OUR LAND OF PROMISE. To Canada's unprecedented prosper- ity is due, it seems, the later Asiatic invasion. So it is learned from late reports. The Chinese were the first to emigrate (under conservative gov- ernment band a cure wad found in the head tax, which began with $50 and was gradunlly increased to $500. Ten years 'ago the Japanese began to en- ter Canada, and so numerously that an exclusion law was suggested. Chamberlin, then solonfal" secretary, suggested an' educational test, and the federal governmen{ digallowed _ it. Later the imperial government . ar ged the ag by which the number of Japenese admitted to Can- ada in any one year would not ex- ceed 600. Peace reigried until the Hindoos, ex- soldiers of the British army in China, heard about this land of promise, and lprgely emigrated. The first con- tingent, arriving late in the season, suffered much. Many died., But the survivors, in the mext summer, thriv- ed. They wrote to their friends, and this alien blood again poured in. The fury of the people against Oriental subjugation was at once revived. The only test that can be applied -- of money and present independ has been defeated by the showing which the Hindoos and Japs have made. For the time being, the Canadian government is helpless, The Japanese, against whom the hatred is intense, are cotting from Hawaii, which is under American rule, and vet they are excluded from the mainland of the United States. The new treaty between the British empire and Japan is being examined into. It may have wiped out the old arrange ment respecting a limited emigration, ty and it may not. The Canadian gov- {ernment is investigating and negotia- ting, and without creating interna- tional troubles. reliel will be found if possible, Meanwhile these Orientals are tan- talizing in their attitude. They re: mind Canada that it wants popula- tion, and they affect surprise that they should be objected to when they are willing to work and so develop the marvellous resources of this fair country. The Chinese and Hindoos are humble in their bearing. The Ja- panese regard themselves as a super: ior race, and aim to become active in, business, the managers and embloyers of men, and eventually the captains of industry.

THE INTEREST OF LABOR. The meeting of the Trades and La- bour Council, in Winnipeg, attracted considerable attention, by reason of the mibjects which wore discussed. First there was the Lemienx act. The imprepsion was spread abroad, by tory prints, that the labour party was not satisfied with it, and one or two delegates did attack it in an ir- rational way, The sentiments they expressed, however, 'were personal or political. They may have represented a party which, when in power, did ae to earn the respect or grati- of the workingmen, and in op- position are given to the igmoble occupation of spreading discontent. Organized labour has put itself on record, through the executive of the Trades and Labour Council, as in fa- vour of the Lemieux Act, as heartily endors"ng it in principle, and of de- siring its provisions to be extended $0 that they may cover every labour dispute and every class and division of wage workers. The vote on this point was overwhelmingly large, this despite the fact that some tory emis- saries did what they could indirectly to produce a different result. The Asiatic immigration was a dif- ficult matter. The council viewed it with alarm, and felt that the only course Canada could pursue was to repeal the treaty which permitted of the invasion. The "appeal the prime minister evoked the only sensi- ble reply--that the treaty with Ja- to one party, but the unanimous expres- sion of parliament in the interest of that wider commercial relationship which cir t had = suggested. The premier promised, however, an in- quiry into all the facts. The conven- tion was dissatisfied, and some of its members talked of taking the issue to the polls. This is the correct resort. The is- sue is not a political one. That for- eign labour is crowding into Western Canada, that it is supplanting white labour, to some extent, that some of it is exempt from the poll tax which is levied on the Chinese, is trouble some enough. particularly so in the case of the Japs. But when interna- tional complications are possible, the government cannot, dare not, act impetuously. So say liberals and conservatives alike, lor there would be no sense in any one party assuming an attitude which time and cireum- stances would not justify. es EDITORIAL NOTES.
