Lord Haldane ap- parently handed the full text of| his speech to the English jour- nals before he left England, and it was printed extensively and ac- cepted as the more or demic talk of a brilliant student and jurist to an audience of his own profession. Now, however, that they -have begun to regard the speech as a formal pronoun- cement of British policy, British- have begun to question and wondering whether the Brit- ish ministry means to. prepare the way for binding alliances. This is how the speech is being less aca- ers are read-on the continent, but inquiry in authoritative circles shows that the ministry has no_ such intention. There is reason to believe that formal proposals of this kind would encounter a polite ~ rebuff at Washington and would, more- over, provoke, rather than allay, the suspicion of Germany and other European countries, whose journals suspect Lord Haldane’s purpose the further isolation of Germany and the defeat of her naval and commercial! ambitions. Moreover, Britain's binding al- liance with Japan is hardly re- econcilable with an Anglo-Ameri- can compact while’ the Califor- nian immigration difficulty still acute.

The Standard is the only journal which discusses the entirely new situation creat- ed by Lord Haldane’s announce- ment. Every other journal keeps silent. The Standard says: “If the government think to bring about an Anglo-American alliance, they are too sanguine and distinctly premature. After all, Americans and Englishmen understand each other no other people can, and the closer we draw together wilhout a for- mal bond, the better for all of us and the world generally. We can use a freedom in our intercourse that would be perilous else- where and can criticize each other without offence.” as A GREAT OPPORTUNITY What Prince Rupert Fair Means in- Advertising Country. forthcoming agricultural The and industria! exhibition, to take place at Prince Rupert next month, notice of which appears in this issue of the Courier, has a greater significance than many persons would perhaps imagine.
