so CANADA Is KICKING.

To the average American. who has heard much
about the Wanted unity Of the British empire especially
since the solemn days of the South African dawned
upon it. the report that the colonies likely to be
"up in arms" over Joseph Chamberlan's proposal to
tax all parts Of the empire for naval and military de-
fence will be read with something like incredulity.
The IDEA that Canada for instance into whose forti-
fcatons, both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts Great
Britain has put millions of dollars should become con-
vulsed with storm of indignation" over the sugges-
ton that she help defray certain proportion that
cost is something that seems both incongruous and IN
grateful.
But the whole fabric of the British empire has certain
elements of incongruty, when it comes to that The
colonies, including Canada largely in the position

This is a form of Imperial federation" that seems
to the onlooker trfe sided. Just how long Great

JOHN ALIENS SUCCESSOR.

From the Washington Post.
 Poet and humorist com bined Is Repre- sentative Candler, of Mississippi. The burden of his song is the Tombigbee River-not a poetical name, but invested by Candler with all the attributes of sweetness and light.
 Mir Candler besought the House to spend a few dollars improving the Tom bigbee River. Not only Is it one of the oldest rivers in tine country, according to Cander, but 1t has been traveling the even tenor of it's way ever since it was discovered. If 1t can only be opened to commerce. there will be no trouble to navigate it, for" according to Candler, there will be no storms to disturb, no ice to block, and the slvery moon will light up the crystal waves by night and the dazzling sun will lend It's transcendent rays by day"
 MT. Candler told the House that "the river moves as when the red man trod its banks, and lies like the sleeping beauty of old, awaiting the magic touch of im- provement and progress to awaken it to new life" MT. Cander appealed for the magic touch; but the House voted against him, and the crystal waves of rae Tom bigbee win not dash against the prows of commerce.

TRUSTS THAT CLASH.

From the New York Mail and Express.
 When it comes to offering bonuses to promote business in Great Britain. the American Tobacco Company is not to be outdone by any Imperial Company It has met the offer of the latter to dis tribute a50,000 a year to its customers, if they will agree not to sell American goods for term of years, with an an- nouncement that it will remit It's net pro- fits for four years and give 9200,000 with out imposing any invidious requirements upon the customers. It seems to have been trying to gain a foothold in the British market by legitimate means and has been resisted by the English trust" not merely by reduction of prices which 1t could stand, but an effort to induce tobacconists to refuse to buy the American goods at any price. This can hardly be called flair trade" and 1t Is doubtful whether 1t is good business" This is line in which competition Is bound to make its way, and the tobac- conists of Scotland and Ireland are al- ready refusing to make any agreement with the London company Those of Eng land are likely to follow suit, If they find there is more money in dealing with the American concern. Practically all tobacco used in Great Britain Is imported and consumers are not likely to care greatly whether 1t Is sold there directly by a domestic or a foreign corporation. The cheapest and best will get ahead.

they desire to hold all possible ad. vantage against the long future, ai- though it Is exceedingly improbable that the country's sugar needs can ever be supplied at home.
 There Is another aspect of the case that deserves consideration. The larger the concession on Cuban sugar and tobacco, the larger will be the concession by Cuba on American goods-on American rice, iron, steel, coal. lumber, cotton goods and the like. Shall we at the dictation of the Oxnardites throw away a trade that promises in the course of few years to rise to $20O,OOO,O00 a year?
 General Wood will render a good service by talking from the shoulder as to Cuban needs and Cuban expecta- tions. Europeans now control the Cn- ban market, although 1t Is almost with in sight of our shores, when reasonable concessions on our part to the Cubans could drive them out and hand over the entire trade of the island to this country.
