THEIR FINAL REPORT.
Tho Citizens COMMITTEES of New Orleans
Report to the Mayor.

Tho Citizens COMMITTEES of New Orleans
Report to the Mayor.
New ORLEANS, May 1A-The famous
citizens committee made final reportto
the mayor to-day. After denying several
statements of the italian consul and
showing his failure to keep his promise
to work with them, the report closes as
follows: In our opinion the remedy is:
l. Regulation of immigration.
2. Reform in criminal laws and the
administration of criminal justice.
8. A law recognizing the existence of
a bar association and endowing it with
full power to try and disbar any attorney
whose evil practices render him unwor-
thy OF being an officer of the court.
The only radical remedy which it sug-
gests is the entire prohibition of immi-
grafton from Sicily and lower Italy. It
was found necessary to prohibit
Chinese immigrants, and congress passed
necessary law. The danger to Califor-
mia from the Chinese was no greater
than the danger to this state from the
Sicilian and southern Italians. We
have had long experience with these
people and that experience has been a
sad one. They are undesirable citizens
and there is no reason why they should
be allowed to participate in the blessings
of freedom and civilization which they
are not only unable to appreciate but
which they refuse to understand or ac-
cept. The committee in conclusion SUBJ
mits suggestions regarding the jury
system and advise that the legislature be
petitiOned to amend the criminal laws to
meet the requirements pointed out.
GRAND JURY CALLED TOGETHER.
New ORLEANS, May 1.-The grand
jury was called together to-day for the
purpose of acting on some published in
terviews of Consul Corte, in which he
stated there was plot among the Ital-
ians to take vengeance on the mayor and
others, but that he frustrated it by coun-
selling GOODNESS and saved the lives of the
citizens. A committee of the grand jury
called on the consul for the names of
these plotters, but he said he had been
misinterpreted by the newspapers. There
was strong feeling against the Italians
here, as in other places in America, and
he, like other consuls, had used his best
efforts in the interests of peace and quiet.
The grand jury will meet again in the
morning to receive the comittee's report.
Consul Corte leaves tomorrow evening,
although his successor has not yet ar
rived.

mand 1t, and tell you they arc thoroughly In
earnest.
We commend the observations of
this calamity howler to the thought
full consideration of Republican
editors and politicians of the present
day. We will quote again from an
other Of the noted howlers- a regu-
lar anarchist in his declarations. Read
the following from the Hon. John A.
Martins last message to the Kansas
Legislature, June 8, 1889:
The present excessive rates of interest should
be materially reduced. Severe penalties should
be axed to prevent and punish uSury. sincerely
trust that when your session ends 1t can no
longer be said tn Kansas allows q higher con-
tract rate of interest and imposes smaller
penalty for usury than any other state Of the
union. And, as nearly all Of the members Of the
present Legislature were elected on platform
which explicitly declares In favor Of a reduction
of existing rates of interest, and the imposition
Of severe penalties Of uSury, this subject will no
doubt receive your early and favorable attention.
The laws concerning mortgages need revision
and radical Improvement. 1t should require
more than mortgage to steal q mans farm,
either in this or In In any other state Appraise-
ment Of property before It's sale under fore
closure should be surrounded with most strin-
gent limitations TO protect the interests Of the
debtor, and the right Of redemption should not
only be extended but made secure. Our chattel
mortgage laws invite OutrSgeS on property rights
that are as fragrant as grand larceny, and the
wrong and Injustice that has been done under
the shield Of these laws Is disgrace to civilized
government. Our mortgage laws should be
generally remOdeled, so as to protect the inter
ests and rights of debtors and mOrtgagors
against the greed and inhumanlty Of creditors
and mortgages.
We hear very much in these latter
days OF the stanch Republicanism
of the Atchison Champion under the
administration of John A. Martin. It
occurs to us that the Republicanism
Of the Champion under it's present
management, which is so severely
criticised by such nondescript sheets
as the Capital and the Lawrence
Journal presents nothing more
nearly approximating the calamity
howl than the foregoing quotation
from the message of the founder Of
that excellent journal, or anything
more likely to "drive capital out Of
the state"
The hand book contains a great
many very interesting quotations from
the ablest statesmen, and the most
skillful. scheming politicians that
have figured in the recent history Of
our country, together with much
valuable information not conveniently

a FEW QUESTIONS TO J. K. HUDSON.

DE0u al GEle, A6LSoSJ Ou OoptoAAOVA
10Th, 1873, a portion Of which take
pleasure in reproducing in another
place, suggests a few inquiries to
which / would respectfully request
you to reply in detail. You acted
very promptly in attempting to re-
spond to my open letter to Hon. H.
B. Kelly-a letter to which I solicit
ed his personal attention and not
yours. Will you be equally prompt
in responding to this which ls direct
ed personally to yourSelf9 My ques-
tions are as follows:
First IF, IN 1873, it was necessary
for the farmers to unite and endesv-
or, through the ballot box, to effect
needed reforms, is it not equally nee
esssry nowi If not, why notG
Second-H legislatures, the press,
Congress and courts Of justice were
subsidized then, and if it was neCes-
sary for farmers to "send men to leg
islate who should be able to with
stand the direct and indirect bribes
Of rings and monopelies" in order to
prevent inevitable revolution, is it
not equally the case now? If not,
why notG
Third-If in 1873, you could see
the necessity Of combination "of all
the industrial classes" and rejoice in
the prospect Of it, is not such COM
bination equally necessary and de-
sirsble to-day for the purposes you
named? If not, why not?
Fourth-If, in 1873, 'the grand old
Republican party with its history, its
victories, it's glorious martyrs, had
become q place of refuge for thieves,
railroad and salary grabbers, whis-
key and Indian rings" is it not
equally so to-day, and is it not equal
ly certain to fall to pieces Of its own
rottenness2 If not, why not?
Fifth-If both the Republican and
Democratic parties "were in the
hands of the moneyed powers OF the
country" in 1873, are they not equally
80 now? If not, why not?
Sixth-If both of these parties
"were then controlled and operated,
not for Justice, not for protection Of
the masses, but to secure the gains Of
Office and perpetuste official power"
is this not equally true to-day? II
not why notl
Seventh-If you so ardently de-
sired farmers and peoples anti
monopoly party" in 1873, with a plat
form opposed to RAILROAD steals, tar
if steals, bank steals, and every other
form Of thieving by which the farmer
and laboring classes are robbed OF
the legitimate fruits Of their labor"
what is the matter Of such party
now, and why are you not supporting
it?

farming was conducted at an sbso
