their future homes. The Jesuit order will send one of their most eloquent members to New England at an early day to explain the advantages of the new settlement. MT. Rous- seau thinks opposition will be shown by the French Canadian clergy men of New England to the return of any of their flock. The young French Canadians oppose the movement. The most prominent of them say they have come to the United States to stay. They have erected St. Joseph's church here, one of the most beautiful in New England, and St. Joseph parochial school. They have worked their way into various kinds of busi ness and joined organizations composed of people of all nationalities. It may be pos sible that two hundred families will leave Lowell for the new settlement, but with the gradually increasing population their de- parture will hardly be noticed. At Lawrence the colonization club was organized one year ago, the object being to repatriate such French Canadians as were disqualified to be come citizens of the United States owing to lack of English education and such others as desired to emigrate back to Canada. It is expected clubs will be formed in other cities soon. =

Mr., EDIToR: To reading last

mend that all business ba suspended
for the day Of August 18th, when the
De Kalb status will be unveiled 10
our city. This event will cause our
city 70 be crowded with strangers,
many of them coming long distances
and many that have never seen our city
before; and it seems but proper and
right that the merchants should give
up the cares Of business for one day
at least aud devote the time TO sight
seeing and entertain their stranger
friends Ia such a manner that they
will be induced to visit us again.
And besides, it is understood that
all the Societies of our city are to take
part in the exercises, and many Of the
merchants aud their clerks are men,
bers OF one or the other of the orders
ia the city, so by closing their places
of business, it would give all an OPP
portunity Of enjoying this day so long
talked OF and what is done on that day
will go down through history for
many generations to come. / hope,
Mr.. Editor, the suggestion you have
thrown out may be needed aud that
our merchants aud business men gen.
orally will give the day entirely to
the occasion, aid let there be a
general welcome aud rejoicing among
our people. BUSINESS
