The announcement that the Rus
sian government is arranging for a
loan of 100000 from British cap
ftalists is significant of changed con-
ditions in European politics. The al
lance between France and Russia long
gave preference to French money
lenders whenever the st. Petersburg
government required funds. The bulk
OF the money needed for the war with
Japan was raised in Paris, and the re-
luctance of the French financiers to
continue their loans, in view of the
Russian disasters on sea and land,
was very powerful factor in NOV
Ing Russia to accept the proffered
mediation of this country. But the
dual alliance is no longer supremely
important factor In Russian politics
or In Russian finance. An under
standing has been reached with Eng
land which, while not constituting an
offensive and defensive alliance, has
done much to allay suspicion and to
promote good will.

hence the loss of desirable Americans
doubtless will outnumber the gain of
foreigners, with a corresponding loss
OF dollars in proportion to which the
gain through immigration will be beg

the line for many years is the belief
OF those qualified to speak. Canadian
statisticians figure that by the end of
the century the population will have
increased to $4,000, 900. with ample
room for as many more. That the full
significance of the movement has not
dawned on the people of this country
Is evident from the fact that press
and public are still bidding god-speed

to the disappearing millions of good
