Boycotters Enjoined.

John HI. Havlin, theatrical manager,
and the Walnut Street Theater company,
of Cincinnati, have each brought suit
for $50 900 damages and for an injunc-
ton against certain labor organizations
and their officers. The suits are based
on the recent strike by the stage en-
ployees ordered by the Stage Employees
union, and supported by the Carpenters
union, the Amalgamated Council of
Building Trades and the Central Labor
council.
The suits for damages allege that these
organizations have interfered with the
business of theaters by threatening boy
colts and otherwise, and the prayer fol
injunction Ia based on the allegation that
they propose to continue to interfere by
asking the public to withhold patronage
from the theaters.
Judge Kumler, before whom the suits
were brought, issued temporary injunc.
tions restraining all the defendants from
interfering in any way with the manage
ment of the plaintiffs business. The
Judge warned the defendants that sum-
mary punishment would follow any vio'
lation of the order.

In various quarters fresh cries have
arisen against immigration to the United
States, and it has been proposed to make
this the great political question of the
hour. So far as the mere partisan
aspects of this question are concerned
they may as we'll be dismissed. All
parties are agreed that the laws against
dumping on these shores the pauper and
criminal elements of European popula-
tions shall be vigorously enforced.
There is law of congress against
assisting immigration; and if it should
be administered in its letter and spirit
the yearly list of immigrants would be
reduced. The law prohibiting the i'm
portation of contract labor occasionally
catches some fish in its net; but there is
no doubt that much greater proportion
slip through its meshes. Through the
agency of the steamship companies large
numbers of unskilled laborers are i'm
ported into Pennsylvania and some othe,
states, where they steadily depress the
rate of wages.
When the existing laws against un
desirable immigration shall have beeI
fully and faithfully administered, wha
next? 1t is seriously proposed to diver
from these shores to Australia, Brazil
Argentine Republic and other regions
that valuable migrating element which
has contributed SO greatly to the growth
of the United States?
1t is necessary that there shall be {
thorough understanding on this poin
before it can be made practical issue
Many of those who earnestly supper
every measure for preventing the i'm
portation of vicious, ignorant and semi
barbarous foreigners, who cannot b
assimilated, will not go a step to chec
the voluntary immigration of energetic
industrious and intelligent Europeans
The governments of Europe are q
desirous to keep at home this element {
their populations as we should be
receive it.
But behind the agitation against TO
eigners is the notion that the voluntet
immigrants make fatal competition wit
American labor, and that wages woul
rise if this competition should be sh'
out by sweeping edict against immigr

Good Moose Hunting in the North.

Mr.. Colin Rankin, Hudson Bay factor
at Mattawa, is in town. In conversa-
ton he stated that considerable moose
hunting is taking place near Mattawa,
on the Quebec side of the river. Hunters
from the United States and England
visit the locality where the moose are
very plentiful, and kill the animals for
their heads, the Indian guides getting
the meat and hide, besides $3.50 per day
as their recompense. No cows or young
animals are killed, only the old bulls
with the big horns.
The Indians can so closely initiate the
moose call that there is no difficulty
whatever in getting shot, as the moose
bull when he hears this peculiar call at
once goes to see what it means, when
the hunter, if he is an accurate shot,
kills the noble beast.-Toronto Empire.

Fifty sbill,nes for a Mustache.

A mustache is not regarded as mar
ketable commodity but man disposed
of his upper lip ornament the other day
to beardless youth who envied him its
possession. The two men were sitting
in a cafe, when the youth, in moment
of guileless desire, said, II will give you
fifty shillings for your mustache." :"
"Done," replied the other with dra-
matte promptitude, and calling for a
pair of scissors he laid the mustache on
the table. The young fellow protested
that he was only joking, but his COM
panion issued a county court summons
for the amount agreed upon and re-
ceived it without much trouble. Lon

Commissioner of immigration John
B. Weber and the executive committee
of the steamship conference met in New
York and agreed upon list of twenty
four questions to be propounded to emf
grants in Europe by the subticket agents
of the steamship companies. The ticket
agents will be required to fill out the
question forms in duplicate, so that
copy may be sent to the immigration au-
thorities of the American port to which
the emigrant is destined. The object of
the questions is to prevent the departure
from European ports of paupers, ex-con-
victs, contract laborers and persons suf-
fering from disease, instead of stopping
them on this side, as heretofore, and
sending them back at the expense of the
steamship companies. These are the
most important questions:
Is passage paid through to destination
Who has furnished the money for passage?
State if any portion of this was contributed
by government, parochial authorities or any
charitable institution.
If prepaid In America, give name and ad-
dress of sender.
Are you in good healthP
Are you or any members of your family COM
ing with cripples or persons subject to any dis
ease, mental or physcal2
Have you, or any members of your family
coming with you, ever been imprisoned or in
any asylum or charitable institution
| What relatives have you in America?
Have you, or have any of your relatives for
you, made an agreement to work for any per-
son, firm or corporation In American
II such an agreement exists, give particu.
lars and the names of the party or parties for
whom you are to work.
| What occupation do you intend to follow in

| Have you ever been In America before2 II

Whatever else may or may not be
true with regard to present social tend
encies, it is certain that weak eye
sight, nervous diseases, insanity and
crimes of dishonesty are increasing in
excess of the population everywhere in
civilization. There are more criminals
who can read and write in our peniten-
tiaries than there used to be; there are
perhaps nearly two insane persons where
there used to be one; there are three
school children and young people wear
ing glasses where there used to be one.
The reason is to be found in the mod
ern system of education. The public
schools have been modelled on the col
lege of century ago, where the student
learned Latin and Greek, little ancient
history, with some mathematics and
physics, all out of books. Burning the
midnight oil while coming books was
the road to wealth and happiness. The
book cramming system has now reached
the point where it must break down. 1t
has proved utterly inadequate to the
needs of mankind at the threshold of
the Twentieth century. We must have
a new system of training for school chill
dren. The kindergarten plan through
out is the true one.
The new system must educate the
child harmoniously, developing his
physical, moral, mental and affectional
natures. 1t must introduce him to life
with trained eye, hand, heart and rea-
soning powers. He must learn to think
instead of to memorize.
The beginning of the new education
will be to burn the dead pile of books
which is breaking down the youth.
Printed rules of rhetoric, grammar,
punctuation and composition must be
the first to go. What does it profit any
human creature to know the definition
of synechdoche, anapest, or even the diff
ference between a metaphor and sim
ile2 What good is served by torturing
poor little wretch till he learns to re-
peat the rule for long division2
A school superintendent of many years
experience says that the boys who re-
cited the best lessons and memorized
rules best sunk in after life to inferior
positions, while the ones who had tt
take time to think were those whc
climbed into prominence. Physical per
fection, moral culture, the sentiment o
brotherhood, the power to reason, polite
ness, manual training and the three r.
are what we want in common schoo
, education now. Specific training for
particular trade or profession can b
superimposed upon this.
8 Clear away the old trash. Make room
{ for the new education which takes il
D the whole human being. The teache
who sees this and applies it first will b
: the one whose pupils will never tire c
r school, the one whose pupils will ente

C1EvE1AND's prompt refusal to al
low himself to be annoyed by horde
of hungry ofice-seekers has had its
effect, and the public will be given a
slight rest, until he is inaugurated at
least. The mad rush made upon the
president elect and his intimate
friends by Democrats for revenue
only" deserved a rebuke-and they
got it, too. No one questions the
right of the victors to the spoils, but
it is not necessary they should act as
though they just escaped from an
insane asylum.

ton. This policy, then, is aimed not SO
much against the idle, vicious and feeble,
who would not or could not work, but
against the strong, intelligent, skillful
and thrifty immigrants who have been
for two hundred years among the
builders up of this country's institutions
This theory also leaves out of view the
consideration that without this sturdy
element the development of the vast
resources of the United States would
have been well-nigh impossible. While
developing production, these immigrants
are also consumers of products, and help
to provide abundant employment Tor
American labor, instead of crushing 1t
with undue competition.
A glance over the vast and varied IN
dustrial field of the United States shows
how much this country owes to immigra-
ton in the past, and what suicidal folly
would be the attempt to prohibit it in
the future.
As for the "foreign influence" which
inspires so much dread in the bosom of
the Nativist, the danger from. this
source, whatever it may be, must grow
less and less with the relative gain of
native population. During the years of
1880, 1881, 1882 and 1888 the tide of
immigration was much stronger than it
has been for the last four years.
The increase of native-born inhabi.
tants of the Uuited States is greater
every census decade in proportion to
the total growth, and the importance oi
immigration as well as the alleged
foreign influence declines. Hence
there is no occasion to make any con
cession to the spirit of Nativsm, whicl
betrays itself in the outcry against i'm
migration.
1t is interesting TO observe with wha
eagerness and with what success the ns
tions of South America are inviting in
migrants whom this country is so niue
inclined to reject. The overhowir
population of Italy is pouring into Braz
and the Argentine Republic more rapi'
than into the United States.
Into the Argentine Republic alor
nearly 10000 Italians immigrated
1889; and in the same year nearly ,0(
Frenchmen were attracted to that coul
try, or there time as many as annual
migrate to this country.
With the subsidence of political di
, orders in the South American State
there is no doubt that very large pc
!, ton of the intending emigrants fro
9 Southern Europe will be drawn to tn
t region; and thus the immigration pro

ONE of the abuses the incoming
legislature of this state should attack
is the Legislative Record, the official
organ of that body. 1t costs tire
mendous amount of money to keep
that paper going, yet, owing to its
uninviting appearance and the irregu-
larity of it's distribution, not one out
of every hundred who receives it reads
what it contains. If the legislators
must have an official paper to let the
public know what is done there, they
should see that there is a radical
change made in the form and delivery,
or else shut off the supply of money
that keeps it alive. AS it is run at
present, it is nothing less than a
wanton extravaganza.

HENRY GEORGE is very happy
man these days. He still declares
that protective tariff is the only one
that has any excuse for it's existence,
If the protective tariff is abolished,
the Democratic "tariff for revenue
only" will fall to the ground OF its
own weight and then we shall have
free trade and there will be an oppor-
tunity to push to the front the single
tax on C2eCeiand lVort6
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1892-12-01

The next congress, although it will
contain less Democrats than the pres
ent one, will have nearly twice as
many out-and-out free traders as ever
sat there before. If anyone said ten
years ago that man who believed in
absolute free trade would get to con
gress he would be considered insane
yet thirty eight congressman were
elected on free trade platforms last
month. This does not represent the
total number of free traders in con
gress, only those who got there b,

courage within the breasts of the toilers to de-
