scribed in chapter 318 Of the Acts of 1898.

CLOSE DOWNIHE GATES.

The Union Must aud Shall be Pre-
served Immigration Must and Shall be
Restricted, it not entirely suspended.
There you are. And there is the
germ of the whole proposition. If the
vicious foreign element already within
our gates can not be Americanized
and civilized, as is most improbable,
let it be placed under the most rigid
and continuous surveillance of the
government until the primogenitors
die off or become harmless through
old age and riotous living. No more
Huns, Poles, Fins, Slavs, Belglans,
Bohemians and their ilk should be
admitted into this country under any
future conditions and circumstances.
Broad and almost immeasurable as
is our vast domain there ought not be
a single foot of its soil occupied by a
Hun, a Fin, Slav, Bohemian or
any one Of the nondescript European
races whose members are bred, born
and educated in anarchy. By nature
they are unalterably opposed to all
law, to all power and to all authority
as against their inordinate desire to
rob, burn, kill and destroy. The gates
at Castle Garden should be closed
against them and their kin, forever.
Those of them that now cucumber
American soil can not be brought or
educated to citizenship. This fact is
fully established and that they are Ola
metrically opposed to all law and
government is not to be gainsaid.
Such as we have can be controlled
only through the most watchful
vigilance. Their tribes should not be
increased, especially through the i'm
migration of more, and possibly even
worse types of them than we now
are now cursed with.-Felicity (Ohio)

CREDIT FOR APPROPRIATIONS.

Anent the remarks of the Weldon
NeWs relative to the appropriations
secured tor rivers and harbors in this
State, the following article which comes
to hand since our comments were
written, is apropos. A gentleman who
signs himself "Democrat," writing
from Raleigh to the Wilmington Nes-
senger, says:
There is not a man in North Caro-
lima at all conversant with legislation
in Washington who does not know
that an undue amount of credit for
river and harbor appropriations is
constantly being given to one of our
Senators. Under the Constitution all
bills carrying appropriations of course
originate in the House, and of course
the House being near the people and
elected every two years, the amounts
are smaller than it is intended they
shall be. When the bill reaches the
Senate, body not elected by the
people, and holding for six years, the
amount is raised by the joint efforts
of both Senators from the State
interested. This is natural, and this
is SO. The hardest work is generally
done in the House. There the member
does the originating, planning and
devlsing, and the Senate, for obvious
reasons, simply raises the amount.
Take your Cape Fear appropriations
now and for years back, and ask
Waddell, and Bennett, and Green,
and Rowland, and McClammy, and
Alexander, and Vance jwere he alive,
If l have not stated the truth. And
think you Vance did not use his
powerful personal influence with his
Democratic fellow Senators to aid
Bennett, Rowland and Alexander to
give you deeper water in the grand
old Cape Fear? But there was log
rolled Republican influence sometimes
gained, where a thousand dollar tad
pole creek vote was secured i'll exchange
for million dollar vote for Penn
sylvania, Illinois, or New York harbor,
and at the further expense of twenty
four years silence, even when noble
people were being traduced, and great
issues were at stake. Vance catered
not 10 that kind Of influence.
Give just credit, but do not omit
the real deserving.

They have just passed through a
very exciting political bout in Will
mington. 1t is a war between two
Democratic factions, one known as
the regulars and the other as the
reformers The row is about the
manner Of holding the primaries, they
will tell you, but to man up tree it
is easy enough to see that it is simply
a fight over Ransom. The regulars,
headed by the county executive COM
mittee and the Office holders, are tor
Ransom, and the retormers are against
him. The primary election to appoint
delegates to the nominating conven-
ton, was SO close as to be in doubt,
but each side claims the victory. TO
the NezVs it looks like Ransom has
lost New Hanover.-Chariotte Nevs.

IT is now stated that Capt. PEBBLES
who was recently nominated for the
legislature from Northampton county,
and who was first reported as being a
Ransom man, says that he is opposed
TO Ransom. Well, who would have
thought it ?-WilsOn 4Ipanff
When the returns are all in-that
IS when the occasion arises for men to
speak out and announce themselves
plalnly-a great many will declare
their opposition to Ransom, of whom
you would not have thought it.

THE Danville Times echoes a note
of warning which can not be too
often sounded when it says:
Too many foreigners are coming
over to this country, desperate charac-
tiers of all sorts and if it is not stopped
soon, the very worst consequence will
follow. The Northern States are in a
great deal more danger than the
Southern nevertheless, the members of
Congress from the South, we are sure,
would join in passing stringent laws
to check the tide of immi grafton.
There is no objection to forei gners,
as such, but to the class tina. large
majority of them represent. In
discriminate immigration must be
stopped, and the sooner it is done the
better it will be for the country. Good
citizens we want and will welcome,
but paupers and criminals Of all sorts
there is no room for in free America.

1t is as criminal to gamble in a church

wicked in the saloon-keeper as in the

for a violation OF the law another ought
not to be exempt. Why should Chris

while the saloons are prosecuted? In
our judgment Christians should suffer
