We shall to a large extent supply our own home demand for manuiactured goods of every kind. We have the raw material, we have the fuel and we have the capital. Thus the young man of enterprise in the East who wishes to enter the manufacturing business would better come West. Now is the time to start in. T — By way of enabling Great Britain to meet the com- petition of her commercial rivals a resolution has been introduced in the Commons by a Liberal Unionist providing for a tax at British ports upon all foreign ships that receive bounties from their home Governments. The scheme looks like a good one, but it would be very easy for other Governments to retaliate and make it sultry for British vessels. factu the country m tr | his rebellious tongue bored with hot iron, his con-| | viction brings so little satisfaction that the pious | company of the converts of another Christian sect, | and celebrated the event by getting them all together | and they recur fondly to the earlier and better day { who told them exactly why that volcano ranted and | | swore. | rope are afraid of him. | been fluttered and alarmed by rumors that the Kaiser | dragoons, and just ncw they are going through an somewhat abridged their cannibal diet and are cultivating an appetite for vegetables and an inferior article of American canned meats. With these, and a resort to fish, they manage to exist without their former feasts on “long pig,” the euphemism they used in describing barbecned missionary. Since this change in their bill of fare the world has had no in- terest in them beyond the product of their copra crop, mother of pearl, alligator pears and bananas. Sud- denly they emerge to the center of the stage in the re- newal of the controversy of the ages. Religious rancor has died away in the rest of the world. Its manifestations are merely sporadic. A Mormon is mobbed in a church in New York and the higher eriticism occasionally brings a preacher to book for heresy. But as he can be no longer burned | at the stake, nor have his finger nails pulled ‘out, nor people prefer to overlook his belief in an Assyrian origin of the Edenic legend rather than go through the motions of a trial that must end so tamely. So it is that 2 modern heresy trial is to the ancient like chasing an aniseed bag to a real fox hunt. The sects are becoming undoubtedly more Clris- tian toward each other, and even the Czar has Mited the heavy hand of persecution from the sons of Abraham, and his act has been warmly approved by the Pope. . It is therefore of interest that the real thing, has broken out in far Fiji. The missionaries of one Christian sect have succeeded in winning over a large | to impress their new brand by burning several hun- dred of the Bibles they had been taught to use and | depend on by their former religious leaders. This raised the religious gall of the faithful of the deserted sect, and they went forth armed with modern guns and ammunition to testify to their faith by shoo ing holes in the shack of the rival missionary who had superintended Bible-burning. When they reached the ministerial residence they were en- raged to find it empty, the missionary having fared to other parts to burn more Bibles. Then a near by volcano, that had been long dormant, woke and vom- ited fire and brimstone and cussed and swore in blue flame after the profane manner of volcanoes, and the pious war party is in doubt whether it was to censure them for not finding the missionary at home or for making a skimmer of his empty shack. | Whereupon they are troubled in mind. Their own | preacher is unable to interpret the volcanic epithet, the when they filled on “long pig” and had soothsayers | The net result threatens to be a general recession | of Christianity in those parts and a recurrence to the | former certain if simple ceremonies.

Up to this time he has hurt | no one except China, and it seems that China don't | count, but none the less the smaller nations of Eu-| Holland is particularly sen- | sitive to the feeling. Time and again her people have | was about to descend upon them with horse, foot and experience of the kind that threatens to become se- rious. The occasion for the present rumor arose out of a labor strike in Holland which menaced the rail- The Kaiser is said to have given notice to the Government in Holland that he would not permit ways. German commerce across that country to be inter- rupted, and that if railway traffic were suspended and German trade suffered he would hold Holland re- sponsible. There has been no proof forthcoming that he ever said such a thing, but the situation is| one that might easily induce him to say it, and that is enough to confirm the rumor in the minds of a sus- picious public. It is of course quite natural that the Hollanders should believe the Kaiser to be cager to absorb their country and their possessions beyond the seas. It is well known that he desires Germany to become a great commercial nation with a widespread colonial empire. As matters stand it is not easy for him to ! get to the ocean, nor to obtain profitable colonies when he gets there. The absorption of Holland would solve both problems at once. It would give Germany a front on the Atlantic and a® the same time place her in possession of the rich islands owned by Holland in the Orient. Such a prize is of course a tempting gwe, and the Kaiser is exactly the kind of man to be tempted by it. Consequently the Holland- ers are lying awake of nigkts wondering when the Kaiser will begin and whether Great Britain France would come to their relief. To make the matter worse there exists in Germany a mighty host of jingoes who have had training in history and philosophg and are much given to political speculation concerning the future greatness of the German empire. Those writers invariably in- clude Holland in the expanded and reconstructed Germany of the future and thus add to the irritation felt by the Hollanders whenever any issue rises that involves even the slightest conflict with their power- ful neighbors. Of course Holland could not hold her own against Germany of to-day as she held it against Spain in the days of old. It would no longer be possible for her to break her dykes and flood her fields to prevent the advance of a foe, and even if she did it would avail her nothing. Holland is, in fact, too rich and too populous to be “given back to the sea rather than to subjection,” as her brave burghers did of old. and | pen to know that Delaware is not the only State And there isn't | J {laking possession, despite the estate regulations, of The Kaiser would certainly have to fight Britain as well as Holland should he attempt the conquest, and it is hardly in his power to offer France an induce- ment sufficient to keep her still in case of such a war. It appears clear, therefore, that' an attempt to take Holland would result in a long war with two great nations and might involve the loss of Alsace and Lorraine. Kaiser Wilhelm lacks a whole lot of being a fool. He may share the common desire of the Ger- man jingoes to annex Holland, but he is not going to undertake it so long as France and Great Britain stand guard. When President Castro offered his resignation as President of Venezuela he probably wanted to show the world that he is able to juggle with an office that has cost many men their fortunes and lives. When he withdrew that resignation he evidently wanted to emphasize the fact that he is a law even superior to himself. B jects of discussion of late in several New Eng- land States and in Delaware. We have re- peatedly directed attention to some of the more in- teresting disclosures brought to light by various in- vestigations, and have now to note a new develop- ment on the subject. It isa plea made by a statesman of Delaware for what may be called “straight poli- tics” from a practical standpoint, and is too good to be lost in the shuffie of the general news of the day. | The Delaware Legislature had under considera- tion an act to repeal what is known as the “voter’s assistant law,” and the argument for repeal was that the law has been miade use of by bribe-givers as a| STRAIGHT POLITICS. RIBERY and boodle have been the chief sub- means of sending a man into the polling booth with | the voter, nominally to assist him, but really to see‘f to it that he voted as he boodled. The advocates of | the law opposed the repealing act-as a rule on good, respectable grounds, urging that it would be highly unjust to certain persons to deprive them of assist- | ance in preparing their ballots. There was one man, | however, who spoke the truth as he saw it, and in | so doing made a speech worth hearing. It is to be regretted that the whole argument has not been published for the instruction of all who did not hear it. We have to judge it by a single para- graph saved from the deébate by the Eastern press. That paragraph means more than many a long speech. It runs thus: “We have been accused of buying votes under thc operation of this law. There have been rumors of vote buying in the air in Dela- | ware ever since any of us can remember, and I hap. where votes are bought and money is spent at elec- tions. The voter’s assistant system again comes in] and commends itseli for fairness. It insures a de- livery of the goods. When I buy a horse I want my ! horse. When a Republican buys a vote he wants his | vote. T contend that there is no politics in the mat- | ter, for when a Republican or Democrat wants to buy a vote he has an opportunity of thus securing it, in- stead of being cheated out of it, as has been the case so many times in this State.” | Of course no one can approve bribery, but other- | wise the argument of the Delaware man is valid. Ifa| man is to purchase votes it is but fair to provide him | | with some means of knowing the goods are delivered. f It was shown in the Rhode Island investigations that bribery in that State is practiced under the name of | “paying a man for his time when he goes to the polls,” and of course under that title there can be no objection to letting an employet kndw that his em- | ploye is putting in his time and putting it in right. | What is good in one State under a crooked phrase | ought to be good in another under its right name. | Rhode Island and Delaware are small common- | wealths, but they are teaching the country a whole | Tot about practical politics, and would be justified in | writing upon their seals of state, “Little—but, oh, ye | gods!” A SCOTTISH LAND PROBLEM. UST as the British Ministers have about agreed with the Irish leaders upon a plan to settle the land question in Ireland by buying out the land- lords and selling their estates at a less price to peas- ant proprietors there arises a new demand for land on the part of the landless people of certain parts of Scotland, and it appears that attention will have to be given to it at once. The Scottish people have not the gift of eloquence like the Irish, and their demands for land are not ut- tered by impassioned orators heranguing tumultuous mass-meetings. Neither are they heard from mem- bers of Parliament filibustering for the sake of for- cing public attention. In short, the Scots have made no agitation of any kind. Their method of getting redress has been the simple one of moving on to the deer parks in the neighborhood, clearing up the land | and settling on it, refusing to get out or to pay rent. | It would of course be comparatively easy for the rural police of Scotland to drive the squatters off, but for some reason recourse has not been had to that means of dealing with them. The Westminster Ga- zette in investigating the subject obtained informa- tion that for the last twenty years the cotters in the island of Lewis—not in a body, but singly—have been such land as they required for building purposes and gardens. For this land they pay no rent, rates nor taxes. There are probably 2500 people living under such circumstances, and the thing has been going on so long and has spread so quietly that it has come to be the custom for anybody in those districts who wishes land to go and take it.” The Gazette adds: “The Highland Reform Asso- ciation, which was established some years ago, de- clares that the only remedy is to divide up the large deer forests, comprising the best land in the island of Lewis, and the large farms, comprising the best arable and grazing lands in South Uist. The Croft- ers’ Commission and the Congested Districts Board suggest emigration, to which the people reply that while so much land devoted now to purposes of sport is suitable for cultivation it is needless to talk of ex- patriation. The Deer Forests Commission scheduled over two million acres now used as deer and grouse forests as suitable for crofter homesteads.” A serious feature of the problem both in Scotland and in Ireland is the tendency of the peasants to sub- divide their holdings until they become too small to support a family. So long as that custom prevails and the younger generations refuse to emigrate or go to the cities in search of occupation there is bound to be something in the nature of over-population and distress. :Thus the Crofters’ Commission recently re- ported that the peasants ask that the big farms and Moreover, the Kaiser is too near and too powerful to be thwarted by such a means of defense even if it were resorted to. s The safety of Holland"lies in the concert of Europe. | manent adjustmen deer forests be subdivided, and then added: “We are of the opinion that this course.might with advantage be adopted to a reasonable extent, but the remedy would be merely a temporary palliative, not a per- MARCH 27, 190 {and Mrs, Charles Page, the groom's pa- | city. 3.

One of the events of the season will be the Tivolf’s “Carmen” of to-night, with Mlle. Zelie de Lussan in the title role. De Lussan's Carmen is pretty well known here and the impersonation is regarded by many as the best now upon the stage, not even excepting Calve. The handsome contraTto will be effec- tively supported, in chiéf by George Ten- nery, a new tenor from New York, as Don Jose. Mr. Tennery comes with many recommendations, his work for two sea- sons in the Castie Square Opera Com- pany being particularly commended. Among the smaller parts Arthur Cun- ningham is cast as the Toreador and from his splendid work as Alfio in the Mas- cagni “Cavalleria” should prove an ex- cellent exponent of the role. Miss Bertha Davis, the Tivoll soprano, will sing Micaela and the regular company will fill in the minor parts. The opera has been exhaustively rehearsed under Mr. Stein- dorft's conscientious baton and the or- chestra will be increased to twenty-five instruments. The chorus is also aug- mented.
