Mr Chamberlain had a great deal to do with the recent Bugar logislation, and I am not going to stop here to enquire as to the propriety of his motives: but, suyhow, if the facts have already shown or the future should reveal that the increased cost of sugar to England is quite out of pro- portion to the advantage, actual or potential, gained by a West Indian Colony, or by English refiners, that legislation will not have been justified.
Our exports to foreign countries, in actual though possibly not potential value, are greater to-day than our exports to the Colonies; nothing must be done, therefore,

Lan very conscious of having already trespassed too much on your indulgence. and therefore cannot now discuss the principles underlying my Imperial Belief. We are all influenced by the power which national sentiment exerts upon the minds 1814 of men in their most practical relations. The fact that proference to our Colonies must have as its fundamental basis a moderate tax on food is axiomatic, and it is because of my conviction that the dis- advantage of such a tax will be more than compensated by a practical community of interest throughout the Empire, that I urge the acceptance of this policy a policy governed by a proper sense of Imperial Proportion.
It is true that Protectionists are not all fools: it is equally true that the greatest statesman is not infallible, and the fore- most man of his race' is, after all, human.
