London, May 21.--Sir Wilrfrid ier authorizes the Chronicle to {He is perfectly satisfied' with the work and results of the conference. | Great progress had been made and the way had been prepared for good work in future. The Chronicle adds that the Canadian premier advocates preference, ; but is not disappointed because prefer- ence has not been obtained. He sees difficulties in conrection with applying the preference and the impossibilit-z. of the colonies offering the mother coun try free trade. "We depend," he says, "on our custom duties for our nation- al revenues. They could be towered, but not extinguished. It is impossible for us to find other sources of rovenue, We could not introduce an income tax or land tax, which would check the de- {velopment of resources." Sir Wil- alternative for the preference is a scheme for providing quicker and better means of communication between Great Britain. and the colonies. He hopes by the time he returns, in July, , that the government will have arriv ed at a decision on the question. It is {important that there should be no de- lay, as conference reports will show j that Laurier is opposed to having re- vorts of the proceedings published. His fear was that publicity would turn | the conference, which should be a seri- Laur- say rarliamentary debating society. INCIDENTS OF THE DAY.
