Seeking More Advantageous Tnrlfr
 Agreement for Canada.

Paris, May 23.-The Canadian pre- mier, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, arrived here last night from London and spent the day paying official visits. He called on Premier Clemenceau, Foreign Min ister Pishon and the British ambassa- dor, Sir Francis Bertie, and will be re- ceived in audience by President Fall Heres tomorrow.

The subject, however, has not yet been preached at the French foreign office, as Sir Wilfrid desires the presence of w. s, Fielding, the Canadian minister of finance, and l.. P. Brodeur the Cam adian minister of marine and fisheries, who will arrive here Saturday. The plan is to proceed to Rome May 2S and see what can be accomplished there, returning to Paris about June IS, when formal propositions will be submitted to France and Belgium.
 Premier Laurier will sail for home July 1.

isters, however, proved impotent TO make
good their pledges. They were thwerted,
partly by disahection in the Liberal
ranks, but mainly by the inacxiblc re-
sistance Of the House Of Lords. Expert
ence has shown that even with the best
will in the world Liberals can accomplish
nothing of material benefit for Ireland.
This is not TO affirm that much has not
been done for Ireland during the last two
decades The Irish tenant farmer is in
comparably more prosperous than he
was twenty or even eight years ago.
He is now animated by well founded
hope, whereas formerly too often he
succumbed to despair. So far rs an
already large and rapidly growing part
of the peasantry Is concerned, the Irish
cultivator is now owner OF the land he
tills. Moreover, he now enjoys a large
instalment Of local .self-government and
practically controls three-fourths Of Ire
lands county councils. He has seen an
earnest and measurably successful effort
made to improve the methods OF farm
ing, to diversity crops and to relieve the
pressure of population on the soil by
diverting energy from agriculture to
other forms of industry. Let him who
left Ireland twenty years ago now return
for the first time, and except on the
western edge Of Connaught he will
scarcely recognize the once distressful
country. He cannot but recognize that
a great deal has been done for ireland,

learn that the credit for it cannot be
claimed by Liberals.
Paradoxical as it may seem to him,
the returned emigrant will find that all
the improvement which rejoices him is
due to Unionists, either in their collec-
tive or individual capacities. For the
Wyndham Land Purchase act and the
Irish County Councils act, the two benefi-
cent measures by which the grievous
agrarian problem has been carried far
toward complete solution and by which
the Irish farmer for the first time in CEN
turies is left at liberty to manage his own
local affairs, the people of Ireland are
indebted not to their Liberal allies but
to their so-called Unionist oppressors.
That is a lesson which the visitor from
the New World soon learns and which
the Irish Nationalist party seems at last
to have taken to heart. 1t peroeives,
and apparently now intends to act on the
perception, that if ever it is to get an
Irish Catholic university. an eviCted
tenants law that shall be adequate, and
drastic reform of the Castle system Of
administration, il must look for those
boons no longer to British Liberals, but
to the Unionists.

A Bonaparte BIunder?

The president OF the Board Of Trade
of Wilmington, Del, is reported in the
newspapers as having criticised the
Attorney-General OF the United States.
If we may believe half we read about the
incident the criticism was characterized
by highly Objectionable candor. The
gentleman went so far as to say, in fact,
that the Hon. CHARLES JOSEPH BONA
PARTE didn't know what he was talking
about when he spoke disparagingly Of
the Du Pont Powder Company. He also
intimated that some wicked and irreverent
person had been ~joshing" one Of the
greatest jurists and reformers of this or
any other age.
If this impious utterance had emanated
from any one Of the various mslefactors
composing the covey into which Attor-
ney-G General BoNAPARTE proposes to
shoot at a very early day. IL not sooner,
we might ascrbe it to the fury Of the
detected criminal. Proceeding, how
ever, from the head of the Wilmington
Board Of Trade, who so far as we know
does not own railroad or a bank, or,
indeed, conduct any other agency Of pred
atory wealth. it merely battles and
obfuscates a once apprehensive mind.
Easy to understand the raging venom Of
the wretch who sees his punishment ap-
preaching on a wing of light and knows
the author of his well earned fate.
For example, those reckless inoendia-
ries the Mayor and the village constable
of Glen Echo. an irreverent suburb of
Washington where even the most august
scorchers have been held up and impov-
erished and otherwise humiliated because
they violated the speed laws of the State
of Maryland, may well shiver in their
shoes. Only last week Attorney General
BoNAPARTE. Assistant General
COOLEY and one or two others of like
eminence assembled insymposiumt to con-
slider the enormities Of Mayor GARRETT
and Constable COLLINS, and the last we
heard Of them they were tiptoeing away
to their severaldark closets, finger on lip
with the Archimandrite, that is to say
BoNAPARTE, muttering: "Cogitate; above
all things, cogitate!'
iHdt such - tncSe sHouiu III lneli
despair give way to futile frenzy and
hurl back, and so forth, is ineligible
enough. So does the scotched and
squirming snake emit its poison in an
expiring fit. But why and on what
warrant does the president of the Will
mington Board of Trade project this
sacrilegious brickbat? Does he by any
chance imagine that the Hon. CHARLES
JOSEPH BoNAPARTE is made of common
clay and therefore fallible?

Reducing the Forbidden Degrees

After a bitter struggle, lasting sixty
years, the bill legalizing the marriage of
a widower with his sister-in-law or of
widow with her brother-in-law has
finally passed both houses of Parlia-
ment. 1t will undoubtedly become law
with King EDWARDS approval, for on the
ono occasion when, as Prince of WALES,
he used his right to vote as a peer, he
voted for il. Thereby a source of some
annoyance in English social life and of
occasional legal complications is re-
moved.
Though the number of persons af-
fected must be relatively small, cases OF
hardship arising from the prohibition, or
from a disregard of it, have appeared
during all these years at frequent inter-
walls in the courts. The continuance of
the canonical regulation has weighed
most heavily on the respectable poor,
for it Is among them that the need of
holding together family that has lived
under one roof by such a marriage has
been strongest. The hardship of max
ing unlawful what seemed a natural
solution of practical problem has been
emphasized Of late years by the legaliza-
tion of these marriage in almost all the
British colonies and dependencies.
Persons whose religion regards mar
rlagc as sacrament Will retain their
objections to tine unions OF people whom
their church has decreed are close blood
relations. They, however, are not aT-
fectcd by II themselves, for the law does
not force them 10 marry within the de-
grecs they consider to be forbidden,
but merely leaves Others free TO do SO
