Show annexation OF CANADA the question of canadian annexation has baa been mentioned so often that it has become a little hackneyed and falls fails to elicit the attention which it once had however the subject is not dead by any means in fact it can hardly be said to be sleeping As to how this would be but for the press of both countries it to is hard to say certainly the newspapers are doing and have done more of the agitating when indeed it has amounted to that than any other agency at home or gr abroad congress does nothing the canadian parliament does nothing and thus the matter does not acquire much headway recently an ultra loyal and conservative dominion newspaper published an art article icleon on this subject in which it said among other things that the time for united action has come and canadians who believe in canadas Can adaa right to a national ex stence on the continent must unite to a man and put down the american or annexation party in this country there is but one issue in the country today and that la is annexation or british connection from which it would appear that there to is a spark of the sentiment spoken of remaining with some of the populace and the paper thinks it of sufficient proportions to put the loyal britons on guard but at this distance it sounds unreasonable if not absurd if canada were a small island adjacent to our national territory and could be had without a row with our cousins beyond t 9 atlantic we might take her in not otherwise at le lei t for some time |
