New Zealand is a busy country. and there are few experiments she is afraid to try. Her latest legislative exploit is to pass a preferential tariff act imp"s- ing a duty of twenty per cent. Un cer- tain classes of articles now on the free lis: when from countries outside the British Empire and adding fifty per cent. to the existing duties on other classes. The bill provides for reciproci- ty with countries that make conces- sions to New Zealand's products. On the following articles outsiders will hereafter pay twenty per cent: Bicycle parts. gas engines. oil engines, rubber boots, iron and steel cordage. sheet, bolt and bar iron. printing paper, railroad and tramway rails. sailcloth. canvas and duck, and surgical and dental in- strunents. The following goods pay fifty Ter cent. additional when from non- British territory: Basket ware, bicycles.

HEn DIsrREss DECREASING.

The plan to decrease emigration from Ireland by making that country bet ter place to, live in seems sensible, and it is being assiduously carried out. The Irish Agricultural Organization Society has shown the farmers the value of the cooperative system, and in consequence $50 companies have been formed for the preparation and marketing of dairy products. The net result of this movement alone has been an increase of 30 per cent. in the annual income of every farmer connected with a dairy association. The society has also gone into the banking business and now controls two hundred banks, where the tillers of the soil can de- posit their earnings and from which they can borrow money in small sums and at a low rate of interest. Similar ly, along other lines, the material pros- perity of Ireland has been enhanced. The manufacture of lace has grown to something like its old time proportions in communities where it once greatly fiourished. By furnishing work for young men and women at good wages the promoters of Irish industries are solving the emigration problem by the easiest method. They are making it worth while for the youth to stay at home and to contribute their energies toward the up5uilding of the country.
 Ireland is not nearly as distressful as she used to be, and that her distress may continue to decrease is the wish of all her admirers and sympathizers.

royal palace. The Princess Louise and King Alfonso have thus far been prac- ticaliy brought up together.
 There have been several eligible suit ors for the hand Of the young woman, and the fact that none of them has re- ceived any encouragement is considered convincing evidence of an understand ing with the royal family of Spain. While there is no formal engagement, or at least none has been announced, it is believed that Alfonso and Louise have been pledged to each other since they were children, and that their mar Tiage will take place as soon as the king is nineteen years old.
 The Countess of Paris is very rich. Her estates are valued at several mill lions of dollars, and of course she will give her daughter a handsome dot, which is needed by the royal family of Spain.
 The economy practised by the queen regent in the royal household, of which the people of Spain complain so bitterly, has been due to her anxiety to save money for her children and to secure handsome marriage portions for her daughters, as well as a good income for her son in case he should be deprived of the crown, as were his father and his grandmother. Out Of the allowance made by parliament for the royal house. hold during the last sixteen years while she has been regent she has succeeded in saving sevral millions of dollars, which is carfully invested in stock of the Bank of Spain, in French and Eng fish government bonds and other gilt 1 edged securities.
 The king now has a private fortune of about two million dollars, which he owes to the thrift and thoughtfulness of his mother, who has been hoarding carefully for his benefit. Her expenses have been small. She has spent little upon dress, has bought no jewels, has indulged in no extravagances, given no entertainments, and never gone any where, so that now, when he comes into the full possession of his power and marries a rich wife he will be able to live in a manner befitting a king Washington Star.

 ''The tribunal, in answer to the re- quest which has been made, declares, in accordance with Article ". of the protocol of the 7th of May, 1903, that i the English language is recognized as the official language of the proceedings, but in accordance with the exact mean ing of the said article arguments may be presented in another language only with the permission of the tribunal; that the tribunal, by the decision just pronounced, has admitted. within the limits indicated by this decision, the French language as subsidiary, since 1t IS familiar to the members of the tribu- nal and to the majority of the represen- tatiVes of the parties"
 Both Judge Penfield, the solicitor of state, who made an excellent impress sion at The Hague, and MT. Bowen were highly gratified by this decision. MT. Bowen said that it was a victory of high importance to the English-speak- ing people, for it established a prece- dent which would be observed undoubt- edly in future Chicago Daily News.

YORK OF SWITCHES.

The law business seems to be good in Kansas City and around it. Upon the closing of the last term there were 51OS law suits pending in the circuit courts Of Jackson county There are 195OOO people in the county. Every law suit has at least two parties. Therefore about one in every seventeen of the population is involved in litigation. If we should include in the estimate the cases in the criminal court, the court of appeals and the United States courts and the minor cases in the police court, the county court, the probate court and in the courts of the justices of the peace, the percentage would be so high as to make it appear that almost every- body was either being prosecuted, sued or was suing somebody else.
 The Kansas City Journal explains that a large proportion of the litigation in the circuit court is incited by the activity Of sni:ches. Personal injury suits constitute nearly eighty per cent. os the eiockets os the various divisions of the circuit court. Relatively few of these cases come to trial. The corpora tions, to avoid irritating trouble and ex- pensive waste of time, seek relief in compromises. Who the plaintiffs are or

Like disk of the ruddy gold I saw the Red Star gleam; The Read Star, the gypsy star, That roves in the roads of dream; Across the empty years He flung his spendthrift store, As Roniany plays with handfuls bright, In the shade of the low tent door.

AN AsroNlsHlxe HEHELArIoN.

AN ASTOSJSHIhG EEpELAIIOHs
 That Is astonishing talk which is made by MT. Garvan, assistant district attorney of New York, concerning in- surauce swindles in that city. MT. Gar van asserts that at least 90 per cent of the claims of fire losses settled in New York by public insurance adjusters are fraudulent in one form or another. By these frauds, dishonest adjusters have been able to retain at least 30 per cent. of the amounts collected from the insurance companies, and have been reaping harvest of about s6OO,OOO an- nually. This estimate is credited by the president of 8 large company, who says that the companies have been paying out about ss.OOO,0OO annually for New York city losses, and it is safe to say at least 30 per cent. of the money paid to adjusters for their clients has been retained by them on one excuse or another. A confession by one Korn- field, who has been convicted, shows how the ''rake off" system worked. On a claim of s31o paid by the insurance companies, Kornfeld kept $160; out of $45O, he kept j$25o; out of $27s. he kept $19S, and others in the same general way. Adjusters made up claims for much more than was right, so that the persons suffering fire losses were satis fled, and in some cases there was prac- tically no loss whatever.
 We'll, well, New York is indeed bad place. The insurance swindles are no better than the Wall street swindles, and not half as finished.

what the cause of action is they, as a rule. do not know. The negotiation for a settlement is invariably done by the attorneys snitches-for the plain tiffs. The stitches do not rest their hope for recovery upon the merits of their cases, but upon the unwiliingness or in- ability of the defendants to leave their business and go into court.
 Gentle readers who are not quite cer- tain that they know what snitch is can perhaps profitably spend a minute or two in studying a dictionary.
