preparations Of the English Government hcre

| Quebec. In connection with the earnestness
| displayed by the English Government In tho
| matter OF armaments, II Is curious to observe

fever among the nre.eaiers over here; and

application of tho American labor law would
pnt stop to this and compel the Canadian
workers either to go over into the towns where
they have work to reside permanently. in which
