CANADA STILL UNCERTAIN.
In Regard to the Question of PrefOre
Initial Tariff For the Colonise.
The publication of the official age4.
da for the Golonial Conference gives
special importance to the proposal
that the time had come for Canada
to make some offer to the British
Empire.
The official aenada shows how dee',
sive is the attitude in all other self-
governing colonies. In the Austra-
lian Commonwealth, the Government
which has just returned to power af-
ter the general election re-affirma the'
resolutions of the 1902 conference in
favoreofenrefereetiel trade and adds':
"It is desirable that the United-Kingo
dein grant preferential 'tre'atment to
products and manufactures of the
colonies,"
Reciprocal Privileges. _
The, Cape Colony GovernMent, while
re-affirmingthe resolutions of 1902
and adhering to the principle of
preference for, British manufactures
"desires to impress upon His Majes-
ty G'o'vernment the opinion that the
continuance of such preferential treat-
ment to preclucers and manufacturers
of Britain is largely dependent upon
granting sortie reciprocal privileges to
the British Colonies."
The Goverement of New Zealand,
while also endorsing preference to -
British goods, considers it essential
that Britain concede a preference to
Colonial -'products; which are now tax-
ed...under existing British revenue
tariff.

Canada Second to' None,
Canada alone makes no suggestions,
though, as The Times saYs in editor-
ial: "Whatever form they took, the
ideas of the great community, which
is foremost among the States of the
Empire would be received with later -
est end attention second to none."
It is felt that Canada's position at
the Conference would be greatly
strengthened if she came -into line
with these other Colonialutterances,
by re -affirming by resolution of the,
Dominion Parliament her desire as
was formally expressed by the Cana-
dian Ministers at the 1902 conference
that in.. the interests of Canada and
.the whole Empire, "the Imperial Ginn
erement would accept the principle -of
preferential trade generally and grant
to the food products of Canada ex-
emption in the United Kingdom from.
the duties now levied or _hereafter
imposed."
Other Colonial Governments feel it
neceesary, without in any way inter-
fering -with British politics and speak -
Mg solely in the interests of their
own Colonies and the Empire at large
to re -affirm their attitude- of. 1902. A
re -affirmation ,.by Canada on similar
lines would formiaryalitifir before -this
Confereece the attitude Of the Dorm -

er chiefly resorts for a supply of pulp-

fear that the supply of spruce is not,

A Great Public Asset.
In 'Ontario the 'obstacles factitiously'
interposed. have checked the exporta-
tion of pulpwood to such an extent
that the owners of spruce trees com-
plain of being left at the mercy of the
•locaLonanufacturers of wood pulp. It
may be difficult to ascertain precisely
how these conflicting interests may
. be adjusted ' to each other most ed,
ventageously for the general good, bet
the effort to obtain the necessary in-
formation and to base on it some en-
lightened sort of treatment Of e great
public asset Must be made, and it
cannot be made too soon. The very
,first step it to find out the location
' of our pulpwood reserves, their ex-
tent, the degree of rapidity Of their
grewth, and the best way of alienat-
ing them for profitable and intermin-
able exploitation. Anything like a
policy of reckless destruction will
never again be tolerated in this Pro-

HOW did Canada come to:, be celled
Canada?' Just how Many people could
answer that simple little questiono on
the spur of the moment? Very few,
it is safe to atty. Yet Canada is one
of the most pelted jewels in .the Brit-
ish Crown.
The name of Canada comes from a
Red Indian name, meaning a collec-
tion 'of huts. Rather a funny appel-
lation for a country bigger than Un-
cle Sam's Very own United States !
It is interesting, and even fascinat-
ing, to consider how some of per pos-
sessions came to get, the names which
they bear nowadays. Newfoundland
was the first of all the British col-
onies and its name speaks for itself.
It was not merely the first Briti
colony, but the first bit of the ew

Writing from Detroit. Mich., a cor-
respondent siva: "It is a singular fact
that while the State and Federal Gov-.
ernments each spend tens of thous-
ands of dollars annually pleating fish:
in the Great Lakes, commercial fish-
ermen, whether residents or non-resi-
dents of theostate, pay not a single
dialer in taxes or other fees for the
privilege. of taking fish. If an Amer -
can tug goes over the border and is
caught taking fish in Canadian wat-
ers it is liable to be fired on by the
Canadian revenue cutter, and nets
confiscated. Canadian commercial fish-
ermen, on the other hand, are free
