LONDON, Dec. 26-The suggestion
is being made that the Dublin explosion
was the work of anarchists, and that it
was part of the plot discovered by the
police here short time ago to carry on
dynamite propaganda i'll Great Britain
in behalf of the anarchist cause. The Of
ticials OF Scotland Yard, however, con-
denim the suggestion that the outrage
was the work of anarchists, as they do
also the runorS that it was directed at
officers engaged i'll the recent arrests of
anarchists. 1t must be said that the
news of the explosion caused feeling
of uneaSineSS in London. and it was evil
dent that those in authority feared
that attempts might be made to
blow uD public buildings here. Early
yesterday morning the scenes about the
houses of parliament. the tower of Lon
don, the Victoria, Charing Cross and
Paddngton railway stations and other
public buildings reminded one forcibly
OF the days of the dynamite ontrageS in
this city. All the precautions taken IN
those trOublOuS times were renewed

The tieadAies: assault OIL the national exist
cnce was exclusively American i'll its origin.
3. The impulse TO development was in the
North, and immigration did not furnish that;
bui il furnished the material for develop
ment and added TO the impulse.
6. The impulse toward development was
at the South, for no man ever surpassed the
type that gave us Washington, Madison, Jef-
ferson, Mason and Marshall, but the mate
rial for development was lacking.
T. immigration has been along the lines
of material. moral and poIlical progress,
and apart from the lines OF material. moral
and political sta2nation; and. therefore. 1t
may be assumed that il is consistent with the
former, and contribuIory to it, and incon-
slstent with the latter
S. The inflow of immigration has not In
VOWED i'll any way the degradation of the
American, but has lifted him in the scale of
society. The immigrants. coming wave on
wave, have pushed the Americans upward,
or, to speak more accurately. perhaps, have
given them opportunity TO throw off lower
labors and assume higher cares. The Ameri-
cans of the old stock are III the professions
IN art. in the most important branches OF
business; and except on farms it would be
difficult TO find one of them engaged i'll man
ual labor.
g. Without immigration there might have
been progress but it would have been slow;
and those vino condemn the former must
censure the rapidly of the latter.
The gist of the situation is, that this
country can afford to be particular as to
the quality of its immigration; it can
afford to reject the scum and the
refuse of Europe and Asia, but it can
not afford to 90 to the unwise and un-
civilized extreme of prohibiting OF even
curtailing immigration Of the better

For years that mount up into decades
and centuries the religions OF the Orient
have acted strictly Oh the defensive.
They nave done little or no prnselytiz-
ing, and have cOntented themselves
with merely resisting, as best they
could, the aggressive spread Of Chris
tianity. But news of notable depart
ure from this programme comes to US

ALEXANDER RUSSELL WEBB given
his allegiance to the prophet,
but with true Yankee enterprise
he has set about to carry the Koran
right into the heart OF ChriStendom.
Defensive tactics don't ilbe with his
American notions, and he has assumed
the aggressive. He proposes to carry

PENSION REFORM.

Every deserving soldier will be cared
for, but the camp followers and de-
SerterS must go. Reform the penSlon
roll and place a barrier between it and
those who prostitute it to base uSeS.-
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Every honest pensioner will rejoice
TO see fraudulent case stricken from
the IisJ. for every such case is detri-
mental to his own standing, but every
pension examiner, whether Democrat
or Republican. knows that the sweep
ing charge of fraud and rascality in the
pension list is not true.-ColoradO Sun.
If the pension rolls are to be what
they were meant to be. trolls of honor"
instead Of pauper directory, the re-
form must be undertaken by reprtSen-
tative men of the North, soldiers and
citizens. The South is paying at least
$50, 100000 annually for pensions. 1t
can stand this drain if the North can.-
Louisville Courier-Journal.
One OF tie blacKeSt chapters in the
history of the Republican party is that
to be found in the records of the pen-
sion Office, which during the present
administration has been notorious for
the iDcompetency and loauacity OF Tan
ner; the corruption and audacitv OF the
Raums, and the industry of the Dudley
cOrruptionists who were fastened upon
the bureau by the recipients of the fruit
which they stole from the political
orchard. In the language of Bill Nye.
let the Republican party enjoy itself
during the next three months. for 1t will
be a long time dead.-Butte Miner.
BY its administration of pension af-
fairs the bureau charged Herewith has
deliberately fostered the conviction that
the treasury exists mainly for the en-
couragement of those who can trump up
claim against 1t, and especially claim
which reSts-or pretendS to rest-on
service or aid to the government during
the war. 1t is patent to the entire COM
munity that there has been at no time
any sufficient scrutiny into such claims
when presented to the pension depart
ment, if there has not been connivance
on the part of the department. i'll the
presentation and allowance of fraudu-
lent claims. Detroit Free Press.
The increase of the list is not to be eX-
planned except through the assumption
that the pension office accepted proofs
which would not have been sufficient if
rigid examination had been made. and
that there was a general desire on the
part of the chief aud the SubOrdInateS
in the Office to grant pensions whenever
the opportunity could be found. The
result of this method of conducting the
business Of the pension Office has been
most unsatisfactory. The pension list
has been so swollen that no one be-
lieyeS the increase is an honest one, and
the people are generally demanding that
it be revised without unnecessary delay.

THE NEED OF 1T.

That there is real need of greater SIM
plicity in our transfers of realty, and
greater security of possession, every
man has had in one way or another ami
pie experience. If he has bought
home or made loan Oh one, lie has
learned the Importance an abstract Of
title cuts in the transaction, and he has
also learned how literally lawyers esti-
mate the value of the knowledge of
realty law they have accumulated.
Sometimes - often, in fact - he has
learned how fallible is the opinion for
which he has paid roundly when some
overlooked link in the title comes up to
straighten out the chain and GUST him
Of the possession of what he fondty
deemed indefeasibly his own. Then as,
turning from the past history of his title
as shown by the abstract, he looks down
the vista and sees how that abstract
will lengthen out with the successive
transfers, drawing with it the bills for
examination, he will feel as If his alb
stract were veritable Old Man of the
Sea whom he cannot shake off by get
ting him drunk; worse the luck.
The present system is an eyer-growing
burden on the public. 1t is matter of
public safety that the record of the con-
veyances be securely kept This re-
QulreS Il vault i'll registers offices, tor
which inadequate provision has been
made. Young as our state is. the vaults
of most registers offices Will be filled in
a few years with the volumes containing
the records of the muHimentS of title.
Some idea of this increase may be
gained from the fact that since the great
fire Of 1871 in Chicago the transfers fill
over loo volumes. But this is the least
benefit which the Torrens system
brings. There is cheapening effect on
the value of land in the possibility of
imperiection Of title. In Tennessee and
Kentucky, where titles are said to be
'knee deep" because successive grants
from the state overlap each other, land
values are deprecated because every
purchaser has TO face the probability of
law suit. Even with us there is the
same apprehension of disputed title
that there is Of fire. always possible
and destructive event. The advantages
OF the system arc a saving in expense,
III time, and in its security. If the com.
mission make report, the bill should
have the early and serious attention of
the legislature, thing rendered posi-
bic now by the shutting out of the vast
bulk of private woodcnucKs by the
amendment adopted.

AVOID EXTREMES.

sin medic tutissimus ibis" IS a good
old Latin proverb which signifies that
extremes are dangerous. Nevertheless,
In this land Of popular government
there is always tendency to rush to
extremes when public problem comes
up for consideration. Calm and con-
servative Judgment usually prevails in
the end, but just at first the extremists
appear to have it all their own way.

linent than the following suggestions
from the Rochester (N. .Y.) Post Express:

IMMIGRATION.

We have the right to insist upon the
proper degree of intelligence and educa-
ton, and upon the possession Of a rea-
s0nable amount of means by immi-
grants. But that is not all. 1t were
better to have a hundred absolute pau
pers land OH our shores than one red
eyed, long-haired fiendish anarchist,
who comes here to work out the evil
purposes of morality perverted and
debased nature.-NeW York Advertiser.
The figures show that for the first six
months of this year 353,96l Immigrants
came here, while during the first six
months of 1891 there were only 325, ,307,
an increase of 2S654. If this rate of in
crease had kept up. the total for the ten
months would have been about $40, 900,
instead of only 493,2 ,276. 1t may be esti-
mated therefore. that about $4,000 inn
migrants have been kept out who would
have come to this country if there had
been no cholera and no special Quaran-
tine orders. As it is, the years immi-
grafton will be about 525, ,0C0.-NeW
York Press.
If we find ourselves too popular with
emigrantS and are obliged to curtail our
hospitality a little we shall harm no one
in protecting ourselves. There is the
greatest abundance of new country,
with land and climate as good as ours,
where they will be more welcome. For
intsanee, Southern Africa and Southern
South America Brazil wants even the
Observation-Disclosures American.
The sentiment is general, we believe,
that the time has now come to close our
doors. more or less, to European immi-
grants. We have already on hand at
least as many as we can furnish en-
pl0yment to without depriving others
of either full work or full pay. And
the character OF our most recent impOr-
tations is not by any means such as to
benefit the country.-NeW York Com

THE ROUMANIAN WAY.

How the Telephone Is Managed
in That Interesting Country.
Detroit Free Press.
The two Roumanian cities, GalatZ and
Braila. Oh the Danube, were lately con-
nected by telephone, which is, like the
telegraph in that country, an institu-
ton Of the state. Before its opening an
ordinance of the government for its use
was published in the official gazette,
the principal part of which is as fol-
lows:
"A person who wants TO have inter
course with another by telephone is
bound to notify that person beforehand
by letter, telegraph OF otherwise"
A Mr.. Kir Zaridi, in Braila, dealer
in produce, was about to close cUri-
tract for barley. He desired. however,
to learn beforehand the price of barley
quoted at the board of trade in Galatz.
For that purpose he went to the tele-
phone office and. after paying the fee,
desired to get telephone connection
with Mr.. Pastramaki, his correspon-
dent In GalatZ.
Very we'll; have you informed Mr..
PaStramakl?"
What for? He is in Galatz and the
person 10 WHOM WANT 10 telephone.
That would not do, sir. Here is the
ordinance. Before you can telephone
to him you must inform him beforehand
by letter, telegraph or i'll any other
way"
Nonsense! Is the government crazy?
Maybe they ask me to travel to Galatz
and inform him that on q certain day
and hour he may Ue at the telephone
office to receive communication from
me?''
''Yes, that would do. too," the official
said.
Mr.. Kir Zaridi had to give UP his bar
