A CHICAGO CONTROVERSY.
ATLANTA Constitution)

A very serious controversy has arisen
between Editor joseph MediI, Of the
Chicago Tribune, and Mr.. Kohlsaat, OF
The Times-Herald, IN regard to Madame
Anna Held, the notorious French wo-
man whose vulgarity was too stupid even
for the vitiated tash Of New York.
The funny thing about it is that Editor
Medill, who is neare. ninety than nine
teen, is inclined to regard the nasty per-
formances of the Frnch soubrette as a
source of enlightenment.
'After ALL" says Hditor MediH, with
a chirrup, ''if we can get a slight flavor
Of that gayety which is so much Of the
life Of Pairs, and Of which we know so
little in climates whRie existence is so
strenuous, we might we'll take the good
and let the bad 60"
Editor Kohssaat p'CperIy enoag Oh re-
Dukes this effort on he part of Editor
Medill to excuse indGency on the plea
that 1t viii give our Yong men favor
of the gayety that is $50 much of the
life of Paris" but even Editor Kohl
saat stops short Of seting one of the
immutable truths of lie, which is that
vulgarity, obscenity and indecency can
never, under any circumstances, produce
or promote gayety.

NORTH CARDINALS POPULATION
1t is Almost Exclusively Made up of
Natives.
lNew York SUM


North Carolina is one of the oldest
States in respect to settlement, having
been first colonized in 1887 1t is one Of
the thirteen original States, and by
reason of its extensive sea coast and
good ports has always been easily ac-
cessible to immigrants. Yet in. the whole
United States there is not one of the
forty-five which has Il smaller foreign
bonr population than North Carolina.
and this peculiar distinction has remained
for a good deal more than a century. BY
the Federal census of 1890 there were
| 100000 native-born inhabitants of
North Carolina and only 300 born out
of the State. North Cardinals percent
age, in fact, is so much lower than that
Of all the other States that it appears
almost insignificant North Dakota, at
the top Of the list, has so per cent for
eign-born population, Minnesota So, Wis
consin "A, Rhode Island "a, New York
30 Connecticut 81, New Jersey 20,
Illinois, %, New Hampshire %, Ohio IA,
Maryland 10, Indiana, z, and Louisiana
4. North Cardinals percentage is one
fifth of / per cent, and it has at no time
been much higher.
This fact being undisputed, the ques-
ton naturally arises, what is the cause?
Some say that it is due to the fact that
North Carolina is a State principally
without cities, and that as the foreign
born population Of every State will be
found chiefly in the large cities the case
is easily explained; but such an explana-
ton, unfortunately, does not cover the
case. North Carolina has one city, Will
mington, with a population in excess Of
10000, and Raleigh, Charlotte and Ashe-
n ,qs,4s
each. Moreover, it is not always large
cities that count in the United States
for foreign-born population. The State
Of Iowa for instance, with only one
city in excess of. $4,000 inhabitants, con-
tains 20 per cent of foreign-bonr pOpu-
lation. North Dakota, too, which was
at the head Of the list of States in re-
spect to foreign-born population by the
last census, did not at that time have a
city with a population as large as Ashe-
vile, N. G.
Some other explanation must, there
fore, be found, and perhaps the most
plausible is the fact that Virginia being
the arena Of the hardest fighting between
the hostile armies during the civil war,
the tide of immigration which followed
strongly while it lasted was diverted
from North Carolina, which lies imme-
diately south of Virginia, and thus prac-
tically the State was cut off from this
supply. Before the war, Of course, when
slave labor ruled the industrial market
there was no large foreign immigration
into any of the Southern States, with
the exception of Louisiana and Texas
Oddly enough, while there are only 300
foreign-bOrn inhabitants returned by the
last Federal census, there were 1,514 In
dams, and it seems a strange State of af-
fairs that in any American common
wealth on the Atlantic border the pro-
portion of Indians to foreign-born citizens
should be so high.

4 WARNING AGAINST ILLIBER.
Atty.

''Not long ago." says a Philadelphia
clergyman, Il made an earnest appeal
during a Sunday morning service for con-
tributions to support a certain branch of
the church work. The ushers distributed
blank subscription cards, which were to
be filled out with promises to pay speci-
fed sums within a year, and returned.
One Of our leading members filled out his
card for So, but by the time the ushers
collected the blanks he had changed his
mind and decided not to give anything.
He held the paper in his hand until the
church service was over, and upon leav-
ing the church, tore it up in little pieces
and threw it in the street. Providence
had an eye on that man, and so did po-
liceman who stood on the corner. The
latter arrested the erring brother for
throwing the paper in the street, took him
to the police station, and had him locked
up. The next morning he was fined $3.50
for violating a city ordinance.

marshall, Va, Cor Washington Starr
Two Of the most noted expounders Of
the gospel in Northern Virginia were
the Revs. Roszell, of the Methodist
church and Gilmore of the Baptist. On
one occasion they both had appoint
ments in Leesburg on the same Sunday.
Returning to their home after church
the two congregations met on opposite
sides Of the same street.
The Methodist divine, thinking to de-
liver a smarting thrust in the hearing Of
almost the whole of both flocks, called
across the street to the shepherd of the
Baptist fold:
How dye do, Brother Gilmore; one
of your members joined our church to-
day"
"Ah, ha, that's all right, replied the
placid immersionist. 'back-sliding Bap-
lists make very good Methodists."
One communion day in the Baptist
church the Rev. Roszell made it a point
to be present, having no service at his
own church on that day. Mr.. Gilmore
spread the communion table with great
care just in front Of where the Methodist
divine was sitting, and when all was
ready he, with great solemnity, said in
his powerful and impressive voice:
Brother RoszelI, if this were my table
| should invite you to partake but being
my Fathers, / dare notr
Instead of sinking through the floor,
Mr.. Roszell calmly replied:
Brother Gilmore, if this were your
table / should await your invitation; but

reached over and with great seriousness
and solemnity, took the bread and wine
without molestatiOn, to the intense

THE PLA TFORM OF THE STAT
DEMOCRACY.

The Democrats of Rhode Island need
not go back TO THOMAS JEFFERSON to
release them from any sentimental or
partizan alleg to the position taken
by their state central committee. They
may refer only few weeks back 20 the
declaration OF their convention that NOM
mated HoRATIUs JACK CoNLEY and
other delegates to Chicago which runs as
follows:
"It is vital to the interests OF the
people that there should be no departure
from the gold standard to which all
money, whether gold, silver or paper,
should conform, and we are opposed to
the free coiuege of silver until at least
four OF the great powers Of tho world
shall come to an international agree
mcnt establishing the ratio at which
gold and silver shall be admitted to
mintage."
The Democratic State central COM
mhteo has rcpudiated this declaration,
but there ia evidence to justify the belief
that large part OF the Democracy will
stand In November next whore they
stood ON April 2i last, by unanim Gus
vote of their representatives in conven-
tion assembled and repudiate the State
central committee.
