Some Flaws in the Paramount" Plank.

To expect consistency of the Democ-
and unheard of proceeding, but the in
consistencies of the Kansas City plat
form in dealing with what it is pleased
to term the paramount issue" are un-
usually glaring, even for Organism.
The hot wave which struck the city
along with the delegates. put their
minds in a sad state of acknowledgement.
For instance, they declare that ''all
governments derive their just powers
from the consent of the governed" and
in the very next paragraph they de-
mand that the United States give
the Philippines "a stable government.
They hold that the constitution fol
lows the flag" and yet though the flag
is in the Philippines they do not allow
that the constitution is operative there
to make the Filipinos citizens. They
issue a grand denunciatiOn against
.'militarism." alleging that it is in
volved in our holding Of the Pnillp-
pines, and yet they call for the perpet-
ual protection of the Philippines from
outside interference. They view with
alarm the danger to the Monroe doc
trine involved in the requirement of the
Philippines, and yet they demand that
the United States assure To the Phil
ippines protection from outside inter
ference. such as has Been given for
nearly a century to the republics OF

Americas Foreign Born.

Those who are disturbed by the pos
siple effect upon our country's future
by the steady stream of immigration
will get some degree of reinsurance
from an article in the July North
American Review by Mulhall, the dis
tinguished British statistician. Mulhall
makes a particularly interesting study
of the foreign-born population of this
country, and as he has the immigration
figures of recent years to aid him his
results are much more than estimates
of the census returns. He finds that,
in spite of the large immigration in re
cent years, the foreign-b born element
is relatively decreasing. The number
of these foreign-born now in America,
Mr.. Mulhail declares, will be shown by
with $780, 900 in 1890. Within the past
ten years 3,543 600 persons have landed
in this country. But Mr.. Mulhall esti-
mates that of these new immigrants
and the old ones, 1,550,000 have died,
and I,OS2 900 have returned to their
homes across the sea. OF the Irish i'm
migrants, according to this authority,
IL per cent have returned to their ma
tive country, IA per cent. of the Ger
mans and SO per cent. of the British.
Together, the Irish and Germans, the
two largest elements in our foreign
population, made up fifty per cent. OF
the whole foreiSn-b born in this country
in 1890 but because Of the decrease of
Irish and German immigration and the
increased influx of other nationalities,
the Irish-German proportion of our
foreign born stands now, Mr. Mulhall
estimates, at about fortythree per
cent. Indeed, he believes that the ac-
tual number Of Irish and German inn
migrants in this country has decreased
within decade. Here are his estl-
mates for the present year as COM
pared with the three years Of the pre-
ceding decennial census:

The Increasi ~ Railroad Business.

The work of the railroads is sure
index of the business conditions OF the
country. and the report of the inter
state commerce commission for the ifs
cal wear ending June 80. presents pros
pcrity facts that no calamity hoWler
can controvert. For the railways OF
the country it was an exceptionally
prosperous year; fewer roads went
under receivership and there was an
advance of business in all depart
ncnts. The report shows that the
total single track mileage in the United
States was 1S9, 294. an increase for the
year of 2S9S. This increase is greater
than for any year since 1893. The
aggregate length of mileage, including
tracks of all kinds, was 252,SGi. There
were &c. 703 locomotives in service at the
end of the year. or 469 more than for
the year ended June 80, 1898. The total
number of cars of all classes in the SER
vice was 1.315,916, an increase of 1912.
The number of persons employed on
railroads was 92S.924, an increase for
the year of 54366. Exactly 523, 176. sos
passengers were carried during the
year an increase of more than % 900 900
over the year previous. This official
