GERMAN EMIGRATION
FAST DECREASING

Berlin.-A remarkable proof of the
prosperity of Germany under its pro-
tective policy is the diminution in the
number of emigrants. Thirty years
ago 100000 Germans left their coun-
try every year; now the annual num-
Der of emigrants is approximately
10000.
Official statistics show that the
population of Germany already num-
bers 64,750.00O, and at the present
rate of increase the population will
be fully 650O0,OOO when the next
census is taken on December l. The
increase of Germany'e popuIation for
some time past has been approximate
ly 100000 per annum.
Forty years ago France and Ger
many had almost equai populations
4O.OOO.OOO in each case. Now Ger
many has $1,000 900 and France only
100000 and the effect of this
change on the political and military
situation in Europe is evident.
The remarkable growth of German
population is continuing in spite of the
reduction of the birth rate from AZ
per 1000 in 1875 to 33 per 1000 in
1908. The contributory causes are
the reduction Of the death rate from
81 per 1000 in 1885 to 19 per 1000 in
1909 and the dminution of emigra-
ton.

responsibility, declares:
The tariff and the trusts are the

The Payne-Aldrich tariff encour-
ages the drinking of champagne and
discourages the wearing of woolen

The tariff makes great fortunes for

ROYALTY WILL VISIT
AMERICA NEXT WINTER

Washington.-Royalty galore will
grace America next season. according
to advices just received. No less than
five highnesses will visit the United
States during the coming winter, be-
sides the possibility of the stay of the
Duke of Connaught. The Iatter's
voyage is yet indefinite, but the chan
ces of his coming are said to be good.
Crown Prince Fredef,cK William of
Germany will reach Washington next
spring while the Duke D'Abruzzi is
expected about the middle of the
monh of November. Prince Andreas
of Greece, grandson of King George l.
is arranging for globe trotting too. He
is in the Indies, and the trip is - be
taken educationally.
Then will come the two Servian
princes. George and Alexander. whose
visit. scheduled for last March, was
deferred because of the wide public
ity given to the object of their er-
rand-the matrimonial search for
heiresses to replenish the Servian roy
al treasury.
There have also been reports that
Albert Edward, 16 years old, heir to
the British crown. will be sent for
a years voyage on board one of the
British battleships that will go around
the world at an early date and which
will stop at some American port on
the way.
Prince Tsai Houn, brother of the
prince regent of China, will reach the
United States early in October, and
will remain in this country several
weeks. He is also a brother of Tsai
Too, who was here last April and was
entertained by the president at the
White House.
All these notabilities-or those that
come-will visit washington, where
they will be idolized by society. In
anticipation of their coming, society
is arranging several entertainments.

ARGUMENTS FOR PEACE.

1t would seem that the new terrors
which science is constantly adding to
warfare and the enormous burden
the modern navy places upon the tax
payers of the country, would serve as
most potent factors in Fastening the
day when universal peace among ma
tons will be assured.
Congress recently organized the con-
struction of some new battle ships in
order to place the navy of this coun-
try upon a basis which would make
it formidable in a conflict with the
navy of any other country On each
o. these new ships there are to be ten
14-inch guns. What these monsters
are capable of doing is almost beyond
the grasp of the human mind. Each
gun will cost about ss5,000 and yet
Is good for life of only 20 discharg-
es under battle conditions. Each pro-
jectile launched will weigh 1400
pounds, being a veritable torpedo of
explosives Muzzle velocity will be
1900 feet a second. or nearly a half
mile. Muzzle energy will be equiva-
lent to the force one railway engine
and five cars, weighing $50 tons,
would exert when travelling so miles
an hour. if suddenly brought up
against a solid obstruction. At five
miles the projectile will penetrate
Harveyized steel armor of IA inches
thickness. In one hour of constant
fighting. these ten guns would re-
quire ammunition worth s2,52O,000.
And as if this We're not enough to
cause every right-thinking American
citizen to rise up and demand that this
nation take the lead in an active effort
to bring about universal peace, Lieu
tenant Joseph Fischel of the United
States army comes forward with an
additional incentive for international
tolerance. He has been assigned by
the war department to conduct SER
ies Of experiments at Sheapshead bay,
which while they may not prove the
truth of all his assertions, must at
least serve to make US think.
FTschel insists that the heavier than
air machines may be made almost ir-
resistable agents of destruction. He
declares that sharpshooters at an ele-
walton Of 1000 feet may chose their
targets at leisure and without fear
that any man on the ground will be
able to effectively return the fire. In
his opinion the areoplane is the most
powerful machine for future wars
While in the present stage Of air
navigation the lieutenant's observa-
tions are rather inclined to produce
smiles than serious thoughts aviators
are constantly announcing new tri-
umphs and It can be but a short time
until the aeroplane is brought into
much more practical use. When that
time arrives it must be considered as
most important factor in any kind
of warfare.
