Jealous Men Of Science.

lt would be unfair to comment upon
~ axnignment Of DIR. Mackenzie by
oome Of the German physicians who at
tended the late emperor, because the
English doctor and his German support
0rs have not replied but it may be noted
with interest that Mackenzie asserts he
can mot reply ct present for state reasons,
principally concerning the Dowager En-
press Victoria. Possibly the attack Of
the German doctors is also for state
rensons. 1t has the aspect Of plot to
diDcredit Mackenzie and to counteract
the effect Of anything he might say about
he powers that be. The dowager en-
preGs and her friends can hardly be well
paoased at the sudden disappearance OF
English influence from German affairs.
But . few weeks ago there was o chance
that m invalid emperor with English
Gympathies would control the destinies
Of Europe in way to please John Bull,
and now Emperor William is about to
hob-nob with that terrible Gar Of Rus
sla, and the daughter of the English
queen appears TO need the protection Of
4aokenzie's charitable silence. This
Skirmishing between the jealous men OF
ecisnce, may develop more important
matters by and by, when the three EN-
perors begin to consider the settlemen,
q Bulgarian affairs, regardless of restless
England.

An Unnatural Policy.

A correspondent, who evidently be.
longs to the new American party, sends
10 Information of their views and pur.
poses, Of which he thinks us not well in
formed. We cannot say that he tells us
anything new, because without knowing
anything Of the party, we could Judge
vsfy accurately, from its name, what 1t
n driving at. 1t is only the Native
American or Know. Nothing party re.
vived; and revived in times that are
riper doubtless for the movement than
befere. As the country grows older and
more populous, and its waste lands are
dlled up, there Is more and more opportu.
nifty for the argument that the gates
should be closed to further immigration
md the land be reserved for those who
axo In and their posterity 1t Is, ,;of course,
asel6sh policy ; but all national policy is
o1Ahsh, and that blemish will not kill It,
4 tho country is ready TO accept the doc
erine that 1t would be more pros.
Porous By shutting off immigration. In
oonsldering the matter, 1t will be remem.
bered that the rapid growth of the ma
Hon has been due to the free immigra-
fion It has encouraged and obtained;
and 1t IL not likely that 1t will be deemed
Wise to suddenly and completely cut 1t
on. As we have said, there will be leg.
islstion restricting and regulating it, so
that the immigration will be of good and
valuable people; but the gates are not
likely to be closed. No such policy pre-
walls in any civilized country. There is
frec trade in men, If not in goods.
Our correspondent thinks that shutting
out laborers would keep up the value OF
labor here and 80 1t might but he
might as well argue in favor of limiting
by law the size OF families and prohibit
Ing men from having more than three
children unless they can support them In
idleness. 1t may be very convenient to
those In the land to have those out kept
out 1t is very nice for people In good fat
places to stay there but no such condl-
tions will ever prevail In human society
The weak will be beaten down while time
lAsts, and no artificial barriers will long
protect them.
The Republican party, after IL is
beaten In this election, may resolve itself
into the American party, as Its predeces-
sor, the Wing party, did before 1t. 1t
nay command large support to the doc
Erine that America shall be reserved for
The present Americans but it will not
win, because it is unnatural. Immigra-
lion will cease when our shores are no
longer inviting by reason of their sufl.
cient population and that will be soon
enough.

Relief Needed.

There was q time when we were prom
ised that the telephone and telegraph
poles were To 60 in this city. Is that time
indednitely postponed We are not
natisded with the indifference the authori.
ties show to this great nuisance. We
mote that great poles, bigger than any we
have yet had, are going up in the heart of
tho city, and we see that telephone poles,
which cucumber the streets without
authority OF law, are to be sanctioned
instead OF being suppressed.
We certainly do not misstate the pub.
I've demand that these poles should 90.
The wires can be buried and are being
buried In other places. There is no con.
alderation due the companies doing busi.
neas here. They are monopolies and tax
the community heavily for the accommo.
dstion they give; which is not great
specially the telephone service, which is
execrsble. Councils should act upon
this pole business and give us promise Of
relief ct some certain day.

ton that the damage to property shall be

railroad cannot be required to take up its

allowed TO build the elevated railroad.
The Reading company has not mani.
tested disposition to concede more than

too much "pig in poke business

THE dog days are approaching by way Of
Plttspurg. A couple OF intelligent citizens
OF that town were travelling with q pair of
dogs and took passage on street Car. The
conductor told them that his car was not
provided for the transportation Of dogs, and
that the animals must be put out. The
dogs did not pay fare or occupy seats and
as they could not hold on to the hand straps
1t would not do to let them stand, because
. sudden lurch might spill them over
other passengers who were not fond
OF dogs. The masters of the dogs
offered fare for them and In an un.
guarded moment, the distressed cond uotor
accepted, 1t and the dogs were carefully
made to sit upright on the car seats. Then
the conductor Teponted and tried TO return
the fare and persuade the men TO expel the
dogs. He eyen offered to help them out,
but noted the deep and hollow tone OF
growi and the expanse Of polished teeth
possessed by the canine passengers. As q
compromise he suggested tho front plat
form ~ tit place for dogs, but the
men said tholr dogs did not have
fits, and that they had been hunt.
ing and were too tired TO stand
out there and hold them. The dogs were
passengers and they would maintain their
rights. The other passengers Joined In the
dispute, urging the conductor to maintain
his position, and insisting that on tho same
grounds these hunters might take wild
