problem now beginning to be au old

dominance Is equally marked In pri-
vate business enterprises. Tho onl
thing left of tho former Chlneso reglmr
Is the accumulated 111 h In tho streets
over which Cossack orderlies dash with
the indifference of lifelong familiar-
ity. Tho Blgnlflcant feature of this
sweeping change Is the fact that th
Manchus rather Uko It. Those nomad
Tartars never bad much sympathy for
tho fossilized conservatism and absurd
ceremonialism that seem so dear to the
Chinaman. Their Independent spirit'
revolted against tho nbject kowtow de-
manded by every petty Chinese official
Thoy find that they can speak freolj
and Informally to Ilusslan officials and
they appreciate the difference. The
Russians a'so are devtloplng tho mines
and Industries of the country with
nmazlng energy and have brought
prosperity In their train. Tartars who
formerly worked for (1 a month now
can earn 50 cents' or oven $1 a day.
Tho Russians do not trouble the na-
tives with any sanitary or social re-
forms and their Ideas conflict wltb
nono of tho nnclent prejudices of the
Mongols.
The net result Is that the Manchus
are fairly reconciled to Muscovite "rulo.
The silent methods of RtHs'an con-
quest havo availed to annex th s new
empire without a struggle. On the
whole tho change nppears to bo as
beneficial to the Manchus as It Is
profitable to the Russians for when
all Is said the Russian government la
to be preferred to that of the Chlneso
Empire.

A band of Afro-Amorlenn clergymen

Any practical solution of ono of tho
moat voxntlous problems of tho coun-
try nnd tho contury ought to bo
honrtlly welcomed by whites and col-
ored. Unfortunately this Is not n
practical solution. Americans cannot
bo compelled to llvo in any particular
pnrt of the country so long ns thoy
respect tho laws.
Ono of tho conditions to ho attachod
lo acquisition of land In tho projected
block commune Is that tltlo Is never
to pass to any whlto. This condition
would probably bo declared unconsti-
tutional. A form of Independent sub-
government exclusively black would
also como Into ceitnln conflict with
tho lnws of tho United Stntcs r.nd of
tho stato of New York.
A totally different reason howovor
will defeat tho visionary project apart

How Din U (lunritnit.
Dr. Frank J. Toussnlnt has returned '
from n six months' exploring trip
thi-ough tho mining and agricultural
districts of noithwestern Moxlo. He
nlso mado a visit to tho City of oxlco
and conferred with President Diaz In 1
relation to mineral rlghU on n govern-
ment grant In Yaqul valley.
"The shooting of President McKln-
ley" said Dr. Toussulnt "would not
have oeen posslhlo In Mexico a coun-
tiy where attempted nswtsslnntlon Is
ono of tho evpcited Incidents of gov- -ernment.
President Diaz never tnkeii
n wnlk on tho street or In nny public
place without secret service men watch-
ing over him. Nobody with his hand '
wrapped up or with his hand In his
pocket could approach him without be-
ing stopped. Ono morning a lamo man
carrying n heavy cane was passing
him on tho street. A detcctlvo brushed
against tho man ns by nccldcnt nnd
knocked the enno out of his hand. Ho
picked It up nnd returned It to tho
man with profuso npologlcs but whllo
he had tho cano In his hanas ho gavo
tho head a turn and pull to fatlafy
himself thnt It was not n sword cane.
Another tlmo nn old womnn cnrrylng
n bosket on her arm was stopped be-.
cnuso hnr hnnd wns concealed In the
basket. Tho detective lifted her hand
out of tho basket and seeing that It
held no weapon apologized for tho lib-
erty. "Attempts on tho life of Diaz hnvo
been made nnd no precaution has been
spared to prevent a ropltltlon of thorn.
If a man clasps his hands behind him.
whllo ho is talking with a public man
a detective will suggest that ho allow
his hands to hang naturally at his
side." Milwaukee Sentinel .
I Suicide Our National Hint
In a sermon delivered In Chicago re-
cently tho Rtv. R. K'ono Ryan said:
"As decllno of home llfo and mother-
hood has become the national sin of
Franco as Intemperance has bocome
tho national sin of England and Ger-
many eo suicide Is likely to becomo
the national sin of America If the
alarming Increase of this unhappy vlco
continues In our midst."
It might bo ptsslble to give this
prophecy tho appenrance of plausibil-
ity by arguing over tho condition at
the close but tho Intimation that wa
are fast reaching a bad pro-omlnonco
as the countiy of suicides has no war-
rant In facts. In one recent summary
of suicidal statistics by nations tho
United States stands very near the foot
of tho list with more than a scoro of
nations above her and only Russia
Ireland and Spain below. To show
whero the pre-eminence Is we will
quote a part of tho tab'.o which gives
the number of suicides annually per
100 000 of tho population In tho coun-
tries named as follows; Saxony 31.1;
Denmark 258; Schleswlg-Holsteln 24;
Austria 21.2; Switzerland 20.2;
France 15.7; German Empire 14.3
