial-
ity to the colonial troops proves
that he rises above the narrow, in-
sular prejudices” of those British
army .officers .who have been ac-
customed to question whether col-
onial volunteers had any right to
call themselves soldiers. He has
shown appreciation of ‘that quality

ds of our’ countrymen and
many millions of our money he
raised the residential qualification to
fourteen years, and even then be-
fore a man is‘qualified to vote: he
must obtain consent ‘in ‘writing
of the majority of voters in his elec-
toral district. | As the Jaw stands
today, children of Uitlander parents
born in Africa‘can’be forved to fight
for the land of their birth al sixteen,
while thy cagnot yet burgher rights

ase -=the’full rights tothe franchise—

before’ they*ate'forty.””

THE ADMIRAL'S VIEW.

Dewey knocks the pins from under
those Gppérients” of :Pre:

tot agreeing to fortify the Nicara-
gua canal. The'admiral ‘said:
“Fortifications? Why, of course

*) not. As. I understand it, the canal

is to be and. should be a neutralized
commercial ipathway between the
two great’ “oceans. “To” fortify it
would simply result in making ita
battleground in case of war. For-
tifications would be pormously €x-
pensive-and’ought ‘ot ‘to be erected.

antee of the neutrality and:‘safety’of
the canal in time of war as well as
in peace.”

EDITORIAL NOTES.

.. The Buffalo Express says that if
the Boers win the price ‘that Portu-
gal will pay for its aid to England
muy be the loss of its African pos-
sessions. Perhaps this is so, but
the chances are.ten to’ one that Por-
tugal is not worrying much overthe
probability of such a loss.—Seattle
P.-I.

The United States is now putting
its forest- reserves on a business
basis by arranging for the sale of
standing timber of a certain size;
in fact, it will treat them. as tree-

farms.

Dr. McKechnie had no more
right to be.-remunerated for his
traveling expenses between Nanai-
mo and Victoria, and vice versa,
than had any ordinary tramp on the
road. Had he been a viember of
the cabinet, with a ‘portfolio, and a
salary attached thereto, there would
have been no ground whatever for
taking exception to’ his conduct.—

Col. Domville, M. P., would wil-|
lingly have acted as' gunner in the

he had only been given permission
to'train them ‘on theescaping major-
general, instead of ‘a Quebec land-
scape.—Toronto Telegram.

KRUGER’S BUNKO| GAME.

Moreton Frewen is an Irish home
ruler who believes the South African
war. is justified. 1n an: interview
at Washington he thus answers the
pro-Boer argument that the Uit-
landers were not compelled to go to
the Transvaal and, if they did not
like the laws, could leave:

“When Kruger in his: letter of
December, 1883, invited foreigners
to come in and develop the mines
his laws provided that every man
after one year of residence there
could vote, and in evidence he ten-
dered before the royal commission,
when Sir Evelyn Wood asked him
whether he agreed tu, extend equal
privileges te all, he said; ‘We

The penalty claimed from Dr.
McKechiie for illegally voting in
the legislature amounts to $33,000
and is still rising.

___ The Province.

Several Canadian newspapers
have fallen into the error of de-
scribing the leader of the Kimberly
relief force'as having been oncecon-
nected with the Northwest mounted
police One paper says his training
in the police’ force may partly ac-
count for his late successes. The
fact is that General French, who
was once in Canada, is now com-
mandant in New South Wales. His
name is George Arthur Frenct. The
hero of the Kimberly march is J. D.
P. French, whe has ‘heretofore
ranked asa brigadier-general in the
cavalry. When eveu the Toronto
Globe confused the two generals,
smaller journals may plead that their,
mistake was excusable,
