SIAM AND ITS AFFAIRS.

Inspired by a letter from its Peking cor respondent The Times, on May 21, had something to say

the

e.progress an article the

of Blam. In the paper gives a few hints on how Siam might

become prosperous. giam, like other

countries, finds the path of progress ocatly to tread, and it seems to be generally acknowledged that, if she is to advance rapidly along the way on which she has entered with such good will, she must obe taifi an additional revenue. Some saving might, perhaps, be effected by applying to, other objects a portion of the comparative- ly large sums which are now expended upon armamente. The only purpose for which a' military force is at present required is the preservation of internal order, and this

purpose might, in the Cheap Host

observers, "be". attained mor

than

more by the actual system. On the other hand- better capitation and improved education are urgently needed. The waste of life throught diseased which might be prevented or of which the ravaged might be reduo-d by elementary measures of public health, is up great au seriously to hamper the econo- mic development of the country by limit ing the supply of labour which is required for making railways and roads, and without railways and roads the natural wealth of the country must remain almost inaccessible to commerce. In the capital itself, with its fundreds of thousands of

sun, the chief water supply is afforded by the river and the canals, which are, of courge, contaminated by sorage. The Siamese maintain that the necessary revende should be provided by a modification of the existing commercial treaties, which were made, it need hardly be said, when expendi- ture upon objects of general utility was duheard of in Oriental monarchies. They ask that the import duties, which cannot exceed three per cent, ad valorem under the subsisting treaties should be raised to seven- and-a-half-per cent. Our merchants, upon whom far the largest share of the proposed increase would fall in the first instance, do not

ot deny the justice or the expediency of the change in principal. With a fairness and a breadth of view which do them credit,

they are ready for a bargain with Slam. They would not resist an incresse in the daties upon certain conditions. They ask that in return for such an increase Siam should undertake the removal of the bars which obstruct the month of the Mensm- so as to make the port accessible to ocean steamers, and that she should improve the communications with the interior. The reduction in the cost of transit which these changes would effect would compensate to some extent, for the rise in the import du

ties.

the

They ask further for the abrogation - e antiquated provisions in the old. treaties which forbid British subjects-to- buy or to rent houses, land, or plantationa outside a limited zone about Bangkok.

We are not told what is the attitude of the Siamese to the first of these conditions. Presumably the King and the Government. are as sensible as any optsiders can be of the advantages which improved commnui- cations would bring to the trade and there. fore, to the finances of his country. They

.....

oxpress their readiness to accept the second condition, but only in return for a further concession upon our part of grave political moment. They will grant it, they say,

if we will relinquish the extra-territoriál tights of our Asiatic subjects in Northam Bism. These meu are about 15,000 in ber, and they are for the most part Burmese Shans of high intelligence. Like all the beat of the Akistid races who are under the British Crown, and notably like the great majority of our ladian fellow-subjects, they take great pride in their British pattonality and the rights which it confers upon them.

enjoy under it is limited by the right of the HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS

British Consul at Chiengmai to transfer cases from the Court where the Siamese Judge administers Biamese law into his own Court. The Burmese Shans complain that, oven with this safeguard, the limited jurisdiction of the Sismeso is a grievance to British subjects, and they haye petition- ed the British Government to restore the fall powers of the Consular Court. The Siamese Government, on the other hand, demand unfettered jurisdiction over the Shans, and it is in consideration of our Asent to this demand that they offer to grant us the freedom of settlement which

we desire. Our Correspondent says that it is a demand which cannot be agreed to lightly. We should be inclined to put it more strongly. The Siamese themselves do not pretend that the reform of their laws and of their administration has gone far enough to entitle them to ask for jurisdiction over Europeana. We cannot, in immediate proximity to our Indian Empire, tipulate for one kind of justice for ourselves and for another, and admittedly an inferior kind, for our Asiatic fellow-subjecta. Slam, we gladly recognize, has done a very great deal to raise the standard of justice in her dominions within recent years, and we may be sure that M. Padoux, the accomplished French diplomatist who now fills the office of Legislative Adviser and acte as.one of the Judges of the Appeal Court, will spare no gains to bring about further reforms. But until promise in this domain has ripened into performance, and Siam can assert with truth that ber Iowa and her judiciary are permeated with European conceptions of impartiality and of justice, we cannot con. sent, for any concessions in other matters, to amplify her jurisdiction over the Burmese

subject of the British Crown.

THE SOUTH MANCHURIAN

RAILWAY.

Reported Charges Against Russians.'

According to the Asahi the Japanese authorities concerned have made a state- ment to the following affect concerning the condition of the section of the South Man- churia railway north of Kunchulin Th damage to the line between Konchulin and Kwanchentre which is to be taken over from the Russians on August 1,Ţis beyond imagination, In the case of the portion lying between Changtu and Kunchulin, a cortain amount of damage may have been inevitable, as fighting took place in its vicinity, but there can be no excuse for the state of the section be tween Kunchulin and Kwanchentee. The Russian authorities may contend that the damage has been caused by mounted bandits, but although the latter may have removed such parts of the material as they could make money out of, it is impossible to suppose that they would expend the la- bour necessary to carry off great quantities of things of no value to them. Even if it be conceded, however, that the bandits were responsible for the damage, the Russian authorities cannot free themelves from their responsibility. It was their duty to protect the line against the bandits until it had boon transferred to the Japanese. Nothing can yet be said definitely as to what steps will be taken by the Japapese and Russian authorities concerning this matter.

"WHAT line of business do you think I had best adopt.?" asked a young lady aspirant for the stage of the leading man.' "Well," said the old stager, gazing critical- ly at her elegant costume. I should say the clothes line would suit you best."

TANSAN'S AVOY,

PURE, Exquisite in Flavor, Stimula ting without Reaction, this life-giving, Natural Mineral Water gushes out of the mountain-aide at Takaradzka, near Kobe, Japan.

PURITY: Its source is amid hard volcanic rock, beyond reach of contact with any human being, and it is conveyed by gravity through a rook-hewn tunnel and concrete aqueduct to a sheltered enclosure, where, without pumping, bailing, or touch of human hand, it is placed by. machinery in sterilized bottles and packed in cases for shipment; thus, from its initial source protecting the water against possible taint of any kind, Percolating through several strata of virgin rock, It is saturated with their unsullied-mineral properties, and no chemical skill can duplicate the living Tanean any more then the laboratory can evolve a living tree.

;

FLAVOR. Tansan gladdens the palate with a cast peculiar to itself, clean, crisp, novel, and delicious. Its appetizing taste emacks of satisfaction, without savor of a feeling of fulness, however freely indulged

ta.

TANSAN is Nature's own distillation,

and because of its absolute purity it blends

with spirits, wines, stout, milk, and other

LIMITED.

MIDSUMMER

STOCKTAKING

liquors without altering the natural flavor, SWEEPING

cept to unfold it.

STIMULUS. Tansan is refroshful, and, by reason of its native qualities, it excites the appetite and stimulates the nutritive functions. It is persistently regulative without being laxative, and it eliminates from the problem of life the ailments attributable to the liver and kidneys.

The supply is inexhaustible, being an evon dow, entirely independent of surface conditions of a wet or dry season, and there will never be necessity nor excuse for the artificial manufacture of Tansan, so that it will be forever free from the obnoxious taste peculiar to all salted and fabricated waters. Visitors to the Spring find the entire plant open to inspection-there is nothing to conceal.

TANSAN conduces to rigorous Health. It is Loss Costly than a Restorative, DRINK TANSAN.

Outspoken Criticism

JOHANNESBURG, May 23. General Beyers, whose outspoken and hostile criticism of the Imperial Govern- ment has often brought him into conflict with the other Boer leaders, has again publicly stated that he is disgusted with the South African policy of the Cabinet." The Boer general says he is thoroughly convinced that no justice will be done to the Boer people as long as the Imperial element predominated at the Colonial

Office.

Addressing Het Volk, in the Pieters- burg (Transvaal) district, General Beyers said:-

"Do not forget that the majority of the British Liberals approved the Chamberlain- Milner policy before and during the war. They made no efforts to protest against this policy until Chinese labour was introduced. And even the Chinese labour question would have left them indifferent, but for the opportunity to use this question us an election cry. As soon as the coolie question is settled, British Liberals will loso all interest in South African affairs. Libe- rals always promise when they are in Oppo- sition. When they are in power they do nothing. Meanwhile, we must continue to agitate and work out our own salvation. Above all, we must continue to fight for our national existence. Remember the old Transvaal motto, Unity is strength.""

CEYLON JOURNALIST'S VIVID STORY OF

.SUFFERING.

HE TELLA How CUKE CAME AT LAST THROUGH

DR WILLIAMS' PINK PIL'S.

MR. Wade Do Wiese ofe most popular Sandard one of the most popular young journlists in Ceylon, and his articles and reports on turf and sporting matters are read and enjoyed by hundreds through out the lougth and breadth of the islan

Tét there was a time when Mr De Niese lost all interest in sport and in most other things, a time when life seemed a misery instead of a joy. 'Semo years ago I con. tracted Mulrini Fever badly,' he exp ained. The result was a general breakdown in my health I became deadly pale in colour. My appetite disappeared completely and I could not bear the sight of food. I was subject to alt oks of dizziness. In time my skin turnel yellow. just as if I had jaun- dice. My sight bocame dim. I could not seo anything plainly before me. If I picked up a paper to read it seemed as if there were stars and bright spots floating between my eyes and the print. My blood became impure and watery. Altogether T was wrotchelly bad.
