All of theie are possibilition,--some of them likely to come to fruition in the near future, and all of them adding to the growth and prosperity of the community, It must not be forgotten that the develop- ment of Oshawa's harbor has only been started, and that the event of yesterday is only the end of the initial phase of that de- velopment, The plans of the department of public works, calling for a great enlargement of the harbor basin, for the bullding of wharfage space, and the erection of other - facilities for steamer accommodation, extend far beyond the confines of the present har hor. And they only awalt the proof that the further plans are justified by the city's needs to be put into reality, ' This means that the Oshdwa harbor must be used before it can be extended any furs ther, It is not likely that the local indus. tries will miss the opportunities of cheap transportation provided for them. And so long as there is an evidence on their part of doing so, there need be no fear that within & short period of time, the use of Oshawa's harbor will be sufficient to warrant the com. pletion of the whole program, Meanwhile, Oshawa ia proud of ita harbor, and grateful to those public apirited men who, in 'past years, have labored unceasingly to make thelr dreams come true, And may it not be too long before the further dreams of a harbor surrounded by busy industries and teeming With water-hound traffic will also come true, raising Oshawa to the status of one of the most important porta along the shores of the Great Lakes, A SPORTING SPIRIT ~The sporting spirit of the city of Oshawa, 'which has spread its name across the con. tinent aa the home of athletic teams whose play ls distinguished by its sportsmanship od oleanlinens an well an by its effectiveness, 'wan doubly evidenced once more when three ; d people gathered at the lakefront to wateh the culmination of a race for the ~ isnnur of 'opening the city's new harbour, The dramatic nature of the event caught at the imaginations of the people of this city, T'wo steamers, owned and operated by rival companies, cleaving the waters of Lake On. tario before thelr bows as they sped from opposite directions, with Oshawa as their common destination, and the focal point of their travels, Significant of the sportsmanlike attitude of Oshawa was the fact that the crowd which greeted the westbound Ashbay, the second ship to arrive, was little Af any smaller than that which was present to cheer the skipper of the City of Kingston, the winner of the race by a margin of nearly four hours, And Yinally, one more bit of evidence was adduced in favour of Oshawa's sportsman. ship, when it became known that the cargoes waiting for the two vessels almost exactly balanced each other, both in tonnage and in value, The City of Kingston carried with her when she pulled out of Oshawa shortly after eight p.m, Oshawa freight exactly equal to that borne by the Ashbay when she set sail in the opposite direction at midnight. Being the loser of the race made no difference for the shippers of Oshawa recognized the effort of the Ashbay, and gave it due reward, * HOW THE UNEMPLOYED WOULD VOTE Were the hundreds of men now out of em. ployment In Oshawa In a position to vote as ratepayers, there would be no question as to the passing of the bylaws providing for the groction of clvie administration offices and a new police station, Theme men, naturally, are deeply Interested In unything which will pro- vide employment, even in a limited sense, and would be strongly favorable to having the erection of these buildings started as soon as possible, Unfortunately, not a large percentage of these men will be able to vote on the ques. tions, since only ratepayers will be consulted on this question, But these unemployed men will be looking to the ratepayers on August 28 to vote In such a way us to show that there Is a desire on the part of those in bet. ter circumstances to do what they ean to pro- vide the work that Is so much needed In the city, It can be taken for granted, of course, that the city counell will insist on the use of local labor in erecting these buildings, should the bylaws be carried, and since labor will be a large factor in the two projects, they will provide many families with the means of sustenance during the period of construction, That Is u phase of the bylaws which should be given very careful consideration, so that it shall not be sald of the ratepayers of Osh. awa that they rejected a means of providing work for thelr less fortunate fellows who are out of employment, A BAD BTATE OF AFFAIRS Tho goneral manager of the Toronto Board of Trade has just returned {rom a trip to Great Britain, While there, he made it his business to inquire Into the marketing of Canadian products In Great Britain, and the results of hia inquiries were not very gratfy- ing. . "What did we ind?" he says. "Cana- dian products conaplcuous by their ab- sence, We found Danish bacon, New Jorsey lard, Californian and Kuropean canned goods, American lawn mowers, Czecho-Slovakian glassware, Australian and Now Zoaland fresh fruits, English hot-house fruits, such as peaches and grapos, selling at what, to us, were ex- orbitant prices, We realized, of course, that we were in England too early for the Canadian fresh fruits, but, in spite of this, the prominence given in window displays to foreign products and to win- dow cards advertising foreign goods to the exclusion of Canadian products made one wonder If the Canadian exporters were alive to thelr opportunities for trad. ing in England." With the political side of the British trade guention disposed of, it is now possible to dis. cuss this matter dispassionately, and to sug. gost that it is imperative that a tremendous offort must be made to regain for Canada a larger share of the British market for Cana- dian products, Britain forms the greatest market available for Canadian foodstuffs, and it is a reflection on this country that they should be crowded out of the British market, There in something radically wrong when this is the case, and it should be made the first duty of the government that is coming Into power in the next few days to find out what is wrong, and initiate some steps to cor rect it, Canada should have a large place in the markets of Great Britain, and surely this country, with its great production of food-stuffs, should be able to compete with any other country in the world. in shipping ita products to the British market.
