There are 500,000 French.Canadians in
New England who are constantly pull-
ing on their friends and relatives at
home. There are fifteen Wrench 11eW8-
apers in New Ewhich have a
AND THE BEST
rarge elientage inCanada and are con-
tinually discus,sing the advantages of
annexation, The recent overturn of
the Conservative Government was
largely due to the influence of the Can-
adians in -New England. Laurier re-
ceived his largest, support arid made
his largest gains in the French Catho-
lic courinuni ties, although the question
of Government support for church
schools was one cftlie prominent issues
of the campaign. In Montreal he got
a majority of 25 ; in Quebec out of
a total of sixty-five members of the
House of Commons, he got a majority
of 33, although Sir Charles 'Fulmer, the
ConJervative leader, was certain of
carrying both Provinces through the
influence of the priests on the school
issue. But "Continental Union," as
they call it, had a stronger claim upon
the Frenchmen than the church.
When some one said that Laurier's
election meant "Continental Union," a
French Bishop said :-
"Yes, perhaps ; hut it is much more
likely that the American flag will float
over the citadel of Quebec than that
the Canadian flag will float at the top
of Bunker Hill Monument."
French Canada has no cause for at-
tachment to Great Britain, and makes
no pretence. It is said that a French-
inen never he denationalized, and
that fact is daily demonstrated in Que-
bec, Montreal and the other cities of
Lower Canada. Whenever there is a
demonstration or a feast day he hangs
out a tricolored flag, not a Union Jack,
although he has been under British
rule since 1769.
The French and the English will not

al law alone is uniform throughout

At the doors of the Parliament
ouse and the executive departments
re two ushers, one French, one Eng-
sh. There are always two customs
spectors at every post, and wherever
here is a French clerk on any public
uty, there is an Englishman also. All
he Government reports, the proceed-
ga of Parliament, and all official
roclamations, announcements and ad-
ertisements are printed in both lan-
guages. This duplication is awkward
nd expensive, but it is absolutely
ecessary to satisfy both races, and al -
hough the Englishrrian knows that he

assert himself too boldly.
Mr. Begaigrand, owper of La Patrie
ewspaper who was recently Mayor of
ontreal, is an avowed annexationist
nd the greatest Frenchman the col-
ny has prod»ced, unless it is Wilfred
Laurier. He was the founder of the first
nnexation clubs that were organized
n Canada. He was associated with
onore Mercier, who died a year ago,
hen he was Prime Minister of the
rovince of Quebec. He used to travel
ver the country making annexation
peeches and startingannexation clubs,
nd may be justly regarded aethefather
f the movement.
To counteract the influence of the
'Continental Union" movement, the
ndependence Clubs and the Ste. Jean
aptiste Societies, the leaders of the
onservative party have founded what
re known as United Empire Clubs,
nd every loyal Canadians is expected
o join, The "U. E.'s," as they are
amiliarly known, were numerous and
rosperous under the Conservative ad-
ninistration, but the politicians and
ide-waiters have lost interest in them
ince the Liberals carried the last elec-
ion.

OBSERVATIONS OF THE CH17A00 MAN
WHO INTERVIEWED MR. LAURIER.
Under date Toronto, August 15, the
Chicago Record correvondent, Mr.
Curtis, who is travelling in Canada -
and whose published interview with
Mr. Laurier, Premier. of the DoTninion,
represents him as favoring important
concessions to the Washington Gov-
ernment -devotes an article to Mr.
Goldwin Smith and the annexation
propaganda Of which he is a zealous
andactivesupporter. Aftsreulogizing
Mr. $uaith, upon whom he called at his,
Toronto home, the Record correspon-
dent goes on with his general impres-
sions as follows:
"The Continental Union Associa-
tion" is a large and influential organi-
zation, composed of English-speaking
Canadians, for the purpose of carrying
on an annexation propaganda. It is
confined to the Province of Ontario,
and has a club house nt Toronto,where
its literature is printed and rnailed. In
the Eastern Provinces similar organi-
zations exist under different names.
Among the English speaking commun-
ities they are known as "Independence
Clubs," and among the French as "Ste.
Jean Baptists Socteties." You can find
them in every city, every village and
settlement, and over the line in New
England they exist in all the factory
towns where French-Canadians are
employed, It is proposed this year to
hold a convention of all the organiza-
tions in the Dominion that are devoted
to the cause of independence, or an-
nexation, which is the same thing,m
with the intention of forming
a Board of Management upon which
all shall be represented, to lay out
plans and direct the propaganda. It is
expected that the meeting will be
calted at Montreal during the month ot
September, and held under the auspices
of the "Independence of Canada Club"
of that city.
The anxiety and opposition of the
Conservative Government concerning
tne annexation movement made it
necessary for the leaders to nhserve
great caution and secrecy, and it is
freely charged that the officials of the
Post Office Department under the late
administration opened letters and des-
troyed quantities of annexation litera-
ture that was sent through the mails.
It is charged that the orders of the
Government were to detain or destroy
all such matter, and that they were
obeyed so far as possible.
A gentleman was telling me the
other day that he recently had occasion
to write to the Department of State at
Washington, and, being- an avowed
annexationist, feared that his letter
might be suspected and destroyed, so
he borrowed an envelope of the United
States Consul, which bore the latter's
official card, and took the package to
the post office to be registered. But
notwithstanding these precautions, it
never reached its destination, and al-
though the United States Consul was
aware of the contents of the letter, and
made complaint to the postal officials,
he could never obtain any satisfaction.
His belief is that the postmaster, sus-
pecting the writer of being engaged in
treasonable correspondence with the
authorities at Washington, opened the
letter, and when he found it was con-
cerning an innocent matter of business,
destroyed the evidences of his own
offence.
BO. the annexation people have no
such fear under a. Libel al Government,
and theirrnissionary work will becar ried
on henceforth without any attempt at
secrecy. It is said also that the means
to defray the expenses are largely fur-
nished by persona who do not care to
be known in that connection, but are
earnest annexationiste at heart. Tor-
onto is a hotbed of Conservatism, and
the most loyal city in Canada, although
the American interests are larger here
than elsewhere. The newspapers are
loyal without exception. Only one
paper, tailed the Weekly Sun, which
has been the organ of the Patrons of
Industry, ever dares to print anything
thaatends toward more friendly pol i deal
relations with the United States. Now
and then it contains an article in favor
Of American unity, and objects to hav-
ing Canada considered a tailpiece for
Great Britain.
In Montreal the annexation sentl
tient has been more outspoken, parti-
cularly among the French population,
who do not attempt to disguise their
disloyalty. La Patrie, the leading
French newspaper of Canada, which
has the largest circulation of any pub-
lished in the Dominion, talks annexa-
tion every day. it does not use that
term, however, for it might be offen-
sive. "Continental union" is the term--

With the Great South American
Remedies it is not the case of occasion-
allyshitting the mark. These remedies
are specifics for indigestion and nervous
prostration, kidney trouble and rheu-
matism, and taken by those buffering
in this manner are sure to cure.
NERVOUS DEBILITY—Mr. E. Merrick,
lumber merchant and tnill owner of
Merritkville, Ont., became completely
prostrated by nervous debility.I
tried," said he, "several doctors, and
everything in the shape of proprietary
medicines, and got little, if any relief
from them. Having seen Smith Amer-
ican Nervine advertised I decided to
give it a trial and I can truthfully say
I hal not taken half a bottle before I
found beneficial effects. Before taking
it I had not only to give up business
but I could not sign my own name,
either with a pen •or pencil, my ner-
vous system was so badly ont of kilter.
To -day, after taking two bottles, I am
as strong and healthy as ever."
KIDNEY DISEASE—Few worse cases
of kidney disease -are on record than
that of Mrs. J. Hallam, wife of a well-
known trour and feed merchant of
Berlin, Ont. At times the pain suffered
was so intense as to produce fainting
spells, and it, was dangerous to have
her left alone in the house. She says :
"I doctored, and in fact tried ever? -
thing, but nothing seemed tel relieve
me for any length of time. I saw
South American Kidney Cure adver-
tised, and purchased a bottle. Relief
came in a few days, and the second
bottle cured me of all kidney trouble."
RHEETMATISM—At 120 Church street,
Poronto, there resides Mr. W. J. Tracie,
who was a great sufferer from rheu-
matism for many years, and was en-
tirely bedridden for five months. Noth-
ing did him any good until South
American Rheumatic Cure was taken.
His words are these : "You do not
know how thankful I am for having
tried South American Rheumatic Cure.
For years I had suffered, suffered in-
tensely and could get no relief, until I
was influenced to use this remedy.
How great a sufferer I was is known to
hundreds of citizens in Toronto. You
are at liberty to use my name in any
way you hke."-Sold by Watts& Co.
