;• AND IMPERIAL PREFERENCE. By TeloEraph—Press Association—Copyright (Rec. February 9, 5.5 p.m.) London, February 8/ Mr. Bonar Law, speaking at tho Unionist dinner, said that the moment tho Unionists were entrusted with power they would be able, without food duties, to givo the Dominions precisely whnt was asked for in tho Imperial Conferences, namely, preference on existing duties. If it were impossiglo to havo a preferential system which would help in the consolidating of the Empire without the food duties, then they would endeavour to carry the latter, but only after submitting the issue to the people, and convincing, them that these would be to the advantage of both the Empire arid the United Kingdom.
