SIR GEORGE REID.
A VISIT TO CANADA. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Ottawa, September 10. Sir George Reid, speaking at a banquet in honor of Mr. Borden, said that the Ministers, when in London, were admitted to the very arcana of the Empire, trusted with secrets of the highest importance, and made to feel everywhere that they were members of the Imnerat brotherhood. When one thought of the great stretches of seas that divided as well as united the Empire, one could no ! , but be affected t>y the thought of the great problem of defence, but the rae» that built up the Empire should be abb to maintain it in future.
Sir George Reid was loudly cheerel on saying that those who talked of G>e mother of nations being dead or dying ■were entirely mistaken, and if peri! came Britons would be true to their stock.
