The dream of the great majority in French Canada is not now a new France on the ba.nks of the St. Lawrence.

but another independent State on tflie continent -ot America. So deeply imbued is the French-Canadian population with the idea of an "ultimate independence of this countrv. that not a few consider the time about ripe for it. This idea 3s voiced in a recent letter from D. Mccnet, M.

L'Rvenement, the leading mservative journal of Quebec City, vs the Anglo-Boer war Is unjust and evoked for speculative ends by the Chamberlain. After violently denouncing him it asks: "Is it. necessary for the French-Oana- lians to play the role of slaves prove loyalty to England and to merit he delightful friendship of the English Canada? Must we be guided in our noughts by our mistress (England), es- iDuse all her quarrels, just or unjust; urnish targets for her enemies' guns, I Applaud her damnable acts and proclaim victory when her army suffers defeat?" 8 In Quebec the popular cry Is against imperialism and for the Independence of 'Canada; in Ontario and other provinces it Is for closer union iwlth the British Crown.
