The announcement of Mr. Lorden ha» been well received at Ottawa. Tlie Hon. Champ Clark now says he would oppose annexing Canada by force. But then, when the time for that come.s he can "explain" that he didn't mean just that, and proceed to whoop her up for forcible annexa- tion.

Practically the whole cargoâ€" she carried package freight â€"amounting to about 810,0W}, will be a loss Hi a result of the necessaiy efforts to keep the ship above water. It was while approaching Isle Royal, that dangerous point where so many •hips have met disister, that the full strength of the 70 mile gale was enccmn- tered. Great waves lifted the vessel and flung her about, resistless in their grasp. She was not heavily weighted and Capt. Davis, ill order to secure some lelief, ordeied the hold to be flooded. This brought the vessel to a safer depth and she rode more easily. For twenty-two hours the ship felt its way through the bliuaing snowstorm in the endeavor to find the entr.ince. The piissengers, those who were not too seasick to care, were sure that the ship w.'is going to turn turtle many times. Many of the sailors could not stand the motion of the boat and were inca- pacitated. N. R.

It is especially pleasing to know that Manitoba will got a lont;-deUyed justice in the instter of hor boundaries, and that it will no longer be known as the " poslaiie stamp" pro- vince. Maiiit(d)a will now proceed to develop itself, ami will in short order become one of the greater provinces. These things have been made po.ssible through a change of government at O'- tattli. Where the provincial and federal authorities are not in harninny, ofttimes justice is very slow iu loming to the former.
