THE discussion OF Immigration at the
recent conference Of charities and cor
rection brought out some statements
rather discouraging to those who are
demanding extreme measures for re-
stricting immigration. A member of
the conference from Philadelphia said
that the immigrants arriving in that
city are of u better class than those who
came few years ago. a Wisconsin
member said that in his state
where II majority of adults
are OF foreign birth, the Germans,
Scandinavians and Irish furnish no
more crime, pauperism and Insanity
than do the natives. A delegate from
Michigan praised the good order of
townships peopIed by foreign colonists.
Anybody who has "a knowledge of the
matter from practical observation can
bear like testimony. The very best
examples of industry and thrift are
found among people of foreign birth, and
it is absurd and unjust to make IL sweep
ing charge against foreigners coming to
the country because here and there some
of them are lawless, or indoent, or
thriftless. There are natives who are
all these, and manifestly it would be
ridiculous for foreigners to condemn all
Americans because we have these ele-
ments of homo production among us. 1t
is not to be doubted that some undesir-
able people get into the country, but the
number of such is very greatly exagger-
ated, and we can better afford to have a
few of these thrown upon us than ,iot to
get the thousands of industrious,
thrifty, honest people whom the coun-
try needs, and in order to keep the
former out it would be necessary to alb
solutely close our ports to immigration.

A Republican NJ stake.

Frank Lesie's Newspaper
The displacement, through legal technic-
alitv, of the democratic governor of Ne
braska, Mr.. Boyd, from the high office to
which he was fairly elected, is a mistake Of
the gravest character. 1t must result in last
ing injury to the republican party in the
state and in the nation, unless the mistake IS
promptly and completely rectitied. The re-
suit of Governor Boyd's displacement is to
place the gubernatorial Office in the hands of
q republican, though democrat was elected
by a fair aud honest election, and a clear and
decided majority,
Whether or not the republican party in
Nebraska will be held responsible for carry
ing the matter of Governor Boyd's citizen
ship into the courts is not the question.
People will simply regard his removal after
he had been elected as the result of polit-
ical conspiracy and public opinion is intol-
Grant of any trihing with the results of hon
est elections after such results have been
acknowledged, declared and accepted.
The republican press has been outspoken in
opposition to several unjust, unfair, and pre-
posterous gerrymanders of number Of
states in the east aud west, to secure and
perpetuate democratic legislatures and
to secure the control of majority
of congressional districts for the demo
cratic party. Public opinion has not justified
these gerrymanders, and will not sustain
them when the test is made by an appeal 10
the voters of the respective states next fall
The American loves nothing better than
far play and honesty in and out of politics.
and the honest thing for all parties is to ac-
cept the result of every election at which the
votes are fairly received and honestly counted
as the end and iinality of the matter.
In Nebraska the possession of the guberna-
torial office by republican for year or two
will be of no advantage, temporary or perna-
nent to the party, il it involves taint upon
its honor. ECf
Weare sorry that Governor Boyd was dis

WANTED. HARMONY.

Antagonisms do not create, they de-
stroy what is already in existence. Two
partners in business who backbite and
hamper each other. cannot hope for
success. A corporation whose manag-
ers are continually venting personal
spites upon each other, will most likely
cease paying dividends. What is true
of private business affairs in this partic-
ular, is likewise true of the conduct of
public business. Personal and par
tisan intrigues, private and political
interests make it difficult for public
bodies to perform their functions skill
fully Nevertheless unless men will
devote their attention to the business
entrusted them with some degree of
singleness of purpose, the best result
cannot be obtained
The continual conflict, the everlasting
pickering and the unseemly abuse of one
branch of the city government by an
other, are doing Omaha great harm.
When the mayor is antagonizins- the
city council, the council the board of
public works, and the board of public
works the committee of the council on
street improvement, it is perfectly clear
that the friction is wasting thu force of
the machinery somewhere. We have
too many coordinate breaches in our
city government, especially when the
coordinate rank they have obtained is
used as n convenient method Of shifting
responsibility from one to the other.
There is no good sense in these petty
malicious strifes. Men in business do
not permit likes and dislikes, enmities
and Indifference to interfere with the
business of their employers. Public
officials have no right to use public posi-
tions to vent personal malice. Official
intercourse should always be cordial and
polite whatever may be the relations of
the office-holders personally The
structures of one department upon an
other may be iustitiable in fact and
necessary, but the antagonisms which
burn into the vital force ought to be
avoided.
President Lowry, Chairman Birkhauser
and individual members of the council
should shake hands and be friends Off
cially. The city is losing time, money
and influence as we'll as patience on ac-
count of the ill-will which separates

vents the proper and prompt perform

THE death OF Sir John Macdonald,

THE death OF Sir John Macdonald,
premier of Canada, who is reported to
be seriously i'll, would have tremeu-
dous influence upon the future course OF
politicaI affairs in the Dominion Sir
John is man of exceptional qualities as
a political leader, and there is probably no
man in the Dominion who could take his

out the policy he represents, There

policy which the liberal party stands
for, and this would be strengthened by
the death of Sir John Macdonald, who

cal manager, thoroughly loyal to the

time to what he believes to be the best
interests OF the Dominion. His death

CYCLONE IN EAST BERLIN.
Berlin Bridge Company's New Building
Blown Down.


Blown Down.
EAST BERLIN, April PA cyclone
visited this place Yesterday afternoon.
1t seized hold of an immense iron struc
ture being built by the Iron Bridge COM
pany on the Cromwell side OF the Malta
hesett river and leveled it to the ground.
perhaps fatally in ured one man and in
fllrted cuts and bruises on several
others.
The main works of the Berlin Bridge
company are situated on the Berlin side
of the Mattabesett river. The company
has recently been charging. and was
building an immense iron structure on
the other side of the river to accumo-
date its business. The building was to
be 400 feet long and so feet wide. 1t
had been completed nearly half of its
length, or about 200 feet. This large
structure is now level with the ground,
with not a girder or brace to show
! where it stood.
The strange phenomenon occurred
about 3 O'Clock. 1t was quiet as sum-
mer day, with not breath of wind
blowing. This peculiar stiffness was
the precursor of the wind storm. All of
sudden the men employees of the
Bridge company. saw a black cloud
moving rapidly down the valley and eX-
actly in their direction. The cloud was
noticed by others, also, and some re-
marked that they guessed there was
going to be rain. The cloud moved
rapidly. in a rotary motion, and was
accompanied by low roar. Fifty men
were at work in and about the building,
when becoming frightened by the noise
and darkness, they threw down their
tools and rushed from the building. In
another moment the whole framework
of the iron building had collapsed and
lay out flat on the ground.
All of the workmen escaped from the
building before the cyclone struck it,
but Denniss Daudett, French Cana
dian, was caught under the falling
walls. He suffered a broken arm and
was badly crushed about the hips. His
injuries are serious and perhaps fatal.
Several other men were slightly injured
but none of them serious enough to re-
quire the services of physician.

door and receiving no answer the door
was forced open, when terrible sight
was exposed to view. The
woman was found on the bed
dead with her abdomen ripped
open and her body otherwise mutilated

THE CITY SUED FOR $4,000

For Emptying Sewerage Into the River
Above the PIatt :NIills-A Permanent
Injunction Asked For.
The Platt Mills Co and Plat Brothers
Yesterday brought suit against the city,
claiming $25, 900 damages, and praying
for permanent injunction restraining
the city from emptying Its sewerage
into the Naugatuck river.
For several months both companies
have been complaining about the sewer
age of the city being emptied into the
river, and some time ago the matter
was brought before the court of COM
mon council. who appointed a special
committee to make an investigation.
The committee recommended that steps
he taken to destroy the sewerage, and
reported that the turning of sewer
age into the river made it very disagree
able to people living near the outlet.
Nothing further was done in the mat
ter by the city authorities and a few
months ago it was given out that the
Platts would bring suit. The papers in
the suit were served upon City Clerk
Kilduff late yesterday afternoon. Tie
hearing on the injunction will take
place before the superior court in New
Haven on Tuesday, May ).
