HOW TO TELL cLEoIlARGARINE.

Mrs. Caroline FL. Dali tells the
Boston Transcript how to distinguish
between butter and oleomargarine.
as follows: Snow, no person wit h
keen sense of taste can be deceived
about oleomargarine. Butter is pure
oil. Put little in warm place,
and see how quickly it liqnifes. If
the temperature comes close to boil
ing, the butter is oiled and unfit for
food. Try the same experiment with
oleomargarine. IL will not harm it,
and you will find it difficult to melt
it if you drop it in boiling water. 1t
will dissolve like tallow, rot like but.
ter. 1t also cuts like tallow, with a
sort of metallic CLINT. Oleomarga-
rinp, ifsfavored with true butter and
made into prints, always keeps the
priat in the original clear lines. You
can handle it without crushing 1t.
It seems as it had just come off
ice"

The Springfield Republican thu

The Springfield Republican thus
sums up the advantages Of the far
mers occupation: There are ad-
vantages in being a farmer that he
ought to think of these times. His
lot may be hard work and no end of
it, but he is the only man in the
country who can command safety.
The foreman farmer has always the
assurance of his living, while he is
equally sure that what he produces
will be wanted for others. And if
times are hard and prices low, be
doesn't have to shut mp shop, fold his
unwilling hands, and see his proper
tY depreciate in idleness, as many a
manufacturer does. He does not
need TO venture highly, and if he
makes no brilliant profits he runs no
risks. 1t is estimated from actual
figures that out of 1000 traders, but
vsxsn can acquire wealth.

PATCHING THE RESTRICTION ACT.

Congressman Budd has introduced bill
to patch up the Chinese Restriction Act.
Something of the kind is needed. The
synopsis of the bill published represents it
as adequate, and as closing all the breaches
the customs authorities and the Courts
have found in the present law, and we
Judge that it quite fills the demand. 1t
requires the certificates to be 30 full and
detailed as to establish beyond question
the right of the traveller to land, and calls
for all such documents to bear the indorse-
ment of our own Consul at the port of de-
parture. To this clause the Chinese Gov.
eminent will, of course, object but it
would appear 20 be reasonable. If there is
no fraud in the certification, if the immi-
grant is honestly merchant or a student,
the Consul's Endorsement will further,
rather than retard, the landing Instead
of 90 Chinese laborers," Mr.. Budd's bill reads
"Chinese and Monaghan laborers.' Such
clause will dispose Of the question of the
foreign citizenship of the immigrant, and
meets the objections of the Massachusetts,
decision. Another important provision of
the new bill is to require the deportation
of those who gain admission under plea of
engaging in mercantile pursuits and then
abandon them. Over this clause there
will be unquestionably hot contest. But
of what earthly use is it to exclude an OBJ
jectionable class if it can by false pretense,
made manifest by subsequent conduct,
gain privileges against which the law is
especially directed? Another important
feature of the bill is that which prohibits the
excluded class transit through the country
from another country en- route to China or
elsewhere. This section appears harsh,
but unless it is adopted, or the passage of
such persons made under guard, there will
be left in the restrictive scheme fatal gap.

BLOW FOR BLOW.

1t appears that Germany now not only
prohibits the introduction of American
pork, but forbids absolutely the transporta-
ton through the Empire of American hog
products in sealed cans. This is, Consul
Mason asserts, to protect German dealers.
The cry of diseased pork is mere clap-trap,
intended to mask the real purpose. In the
light of these facts the country will ap-
prove the retaliatory resolution of Repre-
sentative Townshend, prohibiting the i'm
portation of any goods from Germany
which, upon the advice of exports, the
President shall hold to be injurious to
health. This is case, evidently, in which
the other-cheek doctrine has
no application. Nations are more likely to
give blow for blow. The President in his
late message has indicated that retaliatory
policy would please him, aud that he will
enforce it, if authorized.

pAUpER IMMIGRATION.

The Secretary of the Treasury in his
recent report points out the need for FUR
ther legislation to prevent the introduction
into the United States of pauper immi-
grants. lunatics, idiots, convicts, and per.
sons unable to take care of themselves,
without becoming a public charge" The
heavy immigration of this character last
spring and summer aroused the people to
the necessity of checking it. A regulation
was found which exists under
a statute, and makes it the duty of the
Treasury Department to refuse landing to
all such immigrants. But it appears that
the law under which the supervising
boards or commissions of immigration
must act, provides no penalties for its
violation. The recommendation of the
Secretary appears to be wise one; he
proposes that owners of vessels shall be
subjected to a penalty for transporting
to our shores the characters to whom
the law denies the right to land.
This penalty should be made a
lien upon the vessel. 1t should be large
enough to defray the expense of care and
deportation. The surplus of penalties
collected should go toward the creation and
maintenance of fund for the especial
purpose of deportation and of temporary
care of pauper immigration. Judge Folger
very properly-in the light of the immi-
grafton of last summer-manifests justiti-
able irritation on behalf of the United
States over the acts of Governments which
seek to discharge their pnuper aluices upon
our soil. He says: "It occurs that alien
paupers and others in INDECENT circum-
stances have arrived from Europe, whose
passage money and other expenses incident
to the voyage, and but little more, were
paid by the respective Governments or
municipalities from which they came, or
by voluntary associations abroad. They
are liable to become public charge upon
the communities in which they land, unless
cared for awhile by the Commissioners, and
as soon as may be sent back where they be.
long. Such of these as were found in
capable of Helf-support have, as far as
practicable, been returned. Such practice
by foreign authorities, whether of high or
low degree, is discourteous, if not acorSe,
and this department has sought, through
the State Department, to persuade them
to an abandonment of it; it is feared
without full measure of success.
