SENSIBLE VIEw.-The Statesman OF Janua-
~ Both contains very sensible article under
the title Of 1850, 900 for the Tyhees" If these
Japs are unable to pay their travelling expenses
let them stay at home. If it is necessary that
they should be toasted and feted, let the mer-
chants and business men who expect to profit
by their visit bear the expense. We consider
it little better than downright robbery for Con-
gress to msappropriate the public funds for
the purpose of toadying to travelling manag-
erie of japanese heathcns. We have too
much of the Asiatic laZaroni in this country
already, and instead of approprating money
to encourage immigration from that quarter,
we would be in favor of making liberal apprO-
priatons to get rid of the unprecedented scum
which is becoming an incubus on White labor
throughout the Pacific States and Territories.
1t is all very fine to talk about extending Amer
lean civilization over thirty millions of Japan
csc, etc, but we have about as much as we
can attend to in improving the civilization of
our own people; and Congressman who vote to
thus squander the money of the people should
be compelled to pay the sum ont of their own
pockets.
