This also is another example of mutual goodwill' as well as a sensible course to follow in promoting security. It's a far crv, hack to the days of 1862, when Britain and the United States were on the verge of hostilities, with Canada as a potential battle ground. War between the States was raging. There was undoubted sympathy, in the British Isles, for the Confederacy. Refugee slaves had for years been finding their freedom in the Dominion, and it was there that prominent Confederates had conferred. The S.S. Trent brought affairs to a crisis and British troops were ordered to Halifax. Diplomacy and forbearance prevailed, but the feeling of apprehension in Canada, as the Civil War continued, did not become any the less. The military might of .Washington had impressed the world. Was there ' any certainty that the power of the Union armies might not reveal itself in the vast northwest presumably part of Canada, but still unsettled, and to IRISH WOULD .

Canada looked to Britain for defence, and to the United States for trade. Reciprocity had ended. There were no cities of any size. There were racial difficulties, and in politics, no small degree of distrust. In short, the general outlook was not encouraging. Had it been possible to read the future, back in the sixties, acceptance of what it held would have surpassed fondest dreams. Canada's citizens could have hardly foreseen a land that today, in some respects is the envy of many other nations. CUTTING APRON STRINGS IT IS EVIDENTLY the intention, as disclosed in I th Speech from the Throne, to make changes in the ''constitution which will remove the faintest suggestion of Canada still being a colony. While it can hardly be said the expression "colony" affords just grounds for resentment, it is equally true that when what, once was actually a colony, has grown and developed in importance to the point where it merits another designation, that fact should be rec- ognized without delay.
