Rising Tide of immigration.

In 1894, there was a rush OF alien labor
ers from this country TO Europe, and the
immigration from Europe for that year
fell 10 about half what it was the year be-
fore. The figures of immigration for 1885,
showed a still further reduction in the
number of incomers. That year. how
ever. witnessed the low water mark, and
the tide is now rising rapidly, and may
reasonably be expected to reach high wa
ter mark within a short while unless con-
gress does something to check It. The
report of the bureau of immigration
shows that the total of immigration for
the year 1896 will be SO 1-9 per cent larger
than the total for 1895.
The majority of immigrants so far this
year come from Austria-Hungary, italy
Poland and Russia. Thirty years ago
these countCies furnished only about one
per cent. of the immigrants. OF the i'm
migrants from the countries named, 30 per
cent. cannot read or write their own Ian
guage or any other and only about one in
twenty-nine is a skilled laborer. One-third
Of their number have no occupation what
ever, and about two-ffths gave their oc-
cupaton as farm laborers, farmers. lab
orers or servants. According to the CEN
sus of 1890, nearly one-half Of the white
convicts in the United States, one-third
of the white insane, and one-half of the
white paupers are of foreign birth or par
entage. The connection between the class
Of immigrants under consideration, and
the inmates of the prisons, asylums and
poor houses. is too obvious to need to be
commented upon.
We have a law designed to restrict the
influx of undesirable immigration, to be
sure. But 1t does not do a great deal of
restricting. The records show that of 3d.
267 immigrants arriving this year. only
S,O37 were debarred under the restriction
law and deported at the expense of the
steamship companies bringing them over
That number is less than one per cent. of
the total immigration. The character of
the immigrants from Southern Europe has
not become better. They are the same
illiterate, dirty. wage-destroying, stiletto-
toting "dagoes" that they used to be. The
fact is, the law is too lax.
Supt. Stump has recently returned from
a visit to Italy, where he went for the pur-
pose of securing the cooperation of the
Italian government with ours to the
end Of restricting immigration of the unde-
srable class from Italy. The Italian Off
Gals promised that something should be
done in the line suggested by Commission
er Stump. II Uncle Sam believes that
Humbert will take care to keep all of his
undesirable and Improbable subjects at
home when he might as well let them go,
and thus get rid of them, then he need not
bother himself about restricting immi-
grafton. But Uncle Sam is too hard-head-
ed to believe any such thing.

Some Fun in Prospect.

Senator Tillman, running his hands
through his black hair, and with his
hands in his hip pockets, stalks up and
down the Senate chamber, squirting his
weather eye over towards the seat occu-
pied by Senator Hill, says the Washington
Post. His pitchfolk has been unsheathed
and its blades are rampant. He grasps
the handle with a farmers clutch, and
mutters awful things as he lays in wait
for the enemy to approach.
The Senate waits for the mud to fly. In
times long since the uncouth and rough
shod Tillman had a tilt with the foxy and
evasive HILL wherein the latter would
have been doughtily dealt with had he not
cried mercy" He delivered sage advice
unto Tillman, counselling the latter to re-
main in the democratic party, no matter
what the Chicago convention might say
or do.
"And wilt thou?'' snapped the noisy Till
man.
II wilt" said Hill, holding his hand
on high and crossing his heart.
Up went the standard of silver with
Bryan's Roman countenance inscribed
upon it. Tillman, joyous and victorious
in convention. went forth to battle, but
Achilles Hill sull1ed in his tent at Wool
fert's Roost Across his brow is the
mark of desertion. Tillman, some of
these days, will launch ridicule and taunt
at Hill, and then the Senate will have
a scene which it will be worth coming miles
to see.

All hanks cola Mine..

In many parts OF the country there is a
pretty strong feeling Of hostility to ma
uonal banks, due in great measure, 10
the belief that they nave very many
special privileges and are great money
making institutions. Facts have cropped
out during the last few weeks. however,
which show that this belief is not correct.
These banks have some special privileges,
but all of them DO not make money, and
only q few of them make more than a fair
interest on the money invested in them.
The few that have accumulated large sur
piuses and pay big dividends have been es-
pecia.ly favored in the matter of deposits.
They have made money on their deposits
rather than on their capital
While it is true that the national bank
failures of the last two or three weeks
have been caused by bad banking or the
dishonesty Of bank officials few national
banks have closed their doors voluntarily
because they were not making any money
and considered it advisable 10 liquidate
while they could do so without causing a
loss to their depositors and stockholders.
The fact that they are going out of bus
mess because they find banking unproht-
abe should have the effect Of modifying
the hostility of the public against national
banks in those sections of the country in
which they are not popular
a few days ago we called attention to
the statement that the stock of twenty-five
national banks of Boston is below par, and
that the condition of some of the other ma
tional banks is not as healthy as the stock
holders would like to have it, Here is adj
ditonal evidence that national banks, not
wlthstanding their special privileges, are
not gathering within their vaults all the
wealth Of the country We are not pre-
pared to say what percentage of the ma
tional banks IS making more than a fair
profit, but it is doubtful if it is large. When
one bank after another goes out of bust
ness and the shares Of many others are
below par it is pretty safe to conclude
that the business of national banking is
not making rich those who invest their
money in national banks.

One of the valuable relics entrusted to
the care of the grand master Of Massa-
chusetts Masons is the Washington
urn"-a small golden urn containing a
lock of Gen. Washington's hair. Mrs.
Washington presented the lock to the
grand lodge in 1890, and Grand Master
Paul Revere made the urn.

how to make coffee Coffee has never
been a strong point with the Berliners,
and it seems that the imperial coffee is no
better than the rest. His majesty grew
weary of complaining to officers of the
household and one morning actually went
below stairs to investigate matters for
himself. After the shock of the imperial
presence had subsidized William II demon
strated there was at least one thing he
knew all about, and that was coffee.

1t was Roberts, work.

A good story is going the rounds con-
corning President George B. Roberts,
of the Pennsylvania railroad, in
connection with his last inspection
tour over the lines of the company,
says the Philadelphia Record. The inspec-
ton party was riding over one of the
branch lines of one of the numerous divis-
ions of the big system, accompanied by
the superintendent of the division. The
branch happened to be an exceptionally
crooked one. and as the superintendent
was chatting with President Roberts the
car made sudden lurch going around
one of the sharp curves, which led the
superintendent to remark to his chief
that 1.-The engineer who built this branch
knew d-n little about engineering
With merry twinkle in his eye the pres
dent replied: Eyes. that is so; but l was
very young when 1 located the road, and
1 know better now" The superintend-
ent was completely discounted by this
reply, not having been aware that the
then president of the Pennsylvania rail-
road had when quite a young man located
and done the engineering work thereon.
President Roberts, on the other hand
took this somewhat severe citicism on
his early work as a good joke.
