IMMIGRANrs FROM IRELAND.
rs. Als or Them Inst Year. Most of whom
stayed In the East.

otAIou ~ u ~
The burning of the landing depot on Ellis Island
in which were stored valuable records makes 1t
impossible for the Irish Emigrant Society to
give a detailed report of all of its work, but some
statistics of general interest are published In
the Presidents report which has just been
issued. He says that during the year 1897
1S,4l7 immigrants from Ireland were landed
in this city. of whom 7.43O were males and
1O,9s7 were females. The total number Of
steerage passengers landed in New York last
year was 1872, 0O4. More than a quarter of a
million dollars was brought into this port by
Irish immigrants, and the records show that less
than 5 per cent. of them were able TO read
and write. There is now pending in Congress a
bill which seeks to restrain immigration by
subjecting every immigrant to an educational
examination as a prerequisite to his admission.
The President Of the Irish Emigrant Society
says that II such an educational test had been APP
piled TO immigrants from Ireland last year 1t
worthy persons, and in many Instances 1t would
have debarred immigrants of the class best
adapted TO develop our country. Apparently the
West has very little attraction for Irish imlni-
grants. OF those who arrived last year. 1888
stayed in New York State, ! 300 went to Penn
sylvania, 1897. went to Massachusetts. l.4l9
went to New Jersey, and Connecticut received
LII. Illinois was the only Western State which
received any considerable number, BAL going
there, and the others were pretty evenly divided
between all Of the other States in the Union.

the home of her daughter, Mrs. +. r.
Preston, 1910 Pierce street, Sioux City,
Iowa. Interment at Austin, Mimi,
Sunday, October 30" The deceased
was one OF the early settlers in this
city and for several years was among
the first to assist in establishing
church, Sunday school and temper
ance societies in our midst. The
young people of those days will readily
recall the many pleasant times had at
her home where all denominations
were won't to meet and enjoy her hos
pitality. Mrs. Jones was one of the
most enthusiastic members Of the
First Baptist church society at the
time of its organization, and the sue
cess of that church in an early day
was largely due to her efforts in its
behalf. She was always ready to as
sist in time of sickness and affliction,
as we can personally testify. For sew
eral years Mrs. Jones has divided her
time visiting with daughter at
Austin, Mimi, and another at Sioux
City, Iowa, where she had won many
friends, as she did here. We but
voice the sentiments Of many in ex-
pressing our deep sympathy for the
bereaved ones.

.WHAT WILL THEY Do7

II MESS: Deacon Fitch's Non -Partsans desire to + forfeit the respect of every voter who i'll past O years has supported their principles and candi- dates they will take immediate measures to investl gate and act upon the charge that Mayor Phelan has offered the Harney faction portion o his patronage in return for their votes. The Non nPartisans have indorsed substantially the entire Phelan ticket II the bargain referred to had been concluded the Mayor would have sold the Deacons party bodily to Raney and the politicians under his command. The at tempted trade therefore, an attempt to sell the Non-Partisasas to the bosses
 It is true that Phean's offer not accepted and that the fight between the Democratic factions will go on as before; but the interest of Deacon Fitchs -Partisans in the matter IS the less vital for that The Deacon is reformer. He fights bosses and corruptionists wherever lie finds them. He is a Republican; but that fact does not deter him Tn his pursuit of rascals n his party He has united his fortunes with Phean because he says he believes the Mayor is out for pure politics and an honest admin istraton of the law. How Phelan managed to convince the Deacon that he IS politically honest may continue to be mystery but for present purposes we are assuming that the Non-Partisan boss would have combined with him unless he had reason to believe that Fitch government would follow
 The attempt of Phelan purchase the votes of the Harney faction of the Democracy must knock the
 
 move worthy the most corrupt political boss who ever existed The Mayor acknowledged his boss ship when he assumed that he could keep his part of the agreement, and he proclaimed the purity" of his sentiments when he proposed to sell good govern ment for votes If the Harney factionists fit to hold office under Phelan they fit participate in primaries and sit in conventions with his dummies.
 We have been telling Deacon Fitch all along that the Phelan candidates have promised their patronage to the Organization" formed by the netting boss. We have warned him that in delivering the votes of the Republicans who have in the past followed his leadership to Phelan's ticket he was committing an offense against fair and decent politics which would cause Croker or Buckley to hesitate. Yet he has persisted in his mad desire to assist Phelan to place and power
 Now that the whole plar of the Phelan-McNab con spracy for capturing the offices has been exposed it is pertinent to inquire what are Deacon Fitchs Non Partisans going to do? Do they approve of the Mayors offer to Harney? Are they willing that one third of the patronage of the city shall be given the "scoundres' and "rascals" who for many months

PHELaN's THEORY OF WAGES,

kA AYOR :PHELAN has never made a formal announcement Of his ideas: concerning the re-, lation of wages to work, but he has on several occasions made statements on specific cases which show that in his judgment the average wage-earner in San Francisco is oyerpaid. H. has stated that the city lap ghters and the City Hall jantors should be paid less than they now receive. *::
 These two instances show how the Mayor would
 tighten the burdens of corporations and the expenses of the city He would make reduction in the wages of the gas conlpanys lanp1ghters and in the wages of the men who are charged with the duty of taking care of the City Hall It matters little to him that the lamplighters and the janitors eyen at present wages hardly earn enough to support their families; that their earnings for year will hardly equal his expenses for week It is enough for him that lie be 1ieves he could get men do the work for less pay
 Of course Mayor Phelan has not made such state 1nents during the campaign He IS now bidding for the votes of the worngrnen and talks oftly of good wages just as he talks to independent Republicans of his virtuous opposition to Rainey. While he was dealing with the city lighting problem, however, and with the expenses of maintaining the City ail and while the election was yet long way of, he was frank and open in his declaration that. the lamp lighters and the janitors are overpaid. :: = :: :
 The hypocrite has now been: exposed. The work ingmen see him as an advocate of lower wages and Republicans see him. as secret -conspirator with Rainey for division of municipal patronage. He will elected bow to Raney in the distribution of: the spells of office and then try make record for: economy by reducing the wages: of every working man in the service of the city =:
