BlCK 70 THE SOIL.

At first thought ii might seem entirely
unnecessary for the Department Of Aeri-
culture. m Washington to remind the
public. and especially the urban section
thereof. that in order to make a success
at farming one must have either train
ing or fitness fer it. In these days. when
literature relating to the soil is so piou-
tiful. however. when books telling how
to grow in the back yard enough to feed
an entire family may he had for the
asking, plus the purchase price. when
magazines devoted to the betterment Of
rural conditions and the interests of
those whose condition is already So IA
yoTable that it needs no hPtterment stare
al one from the neWsstaudS. there is
tendency to feel that in farming may be
found that rare combination of unaiioyed
pleasure and gratifying profit for which
every one longs. For. surely, if q plot
- by 100 feet can produce 50 much
wealth. as is couclusiyeiy proved b}
the treatises OF the subject, is If not
reasonable To expect that from q few
hundred acres n most magnificent profit
can he made? And rs the articles on
the subject contain the most miDute in
stTuctions. the item of experience might
appear to be wholly unnecessary.
But the Department Of Agriculture is
hot convinced that it is wise for the
banker and the broker ana the merchant
10 give up their business and HE them
selves TO the rural regions with the eX-
pactation Of increasing their wealth
through tilling the soil. 1t is still more

course is even more hazardous. because

THE COUNSEL or DESPAIR.

The commissions scheme for the tri-
borough subway is one of maGnfl-
cent promise on paper, which IS always
so easy, but is fuil of peril0us uncer-
tainty from a practical business point OF
yiew-NeW York Journal of Commerce.
We quote this because it is typical Of
what is being said by critics of The trl-
borough plan. who would prefer TO see
the tity content with such additions 20
its present system as the InterborOugh
Rapid Transit Company would construct
and on almost any terms The scheme
is one Of magnificent promise on
paper' but of no more magnificent
promise on paper than the present sub
way was when it existed only on paper.
II is boIder to proceed on the basis that
the city needs and private capital will
supply. or if private capital viii not sup
ply. at least private capital will be found
ready 10 operate, an adequate addi-
fional subway system than II accept the

the United States to be reserving the
right To establish adequate military de
fences of the canal, at any rate for its
protection when this country was at
war: and he approvingly added that CON
tingencies might arise when it would be
supremely important 10 the commercial
interests of the whole world that the
United States should thus protect the
canal. 1t certainly seems strange and
regTettahle that a British paper should
Genounce as a reputation of a treaty
the adoption of the British government :
own Interpretation Of the treaty.
We cannot for a moment suppose that
this unfortunate utteTance of a single
paper in any sense expresses the opinion
Of the British government or the senti-
ments of thoughtful British people.
Rather are the latter expressed in the
views reported from Paris 10y our CORE
spondent there that the forti6cation OF
the canal sufficiently for its secure de-
fcnce-and in case of this country's be
ing involved in war the exclusion there
from OF hostile feets-is an absolute
necessity. That was the opinion OF the
British government in 1901, and there
is no reason for suppesing that it has
been changed since That is the policy
which this country long ago openly
adopted, with the expressed approval OF
Great Britain and the tacit approval or
at least the acquiescence Of all other
nations. We believe that no other ma
tfon. if in our place, would dream of con-
Stlucting the canal on any other condi-
tions. and we believe, therefore. that our
policy in that respect viii command the
cordial approval Of the world.

DANGERS OF IMMIGRATION.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The most serious problem that con-
Germs the people of this city to-day is the
appalling increase of crime. People are
not safe in their own homes or on the pub
lie thor" "-i' sares- One great cause of this
terrible stat of affairs Is to be found in
our L. Immigration laws. which allow
other a.. Et.i5s to dump their thievlng and
murderous classes on our shores.
Thus far all efforts effectualiy to exclude
these criminals have been defeated by Ger
tain CpnSressmen, chief among whom Is
William s. Bennett As an influential
member CT the House Committee on I'M
migration, he has done much TO defeat the
Hayes-OyeTman bill and ether measures
that would have shut out the worst OF
these aliens.
Under these circumstances the advocates
of immigration restriction will oppose Ben
net for Governor. They believe that if he
is nominated his responsibility for this in
crease of foreign criminals will lose him
many votes and endanser the success Of
the whole Republican ticket
