SAN FRAscIsco, Sept. 20.--A Chron-
icle special about the dinner given 10 the
Willard party at Victoria, B. c.. says
that Premier Smyth, in replying TO the
toast of "The Queen" took occasion to
say that the annexation Of British Co.

States was impossible, but that the fu-
ture would certsinly bring to pass the
Of part Of the Pacific Coast
section Of the United States to British
Columbia. Continuing, the speaker
said: 'sIt IL a matter Of deep conviction

in the United States, that the country
cannot continue undivided. Its ele-
ments OF population are too varied and
the interests Of its different sections are
too diverse. The day will come when ii
must 20 to pieces, and When that day
comes British Columbia will be glad TO
take in her open arms that fragment
which Is her nearest neighbor. The
Indignation OF the Americans present at
the utterance OF such statements was
great, though as hosts they forshore t''
express It.
