Migration of Capital.

In recent years we have heard much
about the migration of Americans to
the prairie lands OF Western Canada :
a movement of almost equal moment,
although not so widely discussed, is
the migration of American capital to
Canada. Such a movement is not un-
natural.
Canada is a new country, and offers
d better field for the development Of
certain industries than the United
States. Such industries as the lumber
and news-print paper industries pros
per because the forest resources of the
Dominion are great. Canada also fos-
tiers industries by a protective tariff.
The preferential tariff, given to the
United Kingdom, has not prevented
the lady of the SHOWS from being
mistress in her own house.
During 1913 alone almost twice as
much American capital was invested in
Canada as during the years 1905 1909.
Unquestionably the Democratic tariff
policy has accentuated this migration
of American capital. Gov. Foss of
Massachusetts, has himself established
factory in Canada with the view of
prOfting by the lower cost OF produc-
ton there on the one hand and by
the markets OF the United States on
the other. In the Manufacturers
News for July y, he says:
The trouble with the Republicans
was that they were too selfish. The
Democrats are going to the other eN-
RENE; they are giving away our mar
kets and getting nothing in return.
My statement that from three to
five hundred million OF capital had
gone from the United States into the
financing OF manufacturing plants in
Canada has created considerable sur
prise The fact Is that the movement
OF american manufacturers and AmerI-
can money into Canada has been go
ing on so quietly that it has not at
tracted much public attention.
The free trader asserts with conf
dence that if the tariff is removed
from a product the domestic capital
will seek employment in other and
more productive lines, and in the end
the country will be wealthier than be-
fore. He forgets, however, that the
capital, instead OF going into some
other line of production here may go
abroad In the intricate and complex
operation OF international trade there
/, probability that this will result in
a loss 10 the nation. 1t may, of course,
increase the net total OF the worlds
wealth. but most OF US are interested
in the material wealth not Of the
world but OF our own nation.
In the real struggle of nations for
supremacy in which tariff plays a large
part, reciprocity is the most effective
device at the disposal of statesmen.
Canada is rejoicing now in the fact that |
the Democratic bill will give them all
that Taft's reciprocity treaty offered, /!
and give it to them without any con-
cessions to us. Now, if ever, is the
time to introduce an effective reci-
procity provision into a tariff bill. If
it is not done. in order to open the !
closed gates of Canada to our exports,
We may expect a continuous immigra-
ton OF our capital. Capital is a
stranger to patriotism.

Before Paul succumbed to the blows
of his assassins he had already fallen
a victim TO a combination of circum-
stances. the victim Of his origin which
was more than three-quarters German;
his French education; his Russian en-
virunments, and the inevitable clash of
discordant and Heterogeneous elements.
The humanitarian ideas OF the West
were mingled in his mind with Oriental
brutalities, the Journalism of Prussia
with the fantasy OF the East; civilization
and barbarism jostled in him, and all
this not only entered into the composition
of his own personality, but through him
penetrated to his people. Finally he was
the victim Of morbid tendencies, result
ting from such an abnormal mind.
GATHERINGS son often has been COM
pared to the son Of Maria Theresa, who
also inherited from an omnipotent and
great mother. He, too, initiated Frederick
the Great, and unconsciously initiated
the French revolutionists. But Paurs
work was much wider in its scope, and
for the most part has survived its au-
thor, because 1t exaggerated certain
traits in the heritage of the last repre-
sentatives of the House OF Burik and
the first Of the Romanoffs.
The reforms planned by Paul did u~t
all Of them, die with him. Among his
murderers the idlers and the peculat>rs
of all ranks no doubt were the first 70

the triumphant guard did not succeed in
recovering from its earlier downfall, AID
along with the degrading corporalism
which Paul carried to such lengths there
were more praisewoTthy borrowings frUm
the traditions of Frederick II of Prussia,
which have become a permanent part
OF the military organization of the codn-

Little Rock, March 18-Posi tive assurance has been given of. ticials of the Arkansas National Guard that if they can finance the organization until the next ses- sion of the legislature, the gov ernment will continue it's dona. tion to the maintenance of the Guard. With this end in view the officials have taken the pro- position up with Little Rock banks and five of them have prac- tically agreed to carry the ac, count. The final arrangements will be completed at the meeting of the state association, Thurs. day.
 With such encourage ment, the mem bers of the Guard have ceased to worry about the fail ure of the legislature to make the usual appropriation, and an nouncement has been made that the usual school for officers will be held at Fort Logan H.

CAPITAL COMMISSION
 MEETING TODAY

Little Rock, March 18.-T h Q State Capitol Commission is meeting today to take up the proposition of completing the building and furnishing it from cellar to garrett. There is no obstacle which can prevent the commission going ahead and in- stalllng permanent heating plant in the sub basement and dispensing with the temporary affair which has done service since the building was first oc. cupied two years ago.
 The Commission will go over the entire work with Cass Gil bert, the New York architect, and prepare for the asking of bids upon the completion of the building. The capitol will then begin the transformation from a partially completed building to a thing of beauty. The walls will be tinted so there will be no trace of dirt as is now shown on the formerly white walls. The rough concrete floors of the basement and sub basement will be com pleted and marble will be their ! pavement.
 The Commission is expected to secure the services of a com potent landscape gardener and architect, who will take charge of the grounds and convert them into a park with terraces all around, and asphalt walks and driveWays intersecting.
 One of the first things to be done in beautifying the capitol will be the removal of the old penitentiary hospital which now shuts the view of the building off from people passing thru the city on trains.
 The recent legislature appro- Ipriated nearly a half million for the completion of the building, and though there is now less than S300,000 on hand, the taxes collected this year and the one eighth mill remaining for next year, will make up the deficiency so the building will be completed and out of politics forever before the beginning of the next regu- lar session of the General As som hlV

NAVY LEAGUE OFFICER
SCORES MR.. HENSLEY
A. H. Dadmun Compares Representa-.
i've to Those Who Opposed More
Ships Before Civil War.

Comparing Representative Hensley of
Missouri in his anti-battleship-b building at
titude to those who just before the civil
war opposed any increase of the navy
and thereby made II impossible for the
Union government effectively to impose
blockade upon Southern ports. thus
prolonging the war, A. H. Dadmun. sec
retary OF the Navy League, last night re-
piled to. the attack made upon his or
ganization by the Missouri member Of
the House.
Like the attitude of the opponents OF
the navy prior to both the civil war and
the war OF 1872. the policy of neglecting
the navy is likely to prove a hindrance
to the cause of peace itself and lead
directly to unnecessary loss of life and
billions of unnecessary expense" said
Secretary Dadmun, 'Battleships are
cheaper than battles Power to display
force makes the use of force unnecessary.
and that is just why President Wilson
has sent out battleships to the coast of
Mexico.
THE attitude of the opponents of the
navy in Congress is shortsighted and
provincial. and portrays a woeful igno-
rance of history and world conditions.
Winston Churchill, in asking Germany
for a naval holiday, was playing politics.
because he was perfectly aware that Ger
many would not consider such a propo-
sition. His proposal was simply a sop to
the members of the Liberal party. who
begrudge the naval appropriations he was
asking for, which include appropriations
for at least five new Dreadnoughts. The
movement cannot be characterized as sin
cere, because there is not the slightest
expectation that Churchili's proposal will
be taken seriously by Germany"
