Montreal, Dec 29.-The mandament is sued by the Roman Catholic bishops of Quebec forbidding faithful Catholics to subscribe for, read, circulate or otherwise encourage the newspaper LElecteur, published in Quebec City, under pain of being deprived of the benefits of the church, has created intense excitement throughout the province, and is de- nounced in strong terms by the liberal French and English papers, i1 Pacaud, the publisher of the condemned paper, will it is understood, take action for S5,- 000 damages against each of the bishops who signed the mandament, and a num- Der of prominent men here have express ed their willingness to subscribe toward carrying the case to the priYy council if necessary.

Birmingham state herald., 1896-12-30

 L'Electeur which is assa assinated, but in the hope that the point of the dagger, after having killed Pacaud will strike the first minister of Canada in a vital spot. The execution of L'Electeur at Quebec is, and can be only the beginning of a struggle to the death with the gov ernment at Ottawa"
 M Pacaud says he will cease the pub lica ation Of his paper and appeal from the condemnation of the bishops to the Roman court.
 The Torontol Globe, in a leading edi- torial today. says:
 "The matter is not one which concerns French-Canadains s3ld Catholics alone the maintenance of the rights and liber- ties is a matter which interests us all and which demands the gravest consideration of every citizen of Canada"
 The offense of L'Eleeteur consisted in publishing a pamphlet written by MT. David. upholdng the doctrine of the SUI premacy of the state. in state affairs, and denying the right of the church to dec tate to electors how they shall vote upon such question as that of the restoration of separate schools in Manitoba.
