TILE OAOIPAION IN deed.
]ere are facts that should be borne in
mind by those who are at the present
time, deliberately and with malice afore-
thought, endeavoring to arouse animosity
,between the various oreede and races of
our fair Dominion. The people of On.
tario and the West probably do not
realize the extent to wbioh this work is
on in the sister province of Qnebeo where
the election oampaigo is being deliber-
ately,planned alongthe lines of wilful
dupiity. On very platform from
which a Frenoh-Oanadian audience is
addressed the Laurier Government is at-
taolted for Ito pro•Britieh leanings ; the
Premier is charged with having drawn
Canada tato a polloy of imperialism,
with having sacrificed blood and treasure
U the are of the empire with wbioh we e w P
have no oou0ern, and with being .'prepar•
ed to go still further in the same direction
if opportunity should offer. Not only are
the tank and file of the Tory speakers
end the Tory Preea operating along
these
lines falba Province of Quebec, bat Sir
Charles Tapper himself declaree that if
the present policy of the Laurier Govern -
n1 00 continues, "government at Ottawa
witt disappear and the functions die-
churged there will be exercised at St.
Stephen's. The queetion of taxation
will be decided in England, and no lase
than $40,000,000 a year would be regnired
of Canada ae her share of the oost of the
army and navy."
ANOTHER STORY FOR ONTARIO.
This is but a sample of the wild and
extravagant statements being made ;
every issue of the French Tory papers,
every speech of the French Tory politi•
chin, oontain eimiliar abanrditiee. At
the same time speakers and papers for
the same party ere declaring in Ontario
and the West that the Premier is anti-
British and that his chief eupportere are
traitors to the empire, who have grudg-
ingly taken their stand for imperialism
only because compelled to do so by the
overwhelming force of public opinion.
Happily for Canada the true relative
paaition of the ieaders is pretty well 0n•
deretood and the 810010re know that Sir
Wilfrid Laurier was uttering the simple
truth when he declared from hie place in
the House of Commons ;-"If there ie
anything to wbioh I have devoted my
political life it ie to try 10 promote unity,
harmony and amity between the diverse
elements of this country. My friends
oan desert me, they oan remove their
confidence from me, they oan withdraw
the treat they have placed in my hands,
but never shall I deviate from that line of
policy. Whatever may be the conse-
quencewhether logs of prestige, lose of
popularity, or lose of power I feel that 1
am in the right, andn
I know that a
time
will oome when every man will render me
full jaetioe on that soon."

SEED GRAIN COMPETITION.
Prizes Mega to Parmelee Children for the

Sir W. 0. Macdonald of Montreal has
handed to the Dominion Minister of
Agricultural a sane of over $10,000, to
be distributed as prizes to boys end girls
on Canadian farms, to enoeurage them to
observe and study the benefits to be
derived from making for themselves a
systematic eeleotion of seed grain from
year to year. Any boy, or girl, who bed
not passed the 18th birthday before
January 1st, 1900, is eligible for the
prizes offered. There will be a yearly
oompetition in each of the three years,
1900, 1901 and 1002, and there will be a
main competition lasting the three years.
Any two, or more dye, or girle, one of
whom has entered the oompetition, may
form Ihemeelvee into a oompany for the
purpose of conjointly competing. For
the one hundred beads of oats and wheat
that are forwarded to Prof. Roberteon,
Department of Agricultural, Ottawa, by
competitors who bave complied with the
rales and regulations, there will be ten
prizes awarded for eaoh province in 1900,
1001 and 1902,
Any One hundred beads may be picked
from the acre entered for competition.
One mark will be awarded for every
Beed on the one hundred heade, and 25

Montreal in Summer, and Liverpool
and Portland, Me., in Winter. The
year prior to the award of oontreat to
& A, Allan (1825) the Canadian
Government made a oontraot with a
Liverpool firm, Messrs. McKean, Mo
Larby & Lamont, for thio 8ervi08.
An attempt was made t0 comply with
the terms, but this, before the close of
the season, resulted in failure and the
centred was ,aucelled. The first steam•
er b11181 was the Canadian in 1858, and
she was followed in rapid enaoeseion by
the Indian, North American and Anglo
Saxon, Thie gave Canada an independ•

the roots, and w&ioh, during these yearn
entailed serious loads, yet, in 1859, six
years after the inauguration of the mail
contract, the service was iooreaeed from
a fortnightly to a weekly one, and so it
has continued ever sines.
The founder, Alexander Allan, had
five Bone, James, Hagh (afterwards Sir
Hugh Allan), Bryce (previously referred
to), Andrew and Alexander. In 1826
Hugh waa sent out to Canada by his
/ether. He gained a good wo mermel
ednoation in the oily of Montreal. In
1831 he was admitted to partnership in
the firm of Miller, Edmonetone & Co.,
whioh later became Edmonetone, Allan
ee Co. Andrew Allan came oat a
paeaenger in the Canada in 1839, and
soon thereafter became a member of the
firm. Mr. Edmoostoue retired in 1861
end from that date on to the present,
the interests of the Line in the Western
Hemisphere have been conducted
ander the name of Hugh and Andrew
Allan. After the death of tbe founder,
the brothers, James and Alexander, ooa-
deoted the business in Glasgow and
Bryoe in Liverpool. For about forty
years the vastly growing business was
oontinned under the management of the
five brothers. Sir Hugh Allan was
knighted by Her Majesty in 1871 in
recognition of hie valuable services to
the commeroeof Canada. Andrew Allan,
of Montreal, is the only one of the five
brothers living. He is still active in tbe
business, is President of the Allan Line
Steamship Oompauy, as well as of many
other companies in hie adopted city. He
is assisted in the management of the
Line by his two sone, Hugh A. and
Andrew A. Allan, and hie two nephews,
H. Montag YAllan,
Montagne and Bryce J. sone of
Hugh Alan, In
the late jr & 1Liverpool
and Glasgow the business is managed b
the eons of he late James and Alexander
Allan, together with Nathaniel Dunlop
who hi also a member of the firm of J. it
A. Allan.
In addition to the mail service from
Liverpool and Montreal, new routes
were opened, one from Montreal to
Glasgow in 1862, which became a weekly
service in 1872 and so continuee. A
third service wart opened from Glasgow
and Liverpool galling at St. John, N. F.,
for maile and passengers, and which
now makee Philadelphia its terminal
stopping port on this side of the Atlan-
tic. In 1876 a Rendes wee established
with Uruguay, South Amerioa, and in
1879 a direot service between Glasgow
and Boston. About the Berne time
eteamere were planed on the route be-
tween Montreal and London direct, and
these sail weekly during the season of St.
Lawrence navigation.
In 1891 the "State Line," running
between New York and Glasgow, watt
purchased. The older veeeele excepting
ode were sold and larger vessels planed
on the route. This year, 1000, will see
this aleo a weekly service, maintained by
eaoh fine vessels as the Sioilian, 8,000
tone, Oorintbian, 7,500 tone, both 1181,
and Mongolian, Nubian, Laurentian and
State of Nebraska. To give an idea of
the growth of the Line we quote from

summed up as follows; They had over two
