in civilization. When men become
desperate they begin to look around
for means to escape from their con-

ing almost entirely on their own
products for all they use. This
will relieve them from the hand of

TO SEEK RECIPROCITY.
Result Of Canada's Election Means
Seeking of Better Trade Relations
with U. S.

Minneapolis. Mimi. June 25-A spe-
cial to the Tribune from Winnipeg,
says: The defeat Of the Upper gov
eminent whose. platform was the re-
establishment Of Catholic parochial
schools in Manitoba. has caused the
widest enthusiasm in western Canada,
and no such wild scenes have ever been
witnessed here.
While the liberals were sanguine Of
electing sufficient members Of the Do
minion parliament to block the govern
ment school measure, they never dared
to hope for completely ousting the Tup-
per government as they have done.
The Liberals successful for the first
time in nearly twenty years have won
and are overjoyed at Laurier's success,
while Conservatives to whom the dis
aster was altogether unexpected are in
a dazed condition The Liberal organ
ism now emphatically declare that
ManitOba's national school system is
absolutely safe from interference.
However, conservatives are quite as
positive that now that Laurier, who is
a Frenchman, and Roman Catholic
has come into power. he viii demand
that Catholic schools be restored. There
viii be a great deal of anxiety until it
IS discovered what La ullei $ pOlcy IS
in this respect.
All are agreed, however, that one Of
his first moves viii be to treat with
Washington for reciprocity of trade,
between Canada and the states.
London, June 25-The st. James
Gazette this afternoon referring to the
Cana dian elections says: THE Ameri-
cans are rapidly beating us out Of their
national market and Laurier and his
friends viii do nothing to stop the pro
cess, nor, we fear, is the spirited pro
ject to unite Canada with Great Brit
ain and Australia by fitting ships like
ly to be pushed with much vigor."
The Globe says. There is good
grounds to hope that neither the do
minion, nor its relations with the
mother country viii suffer by the trans
fer of power. Laurier is q professed
free trader, but only as President
Cleveland is a free trader. In the cru
cial question of loyalty to the imper-
ial connection, the incoming party hap
ply. is as sound as its predecessors
Goodwin Smith is the only conspicuous
advocate at present Of annexation and
he does not count. The French Cana
dams are, if possible, more averse TO
annexation than the British and if any
Americans look to Laurier to betray
his country they are most certainly
doomed to disappointment"
