If tie French Government cannot lay

NICARAoUA CANAL BONDS.

There does not seem to be any consider
able opposition 10 a Government indorse-
ment of the bonds of the Nicaragua Canal
Company providing tie control of the canal
Is made secure in the Government. But the
people will not knowingly permit the oper-
atoms Of the Central Pacific Railroad Com
pany to lie repeated on any plea that the
canal is commercial necessity. The Gen.
trail Pacific Railroad Company have alb
sorbed the earnings of the railroad, built
with Government money, and have also op-
pressed the people of this coast with exorb-
tant rates Of fares. The Nicaragua canal
will be competing route against the trans
continental railroads If it is managed in the
interests of the people. If it does not cost
more than Sl0o.000.000, the rate of toll may
be low enough to enable vessels TO use the
canal in preference to all other routes. On
the other hand, the rates Of toll may be so
high that vessels will take the Straits of
Magellan or the Cape Horn route rather
than pay them. There should be no diff
Guilty in making the Government secure in
lis control. The act of Congress which
guarantees the bonds should contain cast
iron stipulations in respect TO Government
control Personal assurances go for moth
ing in matter of this kind. The owners of
fieient in the faculty of making promises.
When they wanted the people TO put up
money for the construction of the road, DO
guarantee against extortion could have been
suggested that would not have been given.
We doubt much if the canal advocates who
fud the Clayton Buwer treaty an obstacle
to Government ownership of the canal
strengthened their case before the people.
An ownership based upon such a fimsy
necessity does not commend itself to
the public. Under existing conditions.
il is perhaps better for the canal company
to direct the work of construction than to
turn 1t over to the Government But ii is
IS we'll for il to be understood at the be-
ginning that the canal company cannot
acquire such ownership of the canal route
as would allow its construction by foreign
capital. The people have an interest in all
the highways created by nations and no
private company can come in and take
possession Of one of them for its own
especial benefit When De Lssseps had his
Panama canal under way he was distinctly
informed that no foreign Government would
be permitted to construct and manage a
canal connecting the two oceans that bound
the American continent on the east and
west IL was also understood that foreign
private capital invested in the canal was at
the risk of its owner. In other words, for
eign Governments would not be allowed to
interfere with the operation of the canal
company under pretense OF protecting the
capital of their citizens or subjects The
Monroe doctrine that was held over the
head of De Lesseps applies with equal force
to the Nicaragua Canal Company. II
appears, therefore, to be to the interest of
the canal company to propose such specific
terms in respect to Government control as
win remove any well-founded objections to
an Endorsement of its bonds by the Govern
ment.

AFTER THE HORSE is STOLEN.

All but two or three Of the vessels fitting
out for Boring Sea having cleared, the Brit
ish Government has issued an order to the
effect that sealers going into the sea will do
so at their own risk. The modus vivendi
was agreed upon last year after the seaiers
had cleared for the sealing ground. No
sealer was supposed to have any knowledge
of the agreement until notified on the high
sea. Sealers had a per feet right to keep
clear of guDboats Of either nation and thus
remain in ignorance of the fact that their
sealers made good use of their time and in
the course of the season took about 10000
seals. If the modus vivendi had been an
nounced this year Immediately upon the
signing of the Boring Sea arbitration treaty
the sealers would have been notified in ad-
vance of sailing that they were liable to
capture. But the British Foreign Office
used up the greater part of a month in cor
resp0ndence on the moduS vivendi PROPOSE
ton. The sealers having got away without
knowledge that the modus vivendi has been
agreed TO, they are now about in the post
ton they were in last year. They will avoid
gunb0ats as long as possible and then excl
else their discretion as TO the chances of
capture il they pay no attention to notifea-
ton. The English papers call this triumph
OF British diplomacy. 1t is not clear that
they are not right The result is a larger
pOaching fleet in the Berng Sea this year
than last with no more chance of interior
ence this year than last.

BRITISH CHINESE

An Ottawa dispatch makes light of the
report chat Chinese in Canada are becoming
British subjects with the purpose of coming
into the United States on the ground OF
nationality. There is a treaty which per-
mits British subjects to come into the
United States, and remain therein. and
there is also a law which forbids the admis-
sion of Chinese laborerS without regard to
the port frcm which they last sailed or the
nationality they may have assumed. When
there is conflict between treaty and law
the people determine which shall prevail.
There is considerable money in the business
Of importing Chinese laborers, and persons
engaged in il are fertile in resources to
evade the law. The British natur alization
dodge is one Of the shallowest that has been
invented. 1t is extremely improbable that
the people Of the United States will permit
their settled policy in respect TO Chinese
immigrants to be set aside by clause in a
treaty that may be terminated at years
notice. The Canadian official who said
that he did not consider the United States
in any way called upon to recognize the So
called British subjects as anything else but
Cinnamon takes sensible view OF the
case The United States Is already given
trouble enough through the Cana law
which admits Chinese in payment of small
headtaX, without considering the PROPOSE
ton that all who have paid the tax can
march into the United States as British
subjects on taking the oath Of allegiance TO
the British crown.

elaborate and expensive formalities.
The rights of citizenship have not been so
guarded from instincts of Jealousy. Aliens
have been kept aliens from the feeling
that, however they may identify themselves
with the country OF their adoption, they are
apt to cherish regard for the country of
their birth which is inconsistent with the
exclusive allegiance which they owe to the
Government that protects them. 1t has
been felt that man cannot have two coun-
tries, and that tile citizen oil the world is a
Philosophers myth. The necessity of fill
ing up our empty places prompted the
United States, from the first organization of
their Government, to depart from European
precedent and to conceGe to the alien who
had not been long enough here to learn
anything about the country or its institu-
lions the same rights which were enjoyed
by the descendants of the Pilgrim Fathers or
the cavaliers Of Virginia. The present ten
dency is to reverse this policy. People are
minded that they can afford to be more
select in the choice of partners, and Mr.. Oates
bin, if it becomes law, will only be the
first step 20 sitting of the adopted Amerl-
cans of the future.

WHAT FOREIGNERS SAY.

The opinions of foreigners concerning the
American people depend largely upon the
size and character of the audience to whom
the opinions are addressed. If the audi
ence is large aud socially high the speaker
gives them taffy; if it is small and socially
low he gives them fits. Dickens "Ameri-
can Notes" would never have been written
If Dickens had succeeded in getting copy
right law passed that would have enabled
him to obtain royalties on his books. But
the spectacle of Americans on every side
reading his novels and not one of them
paying for the privilege was too much for
the great novelists philosophy. Dickens
has had numerous followers, and the end is
not yet This pursuit Of the American dol
