Washington. July 6.-The session
of the senate yesterday makes the
twelfth time in the history of the

dependence Day.
The meeting yesterday recalled the
spectacular session the last time the

Senator w. V. Allen of Nebraska was
In the throes of n mild filibuster over
the question of the annexation of the
Hawaiian islands. While he was
speaking, Senator Frye of Maine, the
presiding office, interrupted him to
state that he had just received some
news that he believed the senate
would be interested in hearing. He

through the history of all nations IN
order that our own heads a little
swellcd with modern progress, may
be diminished by the proper appre-
citation of what was done before us
under conditions that seemed To limit
the possibility of human achievement
but were overcome by the bravery
the courage and the religious faith OF
nations that precede us in developing
the world.
There were Montcalm and Wolfe,
two great Christians, back TO whom
you trace the whole history of Lower
Canada. 1t is true Wolfe conquered
Montcalm on the Plains of Abraham,
but there is stil in all the region OF
Lower Canada population purely
French, a population Industrious, God
fearing and loyal to the flag under
whose government they live. That
fact is a compliment not only to the
lar seeing craftsmanship of the En-
Glish colonia, statesmen who framed
the government under which they live.
but it is Il compliment to the present
domestic virtues of the French nation.
For sixteen years it was my good
fortune to go to Murray bay in can
ada for the summer. There is a limit
alton, however upon the presidential
office that now prevents it While
there | learned some things, and one
WAS while the Murray Highlanders and
other soldiers of England conquered
on the Plains of Abraham, quite a
number of these soldiers went down
the st. Lawrence and were induced to
settle on the Frencn seigreuries, which
lie some miles below quebec.
There were Blockbdrns and War
rens and MacNeils and Fraziers and
Nairns and all the Scotch names that
bring back the memory of the MurraJ
llghlandefs. And what did they do?
They had the good fortune to marry
French women. And what happened :
That country is fun of BLACK burns
and Fraziers and MacNels and War
rens and Nairns today and they don't
any of them speak a word of English
There are other ways of conquering d
people than merely by guns.
'This valley in the 800 years since
1t was discovered by Champldin has
furnished almost as much battle
ground for the three nations and the
Indians, who were on all sides, as
Belgium in Europe, and one does not
have to look for the reason. If you
will read the account given by Bcnc-
Quebec through Maine you will see
why everybody else who went that way
went by Lake Champiain. The truth
is that it was The only passage way
and here were fought the battles con
tlnued FOR 200 years, and as we now
say never to occur again. In the civil
war, | believe, there was q little ad-
venture by some rash representatives
)i the ConfcderacY, who tried to break
1 bank in st. Albans but, with that
exception, we have to go back to the
war of 1872 for the use Of this as a
l echo ana emphasize
he statements of the two ambassadors
md repeat their hope that never again
nay this great valley be given name

states being the scene of bloody war"
