AT O. ID. BAILEY'S.
A Gallon of Strawberries All That Was
Stolen, However.

Sneak thieves made a small raid
on G. d. Bailey last night
and carried Off a gallon of straw
berries that he had purchased for
to-day's dinner. They would have
taken more, but Mr.. Bailey
was awakened and went to the rear
OF his residence to investigate. The
thieves heard him and heat retreat.
They had entered the kitchen and
store room and had piled up a lot of
children's clothing for the purpose OF
carrying it away, but in their
haste to leave they evidently
forgot it. Mr.. B,iley has only one
suit, he says, and this is always close
about him. The children, however,
have more than this and they came
near losing them. The thieves ran
sacked everything in the kitchen,
and ruined several jars of milk, but

"in bond" In one OF his speeches In the
Senate he declared that he had ascertained
that this practice was mere subteyfuge
resorted to as n means OF defeating the
main object OF the immigration laws"
1t may be regarded as certain that Con-
gress will adopt some new legislation upon
this subject. in order to clear up any doubt
concerning the meaning or bearing Of the
laws already in existence.
There Is not any reason to suppose that
the charitable societies which have given
guarantees or assurances in behalf OF
any destitute immigrants have had
any intention OF violating or cir
cumventlng our laws. The bonding
system came into existence almost I'M
noticed as means of admitting some
refugees who arrived here under distress
ing circumstances: and It was tolerated rs
means OF relieving the public from the
apprehension that these persons would
become a public charge. II had not
been directly prohibited by any law.
and 1t did not seem to involve any
serious danger. But II has taken on alarm
ing proportions within year. and has per-
United the landing OF many thousands OF
undesirable immigrants whom existing
laws would exclude II applied according to
their true intent We are sure that the
charitable societies which have countc-
nanced the system cannot desire that 1t shall
be maintained forever. or that this com
munity shall continue to suffer from its evils.
We are confident that they must desire that
it shall be brought to an end in the interest
OF all concerned. even Of those who have
made use Of it.
We do not see how the new order from
the Treasury Department can fail to bring
about the adjustment Of the Objectionable
system: and yet it is very sure that Con-
grcss will enact legislation concerning 1t
more definite and explicit than any now on
the statute books.
