Of. John Chinaman.

He Is now to be found IN every
country of the globe. AS an immi-

and subject to oppressive laws, but
he makes his own way. Drop him
down on any spot on the earth's sur

himself and ask odds of no one. The
Chinese beggar In a foreign land is
unknown. He ls misery and lives
cheaplN only when circumstances com
pei. When prosperity smiles there Is
no more generous people. AS trader
and a merchant he has no equal. In
the Philippines there are only 10000
Chinese, less than l per cent of the
total population. But this handful Of
Chinese controls 90 per cent of the
retail trade Of the islands. In trade,
in scholarship, In bodily strength and
endurance. In industry John China
man individually is able to hold his
own against all corners. He can live
and prosper in adverse conditions
where all other races fail. Yet his
country is weak and helpless against
the aggresslons Of smaller countries
and its future is subject. of appre-
hension and doubt. Official corrup-
ton, superstition, provincial spirit in

country. to old FORMS. and make its

The defendants are father and son,

sented that defendants permitted the
plaintiff to so where they were cut

is made a co-defendant because the

a demurrer to the petition holding
