A FOOLISH IMPERIALISM.
San Francisco Call.

San Francisco Call.
For years past the leaders 5f France
have been perplexed by the stagna:i1n
Of the population. While British. Ger
mans and Italians are multiplying
around them. the French make hardly
any increase at all in numbers. some
Of their authorities take such gloomy
views Of the situation as to conclude
that the race has no future, that it is
dying out and that the soil OF Franc
Will pass into the hands o: a more fruit
ful people. Even while confronting such
a probability as that, however. the mod
ern spiri: Of colonization and imperial
agFrandizement has so affected the
French leaders that it IS now seriously
proposed to encourage the emigration
Of the people and thus further diminish
the population al home.
One Of the lands in which the French
have expended a good deal 9f their ef-
forts at imperialism Is Madagascar.
Thus far, however, they have accom-
Dlished little beyond the military con-
quest Of the country. Ther= has been
no French migration TO the island. and,
indeed. the people seem 70 care very
little about prohting by the acquisition
their goyernmen; has attained for them
at such an expense Of blood and treas
ure. In order to make some profit out
of the venture It is now proposed that
French soldiers after serving in the ISL
and shall be induced 10 remain and take
up lands, thus becoming permanent
settlers, and as a means Of tur;herlng
the scheme French women ar. 70 be
encouraged to emlgra,e to become the
wives Of the settlers.
1t Is reported that the plan was Or
iginally recommended by General Cal
iiani. who is in command at Madagas-
car. Soldiers are sent to the island for
a three years service, but all who viii
consent to take lands and cultivate
them are to be exempt from service in
the ranks after two years. The solder
has the right Of selecting for his farm
any vacant land he chooses, and he
government feeds and clothes him for a
year just as If he We're still serving with
the colors. The Inducements have been
sufficient, II is said. TO bring about a
considerable settlement, and It is be-
lieved that many more would accept If
only wives could be furnished as well
as farms. It is for that reason the
