We trust that when Congress gets ready
to take up the very serious question OF re-
stticting immigration. some member will have
an acceptable measure ready for presentation.
Tho question has been debated for years with
out result, and many impracticable bills re-
specting 1t have been introduced into the Sen
ate and the House. 1t cannot be that any fur
Their Investigation Of 1t is needed as 1t has al

committees and commissions. A law that can
be enforced early next year. when the spring
immigration sets In. ought to be enacted soon
after the opening OF the regular session. We
notice that many papers often speak as though
immigration to this country had almost come
to an end These papers do not watch the re-
ports from Ellis Island. 1t was very large all
through the hard times. and is yet large. The
widespread desire for its restriction must be
needed by Congress.

President peixoto's Novel Fleet.

The effort of the Brazilian Government to
extemporiZe navy. with which to destroy
the one that has revolted under Admiral
MELLO. promises some interesting results.
AS the recent civil war in Chilli was made
remarkable by the actual blowing up OF
great war ship by automobile torpedoes.
and also by the use in a land battle of small
calibre magazine rifles. so now we may see
In service the pneumatic dynamite thrower
and tho submarine gun.

chant steamship I'll Cid, carrying II METFoRD-

one or two other vessels.
The Interesting feature about this little

warfare, and that 1t includes the three
forms OF aerial torpedoes, aquatic torpe-
does. and the submarine gun. All three

other high explosive. to be used at varying
ranges. the pneumatic tube having the
longest. and the submarine gun the short

an ordinary high-power ships battery.
1t is further obvious that there is little other
choice for the PEIxoTo Government If it un-
dertakes naval warfare. Armorclads can

The VOORHEES, bill repeating the purchas-
ing clause OF the SHERMAN act has been
passed by majority OF only eleven, and
the Democratic members Of the Senate
prove to have been nearly equally divided.
twenty of them being recorded In favor OF
the measure and eighteen against 1t. More
over. the very preamble OF the VOORHEES,
bill demonstrates that some of its Demo-
cratic supporters were at heart reluctant
to do anything which might tend. even for
a time. to the demonstration OF silver.
Under the circumstances. we must recog
nize that tho indignant and ill-tempered
comments on the prolonged discussion Of
the measure were not justified. The strong
minority of the Senate were acting strictly
in accordance with their constitutional
rights. and with historical presidents. In
their resistance to bill which they deemed
injurious to their constituents; and the
wonder is, not that their resistance should
have needed sixty days to overcome. but
that it should have been overcome at all.
1t seems to have been taken for granted
In many quarters that. because the House
OF Representatives, in which States have
weight Droportionate to their population.
saw fit to repeal the purchasing clause OF
the SHERMAN act with comparative prompt
ness and by n large majority. 1t was the
duty OF the Senate to pursue similar
course. Those who have argued on this as
sumption have ignored the federal princi-
pie of our Government. whichis impregna-

Twenty Million DolIars' Worth or Gold
Must Go from Hero to Philadelphia.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 31.-In communication
to Congress to-day the Secretary Of the Treas
ury asked for en- appropriation Of $4,000 for
freight on bullion and coin between minis and
assay offices for the current year. He says
that owing to the necessity OF transporting q
large amount Of gold bullion from the Assay
ONCE in New York to Philadelphia for coinage.
and OF gold and silver bullion from the Mint in
Carson City to the Mint at San Francisco for
coinage. as well as the increased deposits OF
gold bullion at the minor assay Offices. 1t will
be necessary to obtain an appropriation to
supply deficiency.
This grows out Of the fact that for several
years past there has been no transfer OF
from Carson City to San Francisco. At Carson
City there Is 100000 OF gold bullion and
S8OO.0OO Of silver. The amount OF gold
bullion In New York that is to be carried to
Philadelphia aggregates 2O0O0.0O0.

Why Won't They Understand?

Our esteemed contemporary, the Post
Intelli0encer Of Seattle. one Of the ablest Re-
publican organs OF the Pacific coast, AYERS
that the Democratic tariff reformers are
preparing to enact the free trade pledge Of
the Chicago platform"
1t would be interesting to know in what
line or word Of the Chicago platform free
trade pledge can be found. In our under
standing Of that instrument. free trade is
entirely ignored and set aside. Protection
Is denounced to be unconstitutional. and
free trade Is equally ruled out. The plat
form declares that a tariff for revenue
only Is the only constitutional tariff; and
in such tariff there cannot be any place
for free trade any more than for protec-
ton. Free trade means condition in
which there are no customs duties to be
paid in crossing State lines, and the high
est type Of free trade in this world Is that
which prevails between the different States
Of the American Union. This Is absolute,
perfect. complete. unquestionable free trade.
But when We come to levying duties on
all imported articles. without favoritism.
without any purpose of advancing one in
terest or depressing another, but treating
them all absolutely alike. according to the
rules of perfect equality and justice, how
can there be any free trade, or any ap-
proach to free trade. or any hint or sugges-
tion Of free trade. In such tariff?
IT. Is really astonishing how many Jour-
nalists and statesmen appear to be unable to
understand this simple subject. or to appre-
ciate the comprehensive effect and bearing
OF the principle of a tariff for revenue only.

with gold, and is feet II inches high
and 3 feet square at its base. 1t extends

distance of about FIVE feet below the pyra

There are at least two great regions
in which Chinese are wanted and well
coined. They are Central and South
America. A company in San Francisco
has contracted to supply 10000 Chinese
laborers to planters in Central and South
American states. Another contract
made by the same company binds it to
supply 10000 Japanese and Chinese as
agricultural laborers in Peru. The lat
ter contract was openly made with the
Peruvian consul general at San Francis
CO. Some nations have not our little
prejudice against contract labor.
