AUSTRALIAN CONCEIT.
THE WORLD'S BEST. A LONG WAY TO GO YET. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright Melbourne, February 12. > Speaking at the Victoria League reception, Earl Grey said in England they had a very good opinion of Australia. It was very evident that Australians thought themselves the best people in the world. Perhaps when they had learnt more they might lay claim to the distinction, but that time was not now. In any case, Australians must not Hatter themselves that they were better than the English. They had a | good way to go before that could be said.
