DUKE OF CONNAUGHT, King George's uncle, who has been Ws:anted Governor-Gensral of Canada. Some such development eniget, if the Empire holds together, occur fifty years henee, when the Dominion will probably outclass Great Britain in population and power, without any con- stitutional innovetion, on the principle established by the Duke of Conneught's Appointment. The Post thinks that fixing the Duke's tenure of office iuititdly 4 two years instead of the usual five years, means that the step is regarded as ex- perimental, adding that assuredly it in a momentous experiment. The Daily News says the appointment is a novel experiment after Teel Grey, as a Governor who realizes it is for Min, isters and not himself to govern. It mid be something a 0. relief now, and especially indicate the differenee be- tween the real and the fictitious Imper- ial ties, The very hour Canada repudi- atea Joseph Chamberlain she welcomes the Duke of Connaught. The Morning Leader asks whether the Dake of Connaught can succeed in bet- tering the example of Earl Grey, which is admittedly a hard task and remains to be seen.. The duke starts under the fairest auspices. The Daily Telegraph discusses the ap- pointment, eulogizing Canada and declar- ing that a fresh and bright page opens with the new regime. 'That Canada's heart will go out to the Royal repre- sentative is the consummation of merry loyal hopes, PRINOtSS PATMOIA, (PAT), Daughter of the Duke of Connaught, Appointed Governor-Getteral of Canada. ewe.
