LABOR IN GERMANY.

Even the German sugar beet raisePs
are not free from labor troubles. Al
though the rate Of wages has been
gradually rising, 1t does not attract a
sufiicient number of laborers to supply
the demand.
Several OF the German papers have
lately discussed this serious question.
The beet growers are, in many places,
restricted to small areas OF cultivation,
because sufficient labor cannot be Sc
cured. For some years these growers
In planning for the work for the COM
ing year, have regarded the labor sup
ply as the most important item in their
estimates.
In the eastern provinces of Germany
laborers from Russia and Poland have
been employed. but they have never
given satisfaction. For the last two
years the beet growers have been look
ing to the north Of Italy for laborsrs.
The need Of laborers has. during the
present year, been so pressing, the
growers have now taken measures to
consolidate their interests. and send
agents into Italy In order to secure.
next year. an adequate supply.
Perhaps Minister Damon will meet
some of these German agents. while he
Ia visiting the homes of the northern
Italians.
Our planters. 1t appears. have been
supremely blessed" In the past In OBJ
tanning labor supplies. 1t is only now
when these blessings take their
fight that they realize the bounty
and almost the extravaganza OF the
world. in dealing out to them abundant
and cheap labor. While the German
farmers. in thickly settled country,
have measured the areas OF land to
be cultivated, by the extent Of the la
Dor supply, our planters have merely
opened their mouths, shut their eyes
and the immigration god has fed them
with a spoon. overlooking with Asiatic
labor.
This period OF felicity has naturally
prevented them from seriously con-
sIdering any question OF labor supply.
The annoyances OF the American farm
ers who have been compelled to even
put their wives and children into the
fields: the perplexities Of the German
beet raisers In calculating the area Of
land that the labor conditions would
permit Of cultivation, have not been
known to our fortunate planters. who
merely lifted their fingers and an army
OF Asiatic workmen sprung from the
ground.

A JAPANESE BOOK.

The japanese have made a valuable
ouatribution to the literature Of In
tsrnational law. Sakuye Takahashi.
Professor Of Law In the Imperial Ma
Val Stan College Of Japan. has pub
alshed q work entitled Gases on Inter-
aational Law during the Chino-Jap-
uaese War"
AZ the beginning Of that war the
Japanese resolved to put themselves
abreast Of the Europeans in observing
the generally accepted rules governing
the relations Of nations. in war or
peace. The contents Of this book show
how thoroughly they have adopted
European precedents, and abandoned
their own traditions.
Ono Of the. remarkable features Of
the Jsoanese radical departure from
ancieok, European and American ways.
vas ~. abolition Of the right Of the
capAaes Of vessels in war upon the high
aeas. to share In prize money. This
they did several years before this right
Was abandoned by the United States.
for II was not until last March, that
Congress passed law forbidding the
distribution Of prize money.
The absurdity of the American law,
which. until now granted prize money
to the captors Of war and mercantile
vessels, but gave nothing to the cap
tors of lands and cities. was illustrated
In our war with Spain. Admiral Dewey
at Manila. and Admiral Sampson at
Santiago destroyed or captured Spanish
fleets. They and the crews of their
ships are entitled to and will receive
prize money for these captures. and the
Admirals will be made comfortable out
o. their shares. But the officers and
men, who fought at San Juan and have
been wading up to their arm pits in
the swamps OF Luzon and have cap
tured many towns, are entitled to no
prize money. Relatively. there Is gross
injustice in this. The exposure Of the
oDuubClo " uohiPS, uhoSaSV uhu "io-
comfort, was more severe than the ex-
posture OF the sailors.
In former days the soldiers reward
was found in permitting him to sack
or loot the houses of the conquered
people. but open and lawful l0oting Is
now forbidden. The letters from SOL
diers in the Philippines concede that
some property is carried of from the
captured towns. but there is no money
n It.
The law which awarded prize money
to the sailor was. after all, an insult
to his patriotism. 1t assumed that he.
commander or Jackie, would do better
fighting II he saw any money in a
scrapple. This assumption was true.
when crews were secured by the press
gang. and the commanders vera court
favorites. That this idea should exist
% long In our own navy is evidence
Of the strong force of habit and Gus
