China has notified the powers taat
she can make indemnity payments
on gold basis only by collecting
her import duties in gold. This is
equivalent to doubling the import
duties and would tend to entirely
close the Chinese market to American
and European goods. The proposal
is rather embarrassing to the God of
Trade, and shows that China has
some diplomatic resources capable of
worrying the hungry hucksters and
grafters clamoring at her door.

The exploitation policy for thu
Philippines is being outlined. Brad
street says:
Stress is laid by the Philippine Com
mission in it's annual report or the i'm.
portance Of establishing gold standard
for the islands and Of making reduc.
ton Of at least rs per cent from the
Dingley tariff rates upon goods imported
into the United States from the islands.
Other recommendations contemplate the
establishment of banking corporations
empowered to issue circulating notes I'M
der proper safeguards, the repeal of the
provision prohibiting the holding an IN
terest In more than one mining claim. the
increase to 25 600 acres Of the amount OF
which may be held by individuals from
the public domain, the exemption from
taxation in the United States of bonds
issued by the insular government under
the Philippine act and the empowering
OF the government to admit limited
number OF Chinese skilled laborers into
the Islands.
Silver is the only money that can
be used in the Philippines, but with
q gold base the creditor can take a
larger amount of Filipino labor and
products in settlement of obligations.
Before the plan for establishing enter
prises there under cheap labor can be
perfected it is necessary to have a
clear road into this country and It
will be left to those interested to
decide what tile limit for Chlness
lsborers shall be. The American
laborer will after awhile be success
fully impaled. 25, 900 acres will be
ample domain for the industrial land
lords who will set up their little
provincialilies there, and with a fat
bank circulation and with tax exemp-
ton for bonds on Filipino labor and
producing possibilities when the
paper is repcsing IN the vaults at
New York headquarters, the situation
ought to be very gratifying and fully
demonstrative of the wisdom of our
colonial policy.

and the Juveniles conscience was elias

influence upon the hotel clerk and the
hostler that they agreed to don fancy
costumes and stand with crossed hal

the local justice Of the peace promised
to perform the ceremony in monks

TESTING METHODS

A test as to the value of news
paper advertising over other
methods was made a year ago
by the great publishing house of
Harper & Bros. Two books were
selected. one by a well known
popular author and the other by
an unknown writer. The latter
was selected for the newspaper
advertising and the other for the
usual channels.
With equal expenditure the
work advertised in the
newspapers outstripped the
other In sales by zoo, 900
copies.
The result was a complete sur
prise and established the fact
that readers go to the newspa-
pers for Information with regard
to books as well as with regard
to most other matters.-NationaI
