Tile CONCERT OF INFAMY.

A few days ago the foremost members OF the
British Government were Indignantly denying
in Parliament that they or that the Concert OF
Europe" favored the Turkish cause against the
Greek The very hint of such Il thing. they
passonately declared, was libel. equally pre-
posterous and atrocious The sole desire of the
British Government and Of the great Powers
was to keep the peace, to do equal justice he
tween the contending factions In Crete. and to
restore tranquility and prosperity TO that much
vexed island. That was what they said. The
daily news since then has told what they are
doing 1t Is news which the strict censorship
established by the Powers permits to be sent
out and 1t is published in the most authoritative
organ of the British Government. wherefore it
may be unhcsitatngy accepted as not unduly
colored in the Greek interest.
This news indicates that the fleets or the
Powers are not by any means maintaining an
attitude of impartaty toward the fighting fac
tons in Crete. When the Moslems are in the
ascendant sacking and burning Christians
houses and Staying Christian men. women and
children the big armaments lie 'as idle as IA
painted ship upon painted ocean But let
the Christians get the upper hand for moment,
and nut their foes to flight in fair battle, and
the decks are instantly iol h''l'i' nv
big guns are trained upon the Christians with
deadliest aim and served with utmost zeal.
When the Bashi- Bazouls disregard the laws
OF war and fire upon flags Of truce the admirals
look on without concern. If not with approval.
But when the Christians, vanquished by the
shells from the Camperdown's giant guns, strike
their flag, stop firing and retreat. the allied
fleets only quicken their fire of shrapnel upon
them as II in sheer lust Of slaughter.
These are not the Incorporate accusations or
Greek partisans They are the sober facts
stated by British correspondents under leave OF
the ccnsors Of the great Powers. They convict
the Powers. beyond all hope Of exculpation, OF
deliberately siding with the Turks against the
Greeks, of shielding Bashi-Bazouks in their
nameless nfamics. and of deliberately opposing
and depressing the Christian Crctans in their
gallant struggle for liberty. They set the great
Powers down. beyond dispute. as the allies,
abettors and assistants of Turkey in the lat
ter's last ferocious attempt TO subjugate Euro
pean Christians to her barbarOus rule They
give TO Great Britain, moreover by no means
the least conspicuous place in the concert or
infamy. 1t will be seen presently how the Brit
ish people regard such dolngs. If they can stand
such deeds as those of the Camperdown TINS
week. they can stand any degree of humiliation
and disgrace.

WHO PAYS TILE TIRIIFR

A canny Scot writing In that induDlfaDle or
gan of British political orthodoxy, "Ihe ST.
Jamess Gazette, gets pretty close 10 the heart
of the "tariff-is-a-taX" question He reminds
his readers that the essential difference between
Free Trade Great Britain and the Protectonst
countries-that Is all Others-is that the former
lovles a tariff on what II cannot produce at
home and the latter on what they can produce
at home If il were true. then as the Golden
ite-cect vehemently declare, that the duty IS
raid by the consumer, there would be little 10
choose between the two systems But II, as this
writer Is convinced, when duty-paying import
has to meet the competition Of domestic
product, the duty is paid not by the consumer
but by the foreign producer or importer, there
is a vast difference between them. If this latter
hypothesis be true, the exporters Of Great
Britain are contributing enormous sums 10 the
revenues Of other countries. which contribute
little or nothing in return to British revenues.
In the last twenty years British exports-exclud-
ing those 10 British colonics-have amounted, In
round numbers to $1jOOOOO0,OO0. If only 10
per cent OF that sum--a low estimate-was paid
In duties out of the profits Of British manu-
facturers, the British contribution 10 the reve-
nues Of foreign countries has been 81 500 900 900
And In the same time British consumers have

rOPCJCV NAVAL SURPRISES.

Another of those little surprises when the
National Legislatures Of Europe have had
sprung upon them of lat, and which have start
Oh muttcrjucs of alarm among the Ministers
of various European nations came the other

q credit of 500 600 900 francs SlGOOOOOOO) FOR
the construction Of forty-fve large warshps ana
ia torpedo- boats i'm the interval before 1903.
II was only few days ago that the German
Emperor Jumped to the conclusion that his navy
must equal that of France, and with his usual
lmpctuosity he asked for credit of 32s,3'o.ooo
marks ,S7S. sos. OOO) with the intention of max
Ing an Increase in his fleets insiantcr. 1t IS
observed that the request Of the French Minis
try is for about double the amount asked FOR
by Germany; and perhaps this is due to the
admitted fact that the building resources OF
France are such that she could build two bat
tlcships to Germany's one. And right here
little computation might be suggested. 1t was
brought out In the debate In the German Reichs-
tag that the warship building resources Of Ger
many are not equal TO the demand proposed; ana
If France can build only two ships to Germany's
one. how would France meet the demand upon
her shipbudng works in order 10 carry out the
programme. 1ernapS SOME Vi 'hc 'oH'ih'tS
would be given to foreign builders:
These naval propositions would suggest that
France and Germany, at least, have been per-
suaded by the school Of alarmiSts that the
peril of the situation in Europe Is increased by
the assumption that the future naval war will
be shortly and sharply decided And this proph-
ecy receives a little force by reverting to the
struggle between China and Japan.
The proposal of France Is TO eXpcnd about
500 1000 year on new warships for the next
eight years. which sum really falls below the
estimate OF the British Admiralty Of about S35,-
600 600 for the present year. As 10 the ability IF
England to turn ont new construction faster
than other nations. one need only recall tho
number of works that she has or better. To
take the comparison recently made that she can
build and equip 100 war vessels while France
builds So Russia 81. the United STATES ~ and
Germany IS But England does not depend sole
" upon the products of her royal dockyards; If
she did her naval supremacy would be AT an end.
This is shown by the record Of 1896 for OF the
II $40 tons Of warshps nine private firms turned
out 36.5lJ tons Only few weeks ago France
was Oh the eve Of ordering warshps from Eng.
land because her own yards were fully Ell
gagged Perhaps she still has this scheme in
mind All this suggests this question: Is the
arbitration sentiment or the desire for war
growing stronger!
