KiplIno on Immioration.

Victoria, B. C., October 10.-Rudyard Kipling at a luncheon at the Canadian club yesterday, speaking of the ipmi- grafton problem of British Columbia, said the solution was the aiding of immi- grafton of people of British stock, thou sands of whom await opportunity to come to Canada's vast territory, the time had arrived to choose between this desired reinforcement or native stock and the undesirable rush of races whose in- stincts are separated by thousands of years. The choice cannot be delayed-it must be made at once. MT. Kipling will return to England without visiting the United States on his present trip.
