The commissioner general of immi.
grafton, under the advice of the sur
geon general, has given public warning
that tuberculosis of the lungs is "a
dangerous contagious disease" and
constitutes sufficient ground for the
exclusion of consumptive immigrants
from this country. This is an inn
portant official recognition of gener-
ally accepted medical principle, and its
effect can hardly fail to be beneficial
so far as its enforcement proves to be
practical

In 1855 it required on the average
four hours and "a minutes of the time
of a laborer to do the blowing, har-
rowing, cultivating. etc, that went to
the producing of bushel of Indian
corn, and the price of that labor was
nearly SO cents on the average. To-
day machines have changed condi-
tions. Their use has reduced the nee
essary time OF the laborer to about
"a minutes and the cost of it to about
1Oh cents. The wages are, however.
much better now than in 1855.

Partisan Legislation.

There is proposal on foot to make
the barbershOp attached to the Ma
tionai House of Representatives free
to all members. This is another of
those movements of the younger
members which is designed to upset
all the old traditions OF The House.
Congressman from the West and
South are at once placed at d dfsad-
vantage by legislation of this descrip-
ton and the beardIess boys from the
East and North profit in proportion.
1t is time something were done to
stop this partisan legislation in the
House. Members who desire their
hair cut, their beard shaved. or their
boots BACKED. ought personally to
bear the expense of the luxury. Such
privileges as are granted by the ma
ton to members should be practical
andJnot aesthetic.

some things superior to him, even if
he has to learn it by having develop
ments directly under his nose.
This voices the sentiment which
seems to be growing in England, that
insular superiority has lasted about
long enough, and that the home-stay-
ing EngHshman needs to be walked up.
The Boer war has undoubtedly had
something to do with this. The En-
gIish colonial is in much the same
position as the American, except that
he is bound by a certain tradition Of
reverence for the mother country and
moved by corresponding feeling of
resentment when she fails to COM
mand his respect.
The Australians and Canadians,
with their wood-craft and their gen
Grafton or two of knowledge of bush
fighting, proved so emphatically su-
PeTior to imperial troops in some Of
the South African engagements that
the spirit of the latter was sadly
shaken and their feathers were much
draggled. In India, where a small
body of Englishmen have for over a
hundred years held sway over a huge
mass of natives, administrators and
soldiers have been bred, but they have
mostly stayed in India or gone to
other colonies and made their living.
The Empire is just beginning to find
out how big her colonial children. and
her eN-offspring on the other side of
the Atlantic, are getting 10 be.

Room for Both.


Friendly rivalry IN the matter Of
honoriug the memory of William Ne
KinIey has led to friendly deadlock.
1t is natural that Washington should
want a monument. It is becoming
that Canton should have a shaft com
memorating the greatness Of one of
Ohio's most conspicuous sons.
The gentlemen who have undertake
en the Canton project are to be com
nended for their desire to secure the
most magnificent memorial possible
But the gentlemen who have Iabored
for National Capital monument are
as deserving OF commentator.
At the time of his death the mar
tyred President belonged 10 Washing
ton Concurrent with the grief that
swept the people here came the low
ing determination TO have an endur-
ing reminder of his natural nobility
and his political greatness. That idea
has become deeply rooted in the very
hearts of Washingtonians and they
do not want to tear it out
Mckinley made great republie
greater 1t would seem that he
made America big enough for two
monuments and that, as the father of
d new prosperity, he made its people
sufficiently well-to-do to render the
contribution Of sufficient funds a
merely incidental matter.
1t has been pointed out that the
great memorials to most of the dead
Presidents are outside of the Capital
and that, as n rule, they are mauso-
Ieums for the honored dead. How
ever, while Washington rests at
Mount Vernon, the most imposing
shaft in the world rears itself at the
National Capital as a tribute to his
genius and his greatness.
Washington is III the heart of the
american thoroughfare. Through it
pass not only our own pilgrims but
the travellers of all nations to view
ItS beauties and pay homage to the
memories of the country's great. \
Washington memorial, therefore,
would be most appropriate.
There should be enough initiative
and energy in both the Washington
and Canton associations to make
two enterprises successful. The an
nouncemeHt of an arrangement be-
tween the gentlemen IN charge to
proceed with the double project along
the harmonious lines BETTING such
work of love, reverence, and patriot
ism viii doubtless be an open sesame.
The American people have already
given evidence that they desire to
aid in Perpetuating the name and
deeds of William Mckinley in sculp-
tured stone and enduring bronze.
