RieI Denounced.

Special to the Glooe.
New YORK, Nov. 21.-George A. Kirk
patrick, speaker of the Canadian house of
commons, now in this city on business,
talked freely to a reporter to-day on the
effect of Riers execution. ''It will not
cause anything more serious than few
bitter speeches and the change OF few
votes in the house of commons when our
parliament meets" he said. This burn
Ing the premier in effigy is the work of
few excitable Frenchmen. They do not
care as much for Riel as many suppose.
Their object is simply to make political
capital. In Ontario even Catholics were in
favor of his execution. The province of
Quebec caused pretty much all the demon
straton that has been made in the way of
protest Riel was no patriot and did not
purposes. He was murderer
in every sense of the word.
The fact that he made a proposition
through Father Andre to the government to
take $50, 900 and quit the country before the
instruction was put down. clearly shows
the nature of the man. Although he was
executed for treason, he was guilty of muir
der also. The half-breeds had no claims
for we had already allowed them, although
their own archbishop was opposed to it.
He said they should be given the scrip for
their lands in three generations or at least
ten years, for the reason that they would
sell it for a trifle. In Manitoba. where we
gave them land they sold it off TO store
keepers for little or nothing. The half
breeds on the Saskatchewan river objected
to our surveying land in the new way.
They wanted the old French way that par
alleled the land out in long mar
row strips" what would have
been the effect of pardon?" ''If Sir
John Macdonald had pard0ned Riel, all the
provinces except Quebec would have been
greatly dissatisfied and the general effect
would have been more disastrous than is pos
sible now" Twill a majority sustain his
ministry in parliament" Il think so,
without doubt. The government has
seventy majority in the house of commons.
Suppose some of the French members do go
with the opposition-say to the extent OF
thirty or forty-that still leaves majority

that number. Many of them cannot change
Their votes consistently. because they have
become identified with measures that they
cannot refuse to support. The cry of an
nexation to the United States amounts to
nothing. The French people are loyal to

Sir John sails for England.
Special to the Globe.
OTTAWA, Ont, Nov. 22.-Sir John Mac
donald having left suddenly for England
yesterday evening. score of rumors have
been given currency by political opponents,
and with fullness it has been limited that
he took this means of allowing the excite
ment over the execution of Riel to abate
somewhat in the province of Quebec before
he personally comes in connection with
French Conservative members. who threaten
desertion from the ranks. But any one who
knows Sir John Macdonald's courage and
the force of his personal character, knows
well that he would be the last man i'll the
world to desert the ship of state in the hour
of danger. His mission is of infinitely
greater interest to the welfare OF
Canada, and has connection, primar-
lily, with the proposed negotiations
respecting an amicable settlement of the
fisheries question and some alterations with
respect to the mail service between Eastern
Asia and Europe via the Canadian Pacific
railroad. Whilst in England it is not I'M

who not long since received the distinction
of Grand Cross of the Bath. The feeling
in political circles here is that excitement
among the French Canadians will be ten
DAYS wonder The reason for this is OBJ
vious: They never have received any con-
sideration at the hands of the Liberals. The
Macdonald party have always treated them
generously. In fact, for years, Sir John
Macdonald in doing this at one time en-
dangered the interest of the Conservative
party and for long time failed to get the
support of majority in the province OF On
tario. In the general election of 1878 the
question of a national policy made a
deep impression on the people
of Ontario, and they gave Sir John
Macdonald's party a strong support.
Another obvious reason why the French
people will not carry out their threats is
that. should any attempt be made to weaken
the confederation the English speaking peo-
pie of both parties in the Province OF On
tario, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince
Edwards Island, British Columbia and
Manitoba would form an alliance to pre-
serve its autonomy.
