Rogers P E=;~-ggimh __ Machinery, lloisling Engines, Steam Engines, B_g;g§;fg§_;~g;;_-_\_ The Bahama Islands want to be an-‘ nexed to the Dominion of Canada! The fact seems ‘to be well vouehed for. The Bahama Legislature declar- ed by a vote of 23 to 6 in a full House in favor of joining their poli- tical fortunes with Canada. So far as appears, the Dominion has not sought for the addition of the Baha- ma Islands to its territory nor of these far-off insular peoples to the people of Canada. But the Domin- ion, like a star of the ilrst magni- tude, has sent . its beams star, and attracted the admiring gaze of these tropical people. We do not know Bahama Islands at this distance, ex- fept that they form a part of the far-flung British Empire. The group' of islands is quite numerous, but much about the pointed by the Imperial Government, an' Executive Council of nine mem- bers and a House of Assembly of twenty-nine. This last is the body that has adopted the resolution in favor of 'union with Canada. Further wears told that the chief industry of the people is sponge gathering, but they also raise bananas and cocoa- nuts, and have a fairly well estab- lished hemp industry, and that their sponges and fruits ere chiefly im- ported to the United Stat/es. This, then, is the proposition that is "up" to Canada: Whether or no we want 5 score of little islands, tar of! in the south, peopled ma'nly by colored persons, engaged in th: sponge industry, to have and to hold, to protect in war and govern in time of peace? The sponge indus- mostly small, and located southeast-I erly from Florida and north of Cuba and Hayti. Their total area is but_ 5,450 square miles, or about two audi a half times the area of our own' Province. The population is set, down by Whittaker at 61,277, "most' of them descendants of liberated Af- ricans." These are distributed over ten or twelve of the larger Islands of the group. Nassau, the capital and principal port, has a population- about equal in numbers, but not oth-I erwise, to that of Charlottetown. The Bahamas enjoy representative. institutions under a Governor ap- try is suggestive of absorption. No doubt some of Canada‘s superfluous cash might be absorbed in that quar- ter if it were found desirable to aii- nex the islands. We might also en- joy the luxury of having some g.n- tleman of color to grace our 'House of Commons and Senate, s.nt to us from the new Province. and at least they would not make demands for ice-breaking steamers. Nassau would ahold a winter port. for our new navy and a` station for a_Canadian garri- son. But the proposal is not. in all respects one calculated to arouse Canadian enthusiasm. TRADE Rni..A'i‘IoN Two proposals have emsnated from Washington of late. One is for a large measure of free trade in natu- ral products with Canada, which the Government of Canada has accepted, and the ratification of which is now pending before the Parliaments of the two countries. The other proposal is for a treaty of arbitration bc- tween tbe kindred United States and Great Britain. It is not yet fully formulated, but has been tents.- tively put forward and 'has -been most. favorably received by the press and Parliament of the Mother Coun- try. ln Canada the leaders of one,Poli- tical Party and the organization re- presenting the protected manufactur- ing interests have combined to :epre- sent the trade agreement in the worst possible light, as sinister in its design and ruinousvto Canada. They have tried to make it appear that the chief object of President Taft. and thc American Government is the annexation of Canada and the consequent dismemberment of the British Empire. But what do those excited patriots make of the other proposition for linbernationsl arbi- tration? ls that also__a sinister and treacherous proposal? We do not think that either proposal can fairly _-_-_-_-_-f_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-,-,-_-_~.-_~_-_~.-_-,~.-_-_~_~_-_-.-_-_ at __-_-_-_-:.1-_~::.1':_-_-_-_~:-1‘.1'.1-:-':J-:-:->-:f-‘-- -----A--‘-4-; S AND PEACE. one more so than the other. They are in fact related proposi- tions, put: forward almost concur- rently and designed and calculated in both cases to bring about and perpetuate a friendly accord between the three greater branches of the M1510-Saxon family. The more large- ly two friendly nations engage in mu- tually Droiltable trade with each oth- er, the stronger are the interests that make for peace between them and the greater the obstacles towar. 'In fact the successful negotiations for freer trade hsve` been in large measure the best preparatory for the proposed arbitration treaty, and have helped to bring its cansunima- tion nearer than ever before. Reciprocity and international arbi- tration are in our judgment two noble and closely allied measures, conceived in mutual good will and nurtured in friendliness, whose con- summation is devoutly to be wished because they make for prosperity and permanent peace. It is not these EVEN? UNBSUPEB. but rather the at- tacks upon them that are sinister, incendiary and provocative of strife and ill-will. We confess to 3, sense of mingled pain and disgust in the dia- tribes of the anti-reciprocity press. Trade and treason are not inter- changeable terms; rather are they Y be made to bear much color, nor the contrsries. IMPORTANT MEETING. The attention of members of the! Provincial Temperance Alliance and the friends of temperance and prohi- bition generally is directed to the meeting of the Alliance to be held to- morrow, Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'- clock iii the Y. M. C. A. Hall in this city. There are very important mat- ters to be considered among which are proposals for further amending the Prohibitory Law with B vigw td make it more effective in wo;-king_ The occasion is one calling for as' large and representative a council as can be got together and it is hoped there may be a good attendance from all parts of the Province. Notice of dian last week. We again direct et- tention to it now, believin this meeting appeared in The Guar-‘f Wonderful results continue to be reported fiom the experiments made in England to increase the growth and production of plants by electri- city. With one pole to the acre on s20 acre plot, with connecting wires charged with electricity, the yield of wheat, compared with that of an equal plot not electritled, was in- creased 20 to 40 per cent., and the grain was of superior quality. Other cereal crops -responded equally well to the electrical treatment and straw- berries showed an increase of 36 to 80 per cent. The theory is 'that elec- tricity causes the air to yield up its nitrogen to the plants mom plenti- ully. rous Engine Works of Brantford and ‘ex-Mayor of that city, strongly fav- ors reciprocity and warns his fellow- 'manufacturers that if the present measure is defeated an agitation will spring up for a much wider measure, gwinaii might imperii tba iatiumiai iii- terests of the country. I I These are rather dull times in Par- .liamentn Beyond the discussion on greciprocity and some progress in sup- iply very little business has been done. Petitions, protests and memorials for and against the trade agreement ure pouring in, the majority of those a- gainst it being from manufacturing centres in Ontario, while those in its favor are widely distributed over the Northwest, the rural districts oi Ontario and Quebec. The Maritime Provinces generally, outside of the Opposition newspaper odices appear to regard the agreement with favor. There seems no good reason to il-~ubt that it will be approved liy the maj-_ ority throughout the ‘lomlliiun if it passes the ordeal of the Con-,gross at ,Washington And the danger of full-` ure there arises wholly from pohtieal -complications.
