ADVERTISING AUSTRALIA
SIR GEO. REID'S INFLUENCE
INCREASED IMMIGRATION.
By TeJeGrraph.— Association-—-Copyright (Received January 17, 11 p.m.) London, January 17. The Globe, in an article on " Australian Development," says that the most sceptical of Australians must admit that it has been worth while appointing a High Commissioner, inasmuch as Britain has heard more about Australia since Sir George Reid's arrival than ever before, and the result has been a perceptible lift in emigration. It is now understood far and wide," remarks the Globe, "that Australia is desirous of population, and that there is no such prejudice in Australia against Englishmen as in Canada, where it is often announced that 'No English need apply.' "We hear good accounts of settlers in Australia," the article concludes. "No advertisement equals the private home letters from contented settlers. It is probable, now that the Northern territory is under Commonwealth control, that settlers with some capital will turn their attention to the neighbourhood of Port Darwin."
