the way OF votes cannot be determined,
but there Is no question that a favorable Inn
pression has been made In localities and
among class where II would not have ex-
isted but for the New York ers' visit. Re-
publicans have said that they feel that they
know Judge Parker better now that Mr..
oaks and Mr.. Sebring have spoken for him,
and they do not feel that the country will
go to the bad II he Ia elected.
This Is precisely the condition for which
regret is that the belief is not more general,
for they recognize that, IL II does nothing
more, II will dull the edge Of Republican
zeal and In doing this will lessen the effort
that this class would make to elect Roose-
welt.
There seems to be concession on the part
OF the Democrats that the Repu blicans In
this campaign, as In that Of four years ago,
have the advantage anon q the first voters,

Gratis will vote for Roosevelt. They say
that the President appeals to the younger
element more than an older and less ag-
gressive candidate, and for this reason there
is strong tendency Of this class toward
the Republican party in this oaInpaign;
While admitting the truth OF the Re-
publican statements, the Democrats say that

acter that appeal to tia young that are re-

EARTH FROM JERUSALEM,

OF the Orthodox Jewish Dead.

Several Hebrews make business OF
importing into this country earth from
Jerusalem, which they sell to orthodox
Jews at 81 a pound. The earth is placed
nv the purchasers in the collins Of dead
friends or relatives.
The demand for the earth arise 8 chiefly
from two causes. One is largely sentiment,
the desire OF orthodox Jews that their,
heads may rest at last upon the holy coil
OF Jerusalem. The other cause Is the super
stitution that TO place earth brought from
the Holy Land in the coffin OF the dead

About three years ago several reti red
rabbits saw that large profits were to be
made by importing earth from Jerusalem

donia was correct as to the commanding position of Wales Island tone of the two awarded to canada). It was quite true that from the fortress-like heights of that island 1t would be possible to pour shot and shell on all around within six or eight mics. But the only smoke like ly to issue from Wales Island was not the smoke of a big gun. but the smoke from the fsh-drying establishments to cure and dry the vast quantities of hali- but and other fish that frequent these waters. He saw no reason to fear any guns likely to be used from the two isI- ands given to the United States to shut up Port Simpson. The only Power that could do that in time of war would be the Power that commanded all the ap- breaches to it with a powerful fleet. This would be none the less true if the American islands were fortified. as there was channel to Port Simpson which was beyond the reach of their guns.

 Once there was rich mana very rich man-who wanted to do something handsome for struggling institution of learning.
 He called the directors together and said to them:
 "Gentlemen, propose giving your in stitution $5.oOO,OOO'
 "But,s they said, after they had re- covered from their surprise, it will be impossible for us to raise the s10, ,000 900 that will be needed in order to secure your munificent gift!''l
 You will not need to raise any $10,- 000," he replied; the donation will be unconditional"
 Then the money will be in bonds or real estate we presume. and we shall be allowed to use the income in erecting new buildings and paying running ex- penses?' they faltered.
 Not at all, responded the rich man. ''The gift will be in cash, to be used in any way you please. and when it Is all gone there will be another $5, 900, GOO at your disposal, gentlemen, if you spent the first sum wisely"
 The directors consulted together in whispers, and then quietly sent for an officer.

All the Canadians are not irreconcile- able over the Alaska award. For in- stance, Lord Dundonald, the command CT of the British forces in Canada, does not think that the terms of the award are likely to have any serious effect up- on the future of Port Simpson. Speaking recently at a dinner in Vancouver. he said that he had just paid visit of in- spection to the northern shores of the province. Among other places he had visited was Port Simpson, which was said to have been rendered useless as port because two little islands with unpronounceable names not many miles from it had been allotted to the United States.

THE IMPORrANT ARTTc,I .E

The State Department is correct, no doubt, in saving in it's explanatory statement regarding the new Ameri- can-Chinese treaty that the provision which interests most the public is opening of two new localities in Man churia to foreign trade" In the present disturbed conditions of a practically disputed sovereignty in that part of the world it will certainly be of immediately surpassing interest to us as to others to watch the consequence of the carrying out of this provision. But the provision which is of the most practical im- portance to us as a commercial nation and it should be borne in mind that this is definitely commercial treaty -is that contained in Article ", which in the State Departments statement is not specifically mentioned at all.
 By the terms of this acticle ''the Chinese Government, recognizing that the existing system of levying dues on goods in transit, and especially the sys- tenn of taxation:known as likin, impedes the free circulation of commodities to the general injury of trade, undertakers to bandon the levy of likin and all other transit dues throughot the empire" in return for which concession ''the government of the United States con sents to allow & surtax, in excess of the tariff rates for the time being in forces, to be imposed of foreign goods import- ed by citizens of the United States and on Chinese produce destined for export abroad or costwise." The surtax fixed for imported merchandise is one and a half times the effective five per cent. import duty, as provided for in the pro- tocol of 1901"
 How great is the practical benefit offered by this provision cannot, per- haps, be So we'll understood in the Unit ed States as in Mexico, where till lately burdens similar to likin taxation were imposed on internal movement of goods, or in France. where the petrol imposts are in force, to the great harassment of
