Leslie'sS Weekly: The new premier
of Austria. Baron Gau.seii. is a man
of great ability and force of character,
and practically self-made. Most of his
predecessors were members of AUS
ria old aristocracy. but he attained
the premiership without the aid of
long descent and social influence. He
is hardly regarded as one of the no
bility. for his father was the first of
the family TO bear the title of baron.
The premier is entirely without for
tune. He commenced his career as an
usher in a school. Later he was made
the head of an Institution for the edu-
cation of poor noblemen's ons. Com
ing in contact with the emperor, he
was appointed director of a military
academy in which many royal person
ages have been educated. The baron
subsequently was made minister of
public instruction and in time came to
be premier.

ASKING CANADIAN INDEPENDENCE.

1EaH#e1-& separation sentiment are ge6ing
1e58a$YY NJ strong in Canada. There has been
15fNRV&E4 a practical abandonment of thai
@lgG(fR locality by the British army and
- Jlg&l3aA navy. Only two or three antiques
G%Z<I4SS ted British vessels are left on the
Atlantic side OF Canada, and fewer still in the
Dominion Pacific waters. But little Of the army
is to be in that province. On The British side
there is an apparent loosening OF the ties which
bind the mother country to the colony.
One prominent newspaper in the Dominion, the
Montreal Suu, has come out in favor OF absolute sep
aratiOn from Great Britain. Teachers and clergy
here and there in Canada talk in favor Of indepen-
dence. Very little is said about annexation TO the
United States, although this will come eventually.
The separation issue, when it takes a sufficiently
concrete form to figure in elections for members OF
parliament viii bring up the question of annexation.
Little or no attention is given in England to the in
dependence talk The probability is that England
would not make very strong protest against sep
aratOn anything like majority of the Canadians
wanted it. Nor would annexation arouse much hos
tlity in England if Canada should decide for It.
Great Britain has been putting up the money here
tOiore for the defense Of Canada and the other col
Onies, with little or aid from them. This is
something that the British taxpayer does not like
but he has had no remedy Of any consequence until
England herself began furnishing it in the case Of
Canada by gradually Withdrawing her military and
naval forces from that province, leaving the expense
OF its defence to its own citizens This policy ia
calculated to foster national or a separatist sent-
ment in the Dominion, and talk in favor Of the Sc
vereance Of the bond with Englrnd is likely to be
heard Oitener hereafter from Canadian papers and
publioists Canada's growth has been only little
over half great as that Of the United States for
