The commissioner general of
immigration, in his annual report
shows that during the last fiscal
year the arrival of immigrants in
this country aggregated 343,266, o
which SAC, 0,46S were landed and the
remainder debarred and deported
at the expense Of the various
steamship lines by which they
came. The statistics at hand, the
commissioner general states, "dO
not justify the conclusion that our
alien population is growing in un-
due proportions"

Russia is putting forth an effort
leading to an agreement between
the principal wheat producing
countries of the world, to fix a
price on wheat which will be uni
formily through various seasons Of
overproduction and unsatisfactory
crops, caused by drouth or con-
tinued rain, and thus make the
principal grain staple upon which
three millionsof consumers depend
for food, almost as Interchangeable
in value as gold itself has become.
This would enable the producer,
in the event of an unusually large
crop, to store his wheat and obtain
thereon a loan that would tide
him over until wheat was in de-
mand in the worlds market, when
he would get full and fair price
for it.-Ex.

HIS MEMORY Ar FAULT.


] heard very funny story OF the late
Judge Black and David W, Sellers, the
weil-known Pennsylvania railroad sollol-
tor the other day, relates contributor
OF the Harrisburg Telegraph
The Judge and Mr. Sellelswors engaged
on the same side as counsel, ma prom
inent case to be tried in Harrisburg, and
both met by appointment at the same
hotel, They consulted all the afternoon
and about four o'clock Mr.. Sellers re-
MARKED that no was very hungry and
uggested dinner.
The Judge said that was good sug-
;estion, but insisted on going to res
aurant for dinner, to which Mr.. Sellers
cnsented. Five o'clock arrived and
iollers grew impatient,
"Pm very hungry, Judge" said he;
lets get that dinner"
"All right Dave" was tho Judges
reply, "get mo my hat and come on. ~
The twain started out together, the
Judge having hold Of Mr., Sellers arm,
lalklng all along about tho case they
wero engaged on. Down Market street
they walked until they came to the
railroad.
II don't see any restaurant here, /" said
Mr., Sellers.
"Must be on the other side, Dave"
said the Judge. looking about him.
They crossed Market street and walked
upas fara as Third, halting on the Telegram
corner.
"well, Judge" said Mr.. Sellers,
"whero is taat restaurant I'm very
hungry"
II declsco didn't see IT, replied the
Judge; con, now l know where It is.
Up this way, and he led Mr., Sellers up
Third street.
They went on and on until they got
to Pine, When Mr.. Sellers again broke
forth:
Come, Judge, produce that restaur-
ant. I'm very hungry, and this delay is
positively amoying~
Hold On, Dave" said Judge Black,
"a SEQ I've made mistake, That res
taurant is down this way. Yes, now /
have 1t FOR certain. 1t Is down this
way"
And he led the half-famlshed Mr., Sell
lers, down Third street, past Market,
until their slow pace brought them 10
Chestnut street,
There's no restaurant here, . said Mr..
Sellers.
"Why, yes" said the Judge, looking
up at the Reformed Church, "this must
be it, but its shut up No, this is not It,
This Is church. Dave It's a church"
"Well, l see that for myself" was Mr.,
Sellers answer, and then he remarked:
Judge, I'm very hungry and this delay
Is positively aggravAting"
The Judge stood in the middle OF the
pavement twirling his tobacco box in an
absent-minded way. Suddenly he turned
on Mr. Sellers and bright light suffused
his broad countenance as he said:
"Why, Dave, I've made mistake.
That restaurant am hunting is in Bal
timore! Yes, its in Baltimore, Dave,
and not in Harrisburg On Eutawstreet,
in Baltimore, and here we've been hunt
ing 1t all the afternoon"
Mr.. Sellers was speechless. Hesaid.
Come on. Judge, let's 80 back to the
hotel and get cup OF tea"
And they went. =

TARIFF AJAX.

The 0regonian sometimes forgets
itself and lets the cat out Of the
bag. In its issue Of the 2Sth, it
has very sensible article on the
tariff. It admits that the tariff is
tax, and says that tits unwise to
raise too much revenue, for the
raising of it would be but "in.
creased taxation" 1t does-not now
intimate that "the foreigner pays
the tariff" 1t suggests that the
tariff should be arranged on scien-
tifc principles, as the people would
resent too marked favoritism to
trusts sc. The science" to be
used means that the people must
be scientifically" swindled, SO
that they will not know when
they are hurt. The article pleads
for a moderate and apparently
equitable tariff, but the animus of
the plea is not that the great
masses Of the people may be bene-
fitted, but that they may not know
that they have been taxed to
build up favored monopolies. This
is not the honest advice Of a great
newspaper, but is the plausible
plea Of an unscrupulous corpora
tion attornev-which is the true
status Of the Oregonian.

The Maine Republ!can.A financial plank
is good: 1--WE are opposed to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver except by
International agreement, and until such
agreement can be obtained we believe
that the present gold standard should be
maintained" That is solid and sound
and leaves the way open for agreement
with the great trading nations with
which we do business. The St Louis
convention would not so amlss II It
were to go the Maine way. on the
same day that the Republicans of Maine
spoke two distinguished Republican
senator's, Allison. OF Iowa, and Morrill,.
OF Vermont, expressed themselves 20 the
same effect in discussion In the senate.
Such declaration would not satisfy
the silver mine owners, but their de-
mands are so unreasonable that they
cannot be satisfied without disaster to
the country.

Governor Bradley. OF Kentucky, de-
clares himself out of the St Louis races.
The declaration is not premature.


The passage OF the bill to prohibit the
further issue OF government bonds with
out further authority Of Congress shows
that there are good many wild mon In
the senate OF the United States. and the
vote shows who the wild men are.
Bonds should be Issued by the treasury
only when there is no other way to pro-
tect the public credit, but to say, espec-
Tally under the existing circumstances,
that bonds shall not be issued In any
case without further authority from
Congress, Is to set trap In which the
government may be caugh: to its serious
disadvantage.
What would have happened II the
present administration had not Issued
bonds? The administration party had
cut Off the public revenues and ;here
was lack OF money TO pay the ordinary
running expenses OF the government.
Presiden, Cleveland made n mistake to
deny this, and hts denial has aroused a
great deal OF resentment. II the public
treasury had not been kept going there
would have been n very serious state OF
affairs in the country. how serious 1t IS
not necessary to try to Imagine. The
government, being abort Of ready mon
ey, had to borrow. That is what selling
bonds means.
II the house were to endorse the folly
Of the senate the treasury could not Dor
row money, as /, may soon be Obliged to
do, II Congress wer,. not inSessIon or II
before adjournment It had given the OK
ecutivc no additional authority to issue
bonds. The authority should remain as
1t is. and the party in power should be
held to a strict accountability when 1t
creates conditions which make It's exer-
else necessary.
The analysis Of the vote by which the
bond bill was passed Is interesting The
Popullsts, i've In number gave 1t their
voteg. So did seventeen free silver
Democrats and ten free silver Republi-
cans. This made total OF thirty-two
voting for ths bill Nine Democrats
voting against the measure. It was op-
posed by nearly twice as many Repnbli-
cans, sixteen.
1t was dstinctIvely the measure Of
the silver men and logically had much
more Democratic than Republican sup
port. The Populists proper and the
Democratic Assistant Populists put It
through. There can be no such effective
coalition in the house. The same WILL
ingneFs Is there. but the numbers nrc
lacking. Republicans control that body.
