Boston, NcT. 19.-After a long de

bitter Language OF President Samuel
Gompers in dealirg with Socialism,
the American Federation OF Labor de-
feated resolutions pledging it to So
cialism. Nine resolutions presented

of the committees recommendation,

ANNEXATION.

Canada since the decision OF the
boundary question has been in state
OF unrest. She was bitterly disap-
pointed at the award, and vented her
in-feeling on England, Lord Alverstone
ana the American commissioners. Since
she has had time to think the remarks
Of her statesmen and OF her press have
become more temperate, yet there Is
no longer concealment OF her purpose
to take such matters in her own hands
in future.
Premier Laurier demands for Cam
ada the treaty-making power and as
this is an incident OF sovereignty. we
see how far our neighbors are prepared
TO go. There is no doubt that In the
last few years Canada has learned TO
consider herself a nation in all es-
sentials. and tho right to make trea-
ties is about all the control over her
affairs that England retains.
But many far-seeing Canadians hnd
the most natural solution OF her vsxed
problem in annexation 10 this coun-
try and several influential newspapers
have come out strongly in advocacy OF
this plan. Canada has everything TO
gain by this and nothing to lose. A
number OF her great provinces could
be admitted as states and the others
would rapidly develop under the magic
touch % American enterprise.
The two peoples after all are one ir
all essentials. the same blood. the same
religion and practically holding the
same ideals Of government. During
the last nfty years there has been I
constant tide OF emigration from Cam
ada to this country. and recently hel
great stretches OF fertile prairie land
have enticed a vast horde Of our sul
people within her borders. Thi
nlngling Of our people and hers wstl
