At a meeting of the Canadian Manufacturers' Association, the question of the admission of nliens was discussed. The Association passed a resolution to the effect that the Japanese Treaty had dono mi'ch to develop trade, and that its abrogation would be disastrous.. The meeting also decided to urge the Canadian Prime Minister (Sir Wilfrid Laurier) to be extremely cautious. In a speech at Vancouver, ilr. Borden, Leader of the Opposition,' declared that British Columbia must remain dominated by men drawn from the great pioneering races. Sir Wilfrid Laarier, replying to a resolution adopted by the Trades and Labour Congress at Winnipeg, declined to donounce the Japanese treaty, which, he said, had proved of great advantage. Trade with Japan had considerably increased. Sir Wilfrid declared that the recent disturbances at Vancouver had been directed against Asiatics generally, rather than against tha Japanese specially.
