Now if Turkey would also cede her last remaining thread of authority over Egypt, Britain could afford to be the friend of “the unspeakable Turk,” as Gladstone styled the Ottoman government. WHEN BORDEN WAS RIGHT On July 1, 1909, Premier Borden (then leader of the Op- position spoke before’ the Jonstitutional Club in London, England. The Times reported him as follows: He was aware that some feeling had _ been created in the’ British Isles owing to the fact that Ganada did not by any resolution or by speech from the Prime Minister vouchsafe the offer of one, two or three Dread- noughts. He thought the re- solution in the form in which it had passed, while its terms might not upon the surface Friday, May 30, 1913. seem as significant at the moment as the offer of one or two Dreadnoughts would have been, laid down a permanent policy for the Dominion of Canada’ upon which both par- ties united, and which would serve a more. practical pur- pose than any such offer of Dreadnoughts. The effect of the resolutions which were passed were:— (1) That they recognized the duty of Canada to take her share in Imperial defence as her wealth and importance in- creased. (2) That the payment of re- gular and periodical contribu- tions to the Imperial treasury was not, as far as Canada was concerned, the most satisfac- tory solution of the problem of Imperial defence. (3) That the House approv- ed of any expenditure neces- sary for the speedy establish- ment of a Canadian navy in close relation to and in co- operation with the Imperial navy, and along the lines sug- gested by the Admiralty at the last Imperial Conference, and (4) That the Canadian peo- ple were prepared to make any sacrifices necessary for the purpose of co-operating with the Imperial navy in maintain- ing the integrity of the Em- pire and its naval supremacy. days. quick.

The specific work of the com- missioners will consist of report- ing on an agreement entered into between Premier McBride and J A. J. McKenna when the latter was in this province During Mr. MeKenna’s visit he interviewed the Indians and was met at Prince Rupert by repre- sentatives of the Haida nation. They claimed that the appropria- tion of reserves made to them covered but five acres to each individual Indian, while other natives received hundreds of acres individually. With a re- vised appropriation the Massets and Skidegates would receive additional land. The claim made by the Haidas that they were brought to two central reserves to be Chris- tianized and educated, and it was through no fault of theirs that the old settlements are in a state of decay, They proudly point to the two grand reserves on which they reside and ask where any other settlements, containing the last year. is Daily News same population, have shown DOMINION AND PROVINCIAL the | veniences, and are fishermen who} investi-|can always the Indians claim, taken from | ure when they meet the commis-| them by either conquest or treaty.| Sioners.
