Sir (eorge E. Voter, IC, 0. M. G., M. l', Minister of trade and Commerce, ex p.eesed in the concise and vigorous English which characterizes the work of that gentlemen. It deals with 'a subject of growing interest to all Ubu- adians and.eie copy should lie on the desk of every merchant and producer in Canada and should reach the hands .if all who desire a, concise and pictur- esque statement of the corning trade of China a,n1 Japan and of the future and perhaps deeleive importance of these countries more particularly us regards the Western portion of Canada. Sir George ease: - Upwards of 500,000,000 people in habit China and Japan in a vaet stretch of island and continent fac- ing our Western front door, Be- tween lies a facile ocean now begin- ning to quiver beneath the -swift keels of rapidly increasing mercan- tile fleets On all grounds of enlightened business policy Canada and Oa*adians cannot afford to nes giet the great and promising field which lies so advantageously oppos- ite our Western gateways and which the Panama Canal has brought so much nearer our Eastern ports."

VI 'estervelt, Jr. Principal iflChal tore Pai AM �cclou tart The report is written by Mr. R. Grigg, Commissioner of Commerce, and is preceded by a letter of trans- mission giving an outline of its con- tents describing his journey, and con- cluding with reflections of the charac- ter and weight to which we have be- come accustomed by hie previous work. The first chapter deals with the posssible effect of the Panama Ca- nal and provides remarkable figures with regard to the development of tragic across the isthmus by the Pa- nama and Tehauutopec Railways. A table follows showing Canadian ex- ports to China and with comments up- on the character and volume of such exporte. While the report recognizes the probable development of trade in a multitude of articles which follow the establishment of a trade route, and increase of communication, itis shown that the more immediate interest to Canada is found in the export of flour and lumber to the Orient, The chap- ter dealing with the first of these pro- ducts indicates the present production of flour iu the Western provinces; a table is given showing the exports of fldur from the United States to the Orient for the past twenty-one years and instructive comments ripen the principal figures. An interesting par- •rgraph'• deals with the movement Northward of the flour export upon the Pacific coast and the reasons which account for this movement, A full ar- gument is produced based upon the the production of wheat and flour in c empeting countries, more particularly Manchuria, and remarkable informa- tion is afforded regarding the produc- tivity of a soil subject to irrigation and unlimited labour under ahot sun. The results are truly extraordinary and will be a revelation to many read- ers. Important reference is made to the the export of lumber from B. C. and the final chapters deal with valuable work being done by the 0.n - eels of all nations and also a reference to the question of Chinese students and the native press. In addition to its economic value the report provides interesting reading and amply justifies the condemnation of Sir George Fos- ter. The report upon Japan, which is printed in the same booklet and follows that upon China, is equally interest- ing although different conditions have resulted in totally different reports. Nothing is more remarkable than the contrast between the two countries. Whereas few figures are available with regard to China a contrary con- dition prevails in Japan and interprets• tion ofeconomic condition of the country is largely expressed by tables ,If figures, but the full and interesting ,:olnment upon them removes the work from the "dry as dust" charac- ter which so commonly marks such pa- pers. Canadians may sometimes for- get that the phenomena due to the wonderful development of their own country does not exhaust the im- portant problems in course of solution elsewhere and it is highly desirable that development likely to provide a s.+bjeet of engroseing future interest t I Canada should be presented in brief r and brafllc terms and handled in the masterful fashion found in this repor, It is not given to any man to do more than suggest a possible outcome of the factors in operation, and Canada has som : ezpesience of the foreigner who spends three weeks in a country and thee writes a book, In China this is described as "seeing China through a porthole;" but a characteristic of the report under review is th moderation of its expressions and the deference 'own to the experience of the compe- tentauthoritier. It is impossible in a short article to do more than suggest tht excellence of the work and advise that application should be made ' to the Department of Trade and Com- merce for a -copy which will be provi- ded Without charge. The Weekly Re- port of that Department, also distri- bated without charge, should have an increase of its already large circula- tion if only because it t eflects in an ad, equate manner economic conditions in foreign countries and is designed to assist Cankdian exporte. The experf- enee of the united States illustrates the enormous value of stroll work, and the Canadian public should not omit to encourage the efforts being glade abroad for their advantage and paid for with their money. enewerammeeesnees COL.

Parliament will be called to Meet in special session and from twenty to thirty thousand men will be enrolled, fortxied into regiments and sent across the Atlantic to serve with E. glend'M army in Europe. The Canrsdiau head- quarter'e staff has plans prepared fur moblizetion, and calculate that ten ba- tallione, each of a thousand men, can be raised, armed and put on transports within two weeks, Hon. Col, Hughes states that Canada will be able to forward 25,000 armed and trained men within two weeks, Canada has au active militia enroll- ment of 80,000 men and a reserve of half a million men, who have bad mi- litia training. No difficulty is antici- pated in obtaining 25,000 volunteers for service abroad, The first Canadian contingent of 20,.- 000 men will probably be commanded by Col. Hughes the minister of militia, who had considerable experience on ac- tive service in South Africa, where Canada sent 8,000 men to the aid of British arms against the Boers. Colonel Hughes left for Brace - bridge to 'address a political meeting, He will return to Ottawa again im- mediately. Premier Borden is also ex- pected toout short his holiday and re- turn to the capital that he may be in close touch with British Oovernmeut dining title anxious time. It is understood that the defense of Canadian cities against the attacks of raiding cruisers has been considered and that while Helder is soneidered impregnable, the lack c.f defenses at Quebec and St. John occasions anxiety,. Is is understood that the St, Lawrence and B.y of Ei'unday ports will he mina d should England become involved. S:'eps will also be taken to put' tht cruiser Niobe into c;nrnrniosion for set - vice. The boat is now tied up at Hall fax, without a crew. While it would he difficult at this juncture to obtain trained men to man the guns on the cruiser, there would be no difficulty 'n get; ing men to run her as a scouting vessel. The Niobe will be pufinto dry dock at Halifax and cleaned by way of preparation. It is reported at Vadcouver that the summer cruise of the D. G. 0. Rain- bow, in Behring Sea has been postpon- ed in view of the threatening war sit- uation. With 300 of the crew on board, composed cheifly of regular ser- vice men from England, and from the crew of the cruiser Niobe, with apa'ty of 50 naval volunteers from Vancouver and Victoria, the Rainbow is now waiting with full steam up, in Esqui- mault hsrbou^. A week ago she was in Vancouver at- tending to the case of the Hindus' steamer, Komagata Maru. CHECK CHRONIC RHEUMATISM NOW RHEUMA. Thoroughly Drives out Deep -Seated Uric Acid Poison.
