CHINESE INMIGRATION.

Mr.. ."Dinnis" Kearney, late Of Linn
crick the champion blatherskite Of
the Pacific coast, delivered a day or two
ago before the House Committee on For
eien Affair one Of his characteristic
harangues in opposition to Chinese i'm
migration. During the course Of his re-
marks he made personal attack on MI.
Hit. a native-hOrn member Of Congress
from Illinois, whom he bitterly de-
nouEced for his antag0nism to the efforts
made 20 stop the immigration of Chinese,
and whom he DiunisJ threatened TO pelt
with dead cats if hc (IitU gan for Con
ercss again.
Know Chinese immigration may be very
Objectionable, but when the subject Is
dis2sssionately considered, the conclu-
sion is irresistible that it is certainly no
worse than the style of immigrants repre-
sented 10y Mr.. Kearney. SO far the only
serious arguments that have been ad-
vanced against the almond-eyed Celestial
is tina, he will make cheap contracts for
labor. and that he will occasionally en-
gage in "a game that he does not under
stand from which he generally energies

Of some son of toll, who had been DESTROYS
of taking advantage OF his imagined
child.like and bland disposition to fleece
him. But so far as has yet been ascer-
tanned, no Chinese Anarchist, Socialist,
or Dynamter has been imported into
the country, while other nations have
contributed to Us freely Of those classes.
IndecI, if any just idea of Mr.. "Dinnis
Kcarneys character can be gathered
from his so.called speeches, he himself
has decidedly strong inclning towards
such standing menaces to our ciyiliza
ton.
Thctruth of tie whole matter is that our
naturalization laws are throughout def
cent They were enacted at time when
the country needed settlement, and when
the natural increase of population was
not sufficient to supply the demand fox
citizens to develop our resources and
build up our waste places. That time Is
now past, however, and it would be a
good idea for Congress to, materially and
by Wholesale revise the laws, so that
citizenship shall be made less easy, and
so that the John Mosts, the Dennis Kear-
neys, ana all other ;grarian and social
agi'ajors can, along with every objcc-
tionable character be he Chinaman or

CLEVELAND OR HILL.

If Governor Hill of New York has ar
dent friends enough to start for him a
presidential boom, IL will be a mistake on
the part Of the ardents, because Governor
Hill Is strong enough to hurt the Demo

should be kept as solid as possible in the
Democratic line He would do the party
harm and himself no good. We do not

events as the Democratic candidate.
Whether we all like Mr.. Cleveland or

party success depends on him. lie sine
representative Of the intellect, power
and patriotism of the party, and has be-
come the single standard bearer who Is
brave and sensible, with a clear under
standing of what the people need
I'm fact Mr. Cleveland has shown that
he understands the instinct Of the masses
when it points out popular demand
while timid politicians take counsel only
of their fears and great opportunities
are lost in the delay and hesitation OF
men who lack the courage to act up 10
great occasions.
If Mr.. Cleveland is not renominated 1t
will be because Congress fail IN taxing a
bold stand in the cause of reform ex-
actly where the people want it.
The people are not as ignorant a. ihey

ton. and nothing but distinct policy
will satisfy them.

Genera. Wheeler's Army bill has ex-
cited great attention and a great deal Of
criticism.
Section l.2Oi Of The Revised Statutes
declares that promotions in the line
shall be made throughout The whole
army in IT'S several lines Of artillery, cav
airy. and infantry. respectively. Pro-
motions in the staff Of The army shall be
made in tie several departments and
corps, respectively" This would indi'
cate that the basis Of promotion Is to be
the same for ali these arms officers being
promoted in the arm to which they re-
spectiyely belong The acts passed on
the subject are those Of March so 1914.
and March 3, 1851.
Doubtless General Wheeler having
been an officer in the Confederate army
is a good Judge Of what ought TO be done
in the United states service.
But when any changes are made in the
organization Of the army we ought TO
encourage enlistments from civil life BIZ
giving the private soldier a fair chance
of promotion II is certain that our ser
vice has a great many advantages over
others, notably, in The way we Use cav
airy for all classes Of mounted duty AMI
also as infantry.
