There are twenty- one Latign-American states which dom- bined have a i ger area than Canada and `the United Sta es combined, and popula- .tion7aggregating eighty millions. There are vast areas in these countries which are` as yet unexploited, while in others the mineral and other natural wealth has only been scratched. Those who are in touch with developments assert that .C nada s prospects for a greatvvolume of trade with those 'Latin-American countries. are but little understood. The-"distance separat- ing the Dominion. front them is not great. and there is a distinctly warmer feeling in most of them for British interests than for those` of other outside countries. What seems to be: needed most for the opening of this trade avenue on -a proper. scale, is a close study of "the requirements of thei market offered and of the conditions under which they can be filldd.

THE BAR_RlE EXAMINER renrled the advent into the political aigenal of this country of the Progressive party inli Federal affairs, and which. in provincial` fields is usually known as the -United Farm- ers. The resignation of Hon. T. A. Crerar,l leader of the Progressives in the Dominionl House of Commons, in order that he might? give his `sole attention to the-Grain Grow- lers organisation. with which he has been connected for a number of years. was not altogether unexpected. There is no inten- tion'here to attempt a discussion of the.` motives. actually `known or inferred, whichl led to the step. The" successor to Mr. Crerar was found by the Progressive cau cus at Winnipeg in Robert Forke, member of Parliament for Brandon. He is a native of Scotland. who has become a successful farmer and an expert in municipal af- |fairs in his adopted country. He is now `serving his first term in Parliarix-e.u\t, and his Qioice as their leader may be taken j as a vote of confidence in his abilities on the part of the other.Progre$ive mem-bers.
