A LATIN UNION.

In this day Of much talk about the
numerical decadence Of nations, II is
a surprise to learn that Italy shows an
increase beyond anything claimed for
other Latin peoples Twenty years ago
the official census showed a population
Of twenty-eight and half million In
habtants. while the census Just COM
pleted places the number at S5,0O0,0oo
This is an increase Of about % per cent
But the Italians do not all live in
Italy BY emigration they are scat
tered over the United States and South
America. to the number of five million
more, and great many of these win
return to the country Of their BIRTH
when they have made money enough TO
enable them to live at home In comfort.
The Italians are evidently not suffering
from the decadence that has attracted
so widespread attention in France.
There Is some speculation as to the
possibilities Of a great Latin union.
France and Spain are said to have be-
come very cordial In their relations.
lately. Were revolution TO break out
in the latter country, as seems not inn
probable, and II the republicans were
to gain the day. It is not considered i'm
possible that the two would be drawn
together Portugal might be willing to
join the coalition, and Italy would per-
haps also sever her present political
connections, from which she has de-
rived but little advantage and line up
with the nations 10 which she naturally
belongs. Such Latin union would be
a tremendous power. To the 6O,OOoOOo

Portuguese, or in round numbers, 1885,
100000 people. They would con-
troll the Mediterranean seaports.
They would own colonies in all parts
Of the world. and present united mill
tary and naval force equal TO any that
could be brought against them. With
German and Russian designs on the
Austrian empire, pan-Latin union
would seem to be the natural aspiration
Of the Latin nations. Somebody has
predicted the rise during the present
century Of a United States of Europe.
That might commence in such coall-
! ton.

1t appears plain that the bounty In
tended was one that would place our
own manufacturers at a disadvantage
with foreign manufacturers, The re-
mission OF Russla's internal duties does
not have this effect. It simply frees the
foreign exporter from special burdens
which are imposed In the home market,
and at most only places him on the
same level as our own manufacturer, so
far as taxation IN his own home Is con-
cerned. We remit taxes In precisely the
same way on exported sugar and on
other things, Surely no one can claim
that we pay export bountles, There
does not seem to have been any need
that Secretary Gage should decide as
he has done. The consequences are
most unfortunate. for We have justified
the Russian government In taxing our
exports of hundred times the value OF
the sugar we get from Russia.

Undoubtedly the episode is profoundly
to be regretted, but where does the
blame properly rest? The Dingley law
is mandatory. Il requires the imposi-
ton OF a countervalling duty on any
article upon which foreign governs
ment bestows, directly or indirectly, an
export bounty The Russian govern
ment vigorously denies that 1t is paying
bounty on exported sugar, but are we
to allow Mr.. De Wltte to construe the
Dngley law for us and define the mean
ing of the term indirect bounty?"
Who, then, is TO decide whether the
payments made by Russia do or do not
come within the purview Of the Ding
ley provision for countervalling duty
Secretary Gage has clearly answered
the question.

States has the monopoly Of the protec-

reminded by Russia that two can play
at the game OF hostile tariffs. as the i'm

which Russia holds the best cards.
Therefore she will win most OF the
