M. Lanos, of the Royal Military College, Kingston, are having a controversy regarding the right of PFrench-Canadians to fly the tri-color of France on their religious and festive 'occasions. Prof. Lance in a letter to La Presse, replying to its criticism of a recent reference he made to the matter, based his argu. ments against the use of the {ri-color in Canada on heraldry, interuational law, history and tradition, French. Canadians, he claims, have no right to use the flag of France, which is his native land, although the profes sor is mow a thorough Canadian. La Presse devotes three columns to reply to Prof. Lancs, and its chief argument is that after the Crimean war a British man-of-war brought a triceolor to Quobee as a compliment to the French on account of the Cri mean alliance, and the flag was adopt ed by the French-Canadians as a ve sult. La Presse claims, also, that there is no official record that the tlour-de-lys, the old French flag, was ever used in Canada. Prof. Lanos refuses to accept the in cident of the British manof-war bringing the tri-color of France to Quebec as any reason why that flag should be used by the Freuch-Cana- dians, He says that the reason he has written on the matter is to en deavor to remove a cause of friction in Canada ovey the use of the tri in Quebec province, where, he lag has no right * to color declares, that be flown, KING MANUEL IL OF PORTUGAL Alleged to be a prisoner In the hands of the revolutionists.
