AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP.

A singular Inconsistency is diScernl-
bic in the Republican treatment Of citi-
zenship. They have made it as eXpen
slve as possible to be citizen of this
republic with their tariffs, and they
have made it as cheap as possible with
their naturalization laws. Possibly this
was the result of confused notions of
the doctrine of compensation; but, no
matter what the cause, the fact exists.
1t was long the boast of their spell
binders Oh the hastings that their party
had given the foreigner easy and early
access to the franchise and participa-
ton in the government. Since they
have adopted their new fad of restrict
ed immigration we hear much more
from them of the undesrableneSS of ad-
hitting foreigners TO our shores than
we do Of their having made citizenship
easy. They now show willingness to
get back to the sound and safe old Dem
ocratic plan of long term of residence
before admitting the foreigner to
share in the elective franchise. After
having been instrumental in opening
the voting booths to the immigrant of
six months, it is amusing to read in
their organs their demand for an ''intel-
ligent ballot"
American citizenship has no value.
Our voting-made-easy laws have dimin-
ished its value. The practices under
that law have deprived it of all value.
The idea prevails, to much wider ex-
tent than is thought, that the declara-
ton Of intention to become a citizen is
all that is needed. The clerk of court
OF one of the counties of the state few
years ago prepared a list Of "citizens"
who had only declared their intentions
Its publication was surprise to most of
them and their children, who supposed
that they were full citizens. Again, it
common practice for partisan COM
mittees to hunt up the foreigners and
bring them in, get them their first pa
pers," and pay the bill for them. In
rural counties clerks have been known
to take blanks and the court seal and
ride over the county "naturaiizing"
voters for their party at the expense of
the committee or gratuitOuSly. Citizen
ship is dirt cheap.
Senator MCMILLAN proposes an
amendment to the constitution which
will prevent any person from voting
until he has become a citizen Of the
United States; that is. until he shall
have resided in this country five years
and b en- admitted to citizenship. AS
the greater number of the immigrants
now coming to this country swell
the ranks OF Democratic voters, the
senator exercises the virtue of self-de-
NAL in Offering his amendment, but
doubtless that fact will insure it the
support OF his Republican associates.
The Democrats will support it on prn-

HEARD FINE MUSIC.
Concert for the Benefit of the AS
sumption Church.

Concert for the Benefit of the AS
sumption Church.
The audience that assembled last
evening in Market hail to listen to the
excellent programme of music and song,
left the hail we'll satisfied that their
most sanguine anticipations were real
lied beyond what they expected. A
brilliant and critical audience added
Zest to the energy of the performers
and the rounds of applause which re-
warded every number bet0ken the
pains taken in preparing and the high
0rder-of merit i'll executing the delight
full programme.
The orchestral music was furnished
by local talent, comprising such we'll
known people as Messrs. LOUIS Mich,
Mathew, Frank, Henry Knauf, Henry
and Bertram Rodenkirehen and Charles
Rosmanith, assisted by Max Dick,
of st. Peter The artistic rendHionS
Of the sooists-M. Frank in his cap
tivating cornet solo, "Alpenklaenge,"
the violoncella solos of Louis Mich, the
flute solo of Ii. Rodenkerchen and the
beautiful soprano solo of Mrs. f.
ZSchokke-found great favor and appre-
citation. The Assumption church choir
did ample justice to Gounod's Impress
i've Interpretation Of the Scriptural
Psalm 49,, "On Babylon's Wave"
which was the opening number.
Too much cannot be said of the excel
lent work of Max Dick, VINO favored
the audience with an exquisite violin solo
''ScherZo Fantastic" by BazZin-the
piano accompaniment of which was eX-
ecuted by Mrs. l.. Mich, OF this city.
This was Mr.. Dicks second appearance
before a similar audience in this city.
He is bright, promising young artist,
whose star IS IN the ascendant. When
he appeared in New York some time
ago he merited from the New York Sun
the praise that she easily oyereame the
greatest technical difficulties. and
played with such depth that he won the
admiration of the whole audience, and
was forced to respond to an enthusiastic
encore"
But nothing appealed so powerfully
to the sympathetic instincts Of the au-
dlence, young ana Oh, as The cleVeE
productions of the orphans from st. Jo-
seph'S German orphan asylum, West
Ninth street. The little tots sang and
acted with freedom and consciousness
of pleasing that was calculated to draw
out the enthusiasm of the house to its
utmost extent. Their correct singing
and concise action gave evidence OF
careful training and deep interest. Miss
Katie Simmer is entitled to honorable
recognition for her piano accompaniment
to the musical Numbers executed by the
little orphans. The entire affair, cOn-
Quoted under the auspices of the S.
Rosa Young Ladies' SOdality OF the AS
sumption Church, was a brilliant sue
cess and a credit to its kind and noble
spirited managers.

adopted. Mr.. Bynum's report, in which
Representatives Layton, of OHIO, joins
and in which Representative Stockdale
concurs, although he thinks it does not
go far enough, condemns without stint
the employment OF the Pinkertons.
A summary OF the evidence in the
Homestead affair is submitted without
comment, and the hope is expressed
that the thought of the age will devise
some means TO secure an equitable
division OF the profits between employ
er and employees. In conclusion. the
opinion is expressed that the evils dis
closed by the investigation are entirely
beyond the reach of federal power, and
that remedies, if any can be devised,
must originate with. the state govern
ments. Representative Broderick, in
separate minority report, says that in
the closing of factories and other works,
public as well as private rights are in
volved. and he maintains that, although
it would be an innovation. it is legal for
the states to pass compulsory arbitra-
ton laws.

LEVEE PRIVILEGES.

The prevailing sentiment in st. Paul
is to promote railway Improvement and
encourage new railways to enter. While
this spirits commendable, the expert
ence of American cities shows that it is
the easiest prey to imposition. Wherever
it exists there is always a danger that
the seductive propositions of railways
will lead it into extravaganza and unDec-
essAry measures. Unless the liberal
spirit is toned with good judgment, a
city is pretty sure to suffer to some eX-
tent.
The latest proposition Of the Fifth
Ward Transfer company has an entic-
ing tone to it; put, ia the opinion of the
GLOBE. it is not sufficient. At first the
company wanted an exclusive right of
way along several miles of levee. Now
it has modified its request so as to admit
other railway companies to occupy the
right of way upon certain conditions.
These levees have cost the city mint
of money. The West side levee has been
dedicated to manufacturing purposes,
and the splendid growth of enterprises on
it is ample proof that the step was most
wise. The city is fully as much in need
of more industries as of more railways.
Now if this new transfer company.
which is said to mean really the ell
trance of a new railway, is equipped
with the large amount OF money for i'm
prOvementS it asserts, it is certainly
allie to purchase its right of way, as
other companies have done. If 1t has
not the money, but is the scheme of adj
yenturers, the magnificent donation it
asks would probably avail the city moth
ing. The company asks the city to do
nate every foot of its right of way. some
seven miles long, in the corporate liuI-
its. The time Is past when ST. Fanl
should give lands, privileges Oh frau-

"A POLITICAL TWIST
Given to the Car Coupler Debat,
in the Senate.

Given to the Car Coupler Debate
in the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Z. = Senator
Chandler managed to give a political
twist to the debate in the senate today
on the automatic coupler bill. He
brought up resolution in the national
Democratic platform which denounced
the Republican party and the Repub-
lIcan senate for not having provided
legislation for the protection of railroad
employees, and he insisted that the
position of so many Democratic sena-
tors against the bill was inconsistent
with their party fealty. He twtted
them with the fact that only eleven of
them had voted yesterday to take up
the bill for the repeal of the Sherman
act, Knowing the declaration of the ma
tIOnal Democratic convention OH the
subject of silver, and knowing the en-
treaties Of the preSident-elect to have
the Sherman act repealed before the 4tf
OF March. And he predicted that the
course OF Democratic senators at the
next congress on the subject of the tar
III would be equally at variance with
their party platform. Mr.. Wolcott.
while arguing against the automatic
coupler bill, said that no other senator
than Mr.. Chandler could have found a
political advantage in it. No action was
taken on the bill.

ARMY BILL CONFERENCE.
A Number of Important Proyi
siO,,S Agreed On

A Number of Important Proyi-
sions Agreed On.
WASHINGTON, Feb. THE confer
ence on the army bill discussed that
measure for upward of two hours today
without coming to a final determination.
A number Of important measures were,
however, agreed upon. The 100000
added by the senate for the transporta-
ton of troops was stricken out and the
increase of pay of sergeants from $25 to
$50, as provided by the senate, was re-
duced to tine tirst-named figure, as stipu-
lated in the house bill. The provision
that no person should be permitted to
re-enliSt after having served ten years
was modified so as to prevent the reen-
llStment OF privates under those coEdi-
tons, OH the principle that private
who had served ten years without Sc
curing promotion was not the kind OF
material desirable for re-enlistment.

WASHINGTON, Feb. THE bill to
establish national university. intro
duced in the house by Gen. Hooker, of
Mississippi, is almost identical TO that

Vermont. 1t provides for post gradu-

versity Of highest rank, with endowed
fellowships for scientific research. with
facilities for utilizing the scientific col
Iections and forces at the capital, grants
the grounds set apart for national
