Enforcing the Law Under Dimculties.

Ell PAso, Tex, Oct. 27.-The task of en-
forcing the Chinese exclusion act proves TO
be no easy one along the Mexican frontier.
El Paso, Tex, and Paso del Norte, Mex, are
separated only by the Rio Grande, which is
at present practically dry, and is forbade
for ten months of the year. There are 200
or 500 Cinnamon in the two cities, AMI here
tofore they have crossed freely from one to
the other. Collector Magoffin is enforcing
the laws as fully as his small force of in
spectors will permit, but it is an easy matter
for the Chinese to violate them. Moreover,
Cinnamon can easily come up the Mexican
Central railroad, or across the country from
Guaymas or other Pacific points, and ship
across the line into the United States. Col
lector Magoffin thinks the only effective plan
will be to register and photograph all China
men entitled to live in tho United States and
provide each with certificate which he must
show whenever called upon by the proper
officer. Chinaman found guilty here of vio-
lating the law suffers no penalty except to be
taken across the river, whence he can return
at his convenience.
