AN EDUCATIONAL TEST.

There is strong and growing
sentiment in this country in favor
of such effective restrictions upon
immigration and naturalization as
will adequately provide against
the perils of foreign illiteracy. de-
pravity and poverty, which, in re-
cent years, too commonly charac-
terize the flood of desperate and
downtrodden humanity setting in
toward our shores from Europe
and the east. 1t is true that
something has been attempted in
this direction. But the crust OF
the evil has been barely penetrat-
ed; the core of the mischief re-
mains untouched.
1t is suggested that the simplest
test would be a reasonable re-
quirement of intelligence Oh the
part of newcomers seeking the
privilege Of residence and citizen

THE SEA COAST ECHO.
COMMENSURATE CHARITY

! COMMENSURATE CHARITY.
TO collect dolls for the poor girl
children Of New Orleans to be given
to them on Christmas day is what
the Times Democrat has undertaken
to do, and il is the tenderest bit of
charity which has yet come under
our observation,
Garments do not and cannot fash
ion the inner feelings. When the
sweet and tender Christmas lights
are aglow the youthful heart beneath
the despised rags thrills with as
much anticipation of joy as that
beneath the costhest silks and satins.
A doll is small gift--the cost of
Two or three cigars or box of bon
bons, and when Is considered the in
finite joy that 1t will bring into the
life of the receiver, which seldom, if
ever, knows aught Of gladness, none
but the stone-hearted will refrain
from increasing the sum of human
happiness by making such an mex
peDsiye contribution.
The attention of the Times-Demo-
crat to the poor little girls Of its city
rs unreseryedIy noble. 1t makes us
feel that the world is not quite as
selfish or oblviods of the unfortunate
as is so often pictured.
The people Of New Orleans have
on various occasions shown an un-
equalled liberality. The demand
now made on them is slight, and if
they respond as cheerfully as they
have done in the past the result will
be accepted with thanks and bless
ings, and Christmas will become
fraught with grand, sweet lesson.

OTR SOUTHLAND.

The scintillant rays Of our south
ern sun will not be repulsed by the
bleak winds of the north.
Accounts relate how the lands of
the north and northwest are covered
with snow and how the icy winds and
altogether terrible weather render
farm operations and commercial in
tercourse practically impossible.
Those unfortunate regions are in
habitated by intelligent people and
it is almost incredible that they go on
year after year enduring hardships
that could be easily said farewell to
by coming to the blessed land that
waits for them.
For those weather-ridden people
to ignore our radiant southland is as
old age ignoring an opportunity TO
become youthful again, captive re-
fusing to accept his liberty
But the day must come when they
will realize that they are combating
against odds, that ray of sun and a
drop CT rain will be more beneficial
to crops than blizzards and SHOWS.
The south and particularly this far
southern portion of it is destined TO
soon be the wealth producing section
of this country.

chilly collected.
Making the ballot Of Mississippi
attainable only by educational quail
fication is unquestionably the most
commendable legislation ever attain
ed by our legislature, and to have
declared it null and void for the mere
revenue (which we would then
derive would have been insanity of
the most pronounced sort.
Purity of the ballot as it exists in
this state is vir.ue sought by other
states, and while we glory in the de-
cision Of the court, we cannot on
the other hand but feel regret that
it's advisability should have been
questioned by intelligent people.
But the question has been settled
and settled properly. Any other de-
cision would have brought disgrace
upon the fair name of our state
which no revenue could justify or
obliLerate.

QUEER JUDGES,


In the Waldorf short time
ago a gentleman dropped on the
floor a pocketbook containing
nine hundred dollars. 1t was
found by walters who kept the
money. They were arrested and
and the property, 43sngefed 70 the
loser. Subsequently it was re-
presented that without the mon
ey no case could be made against
the men, and the owner handed
it over to the authorities. In
court the prisoners pleaded guilty
and were committed. The mor :
ey was then asked by the owner
and refused by the magistrate,
Justice Mott-Injustice Mott,
father-on the ground that al
though the facts were clearly
proven and the prisoners had
pleaded guilty, yet they might be
innocent, in which case the money
belonged to them. A man such
as that is disgrace to the bench.
There are others. A fort
night-ago Edith Bahr came up for
sentence before Justice McCor-
mick in the Union county court,

driving them, could thGM-oaIt..
Bloy shut the gate and threaten
ed to send them to the pound.
The boy called to his sister for
aid, whereupon, according to the
reports, Bloy tried to eject her.
But she was one too many for him;
she bowled him over, got the COWS
and drove them home. Bloy had
her arrested for assault. Justice
Mccormick sentenced her to
three months imprisonment. He
ought to get six for it himself.
A fine would have been prepos-
ferrous, but imprisonment was
brutal. We don't want any more
brutes on the bench. We have
jackasses enough. Edgar Saltus,

HAY IN THE SOUTH.

A correspondent of the Home
and Farm says the greatest mis-
take ever made is III thinking the
south is not a grass growing coun-
try. which is true. There is no
country where grass Of all species
and kinds grows diore luxuriantly,
if given a chance, than in the
south, and, somehow or other,
here of late years, the farmers of
the south seem to have come to
the conclusion that there is mon
ey in grass as well as cotton, and
thousands of them not only make
enough to supply their own farms
but a surplus to sell to their
city cousins.
The time was, and only few
years ago, when the Mississippi
farmer who owned moving
machine and raked and cut and
stacked hay for himself and neigh
bors. was looked upon as real
curiosity, and such a thing as a
hay press was a circus in any COM
munity.
As short a while ago as ten OF
twenty years nearly every freight
train that came from the north OF
west was loaded down with hay
and corn for jackson and other
southern towns, and the hay found
ready sale at SIS or $40 per ton,
while the corn was legal tender al
81 a bushel, Such train-loads OF
farm produce may still be shipped
out of Illinois er Missouri, but
they don't "slow up" much at the
Jackson depot, the farmers OF
this section having learned that
they can raise just as good as they
can buy, and at one-fourth the
cost. The Wholesale merchant in
this section who would order Q
carload of hay from St. Louis
these days would be looked upor
US a lunatic, and the home hay,
raisers who are legion, would al

republic. Such rule, to be eff
cacious, must be uniform in its
application and impartial in its
/ operation. In view of the aver
age character of those immigrat-
ing to this country, this test would
not be harsh, and exclusions un-
der it. could not be regarded as
unjust. 1t is certain that large
majority of even the naturaIized
foreign element of ourpopulation
would Join the great body of our
native citizens in supporting such
a system of regulation.
While ii has never been shown
that illitoracy and crime necess-
arily go hand in hand, yet it re-
quires no figures to convince q
man of sound understanding that
an increase in the percentage of
eduacation will inevitably mean
a decrease in crime. A decrease
in crime may not mean an in
crease in virtue. But it has been
universally demonstrated that ed
ucation throws safeguards around
the individual and the state. Ed
ucation not only induces higher
estimate of the obligations Of the
individual to society, but also
produces a keener appreciation
of the perils of wrong doing.
A uniform educational test
would debar immigrants who arc
too ignorant to be anything but q
burden to the country, and it will
cut down, if not entirely elimin-
ate, that immense element of dam
gerous and wholly undesirable
immigration which now consti-
tutes the bulk of the steerage
lists. 1t is certainly high time
that we should call halt to those
European nations which are
dumping the refuse population
upon our land.
1t is believed that the incoming
administration will exert itself in
the right direction on this impor-
tant and vital subject. The TIA ttbBs
fifth congress shosld act prompt
and vigorously in this matter
along practical lines of legisla-
ton. An educational test will

alarming situation, and that

THE BEGINNING OF RETALIATION.

IllE BE0lNRiNd VI hE hElAIlAllONs
President Cleveland has issued a
proclamation suspendlng, after Jan,
/ 1.-The act which relieves German
vessels entering United States por
from the obligation to pay tonnage
dues. The ostensible cause for this
action is the fact that American YES
sells are compelled to pay such dues
in German ports. There is no doubt,
however, but that the real motive for
this proclamation was TO retaIiate up
on Germany for the harsh treatment
American commerce has met with at
the hands of the German govern
ment.
For years past American meats
and other products have been dis
criminated against by Germany, and,
under the pretext Of preventing the
introduction Of disease, American
hog products are practically prohibi-
ted altogether from entering that
country. The government at WASH
ington has been for long time IRA
tated at the uncomprosingly hostile
attitude Of the German authorities
towards American trade interests,
but has hesitated to adopt retaliatory
measures, hoping that, after time,
they might be induced TO see the in
justice of their course. Evidently,
in President Cleveland's opinion, the
limit OF patience has been passed,
and the time has arrived for the in
auguration of a policy Of retaliation.
Encouraged by the course of Ger.
many, France, and even Austria,
have not hesitated to discriminate
against American commerce, the lat
est act of Austria being the increase
of the tax upon glucose for ,heNex-
press purpose Of excluding the AmeS
ican product feom competition with
Austrian glucose.
President Cleveland's decision TO
retaliate will be applaudcd by all
classes of the people, as there is a
keen sense of resentment felt at the
treatment to which our trade has
been subjected abroad.
A very proper and egective continu
alton of the retaliatory policy would
be an increase upon the duties charg-
ed upon sugar exported by the
bounty-paying countries, particularly
Germany, France and Austria. Such
increase duties would not only pun
ish those powers for their discrimna-
tions against American trade, but
would also serve to protect the Am
erican sugar industry from the bane-
full effects of the export bounties
paid by the beet-sugar producing
countries, as such bounties enable
the countries IN question to ship their
sugars 70 this country to the disad-
vantage of American sugar interests.
What course Germany will adopt
in view of President Cleveland's pre-
clamalon it is difIiult to say, AL,
though the retaliation is just, it is
scarcely to be expected that the GeI-
mans will take that view of the mat
ter; hence 1t is possible that war Of
ariff will be inaugurated, which i
will be difficult to prevent from lead
ing to acrimonious disputes that may
require diplomacy Of high order tc
settle. AT any rate il IS eviden
that President Cleveland is determir
ed that Ame .ican trade interests shall
be better respected 10 Europe, nc

stahhing ARRAY at Tower CITY.

A stabbing ARRAY occurred at Tower City
yesterday, resulting from a quarrel between
Adam Strohecker and William Hand. The
former is a son of Landlord Strohecker, and
the latter is a married man with a wife and
three small children. During the quarrel
Hand drew a pocket knife and made two
thrusts at Strohccker. Both took effect and
Strohecker dropped to the floor with an ugly
cash in his abdomen and another in his
breast. Landlord Strohecker and his
daughter ran to Adams assistance when the
knife was drawn and both were severely
wounded by Hand, who stabbed them right
after he had struck the young man. Hand
made his escape and has not been captured.
