into difficulty, it comes to his aid, and
by bullying or buying the magistrate
before whom the case is tried, the
priests succeed in clearing their follower,
and in many cases causing injustice
to the other side of the trial.
In view of the frequency of these
trials in which French priests were in
volved, protest was made by the va
rious foreign consuls in Canton, with the
result that an agreement was entered
into by the United States, British,
German, and French Consuls, approx
ed by the Chinese Viceroy, that : i'll Ca
ses involving Chinese persons only no
ecclesiastic should be. allowed to inter-
fere during the trial except in the ms
tances of a religious persecution. This
agreement bade fair to check French
advance, and the.French Consul, under
instructions from the Governor OF Indo
China, withdrew from the agreement
and declined to further consider the
question. The proclamations issued by
the viceroy were then withdra En and at
the present time French priest attends
each Magistrates court looks after the
interest of any native claiming to be
a member of his church and who may
be registered at any of the Catholic
missions.
How Converts Are Protected
All natives registering in the
French missions are looked upon as
French subjects, the mere registration
being considered sufficient to place
them under the protection of the French
authorities, and the French Consul in
Canton has supervision over all such
proteges north of Anam and south Of
Swatow, a region the population OF
which may be nearly fifty millions. 1t
is stated that a native registering at
one of these missions is authorized, if
he gets into trouble, to enter suit as
ia member of the French Church,
do" ETC., when his case Immediately is
taken in hand by the priests, who, by
bullying tactics and threatening the
mandarin with deprivation Of rank and
loss of Office through the known Unfit
ehce of the French Consul with the
Viceroy at Canton, usually manage to
win the suit Notwithstanding the merits
of the case. The effect of this is to
cause much uneasiness among the ma
tives not under French sway, and in
several places small riots have occurred
in which many lives were lost and
much property sacrificed. The natives
being unable to get justice in the man
darins' courts, have taken matters lar
gely into their own hands. with the re.
suit that unless something is done to
straighten out their unfortunate condi-
tion very serious disturbances are lik-
ely at any time to break out.

France is constantly at work-extend
ing her domain and influence northward
from her present boundaries in Anan
and Cochin China The forty miles of
neutral zone which was declared few
years since, in an agreementwith China
made under England's demands, have
disappeared as barrier in every way
save name. 1t is doubtful, indeed, whet-
her any native living in this so-called
neutral strip now considers himself any
other than a French subject for he pays
taxes to and is subject to the French
authorities, and Chinese officials have
in no manner attempted to exercise
sway over the residents for at least
three years.
France has moved her outposts north
ward, until now she claims as her
sphere of influence territory almost to
the province of kwangtung, the richest
probably of the Chinese States; and is
even undermining, through the agency
of the Roman Catholic priests, the local
mandarins of many Of the smaller towns
in Kwangtung itself. The method thus
far adopted seems to be to commission
some priest as Deputy Consul, and in
all official papers allow him to aifix the
seal of the "Deputy Consul of the Great
French Republic" This influence over
the natives is particularly great, and in
the outlying districts about Canton the
viceroy of which province is more or
less under French domination, the effect
is being seriously felt. The foreigners
of other nations are not only chafng
under this indignity, but at the interfer-
ence with their personal and property
rights.
Claims of the Church For France.
The Roman Catholic Church claims
jurisdiction for France over the native
Chinese population Of Anam, Cochin
China, French Indo-China, and Siam,
all of whom have been accepted as con-
verts, and admitted to the Church 1t
further claims that this right of control
or government extends over these peo-
pie wherever they go, whether remain
ing in province of France, or migrat-
ing into China. The Church carries
this jurisdiction so far that whenever
one of these converts, so,called, gets

Probably the majority Of farm.
ers do not realize the importance
to them of the United States de-
partment Of agriculture. Large
appropriations are voted annually
by congress for the conduct Of this
department. 1t has many expert
mental stations, exec llently equip

and scientists devoted to their
work. 1t is constantly issuing
books, bulletins and circulars relat-
ing to every conceivable subject of
interest to farm life. These pub
locations are of great value to
practical agriculturalists, but il is
doubtful if one farmer in a hun
