Becoming moro and moro notorious
is the fact that England 10 wearied with
Canada's ever recurring demands for
protection, and her proneness to stick
her nose into affairs which in the Or
binary course are none of her business.
English free trade and Canadian pro-
lection are about as irreconcilable -
are these same issues in the United
States, and IN the end either Canada
will DO compelled by the mother coun-
try to fall into line, or to set up bust
ness for herself. In addition to this
divergence of public policy, Canada
presumes and has presumed to inter-
fere with the action Of other English
colonies, notably the reciprocity ar.
ranged by New Foundland with us.
The Behring sea question would never
have assumed the importance, not to
say threatening aspect, it did assume
had it not been for Canadian encroach-
ments upon our acquired rights and
jurisdiction, and it 10 not too much to
say that had We dealt as severely with
Canadian poachers Is England
deals with poachers on her closed
preserves, the question would
have been quito as amicably
settled ~ it now will be. Canada's
connection with England is little less
than an anomaly, self-governing COL
ony, owing allegiance to q superior ma
ton, but disregarding that allegiance
in almost every particular when public
or private interests are involved. An
tsgon;stic on the greatest economic
question Of the day. Too American
to be English. too English, in a sentl-
mental way, to be American. A thorn
IN EnRland's side. A menace to the
pleasant relations existing between
Uncle Sam and John Bull. Existing
relations can not be much longer main
tanned between England and Canada
unless England DULLES Canada into
submission to English tariff ideas. To
this, tho came bull-headedness which
cbaracterizes all Englishmen. will be

ton. Then the split will come. That
the United States will be drawn into
this quarrel whether it will or not is
almost beyond doubt; both parties viii
accuse rs, and both will on the incep
ton wage war with US. This Is newt
able, just as inevitable a. annexation

The Poetry Of the Farm.

1t is no advantage to live in the
city where poverty dcgradcs and
failure brings despair. The fields arc
levclier than the paved streets and
the great forests of oaks and elms
are moro poetic than steeples and
chimneys. In the country is the idea
of home. There You sec the rising
and setting sun; you become acquint-
ed with the stars and clouds. The
consultations arc your friends. You
hear The rain on the roof and listen
to the rhythmic signing of the winds.
You are thrilled by the resurrection
called spring, touched and saddencd
by autumn-the grace and poetry OF
death. Every field is a picture, q
landscape; every landscape a poem;
every flower a tender thought and
every forest a fairy land. In the
country you preserve your identity
your personality. There you are an
aggregation of atoms, but in tho city
You are only al atom of an aggrega-
