HANNA and BARRETT

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator Han
ma has added his protest to that of the
japanese Minister to the appointment
of John Barrett as Minister TO Japan
Hanna objected to the appointment on
political grounds. He told the Presj
dent that Barrett had always been a
Democrat until 1900, and that he had
been amply compensated for all the
services he rendered the party during
that campaign.
Washington. Dec. 9.-Kogoro Taxa.
hira, the japanese Minister. called on
Secretary Hay at the State Depart.
ment today and asked many interest.
ing questions about John Barrett,
whom II was officially announced
wound be appointed Minister to Japan.
Minister Takahira was the soul Of po.
likeness. His questions. nevertheless
regarding Barretts age, diplomatic ex.
'perience. prominence in American pol.
itics, etc. were such as to convey to
Secretary Hay In the most delicate
manner imaginable that Japan would
much prefer the appointment of some
other man. Minister Takahlra did not
go to the extent of making protest
and gave Secretary Hay to understand
that II Barrett we're appointed his Gov.
eminent would make no objection. But
the hint was sufficient.
cablegram was sent to Barrett
some days ago asking him II he would
serve at Toxic. Another cablegram
was sent today, II was understood, in.
dicating to him that declination OF
the proffered honor would relieve the
Administration of some embarrass.
ment. Secretary Hay said today after
the interview that he did not under
stand why a young man with Barrett's
fine position should wish to change
for the comparative obscurlty of the
japanese mission.

The First Newspaper.

From the New Orleans Daily Picayune.
There has been considerable controversy
of late years as to which country should be
conceded the honor of printing the first
regular newspaper. Claims have been sue
cessively put forward for Italy, France.
Germany, England and Holland, and all
with some degree of FEASIBILITY but 1t ap-
pears from recent researches that neither
one of these is entitled to the distinction,
and that precedence should be given to Bel
GUM. 1t has been established by the anti
quaries that certain Abraham Verhoeven
of Antwerp obtained in 1905 from the
Archduke and Duchess Albert and Isabelle
the privilege Of printing a news sheet. AS
the first German paper appeared in 1915 at
Frankfort, the first Dutch paper in 1917,
the first English paper. tn Weekly Gazette,
1t would seem that Antwerp's claims have
initiated what has become one of the most
! ress. On the strength of this 1t Is proposed
to hold a great tercentenary celebration In
Antwerp some time during the year 1905.
1t would be interesting to compare the
primitive efforts of the journalist Of 1905
with the immense sheets of news which the
world calls for today. Three hundred years
ago news travelled but slowly, and each
community was, in a sense, isolated. But
today If some potentate of Central Africa
condeScends to sneeZe the world wants to
know just what caused the Utilization in the
regal nostrils, and wants minute particu-
lars at that.

A Textile Novelty-Germany's.

From the Scientific American.
A new industry has recently been started
In Germany which offers considerable pros
poets and possibilities; that is the wood
pulp or cellulose tissues made by the Pa
tentspinnerei Actiengesellschaft at Ait
damn near Stettin. The spinning Of wood
pulp or celluose is the patented invention
of Gustav Turk, manager of the cellulose
works at Walsun on the Rhine, and the
well-known inventor DR.. Carl Kellner of
Vienna.
II 1t is taken into consideration that the
process itself is considerably cheaper than
the usuaf method of making yarn, that
even the shortest animal or vegetable fiber
can thereby be easily spun into yarn and
that the price of best quality of wood pulp
is only about one-third of that of ordinary
cotton, the advantages and possibilities of
this process are evident. Doubtless yarn
made according to this process will in the
future replace to considerable extent
woolen linen. cotton and especially jute
warns, especially in the cheaper grades OF.
tissues and for such tissues. where pliability
and handsome color are of main import
ance.

There no struggle occurs for preservation
because Of over-population. Rather is the
struggle for existence in the face of ele-
ments which tend to destroy species. only
through the exercise Of expedents Of mu-
tual aid can life be maintained Out Of
this statement grows kropotkin's general
declaration respecting all life. He recog-
nizes that the part played by the individual
is highly important, and that 1t cannot be
ignored in any comprehensive survey Of the
social condition. But he confines himself
In this connection strictly to the single
theme of mutually of effort and leaves the
tndividualism of nature and society for
future elaboration. His work is scholarly
and valuable addition to the thought of
sociology, and offers substantial reasoning
to support its declarations and deductions.
THE LETTERS OF DANIEL WEBSTER; from Doc
uments Owned Principally BY the New i Ha mp
Tyne, PhD., Senior Fellow in American His
tory unysssty Of New York
Ballantyne Sons.
No satisfactory edition of Webster's let
ters has ever been prepared prior to this
publication. His son, Fletcher Webster,
issued a volume of correspondence in 1856,
but 1t was only fragmentary and badly ar
ranged. Later another work appeared, sub
ject, however, to many criticisms. The
present editor has sought to profit by the
omissions and errors of these former works
and, having access to by far the most val
liable portion of the Webster letters now
preserved, those in charge OF the. New
Hampshire Historical Society, he has been
able, with contributions from the cohec-
ton Of Mr.. C. P. Greenough, to offer what
is perhaps as comprehensive and valuable
an edition Of the correspondence as is now
possible. 1t contains letters to as well as
from Webster, the former throwing light
upon his personal relations particularly
with his farmer friends, whose epistolatory
styles are literally reproduced. In this re-
spect the present edition is more satisfac-
tory than it's predecessors, which sought
to polish those letters and thus robbed them
of much of their distinctive value. The
edition Classics the letters according to
periods and general subjects of correspond
ence, and not in strictly chronological
sequence.

SHARES ITS PROFITS.
A Street Railway Run on the Coop
Grafton Plan.

From the Toronto Globe.
The adoption of a practical system of
profit sharing by the street railway COM
pany of Vancouver Is an experiment that
will be of interest to all who watch the
development of our Industrial system. The
Independent, weekly published In the in
terests of organized labor In Vancouver B.
c., gives report of an address by Manager
Buntzen of the street railway company to
a mass meeting of workmen, which was
also addressed by President Mahon Of the
Street Railway Mems Union of America.
The meeting shows the harmonious rela-
tionsfip existing between the street railway
company and its employees. The company
has voluntarily decided that the regular en-
ployes shall receive as their share OF It's
profits one-third of the amount available
for dividends after the ordinary share hold
ers have received 4 per cent. This means,
as estimated, that at the end of the first
year each employee will receive about $50,
at the end of the second year the share will
be about $50, and In five years it will be
500 The men will receive the standard
union wages Manager Buntzen says that.
In his opinion, the increased interest in the
company's welfare on the part Of the en-
ployes created by the new system will add
so much to the company's success that the
shareholders, as well as the men, will gain
by the innovation.
The employees proportion Of the profits
will be divided equally among them, all be-
ing considered as units in making the COM
pany's business a success. In addition to
the voluntary concession, the company pays
as high wages for every class of work as
are paid by other local employers and, gen.
orally speaking, higher wages. The COM
pany also makes certain concessions in the
way of uniforms, light and transportation,
that employers in other lines of business are
not in a position to grant. 1t is customary
to look for rocks in the way Of all such in
dustrial experiments. Men do not work for
low wages nor under unfavorable conditions
voluntarily, but because they are forced to
do so by the conditions Of the labor market
The model employer, the man who volIn-
tartly does more than he is forced to do be-
cause he sees that there is something wrong
and that the men are entitled to more Is
worthy of all honor. One Of the difficulties
Of such a scheme is that employment with
him acquires economic value which the
worknen may be forced to pay to middle
men OF Intermediates. But 1t is time
enough to look for such trouble when It be-
gins to develop. good relationship and a
feeling Of mutual interest have a value
which cannot be accurately estimated in
dollars and these have been secured already
by the Vancouver Street Railway Company
We may learn some day that an honest de-
sire to do right can cure most of the indus
trial evils Of modern society.
