In 1607 the first thanksgiving ser-

In 1621, after a year of depression.

ushered in by the ring of a cannon at
daybreak ; then ri\solemn pracession
was formed and marched to tbe meet-

How Mr. Templeman Was Defeated.
t rat ford Beacon. •
The defeat of the only Minister of
the Laurier Administration. Hon. Mr.
Templeman, in Victoria. B. C., was
due to the ant i -Asiatic agitatioh. The
Laurier Government, for imperial
reasons involved in the treaty made
by the Conservative Government of
Great Britain with Japan, refused to
prohibit Japanese irnuligration, but
secured by mutual agreement with
Japan a restriction of numbers which
sh1, II have satisfied reasonable men.
Mr. Borden, in corder to catch tot es,
however, declared himself on the eve
0 the contest in favor of total ex-
clusion, and it was this unpatriotic
course of the Conservative leader that
esused Mr. Templetnam's defeat sed
the reduction of fh•e Liberal r•ontin-
geat from British Columbia. In tak-
irg this attitude the Conservative
leader showed little regard for Im-
perial interests ant- British connec-
tion.
