TOPICAL READING.
FUTURE OF THE PACIFIC
Whether as parts of the British Navy or as colonial navies cooperating with the British Navy, the. ships maintained by Australia and New Zealand must become a very telling factor in Pacific naval affairs, remarks the Auckland "Herald." The German, French, Djteh. Japm'se, Chinese, American, Mexican, and other interests in the Pacific, are all factors in the nival unjlim, anl rime of them will be a'r.le to ignore British Australasia when its population is fifty millions instead of five. The sooner our population is more proportionate with our territirie?, and the more we assume for ourselves the necessary duties of pel? protection, the'more ready we shall find the American or any other Government toco-operate with the Imperial authorities on behalf of the white races in the Pacific.
