The Canadian Courier raised a very interesting question. Commenting up on Mr. Borden's visit to England and his intention to discuss the naturaliza tion question, The Mail and Empire expressed itself favorable to a plot whereby each Dominion “might be competent to give a certificate of em pire citizenship to all its naturalizer people.”” This idea will be very gen erally accepted throughout Canada but The Courier asks how this will apply to the Sikhs on in this coun try. Of course it may be answered that these are not naturalized British subjects, but derive their “empire citi zenship,” if they have it, by birth. But we do not see that this answers our contemporary's question, which is a decidedly awkward one. As we un derstand the matter, a Sikh can vote in the United Kingdom if he has the necessary qualifications. — Victoria Colonist,
