BUILD THE MOYUYENr.

Some of the more self-respecting journals
Of New York are manifesting little sensi-
tiYeness at the frequent reference in out
side papers to the failure OF the Empire
City to build a monument to Grant. The
Commercial Advertiser explains that the
monument was to be built by the entire
country, and that New York was chosen be-
cause it is the largest city in the country.
This is the refuge the journals of that city
seek after the failure to collect in New
York money to build the monument. 1t
may be difficult TO prove that there was an
understanding that the entire country
should contribute to a monument in New
York, and equally difficult to prove that
there was an understanding that New York
should build it. But as the entire country
does not show any disposition to contrib
ute to a monument to be erected in New
York, would it not be wise for that city to
remove the reproach that rests upon it by
liberal subscriptions to the monument fund.
The insignifieance Of the sum required in
comparison with the aggregate wealth of
the milliOnaires Of the city adds keeaness
to the refusal. There are hundred men
in New York who could build the mona-
ment and not miss the money it would cost.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The latest advices from Washington tend
to show that the silver question is ap-
preaching solution, the President having
exerted his influence to bring about COM
promise between the Senate and House.
Some very audacous burglars must be
operating in Singapore. Recently one en-
tered the Jail and appropriated the coin of
the prisoners, and subsequently the knights
of the jimmy bodily carried off the safe of
St. Andrews Cathedral.
A famine is raging in East Laos, on the
1nd0-Chinese Peninsula, village after village
having been deserted for more favored re-
gions. At Ubon the prisoners and ma
jority OF the population have been subsist-
ing On banana stalks and wild herbs.
novel fifteen-puzzle has been received
by Viceroy Chang Chih-Tung of the Pro-
vince of Hou-Pe, Central China, in the
shape of machinery for a large cotton-mill.
There was such lot of eOgs and other
mechanical devices that at last accounts the
Celestials were sorely puzzled how to get
them in their proper places.
There ought to be no juggling in award
ing the contract for the S100-ton cruiser. A
decision is expected to-day, and it is hoped
that the intimation that the problem may
be solved by an award to the Philadelphia
ship-buider ON his own design, to be after
ward changed back to suit the Secretary of
the Navy, will prove untrue.
Pirates in the prefecture of Canton are
beginning to consider their murderous avo-
cation little too hazardous to be comforta-
bic. They made their raids sometimes in
fiotillas and established societies that levied
blackmail on all of the trading classes of
the community, resorting TO arson or pillage
to enforce their demands. In the past few
months the Viecroy's boats captured seven
ty-1ive of the murderous cut-throatS and
forty-six of them, recognized as old offend
ers. suffered summary decapitation.
Corea is passing through crisis in her
history. japanese advices report that the
King of Corea had declined to accede to
the request of the Chinese Minister in
Seoul for a private audience, and that
British men-of-war, in japanese waters,
We're held in readiness with steam up under
orders to be prepared to sail at moments
notice. Rear-Admiral Belknap also ex-
peeted to receive orders to sail for Corea.
Chinese adyices intimate that the Tsung-li
Yamen had received at Picking a telegram
from Russia TO the effect that the latter
country would protect C0rea if necessary
even against China, statement that natur-
ally created great excitement in court
circles.

COMING THROUGH MEXICO.

The Chinese man-dealers are evidently
experimenting on the Mexican route
TO the United States. The idea of the
man-dealers is to open the cheapest route
possible. The limit of expense for landing
a cody in the United States is about $50.
a much larger sum takes off the profits.
The Canada route involves the payment Of
$50 in lump as a head tax. The cody is
then supposed to be at halfway house on
his trip to the United States. His owner
is out about So, including passage money
from China, and he has ST5 to expend in
landing his man in the United States, I'M
less he can do ii for less money. The Mex
lean route requires no payment of head
tax, and is, to that extent, cheaper than the
Canada route. But the facilities for getting
coolies landed at a Mexican port into the
United States are not SO good as they are
by the northern route. On the latter route
tile Canadian Pacific Railroad transports
Chinese to various points along the border,
SO near the line that the rest Of the trip is
not expensive On the Mexican route there
is long distance TO travel and no border
railroad 10 help them along. Taking CON-
mercal view Of the question, the conclusion
seems fair that Chinese VIII be landed on
both routes so long as it can be done with
profit to the dealers. If the American Gov
eTnment shows determination to make
tie enterprise expensive and hazardous the
effort will he abandoned. The Chinese eX-
pect after two OF four years to get in
through the Golden Gate at no other cost
than their passage money from China.
They Lave got missionaries and transpoTta-
ton companies working on their side.
There are merchants in the East also who
would flood the country with Chinese to
build up a losing trade with China. On the
other hand, there are several millions of
men and women whose earnings are threat
ened by any considerable increase Of Chi
nese immigration. We trust the millions
viii have some influence in Congress, but
e are aware that missionaries. transportation
companies and importers are hard COM
bInation to overcome.
