Our Fellow-Men.
A protectionist by profession and perhaps also by conviction, recently described protection as " giving work to poor fellow men and not to other people. This is a charming epigram and to take it seriously were to be culpaply dull. Still, as a matter of cold fact, the saying represents the idea held by many of our working people, namely, that all men outside tlie narrow borders of our little colony are aliens, and do not rank as fellow- beings except in the naturalist's sense. — Australian Trade Review. _________________
