the country are writing indignant protests to
the newspapers against the refusal Of the Rev.
Mr.. Davis to offer the toast Of the Queen. lie
substance of the ettersis that the Non-C onfori.-
lists are not surpassed in LOYALTY by Church
men, or any other religious denomination. ard

self IN his demonstration against the roSsl
family. Since the banquet Mt which Mr.. DAVIS
took his peculiar stand he has been boycottad
by his own congregation and movement is
foot to compel hun 10 resign.
The authorities VAL take no notice Of his ~
terances, as 1t is the inyariable custom Of tie
royal family TO ignore any attack In wor,'z,
whether vile or simply disloyal. In this respect
English royalty is entirely different from that
of the continent. where criticisms OF rulis,g
families are met with prompt and exemplary
punishment. Iibels on the queen, whirh

Sir George Trevelyan Is credited with to
expression that there is more LOYALTY in Grsst
Britain than anywhere else in Europe for Ito
reason that 1t Is not compulsory.
