Titre :
Quebec morning chronicle
Sous un titre qui a varié (Morning Chronicle, Quebec Morning Chronicle, Quebec Chronicle), un journal de langue anglaise publié à Québec qui met notamment l'accent sur l'actualité commerciale et maritime. [...]
Fondé en 1847 par Robert Middleton et Charles Saint-Michel, ce journal est d'abord connu sous le nom de Morning Chronicle. Son programme éditorial est tourné vers les intérêts britanniques, ce qui plaît aux conservateurs et aux impérialistes. Toutefois, cela n'en fait pas une publication politique pour autant puisque l'on y évite les longs éditoriaux et les sujets polémiques, probablement pour se différencier du Quebec Gazette, ancien employeur de Middleton et féroce concurrent. Le contenu est plutôt centré sur l'actualité (majoritairement en provenance d'autres journaux anglais et américains), sur la vie commerciale et maritime, ainsi que sur la littérature (peu présente pendant les premières années). La ligne éditoriale du journal est définie comme suit : « [.] in the management of The Morning Chronicle we shall, therefore, begin by simply declaring, that, as we glory in our connexion with the British Empire, it will be our undeviating aim and unremitting endeavour, to create and foster a cordial attachment to those time-honoured institutions which have made her so illustrious in the annals of the world ». (May 18, 1847, p. 2)

[Traduction]
« [...] la direction de The Morning Chronicle, par conséquent, débute en déclarant simplement que, comme nous sommes très fiers de notre relation avec l'Empire Britannique, notre but sera sans détour de créer et d'entretenir un attachement aux honorables institutions britanniques, qui se sont grandement illustrées à travers l'histoire mondiale ». Sous Charles Saint-Michel (1849-1860), le journal devient le porte-parole des aspirations de la bourgeoisie commerciale anglaise et les sujets politiques prennent une part plus importante. L'esprit protectionniste, rattaché au torysme, teinte la rédaction. Durant la période de la Confédération, le Morning est utilisé comme tribune pour faire la promotion des idées de John A. Macdonald. Toutefois, l'attrait premier du journal reste avant tout la vie relative au commerce. En 1874, une fusion avec The Quebec Gazette met fin à une concurrence jugée ruineuse. Fondé en juin 1764, c'est l'un des plus vieux journaux d'Amérique du Nord. Une nouvelle entente survient en 1924. Pour mettre fin à une concurrence qui les affaiblit, le journal alors connu sous le nom de Quebec Chronicle and Quebec Gazette et le Quebec Daily Telegraph (fondé en 1875 par James Carrel, il défend les idées populaires et est reconnu comme étant libéral) s'associent et deviennent le Chronicle Telegraph. Les nouvelles prennent une place prépondérante dans les colonnes de la « nouvelle » publication. À partir de 1934, le journal est connu sous le nom The Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph. Il paraît toujours aujourd'hui. Voici les différents titres que le Quebec Chronicle-Telegraph a connus depuis ses débuts : Disponibles en ligne : The Morning Chronicle (Jan. 1847 - Nov. 1850) The Morning Chronicle and Commercial and Shipping, 1850-1888 The Morning Chronicle (Feb. 1888 - May 1888) The Quebec Morning Chronicle, 1888-1898 The Quebec Chronicle, 1898-1924 Non disponible en ligne : The Chronicle Telegraph (1925-1934) The Québec Chronicle-Telegraph (1934 à ce jour)

marriage.The millionaire\u2019s wife and daughter were passengers on the \u201cScot\u201d and witnessed the coor-ageous efforts of Mr.Clifford to rescue Mr.Barnkto.Mr.Clifford is considerably richer

Sir Wilfrid ijaurier, the Canadian Premier, in which the latter said that during hit stay in Paris he had been struck by the signs of enmity displayed towards England, probably dne to the Egyptian question, and by the activity of the colonisation spirit of the French people.QolonisaUon, said Sir Wilfrid, presented great difficulties to France because the country has no surplus population.The Premier further said that the Canadians considered that the United States had committed two blunders.The first was the giving of excessive power to the Republicans after the war.The defeat of Bryan, he declared, should aerve as a lesson to tbe Repnblicane and should induce on their part moderation and prudence.The second blunder, he said, was tbe wholesale application of universal suffrage, which should not be a mere birth« right but ahould be won by an effort, however alight.BURNED TO DEATH IN LONDON.The use of kerosene as a stimulant for the hair ie becoming common in Europe, and already several persona have either loet their livee or been frightfully disfigured by not exercising proper oare when near a fire.The latest victim ie Mrs.Samnelson, a daughter-in-law of Sir Bernhard Samuelson, a well-known engineer, who was bnrned to death in a bur dreseet\u2019a shop in Conduit street.A man named Kopf, an attendant in the shop, testified at the Coroner\u2019s inquest that after he had used tbe oil on tbe bead o{ Airs, Samuelson, he was twisting her t»ir te dry it.Suddenly there waa a ftaah, and ha and Mrs.iSamuelaon were wrapped in Qatnea.He declared tfiat ike fire mutt have been of spuutepeoua origin, a* there waa no gaa or other dame in the room.The weather waa very hot and the aun was shining into the loom through a skylight.GHASTLY DISCOVERY IN A CHURCH.A special despatch from Madrid states that the bodies of twenty-six infants in ro«gh deal boxes have been discovered in the tower of St.Peter\u2019s Church at Seville.It ie supposed that a wholesale crime has been committed by the Church Warden, Cecillia, and hia wife, and they have been arrested.THAT NORTH POLE CANARD.A despatch from Copenhagen says that the report of the capture of a carrier pigeon in the vicinity of Tromaoe Island, near the north point of Norway, stamped with the words and figures \u201cNorth Pole passed 15,\u201d is not true.A woman's best 4e w els are her »bes.A healthy, happy child is womanhood's moat appropriate ornament.A childless , woman is to be pit- / led, even though \u2019 she he the possessor of other Jewels that are priceless.A womanly woman knows this and would sacrifice all the diamonds of all the nations foi the clinging, confiding touch of baby hands.Thousands of women lead childless, love-* less lives because of ill-health.They do not understand the duties that they owe to them-t selves.They neglect the most delicate and important parts of woman\u2019s organism.They suffer untold agonies from weakness and dis-ease of the organs that make

Q.C., M.L.O., breathed his last at hta residence on the Ste.Foye Road.The deceased was born in Quebet on March 12th, 1819, being therefore 78 years of ago at the time of his death.His father, the late John Ross, was for many years Prothonotary of the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench, Quebec, and his mother, Margaret Ross, was a native of Prince Edward Island.Mr.Ross received his liberal classical education under the lato Dr.Daviel Wilkie and at the Quebec Seminary, being admitted to the practice of law in 1848.In 1873 ho became a Queen\u2019s Counsel, and was thoroughly conversant with both the French and English languages.He took a first-class cer tificate at a military school, and during the Fenian raids he raised a company of _fifty men whom he prepared for the frontier.When he retired from service it was with the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel.In 1878.he was elected a member of the Legislative Assembly, for the County ot Quebec, and on the 8.h of March, was sworn in aa At torney-General of the JolY' Administra tiou.On October 30th, 1879, he resigned with his colleagues, and in 1881, temporarily retired from politics.In 1887, he was called to the Legislative Council by the Hon.Mr.Mercier, and became President of the Executive Council.He was also a Director of the Quebec & Lake St.John Railway, and was President of St.Andrew\u2019s Society, the Litefary and Historical Society, etc.In 1872, he married Harriet Ann Gibb, widow of the late James Gibb, Jr.Notwithstanding his numerous occupations, the deceased gentleman was an extensive traveller, and saw a

1897.\tco-td Through the death of the Hon.D.A* Ross, which is deplored by so many of our citisens,\u2014for he was a man of exceedingly good parts and qualities, genial to a degree, and widely sympathetic,\u2014a vacancy, which belongs to the English Protestant faith in this district, has been created in the Legislative Council.It will be difii cult in many ways to quite fill this va cancy.There are few men of mentil equipment left among us, who can bring to bear the uprightness and sterling integ rity of the gentleman who has so recently passed away.Without being a statesman of the first rank, he was always a man of energy^ and his love for Quebec and her historical surroundings was unsurpassed by any of his colleagues.For many year* he had been an adherent and member of St.Andrew\u2019s Church, and may, therefore, be regarded as having sat in the Council as a special representative of the Presbyterian element.When Mr.Mercer added to his Government a Protestant member, h:s eyes naturally turned to Mr.Joly\u2019s late Attorney-General, and Mr Ross became his colleague, in the Ministry as well as in the Upper House.By his death, Mr.Marchand is bereft of an old and valued friend, and his first duty will be to appoint in the stead of Mr.Ross, a gentleman who will, to a large extent, be capable of fulfilling the important obligations, which have so well been carried out by the deceased statesman.In this connection, naturally enough, the public eye has been directed to two pro minent members of the Liberal party in this district, Mr.Richard Turner and Alderman Cook.ftlr.Turner was men tinned for the position upon the death of its former occupant, the Hon.Mr.Savage, ami if we remember correctly, he declined nomination.Either Mr.Turner or Mr.Cook would make a most desirable Legislative Councillor.Mr.Turner is one of our leading business men and most res pected citizens.Mr.Archibald Cook is an Alderman of the city, and a gentleman of large views and excellent business abilities If his tastes are inclined to political ends, and it is just possible that he may have an ambition in that direction, no better successor to the late Mr.Ross could be had.He is progressive, he is a good debater, he .speaks with the skill of the man who has something to say, and knows how and when to say it.Ho is, in a word, a good all-round man, popular with young and old, and fitted in every way, to adorn any post which his admirable citizenship calls upon him to occupy.If Mr.Cook is named Legislative Councillor, the city and Province will have no reason to complain of Mr.Marchands selection of a sue It has come to the conclusion that even the British themselves are dissatisfied with Britain's constitution and bases tl\u2019iis belief upon proposed reforms that are ttrgcd by some of the English newspapers.Yet the Shu cannot but know that the British constitution has strained to its present form, only after repeated changes agitated for years and years and finally effected, only to give birth to the demand for additional amendments.It is a product of an evolution that has not yet evolved the fittest that is possible, but that in the opinion, at least of the majority of those who are affected hy it, has permitted\tthe\tsurvival\tof\tbrtiy\tDial which\ttv a* fittest\tîn\tw\\iat\thas beeh hi the pàst.Every British tax-p&yer claims an inalienable right to grumble at both the taxes he has to pay, the rulers who impose them and the provisions of the law or the constitution under which they have been imposed.Whenever the public dissatisfaction with the making of any particular provision of the British constitution assumes» the character of a popular dgitatioh, the elasticity in the Working* of such constitution not infrequently affords the desired Measure of reform.When this fails the remedy CortieS with amendments in the khape of new Reform Acts, marking both the evolution of the constUùtion and the fact that perfection has not yet been found in eventhe very best of human institutions.The New York Snn sees nothing to admire in either the elasticity or evolution of the British constitution, but criticises it in th'ë following terms :\u2014\u201ctn reality, of codrse, it is not surprising that intelligent British critics Should see Weaknesses in their forth ttf Government.Theit political system is; in fact, the most heterogeneous and complex which was ever in operation in any nation or any age.It is Imperial in thé sense that the Governors or Executives of many of the Provinces of its World-Empire are appointed by the Crown ; it is Federal hi the sense that many of its Colonies; While subject to the Central Government in England, have home rule ; it is Monarchical for the reason that it has a Sovereign Who in theory is invested with certain Executive powers, while it is Democratic through the Franchise Acts of 1832, 1867 and 1884, which steadily enlarged the electorate, bringing what can practically be called manhood suffrage, and placing the ultimate authority in the hands of the people or their servants in the House of Commons.Nothing like the number of anomalies, complexities, antitheses, incongruities snd inconsistencies were ever found in any other Constitution over devised or evolved as reside in the Governmental system of Great Britain.\u201d Those are very long and very hard words that the Shu applies to tbe system of Government under which we so happily thrive, but the very characteristics of the constitution that our contemporary so designates are those which ensure its popularity and success.And unconsciously enough, the Sim, in the course of its criticism, pays the highest possible compliment to the excellence of the British constitution.It is Imperial, as the \u2022Mm itself says, in the sense that Britain\u2019s smallest and most remote Colony can count upon the whole might and power of the Empire in the event of emergency.It is Federal in the sense that many of its dependencies enjoy all the privileges and benefits of Home Rule, though nominally subject to the central power.It is Monarchical, and so avoids the periodical disturbances that attend the frequent selection of a new chief of the Federal Executive, and it is Democratic in that it places the ultimate authority in the hands of the people or of their servants in the House of Commons.In pointing out these characteristics of our constitution, it is strange indeed that it has not occurred to the Sun that it has proved our Governmental system to include the very best provisions of all the known forms of constitutional government.\tf The festivafof the aaihl approaches, the heat ln;-cfeaies, apd the inçrease of tourist.and other travel is well nigh causing the traffic of this small line to congeal.It is well for the Company and it is well for the employees, who will profit hy its good times as they suffered during Us evil days, but the men on whose physical and menial power, coolness of nerve and clearness ot eye the lives of thousands daily depend, should not be obliged at any time (and least of all io this frightful heat) to work from 18 to 22 hours daily as they are doing If a third horse was ordered on the over, crowded Beauport stags, ought there not to be a spare gang of men for the relief of the regular workers, who are all sober and oblig*

LANGLOIS, AGENT, Mountain Uil:., Quxrko.June , 1897.\tiuon&sat-Lm PUBLIC NOTICE From Time immemorial, cm- zens of the City of Quebec have taken upon \u2022hemselves to place in front of their houses or shops, structures, etc., projecting into or over tbe streets.The law, 29 Vic , ch.67, sec.33, sub-see.7, of the year 1865, reads as follows : \u201cIt is strictly prohibited to have any gallery, window, prrtico, staircase, sign, or other obstruction, extending or projecting from any house or building into or beyond the line of any street, road, lane or public plaoe in the said o ty ; and tbe City Surveyor snail, without previous notice, cause any such to be removed at the expense of the proprietor of such nouse or building ; which said costs and charges .hall be recovered by an action of debt by the said Corporation before the Recorder\u2019s Court\u201d In spite of that law, constructions projecting into certain streets have been tolerated.But on account of certain difficulties recently raised concerning constructions of that description, I feel obliged to enforce the law above quoted.In consequence, I give notice to and require all whom it may concern, to remove and sup* press, without delay, any construction, obstruction, or thing whatsoever, projecting into or over streets in this city, including bay-windows, oriels, signs, barkers\u2019 posts, sunshade posts, door steps, galleries, eta, etc.OH AS.BAILLAIRGE, City Engineer.June 16,1897.Board of Health Office, 1807-1808.Iiwpvlion 0/ if ilk, Licenses for Milkmen, and' Milk Dealer».nrovxoxj, The milkmen and Milk
