CALIFORNIA is overcrowded. In the
city of Los Angeles alone there are
over two thousand people wanting
work, and now many idlers who
won't work no one knows. Over
eighteen hundred names are register
ed on the books of the Labor Ex-
change as seeking employment in that
city. Meetings of capitalists have been
called to devise some way of finding
employment for these thousands, but
no way opens. This is not, however, a
much greater proportion than is found
the country over. and the question of
the employment of the unemployed
grows to become the greatest of all our
economic questions. The one present
remedy is the restriction of immigra-
ton. To this must we come at last.
We must come to it in order to save
our own workmen from starvation
wages, and in order to prevent this
country from being Over-run with for
eigners more rapidly than they can be
Americanized. These two evils are
upon us and their remedy lies in the
same direction.

ture of the admission of New Mexico
to the sisterhOOd of states.
TEXAS, like the barefUOted boy wht
was suffering for "buzzum pin" un
til he was ready to hoot it through tn
snow without shoes to get one, is sui
fering for want of paper mill. Flo
the past four years the LIGHT ha
been directing attention to the nee
of such a mill being established i
San Antonio, and has again an
again set forth the advantages to
derived therefrom North Texas hs
echoed the same cry. Dallas, FO
Worth and Waco have all agOnize
for a paper mill, but no mill come
and now comes the DenisOn New f.
with a plea for paper mill in thu
locality and says:
I'm all the vast domain of TeXt
there is not paper mill. Eve
pound Of paper that is used is impoI
ed, and there is material enough a
nuaIly wasted, because it will n
pay to ship it north and there is
home market, to keep first-cla
mill running. There is no other poi
lin the state that can offer superior l
JUDGEMENTS for the establishment

THAT natural gas find in San Anto-
Mo reveals what has long been assert
ed by the experts, the existence of a
large body of petroleum nderneath
this city. TO what depth it lies and to
what extent this deposit is problem
for future solving. The extent and
value of the natural gas find is also as
yet undetermined, but the public may
rest assured that Mr.. Lockwood will
test the matter for all that is in it be-
fore he abandons the enterprise so UNI
expectedly opened. Should gas in suf-

THE Irish World of New York is
doing valiant duty in its hostility to
the paid army of hirelings known as
Pinkerton's detectives, and against
which as thoroughly un-American in
every particular the World wages
unceasing warfare. The legislatures
of Minnesota and Illinois have both
taken active measures to root the
thugs out of these states and it is most
sincerely to be hoped that their efforts
will be successful. The ordinary
means of justice and the ordinary and
regular officers of justice are ample for
all purposes and none others should
he employed. These thugs know no
law save the orders OF their employer
and do all that they are bid do, look
ing to their masters to stand between
them and punishment for violation Of
law. They endanger the liberty of
the subject, set at nought the legal
safeguards thrown around the lndiVi-
dual, use every means to create evil
dence against those for whom rewards
are offered and,have neither the semb-
lence of a divine or human right for
exercising the powers they have
usurped. They are fruitful source
of crime and on more than one occa-
sion in the labor trouI les of this cOun-
try have caused bloodshed and riot,
which without their accursed inter-
ference would never have been pro-
vOked. Minnesota and Illinois set a

THE threatened attempt to compel
free ballot and fair count in the
congressional elections under the
provisions of the Chandler bill as in
troduced by Senator Sherman has
alarmed Texas. A democratic organ
printed at the capital is authority for
the statement that:
"The majority of the present legis-
| lature are in favor of changing the
| time of holding state elections from
| NOvemb Der to August, because they
! do mot like the sentiment of the south
ern question as now being shaped at
Washington, and they want their
elections as far separate from the fed
eral inquisition as possible"
Federal inquisition is good. 1t is a
good deal better than ballot box
stuffing and intimidation, and politi
cal assassination as the penalty o
seeking to discover the perpetrators
of these crimes against a pure cleo
toral franchise. Just when the
