THE IMMIGRATION LEAGUE.

C ENATOR LODGES immigration restriction
 bill has safely passed the Senate but according - to number of Eastern exchanges it will meet with strong opposition in the House power ul combination IS working defeat it, and is prob able long fight well hard one may be re- qulred to overcome an opposition forcefu and so determined
 The strength of the opposition, far is made public, to be centered in an association known as the Immigration Protection League" which has its headquarters in New York. Bourke Cochran is president of the league and the membership contains many persons hardly less eminent in politics and so- clety This league proposes at early day to hold mass meeting to protest against the Lodge bill in the hope that the protest will be effective in restrain ing action in the House.
 The league is not made up wholly of naturalized foreigners, the fact that Bourke Cochran is pres- dent of 1t might lead one to suppose On the con trary, 1t contains many native born Americans whose view of the proposed restriction may be inferred from recent letter of William Lloyd Garrison denouncing what he called "the nhuman, un-American policy of excluding emigrants."
 There is nothing in the Lodge bill to justify ex- citenent the part of the league or the screaming indignation of MT. Garrison. The measure is cer- tainly neither inhuman un-American On the con rary 1t IS Tn the interests of humanity and the well fare Of Americans The object is not to exclude inn migrants as such, but persons who unted to as> simulate with American society or appreciate the ad- vantages of our political system
 It appears that the leaders of the league are mis- representing the scope of the bill in order to cause prejudice against 1t and to antagonism to 1t As matter of fact the bill will hardly exclude any immigrant from Northern Western Europe It has been frequently pointed by the friends of the proposed measure that immigrants from Switzerland Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Germany, France, Great Britain Ireland and Finland have an average Hitter acy of only AZ to every Ioo Very few people of these countries therefore will be excluded
 Back of the Immigration Protection League stand the managers of foreign steamship companies and considerable number of mine owners who wish to procure cheap labor for their mines There is busi- ness as well sentiment in the opposition and the one IS about as bad as the other. MT. Garrison would have done well to consider the company he is in and the stake the American workingman has in the issue before he ndulged the horid rhetoric of denouncng the restriction policy "inhuman and American

THE WATER FRONT MARKET.

A CCORDING to statements made at meeting / \ of the Board of Harbor Commissioners on Tuesday by members of the Farmers Club the opposition to the establishment of free public mar ket upon the water front proceeds from the commis sion merchants and the river transportation compa nies whose revenues will be impaired by the enter prise The commission merchants do not want to be regulated" by the Harbor Commissioners, and the river transportation companies engaged in conveying produce to this city disposed to any inter ference with their business.
 From the standpoint of these interests there is of course, nothing improper in the positions they have taken But 1t IS not readily perceivable what differ ence 1t should make to the Harbor Commissioners whether the produce merchants and river transporta ton companies oppose the free market or not The act of March 20, 1897, which authorizes the board to establish the market, says nothing about either of those interests. It merely orders the commission peremptory to set apart sufficient number of piers to accommodate all the producers of perishable food products in the State and to connect them with the belt line railroad The act says "shall" not may" It is therefore mandatory, not permissive
 Moreover, it will be difficult for any person whose mental vision not obscured by prejudces to under stand why the interests of the commission merchants and river transportation companies should be allowed to block an enterprise which has been conceived for the benefit ot every man, woman and child in San Francisco. There are not over 500 men engaged in handling perishable products in this city, and not more than three or four river transportation compa- nies On the other hand there are upward of 100000 men, and children interested in the free market.
 Cheap food IS the great necessity of the modern world Schemes for producing and distributing it are the problems of civilization No people can be pros porous and happy unless they have sufficient to eat and the cheaper food products become the easier it is for everybody to attain the chief end of existence which is physical comfort The free market author ized by the late Legislature is distinct advance in civilization: By bringing producers and consumers together that market will eliminate to large extent the services of the mddemen thereby cheapening the food supply of the city. This may be hard on the merchants now engaged in handling produce But the introduction of railroads was hard on teamsters and hackmen, and the invention of street cars was exceedingly distasteful to the owners of omnbuses and other conveyances.
 If the produce dealers cannot turn the free market to account they will simply be compelled to accept the inevitable and charge their destruction over to the irnmutable laws of progress The Harbor Commis- soners have no discretion in the matter They "must establish free market It is vain for the opposing interests to await the assembling of the Legislature That body will never repeal the law
