A FEDERATED EMPIRE.
Mr.. Chamb G rlain's Proposition at the
COrdwainers' Banquet.

LONDON, July 8.-Mr. Chamberlain
toasting THE British Empire" at the
Cordwainers Company banquet tonight
said the jubilee displays of the army and
navy were a guarantee to the colonies that
Great Britain would spend her all in their
defense If by no other tie. he continued,
the colonies were bound to Great Britain
by gratitude for having accorded them
free government. He pointed out the deli
cacy and fragility of the links binding the
colonies to England and added In their
interests everything is being done to bind
the colonies to that of England unto which
they belong; and we hope soon to witness
the federation of Australasia, which, of ne
cessity, must be followed by the fedora
ton of the South African colonies, which
in turn would lead to federation of the
British empire"
Mr. Chamberlain, continuing, said: Il
believe, however, that 1 express the feel
ings of those we'll qualified to represent the
self-governing colonies when L say they
are of the opinion that any change in the
political relations between England and her
colonies would be a matter OF such vast
Importance and compleXity and involve
such great constitutional changes that 1t
ought at all times to be approached with
delicacy and reserve. 1t would be retard-
ed rather than FASTENED by any attempt
to press 1t 10 a premature COuCIuSlOL we
hope that the colonists will take back this
message from the bottom of all English
hearts: We are prepared at any sacrifice
to maintain intact their interests and honor
and our own and believe that unity of en-
pire is the best guarantee of integrity of
empire .
Sir Wilfrid Laurier, of Canada, replying,
said: Mr. Chamberlain has opened up the
subject which, more than any other, is
engaging the attention of the empire. 1t
is of a character that must demand the at
/ tention of all thinking men. One thing is
certain. The colonies should either draw
more closely together in the empire, or
should separate. The decision, the choice,
does not lie altogether in the mouths of the
colonies but rather in the mouths of the
people of the mother land. When Canada
has her strength nothing else VIII satlSIy
her but imperial representation. IL TINS
thought be a dream, then 1t is a dream that
should appeal to all men and especially TO
all women.
