The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1879-03-06

The President sent message to The
House of Representatives March 1st, vetoiug
the bill restricting Chinese immigration. The
message regards the bill US sent from the
House to the Senate, limiting the number of
Chinese passengers who may be brought
to this country 10y any one vessel to fifteen,
this number not being fixed in any proportion
to the size or tonnage of the vessel or any
consideration Of safety, Us designed to reprcss
this immigration to an extent but little short
OF its absolute exclusion. But the Senate
amendment to the bill is far more objection
able, as it aims at, and in terms requires the
abrogation by the government Of articles five
and six OF the treaty with China commonly
called the "Burlingame treaty." The message
relates at length the fifth and sixth articles of
the treaty, showing the great advantages se-
cured to this country. Up to this time our
uncovcnanted hospitality, our fearless liberty
OF citizenship, our equal and comprehensive
justice to all inhabitants, whether they alb.
iured foreign nationality or not, our civil free
dom and our religious toleration had made all
the Chinese in considerable numbers had
made their lodgment Oh our soil. The sixth
article OF the Burlingalne treaty was designed
to afford adequate protection, under solemn
and definite guarantees, to the Chinese al
ready in this country and those vino shall
seek our shores. The President is deeply i'm.
pressed with the gravity of the question, but
regards the summary disturbance of solemn
treaty obligations Us fraught with just dis
advantages to the permanent interests of the
country. The message pays 4 high compli-
mcnt to the patriotic members of Congress,
and the President in asking the renewed at
tention OF Congress to this bill is persuaded
that, their action will maintain public duty
and public honor

wheat in few country markets. The arrivals
from abroad have been light Except offlour, last
Mondays returns showing only 3G 900 quarters
Of foreign wheat while the subsequent supply
up to Friday had not reached 1000 quarters,
chiefly American, Russia sending Us nothing.
The course Of business throughout the week
has been quiet but steady. Speculation is
wanting, but consumption continues. Prices
arc fully maintained for al descriptions, of
wheat. Russian varieties advanced & pence
to shilling per quarter Sales were not very
numerous, but the tendency has been to
wards a rise rather than Il fall and trade lost
much OF langtor prevailing for some months.
Rather higher rates have been dcmanded for
maize and inquiry wills thereby checked. Barley
oats and other feeding corn were dull, but late
rates were maintained. Sales OF English wheat
were $50 quarters, at 81 shillings pence per
quarter, against4s 49G quarters, at So shilings
8 pence per quarter during the same l.eriod
ofprevfous' year? Imports into the United
Kingdom for week ending February l5s7s, ,776

weights flour.
THE PRESIDENT IMPORrUNED.
Senators Sargent, Booth, Mitchell, and
Jones Of Nevada, lnd Representatives Will
Jams Of Oregon, Wren, Page and Davis aud cx-
Representative Phelps had conference with
the President February 18th for about an
hour and urged him to sign the bill restrict
ing Chinese immigration. Sargent in his ar.
gument, picturedthc evils, moral, commercial
aud national, which came with the Chinese,
reviewed their history in this country, and
showed the evil results of which their pres
cnce had been productive. He called atten-
ton to the deterioration of American labor
which existed wherever the Chinese H.: I
found their way. He also states veto OF the
bill might affect Republican Interests in Cal
ifornia disastlrously. All the gentlemen
made similar arguments, and called attention
to numerous petitions flom the West for a
rddence Of the Chinese, and presented Il
number just received. The President fire.
quentiy questioned the speakers. When they
had finished their arguments he stated he
too had received many appeals from people
in the West to sign the bill, and petitions
from the same and others not to- sign it. He
was glad to hear all he could on the subject,
and would carefully consider the arguments.
A majority Of the Congress delegates LETT the
President with the impression he would not
sign the BILL

The Potter MI i0risY Report.

o. Saturday March 1st,. Mr.. Potter
submitted his report in regard to inyestiga.
tlons past, which Was adopted by majority
Of the committee, six Democrats voting for.
and three Republicans against it. Gen. Butler
was absent. The cipher dispatches we're not
referred to. as they will form the subject
matter OF separate report. The minority
will present report. The report places no
reliance on the testimony of Anderson, jerks,
Mrs. jerks, Weber, and that class of witnesses,
and deals with the case on the general alleged
facts alone. The report is divided into three
parts. The first in regard to Florida, the
second in regard to- Louisiana, and the third
to the forged electoral certificate. Each of
the three points is elaborated at great length.
and concludes with finding that full effect was
not given to the electoral! votes of Florida and
Louisiana, that Hayes, Sherman, and others
encouraged this result that the second Ger.
titfcate Of Louisiana was forged as to two of
the names, Kellogg and Clark being priyqy
to it, and that Tldcn and Hendricks received
a true majority of the electoral vote and were
the real choice OF the people at the Presiden
tial election

majority: Purging' the county returns of
fraud, according to the decision apd advice of
tho A)elnlcratic attorpey >ikeperal they had 900
majority.
With regard to Louisiana affairs, the report
devotss the most attention to the Sherman let
ter. The majority report, it atatea, fails to re-:
port explicitly whether the testimony sus:
tained the charge that suclI q letter ,as Ander-
sons and .Weber.s: had been written: They,
the minority, emphatically declare that it docs
not, and that the palpable perjuries Of both

AZ to Presidential elections, the matter Of
choosing is by the constitution 50 exclusively
committed to State legislation that we sec no

t.on Of the majority, therefore, that the elec-
trnn of electors should be passed upnn by the
because federal legislation cannot deal with the
subject. We can imagine it would have been
satisfactory to the author of some Of the cipher
dispatches to have that court determine who
were the Presidential electors in South Caro-
lima, but in view of their testimony we

the :. cause of honest , elections
would necessarily be farthered by such a
change. The change needed is in the spirit and
temper OF the community the cultivation of
respect of law and right the recognition by
the strong Of the rights Of the weak, and when
progress is made in this direction we shall wit
ncss equal progress. toward purity at elections,
and not till then.

Ny soul today
Is far aWay,
Sailing the Vesuyian Bay;
Ny winged boat,
A bird ailoat,
Swims round the purple peaks remote
Round purple peaks
1t sails and seeks
Blue inl.ts and their crystal creeks,
Where high rocks throw
Through dceps below,
A duplicated golden glow.
Far, vague and dim
The mountains swim:
While on Vesuvius' misty brim,
With outstretched hands,
The gray smoke stands
Overlooking the volcanic lands.
Here Ischia smiles
Der liquid miles;
And yonder, bluest of the isles.
Calm Capri waits;
Her sapphire gates
Beguiling to her bright estates.

My rippling skiff
Float swift or slow from cliff to cliff;
With drcamful eyes
My spirit lies
Under the walls of paradise.
Under the walls
Where swells and falls

At peace lie,
Blown softly by
cloud upon this LIQUID sky.
The day, SO mild,
Is heavens own child.

The airs feel
Around me steal
Are murmuriug to the murmuring keel.
Over the rail
My hand trail
Within the shadow of the sail;
joy intense,
The cooling sense

With dreamful eyes
My spirit flies
where summer sings and never dies;
Oerveilcd with vines,
She glows aud shines
Among her future oil and wines.
Her children, hid
The cliffs amid
Arc gamboling with the gambOIjng kid.
Or down the walls,
With tipsy calls,
Laugh on the rocks like waterfalls.
