COTTON AND CONTRABAND,
The Russian Supreme Pris Court's de cision in the case of the Calchan,” upholding the Russian Government'e do- claration that cotton is contraband," "brings the important question what is, and what is not, contraband of war, once more into public notice, says the Standard. It will, probably strike a good many persons aN GI- traordinary that it should over be seriously supposed that cotton is contraband. These may see in the Russian declaration merely another example of that Power's propensity to do the wrong thing. The case against Russia, however, is not quite so bad ne that. She may be, and we think in, wrong in declaring cotton to be contraband; but she is not entirely without an appearance of chee. At any rate, Englishmen will- be able to givo just as strong
mors
support
to their Government in its endeavours to get cotton removed from. Rumia's contra- band list if they will give a little conside ration to the subject of contraband bafore exploding in wrath,
The root trouble is that wu have no uni- vorsally agreed, authoritative definition of contraband applicable to all the cases which may arise. There is, indeed, singu- larly littlo agreement regarding what articles, and in what circumstances, are contraband. It attempting to arrive at a definition, it is wall to begin at the begin ning and define the nature of the law of contraband. And that may be best descri- bed as in itself an exception to a general law, The universal law is, in the words of Lord Westbury; that the commerce of nations ia porfectly free and unrestricted. The subjects of ozel nation have a right to interchange the products of labour with the inhabitants of every other country. If hostilities occur between two nations, and they become belligerents, neither belliger ent has a right to imposé or to require a neutral Government to impose, any rostric

Upon that general right is engrafted, in time of war, the right of a belligerent to seize neutral goods of certain kinds-com- modities, that is to say, which are destined to aid the enemy in the prosecution of his hostilities.

This declaration of Mr Cortelyou in plain terms means that the decision as to whother a Chinaman is a laborer. An American citizen, or balongs to the 'orompt class rests entirely with the im migration officials from whose action there is no appeal. This view of the case seoma to be borne out by a recent decision of the United States Supreme Court.
