A NAAROW ESCA PE' i Recently a despatch from London stated

The November number of the Canadian

Magazine gives abrief recital which is full of interest to all who take concern for the relations between Canada and the United Kingdom The story in brief is

that a bill was actually drafted by the Canadian Government for the repeal oi the preference and it would have been ln- troduced in the Canadian Parliament had not Mr. Chamberlain made a speech which included a promise to consider the

Obviously Cauada’s “free gift” of a tariii’ preference for British goods has had ,a narrow escape from being turned into an “Indian gift” and withdrawn. If the preference was freely glven.,as Sir Wilfrid ,and the Finance Minister said at its in» (caption, how can we afterward demand a quid pro quol Ot course Canadian inter- J este must be guarded. Canada First is at ', proper motto for Canadians. But we can- 7 not bully the Mother Country. We have no right to dictate to her in the matter of tariifs, just as _we would accept no die- tatlon in regard to our own ta;-if from Britain or elsewhere. It would appear , that there has been something of a spirit

of petulance displayed on our part in'

past twenty years, and in spite of Mr., Gladstone‘s pledge to withdraw, appears like a breach of faith to Russia' and Tur- key to say nothing of France and other lx.- terested powers. Of course, British oc-

cupation and administration in Egypt, have been of inealculable bereilt to the _ pceple there, but if the end justifies the I means it may te possible that Russia in; Manchuria may bring about a better or- der of things than would have existed under the stupid, non-progressive rule of Pekin. Russia builds railways at least,

in Manchu:-ia, just as Britain builds huge, irrigation dams across the Nile. ‘

Not long since a revolution in the 4

Hawaiian Islands, assisted from tte‘

United States. resulted in the overthrow ol \he native monarchy, and eventually in the annexation of the islands to the big Republic. Now another revolution in Panama is under way which has so far

honeiited greatly should it come under] Anierican control, and the construction of.
