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)

Berlin is at variance with the British official communtpation, declaring that along the entire line the attacks of the British wer fruitless and that they suffered heavy casualties, Around Pozieres and the Foureaux wood the combatants came to grips in hand-to-hand fightingy South of the Somme Sunday was relatively calm, foldwing strong which Paris asserts broke down under the French fire, The Germans D the Verdun sector, according to Berlin, have gained some ground southjof Damloup, Considerable heavy artillery activity has been in progress a frarious other points around Verdun.The Austrians in the Carpathian region, threatened &ith a heavy Russian attack in the district southeast of Tatarow, have withdrawn their forces toward the main ridge of the Carpathians, the Vienna War Office announces.Petrograd reports the capture of additional men and guns in this region.While unofficial advices from Petrograd give a report of a five-mile gain by the Russians in the Riga region, the Berlin War Office says Rusvien attemprs-to advance southewst of that \u2018éity were brétén Up by the Germans, as also was 3 manoeuvre in which the crossing of the Styr river in Volhynia was the objective, On the other hand, Petrograd asserts \u2018that the Germans attempted an attack on the Stokhod river in Volhynia but were compelled to retire and that an effort of the Germans to recapture fost positions near Smorgon, to the east of Vilna, proved futile.Fresh advances by the Italians against the Austrians in the Trentino and Dolomites sector of the Austro-Italian theatre are chronicled in the Rome communication and further gains by the Russians against the Turks in the Black Sea littoral and farther south near Erzingan are reported by Patrograd.London, July 23\u2014The fourth week of the Somme battle begins well for the Allies and is expected to be fruitful of important developments.Before Saturday night the British began a new attack on the whole line {rom Posieres to Guillemont and the fact that General Haig bas been able to resume the offensive so soon after the unsuccessful German counter- sttacks of last week, in which very strong German forces were brought forward, is regarded as a good augury, The fighting has been of the fiercest character, the Germans working with their utmost strength to prevent the British from advancing to their third line positions, but when the last reports left headquarters in France the Australians had firmly established themwelves in Posieres and are resorted to have placed themselves astride the road in the direction of Bapaume, while at Guillemont and Longueval fortunes fuctuated, both places changing hands several times.Late tonight fighting was proceeding with the utmost violence.The German counterattacks recently delivered against the French front have proved equally unsuccessful, ard the Allies are now fighting slowly in the direction of Comblles, which is only two miles distant from Guillemont.According to a reliable estimate the British and French together have captured since July 1 more than $6,000 prisoners, 160 guns snd hundreds of machine guns.From the eastern frontier come further reports of continved Russian successes.General Kuropatiäin has cut Field Marshal Von Hindenburg's line at several points snd, according to an unofficial report, has penetrated « distance of five miles.Russian official reports of the operations in this | sector (Riga) are erceedingly reticent, but Von Hindenburg's line was considered the strongest on the whole eastern front, and that the Russians were able to break {t is regarded as most significant here.At the other axtremity of the long line the Austrians officially admit their withdrawal voward the main ridge of the Carpathians, and the Russians are within four miles of the Hungarian frontier, moving toward Maramaros Sziget.Except ja the Dniester region heavy fighting is proceeding along the whole front.There is no further official news of General Sakharoff's operations, but, according to unofficial accounts, he is on the point of entering northeast Galicia, General Boshmer and General Berthier being outflanked on the north and south.General Sakharoff's forcer are op- vosed to the forces along the Sohul : DEUTSCHLAND NOT CLEARED YET.Baltimore, Md, July 33\u2014The only thing that can be afirmed of the submarine Deutschland tonight is that she is alongside a pier in the Patapeco river where she was berthed fourteen days age when she completed her voyage from Germany.It was officially stated tonight that clearance papers as yet have not been fled.| .- - ves On Ground Gained TEI SERIES Temperatures: Minimum, 66.Maximum, 66.ONE CENT.Military Text Books WE HAVE ALL THE MOST IMPORTANT TITLES, SUCH AS PAPINEAU'S GUIDE, MILITARY LAW MADE EASY, INFANTRY TRAIN- , Bee, Ete.JOHN E.WALSH\u2019S Rez\u2019d., 11 ST.JOHN STREET.00108 0ops esas cams van TES EMA PTE, W: A;
