The other day he was reported as having spoken at Halifax in favor of an immediate and direct contribution by Canada to the coBt of maintaining the British navy. A St. John, New Brunswick, dispatch of later date, reporting a speech by earl Grey at a Canadian Ciub luncheon, makes him say: "I have good reason for my view that Canada should not make any immediate contribution to the fleet. There are other directions in which it is more important in imperial interests that Canada should expend her present energies. "Canada and the empire are necessary to each other. Without the support and strength which Canada enjoyB as a portion of the British empire, Canada might soon lose her national existence, On the other hand the British empire without Canada might soon cease to be an empire. "So it is of first importance to the empire that Canada should be strong and that consequently all her surplus energies should be concentrated on what will increase her strength. The fact that the dominion government is not prepared to undertake obligations which these steps will involve until she is financially stronger than she is today is conclusive reason agalnBt her undertaking an expenditure which should follow and not precede those steps to which I have referred."

In Sunday's iBBUe of The Dally News brief reference was made to the case of •everal Scotsmen who had been Induced to migrate to British Columbia upon the apparent false representations of a Britlah emigration society. Further enquiry into the matter establishes beyond question that the officials ot this society knowingly misrepresented conditions to the, men they bare persuaded to come out to Nelaon. The chief cause ot complaint against this agency is the following clause ln the agreement with the purchasers ot fruit lands, this society was handling on commission for a Nelson real estate agent: '•This gentleman promises to meet the colonists on arrival at Nelson and give them free food and lodging at hla own ranch for a day or two ao that they can look around before settling down to work, and then employ them preparing fruit ranches, buildings, etc., for the whole of their time, or part time it they prefer, at |3 per day, plus food and lodging, so that they can easily earn more than enough to pay the flO monthly instalment for their own ranch and to pay for clearing same and building thereon, or they can work part time sufficient to earn enough to pay the Instalments and clear their own ranch, building their home with aome of the wood thereon." The Daily News has carefully gone over all correspondence passing between the emigration agency and the Nelson real estate dealer. This correspondence conclusively shows that no promise to provide free food ana* Todging, or to give employment at fl per day was ever made. Moreover lt shows that tbe Nel- ■A SNAP- Two Comers on Stanley and Observatory Streets. Finest building Jsites in the city. Six Lots. For particulars apply .... T. G. PROCTER, Nelson, B.

G. THOMSON BoB±esfe^Stat_, oner Phone 84 son man, having learned that the British agency was indulging in promises that he waa not prepared to give effect to, wrote and cabled the responsible officials o£ the company repudiating any such undertakings and distinctly demanding that any purchasers ot lands be carefully advised as to conditions here, and, further, urging that great care be exercised in the selection of emigrants in order that no incompetents be sent out. The correspondence shows that the Nelson man did all that it was possible for a man to do lo prevent anything in the nature of de. ceptlon being practiced upon intending emigrants. However, In spite of the plainest instructions, acknowledged to have been received before the last parties sailed for Canada, the British agency allowed tbese men to leave upon the distinct understanding that they would find employment here at the rate of $3 per day, with free food and lodging. A fair idea of the regard for truth displayed by the reverend president of this emigration agency may be gathered from a statement ln one of the circulars, Issued by the agency, to the effect that he, Rev. J. L. Brooks, left Manitoba and Alberta before winter had fully given Away to summer for Banff, "B. C." and "there found luscious grapes growing on the verandah" of the Banff hotel. This case certainly merits the attention of the board of trade. Some action should be taken at once to expose the fraudulent nature of the emigration campaign of this agency. The Scotsmen who have already arrived and And themselves without employment purpose laying all the facts before the attorney-general, in order that he may take the matter up In their and the province's interests. Dr. Hall, M. P. P., has taken thts end of the case in hand and will endeavor to have Hon, W. J, Bowser move vigorously ln the matter. THE JAPANESE INFLUX. Evidenseu accumlate that the recent large Influx of Japanese Into this province Is the outcome of systematic ettorts on the part of certain large employers acting in concert with Japanese boarding house keepers In Hawaii. We are able to publish today some of the terms of the contract the Japanese coolie enters into before leaving his home for British Columbia. Whilst no Canadian firm appears In the contract it is obvious that the Japanese agency concerned is merely acting on the behalf of some Canadian Institution. The clauses of the contract cited by our special correspondent In Vancouver suggest the possibility of tbe landing of these Japanese being contested under the Allen Labor Act. It Is evident that these coolies are hired to work In British Columbia and that the contracts entered Into are illegal. The Vancouver Province publishes tne text of a cable sent to Honolulu by the Japanese consul at Vancouver and the comment thereon of the Japanese con sul at Honolulu. This cable and consul Salto's comment appear to have had the effect of lessening the number of coolies sailing on the Indiana for Vancouver, and they also disclose a condition of affairs that the interior department would do well to investigate. There appear to be grounds to justify the belief lhat Japanese consul Morikawa is interested In the importation of Japanese coolies, and if that be the case his recall cannot' too speedily be insisted upon. The Province story reads; There is trouble between F. Maklua, the Honolulu Japanese who is bringing 3.5 of his countrymen to Vancouver on the steamship Indiana, aud Japanese consul Morikawa. News of the discord comes from Honolulu were Maklna gave an interview to the press before the Indiana sailed. . «. Makina, in an Interview published in the Honolulu Bulletin is quoted* ln the following language concerning his opinion of consul Morikawa: "You can say this as coming from me. That fellow Yoshli, who Is working together with consul Morikawa in connection with the immigration ot Japanese is certainly sore over my proposition. Yoshli and consul Morikawa are partners and naturally they like to see the Japanese come direct trom Japan instead of from Hawaii. They want to make money as well as we; but consul Morikawa is badly mistaken when he thinks 1 am afraid of him. I am not even afraid of consul Salto here, who always sides in with the planters. He can t stop me from moving nor can ue or con.ui Morikawa iutenere witli my affairs." vVueu consul Morikawa learned of the iiiieniion of Makina to snip another batch ot Japanese to Vancouver he tried tu block tne move and dispatched tae lollowing cable to Japanese con.ui Salto at Honolulu: "Three Kumeric Japanese died here. Very lew tound work; majority not employed. Must not send another lot here. Japanese hotel keepers and resident- heie will not welcome another lot even if they come. Can't afford it. Too much trouble now." immediately after he had read the cablegram consul Salto dispatched it to the office of a Japanese newspaper with the instructions to publish it tn tbe newspaper as a warning to those who intend to depart on the Indiana, which arrived yesterday. "It is an unmistakable fact that the Kumeric Japanese are suffering," said consul Salto, "consul Morikawa is justified In holding the show money to pay for the support of the Kumeric Japanese. They are evidently broke, and furthermore they have been unable to find employment, which is a very serious matter, "The Japanese hotelB are crowded and even the residents have had to look after a portion ot the Kumeric crowd, Thla is a hardship to them. I see the Indiana is In to take another batch of emigrants from here and I don't see how they could go after they have read this last cablegram. The cablegram waa so strongly worded out that any man of common sense should stop and give up his idea of going to Vancouver and remain here Instead." In connection with this Japanese Influx, which threatens grave evil to British Columbia, there are two points that just now call for special attention. Attorney-general Bowser has not as yet frankly taken the public Into his confidence regarding tbe uselessness of his bill of last session commonly known as the Natal Act, which the lieutenant- governor refused to sign. In fact the attorney-general is keeping up the farce that this bill would he effective to prevent the Incoming of Japanese were it assented to by the lieutenant-governor- This is a very childish proceeding and can only bring the agitation against Japanese immigration into contempt ln the east, when the tacts are understood. We pointed out sometime ago that owing to the careless manner ln whjch the bill had been drafted its chief provision was utterly defective and that instead of making unlawful the Incoming of Japanese coolies lt expressly legalizes it. Everyone knows that that was not the Intention of Mr .Bowser and ihe sooner he officially notifies the publlo that his b.ll is worthless the sooner public attention will be seriously directed to tbe accomplishment of something that will prove effective. The second point we would make is that It is the height of folly for certain alleged labor men in Vancouver to seek to monopolize lhe sole right to agitate for the prohibition of Oriental immigration into British Columbia. Those few people lu this province who want cheap coolie labor and would sooner give employment to a Chinaman than a white man, desire nothing better than that the leaders of the labor movement should proclaim that this is solely a labor issue. With a very large clas_ of people of eastern Canada lt is sufficient for any question to be advanced by organized labor to secure their unreasoning hostility. People who might be won over on national and patriotic grounds will never be induced lo take other than a hostile view of the question so long as they have the slightest excuse to believe that in so doing they would be siding with trade unionists. The fight against the flooding of B. C. with Orientals must be waged on broader grounds than the Interests of trades unionists. It is a far bigger question than one of wages' or hours of labor. It Is a question vitally affecting the well being of the province, its future prosperity and the business interests of every business and professional man within its limits. Trades unionists should welcome support In this tight from every honest source and a little thought must convince them that whilst the immediate ill effect of Oriental immigration may be felt in the cutting of wages, the ultimate result must inevitably be severe loss to business and professional men In every class and, in due course, serious depreciation ln property values, Mlnard's Liniment Cures Dlstempar aaNAiuys uiniment oo., i_t_.

CARDINALS PASSING AWAY HOME GUESSING AS TO THEIR SUCCESSORS IN SACRED COLLEGE- ARCHBISHOP BRUCHESI OF MONTREAL MAY BE ONE OP THEM. Rome, Aug. 19.—There la a Roman tradition that cardinals die three at a time. Cardinal Svampa, the archiliishop of Bologna, died recently and cardinals Nocella and Cretoni are reported to be near death. It is believed that two other cardinals have not long to live. Cardina Svampa was 56 years old. Before the election of the present pope he was spoken of as the probable successor of Leo XIII., principally because the prophecy of saint Malachl named the present pope "Ignis ardens," which is Latin for Vampa. There was much disappointment In Italy when Svampa was not proclaimed pope, because his known liberal tendencies pointed him out as a most desirable pontiff. When the tallan king visited Bolonga a few years ago the cardinal called upon bim in state, an action which evoked the sympathy of all Italian patriots . . Now that he is dead and that two other Italian cardinals are nearlng their end, there ls much speculation about their successors. The last appointments were all from among the Italians, and the pope was Informed from many parts of the world tbat Italians get too large a representation in the Sacred College In proportion to the number of church members In Italy. The' church ln Ar- gentla, the United States, Chill, Paraguay and other countries demanded representation, and the pope had to pledge his word that at the December consistory none of the appointees shall be Italian. The anti-clerical wave sweeping over Italy must confirm the pope in his decision, and ere long foreigners may have a majority In the college of cardinals. Most of the Italian cardinals are old and feeble and it is expected that few of them will be alive ten years from now. There Is no possibility that any new French cardinal will be created because of the troubles of the church In that country, but it is more than probable mat the English, Spanish, Austrian and German contingent is the sacred college will bo considerably Increased. Argentina Is likely to get a cardinal in the person of the archbishop ot Buenos Ay res, and the pope may have to yield to the demands of several other South American countries that they he represented. Mexico ls nearly sure of a nomination In the person of the archbishop of Mexico City, and archbishop Bruchesl, of Montreal, is more than like- ly to be elevated. As to the United States It Is'predicted thut archbishop Farley, of New York, and archbishop Ireland, of St. Paul, will be added to the number of the intimate advisers of the sovereign pontiff.

He expects to begin stoping and shipping ore before the fall says the Kaslo Koot- enain. The American Boy Is looked upon as being one of the best properties in the Kaslo-Slocan section, while Mr,. McGulgan is a mining man of many years practical experience, having been foreman of the American Boy for two years prior to 1898. Latterly he has been gold mining tn Oregon but has been lured back to thts district by the promise of greater rewards ln lead and silver mining In the Slocan. He will stay tn the country and personally superintend operations on his lease. Seven men are employed by H. Olegerich on the Maestro at Alnsworth and steady shipments are being made to the Hall Mines smelter. Plenty of ore Is blocked out and continued development ts Increasing the tonnage in sight. Development at the Rambler ls proceeding slowly owing to the accommodation still being Inadequate for a full sized crew. The work that Is being done ls proving very satisfactory.

Ottawa, Aug. 19,—During July there were thirty trade disputes in Canada reported to the department of labor, an increase of eleven as comapred with July o( last year. About 2S3 establishments and 6,715 employees were affected by these disputes. The time lost in working days was approximately 81,000 days compared with 54,710 in June and 27,710 in July, 1906. In the Cobalt strike 300 men were affected. In the building trades 1,241, and in metal trades, 427. During July there were accidents to 301 individual work people of Canada. Of these 124 were fatal and 287 resulted ln serious Injuries. The number ol fatalities was 24 more than in .nny of last year.

The upward tendency in wages as shown by the table has been more pronounced than during the corresponding period ot any previous year of which a statlsticial record has been kept ln Canada, with the single exception of that of 1903 when the number of Increases was greater, although, the number of employees affected was not so large as in the spring quarter of 1907. The changes reported during April, May and June last were 117 ln number; of these 104 were in the nalure of increases of wages, and two were ln the nature of decreases of hours, ln the remaining eleven ca^es the changes Involved both Increase in wages and decrease in hours.

Fielding has naturally led to considerable discussion ln the newspapers of the finance minister and his work. Many of the principal journals of London and of the province have paid tribute to Mr. Fielding's share In the work of Imperial unity, towards which the Laurler regime has contributed bo beneficially. One of these newspapers, "Britannia," an influential publication, goes so far as to claim for Mr. Fielding the real authorship of Mr. Joseph Chamberlain's programme of tariff reform, or rather preferential trade. If it bo asked how a liberal In Canadian politics can be the author of the new unionist policy in British politics the reply is that circumstances alter cases; tbat the value of a principle must be tested in its results; that while Mr. Fielding has established a preference for British goods in Canada and thus committed himself to protection, he also sees that the wonderful Increase In Canadian prosperity has been associated with the reduction of the tariff under the liberal regime; and, moreover, he sees lhat the wonderful progress of British trade proves that while free Imports may not be a -wise policy In Canada, England apparently thrives under It "Britannia" emphasizes this view when It says: "Mr. Fielding fully recognizes the position of* the British government at the present time, and that It Is a free trade governmen\elected by a great majority of tho British people, and as such cannot enter Into any preferentlaT'arran- gements with the colouleB which would mean a departure from the principles of free trade. But Mr. Fielding, and the government of which he is a member, are hopeful that the policy which they have carried Into effect, that of giving England a preference in Canadian markets, will, because of it being a free gift to the mother country, have a more certain effect than If ft was coupled with a condition that England should reciprocate." The article goes on to assert that the embodying of the preference for British goods in the policy of Canadian finance was no mere bargain on the commercial plane, but was an act arising from the higher considerations of the general debt of gratitude and devotion owed to the mother country for all she has done for the colonies and the world In general. We in Canada, says the Ottawa Free Press, know for ourselves how the preferential tariff has aided the commerce of Canada and Britain alike, how It has had the effect of lowering the rate of our taxation through the customs houses, and how beneficial all round It has been from the Canadian point of view. We also know that It has given In no huckstering spirit, but rather as an acknowledgement of the debt which Canada owed to the mother country, but it la interesting to have these facts pointed out to the people of Great Britain, who are too prone to look at the matter from a mere standpoint of pounds, shillings and pence, falling to recognize that the preference haB not only arrested the decline ot British trade wtth the dominion but has opened the door for Illimitable extension If British traders will only show themselves as anxious ai\d as enterprising as their competitors.
