The fifth resolution in the platform
adopted by the Republican State Conven-
ton demands "the rigid enforcement by
Courts of the spirit and letter of the
naturalization laws 1t is among the
first of the protests from deliberatiye poll
teal bodies, against the looseness with
which the naturalization laws are admin
istered. Such protests will multiply and
they must be heeded-the sooner the bet
ter. 1t is notorious that tor wears men
have been admitted to citizenship who had
no more conception or appreciation of the
principles of free institutions; who no
more comprehended the scheme of the Re-
public, or the privileges and obligations of
the citizen, and his relation to the laws of
the land, than of the internal policy of the
possible inhabitants of Uranus. The truth
is 1t is the exception, rather than the rule,
when the applicant for citizenship is ex-
amined and tested, as was originally con-
templated by the creators of the natural
ization laws.

presents the conclusion and truth of the
whole matter as the quotation we make

Everybody is opposed to Anarchists, Nihilists
ano all other lawless and disorderly immigrants,
and it was safe to jump on to them with both
Ieet; therefore it was done with much tom-tom-
ing to call attention to its. r. AHd on the Re
publican platform
Well, then, in view of this universally
of condemnation, why has the Democracy,
having the power and being in the seat OF
authority, failed TO propose any restric-
tions by which these Objectionable classes
can be kept from the American fireside =?
The Republican platform demands legis-
lation for their exclusion; that is "busi-
ness" not the beating of gongs Let us
hear how the Democracy will play from
that keynote.

IT is amazing GOODNESS on the part of
Senator Voorhees, to shout at this late day
that he was loyal to the Union cause in
the dark days of the rebellion. Can he
possibly think that the people of that pc
Rod, who still live, have lost their mem
cries? Can it be that the Senator forgets
the copperhead and rebel sentiments to
which he gave utterance, and how he
served the rebels well by abusing and OBJ
structing the heroes who were saving the
Union?

THE denunciation of the treaties nego-
tiated by the Democratic Administration
with China upon the question of restric-
ton of immigration, was timely and vigor-
Gus by the Republican State Convention.
The Bayard treaty is more than sham
1t is a step backward, an abandonment of
the little we have gained in the matter
The clause requiring issuance of return
certificate to every applicant who files a
list of property left behind valued at
$1,000 is a wide open door through which
the multitudes of China can pour into this
country at will.

PASSENGERS entering the metropolis
hereafter by passage over the Oakland
land ferry will be allowed to peacefully
pursue their course until they reach the
wharves-the hotel-runners have been ex-
cluded from the boats. Thisis a great and

Southern Company and put the runners
off of the ferry landing the municipal
authorities would be entitled to and re-
ceive the fervent blessings of the travelling

CAPTAIN E. C. DUTros, of the United
States Geological Survey, who has had
exceptional opportunities for observation
of Mormon rule in Utah and elsewhere,
gives it as his opinion, in an able paper in
the Forum for May, that if Utah were
made State hostile power would be
erected in the heart of our domain.
g Though the written instrument of the
Constitution might breathe the spirit of
Hamilton or Jefferson, the Mormon people
would breathe the spirit of Brigham
Young. 1t might be Republican enough

State would inevitably be hierarchic." Of
