If we turn to the German colonies, wo fode triking contrast to this state of things. The white people in the countries form a more handful of the total population, and of the whites abens two-thirds only are Gormans. In the whole of the great colonies in Africa they went to but few thousands while the Booth Sea protectorates can only account for several hondteile.

Why is this?

The explanation lies in the character of Cor- men colonial administration. The colonies are regarded as economic cstates, and are maneged na burenne atic lines. They are part of the iron-bound effcial system which, whatever its merits, does not attract the free spirit of entar prise that conquers the most antoward sandi- ions and fosters commeros and trade. Although Germans have been offered inducements to settle in their crespo possessions, they have not respoßded with the exgorness which one would expect from a people imputed to be anxious to found a great colonial empire; ofther bare apitalists shown any disposition to invest money in these unleratoped estates. They have not achiered the sacos which has attended British lonies in the same position. Almost all of them are dependent on the home government for Lancial support:

some are heavy charges or tho Imperial exchequer, requiring large subsi ding to enable them to balance their budgets Their oristanes is due to the resolute paley of 4ceman Stateson to increase the power and prestige of Germany throughout the world, their failure results from the reluctance of the individual German to migrate to them in any great numbers.

It is not that the (ferman wakes an indifferent tolonist. Like the Englishmen and Scotsman, he is a natural pioneer and settler, and, liko them, takes root in snow cavntry and identifies himself with his environment. The traveller bets them in ovory land and in the most ont-of-the-way corners. The majority aro ngaged in mereantile and banking business, wany are produca merchants, while a fo Tevote benisel rey to agriculture: Thera is also a considerable amber rho are experts in ouploy. ments requiring scientific knowloige.

It is is technical ability and achievement that the German beats the Englishman abroad as well as at home. A single illustration of

Under ordinary circumstances they do not wish protection from their tistacamont.

The afficial repre- sonrative of the Emperor is never slow to make capital out of the most trivial incident, but the ordinary residents seldom benefit by his into forence. Still los do they desire to see the German flag aufold above them. They may, of course-often do maintain a strong ragned for the home country, but they prefer to show their patriotism by intlopendently promoting its trade rather than by contributing to the extension of ita colonial possessions.-W.
