The Times this morning says of tho Nom.
bers who voted for the River and IIarbor bill:
"fheir action was not benevolent or disinter-
ested They put their votes where they
thought they would do the most good, Per-
haps they may find that they made a mistake.
Four years ago number Of misguided Repre-
sentatives made q Ike investment In local
popularity 1t did not pay them"
The HerdId says: 1.-THE Oklahoma bill ought
to pass. Ii does not encroach on any Indian
rights But II substitutes white men, women
and children for cattle and cowboys on un-
occupied lands, and that ought to be done as
quicklya as possible

Of all Government shall have no home or

come citizens, and therefore can have no
claim upon public hospitality or protection"
The World says, INTERVIEWS with the An.
archst leaders now under arrest In Chicago
indicate very clearly that these creatures are
the foes Of the Republic. They and their
bands should be treated precisely as Apaches
on the warpath."
The Sun says: "The wiser heads among the
workingmen see the impossibillty Of per-
manently getting ten hours pay for eight
hours work. This is n hard saying, but II Is al
ways better to say the truth. Work by the
piece on by the hour seoms to be the natural
conclusion TO which the matter must come"
The Say says; at will certainly be to the
credit of Chicago If It's police force shall
prove itself able, without the aid of militia,
TO restore order and put down so formidable
an outbreak as that brought about by the
crazy foreign Anarchists who infest the
city"

The PaH Mall Gazette says the re.
cent devilish doings of the Anarchists
in this country are chargcable to
Europe primarily, because Europe has
encouraged the emigration of just the
class of people who have caused all the
trouble. There is q good deal of truth
in this. When under the law prohibit.
ing the landing at American ports of
paupers and criminals from abroad,
the Government began to send such as
came over promptly back to the ports
from which they were shipped, for
eign powers Immediately started out to
nullify the law. They not only paid
the passage of their paupers and crimi-
mails, but gave them sufficient
sum of money to show upon land
ing that they were not liable to be-
come burden upon the public This
was neither friendly nor just But the
fault is not Europe's alone; the United
States must bear good share of IT,
