UDgenerOuS Remarks.

DelOW are Drlet extracts from
papers in three provinces of the
Dominion aud in Newfoundland
about the war:
Hamil onSpectator: Britannia's
big boy, Uncle Sam, seems to be
able to take care of any of the
waves which may escape the rule
OF the old girl.
Daily News, st. John, MID:
Spair's sun will sink 10 the West
ern Hemisphere when Uncle Sam
removes the Spanish flag from
Havana.
Observer, Coivansville, One:
Apart from the discussion about
the change in the postmastership,
war talk is the only talk now.
Nearly every one wants to see the
United States victorious, and it is
almost dangerous to show any
sympathy for Spain.
Courier, Brantford, Ont: Once
upon time a Spanish armada
started out to wipe Great Britain
off the map, and now an offshoot
# the Old Country is attending to
thu Dons without much apparent
trouble. The whirigig of time
may seem slow, but it brings
about some pretty remarkable
changes.
Sun, st. John, N. B.: The
Cubans will make no mean
alice. They will row fight OF
equal terms the bat lie for lib rly
hey have so long kept up aga DIS
fearful odds, aud 10 their strug.l,

of knowing that the sympathy of

States likely means to the Cubaus
free institutions, prosperity aud
development, and the success of
Spain means to them despotism,
anarchy and misery.
News, Kingston, Ont: Already
many Canadians resident in the
United States have enlisted in the
volunteer force to be used agaipst
Spain. or these not few were
formerly connected with the Ca
madam militia. Many Canadians
still resident In their own country,
including well trained militi4
officers, are eager to enlist, and
will doubtless cross the line for
that purpose.
Banner, Chatham, Ont: All
these countries appear to be real
ly standing with their hands on
their swords, ready to draw them
in favor of Spain but "the Lion of
the North" is the influence which
prevents action. :. The conflict
over Cuba may have consequences
reaching far beyond what at first
seemed within the bounds of
probability, and it may lead to SO
close union of the English.

the destinies of the world.
And here is one-the Sudbury,

heart is hurt by a yellow feathered
dart from over the border: "Wbile

OF our temperament, whose victory
over weak nation like Spain has
cost US little and only whetted our
thirst for more of the same kind,
is sure to realize that what has
been done with Cuba on the south
may also be done with our neigh

the Monroe doctrine in the hands
of powerful people, fresh from

England trouble il she does not
