Case, Per Bot A Few days ago we quoted from a French contemporary some remarks on the alleged political danger of teaching the natives of asubject country the language of the ruling race. The danger, such as it is, is more than counterbalanced by the advantages. Looked at from a commercial point of view, however, advantageous as the policy may be in promoting the opening up of a country and increasing the volume of foreign trade, it is calculated to injure the fareiga middle- ma who is content to do business only in his owo language and neglects to require any knowledge of the vernacular. This is exemplified in the China trade, where the compradore system has reduced the foreign merchant to the position of à mere commis sion agent. We teach the Chinese language and our business methods, eg DST ESTEFEE, 6.96 $ 7.56 $0.00 cas lecting to make ourselves sequainted with
