CANADA AND THE CHINESE.

Ottawa, May 10 (specal). Tho labor organizations
of Canada have long opposed the Governments in
migration policy, especially in regard to the introduc
ton of pauper labor from the English workhouseS
and the landing OF Chinese at the Pacific ports. A
strong deputatton from the Trades and Labor Congress
brought the matter before Sir John Macdonald yes
terday. The deputation declared that the Chinese
were undesirable immigrants, and the Premier was
asked to devise some to restrict ssl further
their landing in Canada, or, possible, TO exodune
them altogether Sir John said that such action
eeuM be taken by the Government, as in his opinion
the $50 por-tax Imposed every Chanaman On land
ing was restriction enough. The Chinese did not as
rnIe remain in the Dominion, but landed here with
the intention OF going to the United statee at
t1e aariiest noSsb)e moment The United States had
by their exclusive policy antagonized the chinese COY
ernment and 1t would therefore be unwise for Canada
10 eopardize her Asatc trade, which was being built
mn at the expense of the United States.
