1t is stated as an important fact that in

A new law in Pennsylvania imposes a
tax of cents a day on every alien laborer
in the State. An alien may remain in the
State without working and not be subject
TO the special tax or he may escape it by
becoming naturaiized, but if he wants to
work he must become an American citizen

Doubtless many people were surprised
when it was first stated that Japan would
protest against the annexation of Hawaii
by the United States. Japan? Only a few
years ago, all it asked was to, be let alone
and now it objects to having the United
States annex the islands, which have been
more American than anything else for sew
enty years. The explanation is that the
Japan of to-day is not the Japan of years
ago. 1t has been quickened by contact
with modern nations; its rulers are amb:-
tious to make it one of the powers In the
worlds industry and commerce.; it has
whipped China, and doubtless imagines that
its prestige as a fighter is greater than it
is. It's rulers have taken it out of the
effete nations of silver monometallism and
they have a vision of the part it will play
in the worlds commerce. Consequently its
rulers do not wish another nation to own
such outposts in the Pacific as Hawaii

The County Board of Review appraised
the plant of the Citizens Street-railroad
company at $1,90O,000. That is supposed to
be it's cash value, and yet it is capitalized
for 100000. The citizens of Indianapolis
are willing to pay a fare which will make
the actual investment a good property, but
they do not propose to surrender their
streets to a company which will not pay
any share of the, cost for paving and pay a
fare sufficiently large to yield a return upon
the six seven millions of vapor with
which its capitalization is inflated. To put
into the assets of a street-railway corpora
ton figures representing more than the ac-
tual cost of the plant is conspiracy to rob
the people. Consequently, provision should
be made by the Constitution or the law for
limiting the issue of stock and bonds to the
actual cost of the lines. The penalty for
violation of such provision should be for
fixture of the property to the city The
fact that the cash value of the plant of the
Citizens Street-railroad Company is but
81 300, 900, as reported by it's officers, is an
unanswerable argument in favor of a Scent
fare.
