Book excerpt: Excerpt from Imperial Federation, 1890, Vol. 5: The Journal of the Imperial Federation League Now to turn to the question of Lord John Russell's personal position. He laid down, says B. The lines upon which our Colonial policy proceeded. Let us at once admit that he was largely responsible for the con cession of selfgovernment to Canada and Australia. B. M. Apparently still thinks, as unquestionably many, if not most, of his party thought twenty or thirty years back, that self-government must inevitably lead to separation. Of course we absolutely deny this initial assumption, and with its denial - for B. M. Is certainly not in a position as yet to prove its correctness experimentally - the whole of the superstructure which he endeavours to erect upon it falls to the ground. But let us see what evidence B. M. Can produce that Lord Russell ever held the belief with which he implicitly credits him. The evidence is as follows. Our author shall give it in his own words.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Imperial Federation, Vol. 2: The Journal of the Imperial Federation League; January to December, 1887 Sir 'james anderson has returned to the subject of ocean' cables in a letter-which we publish in another column. Since our last issue' the matter has practi'cally passed the stage of argument, and it is therefore Unnecessary for us to follow it up further. We are glad to hear that a powerful company has been' formed, with a capital of to establish a telegraphic line between the Australasian Colonies and Vancouver. This will spare us the necessity of further allusion to the 'weak places in our communications, which will soon be doubled in strength and efficiency by the possession of an alternative route. Sir James Anderson's letter is interesting, as giving the opinion of an experienced man upon the probable results to our commerce of an outbreak of hostilities with another Power. His suggestion that neutral lines of telegraph would be available opens the field for some nice questions as to the laws of international. Neutrality in time of war. But where' are these neutral lines P If any agreement could be arrived at to neutralise all cables, the case would be different; but there does not seem much prospect of this, and at present there is but one route to Australia. We want to see two, and we shall not be kept waiting long for the event. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In this connection it is significant that the first goods train which passed over the line carried a ship ment of stores sent by the British Government for its naval stations on the Pacific. The Canadians are fully entitled to say, as Mr. Grant does The work is Imperial in mean ing as well as in magnitude, though the cost has been wholly defrayed by Canada. It is our contribution to the organisa tion and defence of the Empire. The effect which the railway will have upon trade remains to be seen. Undoubtedly it will be great and beneficial. Manitobans have great expectations of being able to export directly to Liverpool by Hudson's Bay, and of being thus independent of Chicago and Montreal alike. The British Columbians expect that a portion of the Asiatic trade will come their way, especially as the company that has built the road has announced its intention of putting on steamers to connect the Pacific terminus with the ports of Japan and China. As to the Australian trade, San Francisco is, no doubt, considerably nearer to Sydney than the British Columbian railway terminus; but the larger portion of the miscellaneous merchandise now sent from California to Australia can be just as readily provided in. Canada, while lumber, which is the staple cargo of outward-bound vessels to Australia, can be shipped at a far cheaper rate, and of a better quality, atburrard Inlet than at San Francisco. The advantages of the former port to steamers for coaling purposes can hardly be over-estimated; while the greater speed at which the trans-continental journey will be made over the Canadian line, owing to its lighter grades and better construction, and the unique fact that the entire stretch from sea to sea is under the control of one company, will fully compensate for the greater length of the Pacific sea voyage. Altogether, both Canada. And the Empire have occasion for congratulation on account of the construction Of the Canadian Pacific Railway.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Within the Empire: An Essay on Imperial Federation Five years have elapsed since I read a paper before the Montreal Branch of the Imperial Federation League in Canada entitled, A United Empire. In writing this, and a good many other articles, which have since appeared in the columns of Imperial Federation, and other journals, it seemed to me as if the advantages to be derived from a consolidation of the Empire increased, and the difficulties in the way of such a consummation decreased with every renewed consideration of the subject. I have since become a firm believer in the practicability of a closer British Union, and have endeavoured in this essay to recast the articles above re ferred to, incorporate them with new matter and place them before my fel low countrymen in the hope of induc ing in them a'like faith. It is not my object to provide an original scheme for the reconstruction of the British Em pire, for many of the suggestions here embodied have long been before the public. But I have tried to imitate theexample of Watt with the steam engine, and to so combine these as to produce a plan which may ultimately result in the construction of a political machine, capable of working well and harmoniously for the common weal.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers and Addresses: Imperial Federation and Colonisation, From 1880 to 1894 The present volume contains a selection of Lord Brassey's Speeches, Lectures, and Articles on Imperial Federation and Colonisation between the years 1880 and 1894. Of Lord Brassey's intimate acquaintance with all that relates to the Colonial Empire of Great Britain, or of the authority of his utterances on the subjects here dealt with, there is no need to speak. But as this volume contains, besides the text of Lord Brassey's own productions, a considerable amount of matter written by the Editors, it is due to the reader to say that their qualification for the work they have undertaken rests upon knowledge of the subject matter gained during several years of official connection with the Imperial Federation League, as Secretary, and as Editor of the Journal, respectively.
