perhaps, they desire the continual society
of their own race.
Men of great depth of feeling are en-
gagged day by day in studying this great
problem of city life in it's different phases
Some of them, like Bishop Potter, tell
us it is created by, and presents its most
dangerous influence in, the prevailing lust
for money. Others tell us that out of it
will one day come those blissful condi-
tons, arising from greatly increased
trade and commerce, when the toiler will
have brought to him all that is need
full for his physical and moral existence
without having to sacrifice those bles-
sings which the Irish peasant covets
who finds the superior prosperity of his
English fellow workman to possess no
charm for him. Each of our social doc
tors presents his own remedy; but the
problem still remains with u.s. And who
will say that it is any nearer solution
today than it has ever been since the
condition of woman in the English coal
mine or in the English factory forced
the law to step in between the industrial
toiler and his taskmaster?
All we know about how this great diff
ficulty is to settle itself, if it is ever to
be settled, is that it's settlement must
come from either Of two sources; the
action of society in the aggregate
through the agencies of the law, or the
cooperative action, of good men and
women who have the disposition and
ability to mitigate the hardships which
are attendant on the lives of the poor
in the great city of today AS the prob
lem now presents itself, we can do lit
tie more than wait for the time when
the masses themselves who flock from
the country to the city will understand
how much they leave behind, and will In
sist that something shall be done which
will not leave them wholly deprived of
the natural blessings which they sur
render when they take up their homes
in the cities.

cargo passing through the San Juan sec
ton of the canal It has heretofore been
supposed by the public that the only con-
cessions in the way Of the Nieara te1l
canal were those of the Maritime Canal
company and the Cragin-Eyre syndicate,
both American companies.
Forward Bros. own the Atlas Steam
ship company and the Caribbean and Pa
cific Transit company They have the
exclJ sive right of constructing railways
and establishing transportation facilities
in Nfcal aqua
They own the only. railways in the
country, except the government railway,
and are trying to buy that. They own
the only boats on the San Juan river,
and their rights are exclusive to construct
tramwayS to avoid rapids and obstruc-
lions in the river
1t hardly seems possible that our gov
negotiations without being aware of this
concession. 1t would, of course, be nat
ural for the company to keep mum and
let the government go ahead until it
found itself obliged to buy up the con-
cession 1t is easy enough to obtain such
concessions in most of the Spanish-Amer-
lean republics. A little bonus in the right
place will do it. Usually there is not much
said about it at the time. That may ac-
count for it's having been overlooked by
our government. If the report is cor
rect, it raises a very interesting ques-
ton. It has been minated before
that the entire route of the proposed
canal is paved with similar concessions,
ell of them for sale-of course, at an
enormous price.

a NEW COMPLICATION.

The following Washington dispatch ap-
pears in leading Canadian paper. and.
while the substance of it is in itself almost
incredible. its explicit statement of details
gives it all the appearance of being
founded on fact. We quote as follows:
Washington, Jan. 11-Great Britain has
irtimated to the government that she
must reject the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
in default of an agreement to protect the
interests of her citizens.
This refers to the fact, rot heretofore
disclosed. but confirmed by the testi-
mony of United States Consul William
B. Sandersby, at Greytown, that the
great British shipping firm of Forward
Bros. obtained from Nicaragua, in Sep
TENDER, 1887, a thirty-year concession Of
Il monopoly in transportation on the San
Juan river, from Lake Nicaragua to the
Caribbean sea.
Unless this concession is bought or an
agreement made to pay British holders
royalty, the existence of the monopoly
will bar the United States of ownership
of the isthmian canal via the San Juan
river until 1927.
Tie British company can demand roy
atty on every vessel and every ton Of

For AMERIcAN SHIPPING.

While the present ship subsidy bill is
far from being satisfactory-even to the
length of being extremely Objectionable
it is still quite evident that a bill
framed along intelligent and equitable
lines, would be eXpedient. The question
and farmer?" is easy enough to answer.
1t would fill TIE shipyards with worlmen
When there is employment for ALL there
is plenty of ready money. When men make
money, they spend it and thus the farm
ers are benefited because they find am
pie markets for all their produce. We
pay $2GG, ,0O0 a year to foreign ship
owners for carrying our freight and pas
sengers. If we could carry that COM
merce ourselves, it would mean that
much more money in circulation in this
would not be greatly to the advantage
of every business man, laboring man
and farmer in the United States? More
over, it would be likely to result through
IhcredSeu competition IN reducing ocean
freights, perhaps Is per cent AS the
Minnesota farmer gets for his wheat
the price paid in Liverpool. minus the
cost of freight and handling, it is clear
that any reduction in freight will raise
the price Of wheat and other products in
Minnesota That is what an intelligent
and equitable ship subsidy would do
for the country.

SOME TALES OF THE STAGE

When Sandol Millil1en was rehearsing
for the late lamented play THE Spright-

studio of a famous French artist in New
York seeking the elusive quantity called

greatly admiring the paintings, enthused
about the fine work of the artist The
wife looked bit bored. ooh, yes, he
paints WELL" she said, "but then he has
nothing else to do!'

wise to heed and put into effect by strfn

well, if his message can be accepted a
