and hunger. No city in Canada could
endure for q month il it's coal supply
from the United States were cut off
This supply Is not automatic. it is
subject to embargo, A nations first
duty is to itself Ambitious young
Nationalists would do we'll to reflect
upon these things, else they may find
themselves with nation without a
people.
1.-TWO courses are open. We may
content ourselves with such sea bases
as We have and direct our life &C
cordingly. We may endeavor by per-
suasion, or by force, to secure sea
bases from the United States If the
United States had not entered the war
we might conclude that they were sunk
in sloth and would not defend even
their own possessions. At one stroke
they dispelled that illusion. The truth
il, Canada, apart from the maritime
provinces, has no sea base on the At
lantic coast, unless the Hudson's Bay
route is taken seriously; but now that
the money is spent the opinion ex.
pressed upon these pages nine years
ago is generally accepted as correct.
That illusion also is at An end"
Compromise
Sir Andrew goes on to summarize
the history Of international rela-
tions between Canada and the
United States, showing that com
promise and mutual good will had
been used to settle boundary dis
putes when each side had a valid
claim. He describes the conditions
attending the signing Of peace be.
tween England and the United
States at Paris, in 1882. This
treaty, he contends, is of the type
that has become "inapplicable." as
Canada was deemed of little i'm
portance in 1888. Here is mas
ter chance for putting the league OF
nations to the test.
"The new boundary that suggest.
itself is an extension Of the line o.
400 north latitude, which forms the
| boundary further to the west; but thi.
would involve a surrender of more ter
ritory than is actually necessary tx
afford direct outlet to the sea. TIL,
natural line is that followed by tn,
Canadian Pacific Railway between tn,
two points, Megantic in Quebec ant
McAdam in New Brunswick The are,
of Maine is $4,000 square miles, ant
the area north of the Canadian Pacifi,
Railway is estimated at 5000 squar,
miles. But the land is thinly settled
and unsuitable for cultivation, excep

improved; but only onc-sixth Of the
improved land, or less than per cent
of the whole, is under crop other than
hay and forage. The average size Of
the farms is 106 acres, and of these
there are only 10000 in the whole
state.
1.-TWO complementary methods sug
gest themselves:
a. That the matter should be referred
by the American government, after
exhaustive investigation, TO the oc-
cupants of the area concerned with
recommendation that they should elect
to constitute themselves province
OF Canada with all the privileges. Sc
curities and guarantees Of such prov
ince The nature Of these privileges
securities and guarantees would be
fitting subject of public education IT,
convince The people that their nber-
ties would be as we'll conserved under
the proposed arrangement as at pres
ent.
"2. That those objecting to the trans
fer should have their property ex-
propriatcd and equtably paid for out
eff Federal funds. This process is ia
quire private property for public use
can exhaustive survey OF the area
involved, its population, properties and
resources, would be necessary, but
much of this information is easily
available in the census returns. To
enumerate them in detail would be
indicate; it would be like making
an inventory Of another mans prop
erty."
Would We?
Of course, there is the question
Of our willingness to cede this re-
gion, but Sir Andrew believes that,
if the matter were laid before us in
the proper way, we would see the
justice of ceding region presum-
ably of little importance to us and
won as spoil of war" in 1888.
"Will the Americans give back to US
this area which they took from us by
force at time when we were lighting
alone in Europe against tyranny
which was of much the same kind .
The case is now laid before them un-
officially, and by way of suggestion.
If it were reinforced, it is highly prob
able that they would see the wisdom
and honor of handing back to US what
Is of little value to them, but of life
Importance to us. 1t would be q proof
Of mutual forgiveness, a sign to the
world of an alliance and of the new
spirit which has begun to prevail in
all relations between free peoples. Ii
it we're done quickly it would bring
conviction to the old enemies that
there is no further use in contending
against new world"
''The Boston Evening Tran
script" commenting on the plan,
finds that the loss of northern
Maine would not be as negligible to
US as Sir Andrew thinks:
