But, to illustrate i 2, this: An American concern—plant at Elizabeth, New ersey—extends its business by building a new factory on the St. yrence, Canada. The reason for this: It’s cheaper to freight, via Champlain canal to New York, than to transport overland to the same point from New Jersey. O trade last year with Japan alone was $79,000,000. When the possible trade with China is added, it will be seen that our Oriental commerce deserves the same fostering that we have lav- ished to make trade with Europe. In these days of war and rumors of war, it is well for the producers and merchants of the United States to put forward/their interest in peace and conciliation. Every other interest is to the fore. Missionaries are heard from _twice to the merchants’ once. Commerce goes into a country to conserve and not to disturb. It is always an influence for peace. Yet, missionaries, who of necessity aggravate the governments to which they go, and must be a disturbing element, get instant atten- tion from their Government, while the claims of commerce wait. Merchants suffer from antagonism for which the missions are re- sponsible, and often appeal in vain for relief. If no white men but merchants appeared in China and Japan for the next fifty years, they would be years of peace and trade expansion. Let our commercial interests reflect that war cannot force our goods upon the Orient. An invasion of China in her present defense- less condition is in the interest of our‘commercial rivals entirely. It will be destructive of our trade and beneficial to theirs. The policy of John Hay was the vehicle upon which our commerce should ride into China. That policy, accomplished by the finest diplomacy, was offensive to Europe, and there is a general desire among the Con- tinental nations that we shall abandon it and substitute harshness end severity to an extent that will cause a permanent alienation. Against this American merchants should be warned. It is idle to gay that Continental Europe would impose against us preferential tariffs and propose a concert of nations to shut out our trade from their own jurisdiction, and at the same time be amiably indifferent to the expansion of our commerce in the Orient. They know well that such expansion depends upon peaceful and friendly relations with China, and will leave no trick unturned to prevent such rela- tions. We should play our own hand, not theirs- OUR EUROPEAN AND ASIATIC TRADE. UR total trade with Spain and Portugal is $34,000,000.

Finally, after sev- enteen years of ceaseless toll I was amply rewarded. A Grand Jury law was passed. I went home happy. I had helped to do something to protect the rights of the people. “In order to see how the thing worked the people of my own county, where the agitation had been fiercest, had a Grand Jury called, and I was the first man in- dicted.

Consequently speculation has been rife and gossip has hinted many strange things. McClure’s Magazine tells the wonderful story of those two years of struggle against starvation and sickmess and cold and storms; two years of wearing effort to live and accomplish what no man has yet done, ending in disappointment and a second year's imprisonment, caused by the wrecking of his ship and the failure of the relief party to put in an appear- ance. He hints In his narrative at othes things which happened above the circle and which probably could happen RO- where else. He brought back the most re- markable photographs which have ever been taken in the Arctic, and his story is illustrated with these, most of which were taken by moonlight during the long six-months night; the taking of each one of them meant personal suffering and stern endurance on his part. Now that his story is finally to be ‘made public, Fiala is not so adverse to talking of his trip and of his plans for the future. He has just married, but so great is the fascination of the pole for a man who has trled for it, that he says he Is going back for one more attempt, Which he is sure will be successful. «But it will take me three years to get ready/’ he sald; “last time I went in a hurry; time for preparation was lacking; there was little opportunity for picking and choosing the men; and, after all, the failure or success of an Arctic expedition depends on that very point. I would rather have sailors, working at CALLING HIM DOWN. “While I is n't namin’ no names and don’t aim to be pussonal in muh specifi- cations,” sald good old Parson Bagster, during a recent sermon, “I is bodaclously impelled to request a certain worthy brud- der to yuhafter please be & lettle mo’ economical wid his vociferation. It am all right to soah aloft to a reasonable height in pra’r and praise, but when a man sings so volcanically dat he drowns de choir plumb out and causes de con- stable to come uh-swaggerin’ round after he thinks de free fight am all over, and prays so loud and numerous dat de Puh- sidin’ Blder 'nominates it a ’sturbance radder dan e supplication, it am sho'ly 'propriate for dat anonymous brudder to take a tuck in his vocality. De frivolous deems it funny, de devout am shocked, and de sick and conflicted in de neighbor- hood am ’'sturbed of der rest; and it 'pears to me dat dat zealous but elabor- ate brudder am elected to turn off his breath 'stid o' blowin' it out.” “Yassah! Yassah!” doggedly replied Brother Shinpaw, the culprit, rising in his place in the midst of the congrega- tion. “But I wants yo' to un'erstand, sah, dat’s I's a free and unlimited moral agent. and has de right to worship de Lawd accordin’ to de indications of muh own conscience, sah!” “Yo' sho'ly is, muh bruddes,” replied the clergyman, “and yo' also most sala- clously has! Whuh we differ in de mat- ter am on de extent of de longitude to be puhmitted in de stretchin’ of yo' con- science.

An anecdote, hitherto unpublished. con- cerning Archduke Francis Charles, father of the Emperor of Austria, appears in a new book written by a retired diplomat, says the Vienna correspondent of the London Mail. During a walk alons in the Styrian hills the Arcaduke got into conversation with a talkative farmer, who, after giving a good deal of information about his own family, suddenly asked the Archduke: “What's your father?” “Emperor,” was the answer. “Look here,” said the farmer, “if you ‘want to be funny don’t you shout. There are gendarmes about, and you might eas- ily get run In for lese majeste! 1 dare say vou've a brother. What's he?” “‘Oh, he's an emperor, too.” “Well, you're a funny chap,” said the farmer, laughing heartily. “Have you any children?” % “Yes, thank God; there's my boy, Fran- cis Joseph.” “What's he?” “Emperor.” “Ha, ha!” roared the farmer, digging the father of emperors in the ribs. "HIVO‘ you any more sons of that sort?” ‘“Yes, a second called Max.” “Isn't he an emperor?” “Yes, he is also an emperor.” After 1elieving his feelings by giving a wild leap In the air-the farmer clapped the Archduke on the shoulder and said, “Look here, old friend.

You want your companions, in a venture for the pole, to be of the sturdy stock that accepts everything as a part of‘ the day’s work: that will conquer rough ice and the breaking of sledges with the temperature 40 degrees below Zero as stoically; as it will cling to a | stanchion on a TStormy night at sea. There are such men: I had one or two with me om the last trip: I want all of that sort if I go again, for they might make it possible to reach the p “Nansen so constructed the Fram that she rose with the pressure ice, instead of crushing to pieces the way our owr boat did. But Nansen was working along dif- ferent lines; he believed that if he drifted with the ice he would be carried across the pole. He was mistaken, but the Fram went farther north than any boat :'hich Wwas ever nipped in the ice up i there. Nansen didn’t dare go far from his ship, but my idea is that if one could drift with the ice so far it would be com- paratively an easy manner to sledge to the pols, keeping constantly in touch with the ship by wireless telegraphy. That | would be simple; the sledge party could carry only a receiver, as the sending ap- paratus is very heavy, but if the ship sent & message at high noon each day the man in the fleld could fix his own | whereabouts and that of his base. Nan- sen had no such arrangement, and he didn’t dare to push on In the sledge to the pofe. as he probably would never have found hisPship again In that white mass of drifting ice. Had he been able to push lstl’alght ahead I think he would have : made the pole, as longer sledge journeys { have been accomplished. Figure on your | sledge trip as you may and you can't carry anough provisions to get you from the known land to the pole and back again.” ‘When asked how he had achieved such a success with his photographs, Flala sald: “I did not make the mistake that all of the others have made, of loading my cam- era under shelter. The difference in tem- perature between the Interior o the shack and the air outside has a very bad effect on the films. I always loaded my camera out of doors, although It meant the loss of the skin on my fingers each time; but I was assured it was worth while to bring back really good pictures of this land. That plate, “The America’s Last Mooring,” which appears with many others In the McClure article, was ex- posed for an hour and a half. Whenever I was an)‘w‘gro near the camera I had to hold my breath, as it would have been immediately caught by the film with dis- astrous results.” Fiala tells of narrow escapes from death in his story in McClure's; of his continued struggle to reach the pole; and, strangest of all, how that little com- | munity, left to themselves in the frozem north, split into two parties, and of these things he does not care to speak oft- hand.

He does not mind it much, how- ever, as he is becoming accustomed to the hard knocks of the world.

To the Editor of The Callk “A veritable human document” ig- deed, that “remarkable poem” sent to The Call from Manila and published ia the issue of the 1éth inst. Its pathos is tear-compellin its tragic sugges- tiveness is horror-inspiring. Not for many a day has there been clothed in language more dramatic, the soul- agony of one enduring the torment of an earthly—a real hell. That compo- sition, obscure though it be in origin, will live. It is at once the vivia re- flection of the dual nature of a hu- man soul—the divine and the devilish; and an agonizing wall that the latter triumphs over the former In sheping that soul's destiny. Rendered by an | accomplished reader who rightly ] caught its drue spirit, that poem. Mr. Editor, would afford Scope for rare dramatic effect. Its writer. exiled as he be, in the tropic wilds of the Philip- pines, deserves the sympathy of all soulful souls. JNO. AUBREY JONES. San Francisco, February 17.
