The Quebec 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)

wholesale smuggling of English merchandise, particularly women\u2019s dress goods, into the United States, led to the seizure of the schooner Woodward Abrahams, which the revenue cutter Seneca towed into Philadelphia today.The Treasury Department, through special agents, has been working on the case for some time.Suspicion had fallen upon the Woodward Abrahams, and the revenue cutter Seneca was kept on the lookout for the vessel in the Delaware River and around the capes for a week or more.The inspectors at Philadelphia were notified to look beneath the schooner's cargo of plaster for about $100,000 worth of unmanifested dress goods from Nova Scotia.The department is awaiting a full report from the inspectors.CROWN PRINCE ~~ WRITES - LETTER FATHER'S POLICY \u2014INCI.DENT IS DEPLORED, Berlin, Oct.16\u2014The Crown Prince's letter, like his demonstration in the Reichstag in 1911, when he applauded an attack on the German Chancellor during à debate on Morocco, has struck a sympathetic chord in the public.mind, and he has added apparently to his popularity in taking a tsand against his father\u2019s policy.Even the radical Morgen Post says: \u201cPublic opinion is united in holding the Chancellor Von Bethmann-Hoil- weg would sacrifice the constitution and the welfare of the Empire to dynastic considerations, The Imperial Chancellor can rely upon no political party for support against the Crown Prince.\u201d The Conservative Post regards the letter as a gratifying incident.The other papers, however, while approving of the Crown Prince's purpose, treat the letter, especially its publication, as regrettable.The Kreuz Zeitung expresses regret at the publication of the news that the letter was sent to the Chancellor, while the Raidcal Vossische Zeitung and National Zeitung deplore the Crown Prince's step, although they demand full re- unuciation of the Hanover claim, The Tageblatt decidedly disapproves the letter.Nevertheless, it is certain that the Prince will be enthroned early in November, as the Prussian Ministry will have ample support in the Bundesrat.Arrangements are already being made in the Duchy of Brunswick for the enthronement.A motion whidh was adopted today by the Prussian Ministry and which will be proposed in the Bnudesrat, says that since Prince Ernest August of Cumberland has taken the military oath, and in a letter to the imperial Chancellor has Riven guarantees never to raise for himself or his father claims to the throne of Hanover, the Prussian Government regards the express renunciation of Hanover as unnecessary, The Prince will on ascending the Brunswiek throne have to take the oatk to observe the Imeprial constitution, which recognized Hanover as part of Prussia.| POMMERY THE LEADING CHAMPAGNE

16\u2014Indignation has been aroused in local Jewish circles anent the newspaper reports of the alleged Kieff \u201critual murder.\u201d for which a Jew is now being tried.It is pointed out by some of the principal Jewish citizens of this city that there have been 123 of these accusations made in Europe at various times, and that not once has there been a conviction, MEETING OF PROTEST.The first case on record is that of a boy named William, of Norwich, Eng, who has since been canonizea as a saint.This case occurred in 1144 at a time when the Jewish race was suffering severe persecution.In protest against the accusation of ritual murder, and disregarding the criminal merits of the Kieff case, the Jewish community has decided to hold a meeting of protest on this Sunday.HEBREW PAPER SPEAKS.Woiuld Hear Voice of Dominion Condem Russian Bureaucracy.The Canadian Jewish Times, published in Montreal, discussing the Beiliss case, says in part: \u201cThe outrageous Beiliss case, which began in th city of Kief, on Wednesday, October 8th, and which was planned by the Russian Government as a condemnation against the entire Jewish population of Russia.has been denounced by scientists, statesmen and authors of note in England, France and Germany, as well as hy representatives of the progressive elements within the Russian Empire.\u201cAt the joint meeting of the sections on forsenic

McLoughlin mine of the Santa Fe Coal Company today and marched three miles to the county jail at Trinidad, Fifteen deputies, armed with rifles, flanked the prisoners on either side, and a machine gun, mounted on an automobile, brought up in the rear, but in spite of this several of the 300 strikers who followed attempted to break through the lines and liberate the prisoners.Some seventy-five strikers gathered st the McLoughlin mine when they learned that 20 miners, whom they prevented from entering the mine yesterday had returned to work.\u2014\u2014 STEAMER ARRIVALS.New York: Kroonland,

Aikens at the afternoon session of the commission investigating the management of the Rockwood penitentiary.He told of extremely gross and abusive language used towards him in October last year.The doctor described him as a crank, disturber and other vulgar and profane things.The guard overheard part of the remarks.Deputy Warden O'Leary was also accused of sneering at the witness and using disrespectful language toward him in the presence of the con victs.His attitude towards witness was such that his influence over the convicts would be weakened.Just before the Dominion elections the deputy warden spoke to the witness about the candidature of Dr.Edwards.\u201cI don\u2019t think the people display much sense in bringing him out; 1 have no use for him,\u201d was the deputy\u2019s comment.In another case, when he was late in winding the electric clock because he had helped to clean up a sick convict who had vomited all over himself in his cell, he was censured by the deputy and told to mind his own business and wind his clocks.\u201cIf the convicts died you are not responsible.\u201d He claimed that the spy system was frequently resorted to by O'Leary, and he cited cases.He was needlessly ordered to stand out in the rain just at O'Leary's whim.Witness was in the shelter provided for just such weather.The spying apparently consisted in O'Leary\u2019s peeking around doors, trying to catch guards lapsing in their duty._ FRENCH MORE CAREFUL ABOUT THER POLICE THEY THINK AMRRICANS GIVE TOO LITTLE ATTENTION TO CHARACTERS OF RECRUITS.\u2014 re Paris, Oct.16\u2014Bvery summer brings to Paris, among the hordes of American visitoré, a number of men vitally interested in the administration of the police departments of various American cities.They come to investigate how \u201cthesé things are done in Europe,\u201d with the view to improving their own departments at home.They are welcome visitors at the Paris Prefecture of Police, and in the person of Emile Laurent, general secretary of the.Paris Prefecture, they have found a courteous host, but at the same time an official who has asked glmost as many questions as he answered.Mr.Laurent's curiosity as to police conditions in America has given him a rather definite opinion as to what may be the matter with the American system.This is what he has to say on the subject: \u201cIt is not my business to criticise the American police, but I venture ¢: express my personal opinion that a fundamental error in the American system is that insufficient attention is given by the administration of police in American cities to the characters of the recruits.Our system in France is to make a minute examination into the record of the applicant for admission to the force.We assume that a man who has at any time been guilty of the least dishonesty has a flaw in his character which will affect his conduct when he is exposed ot the temptations of a policeman.\u201cThe prefectures of police assume that if a man has reached the age of 24 without a blemish on his character, he will remain honest for the rest of his life.Candidates must have their written records of conduct while in the schools and in the army.Even « single bad mark often disqualifies.I do not consider the French system infallible, of course, but the rarity of scandalé jndieates that it is a good one, cin ema.m0 aE EER SE RSESE The Weather

Borden's cablegram to Premier Cook of \u2018Anstralia breathes the true feeling and represents the true aspirations of the people of Canada.\u2018\u2018Be assur- od,\u2019 he says, \u2018\u2018that Canada stands shoulder to whoulder with Australia and the other overseas Dowtinions in the firm resolve to safeguard our common heritage.\u2018There je not a Gagadian warthy of the name who ces not re-echo these sentiments from his heart.But tan we imagine a message couched in such language soming from Sir Wilfrid Laurier.He does not wish Cannda to stand shoulder to shoulder with Britain or Australia or any other overses Dominion, but in a position of carpiug isolation, measuring her own safety ugainet the possible dismemberment of the Empire snd sponging on the Mother Country so long as it suits his book, Borden rings true, Laurier false.But, if that is true of the original cablegram, with what sort of feelings would Raurier, as Premier of Canada, have received the following reply : \"We are celebrating today the complefion of au Australian anit of the Empires peace-compelling navy, gladly eharing the obligations for the defence of the whole of the King's Dominions.\u201d Australia is doing ler part.We want to do ours, but Laurier blocks the way for the time being and has deliberately by word and deed given encouragement to the enemies and iH-wisbers of the Empireper annum.STREET CAR VENTILATION.We are heartily in accord with the letter which appeared in our issue of yesterday and which drew attention to the need of having the best of ventilation in our street cars.At this period when the winter is so close at hand it is very necessary to emphasize the facts that foul air is a great danger to the health of the community and that ventilation is demanded by every principle of hygiene.Of course, there is no need to go to extremes and it should be easy enough for the conductors to determine how much ventilation js required to keep the car fresh and healthy instead \u2018of sliowing it to become a stuffy and stifling abomination.The same thing applies and with even more force tn the cars on our railways.On entering some of \u2018these after the weather gets colder one has almost to pesh his way sometimes through an atmosphere of malodorous smells massed together.One does not asad to be a medical man to realize how unhealthy wach conditions must be.THE ADMIRALTY ANSWER.Sir Wilfrid's statement that there is no emergency \u2018because the British navy, which was collected in home \u201cwaters, is now \u2018'scattered to the ends of the earth\u2019 was not long unchallenged.The Admirslty has promptly apawered s-query in the following terns \u2014 \u2018Bir Wilfrid is hopelessly wrong in his facts.The whole of the battle equipment of the Empire remains ln the North Ses.On November 1, Sir Stanley Colville takes with him, in order to carry out joint \u2018+ manoeuvres in the Mediterranean, & squadron consisting of three battie-cruisers and some small cruisers.On December 22 ali these ships return to home waters.They can be spared for a short period only, because, from October 1 till Christmas, the German navy is at its lowest strength.From Christmas onwards they remain in home waters, to ensure the complete defense of the Empire at central points from any possible attack.\u201d Sir Wilfrid apparently knows as much about the plans of the AdDiralty as he does of the ability of Canada to build a Dreadnoughtx \u2019 A CHANGE OF HEART.A great change seems to have come over the moral and mental outluok of Le Soleil since it and its friends have heen condemned to the cold shades of opposition by the voice of the Canadian electorate.Nowhere is this change more noticeable than in ita frantic efforts to work up alleged scandals out of various transactions connected with the publié works being carried on in this neighborhood by the government.Take for instance its attack on those connected with the purchase of some property in Levis which was afterwards sold to the Harbor Commission.If there is anything wrong connected with this transaction, we shall be the first to ask for an investigation, hut we arg confident that the accusations sre inspired far more by political malice than by any other motive, and that those who are attacked will he well able to defend themselves.If Le Soleil is going to attempt the role of a purifier of public morals\u2014 save the mark\u2014it is surely rather late in the day to set about it, as it had no lack of opportunity to do so during the regime of the Liberal party.There was seandal after scandal which should have been exposed but Le Soleil never opened its mouth but in the effort to explain them away, never moved its hand but to administer a thick coat of whitewash.Perhape Le Soleil remembers an occasion when : Benator Choquette bought the Joseph property and sold it to the government at a handsome profit.Did it nd fault with that transaction?Far from it.When the person involved is one of its political friends, then everything is legitimate and above-hoard, But when any of its political opponents sell anything to the government, then it must proclaim on the house tops that there has been some crying scandal, ete.ete.Les temps sont changes, cher Abner! BYE-ELECTION MORALITY.The Liberal party, thrown into a state of consternation over the result of Chatesuguay, has decided, it le mid, to protest the election.Some explanation of the stunning blow administered to that party in the crushing defest of ex minister Fisher in à former Liberal hive, must be forjheoming and that right quickly.Hence, a ususl ia wich oases, every species of corruption known to the ingenuity of man is forthwith ascribed to their sucessful opponents.This poet election whining is poor Wasiness at best.It ie, however, ludicrous in the extreme when it pro- condo from the columme of papers that sendoned the w- I eo eae * .Tt Stan J AB a Liberal electorate rascalities of Brockville and West Huron, the exploits of Cap.Sullivan, and of \u2018\u2019Hug the \u2019 Preston, the cruises of the notorious \u2018Minnie M.\u201d and the doings of Leach who disfranchised hundreds of Conservatives in Manitoba by the employmeat of his infamous thin-red-line methods.Neither party has a monopoly of political purity.Neither enjoys one exclusive copyright of electoral wrongdoing.And no amount of \u2018\u2018copy\u2019\u2019 manufactured by the Grit bureau at Montreal or Ottawa will con- vinee the public that the Tories were corruptionists and the Grits purists in the conduct of the fight in Chateauguay.It was undoubtedly a keen contest.Fisher is a wealthy and an ambitious man.He spent money like water in the Liberal publicity campaign last winter.He made a stupendous effort to get back into parliament vis Chateauguay last week.The expense of his campaign was enormous.Practically every prominent Liberal member of parliament from Quebec and Ontario, including Laurier, Graham, Lemieux, Marcil, MacKenzie-King, together,with a seore of lesser lights, stumped the county with him.Public pageants with Sir Wilfrid as the central feature were staged.An elaborate and expensive organization was maintained.Canvassers, heelers, pamphleteers and other nondescript election agents overran the constituency.The Conservative campaign, if not so elaborately staged, was aggressively pushed, and the Conservatives won out.It is quite certain that a large amount of money was spent on both sides, and unless the contest differed from all others ever held under similar conditions, some of it was probably spent carruptly.Under such circumstances, for the beaten party to publish broadcast its complaints of the conduct of the other side is the customary thing, but it is not sportsmanlike.It is, however, uscless to reason with a party which is experiencing such a sickening sensation as is the experience of our Liberal friends at the present time.* Comment of The Press Referring the other day to feeling nervous when making public speeches, Sir Thomas Dewar told a story of a man who was suddenly called on to make a speech.He was very nervous and self-conscious, but he began: \u2018'Ladies and gentlemen, Shakespeare is dead.\u2019\u2019 Here he paused a second to think, and then went on: \u2018' Milton has passed away.\u2019' Again he stuck and tried again: \u2018* Tennyson is no more.\u201d For the third time he came to a dead stop, and, at last, miserably confused, he blurted out: \u2018And I'm not feeling very well myself!\u201d Then he sat down.\u2014Pearson\u2019s Weekly.A glance at the front page of the papers for the past fortnight or so shows one thing very prominently : murderous attacks on women by a type of human wild beast representing the survival in man of the instincts of the tiger and the ape are startlingly common and must be sternly reckoned with.Schmidt, Spencer, Spurgeon, the as yet undetected ruffian who butchered that former Milwaukee school teacher, and others whose names escape one at the moment.What u list in this Christian era that plumes itself on the work of \u201csocial uplift!\u201d Capital punishment may, not be the ideal deterrent.But the fact remains that in England (where the swift and sure sequel of murder is the gallows) the crime of murder is so rare es to startle the public when it occurs: whereas with us (with shame and sorrow be it said) it is a commonplace of the daily paper.With such brutes abroad, women must be circumspect and the authorities diligent: and it is high time to try a little English expedition and directness in the courts\u2014it is better than the American recourse, lynching.\u2014 Milwaukee Sentinel The death of Dr.Charles L.Leonard from a disease due to his work with the X-Ray machine, has added another name to the long list of heroes of the laboratory.Dr.Leonard suffered for nine years before he passed away.The habit of carping at the medical profession is not uncommon.Yet there incidents now and then which show the ideals of the profession to be very high.Since Professor Rontgen announced the discovery of X-Rays in 1896, several medical men have fallen victims in the attempt to gain for humanity benefit from the use of the discovery in medical apd surgical work.Dr.Leonard himself stuck to his task after his hand had been amputated.If any serious proportion of the public were to lose faith in the medical profession great would he the opportunity for quacks and frauds to { Vietimize the people\u2014something which is too rife now.! Railing against the doctors, because some doctors have | heen foolish or wicked, is silly and harmful, just as sensible as railing against religion or the church he.cause some clergymen have not heen faithful to their trust.The self-sacrifice of a Dr.leonard now and then illustrates that the standards of the medical profession have not deteriorated.\u2014Ottawa Journal.Tn spite of his crimes and pretensions, General Huerta never was accepted in Mexico an the lawful President.His dispersal of (\u2018ongress and imprisonment of more than one hundred meinbers are proofs that he has never been recognized by his own people even as dictator.Porfirio Diaz was President-Dic- tator far more than a quarter of a century.There some executions and a few mysterious disappearances during his term, but when he lost control of Congress he did not dragoon ft.He fled the country, Huerta, a weaker man, a creature of assassination, with more than half the so-called republic in revolt against him and with no title whatever to office save that given by the grudging toleration of Congress, reveals himself at home and abroad an a common tyrant by destroying the last vestige of constitutional government.This is the desperado who is now notified from Washington that he will be held responsible for the lives of the legisiators whom he has imprisoned.It is to be feared that threats and entriesties in his case are equally vain.The same facility in falsehood that cheeked out the murder of Madero, that flaunted the lie in the face of John Lind that peace had been restored, and that has sinee given the world polite assurances that a free and fair election would soon be held, will not fail Huerta if he shall conclude to subject his prison- tion on the part of the usnrper, the Constitutional forces ought not to be long in reaching the capital.They are the true liberators of Congress and they ought to be the sole avengers of the crimes that have -\u2014\u2014\u201d THE QUEBEC CHRONICLE.SASCHRETS\" IF CONSTPATED SC EADY, BLIOLS-~DNE BO \u2014\u2014 Turn the rascals out\u2014the headache.biliousness, comstipation, the sick, sour stomach and foul gasee\u2014turn then out tonight with Cascarets.Don\u2019t put in another day of distress.Let Cascarets sweeten and regulate your stomach;

the Michigan territery and the western district of Upper Canada.We understand that the army was short of provisions before the late action on Lake Erie, and that the hope of supplies was founded on our fleet being able to open communication by that Lake.That hope having vanished by the loss of our fleet, want of provisions may probably have induced that distinguished officer to retire from a country, the occupation of which was of so much importance, and in which, with the assistance of the Indians inhabiting the country south of the Great Lakes, a iew hundred British troops have furnished occupation to from 5,000 to 10,000 of the enemy, and captured more than four times their own number.If it be true as is stated that a thousand of these Indian warriors have followed General Proctor.It is an example of fidelity, under the most trying circumstances, of which those who dominate themselves civilized.have rarely been found capable.Yet these are the people whom some persons would have us believe that England is about to abandon.We venture to assert that not one inch of territory belonging to Great Britain or of her allies in this war will ever be abandoned to the United States.FEAR FOR DIAZ.He May be Assassinated on Arrival at Havana, Havana.October 15\u2014General Felix Diaz, who is now on his way from Europe to Mexico, is believed to be in danger of assassination
