Canada for the Canadians" is the
cry that is ringing from one end Of
Canada to the other, and that is voiced
oy the industrial press of the Dominion.
At a recent banquet to the Canadian
Manufacturers Association in Brant-
ford there was very pronounced SEN
r5iment in favor of repeating the pref
arential tariff with Great Britain and
strengthening all the other weak spots
In the protective wall Free trade has
few advocates in Canada; and Indus
srial Canada speaks of ''the dead agita-
zion in favor of reciprocity with the
United States and publishes various
articles which indicate that whatever
IS left of the agitation is confined to
sire cheaper farm machinery and imple-
ments and who covet the great Ameri-
can market. One of the speakers at
rhis banquet said: Canada could now
stand alone, and policy should be
adopted in Canadian interests, regard
less of Great Britain and the United
States" The following poem, by one
of Canada's fair daughters, gave me-
.lodious expression to the prevailing
sentiment:
"MADE IN CANADA"
What is the creed and the calling that we of
the North uphold
1t is never the cry for power, it is never
the greed of gold,
Lot the East and South and West contend
like wolves for mavericks bone,
But Canada for the Canadians is the creed
that we call our own.
Good wines are at Kaiser Wilhelm's, good
cakes are at Uncle Sans.
And in dear old Britain's larders are the
best of plums and jams,
But beef and bread and blanket, a pipe, a
mug and fire,
Are the things that we have in CANADA
what more can man desire?
We don't need the marts Of Europe, nor the
trade of. the Eastern Isles.
We don't need the Yankees corn and
wine, nor the Asiatic's smiles;
For what so good as our homemade cloth,
and under the wide blue dome
Will you tell me where you have tasted
bread like the bread that is baked at
home?
And we are the young and strong, and who
so fit for the fight as WEI?
With our hands Of steel and our iron heel
and our hearts like the oaken tree,
For we are homemade, home-fed, the PRIDE
of princely land,
And the things that are made in Canada
arethe things that her sons demand
So this is the creed and the calling that we
of the North uphold,
1t is never the cry for power, 1t is never
the greed of gold.
Let the East and South and west c0nseno
like wolves for mavericks bone.
But Canada for the Canadians Is tine Greco
that we call our own.

the elimination Of an investigation
that has been In progress at intervals
since his sudden resignation from Of
dee last spring. A number OF matters
Affecting his administration have been
probed into, one Of the first results OF
which was the cancellation OF S,O46
promotions that had been passed on
by him to take effect at post Offices
throughout the country during the
present fiscal year. Subsequently
other matters were taken up by the
investigating officials. The case on
which the present action Of the grand
Jury Is based, 1t is said, is a more re-
cent development. The inspectors
have worked continuously on the in
vestigation and 1t is said that 1t was
only within the past two or three days
that the evidence finally was secured
that furnished a basis for action by
the federal grand jury. Chief Post

spicuously In obtaining the evidence
placed in possession Of the district at
torney at Brooklyn.
The authorities are now searching
for Mr.. Beavers to place him under ar
rest. His present whereabouts is UNI
known. The postal officials were cha
Rrined to learn Of the publicity OF the
action Of the grand jury in advance o.
the serving Of the warrant. They re

ground that the time was not yet rip
