THE INVITATION.

The Terms are broken, we now are free; No longer shall we suffer The insults that for years were met From each Canadian duffer. Though Uncle Sam is not saint, At least he is not n noodle, So now we'll all expectorate And whistle Yankee Doodle. Yankee Doodle make your bid, This Province lies so handy; Fork out your tin and take us in Yankee Doodle Dandy.

If, perchance, a strike should be ordered
on the Great Northern railroad, its in

than is generally supposed. There Is al

a plan to apply to farm labor the sys-

Heretofore the farmer has been exempt
from labor agitation. but IL this railroad
strike should peTmeate the Northwest il
is very likely its influence would extend
to the agricultural districts as wvll.
Hitherto the farmer has looked on labor
agitation with great complacency. but his
own experience is evidently near at hand.
The farmer, too, is In more helpless

YOUNG AMERICANS ABROAD.
No Longer Find It Wise to Get Educa-
ton in European Schools.

If we knew little about the older
generations of American men, we GER
tainly know less about the young
America man; it almost seems to us
as If he did not exist, for he but rarely
comes to England. He occasionally
goes to Elton, or perhaps for q short
time to one of the universities, but
Americans are beginning to realize
that man net only gains little but
loses much by being educated out of
his country, among traditions and Gus
toms which he does not understand,
for which he has no sentiment and
from whose influence the whole of his
future life must separate him. There
is no advantage to an American boy,
who is to go back to his country and
remain an American, to come over
here to school, while the implied SUI
periority of an English over an Amer
lean school is a slight on his country.
There seemed a possibility few years
ago of American boys being sent to
England to be educated at some of our
public schools, but the fashion has
changed, probably because the patriot
ism of America could not tolerate its
young men being brought up under
foreign traditions and associations.
The American young man is mostly
seen, so far as foreigners are con-
cerned, at German watering places,
and no one would admit more readily
than his compatriots that he is not
seen there at his best. The life of
German watering place does not de-
velop the finest qualities of either men
or women, and where there is nothing
to do but loaf about" a young man
does not shine.-Lady Jeune in Col
lier's Weekly.

A Policy Of Extortion.

Colonel Arciniegas, bearer of special
dispatches to DR.. Herran, the Colon
bian minister at Washington, states
that his government will not take less
that $25,O00,00O for the Isthmian
right, while it will insist that
the canal strip shall remain "a part
of Colombia" which probably means
that Colombia will insist upon jurisdic-
tional powers and interfere with the
necessary American police control and
guardianship of the right of transit
from sea to sea.
Arciniegas declares that the sem
timent in Colombia is that the United
States will gain more out of the con-
troll than Colombia and, therefore, 1--WE
must look out for our own interests
which means to the Colombian states
men that the gouge game begun last
spring will be continued progressive
W They now demand nearly Aye
times as much as they at first init
mated they were willing to accept for
the canal strip rights. u tse
This is an extra binary example of
greed. IF our government declines to
be gouged, the Colombians say they
will wait and when the French COM
