PREFERENCE BOTH WAYS.

For something like three fourths of the wheat and flour consumed in the British

Isles is imported from abroad. The British agricnlturist might welcome such a duty with the hope that it would some- what increase the selling price of h$ own product, but the mass of consumers would think it to be the thin end of the wedge

of protection.

A large shMe of the wheat for feeding

the people of the United Kingdom °°mes from the United States and Russia. It is

an immense advantage to those countries to have free access to the British market, as they have. \Vheat-growing in the Un- ited States, forinstance would be to a con- siderable extent paralysed if this greatest

, of markets were suddenly closed to the American wheat-grower. The same would be true of the Russian Black Sea

country. But onthe other hand there is

danger that in the event some possible combination of powers against. her, Brit- ain might have her food supply cut off by being so largely dependent upon foreign and possibly hostile countries.

wslareca bleof ro

stimulus to wheat growing in Canada, would rapidly people our now unoccupied lands and so increase our strength and rprosperity while ensuring a food supply ' to the British islands, so long as Britain retains the mastery of the sea..

for 'the people of _.the :United

:own tariff and would resent aw inter- ference in such matters even by

Britain herself. We must there- fore concede the same rights to the Brit-

.ish people with regard to their trade pol- icy. But the matter is a fair one for dis- cusaion and for negotiation, too. Probab

ly there never was a time when the Gov

ernment and people of Great Britain were so ready as now to listen to a suggestion from Canadian statesmen. Pleased with

our pro-British tariff, gratified with our

aid in South Africa and doubly assured of our devotion -to the Sovereign and the flag, they could not well refuse to consid- er very thoughtfully any proposition which could be claimed to promise greater security at home and greater progress and prosperity in the Empi.re’s dependencies. There seems room for a campaign of edu- cation in Great Britain on this subject. We do not venture that the benefits-

claimed could be enjoyed by Canada and |Britain at the outset wholly without cost to the latter, but we are of opinion that the added cost of breadstuffs would be but a trifle compared with what British iree‘traders apprehend it would be.
