Thinks That Britons Can Hold Their Own. Wants Canada to Assist in Maintaining the Navy. Lonxpoy, Jan. 20.—Sir Michael Hicks- Beach, Chancellor of the Exchequer, speaking at Bristol last night ridicaled the notion of providing granaries, as has been suggested In come quarters. He said he was convinced that the British navy was strong enough to hold its own; and in any war England would kave manv friends ready to supply corn. Referring to the coming estimates he said that these would show that the gov- ernment was fully alive to keeping up the standardjof the army and navy, though he declared it was vot creditable to Canada or fair to English taxpayers that sucha colony should practically contribute noth- ing to the naval defences of the Empire. He hoped that Canada would svon turv her a:tention to this matter, adding that he was convinced that if she did not, the day would come when she would have a rude awakening which would be entirely her own fault. ene IMPORTANT AND SIGNIFICANT Statement of Mr. Chamberlain, It may be Necessary for Great Britain to “‘go it alone” in Respect to Turkey. Loxpoy, Jav. 20—Mr. Chamberlain, defending the government policy at Liver- pool, last evening, against the attacke of the Liberale, and referring especially to the Armenian and Cretan question said the impotence of the European concert is a discredit to al) Powers.

It may, however, be our duiy—I hope it will not—to reserve our right and independance to tdke isolated action. The Standard aod Daily Mail comment editorially upoo Chamberlain’s statement, characterizing it as most important and significant. MINING CERTIPIGATES, Personal Application Must be Made.
