NEW GRANARY GROUND
Redeeming- Land in Once-Popnlous
Mesopotamia.
Continent Magazine.
An- army of Arabs, aome of them
stark naked, ply their small triangular
shovels and carry the dirt away on
their heads In small baskets. They
must be allowed to work In their tra
ditional way, ao neither the hod nor
the wheelbarrow can be introduced.
Settlements of workmen have grown
up In the neighborhood: but their con
tact with the works and ways of civi
lization has not greatly altered them.
I saw a Wltcn doctor, or wnaievar eioo
the Arabs call their magicians, per
form .incantations about one of the mat
huts. In addition to the agriculture
made possible by Irrigation there Is
sufficient rainfall to enable great herds
of sheep and cattle to be pastured on
the desert steppes. Be it remembered
that in this region are raised the Ara
bian horses, said to be the finest in the
world, and the big-tailed sheep and
long-haired goats which supply a con
siderable share of the wool and hides
of the world's markets, not to speak of
the extensive herds of camels which
graze on the camel thorn of the desert.
The transportation of the prospective
produce of this region Is a question
that arouses keen interest, because of
th international struggle for railways.
The Germans are pushing; forward the
Bagdad railway, although hampered by
lack of funda and the opposition of
other powers. Germany avowedly needs
Mesopotamia for her granary. Equally
aoes sne neea ior ner iiiuiuiiijiuk ujui
the cotton that can be grown here.
And likewise she needs the commerce
from Persian gulf ports, for which her
aggressive mercantile marine Is already
preparing by regular, though at pres
ent profitless, voyages to these waters.
That she cannot be permanently kept
from an outlet on th gulf may be ac
cepted as a foregone conclusion. Yet
a BrltiBh concern has a monopoly of all
the foreign carrying trade between
Bagdad and the Persian gulf, and
Great Britain has claimed exclusive
rights for herself on these waters, so
that today they are patrolled by a fleet
of British gunboats. The American or
Chester railway project, which has
been having rather a hard row to hoe
at Constantinople, also looks forward
to a share of the Mesopotamia trade.
The crux of the whol Mesopotamlan
question Is population. Provision Is
made by the new operations for an in
crease of 10.000.000 or 11.000.000 per
sons. These figures roll easily off the
pen. or glibly from the tongue; their
magnitude la apparent only after con
sideration. Her Is nothing less than
a project to add a new productive area
to th habitable world wlthn compara
tively easy reach of th great centers
of food consumption, that will furnish
a home and livelihood for as many
persons as there were in the states of
Ohio and Pennsylvania combined at the
time of the 100 census. Th total pop
ulation of Scotland, Ireland and Wales
would not be sufficient to supply the
quota called for. Even If all Egypt
with Its skill In Irrigated agriculture,
wer to be transported to Mesopotamia
ther still would be room for a large
lmmgration from India. New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut combined
have not so great a popula
tion as will be provided for by this
wonderful land-redemption scheme.
Neither have Indiana. Illinois and
Michigan put together. Twice the
total population pf Canada In 1901
would not suffice to' replenish these
now desolate but soon to bloom
stretches of thirsty soil.
Only by heaped-up comparisons of
this sort Is It possible to get any con
ception of the vnstness of the enter
prise created by Sir William Wllreocks,
and now being pushed to completion by
the Turkish government.
Mesopotamia spells prosperity and
Independence for 10.000,000 persons;
but who are they? They will not come
from Asia Minor, for there are to be
found other great atretphes of land
which may be added to the world's
harvest fields, when once the govern
ment gives attention to the matter.
The Armenians might find this an out
let, expect that they will come only as
merchants and bankers fl In these pur
suits thev will find the Jewish com
munity of Bagdad already on the
scene, as they have been since th days
of th exile. Leaders in Jewish coloni
zation projects have had elaborate
plans for the settlement of Mesopo
tamia by the Jews; but the practical
failure of th Jew as an agriculturist
in Palestine, and the determined oppo
sition of the Turkish government to
any Jewish colonlzaton. render this
scheme out of tho question.
Perhaps a few thousand of the
Kurds, hardy and Industrious, will
move down from their mountain fast
nesses, but the climate Is probably too
hot for them. A reKion where the ther
mometer shows a variation of a hun
dred degrees In a year Is not Invltng
to persons accustomed to a cold cli
mate: this fact is an almost Insuper
able barrier to European industrial im
migration also. The Arabs who are
already on the ground will settle down
to agriculture, and under better condl
. hi MMiiini mnm ranidlv. The
roving Bedouins must also ultimately
come to the same wrm
grantli.tr the lar;i-5Sl possioio ..i.....e--tlon
of Bedouins, population will still
be Inadequate and for a long- time In
efficient. . . C1
. . I was minted by Sir
William Wlllcocks when I raised the
population question wun
i ton of the Himalayas
with a two-anna piece In his hand, and
he will find a native wwi . -
his elbow." In other words, he trusts
to the law of supply and demand, es
pecially in this day of the increased
mobility of labor and P?Pulati?n'kl.h
Here, however, enters th Turkish
government to say tflat nobody may
settle in Turkey who is not willing to
become a Turkish subject. The farmer
of India and Egypt may grumble at
Rrltish rule, but he is not going to i
change it for Turkish. If th kaleido
scope of Eastern politic nut. Germany
into Mesopotamia, or Great Britain, th
problem will be mor easily lvf
And undoubtedly th potentialities of
?X reSeemed land Intensify the strug
gle of the great powers for P"acy
Tn this corner of th world, which has
one more become, by the slow turning
o? history's wheel, a prize for imperial
dominion, even as It was when the
Brlt'sh Isles and the German forests
wer occupied by painted savages.

peace and comfort behind the lines
which form the "front" of their re

tation to act under such conditions of

been too great to be resisted, espe
cially as motives of gain In power,

course to be pursued. Under the new
state of affairs, however, there will

Rules of the Rothschilds.
Munsey's Magazine.
One day In September, nearly a hun
dred years ago, an old Jew lay dying In
a gabled house that bore the device of
a red shield in the ghetto of Frankfort-on-the-Maln.
Grouped around his bed
were five stalwart sons. In a firm voice
this father In Israel admonished his
children to be loyal to the faith of
Moses; to remain united to the end: to
intermarry, and to obey their mother In
all things.
"Observe these rules," he declared,
"anC you will be rich among the richest,
an the world will belong to you."
Such was the earthly valedictory of
Mayer Amschel Rothschild.
As everybody well knows, that death
bed prophecy came true long ago. The
world's only billionaire dynasty is evi
dence of its wisdom and foresight. Pre
miers, cabinets, whole royal successions
have risen, had their brief Imperial day,
and tottered to their fall; kingdoms of
trade have developed and declined: but
the reign of the Rothschilds has con
tinued. Their scepter has been gold;
their royal decree, th bank-note.
