NUMBER 9 HI The Asiatic Exclusion league meeting held hurt on Tuesday evening wan a decided suchwh, tWllltlng in n lui'ge number ol new metnbera lielng enrolled and showing the intern that is taken in thu city and district, ami whloh w oo r respond I ngly felt' throughout tho province, There were over one hundred present. Mayor A. K. Kealy occupied the oha'r and opened tbe meeting, declaring 'ti purpooe and speaking ut aotlle length on the subject. The question, lie snid, wm exceedingly Important, and one that the people of the ensl are almost equally in- tereated in. It has brought great niindn to consider the question, The people tf British Columbia are nearest the orient and we therefore feel it most, There are many Bides, further stated (he mayor, but Mie majority acknowledge th.ii Mm must he u white man's country. We liave to consider what haw previously ex- isted. The Orientals have heretofore been allowed in'the country nnd have invested here, lloih governments nre to blame for allowing this, Those who havo to do with councils know thut the people are quirk to Slim np a question. It Ih, however, found that the difficulty if* nol -so easily solved, We nni*-! give the governments credit for ability to wive (be problem, and until they tail entirely tdiould not condemn them. There 's tm doubt, he said, that if the Immigration were to continue Hritieh Columbia would be in nn awkward position. tMr. Kealy referred to Mr, Q, II. Cowan's Speech in Vancouver, and it wan, he lie- lleved, the heft he had hoard on tiie subject, Mr. Von Kin-Hi. president of the league in Vancouver, t-aid lhe Asiatic Exclusion league originated in Vancouver nnd the object of itn organisation wart tbe m.aft vital question of (lie day to l»- -dealt with in the Dominion. He spoke of a large |>etition being signed in Vancouver to present to Ituth local and Federal governnienla. Tin- petition did not nnk for partial exclusion but for the enactment of lawn that required the ed- ii- iiii ni. il i*-*'. to he |iut to tli-v-H* entering (he Dominion such as was in force in other Hine-h colonies*. This, he Im>- lieveil, would result in alllMMl B-bsolllto exclusion. Further, «l was thought it WM a jHiliticnl question lhat iliu.ili! lie taken up by eveiy party, Regarding the influx of Chinamen it was for some reason larger now than ever in Spjte of the |800 head tax, The city solicitor in Vancouver made the atatemenl that ohe*fifth of thu en< lire (■*.(.nl.iti "tt uf the city was Oriental and allowing the growth to average three to one, the result would SOOn iw diaaatiHHM, The Dominion paity had Ihe rei lie uf power and there seemed to be a diepot-i- tion to shift the re>poiutibility to other* und SO on back and forth, Heupectiig the treaty there was never u greater farce. If it wan the raee a European would have the Mine rights in China or Japan ns the Japanese and Chinamen has in the European countries. This wan not the cose, and Mr. Von Jihcin quoted several Instances in furtherance of hie etalemenk The Jap work* for one-third of Ihe prevailing ffflgft, while the white man Cannol live on such wage*, not having been aci uetoined to the tare lliaj Ihe Oiiental can euhslsl Upon, he na id. Tbe commission movement-, nuid Mr Von itheiu, weh absolutely u«elet**t*.. af- fordlng occupation and pleaanrs for Mine eaaternei »ho did not understand the eiiiiHiiiin in British Columbiai The I" iiuiiii "i go -I * it,- through a con)' mMon would he greater if a western inun should I"1 lent, There wao, he said, no ooDiletinoj In the pretended nece* iltj for Oriental laboi for railway nml development work. This work wm car* Had on in Die eiiNl, ami »« lar went as the boundaries of thli province by white labor, yet heie large corpoiatioiiH found it lo iheir purpose to employ Oriental labor. Dr. Jordan, of North Vancouver, Spoke nexl, opening with thc atatemenl that the time hiul arrived when tbe pet-phot llrilieh Columbia bad to nny to tlm i.i-f and alno Io the tar Mil lhat we want no more Oriental labor here. The labor in the long run being dear at sny price, The doctor (bought it should lie a political iwue to la> taken up by all pah lie*, nnd furthermore, he conmdered the time would roon come when all faction' of the pun in '' would take a derided itand and force wme action. The labor* ing mnn needed to be backed up in thin matter by every class. Referring to thc growth of Vancouver he observed that at the present rate there need not be auy need of imported labor. The educational requirements wan also another leading point, the allowing of a refund of the head tax after fFTe Oriental had '■hown that he had complied with the regulations regarding a year's attendance at School in this city. Thin, the doctor considered, was an easy loophole to gel their tax money back. In regard to the revenue obtained from ench Chinaman ou entering the country the Dominion government got 50 per cent which directly came out of the citizens of British Columbia who paid wnges to the Chinaman, who in turn sent to China for bin cousin with the money acquired in this province. Gordon Grant, secretary of the Exclusion league in Vancoiiver, wart the next speaker. Ile referred to the unanimous feeling in Viotoria in regard to exclusion. The question, Minted Mr. Grant, effected not only the workingmun but the whole Dominion, Itegarding Uio manufacturer's claim that the treat,) cannot he broken, Mr. (Jrant claimed thnt in tho first place the articles of agreement stated that the treaty could be annulled by giving six months' notice aud it also stipulated that not more than 4SI! Japanese Immigrants would he allowed to enter each year. This portion of the agreement which had lieen absolutely broken wiih a sufficient mean* for the breaking of the treaty. The invading of the many industries of the province by the Orientals were serious conditions, aud also tlu* white man being superior to these people in every way ^et the action of the governments indl rated that the whiten were expected to lower themselves and compete on the same plan an the Japanese, J. W. Wilton, a prominent member of the executive of the league in Vancouver, touched on the health phase of the question. He referred lo the plagues and diseases of all kinds that existed 'n the cities in China and also its invasion in San l-'rancisco in the Asiatic quarter and the great danger it would In1 Io Canediah coast towns if such conditions were permitted to grow. In re giihi to the importation of cheap labor hy capitalists, il. WM known that the white man was capable of developing work lhat was worth while developing The railways in the United States and Mastetn Canada, continued Mr. Wilton, had all been built without this class of labor ami why could not British Coin hia railways be built likewise, .Mr. Cumineiford Spoke endowing the views of former shakers, Keeve May, of the district of Xorlh Vam-oitver, was railed upon. Mr. May ^intended that this provime hnd even reason -und facility for being entirely fl while man's country, "Suppose,* lie said, "we do 'need railway and publii works development at once, why not get our own blood and kin *from the old country who will mix with the Can i dians and build up the country and be- conm national citizens." Mr. Harry Cowan then took the plat form. Mr. Cowan went into tho different phases of the question with "pint, stating it was a great qne-tion to he 1 A meeting nl the Horticultural nml Agricultural noeli'ty ivns held in llir (liiini,'!'

The local school board has lor a long time been grappling with the question ol procuring suitable school sites in the city, The task was no easy one, and we are pleased to note the success ol its labors. At no distant date a bylaw will he submitted by the city council to the ratepayers lor their approval The amount ol money to be raised by way of a civic loan is indeed a most nominal one, totalling in round figures the comparatively small sum ot about $43,000, to be expended thusly : (1) For block 2, D. L, 273, approximately lour acres, $20,000. This is one of the besl buys in North Vancouver. A year ago it could be bought lor $7,400. ii) For the northeast corner ol Seventeenth street and St. Andrew's avenue, three and one-third acres, cleared and graded ft 1,000. This proposition may be secured by the city issuing live per cent, bonds to run for 50 years. (,3) For the northwest corner ol Chesterfield avenue and Twenty second street, three and one-third acres, cleared, $10,000. The same terms as number two will be acceptable to the seller. The board are to be commended lor lis energy and enterprise in being able to put before the citizens three sites, ihe locations ol which cannot be (quailed in lhe ciiy, as all sections have been carelully considered. In addition to the foregoing sites the board has arranged with Mr. lell, the manager ol the Lonsdale estate, when U.L. 552, west of the Indian mission, is resurveyed, thai a site will be set apart lor school purposes: Taken into consideration the difficulties that Vancouver and New Westminster went through and the high prices paid hy Ihcni or school grounds, should be an object lesson lor North Vancouver to act promptly. Once these grounds are sub-divided into town lots and buildings erecud thereon it would be noil to an impossibility lor the city to get these properties. As it is expected that the location ol Ihe pound will be removed shortly,.it is to be hoped that the city will annex the vacated property to the grounds of the Chesterfield avenue school. The attendance at the schools are increasing most rapidly, there being over 2011 pupils attending thc foregoing school. The board has already taken steps for additional school accommodation, lor which an extraordinary expenditure musl be provided lor.
