better qualified by their intelligence and
habits Of industry to the develop
ment of the country than the
generality Of the native Mexicans.
They would prove a valuable substi-
tute for the mixed and indolent popula-
ton to be found in many parts of Mexico,
and the climatic conditions are doubtless
preferable to those of the United States
for the particular classes Of Cinnamon
that are used to agricultural occupations.
At the same time, the project may help
to effect the object sought by the franz
ers of the exclusion act. who seem to be
quite as anxious to get rid of the Chinese
we already have among us as they are to
prevent any more accessions of the same
sort. The policy of the Mexican govern
ment in regard to this question has al
ways been liberal. At least it is ham
pered by no such p~rejudices and politi-
cal conditions as inspire the unfriendly
legislation of the American congress.
It seeks rather to solve the industrial
problem by encouraging the influx of
labor as we'll as capital from all. direc-
tions, and the possibility of the Chinese
vel becoming troublesome or obnoxious
factors in Mexican progress is a contin-
gency too remote to be entertained.

KARL NELSON, the Grand Forks en-.
bezzler, will adopt the ~:'insanity" line of
defense. OF course, there is no doubt
but that Nelson is insane. He might
not have been insane when he borrowed"
over ten thousand dollars from the bank,
of which he was cashier, but he is insane
now, because it is very advisable for him
to be insane. He will probably grow
woIse at the occasion demands, and
when the time set for trial comes round,
he may be violent, indeed. Had Nelson
won from the gamblers, Dahl and Murray
as much as he lost he would not have been
quite,so insane, but still the germs of
insanity would have been there, await
ing development fer use, whenever he
might be in trouble. It is a sad thing
that Nelson is insane. Had he been
sane, when he stole his little Doodle and
covered up his tracks so we'll, he would
be now deserving of praise for his ex-
pertness in ~rascality, but an insane per-
son is irresponsible, and it is feared that
he may not get the proper credit for
"cuteness," which he deserves.

AN editorial writer in the National
Corporation Reporter, Chicago, sum-
marizes the decision of the South Da-
kota supreme court which declared the
state banking law of that state uncon-
stitutional, and says:
! "The court refused to follow the ruling
of its sister supreme court of North Da-
kota, made in reference to the North Da-
kota banking law of like import. State VS..
Woodmanse, Nat. Corp. Rep. Vol. 2, D. 6
N. W. Rep. OIL. That court ruled that the
matter of regulating and prohibiting pri-
vate banking and all banking, not express
ly authorized by law Is strictly Within the
legislative discretion under that branch of
the police power relating to the public
safety. The impression made upon the
writer, after studying the [SOuth DakOta]
opinion closely, is that it is unsound and
that the terse opinion of the North Dakota
supreme court is the better law"
The South Dakota court sustained the
objection urged against the law by the
bankers who were already incorporated,
viz, that the law was unconstitutional
because it required them to reorganize

Both houses have passed the Chinese
exclusion bill as modified by the con-
~ferrees, and the president has signed it.
In it's present form, the bill re-enacts the
existing laws for a period of ten years,
and provides for their execution. All
Chinese laborers now in the country
must, within a year, according to the
revised bill, apply to the collectors of in
ternal revenue of their respective dis
tricts for certificates of residence.
Those found in the country at the ex-
piration of one year without such certifi-
Gates may be arrested and deported to
China unless they can prove, each by at
least one credible white witness, that
they we're debarred, by sickness or other
unavoidable cause, from procuring the
necessary documents. In case of the
loss Of a certificate, sufficient time will
be afforded the Chinaman to procure a
duplicate from the officer who issued it.
A fine of $1,000 and imprisonment for a
term not exceeding five years is the
punishment for the alteration of certif-
Gates. On an application to any judge
or United States court by a Chinese per-
son seeking to land, to whom hat privi-
lege has been denied, no bail shall be al
lowed, and such application shall be
heard and determined without nneces
sary delay.

M1NNEAPoL1TANs have made and are
still making great preparations for the
convention. OF course st. Paul will
wheel into line when the time comes, and
lose that nasty little envy and jealousy
in the greater desire TO show that the
twins are the coming cities. It was but
natural for st. Paul to want a conve
ton after Minnie got one, and
but natural, too, for st. Paul to feel
a little disgruntled at her failure. But
the residents of the sanity city cannot
but see that the convention will be an
advantage to st. Paul, financially and
otherwise. Those who attend the con-
vention are certain to stop a time in St.
Paul, and the and advantages
Of each city will be we'll and widely adj
vertised. Come now, St. Paul, and
smile again.

Doctor PARKHURsr said recently, in
addressing a group of young men,:
IF I had a thousand young men who
would take to this work with earnestness
and think that the city did not belong to
the police, but to them, I would take my
oath to whip Tammany every November
until Tammany became nothing but a
sinking memory"
There are two sides to every question,
and it is generally found that both sides
are taken. Doctor P%arkhurst's action in
the now famous Hattie Adonis case has
been criticised, commented upon and
discussed until it has been pretty
thoroughly aired. 1t is putting it rather
strongly to say that his action was
wholly unjustifable. Before any one
can say that such a procedure is alto
gether wrong, one must be thoroughly
we'll acquainted with the motive which
prompts the action. If Parkhurst
honestly believed that the police of the
city of New York were not doing
their duty, and that such a mode
of prosecution as the one he adopted was
absolutely necessary to the suppression
of the evil, then, even though others en-
gagged in the same calling as Doctor
Parkhurst might present other and pre-
ferable methods, he is justified by his
belief. But if his only motive was a
desire for a little cheap notoriety, then
his action was wholly unwarranted, and
deserving of condemnation. The adage
that 'if one touches pitch one becomes
defled" is not always applicable; and
because DoctorParkhurs saw that which,
previous to his seeing, ne knew to exist,
8 hardly sufficient cause for the state
ment that he is not longer fit to preach.
And because he witnessed the depths of
degradation to which women can fall,
when he knew, before, that such depths,
we're, is hardly a reason for his immedi-
ate condemnation. He who thinks of
evil things, but dare not show that he
thinks of them for fear of a little right
eous horror, is infinitely worse than he
who dares to come forth boldly and say
that he does think of them, and that he
thinks he has found a way to remedy
the evil.

IT IS stated in a dispatch from the city
of Mexico that efforts are being made by
wealthy Chinese parties to obtain i'm
portant concessions of land for colonial
ton purposes in the state of Tamaulipas,
the Ultimate object being to remove to
that part of Mexico all of the Chinese
now in this country who may desire or
who may be compelled to leave the
United States, says the Washington
Post. The lands that are wanted are
said to be admirably adapted for the
cultivation of sugarcane and various
tropical fruits and produce. 1t is quite
probable that the scheme contemplates
further immigration from China as we'll
as the exodus of Chinese who are already
here-the importation of colonists who
are specially adapted to the agricultural
purposes indicated-and it is more than
likely that favorable terms can be had
of the Mexican government, mas
much as many Of the Chinese are much

The general arrangements should all be

The general arrangements should all be
made before the schools are dismissed
for the long summer vacation. Then,
during the summer months when the
pupils are free from school duties, they
can work out their plans for the local
celebration. When the school opens for
the fall term the official program will
have been announced. They can then
turn their attention to the details Of the
celebration. Working upon this plan
schools will come up to October 10Th
thoroughly equipped, and in every way
prepared for conducting a celebration
which will be a credit to themselves,
their teachers, and their town. They
will avoid the confusion, disappoint-
ment, and incomplete exercises, likely to
result if no plans are made until the
schools have perfected their reorganiza-
ton late in September. Let teachers
and pupils respond at once to the un-
usual opportunity which the proposal
for October 18th offers them.

ON October 10Th the Columbian Elk

ON October 18th the Columbian Ex-
position grounds will be dedicated in
Chicago, but surely the fifth century of
our existence as the American race
should be ushered in by a demoustra-
ton more imposing and ~far-reaching
than an event Of mere local scope. The
idea that the 100000 pupils in our
public schools unite in a celebration of
that eventful day is an excellent one. It
is an inspiring thought that the signif-
canoe Of this anniversary is to be flashed
home to the boys and girls who make up
a fifth of u entire population. One
thing, however, must be impressed upon
them-the necessity for early action.

AMONG the. bills passed by the senate
during the week are: To enlarge yell
lowstone National park (about 33 per
cent?, and establish it's boundaries. (By
the terms of this measure about 1,4OO
square miles of territory is added to the
park, making the aggregate area about
5000 square miles. That portion of the
northern edge Of the park which lies in
Montana is cut of, and a large area of
mountainous and wooded country on the
east is added, which will prove of great
value in the preservation Of game. The
secretary of the. interior is required by
the bill to cause an accurate survey to
be made of the boundary lines of the
park, and to have them plainly marked.
All lands heretofore included in the park
and not included within the new bound
aries, and all adjoining lands which have
been hitherto reserved, are returned to
the public domain.) 10 encourage
American ship-buildlng. (To permit the
%Inmansline to secure American registry
for the "City of Paris" and the "City of
New York" In return for this privi-
lege the company must, by the provis-
ions of the bill, construct in American
shipyards two steamships, each of which
shall be Of not less than 1000 tons. Any
steamships registered under the provis-

The Last Sad Rites.

The Presbyterian church was filled
Wednesday, with the friends Of the de-
parted Shed Lambert, who came to look
for the last time upon the we'll known
face, and to bid him a last, sad farewell.
The Rev. L. O. Sloan of Glencoe, de-
livered a feeling address, touching
upon the dead mans life, his sudden
death, and the existing necessity for
those who remain to prepare to follow
him. After the sermon, the friends of
the departed were invited to look at him,
as he lay in 'repose in the funeral casket.
This done the long procession of friends
followed to the Fairview cemetery, where
the remains. were inferred.
The entering wedge of a complaint
that may prove fatal is often a slight
cold, which q dose or two of Ayers
Cherry Pectoral might have cured at the
commencement. It would be we'll,
therefore, to- keep the remedy within
reach at all times.

ACTING in accordance with his per-
sonal investigation of the flooded dis
trict, and with the expressed opinion of
a public meeting of citizens, Gov. Boies
as 500 as he returns to Des Moines will
issue a statement of the need of Sioux
City for aid for the poor, and an invita-
ton to the people of Iowa, and to the
country generally to contribute thereto.
Gov. Boies' action in this matter has been
prompt and proper from the first. Upon
learning of the disaster, he telegraphed
an inquiry as to the facts, offering to do
what he could. He received the reply
that the citizens here hoped to he able to
relieve the destitute. When later
the results of the flood were bet
ter learned and he was requested
to come, he responded promptly.
After looking over the flooded district it
was the governors opinion that the
situation made necessary and proper a
request to the public for aid. The citi-
zens' meeting by resolution expressed
the same opinion and requested the
governor to make the scope of his invi-
tation general, so as to apply not only
to the people of Iowa, but also of other
states. Such a statement will go out to-
day to the general public over the
governors signature. It is not to be
doubted that the response will be prompt
and ample for every legitimate need
