THE NATURALIZATION AmENpMErr.

The new bill to modify the naturaliza-
ton laws does not appear to have virtues
strongly commencing it. The thought of
the hour is in favor of restricting instead
Of enlarging naturalization privileges.
The new bill proposes to admit the foreign
born to the privileges and duties of citizen
ship after three years residence, but to ex-
elude him from the exercise of the right
Of suffrage until-as now provided res
idence of FIVE years has been attained.
The provision is added that the applicant
shall be able to speak the English Ian
guage, with what degree of proficiency is
not stated. The purpose of the measure is
not clear; just what is to be gained by it
does not disclose itself to us. There is
virtue in the provision that an affidavit
testiiying to the good moral character and
the law-abiding disposition of the alien
shall accompany the petition, but it would
be better if several such afiidavits we're re.
quired, and the character of the atlantis
certified to by some official directly re-
sponsible to the people So far as the
right to vote is concerned, there is no
change proposed. Whether there will be
anything gained by imposing the duties of
citizenship upon the alien who petitions
for its privileges, short of the voting pro
baton, is the question At first view we
do not discover what is to be attained. 1t
will of course affect property transmission
b. aliens in States where restrictions are
imposed in that direction upon that class
it viii enlarge the lists of those liable to
be called to duty by the Government 1t
might have tendency to attach aliens
fitted for citizenship by character and
uniform good behavior, to the country, and
make them more studious of the principles
Of free government But the people will
look upon the measure-and justifably-
with suspicion and as calculated to relax
rather than strengthen the existing natural
ization laws. 1t will certainly become an
interesting topic for comment, should it
reach stage when its passage will be
asked for. In the present short session,
however, crowded as it is with so much
matured business, it is not likely that the
bill will be reached.

SINGULAR CHURCH ORDER.

The order of the Cincinnati Archbishop,
as telegraphed yesterday, forbidding Cath
olics to sing in churches of differing faith,
promises to raise breeze among profess
sional musicians. This class sing in choirs
as business; with them it is not devo-
tional exercise, but labor for hire. To pro-
hibit such as are Catholics from plying
their vocation in other churches, is to cut
off the means to a livelihood for the great
mass of them, since the Catholic singers
outnumber the Catholic churches able to
hire them. One, tenor Of some promi-
hence in Cincinnati, has found it necessary
under this Decree to choose between bread
and butter for his family and obedience TO
the authority of the Church. He has wise
ly decided in favor of physical need and
domestic duty. From the priestly stand
point, his accommodation, should it fol-
low, will imperil his souls salvation, but
from the standpoint of non-conformists the
tenor will be looked upon as heroic and
manly in his revolt.
The world at large has nothing to do
with the internal economy Of any church
each has the right to govern and discipline
its members as it may choose, within the
law of the land but that the Catholic
Church will add strength to itself by such
intolerance as that noted, no one can be-
lieve. If it had forbidden its singers prac-
ticing their art in vicious places; had
charged them not to prostitute
their art to the purposes of the
low concert hall, the vulgar variety theater
and the resorts of jewellers, under pain of
being "cut off," it would have had the
sympathy and moral support of the mass
OF peoples. But forbidding singers of that
faith to visit other places of worship in a
purely business capacity, will neither COM
mand the respect nor the silent approval
of the people. The Church in Rome may
be able to control its following in such a
matter-here it is not at all likely that il
can do so. 1t might as well carry its logic
forward, and forbid Catholic musical in
strument makers to manufacture them for
churches of other faiths. 1t might just as
well make still another logical advance,
and forbid Catholic shopmen to sell wares
and merchandise for use in other churches,
or by the members thereof. The exclusive
policy in the one case would be no more
intolerant than in the other. The use of
the human voice in song is a commodity
the possessor of a good voice hires it out to
use or sells its notes, precisely as the land
lord does his property, or the merchant
his goods. 1t is matter of business
nothing else; and the attempt to regulate
it by priestly device will, in the blaze OF
intelligence and tolerance of the age, COM
pletely fail.

THE INTERSTATE CoMMERcE BILL.


The dispatches say that the interstate
commerce bill is certain to pass both
houses of Congress. We do not accept this
statement as absolutely prophetic, As it
now stands the bill means such check of
shipments of produce from points far distant
from market, as to inhibit their movement.
That Congress will permit such an injustice
seems scarcely possible, yet the dispatches
speak of it as assured. The bill might well
be entitled an Act to put an end to the
marketing of California products, by a pro
cess of grading through rates up to the
standard of local and way rates, which
of course means the end of through ship
ments at rates that will leave to the pro-
ducer any margin of profit, since the lines
must earn their support chiefly from local
traffic. To that abandonment or raising of
through rates the transportation companies
will be driven, in the opinion of Senator
Stanford, who, it will be conceded, thor
oughly understands the question, and
knows whereof he speaks when he declares
that the transcontinental lines cannot exist
upon a uniform tariff measured by the
through rate, and therefore the latter at
anything like the present scale would
cease. The suggestion is made that in
matter of such vital moment to the trade
and producing interests Of California, the
representatives of those interests should
: take some action expressive Of their senti-
ments regarding it. The San Francisco
Alto doubts if such expression would do
much good, because the bill being
aimed at the " railroad head" there
is such very large class of
people who wish the blow delivered, on
the general principle that TO punish a rail-
way corporation is justifable under any
circumstances. But the fact is, the pun
ishment in every case of that kind is ulti-
mately visited upon the people. The in
ter-dependent relations of transportation
and production and trade are such, that
there can be no serious injury to one that
will not be reflected in the other The
anti-railroad advocates assume that all
ooerciye measures applied to railways are
beneficial to the people. But practice and
theory are at outs ON that point The
railways have not suffered in any part of
the country by reason of disarrangement
Of tariffs, that the country has not equally
taken punishment. Under the bill, says
the Attd the price of freight car, con-
veying ten tons, from San Francisco to
New York would be $4,000 Our fruit
growers have been voluntarily promised it
for $500. At the Reagan rate an orchard
ist will have to sell the land his fruit grew
on to pay freight on its product" OF
course such operation would speedily de-
feat itself 1t would appear that such re-
suits demonstrable by argument ought to
command halt in the demand for the pas
sage of the measure
