Stuart and Thaddeus Merriman, who have
had charge of one OF the surveying par

since Dee. /, 1897, have arrived here en-
route to Washington.
Mr.. Stuart says; Personally, am a
strong advocate of the Lake Nicaragua
and San Juan river route There is an
other scheme on foot to follow the San
Juan river from Lake Nicaragua east for
so miles to Cachucha rapids and then cut
a ditch l02 miles long to Greytown. The
latter is an ambitious scheme and while
it would be a good route prefer the lake
and river line,
"The people of Nicaragua want the
United States to construct the canal

the matter"

From the recent report OF Consul
BedlOe, stationed at Canton, China, to
the department of state some interest
ing facts are learned bearing on the
future of American trade with China.
The cTowding out OF American kero-
sene by Russian and Javanese oils was
made the subject OF a former report by
the consul, the chief advantage the lat
ter have being in the matter Of freight,
though such Is the superiority of Amer
lean petroleum that Russian and Jaw
anese oils are frequently put up in
packages similarly labeled. This lat
ter practice seems TO be growing, and
German and Japanese goods are often
palmed off for the superior American
article. Consul Bedloe also points OUT
that the territorial concessions in ChinaI
obtained by Russia have already be-
gun to influence trade, and the pub
lished text of the alleged agreement
between the Russian and Chinese gov
ernments shows that the latter has
agreed to charge one-third less import
duty on all Russian goods entering
China through TO Manchuria than ON
goods imported from other countries
In addition, all Russian goods are to be-
charged less transit dues than those of,
other countries, the two concessions
virtually giving Russia a preferential
trade relation with China that win en-
able 1t to defy all competitors, espe-
cially after the completion Of the great
Siberian railway. Aside from petrol
leum the other articles of American
trade likely to suffer most at present.
are -four, piece goods, machinery, etc.
American tradesmen also, according to
Consul General Goodnow at Shanghai!
do not seem to understand the import!
ance of certain matters in relation TO
Chinese trade. The two chief obstacles
the consul general notes are the not
| filling orders exactly, under the errone-
GUS impression that anything will do
for the Chinese, and secondly the lack
of arrangements for speedy settlement
OF all claims for damages through
breakage, etc.-a matter in which,
American tradesmen are at a disad,
vantage as compared with the English
or the Germans.

do their full duty in an emergency as
matter of business makes their acuon
none the less heroic. Professor Nasse'

or. was crossing a snow-bridge in the
Alps a few weeks ago, when the pro-
fessor and one guide fell into creVas Sc

lieve the intolerable strain, the leading

appeared into the depths. The others
were then able to pull Nasse up, buu

Eighty per cent. of the men In the
| United States now worth one huhdreg
! thousand dollars and more have risen
| from the laboring classes" This float
| inc statement can hardly be verified
by exact figures, yet it is likely TO be
quite within the bounds of truth. ASK
the first ten rich men you meet how
many dollars they had at 81, or when
they pushed out into the word; prob
ably eight OF the ten will reply that
they were empty-handed, and depend
ent on their own eXertions. Perhaps
they were office boys, chOre boys, news,
BOYS. or the like; the foundations OF
their fortunes were laid in small earn
ings, small savings, small spend1ngs.
If not too modest, they might add that
they worked upward by making them
selves useful-in some cases ind1spenS-
able-to their employers; and that by
deserving the confidence of others they
ACQUIRED confidence in themselves. But
always there was personal force exer-
cised, coupled with clear intelligence.
But how many of the ten have won
their wealth by fair means? How many
by crooked practices by cunning fraud
or cruel crOwding? This Is another
and more serious matter. Some men
become rich by enterprises which in
crease the common wealth, and by ere
ating Industrial opportunities for 9th
ers. confer vast benefits upon mankind
Some get rich by impoverishing their
fellows, and making it harder for thou
sands to win honest bread. Does not
the same, to a degree, hold true of our
smaller possessions? The question of
honest or dishonest getting is behind
the poor mans dollar as well AS back
of the rich mans thousands The char
alter of men cannot he measured by
their success or failure in money-mak-
ing. Nevertheless, there is a crafty
ing and hopeful outlook. 1t Is found
in the fact that only a small percentage
of our population acquire large wealth.
Millions who begin with little or moth
ing are living In comfortable compel
ence on the means gained with credit
to themselves, and without injury to
others.
