The prime minister of Canada, Mr..
King, is now in Washington. 1t is
believed that he has come in order
to come to better understanding on
questions of mutual interest. Among
other matters that concern both Can
ada and the U. S. are reciprocity in
trade; adjustment due to the great
drainage canal thru Illinois and its
effect on the waters of the lakes;
the st. Lawrence canal; a continu-
ance in more permanent and recog-
nized form the unarmed boundary
between the two countries. As tar
iff legislation is under discussion in
our congress, it may be well imagin-
ed that reciprocity or some form Of
commercial freedom between the
two countries is a prime object of
the visit. These personal confer
ences are productive of much good
to both sides.

The French people celebrated Bss-
tile Day, July Ia, both in France
and in our own country, with much
spirit and satisfaction. 1t has been
one hundred and thirty-three years
since the fall of the political prison
ushered in the French Revolution and
prepared the way for the French
Republic. As the Republic becomes
stronger and its place in Europe
more prominent, the day is more
priced by the people. The celebra-
tion in New York was in the part
of the city occupied mostly by the
French citizens. Singing of the ma
tional air, speech making and dis
play of flags were the main fea-
lures. The occasion gave opportu-
nifty for expressions of regard fer
the U. S. and the help received from
this country in the World War.
France desires the good will of other
nations and she needs it as her DO

England is about to create the

IT is to have constitution with To-

be chosen from Englishmen. A loan
of considerable size is to be made 30

and other lines of development. The

so far as possible, all of the time
under the watchful eye of England.

If haply she's peach. One cannot
