INDUCING

Commenting on the difficulty exper-
fenced by The southern states in secur-
ing desirable immigration to that sec
ton. the San Francisco Call remarks
that it is one OF the most difficult things
in the world to force immigration.
Great Britain and Canada have spent
enormous sums to transfer starving
Enclishmen and Scotchmen to Manitoba.
The country they we're invited to occupy
was fertile; it will grow thirty-hve
bushels Of wheat to the acre. Its insti-
buttons we're liberal; the terms on
which land was offered we're generous;
but it has proved impossible to induce
Enelishmen to settle in large numbers,
and at the present time the outgo OF
population is about as large as the in
come. By Offering bounties, free land
and loans on improved farms, tho Ar
g~entine Republic succeeded in attract
ing in the last ten years about 100000
people from Europe. chiefly spaniards
and Italians. The amount spent on the
enterprise is between 100000 and
$6,OOO,OOO. When the collapse in Ar
centine finances took place in 1891 the
bounties and loans were withdrawn, and
at the present time as many foreigners
are leaving Buenos Ayres as are arriv-
ing. italian and Spanish peasants are
starving at home; but they do not seem
to be inclined to transfer their homes to
the pampas, where they could live in
plenty.
The explanation is that men are at
tached to the place Of their birth, and
and will not accept exile if they can
help it. We observe the working Of the
proposition in this state. The farmers
of the river valleys and of New England
spent a life of unremitting toll for their
daily bread; yet they are slow to shift
their tent to the other side Of the noun
tains, where in ten or fifteen years they
might acquire a competency. In choos.
ing a home, too, men are governed as
much by a desire for congenial compan-
ionship as for material advantages. An
immigrant wants TO pitch his tent
among people who think and feel as he
does, and not among people whose ideas
of life are different from his own.
For these reasons the colony system
seems best adapted for new sections OF
the country. The plan followed by the
Manhattan company in placing Holland
families on lands in the Gallatin valley
is very successful. Old friends and
neighbors are here started n in life,
surrounded by conditions to which they
have become accustomed. They have
their own church and pastor, their own
schools and social customs, they lead a
happy and contented life and in a few
years all will have amassed a compe.
tence. We believe the coming immigra'
ton will all be on the colony plan.

A FADING ISSUE.

The Hawaiian annexation boom seems
to have pretty we'll died out and while
it will reappear in the next congress, it
is all but certain that it will be voted
out. That enthusiasm which follows
any proposal to acquire now territory
has worn away with a cold study Of con-
ditions. The best presentation of these
in a brief way are gwen in a paragraph
from Judge Thomas M. Cooley's views,
in the last Forum. He says:
"It is perfectly manifest that unless we
are to treat the American and English set
tiers upon the islands as persons entitled to
establish for themselves institutions at
will, regardless OF the wishes Of the re-
mainder Of the reo.le, VIZ cannot for n
moment sanction what is proposed; but II
we make the recognition and give effect to
their will by receiving the proposed gift.
we arc bringing incogruous elements into
a union never framed to receive them, and
we are iustifyinQ the extension OF the con-
stitution former for the government of a
union of harmonious and contiguous states
of the North American continent. so as to

countries inhabited by races radically diff
ferent in physical and also mental charac-
t~eristics to those by and for whom the
union WINS established. Ia whatever quartz,

So long as other governments can be
prevented from acquiring possession Of
these islands, it is the duty OF Uncle
Sam 10 first develop his own country
before looking toward others. In the
great west we have millions of acres o.
arid land which can be made ready fol
the settler and highly profitable if The
government will give its aid to irriga-
tion. This work is far more patriot,
and important than the annexation of
country that will bring new condition
and a new and undesirable people unde

WE hope the art editor Of tho Ana
conda Standard, whose long-range crit
icisms OF tho Montana silver statue,
which he has never seen, have attracted
so much attention, will got a chance TO
visit our girl at the show. His brother
critic, the Spokane Review man, was
there last week and this ia how it
moved him: cit is the capitalization Of
thought and the result Of philosophy.
These are the psychological aspects OF
the Montana statue. The physical fea-
lures are nothing less than magnificent.
The face will captivate and the form is
enhancing. An impressionable man
can hardly look at the statue without
being taken with an impulse to embrace
it. The shapely waist, the voluptuous
bosom, the plump, tapering arms, the
graceful neck, q perfect pedestal for a
more perfect head-all conspire to touch
the heart and hold it in the wise Of adj
miration."
The Review man does not tell us
what restrained him from his wild i'm
pulse to clasp her in one long, fond,
metallic embrace, but no doubt it was
the presence Of Judge Bickford at the
critical moment. We hope the judge
will be on hand, too, when the Ana
conda brother is introduced to Miss JUS
titia. In these emotional natures hate
is sometimes suddenly changed to pas
sionate love and there is no telling what
might happen. On second thought we
believe the judge had better put a
barbed wire fence around her at once.

VALLEJO. CAL. May 1.-The big
coast defense vessel Monterey still lies
helpless in the stream below Mare
Island lighthouse. The story that sine
was disabled by four large fishing nets
having foulei her propeller has been
thrown aside and another is in circula-
tion which makes the trouble far more
serious. 1t is said that the boilers of
the great fighting machine are leaking
SO badly that steam cannot be kept up,
and that the Union Iron works. which
built the vessel, has a large gang
of workmen aboard her trying to
Patch Up Her Weak Points.
The story further goes that the Mon

unfrequented water, where she now
lies, so That he. boilers could be tested
and repaired without the facts becom-

to go aboard or to hold communication
