sottlors of Oregon , but uow living In British
Columbia, and n member of tho Provluclal
Parliament, hns written n lotlcr to tho Colo
nist on tho Canadian Fnclilo Railway, at tho
conclusion of which ho makes tho following
Judicious remarks on tho unification of tho
British Empire:
Thoro Is much or doop interest to us nil
In Colomb's pnmnhlot. It Is circulating In
Victoria nnd should, by such as feol Inter
ested In fedoratlon of tho Kmplro, bo care
fully read and pondered ovor. This Pan
Brltnnulc unification, tho dying desire ortho
groat Chatham, tho sontfmont for which
uultod empire Americans a contury ago
sacrificed homo and kindred, this noblo as
piration Is now becoming moro doonly felt,
and Its realization moro longod for by English-speaking
peoplo nt homo and abroad.
It Is for tuo United Klngdcm nnd tho
Dominion to tako tho Initiative, The Aus
tralian colon los will soon Join In and
Colomb's most sonslblo and pressing warn
ings will bo carried out In their entirety
while yet thero Is time. Knllghtenod Amer
icans or the United States, well aware that
they already have enough of social and
political problems to work out, look with
favor on this British federation movement,
knowing that Britons arelhelrownoo-work-efta-itU
Into' tetods to the upraltlna of
humanity; and that each of the great kindred
Anglo-Saxon nationalities learning, one from
tho other what to Imitate and what to avoid,
may thus "strive together In well doing."
EUhu Uurrltt, tbo well known loarned and
philanthropic New Englander, has In the
Canadian Monthly for Auoust last an nrtlclo
on tho "Integration or tho British Empire"
that doos hlui Infinite credit. Thero is moro
pith In this short essay than In Sir Francis
Htnoks'recont lukewarm doallng with tho
groat subject In the same periodical; or than
In tones ofablo and woll-meanlng Goldwln
Smith's Jeremiads about disintegration In
