NEWSPAPER TALK.


There is a growing opinion that
the foreign element of our p0pula
ton is already as large as we can
safely carry and asslmilate. The
steady influx of immigrants has
proved disturbing factor in the So
luton OF the labor question, and jus.
tice to our own people demands that
an attempt be made to protect
them, at least for a time, against
further disturbance from the same
source. This would be true even if
the foreign immigrants now coming
hlther were all of a desirable class,
but 1t is well known that a large
proportion are not. For some time
past, owing to cheap transportation
and the competition of railroad and
steamship companies, the quality OF
foreign immigration has been steadi-
~ deterOratinE. 1t is notorious,
also, that many paupers and crimi-
nails have been sent hither by the au-
thoriteS Of different European coun.
tries. 1t is bad enough to have our
labor market, already overstocked,
still further gluttcd by steady in
tluX OF foreigners, but 1t is far more
alarming to contemplate the rapid
increase of our criminals and pan.
pers from the same cause Indian.

Gov. Fuller has taken the ground
that the recent punishment inflicted
by the county court in the case of
DR.. Bourbonnais OF Burlington, con-
victed of two second offences at liq-
nor selling, was too severe and
rather more than fitted the crime; so
he has pardoned the respondent, on
condition that he pay the total costs
of the legal proceedings-about seven
hundred dollars. Bourbonnais had
been fined $240 and costs, and sen
fenced to the house Of correction for
two months, but had only served a
few days when the governors inter
vention released him from duranc,

Those newspapers and individu-
ais who gave the late legislature
credit Tor generosity in the pas
sage OF bill providing for free
text books were victims OF mis-
placed confidence; for the legls-
lature did no such thing. The
measure went through the house by
8 handsome majority, and everybody
took it for granted that the bill was
safe. A large number of the mem
bers themselves, on returning home,
assured their constituents that free
text books would be the order Tor
two years to come. They were
wrong. however, as the bill was
killed in the senate during the rush
of the last night-though just who
struck the fatal blow, or how the
accident happened, is one of those
things that no fellow can hnd out
1t is a matter of regret that any
carelessness or indifference in the SEN
ate should have defeated a measure
which promised relief to the peo-
pie of the statc-especially to that
portion of them who feel the burden
involved in the purchase of school
books; and the unaccountable dis
appearance of the bill reflects very
discreditably upon the upper
house"

COURTESY.
Americans Liable to BE Surprised Z
Gentle Manners Among the Poor.

-
Americans Liable to BE Surprised by
Gentle Manners Among the 0Or
The Chinese are, as a rule, the most
courteous people I have ever come in
contact with, says a writer in the
Arena. When it is taken into consider
alton that the majority of the Chinese
who come to this country belong to
the lower OF lowest class, their gentle
manners are truly surprising. I have
seen parties of well-dressed Americans
go into their stores, poke about among
the goods, or wander into the club
room, watch the games, handle the in
struments of the orchestra, and ask all
sorts of questions concerning them.
The intruders were treated as welcome
guests, their questions answered, and
tea, CONNECTIONS and cigarettes offered
them on departure. Fancy the recep-
ton that would be accorded to q party
of unidentified Chinese who attempted
to take a look through one of our own
fashionable clubs! In the restaurants
their conduct is the same. I imagine
that If three or four Chinese were to
take it into their heads to dine at m
Of u up town restaurants they would
be subjected to many unpleasant re-
marks, probably some insolence from
the walters. and, if they should prove
MS awkward in handling the knife and
fork as the average American is with
the chopsticks, would cause considera-
BILE merriment among the other guests.
But In Mott street the practice of good
breeding is different. Time and again
l have seen some good-natured Chinese
let his own dinner grow cold, that he
might show some clumsy American
stranger, who was struggling with the
chopsticks, how to use those elusive
but useful implements. 1t is a very
simple trick after it is learned, and one
which I have often found useful at 9TH
er places than at q table in q Chinese
restaurant. Once mastered, with q
couple Of pencils one can improvise q
very ~serviceable pair of tongs to pick
up a bee or struggling worm, a bit Of
hot metal or any such small object
which one does not care to touch with
ones fingers. The first stick should be
held rigidly, about three inches from
the lower end, between the ball Of the
second finger, the first joint of the
thumb and the hand, just below the
knuckle joint Of the first finger, very
much, in fact, as a clumsy schoolboy
holds his pen. The second stick should
be held almost exactly as q good pen
man holds his pen, lightly, between the
ball of the thumb and of the first fin
ger, slightly resting along and steadied
by that finger, to just between the Sec
ond and knuckle joints. Chinese meats
are all served cut into small pieces, 50
as to be readily eaten with chopsticks,
thus materially reducing the labor Of
dining.

America Turns Its Back on Anglo

America Turns Its Back on Anglo
Saxon Tradition.
If we accept the definition Of the Rus
sian penal code, a revolutionary con-
spiracy Of any kind is, constructively,
an attempt upon the life Of the Tsar,
and, as such, is punishable with death.
Is the government Of the United States
prepared to admit that a political con
spiracy which may threaten the Tsar's
life is, in fact, an attempt upon his life
so direct as to deprive the conspirator
of the right, of asylum in the United
States under the pending treaty? If
we are to accept the Russian law as
our guide we must be prepared to sur
render all Russian refugees who have
conspired against the Tsar's govern
ment and who have undertaken to
overthrow it by. violent means. In
making such surrenders,, however, we
shall do for the support and.encourage-
ment Of tyranny what the government
of Great Britain has always refused to
do, and shall turf: our backs upon the
history and the traditions of the Anglo
Saxon race.-George KEENAN, in Forum.

almost inhuman brutality has just come
to the light of the public. The fourteen
year-old daughter of William Behrens, a
farmer living eight miles north of Fair
mont, gave birth last week to a child.
The girl swears that she does not know
who is the father of her child or that lib
critics were ever taken with her by any
man. The supposition is that she was
chloroformed and that while in-an insen-
sible condition her ruin was accom-
