TIIE TIMES COMMENT
London Juno 15 Tho Times this
morning in an editorial which pretty
fail ly roprosonts th feeling ex
pressed by theother morning pa
pers says Tho resolution to pay
tho Behring Sea award is another
gratifying instance of tho growth of
tho spirit of friendship and justice
toward England in a quarter where
until recently such feelings were
rarely exhibited It is a proof of
tho good feeling which wo cordially
rocognizo and reciprocato as well
as a good omen for the establish
ment of those closer and more cord
ial relations botweon tho two coun
tries toward whioh the best minds
on both sides of the Atlantic have
been Bteadily moving
nEoirnooiTY talk
In the House of Commons joster
day Mr Coghill Conservative mem
ber for asked if
in view of tho improvod relations
between the United States and
Great Britain tho former could not
be induced to modify its Custom
tariff
The Parliamentary Secretary for
Foreign Affairs Hon Mr Ourzon
replied saying that Hor Majestys
Government would bo glad to avail
itself of an opportunity for improv
ing tho commercial relations be
tween tho two countries But he
explained that Great Britain now
onjoyed tho most favored nation
treatment in all matters of com
merce and navigation and the Gov
ernment had no ground for believ
ing that a more favorable treatment
would be accorded Great Britain
CANADA AND TUE ALLIANCE TROJECT
Sir Charles Tupper the Canadian
statesman who has just arrived hero
from Canada is quoted in an inter
view as disoussing lengthily the re
lations between the United States
and Canada He said Canada
sympathizes very warmly with the
proposed rapprochemont between
Groat Britaiu aud the United Slates
It has always been our desire to
hard tho most frioudly commercial
relations with tho Ropublio but
hitherto the United States haB not
shown any disposition to reoipro
cate Tho MoKinley aud Dingloy
bills aud the Alien Labor laws pre
sented ooualusivo ovidonce on this
point I believe however that tho
prosont timo is a propitious ono for
the settlement of all questions
owing to tho changed temper of the
Amoricau people and I think thoy
can bo approached with a fair pros
pect of a just settlement Van
