The first of a series se-ries of articles published in tho daily Graphic upon the Canadian crisis, written writ-ten by the Marquis of Lome, appeared today. Among other things the marquis mar-quis said: "The annexationist scare is a useful losson, bringing homo to our minds the fact that colonies are practically prac-tically independent of a nation. This is a wholesome thing for the public to be reminded of. No comparison is possible pos-sible between colonies aud Ireland." The marquis ridicules the idea that Canada desires to barter her political independence "for the government of stars and stripes." |
