iod until they can have the opportunity
to produce food for themselves. Enor-
nous quantities of supplies of the kinds
indicated by the governor general must
be procured.
The magnitude of the work to be ac-
complished leads this department to
supplement the appeal already made to
the mayors of the principal citics Of
the country by more general appeal,

ON VERGE OF CIVIL WIR,
some ofthe Parts Papers Predict 1t for
France.

Paris, Aug. 15.-The Paris papers
without distinction express Indignation
at the outrage of which Maitre Labori
Is the victim. The Temps deplores the
state of disorder into which the Drey-
fus affair has dragged the country" and
says it is high time for us to stand up
and be ourselves again." Continuing
its review of the situation, the Temps
observes: M Casimir-Perie testified
to his wishes for a reconciliation, and
we now see how far from it we are.
Perhaps this pistol shot marks the cul-
mination of the crisis and will restore us
to the path of good sense"
The Liberte. which holds the govern
ment responsible as the "apostle of the
anarchy that has existed for the last
two years and that has sown broadcast
the seeds of civil war" says 1.-THE
outrage is only an incident in the era
of catastrophes toward which the coun-
try is rushing"
The Journal Des Debats says "The
revolver is bound to be the end, and,
one fine morning it will be followed by
the horrors of civil war, if violence,
hate, contempt for Justice and law, and
all the fanatical anarchic and homicidal
passions continue to poison the air we
breathe"
The Libre Parole, which attacks the
government. says: To-day we have
only assassins. Tomorrow it will be
civil war
The Figaro says; 'In all the long
series Of crimes on the pages of our his
tory, this is the first time when assas-
sina ton has struck down an advocate,
and that, too at the very hour when
preparing to plead in defense of his
client, to establish truth and to con-
found accusers.'
