connected with tho coercive me- thods to which the men so strongly object. Attempts to establish rates of wages by law have, always proved a failure in tho past, and it is hardly to bo hoped that the Minimum Wage Act will be more successful,

even though it does not make compulsory the scale of wages settled by the District Boards. But the establishment of Courts prepared to orbitrate betreon masters and men stands on a different footing. In disputes bol- ween nations we have got so far as to establish an arbitration tribunal, the decisions of which are not compulsory save by the weight of public opinion. It, therefore, seems possible that the settlement of oívil disputes by similar tribunals is within the bounds of practical politica.

England and Conscription. It is quite probable that we are moving as a nation, in spite of public opinion, in that direction. The course of international poli- tics may contribute to our adop- tion of some form of conscription -the spirit of which has already appealed to some of our big colonies - and not the least offective lesson taught us was the tragio gloom and gnawing despair that followed on recent industrial paralysis. If such were the state of England in limos of comparative peace, what might be the aspect of things if wur had boon declared?

John French has more than a suspicion that the day is coming when the nation must solye tho problem of her military defence, and, distastoful though it may be to one who has for a long period appreciated voluntary services, it will be found that we must follow in the wako of continental countries and embrace conscrip- tion.

CAMELS FOR RUBBER ESTATES.

Camels on a rubber ostato ns. beasts of burden is decidedly a new venture, saya the "Ceylon Ob- server." The steamer Marquis Bac- quehem, which arrived in Colom- bo on May 23, however, lan lod two camels, in addition to a con- sigament of Scind miloh cows, for Messrs. A, Y. Daniel and Son, and those, it is understood, are for a gentlemen in the Kalutara district, who owns large rubber areas. It is stated that he intends employing the animals for draft purposes. The absence of suitable roads prevents the uSS of wheeled traffic and coolies have to be employed for transport purposes. The amount carried is, of course, small, and it is estimated that one' trip of the camels would be equal to a dozen/ooolios loads The camels were detained at Messrs. Keegel's yard until their depar ture for their destination, and needless to say attracted a good deal of interest, the Arab riders. also being a novelty in Colombo,

A large crowd followed them from the landing stage to Slave Island, The experiment is desidedly o | novel, one ; the results will be | watched with internet by planters.
