A WONDERFUL ACT.

Assembly Bill No. pa, introduced by
Mr.. WATSON of Mono, is quite remark
able measure. It is described as an Act to
amend Section Is, 647 of the Penal Code,
relative to vagrants. 1t begins by defining
Migrants, and it certainly makes the def
milton broad enough. every person Tex
'cept California Indian) without visible
"means of living, who has the physical
liability to work, and who does not, for
"the space of ten days, seek employment,
'nor labor when employment is offered
him; every healthy beggar who solicits
aims, as business /; every person who
''roams about from place to place without
"any lawful business; every itinerant
tstreet hand organist, musician, or singer
every idle or dissolute person, or associ-
90 ate of thieves. who wanders about
&c the streets or highways at late or unusual
"hours of the night, or who lodges in
''any barn, shed, shop, clubhouse, or
"place other than as is kept for
"lodging purposes, without the permission
"of the owner or party entitled to the pos
session thereof; every lewd and disso-
flute person who lives in and about houses
"of ill-iame, and every common prostitute
"and common drunkard. is vagrant.

sKoBELoFF'S VICTORY.



At last General Skobeloff has beaten the
Tekke Turcomans out of their desert fort
ress of Cock Tepe, and their defeat appears
to have been crushing. These wild horse
men have shown that they can fight with
desperate bravery and persistence behind
intrenchments, but when deprived of a
cover they are incapable of more than
dashing charges, which are easily with
stood by European troops, and which lead
to nothing but slaughter. Now that the
Tekke Turcomans have been routed and
their fortress taken and destroyed, they
will probably cease to oppose any formi-
dable resistance to the Russian advance
They are still capable of carrying on a
guerrilla warfare from the hills, and they
may harass Skobeloff's march considerably
in this way. For the time being, however,
their power is broken, and the prestige of
the Russian arms, which was seriously
lowered by the previous successes of the
noulads. is restored.

HERpING IN TIE CITIES.

The report of the Immigration Commits
sioners Of New York shows that nearly
half Of the immigrants landed at that
point during the year have remained there.
Out of 800, 600 immigrants, New York re-
tanned 1000, while of the remainder
6S, 600 went East, and III, 600 West. The
percentage going to New England is sur
prising, and contrary to the general sup
position that the West attracted almost all
the more recent immigration. The most
unsatisfactory exhibit, however, is that in
regard TO the great number who have
strved in New York. The majority of
item will clearly retain their foreign habits

least generation be amalgamated. They
find colonies of their countrymen already
established in New York, and they join
them. The will hasten to become natural

and they viii strengthen the alien
elements whose increase 10 bccom.
ing every year more menacing
to American institutions The foreigners
naturally and easily fall under the con-
troll of demagogues, and swell the majorities
with which the various thieves and knayes
who succeed one another so regularly in
New York municipal politics retain their
hold upon the treasury and the spoils.
The natural increase of American citizens
Is swamped and outnumbered by these
great hordes of alien immigrants, and all
attempts at political reform prove futile
when the agents and instruments OF the
demagogues are too ignorant to compre-
bend the arguments addressed to them,
and too alien to care straw whether the
republic survives or perishes. 1t is of
course impossible that patriotism should be
imported, or that it should be assumed
without a previous understanding of the
country and the form of government.
Consequently these swarming immigrants
represent merely an ignorant and unpa-
triotic political power, and it would be
strange indeed if such power was not EN-.
ployed for bad ends.

This is quite an appalling catalogue, and we
fear that there are very few persons who
might not at some time come within its
elastic and comprehensive provisions.
If everybody who "roams and IVAN
ders" without visible means of self
support, or who refrains from work
for ten days, are to be classed as
Migrants, every summer camping party
would be liable to arrest, and every
traveller and tourist, and in fact almost
everybody who was not steadily employed
at some mechanical occupation. Mr..
WATSON proceeds to classify his Migrants.
They are to be known as First Glass Va
grants, Second Glass Migrants, and Third
Glass Migrants. A First Glass Vagrant is
one who has sense and candor enough to
perceive and admit his .vagrancy, and who
goes and delivers himself up, to be dealt
with according to the law. A Second Glass
Vagrant is one who, being a vagrant, re-
fuses to acknowledge it, and has to be ar
rested and convicted. a Third Glass Va
grant is one who, after having been con.
victed, returns unrepentant to his vagrancy
All these classes are to be employed on
! public works, but only the first and second
are to be paid anything. Thirty cents a
day is to be the exhilarating stipend of No.
l, the Voluntary Vagrant, while No 2, the
| 4 Y - 10
upon fifteen cents, and No. 3, the Con-
victed Vagrant, is to have nothing at
all. It is an ingenious project, take it
in ALL but we fear that it viii not work
we'll. Mr.. Wasson has, in the first
place, made his definition OF va.
grancy far too sweeping. Why is he
SO vindictive against the itinerant must
clans, for instance? Time was when their
class was honored and welcomed in bower
and hail. They are the melancholy relics
of the ancient skalds or bards. Why
should they be declared Migrants As to
the project for classification and work
and remuneration, it would not answer.
The sturdy tramp would laugh at it, and
see no hardship in the conditions, while
the measure would permit of much vexa-
ticus and unrepublican espionage and in
QUESTION. We have no doubt that the au.
thor of the bill means well, but he has
mistaken the nature of the problem with
which he attempts to grapple. The Com
mittee on Public Morals will do well to
report against Assembly Bill No. pa.

to put the threatening postal card recently

printed yesterday, in the hands of detect.
ives, and to hunt the rascal down" who
wrote it. It is most insolent and
abusive composition, and the circumstances
surrounding it are such as to constitute a
very broad and clear trail to the perpe.
traitor. The man who will send threaten.
ing communication is invariably both a
coward and a sneak, and thoroughly con-
temptible, no doubt but that ought not
to affect the course of justice. and the fell
low who wrote and dispatched the card
referred to certainly deserves to cool his
heels in Jail, where he might learn that
