A correspondent of the Toronto Star, in London, undertook to criticize Admiral Kingsmill, director of the Canadian naval service, and was %im- ply snubbed for his pains. The Star's report reads as follows : "Your correspondent found him a man with iron-grey hair and whiskers, spare of build, with a decidedly crisp voice, and a brusque masner. He was asked about the renovation of the Canadian cruiser Rainbow, which will be stationed at Esquimalt, | "It was inspected by me, and taken the Canadian. government, said the rear-admiral "Were you accompanied by any Canadians ?" "No." 3 "Was there any ceremony ?.' { "No, Whal ceremony did you ex- t #* This in staceato-like tones. t "Well," observed the newspaper maf; "the warship was turned over, as you say, to the possession of the Cana: dian government, and this was virtu- ally the inauguration of the Canadian navy," "It was not" "Why not?" ventured the timid cor- respondent. The director of the Cana- dian naval service frowned. His voire became more cutting. "I don't know," he said. "Ask Sir Wilfrid Laurier or the admiralty, and they may tell you. That's all the in- formation I ean give." Throughout the interview the rear admiral had not torned in his seat or raised his eyes from the desk. 4 THE DAILY BRITISH.

Dr. Jackson has his friends, and they will not submit willingly to eriticism which is hurtful to his record and usefulness. They will see that the old man eloquent is not the diplomat he was supposed to be, and that in this supreme erisin in bis life, if not of the Canadian church, moderation and 'good sense must prevail. Dr. Carman is a typical representa- tive of the old time churchman who will not abate one jot or tittle in his belief. He has taken a stand and he will hold it though he fall in the bat- tle. One reads his address to the con- |! in admiration, whether it is ac- cepted or not. Here is the warrier of the church militant, heroic, intense, in- sistent. He asks for no favour, and he will not give any. In the issues of the day it will be Carman in defest or Carman triumphant.

The Whig unconsciously ~~ did the chairman of the board of education an injustice 'when it intimated that the failure to secure the old high school building for public school purposes was due to some delay on his part. The chairman of the board has been par- ticularly active with regard to this matter. As soon as declared itself he put himself in munication with the mayor and coun- cil. He was disposed to hurry re sults, but was given to understand that the case had to pass through the usual routine, and so it was referred to the finance committee. There it is at présent, and the mayor had pro- mised to call the committee at * an early date. The old high school property abandoned when the council supplied {he money with which the present in- stitute was erected. Later it was turned over to the council and by the council to Queen's College or the School of Mines corporation when the the board of education com- was The story makes the Whig remines- cent.

As the son of a Canadian his appointment to office was referred to in the most com- plimentary manner. But it was not' expected that he would so soon, and | unnecessarily, 'put on "his airs. There may come a day, all loo soon, when the press will make him realize that it has an independence that will not | be affected by his importance.

CARMAN'S#CRITICISM. There were those who thought that Dr, Carman, in connection with the "duckson controversy, had spoken hastily when he launched his thunder- to Mr. Jack- son, and defended him in his alleged veterinary college was established. Since this latter institution has been closed the building has been partly l used for educational purposes, but not its allied schools, by tie college or be and according to the agreement tween the council and the School of Mines, the property reverts to the city when not used for academic (or college) plans. In suggesting the use of the high school building the board education has only the public good in old of 'view.

J. Buchanan Combats the Opinion Expressed by J. Ramsay Macdonald Britain Looks to Well-being of People. Kingston, Aug. 17.~(To the Fdit- or): In today's Whig, 1 have read a full column on "India's Race Trou- ble," some-of it in quotation marks, and some without them, but all ap- parently intended to be a rep a tion of what J. Ramsay Macdonald wrote after a few weeks There are some things in the i letter, which; if 'printed at all, one" would have thought would be followed by an editorial. As a Canadian, who has nofed and enjoyed British justife since 1888, 1 feel that such unfounded and questionable assertions should hardly he Passed unchallenged. This i ially true of the parts where he gets on, as was evidently his pu the beginning and indeed of his very short trip to gndia, to rail against the government of India. The problem of governing India is difficult enough. Th the weather these days has been a little warm yet it is not so warm by twenty-five or thirty degrees as that in which many of Britain's noble band of «vil servants silently sweat and labor for the well-being of the subjects of the Indian empire; hence I hope we shall have some edi: torial words of protest against such remarks as the following : "It" (the government) "takes its stand upon' two Toundation rocks, 'Prestige and 'Sedition,' the meaning of the former being that it can do what it likes, and of the latigr that if any Indian questions its doings, his house 'will be raided and he will be de ported." And again: "In the frank. est possible manner the Punjab government announces from the house tops that every Arya is an anarchist and every eritic a seditious person." Does any Canadian need to be told that such language is outrageous ? Ag a missionary and, therefore, a private person, who has spent probably as many decades of years in India as Mr. Macdonald did single months, 1 would oppose {o the first statement, my impression of the Indian civil ser vice by saying : It, the government of India, takes its stand upon two foun dation rocks, justice, and (he well-be- ing of the people, the meaning of the former being that even to its own hurt it will regard a man innocent till proved guilty, and of the latter that good government and fair play must be given to all without regard no class or creed, : Then with regard to what he says that government anpounces in the frankest possible way "from the bouse- say that I have just returned from India, and up to that time never saw the government so an- nouncing. Tired officers of govern ment, after a had day's work in the heat, often seek the housetops, 'pot tor announce; but to get a few hours need- od rest. But it mi intends to be | be Mr. Macdonald he here and not to be literally true. I think it would be still more helpful if he would go a step further and say it is not true at all. The last few days we have been no ticing ,in connection with the Crippen case how in comparison, j.e., with the United States mode of getting out confession "by the third degree," the officers of Britain were handicapped because no matter how strong the sus- picion may be upon a man, there must be. evidence before a man can be pro- ceeded 'against. Though British justice may be a little tardy, in the end it is better both for the individual and for the country. There are a few seditionists in In- dia, who have at times excited by false stories the ignorant honest mass- es. They carried on their open propa- ganda by speechés and newspapers for not have been tolerated by any other fgovernment under' the sun, e.g,' it was maliciously said that Europeans were putting poison in the wells to give people the plague. Civil ser vants in India with their high, al most adoring, attitude to "Duty," went quietly on their way even when their own lives were in danger. Sir Andrew Fraser, shot at as he entered a lecture hall, goes to the platiorm and delivers his lecture. Valuable lives are lost, Curzon Wyley, Commissioner Jackson and others. But still the rights of the individual must be guarded. Like the wheels of God, the wheels of justice in the empire grind slowly, but they grind exceeding fine. And now we see justice and confidence boing. established. vig civil service is perhaps the hi type in the empire. If an Indian, high or Jow, has a just cause, he is always anxious that he may be heard by a British of- ficer.

Often one and another has said to me, "My case is good; if only I could be heard by a European, I would be all right." Mr. Macdonald's remarks hardly tally with the wonderful things that are being done in India. Mercy and justice have kissed each other. Law: lessness, race fighting against race, has given place to order. In famine times the government of India, like a great Christian society, dispenses char ity and mercy in a scienlific large way, unprecedented in history. Over 25,000 miles' of railway open up and develop the country. The great arid tracts are made to bloom and blossom as the rose.
