80 much as protection from the army of
tramps, beggars and anarchists that are
swarming through the gates of the Amer

the subject OF Senator Pglmer's speech
worth considering besides its Nero cam
paigu feature. 1t is true, as he says, that
some parts of this .ountry are getting a
little crowded and that good percent
age of our new arrivals contribute TO the
orowding. The jails, poorhouses and in
sane asylums are getting too fun for
comfort, while the army of foreign beg
gars and wild Dyed cranks still at large is
bigger than eau be put to any good uses
If Senator Palmer can devise q way to
separate the immigrant chat from the
wheat and leave the chat somewhere out

TIE movement OF the colored people
in some of the southern states, toward
the 'gentine Republic and other sections
OF South America. is in the right direc-
tiop. II would be a blessing to them, Ms
well as to the white people, if each could
DO by themselves. SO long as an attemps
is made TO live together, the race war will
continue, and can not in the nature Of
things be prevented. The negro can
never be the equal of the white man, and
therefore will always get the worst in
every conflict. If il were possible
for them to go TO some country
where they could be by themselves
and manage their own social and political
affairs in their own way, how much better
it would be for all couo2rued. Should it
turn out that they are in earnest about
going TO South America, here certainly
would seem TO be no IMPROPERLY in the
government assisting them to do 30. The
expense would bear no comparison TO
that of colonizng them in Liberia, and
