BRITISH ACTIVITY IN CANADA.
There can be no doubt that the
English government has made a dis
tinct change in its attitude toward
the Dominion of Canada.; For many
j'enrs, says the Globe-Democrat, the
policy was to relax the intimacy of
the ties with the parent country, and
to cultivate the virtue of self-reli-ance
in the group of Canadian prov
inces. But withm a recent period
England has placed a new estimate
on the vast slice of North America
that is under its flag, and is drawing
nearer to it political-, courting its
special demonstrations of loyalty,
favoring it financially, and strength
ening its means of defense. No
longer ago than the ministry Disraeli
the colonies, and not least of all
Canada, were considered a burden,
giving no adequate return for the
care they imposed on the home gov
ernment. All that has passed away
as far as Canada is concerned. At
the recent jubilee the Canadian pre
mier was loaded with titles and deco
rations, and the signs are numerous
that Canada is now much on the
minds of British statesmen. The
status of the dominion has suddenly
risen in importance.
The reasons for this significant
change are not hard to find. Canada
is a vast possession. Its area is
equal to that of the United States,
and it is in the track of the world's
development, running for ages from
east to west. England reads in the
enormous growth of the population
and wealth of this country that the
day is not distant when our lead in
almost every direction will be estab
lished. If the United States could
reach so great a development in a
century, it must seem to England
that Canada, which is adjacent to us,
and also stretches from ocean to
ocean, must have somewhat similar
possibilities. The British Islands
are but dots in the sea. Canada is
half a continent. It is undeveloped,
and therefore unspoiled. England,
stung by the recent effort in Europe
to isolate it, has drawn nearer .the
colonies in order to readjust its posi
tion, and Canada is the chosen fa
Torite of the flock.
But can Canada - be built up into
rivalry of the United States by any
resouces that England can bring to
bear? Experiments in this direction
have hitherto failed. Emigrants
have been assisted to settle in Can
ada, but in a course of time find their
way to this country of better oppor
uities. Since 1870 over . 1,000,000
Canadians have emigrated to the
Tnited States, and . that number is
one-fifth of the present population of
the Dominion. England may spend
large sums on Cauadian internation
al improvements, fortifications and
lines of steamships, only to discover
in the end that the strong currents
running toward this country cannot
be diverted nor divided. When the
English plans for Canada are reduced
to practice they may arouse troub
lesome jealousies. Halifax, fcr in
stance, strongly objects to the choice
t St. John as the terminus of the
new line of fast transatlantic steam
ship. Canada is a peculiar combi
nation of races at best, and the at
tempt to Anglicize it completely in
tirade and feeling can hardly succeed
no matter what gifts and favors are
heaped upon it. The course of 'Eng
land's new policy in Canada will ex
cite interest, and it will also bear
watching.
WORK OF THE RAILROADS.
There are some very interesting
facts shown in the annual repurt of
the Interstate Comineise Commis
sion.
"We have in this country 182,776
miles of railroad, 35,950 locomotives
and 1,297,649 cars in use. There
were 511,772,737 passengers carried
during the year, of whom only 181
were killed, or only one in 2,827,-
474. x
Could figures better illustrate the
extreme safety of railway travel and
the success of invention in overcom
ing danger?
There are 886,260 employees in the
service, and their wages amount to
60 per cent of the entire operating
expense. This means more than half
a million homes made prosperous by
this one industry.
"As for the effect of railway oper
ation in enriching all the rest of the
peop'e, bringing .to their doors the
products of a continent at incoh
siberable cost, and carrying their
grain and meat and manufactures to
the sea on their way to foreign mar
kets all that is a benificence that
cannot be expressed in figures or in
works. It is the crowning glory of
civilization. '
