Encouragement of Trade.
Mr R. W. Hanbury, President of the. Board of Agriculture, speaking at a Primrose League meeting at Preston, said the’Erapire’s expansion was ending. He considered that the keynote of future policy would be “ Trade.” The time was approaching, proceeded Mr Hanbury, when Great Britain will not depend so much for food and raw material on foreigners as heretofore. The Empire was now so wide, he remarked, that the people must depend less on birth and wealth to govern them as in the past and more upon talent and merit wherever it was found.
