Mr.. Toronto tloDe notes with
satisfaction that a revival OF
n interest in Canadian afrairs
is disccrnible in the United
States. Recently Bradstreets devoted
a special issue to a comprehensive re-
view of the financial, commercial and
industrial development Of the Domin-
ion during the Past few years. and
simultaneously there appeared in tho
Sprin nGiied Republican the beginning OF
a series of articles of similar nature,
embodyns the observations of train
ed observer on tour of Canada.
From these two publications it ap-
pears that Canadian exports in a little
more than two decades have nearly
trebled. In 1895 Canada sold to Great
Britain goods worth less than 5000
600; in 1899 she sold over SlG0, 900 000
worth Canada has increased her to-
tai foreign trade by nearly 5000, 900 O0O
in ten years. Ii is also shown that the
increase in exports is not confined to
natural products. The export of manu-
factpres Increased from $500, 600 in
1898 to SIS, 00O in 1902. During the
year ended June 80, 1907, The aggregate
trade of Canada, taken on basis OF
goods entered for consumption ANA Ca
madam produce exported, was $39S, ,Sll =
0c0, or an increase over 1896 of $l67 ,010.-
600, an Increase per head of population
in, six years of $50, This is said TO en-
ceed the growth shown in a similar
period by any other country. The
growth in the assets and business OF
the chartered banks is also cited as an
evidence of Canadian development.
Two years ago the total paid-up capi-
tai of the Canadian chartered banks
w1s s66, 26i 96i; now it is S70,270 40S, and
arrangements a,e being made for n
still further expansion in the banking
capital of the country,
Referring to the growth of population
in Canada, the Springfield Republican
writer points out that American imml-
grafton into Manitoba and the Cana
dian territories from 1897 10 the end OF
June 1902, was $4,000, and that 1t was
expected To reach 100000 by the end of
June next year. These, the Toronto
Globe thinks are important facts sub
mitted for the consideration of the
American people, and they are accom-
panied by some timely remarks as to
