These figures and the facts which
they set forth are BY no means new. but
they are worthy of repetition, a. long as
the absurd condition which they indi-
cate continues to exist. That it should

bring into this state the eggs that We

states over several Thousand miles OF
distance and up and down heavy grades.
into q ssate where the climate allows
hens to lay nearly all the year through,
and where poultry raising is rather =
luxury than hsrdship-it sesms incon-
ceivable, but it is an actual fact.
Il 10 very hard to account for
the failure of the agricult urists of
tho state to avail themselves of the OPP
portnnities that lie right az their doors.
But these statistics of actual imports
tell the story. 1t may be said with re-
gard to canned goods. wines, ETC.. which
are imported in such surprising qusnti-
ties, that q perverse trait Of human ma.
ture makes people look with contempt
on things produced near home and turn
with preference to the imported article.
But this is certainly not true OF such
staples as meat, cheese. butter, eggs and
poultry. No one ever stops to inquire
where these come from, and the average
man would, on general principles, prefer
the home product if he could obtain it,
A number of years ago the idea pre-
vailed here that this country was en-.
tirely untitled for general agriculture
because of its extreme dryness. Il
would seem that some remnsnts Of this
curious hallucination yet exist, a. the
state still relies upon other sections OF
the union to supply it with S0.0c0,0 900
pounds Of material which could easily
be produced at home.

IMMIGRANTS ENGRAVING.

The report OF Superintendent Stump
OF the National Immigration bureau
Shove q material falling off in the num-
Der of immigrants arriving in the Unit
ed States. 1t is estimated by this re-
port that since October. 1898. the exo-
dus OF foreign steersge passengers from
the United States has been greater than
the number arriving, and Mr.. Stump
concludes that there are now fewer for.
eigners in the United States, who came
as stesrage passengers. than there were
at the end Of the fiscal year 1898.
The tables accompanying the report
show that during the fiscal year 2S8, 8,020
immigrants arrived in this country. OF
these 2S5. .63l were landed and 1889 were
dsbarred and deported at the expenee Of
the various steamship lines transporting
rhem. In addition, ALI immigrants, W ho
had been landed, were returned to the
countries whence they came, having be-
come public charges within one year af-
ter arrival in the United States, at the
expense of the steamship lines bringing
them, II the cause Of their becoming
public charge existed prior to landing,
otherwise at the expense of the imlni.
grant fund. OF the immigrants landed
$4,000 were destined for New York state.
$4,000 for Pennsylvania, 25.000 for Mac
sachusetts and $4,000 for Illinois, the
others being scattered throughout the
United States, no other state receiving
greater number than 10000. Immi.
grants destined for southern states, ell
told, did not exceed 10000. OF the inn
migrants over 16 years OF age 4l,0O0
could not read or write.
A comparison OF the figures for the
last fiscal year with those for the pre-
ceding one will show the marked extent
of the decline. The immigrants allowed
TO land during the fiscal year ending
June 30th last, numbered over 150.-
600 less than these permitted to land
during the previous year. which showed
decrease of over 180 900 as compared
with the year preceding. The decrease
Rs compared with the fiscal year 1894
was 80 per cent. In other words, there
was falling off of nearly 800, 900 in the
number of immigranta in two years.
The numbers coming from the countries
supplying the greatest proportion and
he decreases therein are shown in the
following table:

UNDER-PROD UCTION.

We hear good deal OF talk in certain
quarters about over.production of some
California products. 1t is interesting to
consider what examples are presented
OF decided uuder- production. In pa-
per read before the Technical Society of
the Pacific Coast, Mr.. w. G. Curtis
calls attention to some notable exam
Piles OF this SORT.
California is an all~round agricultural
state, producing, in one section or an
other, every farm product of any i'm
portance to be found in any other part
OF the union, as we'll as some half 8
dozen valuable articles raised nowhere
else in the country. Yet the railway
figures for last year show, according TO
Mr.. Curtis, that 40,C00.0O0 pounds Of
stock. farm or poultry-yard products,
either in their natural state or manu-
factured into staple commodities, were
imported into the state.
OF this amount SO. 900, 600 pounds was
composed of such articles of food as
butter. cheese. poultry. meats, lard,
eggs (of which latter there were $780,
600 pounds), condensed milk, etc. In
addition there was shipped into the
state by rail over $4,000. 900 pounds of
canned food goods, one-hali as much
more by sea, such as fruits, vegetables.
fsh, oysters, meats, etc. OF dried fruits

The superintendent suggests that all
immigrants coming from countries
which grant polics or penal certificates
upon application be by regulation re-
quired to produce them upon arrival in
this country. He adds that had we q
law requiring atatiatics ,ofsthe number of
steerage passengers returning to Europe,
as well as those arriving. the number
now in this country who came as immi-
grants would be considerably reduced
by deducting those vino come and go
annually. thus swelling the aggregate
by being. counted several times, and it
would be secertained that our own citi-
zens are entitled to more credit for the
unparalleled development OF our country
than has hitherto been given them.
Both the receipts aud the expendi-
lures of the service show decreases as
compared with those for the preceding
tiscal year. The receipts amounted to
1925, 328 and the expenditures to 1904,
500. decrease of $103, $3.50. IA in receipts
and Of $42, ,454 II in expenditures. The
decrease in expenditures was caused by
measures adopted by the bureau looking
toward an economical administration Of
affairs-measures which were adopted
during the latter part OF the fiscal year
1894.
This is an excellent showing for or
ganized labor. one OF the chief reasons
for the exodus OF an undesirable class OF
foreigners being the sturdy opposition
of free American workingmen to the
competition OF the pauper labor of
Europe imported by such greedy and
unscrupulous monopolists as Carnegie
and the Pennsylvania coal harous.
There are advocates of this class of labor
even in this community, and much Of
the opposition to organized labor ia due
to the fact that its antagonists cannot
coerce it to point where it must sur
render its privilege OF demanding and
securing fair. living wage in return for
the productive results of it's effort.

THE MYSTERY of the purchase OF the
Chino ranch deepens. Az matter of
fact it appears to be getting out of its
depth entirely. Che announcement
that q. H. Phillips has paid Richard
Gird $l,500.C00 for the property was
followed by the report that Claus
Spreckles had drawn 81, 5000 from the

edit newspapers put this and that to-
gether and agreed that Claus Spreckles
had bought the Chino ranch. Il 10 now

men declared they would ne'er consent, but
they have consented far enough to pass an or.

run steam cars on the street. and who "shall
operate said road in connection with and as
part of the Southern Pacific railroad system,
and shall run trains direct from its said psssen
ger depot in Pasadena, to its main depot in the

Editor Edward Rosewater, of the
Omaha Bee, was, on Tuesday of last
week, sentenced by Judge Scott to
thirty days imprisonment in the
county jail and to pay a fine of $500
for alleged contempt of court. After
six hours behind the bars, the state
supreme court granted supersedeas
and Mr.. ROSeWater was released The
Offense with which Mr.. ROsewater was
charged, was the publication in the
Bee of an article charging Judge Scott
with Partially, gross and unjust dis
elimination in the matter of two men
who were caught robbing a depot.
The poor man was sent to prison, and
the son of wealthy parents was given
his liberty without the case coming to
trial. The facts in the case were not
denied, but Judge c.. R. Scott, who had
dismissed the case in question, felt ag-
grieved at the word pull used in the
article, and had the reporter who wrote
the matter brought before him for
contempt. After a disgraceful scene
in court the reporter was sent up for
30 days, and then Judge Scott con-
cluded to arraign the editor Of the
paper on the same charge. A more
fragrant abuse of judicial power than
that depicted above, would be hard
to find; and nowhere can be found, or
be demanded a greater or more posi-
tive proof of discrimination in judicial
matters between the rich and the poor.
Judge Scott has evidently started a
"Bee" buZzing in his bonnet, which
harbOrs him no good.
