THE WAVE OF IMMIGRATION.

Half million immigrants landed in
the United States last year, and as that
is decided increase with regard TO our
last years importation, the matter is
again assuming a shape that demands
attention.
If it is true, as it has been asserted by
Senator Ingalls,, in his great speech, that
1000, 900 of menEwilling to work, tramp
through the country each year begging
their support and unable to find work, it
is criminal neglect to allow, without any
restriction, this flood of pauper immi-
grants to break its apparently unending
Surges upon our shores.
There should be some system of in
vestigation upon the other side of the
water, so as to afford some check, and as
a measure or measures of that kind have
been introduced, the wrong lies with
those who have defeated or delayed such
wise and necessary legislation.

At a meeting in Boston. Edy

Al meeting IN boston, Gu"dTu Az
kinson used this language;
Let us call upon the executive and leg
islature OF the state TO see to il that an act
is passed 10 this end that in all contracts
entered into after the passing of this act,
in which dollars are named in promise, the
courts shall construe that the dollar meant
and promised is the best dollar that can be
made-the dollar of gold coin"
What the speaker meant. probably,
was to call on the executive and legisla-
ture of the state to urge the policy indi-
Gated upon congress and thereby nerve
that body UP to the work of defeating
the free coinage bill; otherwise his ut
terances are but idle vaporings. The
state legislature has no power to desig-
nate what shall constitute dollar, and
congress cannot fix Its value except
through a policy of discrimination.

The Peoria Journal, of Illinois, is as
well informed on the silver question as
any paper which advocates free coinage,
and the impression produced on the
editor of that paper by some recent
events is shown by the following COM
ment of the date January 16: Senator
Morgan's recent speech in congress has
virtually killed off Grover Cleveland's
chances in 1892. The speech has given
William r. Morrison the biggest boost
he has received in many a day. He is
already looming up as presidential tim
Der for 1892" AS the author of the
Morrison tariff bill, and as presumably
for free coinage, Mr.. Morrison would
seem to be thoroughly in accord with
the vast majority of the Democratic
party. What will weaken him, how
ever, as candidate, will be the recol-
lection of his defeat as a candidate for
the senate and in his own district as a
representative for congress.

plate schedule of the Mckinley bill, pay
ing to the domestic producers of TIN
plate the full increased duty in the shape
of direct bounty from the treasury;
meanwhile the tin plate which they
could not manufacture was to be admit
ted at the old duty. Had this PROPOSE
ton been accepted there is no likelihood
that it would have cost the treasury one
million a year even half dozen years
from now, which would have saved the
pockets of the people probably 80 per
cent of the tax during this decade: but
it was voted down, and no respectable
reason was ever given for rejecting the
amendment Some of the members
said such a bounty paid on tin plate
would probably be unconstitutional: But
it could not be more unconstitutional
than the sugar bounty which the same
senators voted for and passed.

Senator ingalls, delivered one of his

ing to private dispatch received at this
office last evening, attracted more atten-

minding the older members OF the i'm
mortal speech of Webster when he ami

battle-scarred heroes who saved the ma

enemies in the rear, and from present IN
dications the position he has so long filled
with so much honor TO himself, his state

Tribune.
The press agent at Wichita cares very
little for the like of the foregoing, and
only uses it TO suggest an idea that prob
ably never occurred to those who seem
to find pleasure in saying something to
compromise Wichita, and that is that
the sensational and often non-sensical
dispatches bearing Wichita dates and
relating to damaging incidents alleged to
have occurred in this portion of the
state, are the fabrications of irrespon-
sible special correspondents of papers
outside the state who use this city as the
base of their fabrications for the sake Of
giving them responsibility. The way such
reports get into the Associated Press dis
patches is through the agent of the press
where the regular reports are made up,
and who uses the specials, in part, in
making up his reports.
