JOHN BULL. | The Imperial Trade Commission, which will shortly begin} its enquiries, may be able to prove to the British manufacturer| and merchant that their methods of doing business in the Do- minion need revision, and thal even the advantages of the prefer; ential tariff will not suffice to hold trade in Canada if their wares are not adapted to the market. j Recently published figures of Canadian trade during the year ending on March 3ist should startle those who thought that the rejection of the reciprocity agreement all that needed to direct Canada’s foreign trade in east and west lines. Canada’s imports from Britain are less than a third of her im- ports from the United States. The tremendous expansion of Canada’s imports is due for the most part to the fact that we are borrowing freely abroad for large public works. But the startling thing is that while we are getting our loans in Britain the goods that in large measure represent these coming from the United States. Britain gives us money for railway expansion, but the rails and fish plates and spikes and in some degree also the locomotives largely the United States, from Great Britain.

Department of Marine and Fish- eries in pamphlet form. It con- tains an exhaustive review of the whole question of the proposed diversion of 10,000 feet per sec-| md through the canai and illustrated with maps. The principal objections raised| by Canada are given as, first, that that the work was unnosensaeys| that no stage of il was ever sanc- tioned; that Chicago has no rigat to the use of any such quantity of water; that navigation would | suffer, and that the proposed di- version endangers Canadian rights guaranteed under treaty. is} BAD STRIKE LOOMING Building May Cease Ali Over Saskatchewan.
