krupp Methods in America?

Mr. Hamilton Holt, managing edi-
tor of the Independent, has something
to say regarding the artificial charac-
ter. along certain lines, of the anti
Japanese agitation. We quote this:
The feeling OF admiration by the
Japanese for the United States has for
many years been almost reverential.
but the systematic mantle station of i'll
will. since the Russo Japanese war,
are straining a historic friendship. And
it must be remembered, he adds, that
there are forces in Japan that are
working against this historic friend
hip. just as there are i'll this country.
While OH recent visit to Japan he
learned something OF these forces,
among which he mentions the agents
OF ordnance manufacturers and ship
builders.
| am told that these agents are many
in number and plentifully supplied with
expense money and entertainment
funds. 1t is significant fact that none
of these agents breaches anything but
the antagonism OF the United States to
Japan. 1t is also interesting to note
that the trade rivals of the United
States, England and Germany, are
jealous over our increasing trade with
Japan The best-informed student of
Japan | met abroad told me that nine
tenths of the false rumors which have
tended to damage the standing of
American traders in the far East can
be traced directly to rivals in trade
If an acknowledged trade expert like
Mr. Hamilton Holt seems convinced that
this is the true situation, we are not
surprised TO have certain papers sug-
gest that something like the Krupp
methods of working up war sentiment
in all likelihood are used from time 10
time in our own country. Perhaps the
investigation ordered by the German
Reichstag as a result of the disclosures
made on the floor of that body by Mr..
Liebknecht. the Socialist leader, may
indirectly throw some light upon these
matters that may not only be of in
ternational interest. but come in the
nature of revelation.

A coal miner is brave man with
broad shoulders, who sticks lamp into
his cap and goes down in among the
ribs of the planet in order to excaVate
coal enough to keep the world warm next
winter.
Coal mining is as uncomfortable as
riding back and forth on the New York
subway. The coal miner does not have
to hang from a strap, but he must lie
on his side and cut out tons and tons
of coal with a pick. When he has done
this for four or FIVE hours his COM
plexion Is a rich, oily black. and the only
clean thing about him is his smile which
looks like a cash in a watermelon. Coal
miners battle as often as the upper
classes. but put more visor and muscle
into the job.
Coal mining is as dangerous as telling
the truth in Tennessee politics. III the
roof of the mine does not fall on the
miner or he is not choked by choke

Gated by a blast which has waited
while to think it over before exploding.
he NAV live to a good old age. but this
is not customary. Coal miners work
from 100 to 500 feet under ground, and
i'm case of trouble they have only two fire
.scapes-both upward. A coal mine ought
at least TO have as many exits as a
nickel theater.
Coal miners and New York busipess
men have a good deal in common. Both
work about six hours a day and both
travel the last quarter of mile to their
iobs In elevators. When the coal miner

But his browning mercy" is the much
discussed "Pive Feddan Law" which prac-
tically means that he has forbidden bor

land. This has been done by providing
that no owner of five feddans or less-a
feddan IL about an acre-may be sold out
under mortgage, and as in Egypt hve
feddans Of good cotton land IL worth
anything from 500 to 1000 pounds ster-
ling, it yields a rent of as much az fif-
teen pounds sterling per acre per annum.
This practically means that agricultural
credit, except on large scale, Is forbid
den, for in Egypt small holdings are the
rule. In 1911. 80 per cent of all the land
owners in the country held less than ive
feddans each, the average being less
| than four feddans per head.

Boots and Shoes.

The American shoe is unrivaled not
only in the American. but in foreign
markets, and up to the present time
manufacturers in this industry have
met successfully allcomers. The tariff
on boots and shoes may be con-
venience to them, but it certainly is
not a necessity.
The value of the products of the
boot and shoe industry i'll the United
States in 1900 was S5I2,7oS,ooo. which
was an increase over 1904 of 434 per
cent. The rapid growth of this in
dustry has encouraged the development
of the export trade. For the past
decade this trade has been increasing.
The duty on boots and shoes was re-
duced i'll the PayTe-Aldrich law from
IS per cent to IS per cent, and the
manufacturers were given free hides.
This reduction did not arrest to an ap-
preciable extent the growth of the in
dustry: the export trade went ahead
with leaps and bounds until in 1912 it
amounted to over SI6,oooooo The
Underwood bill now proposes to re-
move all duty from boots and shoes
and either to reduce the duties on, or
remove all duties from, the materials
used by the industry. Manufacturers
protest against this move, but ii is not
regarded even by them as a. life and
death matter.
Free trade in boots and shoes will
tend to encourage the development of
the industry abroad. American ma
chinery and American workmen have
been used to develop a rival industry
in foreign countries, and the combina-
ton of American mechanical ingenuity
and personal skill with the 'cheapness
of foreign capital and common labor
is likely to create formidable COM
petitor Foreigners take advantage as
quickly of labor-saving machinery of
American inventions as they do of the
American market when the bars are
let down, The manufacturers fear free
trade in boots and shoes, not so much
because of its immediate as of its Ill
innate effect 1t is safe to assume,
however. that with the lead they now
have they will not be outrun by any
foreigner.
The Washington herald., 1913-05-09
The "SubItme Porte"

From the London Chronicle.
The sublime porte where Nazim
Pasha was killed, is the French name for
the Bab-i-Humayun, or imperial gate,
originally erected by Mohammed III. the
conqueror of Constantinople. 1t is made
of marble, and designed to represent a
triumphal arch, but the present gate,
which has become for Europe the symbol
of Sultanism. is mainly somewhat mod
ern restoration. The Understanding title
is not justified by the unimposing APP
pearance, but has been derived from the
period when this was the principal en-
trance for the Sultans into the old
seraglio. On either side of the gate
way are inches, in which the heads of
grand viziers and other officials who had
incurred the Sultan's displeasure were
formerly exposed to public view on silver
plates.
