PENNSYLVANIA ALIEN LABOR
LAW.

The Pennsylvania legislature has
passed and Governor Hastings has APP
proved bill which puts a tax upon
aliens who come into the state and
work. The tax is cents a day. If they
merely come into the state and do not
work, they are exempt from the tax.
The employers of alien labor are held
liable for the tax. thus insuring its pay
ment
This law is new departure in legis-
| lation, though it rs in line with the re-
striction of immigration laws CT the
general government. Its ostensibie pur-
pose is TO protect the native laborer
against the fierce competition of
aliens who come in and are willing to
work for very much lower wage than
the native workman will. The work
men of Pennsylvania have suffered
more in this respect than perhaps those
Of any other state. Huns and Poles and
Slavs generally have been imported
into the state by the immense manu-
featuring concerns, especially those en-
gagged in the iron industry in one form
or another. 1t is true that these men
have often been imported to take the
place of strikers, but not always by
any means.
What real good the Pennsylvania
lawmakers can expect to accomplish
by the enactment of law taxing aliens
it is difficult TO see. The amount of the
tax is not enough to deter employers
from hiring foreigners. nor to prevent
them taking employment. Where an
alien laborer viii work for a wage suf-
ficiently below that which a native
born laborer will work for. so that he
gets the work. the difference will be
so great that the amount of the tax
will cut no figure. When the history of
labor in Pennsylvania is considered,
this legislation at this late day looks
very much like a piece of demagogism
pure and simple. Nor is it quite
certain that the law will not conflict
with the treaty rights of aliens. 1t is
certain to be tested on this ground.

TRADE WITH JAPAN.


Mr. Massena Mazda, ex-vice-minister
Of agriculture of Japan, is in Washing
ton. The object of his visit there is to
advance, If possible the trade relations
between Japan and this country. He
says his countrylnen are very anxious
TO trade with us. and that we do not
appreciate the fact that they prefer to
trade with Americans TO any one else.
This IS all very good news and every
thing possible should be done TO en-
courage trade relations, which means
friendly relations. Every tradition of
both countries towards each other is in
favor of the friendliest Intercourse. and
nothing should be permitted to destroy
those traditions. It is said that Japan
VIII entertain very unfriendly if not
hostile feelings towards this country if
it annexes the Hawaiian islands. This
Is not necessarily the case. as it has
been distinctly and repeatedly declared
by eminent japanese in official position
that their country did not want Hawaii
and had no intention of annexing the
Islands. IF they are TO be annexed to
the United States, naturally Japan is
solicitous that her subjects who have
acquired commercial and other rights
in Hawaii shall be protected in them.
She could ask nothing less, and this
country would do nothing less than
this
This country does not get that pro-
portion of Japan's trade that it should
and would if it were properly cult
vated- England sends to Japan about
five times as much as The United States
do. This is not as it should be- Geo
graphically we are in a better position
TO command trade with the japanese
than the English are. This position and
the resources Of the country should
give Americans a predominant position
in the markets Of Japan, and they will
if they are taken advantage of as they
should be. In the future the surplus
products of this country of all kinds
must look to a foreign market, and if
foreign markets are not found, develop
ment along various lines will be very
materially arrested. In the past there
has been a very strong disposition to
treat the foreign market as a thing I'M
worthy OF heed, the people having be-
come very largely imbued with the idea
that the home market was all and
everything. They are beginning to out
grow that idea. The great manufactur-
ing nation must cultivate all markets.

that they would fulfill the promise but
would never sell their politics.
Wen, the people voted for repudia-
ton, in the eyes of the eastern capital
lists, and where are our projected rail-
roads today2 The Utah company is
disorganized and no capital is coming
to our state. Eastern bondholders are
afraid of US An evidence of this was
had the other day. The state land
board had some surplus money that ii
thought best 10 invest in Utar bonds.
An order was placed at Boston and at
once more Utah bonds were offered for
sale than the state could purchase.
But the people of Utah voted for
these conditions and we are not COM
planning. Prosperity will be a little
slow in coming to us; but it is coming.
Utah's resources will make US prosper
with the rest OF the country. and with
time the peoples credit will be re-
stored. Just now they must be patient.
The people Of Utah are not getting
what they voted for. They voted for
Mr. Bryan and free silver and they got
Major Mckinley and the gold stand
ard. But even those parts of the coun-
try which voted for Mckinley and
against free silver are not getting the
predicted prosperity. Why is it being
withheld from them? If Utah is get
ting no prosperity because of the way
her electoral vote was cast those states
which voted for Mckinley and the sin
gle gold standard should be getting
double portion of prosperity when the
fact is they are not receiving q single
portion How will our Provo contem-
porary explain this?
The intimation that the Boston hold
ers of Utah state bonds sold them
when the state land board made a bid
because they ARE afraid of us is ri
diculous They sold simply because
they knew where they could get bet
ter return on their money, just as hold
ers of government bonds do at times.
That state institutions are buying state
bonds is one of the best possible evil
dences of their desirability as well as
their safeness as an investment.
No one can successfully dispute the
Enquirer when it says prosperity will
be a little slow in coming to us We
must be patient seeing that we cannot
be prosperous.

WHAT THEY VOTED FOR.

The Provo Enquirer seemingly de-
lights in the fact that there is no gen
eral prosperity in the state. 1t says
the question is often asked: But why
do we not see prosperity in Utah %
Then it answers the question in these
words:
We answer that the people are getting
just what they voted for. and ought not
TO complain. The sheepmen voted for
prosperity, and got it; but the people
generally voted against the railway
projects and other enterprises that
were under way with eastern capital.

senator himself. he said, had received

GENERAL GoRDoN'S RE-ELEC-
TON.

The election of a commander OF the
United Confederate Veterans is not a
matter that ordinarily interests north
ern people, net because they do not
wish them well or that they harbor any
i'll feeling towards them, but chiefly be-
cause the election is a matter that
usually interests no one save the par
Elephants in it. But the reelection OF
General John B. Gordon as commander
is a matter Of congratulation TO the
whole country This is so because no
man in the south has done so much as
he to wipe out the bitter feelings of the
past and to create feeling of union
and brotherhood throughout the land.
He has done this very largely through
his lecture, The Last Days of the
Confederacy. He has mingled with
the people of the north and they have
come to know and love him, and they
have realized that he is the idol of the
ex-confederates and that whittier he
leads they will follow: that the feelings
of mis- heart are the feelings OF their
hearts; that his longings for peace and
union and brotherhood are the same as
their lodgings for them. Every one who
would draw the people of the north
and the south nearer together viii be
glad that the United Confederate veter-
ans have again chosen General Gordon
10 be their commander His election
makes fer peace and harmony and
good fellowship.
