THE LONDON PRESS |
Hopes the Conference Wi!] Result in Much Good.
The London Times, referring editorially to the international conference at Quebec, rays: “It is pessible that future bisierians will mark Angust 23, 1898, as a date of considerable importance in the chronicle of the relations between Great Britain and the United States. It may be hoped that the (Jaebec conference will clear away a number of irritating difficulties and view the impending peace negotiations and the prospect of a better uni lerstan ding between England and the United States as extreme~ ly Important,
“The conference has an imposing list of subjects to deal with, and if any real busi- ness is to be done there must be a very active tendency to conciliation among the com missioners.
“We may be sure the United States will do their utmost to make the conference a success.”
The Standard publishes a similar edi- torial. It declares that anything bringing Cauada and the United States into closer and more amicable relations is a gaia for both Eagland and the United States.
The Daily News says: “Itis a happy augury that the conference meets in the capital of old French Canada, which city years ago was the seat of the conference that led to the federation of British North America. Today’s gathering may be-the first sep in &@ reunion movement before which even the making of the Dominion would pale into insignificance.”

Montreal Gazette: Russia, it is said, wil
not be ready to fight Eogland for three years. Uatil three yeare, therefore, it is fairly sure there will be no war over
China, so far as Russia bas the making of
it. And, more than probably ia the future years Russia will be little prepared for war with Great Britain as now. She is not,and caa-
not in that time become asea-power, and bas great interests that a superior sea-
power would be sure to assail and destroy.

Torosto Star: Mr. Powderiy, Uncle Sam’s chief immigration official, who has charge ofthe enforcsment of the aliex
labor law aod who was one of its framers, was in Montreal the other day explaining that the measure was notaimed at Cana- diane, On the same day, at Port Huron, Inspector Petit, Mr. Powderly’s sabordin- aie, turoed back twenty~six men who had tickets purchased over the Grand Trunk io North Dakota points, refusing them entrance on the grounds that they were violating the alieu labor law.
This is a case where facts seem to con- tradict Mr. Powdserley’s protestations. Either Mr. Powderley is trying to jolly Canada, or his alien Jabor law is very clumsily drawn. In any case Canadians are chiefly interested in facts and the oper- ation of the law. It is the law itself, and not the intention of the framers that affects Canada.
