The Canadian Rvhihits at Chicago. 



In this (ic^partruont Canatla obtained 30 modalfl and 

 Transportation^ diplomas,. Tlie Canadian Pacific llaihvay train was 



referred to as the finest and most complete on exhi- 

 bition, which reflects great credit on the position manufacturing 

 enterprise has reached in Canada. t , . ^ 



The great development in the industries of thb 

 Manufactures, Dominion is illustrated very aptly by the following 



return, taken from the census of 1891 : — 



Canada had a most interesting exhibit of manufactures, which secured 

 124 awards, and drew an appreciative statement from the president of 

 the jurors on textiles — a member of the Austrian Commission, and him- 

 self a manufacturer of high-grade cloths in Austria — to the effect that 

 the progress made by textile manufacturers in Canada had been more 

 rapid during the last five years than that of any otb*^r country show- 

 ing industrial products. It will be remembered by many readers of 

 these pamphlets that Canada's display of manufactured articles at the 

 Colonial and Indian Exhibition in 1886 attracted much attention. 



The educational system of the Dominion has a world-wide reputa- 

 tion, and the exhibits in that department were naturally, therefore, an 

 object of sustained interest throughout Ihe course of the Exhibition. 

 191 awards were obtained by Canada. No better evidence of the 

 excellence of the display can be had than that in a section supposed 

 to be the smallest among the Canadian exhibits, such a large number 

 of awards should have been secured.
