sion, could easily vouch for the
truth of that statement.
The weather was fine, roads were

sized circus tent, was filed to its
utmost capacity with men and wom-

900 people, who were peasant proprie-
tors once, have now become landless.
and they are now driven out to work
as semi-slaves in the rubber planta-
tions owned by British settlers. A
slave race since 1904 is coming into
existence in Ceylon owing to the eco
nomic. disturbance brought on by the
despotic act of an individual who was
once governor of the island and now
a director of a rubber plantation COM
pany in Borneo.
Asiatic countries under British rule
are allowed to be exploited by British
Adventures, and the policy of the
colonial administration directed by
the secretary of state for the colonies
from his Office in Downing street, Lon
don, is well defined by the London
Times in the following lines:
'Sarawak is a model to the world
of how to rule a native population,
but this is partly due to the fact that
its white rajahs have had the
enormous advantage of continuous
tenure of office from the interference
of a colonial office in another hemi-
sphere. They knew that native insti-
tations ripen very SLOWLY. In crown
colony governor would have been
sent out to cram as many alien insti-
tutions into the country as his short
tenure of office would allow English
law and English court procedure would
have been crudely forced upon the
people, and if the facilities for grant
ing land to planters were thought in
adequate, questions would have been
asked in the house OF commons and
no NTH
would have replaced the old This is
not the way in Sarawak. The natives
take real part in legislation and in
government. and they are protected
against commercial exploitation by
watchful government Times Liter
ary Supplement, Feb. %, 1918.
The British colonial policy in Asia
is different from that of Canada.
South Africa, Australia and New
Zealand. In Ceylon the few thou
sand of British settlers who exploit the
land with the help of the British gov
ernor run the whole show. The sons
OF the soil have to eat of the crumbs
that fall from the aliens table. The
people are graaning under injustice.
Ihelr voice is ignored. and the voice

IS accepted in preference by colonial

power in parliament. Students Of CO.

In Asia and they will realize that the
Congo and the Putuwayo atrocities are
repeated in minor scale in Ceylon.

Lon, the potato bearing his name hav-
ing proved immune to many of the in
fluencCs of weather and unfavorable
soil which mean almost total crop fail
ures of older varieties. Still such is the
popular dependence upon this tuber
that the cultivation of an acceptable
substitute would meet a real and wide
spread economic need.
1t is well known that the failure OF
enc potato crop in Ireland reduces
thousands Of the population to starva-

of potatoes, with prices increased three

heavy burden to those t0rne by ma

While the horse is one of the most
intelligent of animals and may be
taught many tricks there is n horse
owned in Augusta which, so his owner
thinks, when it comes right down to
every day horse sense, knows fully as
much. and perhaps more, than the 9TH
ers of his kind in his vicinity. The
gentleman in question has cottage at
the lake. and sometimes uses his team
in driving to and fro. On the road to
the lake is blacksmith shop, and at
this shop the owner of the horse has
had him shod sufficient number of
times 50 that the animal knows the
place. While there may be nothing out
of the ordinary in this fact, something
occurred. few days ago, that was
very much so, and the owner of the
horse admits that for a while the an
imal had him guessing. He was driv-
ing to the lake, and as he passed the
blacksmith shop the horse slowed down
his speed and finally came to stop in
front of the building. When requested
to go on, the animal was ap-
parently 10th to move. and~>the own

had never shown any signs of
being balky, he might perhaps
be threatened with symptoms of that
