OTHER LANDS THAN OURS, No more engaging personality has ap- peared in the public life of our time than that of the German emperor. And since an emperor's officlal position s insepara- ble from his personality, there Is both pub- Ml and private concern for his health and well-being. However we may criticise his policles, it is impossible not to admire the man, and the affection in which he is held \ Ly the German people, not less than his dominating place as the representative head of thelr great hation, must eause all Americans to share with them the anxiety caused by the recent dispatch from Pots- dam. There is nothing extraordinary or alarming In the occurrence of & sma tumor upon one of the vocal cords, such as the surgeons have removed, and we have no reasomy to doubt thelr assurance of its Innocuous character. Anxiety arises on from a remembrance that the emperor father died from cancerous affection of the throat, which also was thought inno- cent on its first appearance. But this may be only a coincMence. We heard a great deal of the emperor's 11l health on his dc- cession, and yet he has proved exception- ally robugt and of tireless activity, and ap- parently has lived down the evil proghos- tleations made in his youth. We, may hope that he will live down this latest alarm as well A new labor movement in Germany be- #an with the first meeting in Frankfurt the other day of the Congress of Workmen, who do not belong to the ranks of the so- clal democrats. It was composed of 200 delegates, representing 62,00 members. The object of it, as declared, was to give @ fresh and independent impetus to the cause of soclal reform, to dissociate it as far as possible from the political methods and revolutionary demands of the soclal democrats, and to correct the prevalent impression that outside the soclal demo- cratic party there are no workmen discon- tented with existing social legislation. The chairman, Herr Stegerwald, who is the president of the Assoclation of Christian Trade Unions, said that recent events which had shown the “imability of the party-gods of soclal democracy tp establish thelr claims to divinity” had rendered It all the more necessary for non-soclal dem- ocratic workmen to combine. The working classes were constantly reminded of their duties by the state and thelr empjoyers: if they wished to establish thelr rights they must act for themselves, as they could hope for nothing from the agitations of soclal democracy. The subjects for dis- cusslon were, first, the German working- men's right of coalition; secondly, the legal labllity of labor assoclations: and thirdly, the establishment of chambers of labor. Resolutions were adopted that “the or-| ®anization of wage-carners Is the only effective and therefore supremely impera- tive means of obtdining an equitable regu- Iation of the conditions of wages and labor upon a basls of free contract.” P \ Count Stephen Tisza, who for the second 1 time has undertaken the duties of Austro- 1 Hungurian prime minister, is reputed one of the ablest publio men In Jlungary and certainly the ablest of the younger genera- tlon. He I8 supposed to represent a poliey of “the strong hand” and to be rather in- clined to crush than to outmaneuver a foe. T./ke many men of strong character, he I8 not popular and he h wver consented to ccurt public favor. He Is a vigorous parti- san of the dual system ,and Is one of the fow Hungarians credited with possessing & comprehensive knowledge of International relations and of Hungary's true interna- tional horizon and an accurate perception of its positions In relation to the rest of Furope. He is not devold of ambition and his friends express anxlety lest his career #hoitld be wrecked in @ vain attempt to molve a situation which many belleve to be freoluble under present conditions. “'Hun- gary.” says a Vienna correspondent of a YTondon newspaper, “Is not overstocked ‘with great men and a second flasco, which ‘wauld stamp him the fruitless candidate of Vienna, would damage his prestige to an extent from which even his youth might not enable him to recover. It Is, therefore, to be hoped that his attempt may succeed and that the Impulseés which has made him throw himself into the breach may not prove to have been as futile as it was gen- erous. No recent political event in Spain bas created such a stir as the pessimistic nature of the speech in which Senor Silvela announced to the Cortes his retirement from public life. He said that he resigned because he had come to the melancholy conclusion that at present Spain does not ‘want a fleet, nor an army, nor public in- struction. It is interested only In ma- terial reforms, in agriculture, In Industry, trade and public works. For his part, if he ‘were to remal fin office, the country must want an army, a fleet, and such a farelgn policy worthy of it, & forelgn policy frankly " accepted without fear of the risks. To be I © on equally good terms with everybody-is not & policy. To combat this state of pub- lle opinion he required the backing of a robust and stable party. At certain mo- ments he had fancled thet he might obtain it. When the illusion vanished, with it ‘went all the courage which enabled him to hold office. Ho was & man who had lost falth and hope. It was expected that the prime minister, Senor Villaverde, would vigorously protest against so fainthearted & conception of Spain's condition, but he falled to make any reply, and his siience I created a bad impression, especially after the apathy with which he had listened to & previous assault upen the monarchy on the day before. The Con- Servatives are reported to be demoralized entirely by Senor Silvela's speech An irperial decree has just been issued i Russia dealing with the expulsion of foreigners from Russian territory. The most important of the new regulations is that forelgners condemned to pemal servi- tude or exile are not liable to expulsion, but foreigners condemned to other forms of deprivation of freedom are lable to expulsion not sooner than the expiration of the specified periods for which depriva- tion of personal freedom takes place Forelgners liable to expulsion will receive an intimation to that effect, specifying a term of grace to be allowed them. If they do not take advantage of the Intimation they will be escorted across the frontier. It they return a second time after their expulsion they will be treated as vaga- bonds. RACE LINES IN INDUSTRY. Significant Facts Revealed by OMeial tion in Massachusetts. Springfield Republican. The State Bureau of Labor Statistics ls- sues today an interesting c:hibit of the extent to which the Industry of the com- monwealth has come to depend on persons of forelgn birth or parentage. The classi- fieation by race and Industry is elaborate, but the following summary will best serve to bring the facts to the attention of the general reader—the figure= representing the percentages of the nati. - .nd forelgn ele- ment in each general class of employment: Foreign Native birth of birth of Oceupations. descent. descent.

It will be seen that while the native ele- ment predominates in the professions, in | trade, and especially in agricuiture, this s only to a slight extent the case in federal, state and local government where the two classes very closely divide honors. The large fraction of foreign employment in the professions, in trade and in transportation, further show how far this element in the nopulation has been rising from the state of common labor. Take the professions as here classified: » P?r t‘vs(. " ‘oreign. Natlive. Religion 50.60 Ho Law .. 80.69 | Medlcin 3 Literature 7 art. ........ 67. Muslc .8 63. Amusements .8 Education 2.4 Sclence oM % It is a rather striking presentation In these higher occupations which the foreign element makes. We should have expected, however, to find the foreign percentage higher in the law and lower in the minis- try of religlop. Among those of immediate foreign extrdction those of Irish birth and descent are easily first numerically, form- ing 28.7 per cent of the whole number em- ployed in all industries, while other races form altogether 3.7 per cent. The bureau report concludes from the figures: “The fact is plain that the strong industrial con- dition of Massachusetts has been secured and is held not by the labor of what is called the ‘native stock,’ but by that of the Immigrants from all climes, who have left their native lands to seek here oppor- tunities for financial advancement and po- litical and religious liberty.” 4 WAIFS OF THE WITS, Johuny—Mamma says you've got to come home right now! | Johnny's Little Sister—I wish wouldn't talk that Ay Lo me! me mad in the face!--Phi you It makes ladelphia Press.

Steam heat and electric lights will probably follow the last adéition. For of careful students of the crop situation ha come from the farms of this country this year. The estimates show that it is reason- able to expect a corn crop worth on the farm $1,085,000,00; a cotton $575,000,000; & wheat crop worth $492,000,000, and an oats crop worth $215,500,00. These total $2377.500,000 and no account is taken of the various other products. The government report for corn, oats, and for cotton on the figures of Theo- dore H. Price, who is an acknowledged cot- ton expert. 2,300,000,000 bushels; of wheat at 674,000,000 bushels; of oats at 787,000,000 bushels, and of cotton at 11,500,000 bales. The estimated prices for these commodities during the year are 45 cents for corm, 73 cents for wheat, 35 cents for cats and 0 a bale for | cotton. The crop records of some of the individ- ual states for this year are amazing. The lead seems to be held safely enough by Nebraska, with its 46,000,000 bushels of heat, which should yield $33,215,000; 222,- ,000_ bushels of corn ylelding $100,000,000, and 53,000,000 bushels of oats, worth proba- bly $18,581,000; & total of nearly $152,000.000.

The Illinols corn crop is §1,000,000 bushels under the 12,000,000-bushel crop of last year, but it | will probably bring at least 10 cents more a bushel on the farm. Its value this year 1s $131,000,000, which would seem enough. So the figures run throughout the \vest. Towa's farmers have figured far enough e they know the corn crop will bring them about $:02,000,00, which with wheat and oats will yield in all nearly $146,000,000, or about 366 to each of the 2,231,000 residents of the state. In Missouri the three crops will bring about $106,000,000, or $34 to each person. The corn crop was a source of trial this year. It was some §5,000,000 bushels under that of 1%2.

It Is estimated that Alabama will produce 1,216,000 bales, which should yield nearly, $61,000,000, an increase of about $13,000,000 compared with 1902. This is enough money from cotton alome to give every citizen of the state 33, and its erop of corn increases this to $42. Mississippl expects a cotton orop of 1,600,000 bales, worth at least $53,000,000, or enough to yield $53 to each of its sons. Its cotton will probably bring it some $10,000,000 over last year's srop. Geergla's cotton should bring It over §78,000,000, and its corn nearly $20,000,000, s0 in all, its two big crops make about $44 a head. Arkansas' cotton would give §38 to each of its 1,311,00 citizens and its corn $16, & total of %t aplece. In Louisiana cotton and corn should yfeld $41 to each person within the borders of the state. The records of Oklahoma and Indian Ter- ritory this year are especially interesting. To each of Oklahoma's 400,000 residents cot- ton should yield $30, wheat $41 and oats 37, a total of §18.
