The Difference.

1--WE heartily approve" declared the
Democratic National Convention Of o year
ago. "al legitimate efforts to prevent the
United States from being used as o dump
ing ground for the known criminals and
professional paupers Of Europe" The Con-
vention demanded rigid enforcement Of
the laws against the importation Of foreign
workinRmen under contract to degrade
American labor and lessen its wages" So
said the Democratss
I'VE favor the enactment OF more strln-
gent laws and regulations for the restrIc-
tion OF criminal, pauper. and contract Inn
migration" SO said the Republicans. In
National Convention in Minneapolis. two
weeks before.
But how great difference there is be-
tween promise and performance is shown
by the disclosures made before the Senate
Committee Of Investigation Of which Ben
at0r HILL IL Chairman. The testimony
thus far adduced shows conclusively that
the Republican Administration was recreAnt
to the pledge made by Its Chicago Conven-
tion In 1888. which nominated Mr.. HARRI-
solg. That Convention declared Its hostility
20 the introduction into this country OF
foreign contract labor. 1t demanded tho
"rigid enforcement" Of the laws against
1t then existing. and 1t favored "such i'm
mediate legislation as should exclude
thereafter such labor from our shores.
However. 1t appears that the flow of OBJ
3ootiOnable immigration. barred by Federal
law. was arrested only during the quaran.
tine excitement OF year ago. and then by
the act Of four own State officials. Convict and
contract immigrants came In scores. and
snen proof Of the fact was furnished to the
Federal prosecuting officers here they did
nothing about 1t. Assistant District Attor-
noy MOTT testified on Friday that he did
not submit to the Grand Jury the evidence
furnished him. because he didn't believe
that body would indict. Wouldn't 1t
have been proper to give the Grand Jury g
chance p asked Senator HILL. with char
acteristic terseness. To this. Mr.. MOTT re-
piled that he was still investi eating the mat.
ter. He had been In ONCE three years, and
In that time there had been no convictions.
That's how the Republican Administra-
ton kept Its pledge rigidly to enforce the
existing laws and to fortify them by new
legislation; and this. with control Of both
branches OF Congress. they were perfectly
able 10 do.

More New York Failures.

The failure of Messrs. Henry Allen
s. Co., stock brokers of 81 New St.,
New York, has been announced on
the stock exchange.
Messrs. B. L. Smythe & CO., bank
ers and brokers Of 81 Exchange place,
have also suspended payment.
The failure of A. IL. King y Co.
was the cause of some surprise in COM
mercial circles, owing partly TO the
fact that under one name or another
the firm has done business for 4C
years. Harry Cohen, the cashier, says
that the liabilities of the firm were
now definitely known to be $250,000,
and he thought the assets would cover
the liabilities.
He attributed the failure to the
backward season. After the inven-
tory of the stock in all of A. III. King
& Co.'S stores has been taken the cred
itors will meet to decide upon a basis
for settlement without litigation.
There are no preferred creditors, all

to have a secret remedy for the bite
OF a mad dog. This he applied TO

out the wrong end of the rooster and
then wandered in some way that
amounts almost to a miracle along
the lateral 1ue to the main flue and
then forty feet further toward the
big chimney through gases where
breath can hardly be drawn. The
company at first refused to shut
down, but finally, at the importantly
of relatives, the fires were put out
and the search made.
