OutspOkcn Words on the Recent
Alaskan Boundary Award-CIaims
Unnntinous Dissatisfaction
ThsOuEhout Dominion.

Throughout Dominion.
HALIFAX, N. g., Oct. 29.-The dec
laratiOn that the existing relations be-
tween Canada and Great Britain can
not exist much longer vas made by the
Halifax Chronicle, the leading newspa-
per supporter in the maritime provinces
Of the Liberal party. In the eonrse of
an unusually outspoken editorial on the
recent Alaska boundary award the
| Chronicle expresses what it claims to
be unanimous dissatisfaction OF Cana
dams at the action of the British gov
crnmcnt III tho matter. The paper says:
"This Alaska episode has made it
cear that existing relations no the
empire cannot be continued much Ion
ger. We hm even pow at the parting
Of the ways. Our subordinate position
has been so clearly and so humiliating-
ly revealed that it must speedily be-
come utterly uhendurabh."
Tho Chronicle adds that there are
now only two courses open FOR Canada
complete Independence within the en-
pirc, acknowledging the sovereignty Of
the hing 81 England alone, OF The stat
us Of an independent pation. Tire pa
per snys there Is much TO commend the
latter step in particular, because 1t
would free Canada from the danger Of

THE HERO.
story Writer Defends Cheap Modern
Fiction Against the barge of
Dangerous SensntiOnnlism.

One who <confesses himself "the ia
Their of many of them writes a do
Tense of the novelette, hero in the
columns of 'V. c." He takes the line
that the charge of dangerous sensa-
tionaiism Is undeserved, and only
comes from those whose opinions
have been formed on the subject by a
cursory study Of the novelette, in its
infancy. He admits frankly that the
romantic interest OF cheap modern fic-
ton of to-day bears very little relation
to the facts of life, but this is q charge,
he declares, which can be levelled with
equal truth against the popular novels
which literary journals treat with high
seriousness. The novelette, hero is al
most invariably a man of action, whose
doings stimulate unsophisticated read
ers to fine things and clean thoughts,
while almost always he Is the cham
pion Of truth, honor and religion.
There is no pessimism in the novelette,,
and the enormous sales of this humble
form OF fiction may therefore BIO taken
as u testimony to the inherent optim-
ism of the English people. Love is
its main interest, action is its setting,
and it's conclusion Is always immacu-
lately happy. What strikes us most
about the novelette,, perhaps, is the
ability shown by the writer's. 1t is
common knowledge that many of them
nave only just fallen short of attain
ing success in the higher fields of
literature. For the rest we are dis
posed to agree with tho writer of the
article that the charge of dangerous
seSatioualigm is undesCrved.
