THE EASTERN MARKET.

Professor Paul Haupt, of Johns Hopkins Uni
verSity. made an interesting suggestion the other
day in paper which he read before the Orien-
tai Society. Heretofore the transactions of the
society have related chiefly to the study of
Sanscrit and the Semitic tongues. But, as Pro
fessor Haupt points out, the acquisition by the
United States of the Philippines makes the
study of the living languages of the Orient of
great practical value to Americans, and he
therefore suggests that the society shall make
q special study of them hereafter. But, after
all, the Oriental Society is only a select body of
scholars, and its work would not be generally
known to those who most need 10 know it,
namely the men who are to develop American
trade in the Orient. 1t is not merely that these
men are ignorant of any Oriental tongue; they
know nothing about the Oriental himself, his
beliefs, his preiudices, his tastes, his aversOns,
his weaknesses and, generally speaking, the
point of view from which he everything;
and until American business men have acquired
such a minute and detailed knowledge they will
not have much success in the Eastern market.
The scholars Of the Oriental Society might do
much to blaze the way in this direction but
business men themselves can do far more by
taking steps to establish at certain places in the
East what might be called commercial schools.
These schools would give to young men design
ing to enter the Oriental trade a thorough
grounding in the pecularitieS and difficulties of
trade in the East Such n course would be of
great value to the young men, because it would
enable them to command an extra high salary
as experts in field where there would be few
competitors But the benefit to the firms en-
ploying them would also be great for they
would be enabled to secure practical monop-
oily Of trade in the Orient for many years. When
once the way to the Eastern market has been
cleared the Self-lnterest of those engaged in it
each other In a minute study of the Oriental in
all his whims and moods. because trade Will
surely go to the house which possesses the most
comprehensive knowledge of the East
1t may be asked why this has not been thought
OF long ago if 1t is so obvious and the answer Is
because thus far Americans have not felt the
need of charging their market. But they do
feel such a need now. The action of the Adj
ministration in securing for the United States
the policy of the operdoor in China is proof of
that Already the Oriental trade is assuming
great proportions, and It's enormous possbili-
ties in the future coming anore and more to
be realized every day. With half of the coast
line of the United States facing Asia and the
Stars and Stripes floating over the Philippines
the Orient is no longer mere name TO Ameri-
cans. II has become one Of the elements in the
intricate problem of National life, and en-
1ighteDed selfinterest, to speak of nothing else
puts upon us the duty OF becoming acquainted
with the peoples who already our near
neighhors and are destined In the future TO be-
come closely related to by the ties of bust
ness.

TO GO TO CLEVELAND


Canton. Ohio. April 24-President and Mrs

at 1910 o'clock this morning In Difference to
the announcement of the Presidents friends that
ne came here for rest from public cares and to
look after private business no public demon
stration was arranged But in spite of this there
was large crowd at the station when the train
rolled in. and lusty cheers went up as the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Mckinley stepped from the train
An informal reception committee was also at the
station to bid them welcome. The carriages
were driven by the most direct route to the NJ
c. Barber home, where the party will be enter
tanned during the several days stay in Canton
The enthusiastic reception at the Canton sta
lions that occurred all along the route from
daylight until the train reached it's destination
In the early morning hours across the State
line in Pennsylvania crowds gathered at all the
small stations In Ohio crowds gathered at every
stopping place, and the President shook hands
with thousands.
Before luncheon at the Barber residence the
President. accompanied by Secretary Cortelyou
went to the old Mckinley cottage. in North Mar
ket-st, TO inspect the repairs and engagements
In progress. He greeted each of the workmen
with a hearty handshake and then with the
contractor, went over the work in detail.

THE PUSHCART LEGIONS.

The fruit peders In our streets have swarmed
and multiplied. 1t is perplexng problem to
consider how many of them are fed clothed
and sheltered when competition is so keen and
when their gains in each case must necessarily
be small. The remarkable increase In the
army Of pedlers has helped the poor In the tene-
ment districts and In other parts of the CITY
who can buy good fruit more cheaply than 1t
was possible for them to buy IT before almost
every block in town was visited so assiduously
and persstenty by the Wellnigh ubduitous
vendors. Perhaps there is annoying excess of
these petty dealers. and many of them are too
noisy. but the fact that such troops OF them are
moving about and that they seek buyers with
so much energy enlarges the sales of fruit In the
crowded quarters of the city to a wonderful ex-
tent
Hundreds of these street dealers are Greeks
and Italians numerous in their ranks
Among the sons of modern Attica and of the
Italian Kingdom a conspicuous percentage of
those who come to this country take mp street
vending. Not many of these pedlers bother
themselves much about voting, and therefore

patrolmen who are fond of showing their au-
thority and lording 1t over the poverty stricken
alien with unstinted abuse and frequent prod
dings of clubs. The average policeman likes
few things better than to drive away street
vender in wild alarm just at the time when his
helpless victim is on the point of making sale

pocket These. pedlers are compelled to take
ont licenses. They pay something into the pub

policemen and by every one else with justice

been so frequent and so inexcusable that the
Police Board ought to issue preventive orders.

Highly satisfactory is the news that the Sultan
of Turkey has made a decree authorizing the
rebuilding of American mission schools and
chapels and the construction of annex to
Robert College. That does not of course, atone
for the destruction of the former buildings, nor
settle the long deferred claims for indemnity, but
1t will enable missionaries and educators TO con-
tinue their work and II indicates the desire Of
the Sultan to remain good terms with the
United States. The act Is spoken of as a con-
cession, and such it really is, though it's quality
as such is to be appreciated only through put
ting ourselves In others places. Suppose there
were an organized movement TO convert this
Nation to Mahometanism. and a number of
Mahometan preachers and teachers came hither,
opened schools and mosques, and began making
converts. With all our boasted liberty of con-
science, should we not feel strongly moved
against them, and would there not be clamor
from some earnest Christian people for suppress
sion. forcible otherwise. of the propaganda?
Yet just we should regard such a movement
the Turks regard the incursion of Christian mis-
sonares into their country. The obvious moral
is of course, not that such missionary work Is
to cease, but that 1t Is to be conducted with all
possible tact and consideration for the preju-
dices and susceptbties of the people. That fact
is realized and acted upon by the most success
full missionaries far oftener and more fully than
by many of their ardent supporters at home.
1t seems to be characteristic of human nat
ure to want to do that which Is forbidden. Note
for example, the case of Ocean Grove. That
place was founded, expressly and VIGOROUSLY
as place in which there should be dancing
card playing other worldly" diversions. Yet
people who want to do those things persist in
going there. and trying to do them there. Why
are they perverse? There are hundreds of
other places just attractive as that. where
such things not forbidden. Why not go to
some of them. instead of singing out the
solitary place where they forbidden and try
ing to force sneak them in? 1t is no answer
to say that such practices harmless and
that it is bigotry for the Ocean Grove people to
object to them Granted that that is true; yet
If people want to be bigots, and group them
selves together in a place of their for that
express purpose, they acting we'll within
their right, and indeed far more correctly and
courteously, and actually more literally, than
those who seek to intrude upon them. 1t Is not
Ocean Grove that is bigoted, half so much as
those who seek to violate the rules of it's bigotry
