Constructed by Gabriele D'Annun- rio, Italy's foremost poet-and dra- matist, and produced at a cost of a quarter of a million dollars, "Ca- biria" has gratified the ambitions of the directors of the Itala Film Com- pany by reaching the highest point attainable in the amusement world. Their previous production, "The Fall of Troy," was unanimously declared a wonderful photographic achieve- ment, but "Cabiria" surpasses them all, and" can only be compared with 1 "The Passion Play" and "Jean d'Are." It would have been impossible to have produced "Cabiria" in the same manner as the two aforementioned spectacles, as five thousand actors and supers were necessary to the completion of the picture, and it is doubtful that any particular spot in the world would have afforded the | unusual scenic investiture which be- jeame a part picture only after six different countries had been visited and two years' timé had been spent. If "Cabiria" had been presented in that way, only those with sufficient resources to enjoy a European trip could have witnessed the exhibition, as in the case of the "Passion Play." Sb-- IMMIGRATION PROBLEM DEALT WITH AT QUEEN'S ALUM- NI CONFERENCE By Archibald McGoun, K. C. Montre- al, on Thursday Evening -- The Conference (losed on Friday Morn- ing. Archibald McGoun, K. © al, addressed Queen's Theological Alumni Conference in Convocation Hall Thursday evening on "The Im- migration Question." | After a reference to the protection given by the Jewish system to the stranger within the gates; to the failure of Sparta to head an empire by reason of her exclusion laws; to { the glory of Athens atiributed by Pericles to the absence of such laws, the speaker referred to the principles under which ofr nation has become' great, embodied in Magna Charta, which declares the right of alien merchants to trade in London, and! Euarantees personal libertyito every freeman, Applying this to the exclusion laws passed in British Columbia, it was shown that many of these were dis allowed by the ministers of Sir John MacDonald, Alexander Mackenzie and even as late as Sir Wilfrid Laur ler, on the recommendatién of many Ministers of Justice. Two despatch es were received from Mr. Chamber lain, Colonial Secretary, deprecating such laws and recommending their disallowance as offensive to friendly persons 'and contrary to the prin- ciples of eqliality which are the guid- ing principle of Brtish rule through out the Empire." This was acted, on, upon report of Hon. David Mills in 1899, Of late there has appeared a ten . Montre- dency to abandon the old' Liberal doc- | trine of every individual's right to have liberty and to substitute for it the right of local majority in small community tg exercise led authority over Yany minority in their midst mnprotected For this reason Government neglects and re- | fuses to exercise the power conferred by law laws Up to 1896 the right was freely exercised, but a new doctrine has- been put forward by Sir John Thompson, Sir Oliver Mowat and Mr Aylesworth, against which Sir Rich ard Cartwright had the manliness to protest, that disallowance should not be exercised unless laws and ultra vires and against general Canadian interests. The old doctrine that righteousness and justice should be considered has disappeared This reproach lies not only against Ottawa but against the Imperial Government, which has ignored the principles contained in Mr. Chamber- lain's despatch and has permitted of- fensive laws to go into effect: such | ally excluding African natives from political rights. in their own country. The courts have also set aside some laws as ultra vires, and offen- | sive. In Lac Singh Maguior the Supreme Court of British Columbia ! set aside an act requiring Chinamen { to take out a monthly license to be | allowed to work. The Chinese head tax was imposed in 1885 after a report of a commis- | sion of Mr. Chaplian. John Hamil- | ton Gray had found that Oriental la- | bor was useful and sometimes neces- | sary; that there was no more vice | among thém than among other white { men, and what there was could be | il- met by police regulation. But logically the tax was imposed as a concession to local prejudice. The speaker thought he recalled that the Liberals had opposed this. | But they had woefully lapsed by the | It was under | time they had power. Laurier that the tax was increased to $100 and then to $500. Thé amendments in 1910 to the | | Immigration Act gave the Minister | | power to exclude certain classes. Or- | ders-in-council including Asiatics | were then passed, but set aside as il- | unbrid- | to disallow offensive local | as the amendment of>1910 to the Canadian Immigration Act, and the! | Constitution of South Africa perpetu- | The farthest we can do is to provide against too rapid flux; and to re strict the franchise, withholding the vote till the people are imbued with the spirit of our laws Our own people have an advantage at the start to most positions of authority will long remain in our hands 8 existence of two or more races in a state are an advantage, not an evil, and does not cause deterioration.

Our Ministers are responsible for much of the immorality charged against the Orientals We refuse even the Hindus the right to bring in their wives The doctrine of a white man's country must back up the British Empire. We have forced ourselves on China, have intruded into India and Seuth Africa and taken Australia, part of which is not fit for white set tlement. The King owes protection ta 'aH his subjects and should not allow exclusion frem ayo! his do minions There could be no relief or annex ation to the United States, as amend ments 14 and 15 to this constitution guarantees equality to all races by law, and if this is obsefved in good faith exclusion must soon come If we seek peliéf in independence, we choose a lower instead of a high er rating, we lose our share in con- trolling the destiny and policy of the British Empire, If we present this | alternation to the people of British Columbia: that they must respect the rights of all British subjects, not one in a thousand would declare for in- dependence so as to give them right 10 persecute other races Practical endeavors are A law providing that "every British subject by birth or naturalization shall have in Canada, in all matters within the wathority of Parliament of Canada, § the rights and priviléges enjoy ed by the most favored aliens; and, immediate permission to the Hindus already here to bring in their wives and families." A vote of thanks to Mr. McGoun was moved by Principal Gordon and seconded by Rev. Dr. McDougall After the address a very interest ing debate took place on the ques tion of Oriental immigration between several of those present, including Prof. A. S. Ferguson, Queen's Uni- versity, Rev. D. C. Ramsay, Camrose; Rev. W. T. Wilkinson, Trenton; Rev Mr. Barton, Prescott; Rev. James Cumber.and, Amherst Isl and Prof. Gwillim, Queen's University.
