UNDESIRABLE IMMIGRANTS.

| The scenes of violence and lawlessness
| in New York, Chicago and other cities,
| in which the chief performers are i'm
portations from Russia, Poland and
Bohemia, have provoked, as well might
| be expected, a renewal of the demands
| for fresh restraints upon immigration.
Hitherto there has been no great diff
Guilty in preventing undue hindrances TO
immigration, because they are repug-
nant to the liberal spirit of American
institutions. AT the same time, in spite
Of the strong infusion of nativism among
our people, they have very clear con-
ception of the great benefits which the
country has derived and is yet TO derive
from voluntary immigration from
Europe. Under normal conditions that
have prevailed from the early history of
the country, comparatively few OF its
people have seriously thought Of putting
check upon immigration. But, I'M
fortunately, within a recent period a
sort Of immigration widely different from
that which formerly peopled the United

nativism with arguments which they
never possessed before.
Formerly the flow of population to-
ward this country from Europe could
well be left to the influences of indus
trial and social conditions on both sides
of the Atlantic. There was then no
danger that the workshops and farms
of Europe would be deserted or that the
supply Of labor would be excessive in
this country. immigration was almost
wholly voluntary and individual in its
character. But now it is unnaturally
stimulated by emigration societies, by
contributions of wealthy philanthropists,
by agents of steamship companies seek
ing human freight, and by protected
employers Of cheap labor All these in
t1uences combined are precipitating upon
the country torrent of undesirable inn
migration, incapable OF assimilation be-
cause its constituent elements are far be-
low the plane of intelligence, culture
and humanity occupied by the masses Of
the American people. So far from con-
tributlng in any degree to the welfare of
the United States, these semi-5arbarious
strangers are q cause of irritation and an
obstruction to the peaceful social and
industrial development of the country.
This country desires none but voluntary,
unaided immigrants, able and willing
to take care of themselves, who do not
come bither to revolutionize it, but to
enjoy its freedom and participate in the
it Offer to social and in
dustrial advantage.

AN EXPENSIVE ROADBED.
Mahogany Used as Ties, but Found Too
Costly.

Mahogany Used as Ties, but Found Too
Costly.
It is not often that one hears Of the
employment of mahogany as cross ties
in the construction of a railroad, but
such an occurrence actually came to
pass. In the winter of 1864 railroad
was in course of construction from
Fort Smith, Ark, to Little Rock. Funds
were low with the promoters of the
enterprise, who finally found them
selves forced to surrender the property
to the creditors. The road, which was
graded part of the way and portion
of it in readiness to receive the rails,
was purchased by two English CAPT
talists for mere song. Shortly after
making the acquisition the English
buyers set out to make an inspection
OF their property.
To their great amazement they dis
covered that the cross ties laid upon
the bed awaiting the rails were hewn
from solid mahogany logs, rare and
costly hard wood. Great ranges of
these ties, of the same material, lined
the grade awaiting to be put down.
The shrewd English purchasers chuck
led with delight on making the dis
coverv, and set to work at once to have
the ties conveyed to Little Rock. Those
which had already heen laid down
were taken up and added to the stock
of the mahogany timber. The ties
were forwarded thence to New York.
from which place the timber was
shipped to England and sold. The sales
OF the ties alone Melted the spectators
a handsome profit and in lien o. MAJ
hogany ties a cheaper wood was sub
stituted by the Englishmen in the sub
seQuent construction OF the road--N.

but the governor has no power to fire
him. This matter was looked up when
Governor Steele concluded to fire him
for non-residence. There is no pro,
vision in the federal law creating Beeson
which allows the governor to depose.

has found him guilty and recommends
that the commission bounce him. which
will, of course, be done, and the gov

THE PEOPLE WILL APPEAL.
Ex-Cashier Flood May Not Get a
New Trial After All.

Ex-Casher John w. Flood Is not out OF
the wood yet. When the first glow OF
satisfaction at the successful result of Car
roll Cooks motion for new trial had died
away, it began to occur to Flood and his
friends that there was such a thing as an
appeal by the prosecution against Judge
Seawells ruling. and this is exactly what
has taken place.
Yesterday was the day fixed for the set
ting of the new trial. All were present as
before, but by consent the case was con-
tinued for four weeks to be set. At that
moment District Attorney w. S. Barnes
fled notice of appeal against Judge Sea-
Wells decision granting Flood new trial.
The Supreme Court will be asked TO inVes-
tigate the matter as soon as possible.
cit is certainly very unusual procedure
for the people to appeal III case like
This" said District Attorney Barnes, shut
it is perfectly legal. You see the people
cannot appeal from judgment 10 favor Of
defendant. but from a mere inierlocutory
order there is always an appeal
I'VE were very anxious To take this case
to the Supreme Court, anyway. We have
intim ated to Judge Seawell that we mean
no disrespect to him in our proceeding. but
we feel that il his ruling on the matter is
correct then very bad precedent is estab-
lished for embezZlers. 1t will be very hard
to secure conviction. So it is best to let
the Supreme Court decide these technical
points right away and then we'll have
something to go upon"
