In view of tbo insecurity of life and

niust bold themselves at liberty to increase
their naval aimanent upon Ihe Lakei, if
they shall find tbat proceeding necessary.
The condition of the border will neces
sarily come into consideration, iu connec
tion with Ibe questiou of continuing or
modifying tbe right of transit from Canada

regulation of imports which was tempura-
that tbe colonial authorities of Canada are
not deemed to be intentionally unjust or

on the contrary there is every reason to
