(Continued)

The continuation of the address of His Ex- cellency Wu Ting Fang, Chinese Minister to the United States, recently delivered in Ana Arbor, Mich., United States is as follows

LAND AND CAPITAL.

It is generally laid down by economists that land, labour and capital are the three principal requisites for the production of wealth. No ane will say that a country can have too much land and capital. It is clear that land and capital are good things of which no country can have too much.

men

Why should we complain of having tod much of the third element in the production of wealth? 1 not labour a good thing? The truth is it is not the superfluity of labour, but the dearth of labour, tint is detrimental to the interests of a country. It is currently reported that in many sections of this country, especial. ly in the farming districts, there is a great demand for labourers, which cannot be sup- plied. This clearly shows that, there are not labourers enough to meet the needs and requirements of the country. Some labour- ing

in this country make the mis- Lake of supposing that, the amount of wages to be divided among the Inbourers in the coun- try is a constant quantity. According to this theory, it is to their interest to shut others out, so that they have more wages to divide among themselves. But this is a wrong assumption.. Labour produces wealth. The more wealth labour produces, the greater will be their op-- portunities. Every industry that comes into 'existence creates a demand for labour. Tako the California fruit indasiry for example. It is true that it gives work primarily to those who work in the groves. But consider the thou. sands outside, who handle the products before they reach the consumers; the packers, the shippers, the train hands, the men that load and unload the cars, the jubbers, and the frait- sellers on street corners, all making their living more or less out of the mising of fruits. The same may be said of every application of labour, which scatters benefits far and wide. But it may be asked: What is to prevent The following clipping from the Dayton over production?" Over-production seems Daily Journal will doubtless interest many of to be the bugbear of some people. Can Our readers :-

"KING" O'KEEF.

David O'Keefe was known in the Oriental trade as "King" O'Keefe of Yap, which island he virtually owned, When O'Keefe first landed at Yap 30 years ago the cannibal natives thought him a demi-god on account of his white skin and inade him their king. He built up a profitable trade to Hongkong, and owned two barks that traded between Caroline and Chinese ports, Last June he went to Hong- kong with sora and other native produats, from which point he sent his wife in this city a check for $1,500. Alter leaving Hongkong his vessel disappeared and is supposed to have been, losì in a ston

"King" O'Keefe was 56 years of age and a native of this city,

Many Hongkongites will remember that Cap. O'Keefe left here in his staunch little schooner the Santa Cruz in May last for Yap, and according to latest reports from that island he had not put in an appearance up to October.. He has been "lost' many time before, how ever, and we should not be at all surprised to see the Santa Crus sail into the Harbour any day. We learn that his relatives have been making enquiries as to his whereabouts at the United States Consulate herb, but Mr. Rublee has no news of his adventurous countrymen.

COMBATING MALARIA. Remarkable testimony as to the possibility of combating malarial fever. by modern scientific methods is afforded by a letter which Major Surgeon Gorgas, the Sanitary Officer of Havana, has written to a member of the Liver pool School of Tropical Medicine. Losing no Rustomjee, B R.G.A, 34th, Coy., Of time in abstract discussion on the matter, the Commanding Americans started to work at once to clear out mosquitoes in Havana The result is declared to have been wonderful. Surgeon Gargas writes that for the first time since 1762 Havana has been free from yellow fever in October, while malaria has decreased more than one half. He adds also hat Mr. Le Prince, who is directly in charge of the anti-mosquito work, estimates that mosquitoes have decreased go per cent. by the operations, as compared with the same time last year.

veniences of life will be within the reach of not" only the rich but also of the general mass of people. We are all consumers, We cannot have too many of the good things of life. I am sure that even the working men in this country, who are intelligent, if they study the question dispassionately and carefully, will see that in stead only good comes to thens from abundance. ALL NATIONS SHOULD BE TREATED ALIKE.

In any case it will be found that the presence of Chinese labourers is not detrimental to the interest of this country. If however, it be can- sidared advisable to legishite. against the com ing of labourers to this country, let such a law be made applicable to all Asiatics and Eur- opens as well as Chinese.

The aim of the American government at first was only to regulate, limit and suspend the coming of Chinese labourers. For this purpose, three high commissioners, one of whom was the distinguished president of your university, were sent to China to negotiate a treaty with China. Your president will bear me out that, the Chinese government was very unwilling to make such a treaty, aud only consented after a great deal of persuasion. The treaty thus concluded" expressly states that "the limitation shall be reasonable, and shall apply only to Chinese who may come to the United States as labourers, other classes not being included in the limitation."
