CHAIRMAN FORD of the congressional committee which is Investigating immi- grafton matters at New York intends to ask for temporary remedial measures until such time as congress can get at the matter. MT Ford declares that the laws intended to prevent the influx of pauper immigration and contract labor are prac- tically dead letter It is this pauper con tract labor, which republican manufac- turers like the Barbours and Carnegie en- ploy at the lowest living wages, that is the curse of American labor. The hypocrisy of protection that has such champions as these men is its own revelation.

PRIVATE DETECTIVES.
Shat . Veteran Police Oficer Thinks o
Them aud Their Work.

Them and Their Work.
Speaking of the professional detect
ives, a veteran ex-policeman remarked
TO me that "they appear to have be-
come as indispensable necessity in
the civil service as spies are in the
military service in time of war;" And
then he went on to say: There are
different kinds Of detectives The legit-
innate class are all well enough-I
mean those officially employed, and
those of the reputable and honorable
detective agencies, whose business it is
to ferret out crime. These appear to
be necessity. and generally do good
and useful work. But there is another
class sofdetectives-scandal-mongering of
detcctives--employed by certain 'pri-
vate agencies, that are simply villain.
ous. 1t takes smart man to be sue
cessful detective of the reputable
kind, but to be q detective of
the private agencies refer TO
man must have not only n
certain kind of smartness, but he must
of necessity be a very mean whelp-a
sneak and hypocrite of the very
worst kind. A downright honest man
can't be detective Of that sort, no
more than man Of veracity can be a
successful liar. You see his very busi-
ness requires him to be rascal and
man of false pretenses. And for the
reason that such detective must of
necessity be dishonest man. it is
never safe to rely too implicitly upon
his word. He is too anxious to make
out case against the man he is se-
crctly dogging and watching to quail.
ify him for disinterestcd witness.
and the testimony of none of
these private detectives should ever
be taken in court, or accepted
anywhere else, unless it can be verb
fed by that Of credible witnesses
who are not detectives. They are
generally the greatest liars out of Jail.
The good name of no reputable person
should ever be placed at the mercy Of
these private detectives. and there
ought TO be law for the protection Of
private character from their assaults" J."
