but of the planter as such VINO VIII earnest
Nv consider the measure l have no fear.
He is as much interested in the passage OF
this amendment as the town folks are.
He is feeling the grip OF me Chinese as well
as they There Is a middle ground upon
which both can meet. The planter wants
Iayor. He is not interested IN having the
Chinese work off of the plant tlonS into all
the minor industries of the Kingdom. On
the other hand the towns do not MIND the
Chinese as long as they are on the planta-
lions. but to have the Chinese unload
themselves on the community at large Is a
drain both on planter and town people. IL
does the planter no good and 1t is ruin to
others, and a Constitutional amendment TO
reach and control this difficulty is no
- blow aimed at the chief industry OF the
country. oo
Out of a recent importation of over 600
Chinese, Hackfeld & Co. could not secure
some thirty needed for plantations. This
importation simply went to swell the
numbers of Chinese engaged in other
industries and to enlarge the Chinese
labor combination. The recent action
of Mr.. Glade, member OF that
house, regarding this Chinese question,
shows his sense. One could probably
come to some understanding with such
persons, but the Hon. Noble evidently in
tends to shut his ears to the whole ques-
ton he wants to know nothing more
about it.
The Hon. Noble wishes this measure
killed at once out of its regular course,
because it admits of class legislation
against the Chinese. Really the Hon.
Noble seems to have quite forgotten that
the Constitution itself, which, by the way,
he says he would not change or tamper
with, expressly shuts out the Chinese from
voting.
If that is not class legislation, l would
like to know what is? Would he have the
Chinese vote with others, or does he really
mean what he says? If he meant that
class legislation was a dangerous weapon,
and should never be resOrted to, except
when it became question of self-preserva
ton, then l agree with him, and that is
why would see this go to committee for
investigation; but for the Hon. Noble to
take the position that class legislation in
no case should be resorted to in dealing |
with the Chinese would have no support |
whatever throughout the country.

HOW to Stamp a Letter.

"Out of the millions of persons who
stamp letters daily but few know the
way to do the 1icking,'" remarked Mr..
ALI. Oldham, the stamp purveyor at the
postoffice, yesterday. & What is the
right way, ALI. ?'' queried listener.
''Why, the envelope ought to be licked,
not the stamp. If you lick the envelope
and then apply the stamp it will stick,
sure. If you lick the stamp you are
liable to carry away all the mucilage on
your tongue, or so much that the stamp
will fall off Many letter has reached
the Dead Letter Office because the sender
licked the stamp instead Of the envel-
louisville Courier Journal.

4Il0T0 Is always d great oCdI vi OcO
theory, in discussions of this kind, accom-
panied very likely with a good deal OF
common sense. Most persons would
say probably that if the common sense
is there it makes no great difference
about the theory. But bad theory is
always dangerous. 1t leads to bad prac-
tice. Most of the social outbreaks of the
day, outbreaks which threaten the per-
manence of our modern society, are due
to false theories. When legislator says
we must be as fair as circumstances per-
nit, he expresses bad theory, and the
natural consequence might we'll be,
under given circumstances, unjust
action. When minister says it may be
unjust to legislate against the Chinese,
but the experience of the nations shows
that it must be done, he makes danger
GUS concession, at the bottom of which
there must lie false or imperfect the
DRY. So in settling the Chinese question
any appeal to the law of nature, and conse-
quent attempt to justify anti-Chinese
legislation as part OF the struggle for life |
which is the law of nature, equally in |
volve false theory, and tend to lead to
unjust action. Of course, we do not sup |
pose that such expressions involve on
the part OF those who use them any
definite acceptance of the underlying
theory, but it still remains true that the
theory is implied, and just in SO far as it
is, every SUCH expression must be more
Or less dangerous.

The truth is we are under obligation
to be absolutely fair, and not merely as
fair as our interests may permit.
If it is unjust to legislate against the
Chinese, that settles the question. 1t is
absurd to say we must do it, whether it
is unjust or not. Such an utterance is
as repugnant to reason, as IL is to sound
morals We are all poor sinners, and
we do a great many things which we
ought not, but it is because we want to,
not because we must; and if anti
Chinese legislation admits of no better
justification than this specious "must,"
it is disgrace to US that we permit it at
all, and the sooner everything of the
sort is wiped from the statute book the
better for our good name. A justifca-
ton which fails to justify, in other words
to show its cause to be just, is a mis-
homer, and may as well be shown up for
what it is, an appeal to brute force.

Kingdom 1t is no part of the birth
right of a Chinaman or of anybody else
that he shall forever have the privilege
of entering the Hawaiian Islands. For
obvious reasons, it is IN general unde-
sirable to restrict immi gration. But if
restriction is necessary 10 the best in
terests of nation, it il ! III proper and
just to adopt it as a policy. In itself
there is no more injustice in excluding
person from country than in excluding
him from your house. If it is really re-
quired by the highest interests of this
country that the Chinese should be ex-
Guided from it, there is no reason why it
should not be done. The same thing
applies to English, Germans or Amer
leans.
The renewed discussion on the Chi
nese question yesterday was little pre-
mature It arose in connection with
Mr.. Kinney's proposed constitutional
amendment, which was very properly
referred to committee. The amendment
is an important one, for good or i'll, and
will be considered later.

Fortunately, however, the opponents
OF unrestricted Chinese immigration are
not reduced to an appeal to brute force,
and those who make this appeal di-
rectly or by implication, have mistaken
their defense. We are bound, in consid-
ering the Chinese question, to take into
account the rights of every one con-
cerned, without regard to race, and a
failure to do so is failure to do justice.
On the other hand, that expresses the
whole of our obligation. We are bound
to do no more. There is not neces-
sarily any injustice in excluding any
men or class of men from entering the

THE DAILY

THERE is a good deal of food for
thought in the impromptu discussion
with reference to the Chinese, which
came up in the House last week. It
arose in connection with the long petit
ton with which the House was assailed,
and the bill to limit the time during
which return permits might be used.
AS matter of fact, we believe in neither
the petition nor the bill. Not in the
petition, because it fails to make some
determinations, which it is important
should be made, and not in the bill,
because it is unjust and violates Gov
eminent contracts. It is, We think,
both unnecessary and inconsistent with
the good faith of the Government to
declare that the return permits already
issued shall be void after a certain date;
and it is unjust and unfair to the Chi
nese, who have been allowed to live and
acquire property and vested interests of
all kinds in this Kingdom, to limit the
time to a single year OF any visit
which business or pleasure or other mo-
tiyes may lead them to pay III their own
home.

There were many horses made famous
during the middle ageaL There was the
mythical Hrimfai Of Scandinavian myth
ology, the horse Of night. from whose golden
bit dropped the dews Of heaven; and there
was also Sleipnir, Odinf esghtfooted steed,
which traversed sea and land-the swift
wind from the eight divisions Of the globe
There were also various legendary steeds Of
great renown which bore the heroes Of story
and song. OF these, the most noted were
Aquiline, Raymonfs steed; Arundel, the
horsa,of Bevis; Bavieca, the Cd's war horse,
which was buried before the monastery at
valladoid; Brigliadors golden bride. Or
lando's famous charger; Crane, Siegfrieds
wondrously swift steed; Rosinante, Don
Qui1oe's skinny hack, and Aag.ro Clzvi-
emo, his "woodsn' pin wing horse"
Bayard, the horse Of the four sons OF Ay-
mar, was so accommodating that be would
grow larger or smaller as more riders
mounted him. His footprints may stin be
seen in the south Of France. Another famous
steed was Bsyardo Rinaldo's horse, which
was found In a cave guarded BY . dragon

IMMIGRANTS MALTREATED.
Shameful Frauds Practiced Upon Ignoranl
Foreigners by an Agent.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, July 11.-Three
months ago two Polanders, man and wife,
landed at Castle Garden. They were there
accosted by man who offered them en-
ployment in the country, they to receive
respectively $40 and IS for their services.
Each was required to sign contract, the
nature of which they did not comprehend,
but which covered period OF three
months at the terms stated and provided
that the money at the end of the term
should be paid, minus deductions
for ''necessaries purchased" and
with clause providing for forfeiture
of wages upon non-fulhllment OF
contract The Polanders affirm that their
employer was an agent OF Charles Far
sons, of North Hampton. They were ship
ped to a Franklin county farmer who paid
them only 50 for their united service and
discharged them without stated reason at
ter they had served the time OF contract.
Travelling on foot and begging food by the
way. they walked to Springfield where,
having lodged in police station Monday
night they told the story given.
Parsons, whose agent is believed to work
about Castle Garden among the lmml-
grants, is believed to receive from employ
ing farmers $40 per head for immigrants,
the former getting it back out OF their
dues The farmer gets his help without
cost and the agent by the alleged system
is enriched He has been several years en-
gagged in this traffic, and is believed
to have realized from it 800
per month. He issues a cir
cular t. farmers, in which he
saws Immigrant help is ignorant OF our
language or ways, and thus, he intimates,
more docile under extortion and beggarly
wages. Not less than 1000 poverty stricken
immigrants have thus been bound out in
New England states alone, through his
agency Men are promised 500 and women
$50 annually. Parents have in several
known cases been separated from their
children. Young girls have complained
against outrageous conduct by employers,
though they can produce no witnesses
Under the Parsons system there is re-
corded case of man who worked five
years without penny of wages He had
been told the state laws imposed severest
penalty upon him who SO much as men
toned the subject of wages to an employer.
Hence he did not complain.

4 NEW CHARGE.
AIRS. Norton and Her Lover Arraigned Oh
the Charge of Adultery.

TOPEKA, Kan, July ll.-Hearing on the
application for writ of habeas corpus in
behalf of Moore and Mrs. Norton has
been postponed by Judge Guthrie till
tomorrow. Mrs Norton is said TO be very
nervous today and clngs still closer to
Moore and most fervently AYERS that she
will not be parted from him. Mrs. Cas-
we'll had another interview with her this
forenoon, but her pleadings to the erring
woman were of no avail She is deter
mined TO stand by her love. Both she and
Moore vehemently deny the reports in cir
culation about the amount of money and
valuables taken by them from St. Louis
Mrs. Morton says the money she has is her
OWN, but she is willing To give up
pertain deeds TO property given to her by
her husband. Mr.. Moore asserted most
positively that he has no other than tritilng
debts IN St. Louis and that lie never bor-
rowed a dollar from Mr.. Norton.
Moore and Mrs. Norton were not in
formed until this morning, and IL was
known TO no one but the officers that a
complaint was filed by County Attorney
Curtis. late last evening, before Justice
Searle against them, charging them with a
violation of the state law under section T.
in relation to marriages, which makes it a
misderGeaDQr to live together as man and
wife and fixes the penalty at not less than
800 nor more than $1,000 or not less than
thirty days nor more than three months
Imprisonment. Had they been released
this morning they would have been immes
aiately arrested upon the charge. 1t is not
likely that the warrant Will be seryed I'M
less they are released.
A reporter asked Judge Laughlin this
morning if he though there was any doubt
about their being able 10 take Moore back
70 ST. Louis.
Not in the least" said the Judge. II
DO not think he will be released on habeas
corpus and Ii he Is released there are
p,her ways in which we can hold him."
Ii is very plain that the st. Louis officers
propose to have Moore. He will make a
persistent fight against going back but he
will have to 90, and as one OF the officers
remarked this morning: Moore night
Just As we'll make up his mind TO 90 with
put so much trouble about
Judge Lauehlin. attorney for Norton,
and Captain Johnson, attorney for Moore,
had had long consultation GS,,n this ate. after
Captain johnson said a. the close
of the consultation: Negotiations are in
progress among US which may lead to a
settlement Of the affair. The condition on
which Judge Laughlin proposes 10 settle
it without going into the courts is thai
Moore shall leave the country and that
Mrs. Norton shall return to ST. Louis and
give up the papers which she has IN her
possession. This proposition has been
made by Norton. but neither Moore nor
Mrs. Norton will agree to it, still i have
hopes that we will settle the matter with
out the aid OF the courts"
Both Moore and the woman declare that
they viii not separate. Mrs. Norton de
clared this afternoon that she was willing
