Recently, in the Canadian Parliament, the two men who moved the address in reply to the speech of the Governor-General related to unity in diversity, were, one a German, the other a Frenchman. The fact illustrates the diversity of races brought together in political harmony in the British colony. That the German Social-Democrats were merely holding in reserve their fire, in deference to the wave of war-patriotism which swept them off their feet, was very apparent. Those Germans who believed that what they have called the spiritual rebirth of their nation would disarm the pestiferous Social-Democrats for all time were bound to be disappointed.
