II used TO be the fashion in this state TO
send children of TO California to school,
and by many the practice is still contin-
ued. Those who imagine that there is
much TO be gained through schooling in
California that is not available at home
would do well to read a report of an exam
ination of applicants for teachers oertifi-
Gates made last Tuesday at Sacramento.
AL these applicants had passed through
the local Normal School and were ambi-
tous to so forth as instructors in turn.
And among them, pretty fairly distributed,
they in a very few minutes managed TO
make thirty or forty egregious blunders as

aud everyday use.
Those who have read the list of ques-
lions answered with instant promptness
by the Seattle school children during the
The Seattle post-intelligencer. [volume] (Seattle, Wash. Terr. [Wash.]) 1888-1914, 1891-06-28
THE IMMIGRATION PROBLEM.

The Providence, z. /. Journal recon-
mends that if we are to have an influx of
Russian Jews they shall be settled in
Utah, where the soil and climate are good
and where, it claims, the influence of the
Mormons would be neutralized, as it does
the Jews the honor TO assume that there
would be no danger that the Mormons
would make proselytes among them.
This, like many similar suggestions,
seems based on the idea that the Russian
Jews, if they come and are received into
this country, are to be settled" not
where they wish, but wherever they may
be placed, under guardianship and espion-
age. This is at odds with the only idea
upon which immigration of any kind
should be encouraged or admissible. If
people are to be admitted into this coun-
try, to become part of the body polite, it
should be only on terms of freedom and
equality; free to go and come, and to Sc
lect their own place of residence and call
ing, whether they be Russian Jew, English
Protestant, or of whatever nationality or
religion.
Whoever is incapable or unfit for these
privileges had better be kept out until
they become capable and fit. Those who
require guardianship and espionage; to be
told where to locate and what to do: to
be settled" here or there without refer
ence to their will or desire, and to be kept
there because not they but somebody else
deems it proper and best, are not qualified
or fit for absorption into the American
body polite. We want none but those
qualified to become citizens. We want no
citizens but good citizens, entitled to full
equality and consideration before the law,
and bound to equal obligations and duties,
as any and all other citizens. Every addi-
ton of good citizen-worthy and fit for
equality-is distinct gain and advantage
to the country, positive addition to its
strength and general welfare.
Less or other than this is an injury
The one invigorates, the other poisons the
channels of citizenship and pollutes the
fountain-head of free government. And
the same wisdom, the same instinct Of
self-preservation and self-improvement
that prompts the one, must and will dis
courage and prohibit the other. Therefore,
this habit of declaring or advising where
this or that new element of population
shall be settled, or what they shall do
when thus settled, had better be dropped.
As to those who are fit to come or who
should be admitted, it is as inconsistent
L i g r. T.
say where they shall locate or what they
shall do as for them to arrogate the same
privilege in respect to our locations and
dolngs. Let all who come be equals with
all who are here. Let none be admitted
whom we are not willing to recognize as
equals. Herein is safety for the perpetuity
of our institutions. In any other course
there is grave danger. AS a body polite
we should court health, and repel disease.

Railroads In japan.
