The burdens of a soâ€"called defence against the wars of the imagination are a heary load in all cases, a powerful argument for adopting arâ€" bitration as the best possible means The World Peace Foundation has published a revised list of arbitraâ€" tion treaties from 1889 to 1912 inâ€" €lusive, which is indicative of the growing disposition to settle interâ€" national controversies by a resort to arbitration. The total number for the period amounts to more than 150, and the record shows that since 1900 there have been about 130 arbitrations, most of which have been held under the provisions of treaties. There is, it appears, & strong tendency not only toward arbitration but toward express arâ€" rangements by treaty, and it is said practice has demonstrated that it is better for a state to make‘ many treaties on definite subjects‘ They Go to a Lot of Trouble to Lock Up Tower of London. in ANCIENT CUSTOMS KEPT UP.

His confession that Veltang is mainly English, however, hardly seems to justily this hope. English, he thinks, is NOTES AND coMMENTsS The struggle for survival of the fittest becomes fiercer among the universal languages with every year. Yolapuk had scarcely got a foothold before it was crowded into & corner by Esperanto, and now Esperanto itself has had to come to grips with the newer idiom neuâ€" tral. Latest arrival on the scene is Veltang, the invention of Proâ€" fessor Frederick J. Braendle. Hitherto makers of world tongues bave pretty consistently _ slighted the Chinaman and the Arab; the nt nce. n the en ign relations ng to cover all "I dinna want it," said the boy. ‘‘You keep it and get your hair eut." ‘"‘Well," said the Professor, ‘"you have earned your sixpence.

Clad in a shepherd‘s plaid, with a broadâ€"brimmed hat on his heady and his hair falling in â€"ringlets about his shoulders, the quaint old professor was accustomed to take long walks through the Edinburgh strects. On one of these walks he was accosted by a dirty little bootâ€" black. ‘‘Polish your boots, sir?‘‘ asked the bov. Professor John Stuart Blackie, the noted Scottish scholar and man of letters, had the rare gift of beâ€" ing able to enjoy thoroughly a joke of which he was the victim. The following anecdote he particularly relished : "Well, I‘m not a fairy,‘" said her mother, "but I‘m going to the store this afternoon.‘""â€"Youth‘s Companâ€" ion. That night it took Lucie a long time to get to sleep. She tossed, and turned her pillow several times. Very early the next morning Lucie was wakened by the sparâ€" rows checping just outside her winâ€" dow. She remembered what she had decided to do just before she went to sleep; so she got out of bed and found her knittingâ€"spool. She raveled the dark red, then the new green, and then she dressed and hurried down to the porch; she twisted the green thread on the blackberryâ€"bush right beside the diningâ€"room window. She did not tie it very tight, and when she ran out again, it was gone. 7 "O mother,‘‘ she cried, ‘"if I were only a little girl in a story, some fairy would give me another green string! I was hoping he wouldn‘t take itâ€"but I gave him a fair chance." "Oh, I don‘t know," answered father ; ‘"but you must admit, little daughter, that he had it first. Come in to supper." * Lucie sat down on the porch and began to knit the new color into her rope. It looked very pretty next to the dark red, and she was so busy that it was supperâ€"time beâ€" fore she knew it. Father came out to call her in. ‘Well, how‘s the rope toâ€"dayâ€"it surely does grow.‘" Lucie held it up for him to see, and her forehead puckered a little as she told him about the silk thread ‘‘No. You can do as you please, but that is what I should do." |, "It‘s lovely!"‘ cried Lucie. "It‘s just as if a fairy had answered my wish!‘‘ and she ran joyously into the house to show it to her mother. After her mother had heard the story, she said, "But I‘m just a little bit sorry for Mr. Sparrow." "O mother,""‘ said Lucie, impaâ€" tiently, ‘"any color will do for sparrows. Sophie‘s rope is longer than mine; besides, this is such a beautiful green. How do you know that sparrows know one colâ€" or from another ?"‘ "Of course,‘" admitted mother, ‘"‘the sparrow never told me; but suppose Mrs. Sparrow was expectâ€" ing it, and they saw you pick it up. Wouldn‘t it be fun to put it out and see if they would come and get it again ?" "I don‘t want to," said Lucie. "I don‘t want to one bit.

If anything more were needed to occasion unrest it was to be found in the simultansous arrival from GU., says : ‘"Assuming, however, that 7,500 was the total Japanese population in the beginning of the year 1903, it is not a matter of surprise that with the arrival of 8,125 Japanese in the ten months following the ‘reo%le of B.C., and more especia,l; y the people of Vancourer, should have experienced some concern, and that as vessel after vessel landed an everâ€"increasing number until in fewer months than it had taken years to bring the Japanese population of B. C. to what it was, this total was exceeded by new arâ€" rivals, that consternation should have been felt in many quarters. Then the people took the matter into their own hands. The staid and phlegmatic old "Briton‘‘ went down to the Japanese quarters at Vancouver and tried to wipe it out over night. ~A royal commission was soon appointed at Ottawa and a royal commissioner was sent to find out what was wrong. In his report made at Ottawa in 1908 the Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, C.M. Their exclusion from Canada was under conditions involving national pride, and racial d{rcrimination as lpoig'nantv and exasperating as the California case presents. In 1901 but six Japanese came to Canada. The next year none came, but in 1905 there landed in British Columâ€" bia 354 Japanese. These wrote home glowing accounts, etce., so that in the next twelve months, or 1906, Japs to the number of 1,922 landed in that province. In 1907 the number increased to 2,042, and in 1808 it rose to 7,601 for the first nine months. Then the storm broke in all its fury. British Columbia, occupying a position with reference to Canada as a whole very similar to that occupied by California with reference to the United States, bore: the brunt of the fight. The Proâ€" vincial Government from time to time enacted educational tests simiâ€" lar to those of Australia, but these were disallowed by Earl Minto, Covernorâ€"General of Canada. } ‘"‘During the last 50 years the most vital phase of the Australian immigration situation has been the exclusion of Asiatics. Ever since the discovery of gold in the Victorâ€" ian fields of Australia in 1851 Asiatics have tried to flow into Australia. The slogan of ‘A White Australia‘ was raised many years ago, and the present law is the reâ€" sult. This law, which is known as the â€" Commonwealth _ Immigration Restriction Act of 1901, provides an educational test for all applicants. This test consists of writing in a European language at the dictation of an Australian immigration offiâ€" cer, a total of 50 words. Between the years 1902 and 1907 nineteen Japanese tried the test and all were excluded and deported.‘"‘ at the time, yet, strange to say, it is seldom referred to now in the conâ€" sideration of the California case. Japan, it will be recalled, made no very strong protest to Great Briâ€" tain, either in the Australia or Canada cases. The barring of the Japanese from Canada created a great commotion The ‘"Dillingham â€" Commission‘s Report,‘"‘ the most competent study of immigration ever mzde in hisâ€" tory, has this to say of the fight in Australia against the yellow peril : But it is difficult to understand why the Japs have singled out the California case as the basis of proâ€" test against racial discrimination when it is well known that both Australia and Canads have barred Japanese under conditions much more strict and galling than those presented in the California antiâ€" alien lanod law. Japan resents the implied disâ€" crimination against its people as an insult to national pride; and the Chinese are equally incensed but are much less powerful than the Japanese to back up their threats. The problem is rendered still more complex from the fact that the people of that State do not wish to pass any laws that will deflect European capital or labor from the State. Accordingly the Assembly has passed a bill (not retroactive) prohibiting all aliens, who are not eligible to citizenship, from hereâ€" after acquiring land by deed or lease. This hits the Chinese and Japanese in a tender spot, as the subjects of both these nations are denied citizenship in the United States. It seems that the Jap farmers and fruit growers of California ‘have been making far too rapid strides to suit their American comâ€" petitors, so much so, in fact, that it is predicted that the Japs will practically own California in a few years if the present rate of adâ€" vance is kept up. The State Legisâ€" lature has been earnestly wrestling with bills of various kinds that will not violate our treaty relations with that Government, but at the same time will curtail this rapidlyâ€" growing Japanese supremacy, and yet will not too badly discriminate against a particular nation so as to offend national pride. The determination of the Califorâ€" nia Legislature to deprive the Jaâ€" panese of the right to own, hold, or lease land in that state, has brought forth a rather vehement protest from the Tokyo Governâ€" ment. The fiery denunciations by the Japanese press and the deâ€" mands for immediate war by the excited stump speakers in that country, have a threatening look. In the meantime the arts of diâ€" plomacy are brought into requisiâ€" tion by both governments to avert a war if possible. Once nore the ominous war clouds loom up in the Western horiâ€" zon that may involve the orient and occident in a bitter if not a prolonged struggle. MORE TROUBLE WITH JAPAX. The weaker a man is the stronger his habits grow on him. ‘‘Stave died February 24, and the Norwegian relief expedition, comâ€" manded by Capt. Stazrud, appearâ€" ed April 21.‘ % The expedition started last sumâ€" mer under the patronage of the Duke of Altenburg to try to find the northâ€"east passage. "Dr. Rudinger in the meanwhile had suffered greatly, two more of his toes and four fingers having been frozen, while his foot became so bad it had to be amputated. ‘‘The guides and sailors of the exâ€" pedition returned unexpectedly to the ship December 24, reporting the loss of Eberhardt. They had no news of Dr. Dettmers or Dr. Moeâ€" ser, gle botanist, They said, Capt. Ritschel had gone on alone to fJâ€" vent Bay. ‘"‘We remained there three days during a storm, and then started again for the ship, guiding ourâ€" selves by the stars. We arrived at the ship December 1. ‘"We suffered severely, having nothing to drink, but we finally reached a hut at Mossel Bay, where we found some hard and mouldy bread. "Dr. Rudinger and I were withâ€" out tools, sleeping bags, or lights. I melted some fat and made lights, and fashioned some sleeping bags from salted skins which I found in the hut. Provisions ran out, and we left the hut November 23, hopâ€" ing to regain the ship. ‘"‘The party started for Advent Bay and reached a hut on Wije Bay October 4. Dr. Rudinger, the oceanographer, was suffering then from a half frozen foot, two of his toes being in bad condition. I ofâ€" fered to remain with him there unâ€" til the others could bring back help. The hut contained a month‘s proâ€" visions. ‘"‘The proposal to abandon the ship came from Capt. Ritschel at the beginning of September. The vessel then had provisions for four months, besides a large supply of condensed foods, and it was otherâ€" wise well equipped. Travellers Without Food, Light or Drink in Frozen Wilds.

The despatch reads : Attorneyâ€"General for Greoat tain, whose resignation has refused by Premier Asquith _ Great Britain, by acquiescing in the action of her two colonies, has said No, and so we say, though war is to be the result. Let it come, if come it must; this country is not quite ready yet to surrender the right of deciding who shall become its citizens to any foreign potenâ€" tate; and if the Japs want a "scrap‘‘ they have only to fire the first gun, whereupon the "yellow peril"‘ will be wiped from the map of the world in as short a time as Spain was subdued and was forced from the Western world. CHAS. M. BICE. SUFFERINGS OF EXPLORERS. Japan has a population of over 40,000,000, and they are w«rowded into a territory no larger than the State of Colorado. Expansion is surely necessary. The only quesâ€" tion is: Can the Japanese find a place where they will be welcomed onequal terms with the white man ? Here we find a discrimination more exaspcrating and offensive to national pride than anything to be found in the California law. Yet Japan has never resented this act on the part of Canada or the Briâ€" tish Government. The exclusion of the Japs under this clause has resulted in a reducâ€" tion of their number to 495 in 1909 and 147 in 1910. The result of this investigation is found in Section 38 (c) of the preâ€" sent immigration law of the Doâ€" minion, which says in brief that the officials of the Dominion Governâ€" ment have the right to . . . "proâ€" hibit for a stated period, or permaâ€" rently, the landing in Canada, or in any part thereof, of immigrants belonging to any race deemed unâ€" suited to the climate or requireâ€" ments of Canada, or of immigrants of any specified class, occupation or character."‘ the orient of Hindus by the hunâ€" dreds, and Chinese in larger numâ€" bers than those of immediately preâ€" ceding years.
