THE Marquis of Fontenoy writes
that Japan's emperor will likely
visit Europe and the United States
next year, escorted by a magnifi-
cent fleet Of war ships and mer-
chant vessels composed in part Of
trophies of the recent Orient
al war. If the Pacific is crossed by
the royal part brief stay will most
likely be made in Hawaii. The
emperor and his associates take a
deep interest in their people now in
these Islands. How japan has
raced ahead. Twenty-eight years
ago the Mikado was invisible to all
but officials Of his palace at Kioto.
His ministers were permitted to
secure his instructions only from
behind a screen which concealed
his features. If he happened to
pass through the streets every one
was compelled to remain PROSTATE,
with face to the ground, under
penalty of death. The last three
decades have, however, worked
marvellous change in japanese
ideas. The Toxic police have been
compelled to issue regulations in
sisting that the people should doff
their hats and stand aside when
the Mikado passes through the
streets, so familiar had his presence
become to his subjects.

ONE of the bright writers of the
Chicago Herald has taken up
the subject Of cholera. He says
that should the plague invest the
United States from this direction il
would be coming from an entirely
new route. The starter for the
three epidemics the States have had
has come from Europe. Primarily
the pilgrims carry the disease.
Cholera has never yet originated
outside India. 1t has always been
traced to Bengal, and the back track
of every epidemic leads to the spring
gatherings of half a million people
at Hurdwar. Ernest Hart, editor
of the British Medical Journal, never
fails an opportunity to urge upon
his Government sanitary reform in
India. He says: by rigorous in
spection of all pilgrims leaving tina,
country, by prohibiting pilgrimages
when necessary, Great Britain car
wipe cholera off the face OF the
earth, for no other infectious dis
ease is so easily managed as chol-
era"

In REMARKING on the statement
of the United States Governments
financial operations for August,
Bradstreet says: "The figures,
when they appeared, indicated I'M
favorable conditions, though less SO
than for July. Receipts were S2S,
o52 600, a decrease as compared
with August, 1894, of about $II,-
500, 600, though they were only
$144, 900 less than in July. The
expenditures were $32, 5SS, 1874, an
increase of Se3I,54s over the re-
cord of August, 1894.

IT WAS anticipated that the chief
danger to the country in the ad-
vertising line would be at the hands
of local correspondents of foreign
papers. This is what one of them
said under date OF September 10th,
after the epidemic was we'll in con-
troll, when natives were right at the
front in support of the Board of
Health: at is predicted that unless
the disease abates or some change
is made in its management the ma
tives may revolt and resort to riots
and incendiarism. OF course
there was not at any time the slight
est justification for such state
meut as this.

ONE of the physicians on the
Board Of Health has stated, ofhci-
ally, that he is unable to find re-
cord OF prohibition Of transit Of new
goods during even a cholera epidem-
ic. This should be enough, taken
with the trade exigencies Of the &C.
casion, to warrant an allowance OF
traffic again. 1t is well of course
for the Board to be cautious in
health matters, for it has response
bility in that field. However,
nothing short of a general breaking
up Of everything can serve as apre-
text or cause or reason for suppress
sion of business. 1t is pleasing to
see that the Board is now disposed
to be more reasonable, more con-
siderate of commerce.
