SYDNEY, January 1,
Sir E. Barton received a telegram from the Governor-General congratulating- him upon the second anniversary of the Commonwealth and expressing the opinion that local federation was the herald to Imperial federation, which was a reality and within sie-ht if not forced, but allowed to D-row α-radually. Sir E. Barton, in replying" agreed that wider federation should not be forced. The respect of each autonomy for the rights oi others would hold the Empire together. '■'■"■
