RHODESIANS AND THE *HEALTHEN CHINEE,
ABRIDGED FROM TRUTH,"
Rhodesia is again agitated over the proposal: to import Chiarse coolies, and the frankness of the disputants in the Colonial papers lets in many interesting sidelights upon the native labour question. The Chinese scheme was first brought forward.last year at the instance' of the Chartered Company, but aroused such a storm of opposition that it was 'very soon shelved, Vain attempts have since been made to procure African labour, The Rand has always drawn a large supply from the Portuguese territories, bul, sad to relate, the thousands of natives thrown out of employ. ment by the war have an infinitely worse opinion of the Chartered Company than of the Boer Government, and they lefuse to be lured to Rhodesia, Mr Rhodes's vision of an abund ant supply of labour from Central Asia proved illusory, and his recent project far bringing Abys sinians and Somalis to Rhodesia was a ghastly failure. A few hundreds were decayed there, but. they were not long in discovering that Mr. Rhodes' recruiting agents had deceived thern as to the nature of the work and the rate of pay, and instead of behaving like the dumb drives cattle they were complacently expected to be, they violently resented the imposition, and repudiated their contracts. One party of two or three hundred mutinied at Salisbury,. and another lot declined to land from the steamer at Being the result being a confict, in which thirty were wounded and a dozen drown- ed. It is in these circumstances that the Chinese scheme has been revived in the interest of the big mining companies. But the great majority of the white population in Rhodesia strongly object to it. In the language of Truthful James, they fear that they will be," ruined by Chinese cheap labour.". They dread the clever- ness and industry of the Mongolian, and be Jieve that he will in the Inng run displace white workmen and become a formidable competitor with witeraders. In justification of these views they point to the expriences of Australia and America Knowing something of the ways of Kherlesian companies, from the Chartered Company downwards. the merchant and store. keepers sus ct that what money the coolics spend will be pocketed by their employers. What guarantee is there, they ask, that the miuing companies will purchase in Rhodesia the food, clothing, &c., which will be supplied from their stores in the compounds to the Chinese immigrants?
In a very instructive interview in the Bulawayo Chronicle Major Maurice Heany, who represents a large mining company, has endeavoured to overcome these objections, Incidentally he makes a confession which is interesting, in view of the alluring colours in which Rhodesia is depicted for the be guilement of English emigrants. "We are here living," he says, "in the tropics, and the sooner we admit that fact and adapt our inodes of life and, work to it the bet
It is not a land in which the white may dig and delve ad make protracted effort

PHILIPPINES PRODUCTS.
A Washington despatch of the 17th May says:-
An extra session of Congress is possible as a result of the decision of the Supreme Court to day in the insular cases, though it is not considered probable by Senators and Represen- tatives who are now here.
The effect of the decisions is to open up the ports of the United States, to the free importation of all products of the Philippines until such time as Congress shall enact a law prescribing the duties to be assessed. Up to this time full Dinley duties have been collected on all imports from the Philippines. Now that that barrier has been thrown down it is expected

SHIP CANAL PROPOSITION.
The French Colonial press, says Fairplay, is reviving the plan conceived some twenty years ago for making a ship canal through the Isthmus of Kra, on the Malay Peninsula, which as a glance at the map will show, would materially shorten the sea route between Europe and China. If such a canal were made, the river Paksbon flowing into the Bay of Ben gal, and the river Tchampon flowing into the Gulf of Siam, would be brought into use, and a cutting of only about thirty-three miles would be required to connect them. Jules Ferry, when he was in office, saw the importance, of this scheme, and he sent to Siam and Malacca a Commission consisting of three gentlemen well versed in colonial affairs, namely, François Deloncle,-Léon Drs, and the Count Mahé de la Bourdonnais, to study the project on the spot. The Commission arrived at the conclusion that the canal could be com- plated in seven years by employing six thou: Band coolies. Deloncle estimated the cast at eighty million francs, Dru's estimate was a hundred millions, and that of Mahe sixty-five
ans. The King of Siam, however, drew up a plan of his own for making the desired waterway at the much smaller cost of twenty million francs, But perfidious Albion s charged with standing in the way of this (by the French) much-wished-for improvement.
