Mr. Bum-assa‘s criticism of the Govern- ment‘s pnlicy in cunnectitm with South African affairs, Lhat it; was an uncon- stitutional and dangerous innovation. and his plea for an absolute recogniâ€" tion of the rights of Parliament, were all very well in the abstract, lmtas the Premier pointed out his amend- ment was innppor-tune and without raismi dietre. It may be readily con- ceded that Mr. Boui-assa made out the best possible case that could be pre- §ent.ed_in support of his contentions: But the fact that his moderate and well delivered speech, though atten- tively listened to, signally failed to carry conviction or even to secure sympathetic recognition, is most con- clusive evidence of the correctness of the. Premier's criticism. A MODEL OF NOBLE ELOQUENCE. of Sir 'Wilfrid Lunrier’s reply there are no two opinions existing. \Vith anunanimitynsbure as it is signifi- cant the. members of the. House and the press of the country applauded and endorsed his utterances. The Mail- Empire declared “his utterances met with marked approval from Conserv- atives as well as Liberals and his per- nration drew forth a tumult of ap- plause in which even Sir Charles Tupper vigorously joined,” while even the poor old Montreal Star was con» pelled to admit editorially that “upon the whole Sir \Vilfrid acquitted him- self very ably.” Nor Was this excel- lent effect confined to the Canadian public ; the, fame of that speech quick- ly crossed the Atlantic, and the Lon- don Times next morning declared that. “ The speech would rank high in any assembly in the world as a model of noble eltfluence, but it is not the language of the Canadian Premier's address which will make it live in the annals of the empire. The spirit. which glows through it and the thoughts which underlie itareprcg- nant with great issues for England and mankind. Sir \Vilfrid Laurier, the French Roman Catholic Premier of a Selfâ€"governing federation in which British Protestants are in the major- ity. has expressed more faithfully and more truthfully than any otherstates- ‘ man who has yet spoken, the, temper of the new imperial patriotism foster- l ed into selfâ€"consciousness by the war. lVVe look forward to a day not far ‘ distantin the life of nations when a Boer Premier of the Smith African Dominion shall kindle with a. like de- votion to the British flag.” .A “'ORD IN SEASON FOR SIR CHARLES. A WORD IN SEASON FOR SIR CHARLES. The above quotation is eminently satisfactory to the Canadian people, and it must he gratifying to the right hon. gentleman himself and his sup- porters. Here is another editorial comment from a leading British jour- nal which will he prettygenerally ad- mitted to be equally accurate and just, though possibly not as flattering to‘ the. subject thewnf. The St. James’ Budget (London, Eng.). says :â€"â€"“ It is a pity that the Canadian Opposition have not suflicient prudence to re- strain Sir. Charles Tupper from his petty attacks upon the present Laurier ministry. The ministry may have faults, but no one can deny that it has pursued an Imperial policy with great fearlessness and vigor; and these per- petual volleys uf absolutely barren criticism directed at a body of men who are doing their best to express the will of the (muutry, are only pro- voking several French-Canadian mem- bers to say things they (in not mean, and under other circumstances wuuld not have said.
