Canada's Loyalty.

|PA.TRIOTfO SPEECH BY THE (PREMIES

The Dominion Bouse of Oomtoorß oa March 12 r>jpcted by 144 vote* to three a resolution moved by Mr 6ou rassa, member for LabeUe, asking that no more Canadian troops should be sent to South Africa, nnd »liat then* should be no enlistment m Canada of recruits for the South African Oon etabalary. Th« only ppeech mHde m aappor*j of the motion was that of Mr Bonrassa himself, wbo, it will be remembered, resigned his Beat over a year ago, m a protest against the de spatch of the Canadian contingents, and during tho l<st session delivered an ftnti Imperial address which evoked from Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the Canadian l*rfcinier, an intensely patriotic speech. After showing the "extreme anti- Liberal tendency of a morion which proposed to hinder Canadians from serving their King m any way tint Beamed beet to ihem, Sir Wilfred l«»u ---rier con^inad:—Some of nay hon. friend's argumfti',9 hn.vp b^eu -so unfair, ■0 unjust to the British Government th;»' I fflei cona'rtiiied to place before the House the other >ida of the ques tion. (Offers) My hon friend spoke eloquently of the otispries of war, of the destruction of farms, of the burning of house?, and 1 take no exception to that he said m that respect. Miserable indeed is to day the condition of the once proud South African Republic— miserable by reason of its ruined farms, its closed mints, is cities arrested m their growth, its people impoverished, its aged President a fugitive m Europe —a fugitive from the misery which lit has brought upon his own country. Miserabfe indeed is the condition of the once happy Grange Free State, who had oo quarrel with Great Britain, but which was precipitated into the horrors of war and invasion by the man to whom It had entrusted its des tinies, himself to day a self constituted outlaw m his own country. Those men appealed to the God of Battles, and the God of Battles had pronounced against them. (Ohaers). They in vaded British territory, and their ter ritory was invaded m turn, and it was annexed to the Biitish domain m con s qaence of the terrible logic of war. The mover of this resolution would have the Government of Great Britain an do what has been done, and place the rebellious Boers back m the posi tion which they previously occupied, and which they have forfeited; The answer to that is a very simple one. The leader of a defeated people has no right to complain if he receives the same treatment which he applied to his opponent m bis hour of victory. Mr {j-ppaker continued Sir Wilfred Laurier 1 believe there was logic m the method followed bj the burghers m the open iner stagtß of the war. They bid down the principle ihat Sonth Africa had to be either Du'ch or British, oiid the verdict of the God <f Armies lias been that it should not be Dutch but Brit ieh. (Loud cheers) The responsibility added Sir Wiifred, for all Me calami ties which have been brought upon the Boera lies on no other head than that of the late Preaideut of the Transvaal. In conclusion, Fir Wiifred said — Now there ia but one future for the Dv eh. They have been cotquered, but I pltdge my reputation and my name aa a British subject that if they have lost their independence, Ih^y hay not lost their fretdom. (Cheers) There ia but one future for South Africa, and that is a grand confederation on the pattern of the Canadian confederation. It is a federation m which Cope Colony and Natal, the Orange Free Statr-, the Transvaal, and Rhodesia shall he united under the federal constitution tinder the Bri'ish fl«g, and under the Sovereign of Etiglar.d My hon friend will agree with me that when they have the British fhg ov r South Africa, they will have that which has been found everywhere during the last sixty years under the Britisn flig, namely, liberty for all, equality for all, justice and civil rights for British aud Butch alike. (Loud cheer?,) On th® announcement of the result of the division, the members rose and sang the National Anthem.
