Excerpt from Empire Club Speeches During the year 1903 Canadians took a deep interest in Mr. Chamberlain's policy and campaign and' in the months of October and November there took place throughout the country a very vigorous discussion of the Alaskan Boundary question and its settlement at the hands of the Tribunal in London. The feeling which was evinced in some quarters against the Mother-land in this latter connection, as well as the far wider and more general sentiment expressed in favour of some kind of closer Imperial unity, appeared to indicate the desir ability of a popular organization which Should appeal to the convenience and interest of the business men of Canadian cities and towns, and do so from a distinct standpoint of Empire union.
