honor of nations Mag and everyone at least bad Wilfrid Tuesday night probably excelled anything of the kind To ronto had ever previously seen if in deed it did not surpass anything in Canadian history The features of the jubilation were a vast torchlight pro cession with four thousand men in line and three huge meetings each ad dressed by Sir Wilfrid and several of his colleagues Music Hall holding alone live thousand people in a few minutes and the hundreds of new comers at that hour were met by hun dreds of others turning away to hasten to the meetings in the Pavi lion and iu Association Hall which too were speedily rilled to the doors Several other halls could easily have been Oiled with the crowd of disap pointed ones eager to hear the eloquent Premier Many hundreds of people went from the country during the day and most of these were among the vast crowd that by oclock was awaiting the opening of the doors The doors were opened a few minutes before half- past oclock and there was a terrific rush and crush filling every corner of the vast hall within a quarter of an hour Twoscore Liberal members of Par liament as many candidates for honors at the approaching elections came to the city honor the great a handkerchief and instantly the hall was converted into a fluttering garden of colors rising tier above tier almost to the electric lights in the dome The sealike roar that burst from live thou sand throats was maintained without cessation or even break until one thought that they had no intention of bringing the remarkable ovation to a close When at length the audience was disposed to listen Mr J the Chairman after a few preliminary words introduced one af ter the other the local candidates of the Liberal party It must be admitted that the audience was im patient for its idol was not dis posed to listen to anyone else until it from him When he in troduced by the Chairman there was a repetition of the reception at his en trance modified by the desire to hear the grave heartfelt accents in which he thanked them for their preeednted welcome of him At his first word the vast multitude settled into a silence so absolute that even the low tones of the opening pass age penetrated to every portion of the spacious auditorium This silence was unbroken save by the quick and sym pathetic responses which his eloquent periods evoked The speech was beau tifully balanced

coloni al products Mr Chamberlain is the person who is said to he most favor able to the scheme and Mr Chamber lain has again and again that it Coil Id not even be considered except up on Iho condition that British goods an admitted free into the colonics The Premier thought in IS and still thinks that we are quite ready for that step hut he does not abandon the hope that an Imperial customs union may come in time It would be im possible to exaggerate the favorable impression made upon the audience by the speech The general impression made was that the country is govern ed strong statesmanlike men Hall of course the larg est meeting but Association Hall and the Pavilion were also packed to the doors and the three meetings together gave Toronto such a feast of Liberal ism as it

brilliant page in Sir Wilfrid made a speech which was not only eloquent but closely reasoned anil remarkable for the manner in which facts arguments were group ed about one dominant idea the unity of

jumping to get possession of good seats The ladies while not so agile were as eager with the result that the hall which a few minutes before looked like a vast empty cave was as if by mag ic peopled with row upon row of hu man fates a scene may have been witnessed before but while there were newspaper men there and who may described as veterans their experience of public meetings not one of I hem had ever seen an empty hall in such a manner burst into life as if at the touch of an enchanters wand There was necessarily a long wait before the speaking could begin but provision had been made so that time would not- hand heavily their hands The Cadets brass band a string band and the Quartette maintained a succession of cheerful sounds which the multitude listened and alter nately cheered It was well past eight before the hum of a countless throng without dominated even the sound of the drum and trumpet within and the glow of torches and flashing rockets thru the great windows announced that he for whom all were waiting was at hand No more picturesque sight nor more enthusiastic demonstration was ever seen In Toronto than the torchlight procession in honor of Sir Wilfrid If there was one man In line there were four thousand Six abreast they formed a solid column more than a mile long and the thousands of flaming torches waving lags varicol ored rockets ascending from end to end of the line and the music of five bands made an occasion ever- to be re membered In the annals of political demonstrations In Toronto Probably 10000 people surrounded the hostelry awaiting the exit of tho Libera leader Rockets were ascend ing on all sides and the scene was one long to be remembered It recalled vividly the untrammelled enthusiasm with which the lougpent feelings of the people welcomed the news of fall of Pretoria When Canadas Premier arrived It was the moment for- which the magni ficent assemblage was awaiting Like one man they sprang feet Spine had provided themselves with the eat sections as policy seems to dic tate We are national they are sectional was a phrase which at once commended itself to the judgment of the audience Hut Sir Wilfrid and his colleagues had something more to do than to make speeches They had to consider the responsibilities of their position and the checks imposed on by the constitution I admit said Sir Wilfrid that was not hasty in tin matter that hesitated about taking two millions of money from the public treasury without con sent of Parliament Me had hoped to the last that there would lie no war that the matter would be peace fully settled that the old friendship of and Holland their old alli ance in the cause of liberty to which he made an eloquent reference would be remembered He knew too that blood was thicker than water and that the war did not appear in quite the same light to the people of Quebec to the rest of Canada Still were subjects and must be prepared to accept the respon sibilities of that position His aim was if possible to decide upon a pol icy on which Quebec and the rest of Canada could agree The ultimatum put an end to the hope of peace and compelled action and action had been taken in such a manner as to promote the unity of Canada There are diffi culties connected with the government of Canada which Sir John recognized and which Sir Wilfrid recognizesj but which Sir Charles does not appear to realize He and party have adopted a policy of setting one section against In Ontario the Government was blam ed for not acting before war was de clared or was seen to be Inevitable in Quebec Wilfrid was too Brit ish and was to be held responsible for every drop of Canadian blood shed at The Premiers appeal ti pay no heed to these sectional cries and to work together for a united Canada was spoken in a vein of sober and restrained eloquence and its ef fect upon the audience was instantane ous and powerful The question of the British prefer ence was explained with remarkable clearness
