the war.
For the eight months ending with August, 1906, the exports from the United States to China were in value $22,316,216, as compared with $47,300,996 in the corresponding months of 1901,

The English people is threatened in Great Britain by either physical degeneration or race. suicide, says Sydney Webb, the London pub-; licist and professor of political economy. He treats the inatter, in the London Times, from a purely economic standpoint, People will not marry because they can not afford it, and the burden of rearing and educating children to those who are married is too heavy to be borne. The consequence is a diminishing birth-rate amung the most desirable elements of the people. The dregs of the population, he mainusins, multiply-hence the danger of Jeterioration. Meanwhile immigrants from foreign countries have, large families and are supplanting the Anglo-Saxons.
