More significant, however, thar any
of these changes in the Ear East-in-
dustrial, commercial or even govern
mental, has been the educational revo-
luton of China In order to understand
the full significance of this change, ii
is necessary for us to recall for a mo-
ment the educational system of China.
The only avenue into positions of
influence in the nation was through a
series of competitive examinations be-
ginning at the district capitals, con
tinuing to the provincial capitals and
eliminating in the few remaining can
didates at Pekin. The result was that
the nation was absolutely at the hands
0 about 1000, 900 of the ~literati. Not
only had the form but the substance
of this system had continued up to
less than a decade ago. practically un-
changed in 1000 years. This was not
the most striking fact, rather than that
1000 years ago it was out of date.
Even then the one sole aim of teach
ing was to win men from the degene-
racy and get them to attain to a state
of education that was 1000 year out
of the times. No less than ten years
ago China had her eve fixed upon
the golden age of 1000 years before.
She was advancing backwards and
casting imprecautions upon the in
~sistent modernism that was forcing its
elf upon her. Here lies the explana-
of China's conservatism. For centur-
les ner great intellectual force had
been held with the menacles of schol-
asticism. For 1000 years her life had
been an intellectual Sahara. In Sep
TENDER, 1905, by an edict of her royal
Emperor, the entire system was with
in one day abolished throughout the
entire empire, and in its place has been
established the most modern system of
| education which the Chinese could dis
cover, namely the American system,
which has been established throughout
Japan. That date will at some future
time be acknowledges as one of the
greatest rates in the progress of the
human race. One that day one third
of the human race cast off the chains
that bound them and advanced 1000
years in their ideals. determining to
take their place in the van of human
progress With Americas educational
system as the model for China and
Japan aud 500 American teachers and
5000 teachers trained by Americans, in
the Philippines, who can doubt but
that the future of the far east and Of
American is to be indissoluably inter
twined.-F1etcher S. Brockman in Bos-

lHE MYSTERY OF
MARS EXPLAINED

There Is more trouble among the
astronomers. We can understand frie-
ton between the scientists whose en-
deavor is bounded by the contracted
limits of a single and rather inferior
planet. But men whose field of en-
terprise is the whole boundless uni
verse ought to get along amicably.
There is plenty of room, and it is all
at the top.
When Professor Lowell m%omentarily
abandoned Mars to NEEDLE with Sat
urn. which had already been extensive
ly staked out by his brothers astrono-
iners, we felt compelled gently to
ehlde him. But on Mars Professor
Lowell is supreme, and he should be
left in possession of his claim. His
latest discovery of water vapor on
Mars is important, and ridicule of it
deserves stern rebuke.
Pro- essor Lowell's detractors saw
that he is obsessed with the ideas
that Mars is inhabitoted by sentiment
beings. This idea they reject, assert
ing that that the temperature of the
planet is 20 degrees below zero, and
that life could not exist in that tenn
p~erature, a statement easily refuted
by many jewellers in new York fats.
The detractors also say that the pres
ence of water vapor, if admitted, wo uld
demoiish the carefully constructed
theory of Marian canals. If there is
enough water on Mars to show itself in
the form of vapor in the atmosphere.
why is a system if irrigation needede
Professor Lowell has not ha dtime
to answer this question, but the an
swer is easy, Granted that, according
to mathematical calculations, the nor
nal temperature of Mars is 80 degrees
below freezing, the sentient inhabi-
tants naturally require artificial heat.
This discovery of the water vapor
proves that they have it. Mars is
steam heated. The lines hitherto call
ed canals are water pipes.
The system that Professor Lowell has
made of them indicates that the in
habitants are steam filters, but the
work proves that the plumbers and
steam filters are poor mechanics, and
also indicates that these trades belong
to a higher civilization than has vet
been reached even on Mars which is
far ahead of our planet. The asser-
ton that Professor Lowell could not
possibly see the things on Mars that
he claims that he could through his
comparatively small telescope goes
or nothing. 1t is the man behind the
telescope that counts. The Lick OBJ

CUTTING OUT

The business mans "quick lunch at
noon is disappearing in the larger
cities, and business men are banding
themselves into luncheon clubs, where
piquant discussion prolongs the time
at table and lively wit a%cclerates al

in the East, and its source is hard to
&c Certain !, rni
of preaching about the wills of huilie |
eating could have brought it about.
A man who goes into a lil,ag room
with his jaws deliberately set in a de
termination not to hurry has as little
relaxation for the enjoyment and di-
gestion of his food as the man VINO
bursts through the door of a quick
lunch emporium. gobbles half a pound
of pie crust and rushes back to his
desk, wiping his mouth en- route. No;
it was another cause that brought this
about, just as it was something besides
temperance ranting that brought about
the temperance movement throughout
the country. Whatever was the cause
others will have to determine. Maybe
it was the feeling of kinship among
men who carry the commercial inter
ests on their shoulders. Maybe the
interchange of ideas and the quick
suggestions Of many viewpoints were
a decided gain to the lunchers. Maybe
it just grew up without any conscious
purpose or method, as many good
things grow up.
Under the stimulus of a friendly
hour many dreams are dreamed ard
many fair pictures of the immediate
future are drawn. Nor is it an expert
in municipal government that talks,
now an expert in some line of trade;
now a large githered, CHEEKY man who

STATE REGULATES WAGES.

With compulsory arbitration and the
wages fixed by the courts, the world
has become familiar chiefly owing to
the Australian experience, and still less
in any American or Canadian county
has any attempt been made to regu-
late wages by statutes or though of
fetal action controlled by legislative
"standards'' Canada, as our readers
are aware, has a system of semi-com-
compulsory arbitration-that is. that
prevents strikes in the public utility
field pending a governmental %investi-
gation-but beyond that the Dominion
has not thought of going.
1t is, therefore with great surprise
that the public learns of a serious and
apparently successful effort that is
now in rogress in Great Britain
very conservative country, in spite of
much evidence to the co~ntrarv-to es-
tablish minimum wage standards for a
certain class of industries, known as
"sweated MISUNDERSTANDING, artifi-
cial flower making and so on. A
complicated and remarkable bill for
fixing the minimum wages for such
industries has been introduced in the
House of Commons, and has already
passed the second reading.
The argument for the bill is brief
ly this-that in the sweated industries
the wages paid are often below the
standard of decency and public morals
and health and that the industries
themselves are largely of the sspara-
sitic'' order, and that if they cannot
be mended society would lose nothing
hxr nS.n hn., kka% ~
certain practices canno be tolerated
whether selfish employers find them
profitable or not; that c~heapness is not
everything, and that humanity and so
eial propriety cannot be ignored by
Legislators and statesmen, and that
the freedom of contract and labor is
subject to legislation in the interest
of the general welfare.
What the bill proposes to do is to
create the machinery for arbitration
iof wage disputes of the request of
either parry in the sweated industries
and provide for the fixing for min
imum wages for the employed. The
other industries. but it lis believed
principle, of course, applies to other
Industries, but it is believed that thher
IS no need of carrying it any further
at present. In the other industries
the conditions are not so bad that the
workmen will MT stand for it.
But the bill has vigorous opponents
outside of Parliament. These point to
the danger of establishing a prece-
lent for wages fixed by the courts
and officials, and to the addition rea-
son of doing more harm than good by
the measure. Employment is better at
any wage thar none at all, the argue.
and what would the state do for those
who are deprived of work by the actf
either because of age or the lack of
skill, or because of curtailed produc-
tion in the sweated industries. And
would not higher wages in these indu-
stries mean lower wages in some of
the other industries?
The adoption of the bill would com
INIT England to a novel and farreach-
ing economic social doctrine. 1t
would be a victory for the socialists
and radicals, who believe in minimum
wages for all industries

NOTHING FOR SOMETHING.

AS an evidence of what the country
gets for the increase from $4,000 to
$500 per year which the congress-
men have voted themselves, should
be studied the official statement sent
out to the daily press by the secretary
OF the Associated Press. 1t Is as fol-
lows:
Sir. l have the honor to inform you
that at the annual meeting OF The
Associated Press held this day the fol-
lowing address was adopted, and | was
directed to transmit the same to YOU:
Representatives Of ia daily news
papers gathered at the annual meeting
OF The Associated Press, respectfully
ask the president and congress to grant
Immediate relief from the eXactlons OIL
combinations of paper makers. In
September, 1907, and again In NoVem-
Der. 1907, the attention OF the author
tiles was directed to the excessive
prices then demanded by the paper
combination. Immediately upon the
assembling OF congress. twenty OF
more bills aiming to correct these con-
ditions and to put paper pulp on the
free list were introduced and referred
to the ways and means committee,
Persistent efforts to obtain hearing
have been refused. Dilatory tactics
have been employed to prolong present
conditions and to carry over to an
other session Of congress every prop
osition designed for relief. All news
papers here represented protest against
delay.
Attention is also directed to the
false reports Of news print paper prices
which were recently furnished to
congress by the director OF the census
bureau. The newspapers here repre-
sented use approximately so per cent
Of the news print paper consumed IN
the United States. We denounce the
quotations as submitted to congress as
misleading and unworthy of credence
The reiteration Of the accuracy OF these
figures of the director after the error
had been called to public attention
tends to shake public confidence an.
raspect for statistics thus compiled.

A missPENT LIFE.

A talented man possessing wealth
and the opportunity to accomplish
much good for his fellow men, has
lust died at Bedford, Iowa. His life
went out amid squalor. No friend or
relative was present to comfort him
in his illness or to perform the last
offices for the dying. This mans con-
dition and surroundings were OF his
own choosing. and his mode of life and
his wretched death the foolish burden
of a disappointed man.
For forty years DR., A. M. Golliday
lived the life of a recluse because or
unreouited love. He was educated,
cultured, proficient as physician, and
gained a large clientele early In his
career. He amassed fortune In few
wears and courted a Bedford belle, who
gave her affections to poor soldier
hov inst home from the war. Golliday,
disappointed, proceeded to demon
strate his unwortMness. A weaker
man might have sought solace in dis
sipation, squandered his wealth In
riotous living and gone to an early
grave mourned for what he had once
BEEN Golliday chose different
course, but one just as foolish ana
cowardly He neglected his practice,
and finally built cabin near his Of
III, q hiph
fence. and shut himself away from the
world. He lived with his books and
with regret for what might have been.
He Stunned both men and women, ana
grew slovenly and uncouth. He de-
generated. He gave the habitat of his
soul no greater attention than he did
that of his body, and died as he had
chosen to live, unloved and unmourned.
In his howell was found almost $751;
900. the remnant of his fortune.
DR.. GolMday threw away an oppor-
tunity to remain an honored and USE
FIJI citizen and to gain happiness in
doing for others. With his talents ana
his fortune JOY would have come by
devotion to his profession, alternating
the sufferings of the afflicted and re-
lieving the poor in purse Golllday
was a coward. The cell of monastery
would have afforded the desired seclu-
sion and association with the good
monks and the discipline of their lives
would have kept his body clean Even
the poison potion of Romeo would have
been a more manly death
Men are not justified in trying 10

their lives because the girl they love

pointment is hard to bear, but should
