There are frequent references in

the press to the possible union of the British West Indies with the Domin- ion of Canada. This union talk comes first from the discontent in Jamaica owing to the depression in the sugar trade. It deriw es newV_ interest from the United States having acqu-

lired control of the Spanish West In-

dies. If Canada were now to acquire lsome tropical islands it would be an historic paralled for what happened twenty eiglit years ago in higlier lat- iitudes. In 1857 the 'United States purchased Alaska from Russia. Three

The notion of union between

Canada and the British West Indies is yet comparativclyznew, but there is no telling to what it may yet grow.

Referring to the charges of incomp-
