Fight For British Idealism--Harold Begbie Sums Up Situation--Prefer- | ential Tariff Is Futile, He Says-- | Defeat American Spirit -- Should | Send Ships to Canada--Helps to Bind the Empire. Writing in The London Daily Chron- | icle, under the heading "Can We Keep | Canada British?" Harold Begbie, the | well-known journalist, says i There are three main ways whereby those of us in Great Britain and those | of us in Canada who love and rever- | ence the great traditions of our race-- "we few, we happy few. we band of brothers" may fight for British ideal- | ism in the Dominion against the com- mercial realism of America The first way is that whereon both | Governments are now happily setting | their feet, the quickening of communi- cation between the two countries. It is not a stroke of sentiment, but a | stroke of business. It will bring our! minds into closer relation. A prefer- | ential tariff, on the other hand, is both | dangerous and futile. The present re- | duction on their tariffs by the Cana- | dian Government has already injured | the one industry really affected by it, the woollen trade, and that industry is full of bitterness and complaint. British Character In Canada. The second way in which Canada | may be penetrated and pervaded by the influence of British character is | in keeping with the first. It profits | us but httle to swell the hosts of Scandinavians, Germans and Italians in the Dominion with the unhappy Irish or the poor of our slums, who | aurse in their bosoms neither the tra- | ditions of Great Britain nor affection for her high principles. Here lot it | be. seen, if only in a parenthesis, that the true patriot is he who works for a happy and a proud population in the Mother Country, to see, mixed with the foreign element in our colonies, the | most devoted, affectionate and forgible of his fellow-countrymen. To this end one could wish emigration removed | from charitable agencies and accepted | with pride and honor by the privi- | leged classes of the community Arisotracy, if its "Imperialism is | sincere, would rejoice to hear so great | a call. * The younger son who now yawns in a barrack square or wastes the day with bridge in a London club, | should rejoice and find a new man- | hood in a task so precious to his couns | try It revives the"spirit of adven- | ture, it brings back the spacious times | of the great Elizabeth Nothing is wanting to set up in Canada a British nobility and a British democracy but leaders inspired with the faith of | their fathers. Canada as a Pleasure Ground. In the same fashion something might be done by our literate classes | if their travels took them occasionally | to this great and beautiful Dominion of which they profess themselves to be so proud. A social mingling of the | two peoples would work for confidence | and for maintenance of the old ideals. | It is not as if patriotism bade them | go forth into the wilds and command- { ed them to face horrors and privation | for the love of country. Canada is a | region of delight Nothing, it may be remarked, was | more. injurious to the interests of the | British spirit in Canada than the 're- | moval of the fleet from Victoria. Strat- | egically, Sir John Fisher is right, so- eiologically he is wrong. The presence | in {Canada of officers and man of the | British navy made for loyalty and | kept fresh the feeling of kinship. To restore the fleet; and to recruit it 1 from Canada, would be a telling stroke | in diplomacy > The third way concerns the news- | papers of Canada, and what I now state is the earnest desire of every | newspaper owner and every creditable | journalist in Canada with whom I was | brought into contact. At present Can- | ada receives her news from the Unit- | od States Intentionally or uninten- | tionally the service does net make for the eredit of Great Britain. The true | England---with its kindness, its happi- | ness, and its contented domesticity is not reflected in the Canadian news. | papers. The wildest utterances of the | least wise of our politicians are set | forth as thé very voice of England. | The denunciation of plutoeratic so- | ciety by demagogic priests and hy- sterical novelists are exhibited as if | they were the authoritative satire of a | Juvenal castigating a whole nation. | Influence of the Press. The degenerate and stupid silly | season sensations of our vallow preas | are treated with the respect a sociol- ogist would show for some fundament- | al and far-reaching trait in the na- tional character. We are exhibited to | the readers of Canadian newspapers us a corrupt and faithless people, giv- | er over to voluptuousness or valetu- dinarianism, eareless of Empire, care less of God, and drifting towards So- clalism, athiesm and destruction. To put an end to this sorry travesty it is necessary that a news serview should be established between Eng. land and Canada. That same spirit of judgment, common-sense, and truth which animates our respectable nawspapers should animate this Im- perfal cable. The work of our men of meience, the utterances of our statesmen; the feats of our dthletes, the conquests of our merchants and proeonsuls, the chivalry of our so cial workers, and the ness, sweets ness and purity of our housenald laws, should find a place in this daily letter froin London to our brothers in a far country. The suggestion is not a sen. timental idea which would need a sub. sidy for its maintenance, it is a com. mercial idea, carrying profit to those who iindertake it. a rf ---------------- !

Immorality There, Says Sergt, MacMiilan. A return recently presented in the House of Commons gives the corre- spondence with the Government rala- tive to the question of dance halls, gambling and immorality in the Yu- kon since 1900. The correspondence, most of which has already been made public, concludes with a striking re- port under date of Dec. 7 last to the Minister of the Interior from Commis- sioner Henderson, reviewing the .con- ditions now prevailing in Dawson and No Open | in the Yukon genérally. Commissioner Henderson notes that on his arrival in the Yukon to assume office last spring he found two dance halls in There was some di- versity of opinion as to whether these were a menace to public morals or He personally was of the | el, and after careful investigation the Territorial Council passed an act mak- ing the sale of liguor in dance halls illegal. As a result one of the dance halls went out of business, and in the other one no liquor is being sold now and no complaints are being received concerning +t: "I informed Rev. Dr. Pringle," says the commissioner, "that I felt it my duty to investigate any complaint he might make respecting the infraction of the liquor laws or any laws enact. ed for the suppression of vice or im- morality." He concludes his report as follows: | "Generally I am of opinion that the standard of morality is as high in Dawson as in any other town of the Dominion. From my observations I am quite at a loss to understand the necessity for comments such as have recently been made to the effect that there is greater immorality in the Yu- on than elsewhere in Canada. The conditions now are better than at any other time in the history of the city, and T am greatly surprised to learn that this fact is not 'recognized by those who give publicity %o statements regarding immorality in the Terris ory.™ Reports from Commissioner Z. T. Wood, commanding the Royal North: west Mounted Police in the Territory, and from Bergt. A. MacMillan, in charge the Dawson station of the RN.W.MP, bear out Commissioner Henderson's conclusions. Commis. sioner Wood says --"No complaints have been made to me regarding im- morality in Yukon for months past In fact, the view expressed on all sides iz that Dawson is far too straight-laced and that the police are rather too strict than otherwise." Woman Braves Wilderness. ; Mrs. Beech, the first white woman to traverse the country between Fort | Churchill and Norway House, via York Factory, and Wm. Beech and Carl Beech, the. first white men to bring dogs from Fort Churchill to Winni over the same route, over 41,100 miles through the wildereness, arrived in Winnipeg recently, after a most unique trip, which was franght with no little trouble and hardship.

Despite the clumsy appearancé 'of the animal, it is ex- tremely active, and knows full well the power of the weapons with whieh nature has endowed it.

He missed his mark, fell into the water, and the plucky girls (their name was Cameron) hammered the life out of him with an oar and a paddle As for a buck making short work of a lynx that has once got a grip. that is all nonsense.

OUR ADVANTAGE AT THE FALLS American Falls Six Feet Higher Than Canadian. Referring in its current issue to the fact that the Canadian Government is being urged to co-operate with the United States in restricting the with- drawal of water from Niagara Falls, 'Applied Science, the new monthly of "Varsity's science faculty, says: -- "At first sight the scheme to the average Oamadian looks quite just The United States Government says: 'We have: restricted the use of this water for power purposes in order to preserve the Falls for future genera- tions. It is a heritage which has been handed to ws, and we ought to pass it on unimpaired.' "But when you find the American Government more than willing to meet the Canadian Government half way it is wise to go slowly. The truth of the matter is this: The American Falls is about six feet higher in efa- ! vation than the Horseshoe Falls, and only a very small proportion of the flow of Niagara River passes over it Any further development on the Am- erican side will be at the expense of the Water passing over that fall, and will mean a great impairing of its beauty "On the other hand, as the bulk of water passes over the Horseshoe or Canadian Falls, considerable develop- ment can still be done there. without in any way affecting the scenie beauty of either fall, for the water taken at the Canadian side of the river cannot possibly have any effect on the Am- erican Fall, "If, then, the Government of Can- ada places a restrietion on the devel- opment, it will mean giving up the tremendous advantage which the Can- adian side of the river has by virtue of its location over the American side, which, as has been shown, is at its limit with respect to development of power without materially injuring the American Fall "No doubt legislation will soon be introduced, into the House of Com- mons bearing on this point, and we as Canadians should see that we do not give up this great natural advantage at the request of the nation to the south of us. While it would be a mis. take to issue wholesale charters for power development purposes, still with reasonable care a great amount of the water at present flowing over the Can- adian Fall can_be used to perform useful work, and the natural beauties of the Falls at the same time be pre- served." Didn't Like Indians. ; In the west some twenty years ago, there lived a good wan who gave up part of his time to teaching the Jndi- ans the Christian faith. On one of his trips he stopped at the ranch of a well-to-do and very religious Swede, and requested a night's lodging The Swede thought a great deal of the missionary, and disliked to offend him; but he also disliked extremely having a pack of dirty, greasy In- dians hanging about his place, so, after much hemming and hawing, he stated his objections "But these Indians are Christians, my good brother; and if you ean't abide with them for & single night here on earth, how do vou expect to dwell in heaven with them through all eternity?" inquired the indignant missionary. he Swede was perplexed; but, after thoughtfully scratching his head a moment, he said, "The Bibla says that in my Pather's house are many mansions. an' I tink I haf a separate house."
