He Says the Presidents Action WIN Leave
a stain on Americas Esentcheon.
MONTREAL, Sept 14.-Spealiing at a Con
servative picnic at Laprarie, Secretary Of
State Chapleau devoted his remarks almost
wholly 70 the retaliation question, il being
the first time he has referred to it in public
Tho action OF President Cleveland be termed
dishonorahle, and one which would leave an
everlasting stain on the American osautcheon.
The governments course would be that
which would best guard the interest Of
Canada, but the people might be assured that
it would not be policy Of bluster, but one Of
dignity and self respect
Great Britain showed firm determination
not to allow Canada to be bluffed, and with
such backing the Dominion would not fail to
stand for her rights
The Americans have rejected the treaty be-
cause it did not suit them, but Canada had
pursued a dignitied course when the Ashbur-
ton and other treaties gave away a part Of
our heritage and observed the terms Of the
treaties. What contrast this was TO the
policy OF the United States.
