ALL BUT THE FIGHTING.
Canada Is Willing to Share With the
British Empire.

Quebec, May 2O.-Canadians of every
class are discussing Joseph Chamber
lain's recent speech at Birmingham IN
favor of trade reciprocity within the
British empire. The preferential trade
idea is generally popular but the pre-
JUDGE against further Canadian assist
ance to Britain in her foreign wars is
very strong in French Canada
The cabinet ministers at Ottawa will
not discuss the speech. The members
and supporters of the government af-
feet to believe that this threat of the
Canadian administration has had much
to do with Mr.. Chamberlain's recent ut
terances.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier's personal news
paper, the Canada, makes a positive
statement to this effect
Premier Parent of Quebec and will
lam Price, president of the Quebec
board of trade. strongly approve the
preferential trade principle and Mr..
Price also believes in colonial contribu-
tons to the British army and navy.

ceded by a tallyho filled with musicians
the president drove from the depot to
the grandstand which was covered with
school children, who presented a pretty
appearance each or the several tnOu~

pressed with the scene for he raised his
hat to the little ones in gracious recog-
milton Of their hearty cheers.

and as President Roosevelt appeared
three ringing cheers were given. The
president bowed his acknowledgements.

president accepted the box and made a
brief address. thanking the people for
the gift and expressing his appreciation
