I v Are-Recalled " Lord Wolesley was more intimately associated with Canada, perhaps, than any other great British general since the days of Wolfe, and Canadians .have always taken the keenest in- ‘terest in his brilliant career“ There "is a common idea that Lord Wolesley was born, so to speak, with a field' marshal's baton in his hand, but the .fact is that he fought his way up- - ward step by step, for he entered the ’British army as an ensign at the age - of 19. His father was a major, but it does not appear that Lord Wolseley had any other advantages to assist his promotion save his natural gifts L as a soldier. He was a veteran of the Crimea and at the Siege of Sebasto- p01 received the Legion of Honor, and . was severely wounded. Later on he ‘ went to China and saw active'service, receiving a medal and two clasps. Shortly after the Chinese ‘War he was appointed Deputy- Quartermaster- ..General in Canada. Training a Canadian Army . "The Trent affair gave scope to his ‘Aremarkabie organizing ability, for it devolved upon him to make the ar- rangements for conveying the British troops overland up the St. John Val- ley to the Riviere du Loup. He car- ried out his difficult duties with much -..success. In 1865 a camp of instruc- tion was formed at La Prairie, and ' Colonel Wolseley was placed in com- ‘ mand of the three battalions. A year winter the Fenian Raid occurred, and 1'!th training that the 2,500 men had received under the British colonel was 'vnoted by‘military critics. When the ‘ 'RedRiver Rebellion bro‘lt-e out in 1870 .there was a demand from all parts rot Canada that Colonel Wolseley... {should be given chafge of the Can- alsdian forces. How successfully he V handled this situation need not be 'dwelt upon, but to show that Wolseley .lhad as high an opinion of the Canadian Similan as the volunteers had of him, '1't is interesting to quote from the Efarewell address he issued to the troops. Canadian Fine Troops “In saying good-bye to you,” he said, “I beg that each and all of you will accept my grateful recognition of :your valuable services, and my best thanks for the zeal you have dis- played in carrying out my orders. I congratulate you upon the success of our expedition, which has secured to this country a peaceabie solution of -its late troubles. The credit for this :success is due to the gallant soldiers Li had at my back; upon you fell the labor of carrying the boats and heavy loads, a labor in which officers and men vied with each other as to who should do the most. Nothing but that pluck for which British soldiers, whether born in the colonies or the wMother Country, are celebrated, could have carried you so successfully ~ through the arduous advance upon this place. You had .to carry upon your backs a west amount of supplies over no fewer than 4,? portagee. making a total distance of seven miles, a feat unparalleled in am- mllitary annals. I can say without flattery that, though I have served with many armies in the field, .‘I have never associated with :9. better set of men." :From Victory Unto Victory On his way home Colonel Wolseley was tendered a great reception at Montreal,'his time not permitting him ‘ 8.9 receive a greeting at Toronto as v (thecitlzens had planned. Shortly after = -returning to England he was sent in demand of the Ashantee campaign, and received the submission of the king at Coomassle. For these ser~ rvioes be was voted the thanks of Pan- liament. the sum of $25,000, and created a KQB. As Sir Garnet W01. seley he was commander of the Egyp- tian expedition in 1882, which ended in the defeat of Arabi Pasha at Tel- el~Kebir. He conducted the operations for the relief of Gordon and Khan- toum, and on this occasion sent to Canada for s. company at voyageurs, who were of great service to the Nile expedition. and received the public thinks of be commanding general be- fore PM home. 10rd Wolseley S was a. great soldier, and trim Roberts and Kitchener, was one of the three greatest British generals since Wei. lbifon- ’ _ -.-....â€"' .__;....... .. ... 1 "tannins, potatoes ?

Lack of co-operation in pro- duction and. marketing has next to be considered. The European countries which have developed the fastest are those which, have‘given most atten: tion to this matter. Combines ,dil mergers, of undoubted value un or certain circumstances, are retarding progress by being abused. The same may be said of the increased demand as necessities for those things which a few years ago were considered as luxuries by the bulk of our citizenship. Nor may we overlook the waste of War and the drain on the whole world caused by standing armies and their consequent drain on the resources of all countries. But after all, we come to the question of supply and demand.
