JAMAICA'S FUTURE,

While we are enumerating the sue
cessess of England's colonial system as a
justification of our course in extending
our domain among the distant Pacific is
lands it is significant that the future of
Great Britain's West India possessions is
the subject of serious discussion, not only
in London but in Washington as well.
Our readers will recall the announcement
made some time since to the effect that
the people of Jamaica were loud in their
expressions of desire for annexation to
the United States. The troubles which
led TO the discomfort finding voice in that
expression have not ceased, but are pro-
crossing to more critical stages.
In this connection it is announced that
our authorities in Washington have an
interest in the coming of Jamaca's reci-
procity commissioners greater than the
trade of that British possession warrants.
\ feeling is said to prevail that before
these commissioners return to their
homes they will bring the entire question
of the future of the West Indies to a
focus. The British foreign office Is be-
leved to have asked other British de-
pendencies TO send representatives to
Washington at this time for the purpose
of counteracting the influence of the
Jamaican commissioners, but in view of
the state of feeling among the people of
that island the chances are that our
British cousins Will be unable to ac-
complish that purpose.
If the Jamaica commission should ask
for direct annexation to the United States
following the failure of that body to Sc
cure reciprocity, their step might give
rise to a more serious controversy than
that over the Alaskan boundary; and
this is to all appearances one of the
probabilities confronting Uncle Sam at
the present time. Burlington Free Press.

not yet been begun. Steel workers are
