NORMAN AT VANCOUVER AND MR. STEAD AT LONDON—THE ‘* PALL MALL GAZETTE’S”’ EDITORIAL ON MIDNIGHT TALK ACROSS THE WORLD. The three hours’ cable interview between Mr. Norman at Vancouver and Mr. Stead in London is the talk of the clubs. Mr. Stead writes hopefully of the great ob- ject lesson this midnight talk across the world affords. He says it is striking sym- bol, imperial unity snd prophetic of closer union. There is no danger that Great Britain will attempt to draw the imperial tie too tightly. ‘Phe ultimate tie between the English-speaking people is likely to be an alliance for mutual assistance against foreign foes and the creation of a perman- ent tribunal to arbitrate and conciliate. The text of the Pali Mall Gazette editor- ial referred to above was as follows : ‘**The shrinkage of the world under electricity, which is the most notable phenomenon of our century, has seldom been more remarkably illustrated than by the interview which took place last night between the editor of this journal and our special commissiomer. Mr. Norman. has at last found his way across the American con- tinent and on the eve of his departure for Japan, standing on the shore of the Pacific, he paused to hold an hour's conversation with his chief at a distance of over seven thousand miles. This interviewing tour around’ the world, in the course of which our representative has interviewed almost every colonial personage of note in the Dominion, from the Governor General to the Mayor of Vancouver, has now yielded the most extraordinary interview on record, Never before has modern journalism made so bold a use of the instruments which science has placed at its disposal. Between our special and his chief stretched an expanse of sea and land across which,thirty years ago, would have been impossible to exchange a communication in less than from three four months, but thanks to the enterprise and energy of cable layers and _ railroad builders in the last few years it is possible to hold a confidential conversation between London and Vancouver without a greater interval than four minutes between an answer and a reply. SOUR MINUTES INSTEAD OF FOUR MONTHS ! That measures the shrinkage of the plas- tic world beneath the magic touch of the electrical engineer. None of the wonders of the Arabian Nights can outdo the mar- vel of that midnight talk across the cable, in which a question framed on the banks of the Thames was answered on the banks of the Fraser river within acouple of minutes. In four minutes a circuit of 15,000 miles is complete. London can talk to Vancouver with no more delay than, if -the- were not, the Horse Guards can talk t» the War Office. The night was unpropitious, astorm raging inthe faraway western regions between Winnipeg and the Rocky mountains. There was interrupted conver- sation for nearly an hour, but although the temperature was below zero the damage was promptly repaired, the interrupted sentence was completed and the interview proceeded to its close as though no _bliz- zards had swept across the Northwest, and the wire instead of traversing the ocean depths and mountain heights had merely connected Hampstead and Wimbledon. This INTERVIEW AT 7,000 MILES RANGE Dominion, the hospitality he has experienc- ed and the cordial assistance rendered him in the attempt now being made to familiar- ize the old world with the aa sentiments and aspirations of Canadians are all tukens of the existence .of a com- munity of feeling and a consciousness of our unity, which cannot fail to be enor- mously strengthened by every fresh manifestation of the fact that distance has disappeared and space no longer ivtervenes as 4 barrier between the ocean-sundered members of the Imperial family. ** HAVING examined the formela from which Adauseu’s Botanic Balsam s prepar- ed, we recommend it a a sate sud -Telinble medicine fur the cure of asthwa, coughs, colds and all direeases oi ie thiuat, chest and lungs.

Cuanpirr, City Col- lector. dec30 lw dy wy is an object lesson of the first importance, for it teaches the world that distance has isappeared so far as transmission of ideas, is concerned, and as the government of | men, especially representative government | of men, tends to become more and more a| matter of ideas, it is impossible to over- estimate the political significance of the re- volution thus effected. As Sour commis- sioner remarked last night, the slender fila- ment of metal along which last night cross- | ed and recrossed the messages of sympathy and requests for directions, is itself a strik- | ing symbol of our iraperial unity, and pro- phetic of that closer union there is still to be between our island realm and WHAT SIR JOHN MACDONALD CALLS her auxiliary kingdoms. Regarded as a chain what can be weaker! The trailing | anchor of a sturm driven vessel might snap | the cable at either end, a gust of wind might bring the overhead wires to the ground, a prowling bear from the forest primeval clambering up the poles might in- terrupt the circuit. As a material it is as slender as the gossamer, and yet what chain of fortresses, what Roman wall of | frowning masonry could vie for 4 moment | in real potency as an Empire binder with this silent and secret highway of the thoughts of man. It makes neighbors of dewellers at the utter- most ends of the earth. The change cannot fail to impress the imagina- tion of statesmen and fill the hearts of our people with fresh hope as to the promise of the future. Our correspondent is evidently impressed with the danger of attempting to draw too tightly the im§ perial tie. Fortunately we need be under no apprehension on that score. England, after the next general election, will give Home Rule to Ireland. She is not likely to accompany that wise step in the direc- tion of judicious decentralization at her own doors by an endeavor to move in the other direction in her relations with the ‘Dominion. The ultimate tie between the English speakingj commonwealths seems likely to be an alliance for mutual “assist- ance against foreign foes, and a permanent tribunal of conciliation to which all ques- tions at issue between the fallies will be re- ferred. For the rest we must look to THE GROWTH OF COMMON PATRIOTISM born of the common interests and of « common tongue of the peoples now dwell- ing within earshot of each other, even though their habitations may be in the valley ot the Saskaichewan or on the banks of the Clyde.
