THE LIBERTY OF THE WIFE.

The New York Herald comments with
surprise and enthusiasm upon the recent
decision of the Chief Appellate Court of
England, that a husband has not the
right to become the jailer of his wife or
to imprison her or compel her to obey bis
will in the matter of restraint of personal
liberty. The Herald declares that it is
really the emancipation proclamation for
English wives. In very limited sense
that is true, since the court from which
the appeal was taken, that under
the laws of England he husband
has the right to the stody of his
wife, and the London 10 Journal ap-
proved this decision of .ne High Court of
Justice, and added that it is unques-
tionably the husbands right to confine
his wife tothe house if she refuses to
submit to his orders; that he is entitled
to all OF her time and to direct her man
ner of life, to disapprove of her associ-
ates and compel obedience accordingly.
But, while this has been the written law
| of England, an unwritten law has pre-
vailed for full half-century that is su-
perior to it; law that recognizes the
true rule to be just that which the Eng
lish Court of Appeals has affirmed in the
case of Emily Jackson.
Mrs. Jackson proposed to leave her
husband and live apart from him. He
and his friends seized her as she came
from church door, took her to her hus-
bands house and there restrained her of
her liberty. On habeas corpus, the court
below refused to discharge her. That de-
cision was but the cold enunciation of a
law practically a dead letter. Social in
telligence and the enlightenment of the
age had long since risen superior to it and
recognized the right Of the wife to her
personal freedom. That superior law the
appellate court has announced as of such
force as to be worthy Of recognition by
the courts.
The decision Of the upper court is not,
therefore, SO surprising as was that of the
lower court. AmaZement may well be
| expressed that any court could be found
to breathe seeming vitality into the corpse
of dead statute such as that referred to.
Laws must keep abreast with human
progress to be of any virtue, and ali stat
utes that lag behind the procession are
dead already.

| importance than the restriction of such
| immigration as brings us neither brains
nor means nor capacity for assimilation
with our institutions.
Spokane Revieao: The only way by
which these vicious elements can be kept
at home is by having their qualifications
! for citizenship investigated IN advance.
Youngstown Telegram: The Lodge bill
provided that every alien in any foreign
country desiring to immigrate to the
United States must procure from an
American consul a certificate that its
holder possessed a good character, en-
joyed sound health, could read and write,
and was self-supporting, and each cer-
tificate was to be verified when its holder
reached this country. That, or something
like it, must yet become the law of the
land, if it is to remain the heritage of the
free and the home of the brave.
The twenty-four journals quoted fairly
represent the expressions of nine-tenths
of the eXponents of public opinion in the
United States. These journals voice the
sentiments of their respective communi-
ties, and they constitute the common
opinion of the mass of the people. Where
there is such unanimity, legislation must
be Influenced by it. 1t is altogether
probable, therefore, that within year
we shall find the subjects of immigration
and naturalization the most important
before the National Legislature. That
public sentiment upon these subjects is
SO strongly expressed just now is not
wholly due to the New Orleans incident,
nor to the Pennsylvania mining and coke
region events; while these have quick
ened it, it has really long been slowly
and steadily forming and gathering
strength and is the result of a radical
change of view concerning the American
refuge and our duties to ourselves and
our institutions.

The Presidential party will see the
southern section of California and por-
ton of the coast valley and coast region
under very favorable conditions. 1t is a
matter of general regret that the tourists
will not be able to see the Sacramento
Valley northward from this city, nor to
view the foothil regions. After all, to
visit California for even cursory inspec-
| ton of its producing sections, requires a
great deal more of time than the Presi-
dent and his travelling companions can
give, so vast is our territorial area and so
magnificent our distances. But the
President, when he finally leaves the
State, will have seen enough of it to give
him greatly more comprehensive idea
of its magnitude and it's possibilities than
he had before coming to the coast. He
visited the Puget Sound region some
years ago; he will have travelled through
the best portion of Oregon by daylight,
and have swept through the entire
length of California. AS result he will
return to the East better understanding
our solicitude for desirable population,
and our capacity to maintain twenty
times the number of inhabitants the
State now has. He will have gained a
fair idea of the great variety of climates,
the varying isothermal conditions, the
exceeding variety of production of Cali
fornia and the coast. We fiatter our
selves that he will be fairly impressed
with the progress of State building the
people have made, and with the splendid
achievements in railway construction,
ship-building, and our promotion of
great industrial enterprises. 1t is evi-
dent that he is already much impressed
with the appearance Of our population
and the evidences of patriotic spirit that
animates them. All in all, therefore, the
Presidents visit is educating, and will
serve to much enlarge Eastern opinions
and estimates of California, for the re-
ports of the visitation and of the ex-
pressions of the visiting party are pub
lished very fully throughout the Union,
and will be productive of much good to
the whole coast.

SUCH journals as the Boston Globe, that
are urging Congress to propose modifi-
cations to the Federal system so as to give
the General Government power in all
cases OF violation of treaties to apply rem
edies, mistake gravely when they take
the New Orleans case as an illustration of
the need. There was no violation of treaty
with Italy in that case. There was viola
ton of State law. But the treaty assures
Italian aliens all the protection afforded
to citizens. That they have under the
laws of Louisiana. For the compact was,
by the treaty, to place the alien ION the
level with the citizen in his right to pro-
lection. Because there was riot in which
aliens suffered, it was not a violation of
in under the treaty with knowledge that
State laws are the means of his protec-
ton, because they are the means for the
protection of the citizen. When these are
infringed, and authority is overthrown,
the remedy is for the alien precisely that
provided for the citizen. But if Louisi-
ana had refused admission to aliens, had
attempted to deport them, had in any way
interfered with rights they have under
the treaty outside of the State laws, then
the Federal Government could and would
have interfered, to insure them admis-
sion, for instance, or the right to remain,
etc. The error of the Indianapolis Jour
nal and the Boston Globe is in the as
sumption that assault and murder COM
mitted upon aliens are to be taken outside

From the Philadelphia Press.
Among the active republican workers in
the Thirty-fourth division of the Twentieth
ward is Louis Eisenbrand. He is finely
preserved man of IS years, of medium
hight, with fair complexion, and long,
flowing hair, which is well besprinkled with
silvery threads. Ills accent, although he
speaks fluently in the English tongue. indi-
Gates that he originally came to
America from the German fatheriend.
One of the most interesting episodes Of his
eventful life was that on which he faced the
king of his native Bavaria and forced him
to retreat in the direction from which he
had come. This was in 1910, when he was
an lnfantryman In the Bavariau army.
One dark night Louis was silently, with
measured steps, pacing his beat on the first
floor of one Of the numerous fortifcations
which surround the city.of Nuremberg He
was suddenly startled by hearing heavy
foOtstep behind him. On turning he saw it
was no less a parsonage than his majesty,
Ludwig The king attempted TO pass to the
front when Louis commanded him to halt
The king offered to give him the parole
countelsign.
81 have orders 30 allow no one to cross
my path and leave the castle from here,
parole or no parole was the reply.
81 will give you a guldin; l am your
monarch ;" said the tall, handsome, red
haired Ludwig.
I" | order you to retrace your steps; if you
do not shall place you under arrest"
The king saw that his sentinel could not
be. swerved from his path of duty, not even
for bride, and guldin was great deal
of money in those days for private soldier
to own and spend. He retreated from be-
fore his faithful soldier, but threw the piece
Of money to him before he left him. Louis
kepton pacing his beat, paying no attention
to the tempting bit of silver until he was
satisfied that the king had certainly disap-
peared, when ne carefully picked it up and
placed it in his pocket for future use.
On the next day the captain of the COM
pauy thanked Louis in the name Of King
Ludwig for refusing even him to pass in
violation of orders. In fact, as it afterward
turned out, the king made this attempt to
violate the orders and learn whether they
were reliable when on post.
In the meantime Louis and his closest
comrades had grand time in testing the
best beer that Nuremberg had on tap. and he
states that they drank toasts to Ludwig
may his majesty live long and have glo-
rious reign!n
