Public attention has been centered
of late upon the Chinese in their own
country; but the position of Chinese in
the United States now demands con-
sideration. The act of 1882 suspended
the immigration of Chinese laborers for
ten years, and the act of 1892 continued
the exclusion for ten years more. This
part of the law Will expire by limita-
ton next year. A kill will be introduced
in the next Congress to extend its pro-
visions for another period of twenty
years. On the other hand, an effort will
be made to repeal the act. Thus the
whole question of the treatment of
Chinese immigration will be reopened

IN the smaller places in England
horses have to be borrowed for the
fire engines. Often thirty to fifty min
utes are wasted in getting horses,
which, when an alarm of fire was
given, were at work at their daily
duty. A considerable amount of time
is also lost in finding the proper har-
ness for them. The horsing of steam
fire engines in country districts is a
very difficult problem. There is hardly
q town of any size in the United States
which does not have one or more fire
engines, and they can be got under
way with delay of from thirty Sec
onds to minute and half, while in
the larger cities even thirty seconds
would be considered slow work.

The Oriental maxim that nobody

ing, or stand if sitting will answer, or
sit if it is possible to lie down, finds
many adherents in days of extreme

busy because so many people resort to
them to save making a trip, and street.
cars are filled with those who would
otherwise walk. In short, all easy ways
of doing things are at a premium,
with the result that those persons who
are employed in the occupations that
save physical effort on the part of the
public are worked harder than ever,
