the suit longer in court aud advised the
parties to refer the matter. After due
deliberation they assented, agreeing to
refer the case to three honest men. z
With a grave smile, in perfect keeping
with judicial dignity, Judge Peters said
that tho ease involved certain legal
points which would require one Of the

The COURT House Bonds.

Bids for $4,000 of the court house bonds
will be received at the office of the county
commissioners up to 2 o'clock p. m. to-day.
The whole issue of these bonds is 800, 900.
Some time ago $4,000 of them was dis
posed of, and they are now quoted at from
106 to 107.
There is no doubt that these bonds are
very desirable ones. There are no safer
bonds. They draw per cent. interest, and
do not mature until 1919 The county,
however. reserves the right to redeem
$1,000 of them annually after ten years
from the date of their issue.
The county's financial condition is excel
lent. On March last it had in the treasury
$50, 900 in cash, and had bonded debt of
only 100000 and floating debt of only
$1,016. The assessed value of all property is
$30,000.000, and the estimated value of it is
SEC, 100000.
Doubtless there will be number of bids
for the bonds by persons who DO not reside
in Savannah. As the bonds are first-class
security they ought to, and no doubt will,
command good premium. They ought to
be held by residents of this county. There
are good many people in this city who are
looking for safe bonds which pay a good
rate OF interest. They will look long time
before they will find bonds that are in every
respect SO satisfactory as these court house

Better Immigrants Wanted.

II is time for congress to consider seriously
whether the time has not arrived for put
ting an end TO the practice Of a number of
steamship scompanies of gathering up the
refuse POPULATION Of Europe and dumping
it into this country. A committee of con-
gress has been at Castle Garden recently
for toe purpose of finding out whether the
contract labor law is being violated, and
also whether the immigrants who reach
our shores in such large numbers
come without solicitation or are persuaded
to come by promises which are not kept. 1t
has found out enough to justify it IN report
ing that majority, perhaps, of the immi-
grants have no thought Of leaving their
European homes until they are approached
by agents of steamship companies and led
to believe that they can quickly and greatly
better their condition in this country.
The most Of these immigrants are ignorant
and depraved, and will never become thrifty
and respectable citizens. They are able, by
selling all their belongings, to get Just
enough money to compensate the steamship
companies for bringing them here, and
when they arrive they hide away in the most
squalid parts Of the great cities or make their
way to the mining towns. How many of
them manage to live for the fist few years
after their arrival is a mystery. Some of
them are hired out in gangs to work on
railroads, en- the streets of the cities aud in
the mines. They receive very small wages,
and consequently they rob the native labor
of employment 1t is said that some of
them have been byought into the phosphate
mines of the south and have taken the
places of the blacks.
These immigrants are of no benefit to this
country. 1t VIII be extremely difficult to
assimilate them. Indeed, they seem to ob-
ject to assimilation. They stick to their
European customs, habits and language,
and they appear to have no ambition to be-
come identified with the population of the
country.
They not only come into competition
with native labor and force down wages,
but they are becoming dangerous element
in politics. The small politicians are find
ing out that they eau be used to advantage,
and, hence, they are in demand at elections,
particularly municipal elections. The better
they understand their power at the ballot
box the more dangerous they will become.
But why should cur doors be thrown open
to people of this kinda Desirable emigrants,
those who can be readily sssimlilated, and
who wish to better their condition. should
be welcomed, but these solicited immigrants
the most undesirable part of the popula-
ton of Europe-who are gathered up and
brought here by the steamship companies
There is really no room for them mere. The
country has all the labor it needs. and also
all the people of their kind that it can safely
take care of. Congress should pass a law at
once restricting immigration to the kind
that is desirable.

Senator Hawley, speaking of the Nor
rill service pension bill, begged the repub-

agents." Senator Hawley's advice was
very good, but it had no effect, for the
stampeding continued. The Hartford Cour-
ant now reviews it by describing the bill
that has been rushed through the Houss
and that will shortly come up in the Senate
as one that puts the "unscratched three
months man on a level with the veteran
who served through the war;" They are on
a level, but in only one regard-they will
