The Public School teachers of South York in convention assembled at Toronto Junction last Friday passed a resolution unanimously ask- ing the County Council to reconsider at the June session their resolution of January last when the county cam. Cillors ordered the discontinuance of Uniform Promotion Examinations. The teachers gave many reasons why they wished the system wiiiclinhas Eliseo in vogue for years continued. Without here discussing the pros and cons of the system TiiE LIBER.\L has no hesitation in saying that the action of the County Council at the last of the session was hasty, and that teacheis as well as the inspector should have been heard on the ques- tion before the change was ordered. 0111‘ Ottawa Letter. A very interesting feature of the ‘bluo book just brought down from the department of Trade and Commerce is the ropoi t of Lord Strathcona. Can- ada’s High Commissioner in .lii'iglaiiil. which is an exceedineg useful and thorough review of the condition of Canadian trade with the Old Country. Every department of that trade is carefully reviewed and many valuable suggestions, gathered from an intel- -ligent observation of the state of tho market. are given for tho bent-lit of Canadian exporto.i-s..»\s the High (loin- smiSsionor points out. the ofiii-ors originally appointed to develop omi» .yration work. have been largely on» gaged in answering inquiries upon trade matters and other questions which are 03-day groatly interesting; the people of tho Old Country. “ And in consequence.“ adds Lord Stratli- I'ona, “the leading offices have be- come more in the natureofoousular departments. than of emigration agencies. and I venture to think that theyare doing very useful work foi- Canada." Tho tremendous the increase in number of inquiries made by business v houses as to the field for the develop- ment of their various interests in the. Dominion has been one of the features at the year. The British trader may be somewhat consorvativo in his meth- ods, and none too quick in first taking hold and exploiting new territory, but when he does launch out, it is generally to some. purpose, and, as the ‘iiondcn Daily Telegraph remarked the other day, while the full fruits ot‘ the liberal and patriotic policy of tho Laurior Government will not be real- izcd all at once, the ultimate harvest will be the consolidation of the empire with those most enduring of all bonds of connection and union, :1 common loyalty and reciprocity of affection. together with the substantial and tangible return of a vast increase in ‘mutual trade. ‘ THEY ARE FOREIGNERS no LONGER. The following observations of the 'i‘SVinnipeg Free Press present the case so fairly and tersely that tlii-y are worth repeating : “ In Canada it you get an immigrant on the land, ho lie- comes at once .naturalizml and nation- .alized. As the years go by, the fact 'i that he owes his prosperity and his greatly improved condition to British laws and British institutions is brought forceably home to him by readiii r in his patent that he receives tho and ‘from the Crown, and he very quickly grows to feel that he is a Canadian and a member of the British Empire. ‘Any man no matter what his nation- ality, so long as he dt’Sll'ei ‘0 0‘11“ a“ 1 You“; hfficqllfi‘flnâ€"IlliptTied draught stallion, honest living, and is willing to till the soil, is a Welcome addition to this "western country and his arrival is a national blessing." \Vhilo this coinâ€" niont obviously has reference to “foreigners” not speaking the Eng- lish tongue, it is worth bearingin mind that those are only a moderate proportion of the tens of thousands coiiiiiigintothe country. 0f the 31, 702 arrivals in the last completed fiscal yyear 20,727 were from the Old Country or the United States and 1,108 were French or German leaving less than 10,000 “foreigners,” as the term is usodaud understood in this C011!l‘-’C~ tion.
