constitutional amendment to be vot-

voters OF the State are to decide
whether or not negroes owning $500
worth Of property and paying taxes

Under the nig8es bills. only white
men will be allowed to register and

The property qualification was sug-
gested by City Solicitor Edgar Allan

during the years 1901 to 1908, inclu-
sive, were 3s3.s0s. The number last
year was ss.s2s. However. this migra-
ton was Offset to large extent by
the fact that In 1908 Canadians to the
number OF 54,448 settled In the United
States.
Canada discourages immigration
from Southern Europe. II keeps out
the Chinese by imposing a head tax
og $500. An agreement with Japan
limits the number Of Japanese coming
in to 400 year. The Hindoos are
barred by a law providing that immi-
grants coming otherwise than by a
continuous journey from the country
OF which they are natives may be ex-
Guided. A continuous trip from India
ID impossible. So the great bulk Of
the immigrants are from the United
States and Northern Europe.
Contract labor is not forbidden. On
the contrary, intending immigrants
are encouraged to arrange In advance
for employment, 10 possible.
