The King's Title

A SCOTTISH PROTEST

On June 22nd, the Scottish Patriotic Association held a meeting at the Borestono, on the fluid of Banuock barn, to protest against; the King's assuming the title of' Edward VIT,' The Weather was good, and there was a gathering of fully two thousand persons, Rev David Macrae, Presi dent; of the Association, occupied the ssbftlr. He was supported by \lr John Wilson, Glasgow, Vice-President ; Dr Munro, Glasgow, Vie?-Preaident,; Mr Obarlei Waddie, Edinburgh ; Mr Theodore Wapier, Edinburgh; Mr J Herd Brace, Prcgtonpans ; Mr Charles W Thomson, M,A. Gr»ns:emouth ; Dr Park, Glasgow j Mr J Stewart Binoa tyne, Horn Secretary ; and Mr John Bel], Eton Treasurer. Apologies for absence were road from Mr George Brace, St Andrews, and Mr John S Bae, Banff The following is the text of the pro test {— The Scottish Patriotic Asapciafcion's protest* Signed m the field of Ban nockburn, June 22nd, 1901, against the King'a Assumed Title of' Edward VII.' In accordance with the decision come to us by the Scottish Patriotic Associa Cion, wp, its office bearers and repre sentatives, have met today, on the historic field of Bannockbom, to sign a protest in name of tho Association, and of *11 Scottish people at hcme and abroad who are afc one with as, against the title of 'Kdward VII' which His Majesty has been led to assume. We protest against it as not only objection able on other grounds, but as misrepre senting before the eyes of tho world Scotland's historic position in relation to EBglnm!. We sre well aware that some of the English Edwards, to whom the term 'Beventh' points back, laid claim to Lordship over Scotland, and •ttempted, with the aid of powerful nobles mho had estates in both countries imd who allegiance vacillated, to force Scotland under the yoke of England. But the Scottish people, from first to last, indignantly rejected those unwar ranted claims, fought resolutely for tbeir fights and liberties, and in 1314, by their decisive victory over the English op this field of Bannockbarn, conclusively established the national independence Wfii«h Edward T and Edward II had §o persistently attempted to destroy. When, after the lapse of centuries, the two kingdoms agreed to unite, Scotland entered into the Union as a free and independent nation, exactly as England did. And the essential fea fiffire of the Union was that Scotland, though the smaller country, was not to become a part of England, or to have feer history absorbed ia the history of England, bat that she was, along with England, to form a new kingdom Id which both should merge. In token of this, if was made the first condition in the Treaty of Union thafe the United; Kingdom Bhjoftld be called, nofc England, bufc Great Britain, and its Kings Kings of dreat; Britain, not Kings of England, At the subsequent Union of 1801, tho lingdom became the United Kingdom of Great Britain and lieiand. As no Edward has over reigned over this! kingdom till now, His majesty ia it® Fit-sis Edward, not its Seventh.. To add to the King's name the term Seventh is thus, by one act* to-falsify history and to violate the fundamental conditian of Union. Ils Is to claim as English the kingdom and the Empire which every co;a struck from the Mint dec'ares to be British. It ia to claim that ths kingdom is still the king dom, of the English Edwards ; that Scotland is, and has always been, sim ply nn English province ; that she owed alleghoce to the English Edwards ev,«n^ while refusing to yio!d it j and that the- Scottish people, wiih all their &*i«oeg and Kings, were merely rebp^t againsfe the authority of the Kinga oft England.. Against this gross and oifensive misre* presentation of Fcotiand'a history wp, assembled thia day on the field of Ban cockburn, hereby, record our protest •Ah loyal British-c-itisens w& regret that the King, has assumed a title which Scottish people feel called upon to ig nore in order to restrain unimpaired ftbeij: loyalty to the British Grown and the British Government. We deeply regret also that, though His Majesty h*s been appealed to, he has given no promise to undo the wrong. Bat neither Kings nor Ooun lollors can alter the truth ; and if tfce title be not corrected at the Coronation it can never be other than a blot on the King'a ercutcheon, involving (as it does) a public breach of faith and a falsification of our national history. We make this protest, not only in tha Interests of historic truth ando£ Scot land's national rights, but in the in terests of British unity, fraternity, and peace, and of those great; principles of international justice and honour on which, the stability of the Empire m/asfc Ultimately depend, Signed on the Field of Bannock burn, ia name and by autho rity of the Scottish Patriotib- Association.

DEAR Sir, — For the last twelve months I have been completely ron down, suffering from Nervous Debility, Extreme Weakness, and other ailments incidental to my sex. My cendition was such I was quite unable to g^t about, or to do anything at all. When I heard of the greab benefit; other sufferers had derived from the use of Plaktekoa. I procured a bottle, using It aa directed, and the reault was »b gratifying as It was astonlehihg. I became quite well again, and able to get about as usual. I have ranch pleasure in sending you these few lines, make what yon like of them. Yours truly, Mns J. Row. P.S.—I can also recommend Planmkoa as a good medicine for tha blood and strengthening the system Kaiwarra, February 21st 1901 Dear Sir,—-Several months ago I had a very severe attack of influenza, which left me very much run down, and hardly able to stand, or evee use my hands. My wrists and ankles were much swollen, and very painful. Several things I tried without effect). A friend advised me to give Plantekoa a trial, which I did, and I am hapjjy to say before I had finished the second bottle I was thoroughlycured, aitd I may say I have felt no return whatever. I should like, also, to say a word for Plantekoa Ointment. My husband for a long time had badly cracked hands, (owing largely, no doubt, to the nature of his work), which defied all efforts at heal' ing; but when we once tried Plantekoa Ointment, the effect was wonderful. For chapped or cracked hands, cuts, etc., ib Is the very best and safeat remedy, and is one of those thing mo home is complete without. Youra sincerely, Mbs Wainright The Proprietor of Plantekoa Remedies receives fresh testimony every day from sufferera who have been cured by their use For chilblains and chapped hands use the mighty healer, Pkntekoa Olnt ment.
