DEATH OF DUMOND.

The sad and untimely end of John D.
Dumond of Boston, who was accident
ally shot dead by guide in the woods
of Maine, Wednesday, will be univer-
sally regretted by every republican in
New England He was widely known
as the author of the liquor law which
bears his name, and was particularly
prominent in the recent campaign as
one of the prime factors in securing the
nomination of Speaker Bates, and was
himself renominated as representative
of the legislature while promoting the
fortunes Of his political associate.
He was, in every sense of the phrase,
self-made man. He created his own
opportunities for self Improvement,
even while burdened from his early life
with all Of the responsibilities of pro-
viding for his mother and younger
brother. He employed his opportuni-
ties so well that few ever suspected the
early handicaDs that were placed upon
him.
These fatal errors of the Maine
guides, by the way, in installing men
for deer. are becoming altogether too
common, and their excuse that fawn-
colored hunting jackets are to blame
for it, is very poor explanation for
the loss of a good mans life. 1t would
seem t be a wise provision in the flu
ture that these guides should have the
same examination for eyesight that is
maintained in the United States army.
No one ever heard in the western coun-
try of regular soldier making such
an error. He knows better.

SATURDAY. OCTOBER IL, 1899.
IMMIGRATION.

DR.. ]. H. Senner of the United States
commission of immigration, at the port
Of New York, gave some very interest
ing testimony before the industrial
commission in Washington Thursday,
that can be most heartily appreciated
in this particular locality. He argued
that the agitation against immigration
was not justifiable, contending that the
present law was amply sufficient to an
swer all purposes. He expressed a
belief that there had been a marked
falling off in immigration during the
last few years, and that it had been
most marked among the countries pop
ulated by the most intelligent people,
particularly from Germany and the
Scandinavian states. He attributed
the decrease to what he termed ''the
vexations inflicted upon steerage pas
sengers upon landing in the United
States" Often, he said, they were not
allowed to come ashore for days, and
during that time they were treated
practically as prisoners.
This is directly in line with the inter-
views published in The Spy not many
months ago from Worcester Scandina-
vians who, by the way, rank among the
most thrifty, industrious and intelli-
gent immigrants that have come to our
shores. One argument of Mr.. Senner's
relative to this agitation against i'm
migration must strike hard in some
places. He says that it stands in a
strange position when viewed with the
| serves as a wholesale invitation to il
| literate if not savage co-citizens.

THERE ARE OTHERS.

There is an interesting trial in pro-
gress out in Missouri. Frank Griffin
conducted a daily paper called Grifin's
Daily Review. Griffin assailed c. G.
Jesse in his paper, plotted against his
wife, and threatened to publish state
men defamatory to his daughter. Jesse
did not waste any time in going to law
over the matter, but sent Griffin into
the graveyard, where his career in de-
flaming women would cease.
They are making a pretence of trying
Jesse for the act, but out in Missouri
they have a way of treating such mat
tiers, not from the legal standpoint, but
from the standpoint of chivalry, and
such a course might we'll be followed
in some of the older states. They
hold that the proper place for
any man who attacks the fair
name Of a woman, is in the
graveyard with his boots on. Frank
Griffin, the editor of Griffins Daily Re-
view, is there, but there are others who
still lag superf1uous on the stage.

WEALTHY INSTITUTIONS.

Of the educational conditions in Amer

statistics recently compiled by the New

Of some Of the leading colleges Of the

phia is one of the richest educational

Stanford, Jr., university comes next.
The productive funds of Girard are

his headquarters in one part Of the house

He is visited by the city committee and
she by the committee of strong minded

young wife goes to the polls in beauti-

DEWEY IN VERMONT.

Dewey's Vermont welcome lacked
the magnificence Of the grand recep-
tions in the great cities, but it was
from the heart. There he was among
real friends, among those who were
such before he became great. There
they knew him as George, and he knew
them as Jim and Bill The restraints
of official life were thrown off, and the
customs Of society set aside for the
genuine welcome of the great man to
the scenes of his youth, in the Vermont
way. Man may be gratified at honors
paid him by strangers, but in the
scenes of his youth, where he built his
air castles and sailed his ships on a
sea of romance, he finds something
which is lacking in all other places.

The surprising feature Of the yacht

looked for a frightful tragedy this past
