An Evidence of Better Times.

The World quotes immigration statistics
TO show that hard times have practically
disappeared and better times have come
in this country. There is no unusual dis
tress anywhere in Europe, and yet since
Jan. / last. there has been steady in
crease in immigration from Europe to this
country.
In the nine months ending Sept 30, there
arrived at our ports 2l9S52 immigrants.
For the similar period in 1884, the number
was 19l .4S5. For September Of this year
the number was q. $50. and for September
Of last year. 2i.9OL II will be noticed that
there was very great increase in the ar
rivals this September over those Of last
September.
During the hard times the number of
immigrants decreased greatly. The in
crease therefore can only be interpreted
to mean that in the opinion Of home seek
ers Of Europe prosperity has returned to
this country.
There is no objection Of course TO a
good class Of immigrants, but it is a ques-
ton which congress ought to consider very
carefully whether We are not receiving al
together too many immigrants of a class
that is not at all desirable. Many immi-
grants are coming who do not intend to
become farmers. Their intention is to con-
gregate in cities and mining towns. If it
were not for them the labor market would
not be so overcrowded in the great cities,
and we should not have so many strikes
Of a violent kind in the coal and iron min
ing sections. Nearly all the mining trou-
bles are caused by foreigners.
The question of limiting immigration is
a difficult one to handle. It has both polit-
zeal and sentimental features. Still. there
are ways of keeping immigration within
reasonable bounds without wholly check
ing it.
Much Of the immigration is due to the
efforts Of steamship companies to get bus
mess. Their agents go through the differ
ent European countries urging the people
to turn their small belongings into cash
and seek new homes in the United States.
They present attractive pictures showing
the ease with which money can be made
in any part of this country. Their sole
purpose of course is to get the passage
money for their respective companies. Oft
en- the poor immigrants encounter great
er misery than which they leave.
The south has room for immigrants, but
the south wants only those who are desir-
able-those who are intelligent and thrifty.
She has little use for mere laborers, be-
cause she has labor now that is better
than any she is likely to get from Europe.

Senator Vest of Missouri is gradually
getting in line. At the town of Fayette
a few days ago he said during the course
of a speech that he would support the
democratic ticket in 1896, no matter what
the platform or who the candidate That
is good democratic talk But the cues
ton arises. why is the senator so anxious
to abolish the silver line in the Demo-
critic party now, when only a short while
ago he was so anxious to draw it tightly?
He was of the coterie who were so busy
in organizing a silver party within tia
Democratic party. Has he seen a light?

The New York Maritime Register says:
steamer lines from New orleans and
Galveston to Manchester. and from near
" all of our southern ports to different
ports of Europe. are starting or about to
start, and all of these will carry foreign
flags. When, all. when will they be re-
placed by steamers carrying the Ameri-
can fiagY" They will probably be so re-
placed when the obsolete navigation laws
which now cumber the statute books and
operate against American owners. are re
moved and sensible laws take their places.
When American owners are permitted
to purchase their ships in the open mar
kets of the world then the American flag
will take the place of the foreign flags
which now fly from the masts of the
ships in the American and foreign trade.

The Farmers Congress and silver.


We notice that some of the weekly pa
pers in this state are still in doubt as
to whether the Farmers National Con-
gress, recently in session in Atlanta,
adopted a resolution in favor of the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio Of IS to !. We are not at all sur
prised that they are confused. The At
lanta Constitution sent to the Southern
Associated the statement that the
farmers congress Endorsed free silver
coinage at the ratio of 16 to l and pub
lished in its own columns the same state
ment. The Constitution, however, was
mistaken. and the following day publish
ed the resolution which was passed-a
resolution which contains nothing what
ever about the ratio of 16 to 1.
We have no doubt that those of our
weekly contemporaries who were misled
by the Constitutions mistake are very
much put out about It, because they have
unwittingly misled their readers. Still,
they have the opportunity to make the
correction in their next issues. 1t IS
to be regretted that the Constitutions
correction was not a little more luminous.
A full and frank statement that the
farmers congress did not indorse the
16 to l idea, pointing out how the mistake
was made, would have assisted materially
in correcting the error.
As matter of fact, the farmers con-
gress was against the Is to ! idea. Its
proceedings show that very clearly. It
favored sound money that is, it wanted
every silver dollar coined to have the
same debt paying and purchasing power
as a gold dollar.
The refusal of the farmers congress
to adopt the 16 to idea shows how great
the progress of the sound money senti-
ment has been within the last few months
We have said quite frequently recently
that the free silver coinage craze was
dying out, and the action of the farmers
| congress confirms the statement.

President Hines and Director Wal
lace went to Duluth Tuesday in the
interests Of the new road, being called
there by invitation of leading citizens
of that metropolis. The daily Com
monwealth Of the 9th notices their
appearance in that city as follows:
D. w. Hines, of Drayton, Nd,
president of the Duluth & North Da-
kota road, and ]. d. Wallace, a direc-
tor are in town to find out what Du-
luth is going to do to help the enter
prise along. This time Mr.. Hines is
not wasting his time in vain efforts
trying to buy ticket to St. Paul, but
stays at the Spalding house. Today
he obtains the respectful attention of
the biggest men in Duluth without
trying very hard.
The work is progressing nicely and 40
OF the 110 miles west of Thief River
Falls is already graded. Only 1s inch
es of dirt had to be thrown up. 1t was
the original intention to stop at Thief
River Falls and let the Duluth & Win
nipeg build to connection there, but
the latter line is too slow for Hines, so
now he proposes to extend his line 11s
miles farther east to Deer River, the
present terminus of the Duluth Swim
nipeg.
This, he claims, is not such big
undertaking as many would suppose,
as for the first 60 miles out of Thief
River Falls the road is so good that
the biggest cut would not exceed six
feet.

If the reduction of the tariff under
the Wilson law has not been a
leading factor in this wage-advanc-
ing movement, why is it that the
advances have been confined in most
part to our protected industries?

East Via The Great Lakes.

The Northern Steamship Line is an
important link in the Great Northern
transcontinental system. It gives di-
rect connection between Duluth,
Superior, The 500, Mackinac Island,
Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo and the
East. practically extending the Great
Northern to within 400 miles of the
Atlantic seaboard. During the year
1895 there are two magnificent steel
built steamships in service, the North
Land having been added for duty this
year to run reverse trips with the
Northwest" There is nothing finer
in the way of accommodations to be
found on any other ships afoat. These
steamships make almost railroad time
in the delightful trips between Duluth
and Buffalo. 1t was thought when the
NORTHWEST started last year that the
traffic would come mainly from the
tourist classes, but owingto the steam
ships superior speed and splendid
facilities, the business men took ad-
vantage of it and patronized it to an
extensive and gratifying degree. Mer-

that in the trip of l 900 miles from Du-
luth to Buffalo there is but little varia-
