tails, the American GoveInment has taken
slunmsry action Deliberately Of IA offensive

BIZ BzyaTd has iniOrmei the Eriiish AM
tassador that for reasons aEcmy Known 10
Toe English GOYcrumsrt bis continuance Is
no louser acceptable, and would conse-
duently be dctrlmcstal 10 The feiatlOn;
betWeeu the two countries. u must no
hoped that a more precise account or the
terms Of tue communication vii take from
the 0rusgueness-We are tempted 10 day

the expense OF the henor OF American pub

TORONTO, October 81 The Globe to-day,
in an article headed BREAKERS Close
Ahead" says: although Lord Sack7ilte IA
the victim Of a dcspica0le trick, he Is also
the victim OF BIS own folly. He stuck bis
nose into American home Affairs by counsel
ling 40 eiect0r about how be should vote
aud influence others 20 vote. The United
states Secretary OF state argues with great
force that the British Ambassador thus
transgressed the amenitlts sni necessary
rules Of diplomacy in such a degree a. %
warrant the Washington autbertieS IN de-
mandng his recall. Accordingly Lord
sackyille has been Informed that he IS Do
longer acceptable to the President and adj
mlnisiraiiOn.
Referring to the report that the retaliation

and one too likely 10 breed very serious dii-
6cuiiies. Cauada nav be- injured, but can
nos be dhgraced BY the Presidents hesOrt 10
90 aggressive pshcy. No trDeCseadian
will say that our Government should crawl

In other circumstances, perhaps, soaeeth'ng

tlan that. The Globe has always sincerely
eudeayOred 10 promSso irieBdsbip between
CaBaca and the Uulted States. The GLOBE
does not believe that Canadians should
grovel on their bellies FOR friendship sake.
