THE IMMIGRATION BILL.
Strong Arguments i'm Favor of 1t and an
Appeal for Its Passage.

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Permit me to call your attention to n
bill which Is now before the Senate
touching immigration. 1t is "Bill No $40"
The only objection that any one can bring
TO II, think, Is that II asks for money; but
certainly reasonable sum. judiciously
expended in this work, would be a wise
and profitable investment. Laying aside
all per ny-wise. poundfoolish" concep-
tons of the subject, Is IL not probable
that to create the proposed bureau of inn
migration and sustain its work would
tighten. rather than increase the burden
OF taxation? Our people are groan-
ing under a weight of taxes upon
large holdings of real estate which are
earning nothing by cultivation and inn
provemert, and are. therefore. imposing
upon them an ever-increasing loss. The
lists of delinquent lands advertised for
sale are annually growing larger. the peo-
pie are becomr & more disheartensd, and
still more rapidly abandoning their farms.
This condition OF things is harped upon
by opponents of Democracy as being
chargeable TO our party, and IS made 10
augment discomfort In the country dis
tricts. have no hobby. but l confess
think this subject is second to more
just now. and our Legislature will make a
grave mistake IL II refuses or nrglects to
rass this Senate bill giving the bureau
(as provided for by the Constitu:ion a
legal exstei ce and its WORK the ssDc-
ton Of the laws. even II the appropriation
should be cut down to merely enough to
maintain the same as TO incidental ex-
penses and pertinent literature for the
first year or two.
A TRANSFORMATION.
Immigrants Will not come In any CON
siderable or great number unless solicit
ted. invited. persistently urged; but IL
they came. bought farms and stock end
implements. would II not relieve these
who are land-poor now? Would II not de-
crease the delinQent sales? While II
would not cause money to grow on
bushes by the wayside. II certainly would
transform thousands Of acres from barren
wastes into producers Of annual incomes.
Now-delinquent property would become
prompt tax-paying property. and the
States revenues from such property would
increase as improvements increased. All
this would enhance the values Of all
other property and thereby still further
increase the tax revenues OF the State.
Discomfort, want, and much litigatt
would be rapidly driven from our bor-
ders. In short, the settlement Of inteili-
gent, industrious people upon our vast
areas Of unearning lands would go far
toward changing our lamentations into
songs OF peace. plenty. and prosperity.
This bill b2o) asks for 5000, and ought
TO have Il. II the State will create and
sustain the bureau for a year or two
II can be made self-sustain!ng In large
degree, and IN very few years win be-

II probable that there are many problems
In mental philosophy incapable At present
of solution by any known human methods.
IT is probable that a century hence much
greater light will be thrown on this SUBJ
Ject.
II Is worthy OF the most Iatient end
the most thorough investigation. j. should
be studied In the light Of pure reason.
Science may yet so a great way towards
the accomplishment OF It's solution.

FIammarion Talks AbOut Venus,

have read with great pleasure a re-
mark made by one OF the readers OF the
European. edition of the Herald on the
possibility of the planet being inhabited
Beyond doubt the best-established cos
mognic theories sanction the belief that
Venus Is not so old as the earth. but
In my opinion, at least, this is not a sufti-
Gent reason for concluding that It has
remained so long as we have In state
OF barbarism. Just as there are con-
siderable differences I'm the activity Of

PREHISTORIC REMAINS.
Several Curious Graves Containing Large
Skeletons and Ornaments Found.
Correspondence of the DIspatch)

Correspondence OF the DispatchD
HILLSBORO', o., February &.-Farmer
Warren Cowen. OF Hillsboro'. o., while
fox-hunting recently. discovered several
ancient graves. They were situated upon
a high point of land in Highland county.
about mile from the famous "Serpent"
mound (where Professor Putnam, OF har-
ward, made interesting discOveries). As
soon as the weather permitted Cowon
excavated several of these graves. lie In
formed your correspondent that the graves
were made OF large limestone slabs two
and half to three feet in length, and a
foot wide. These were set on edge about a
foot apart. Similar slabs covered the
graves. single one somewhat larger
was at the head and another al the feet.
The top Of the grave was two feet below
the present surface. Upon opening one OF
the graves a skeleton upwards OF six feet
in length was brought TO light. There
were a number Of stone hatchets, beads.
and ornaments of peculiar workmanship
near the right arm.

DIED IN Battle.

Several large flint spear and arrow
heads among the ribs gave evidence that
the mighty warrior had died in battle.
In another grave was the skeleton of q
man equally large. The right leg was
broken during life. and the bones had
grown together. The protuberance at the
point of union was as large as an egg.
and the limb was bent like a bow BY
the feet lay a skull of some enemy or
slave. Several pipes and pendants were
near the shoulders.
In the. other graves Cowen made
equally interesting finds. 1t seems that
this region was populated by fairly
intelligent people, and that the Serpent
mound was an object of worship. Near
the graves is a large field in which broken
implements, fragments Of pottery. and
burned stones give evidence of a prehis-
toric village. Probably the people who
were buried on the hill lived in this viii
