Editorial Note and Comment â€"The bammet to Premier Hardy is promising to be a bigz affeir. â€"We notice some Russian papers are boldly threatening to throw in their aid with France sbhould a Francoâ€"Br®â€" ish s‘raggle take place. Will our Amâ€" crican cousins be as generous to Britâ€" ain as Britain was to them last Spring? We shall see. â€"(; W. Ross spoke in Mt. Forest on Monday night to a large audience in the interest of the candidature of the Hon, Mr. Gibson. _ His showing up of the weakness of the Opposition contenâ€" tions was strong and statesmanlike and his oft repeated invitation will bear repeating : why dont they move tor a parliamentary enquiry ? â€"The Montreal Star, the Toronto World, and other Conservative papers are predicting a Dominion election beâ€" fore long. _ They should let Laurier know. _ Nothing, it seems to us, would justify such a course except possible ‘differences with the American Commisâ€" sioners in the Quebec Conferencee when it might be useful to show they h>d it m the â€"Several of our exchanges are callâ€" ing attention to the inbhumanity of sending our aged poor to the common jaii to herd with criminals and urging the necessity that rests upon County Councillors to make provision for this class by providing a House of Refuge. Will some one give us the reasons why our County Councillors from the South have generally opposed this scheme ? South Grey is not lacking in the tenderâ€" er feelings we hope, and Councillors will be guided by the wishes of the people. â€"To day, Tuesday, may be a fateâ€" ful day in France. The turbulent eleâ€" ments in French society are feeling strong enough to dare the government The righteous indignation of a large secticn of the lawâ€"abiding people aâ€" gainst the government on acceount of the Dreytas affair, adds another comâ€" plication to the situation. The governâ€" ment atraid to move with the popular will in tear of the army is the most dangerous feature of all, for, in their extremity, they may plunge the naâ€" tion into a war with Britain, hoping to divert by foreign eomgllications. a diâ€" saster their home troubles are sure to bring. Unbappy Faance! War with Britain just now would be a repetition of the Spanishâ€"American farce, and, at the close, France would find herself stripped of eyery strategic colony. â€"â€"®mperor William has been dined anmd wined by the Sultan with the greatest magnificence, Wonder how greatest magnificence, the Empress felt at b luncheon by the many whose cunning and ecruelty a shor, time ago carned for him the title of the " Great Assassin"?
