New Buffalo Bill.

Uncle Sam will soon issue a new ter
dollar greenback, which will be a novel
buffalo BILL" The design for the now
treasury note was drawn by a celebrate j
artist and student of animal nature who
is connected with the National Smith
sonian Institution. Several weeks ago it
was engraved by one of the most skillful
artisans employed at the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing. Its chief feature
is the representation of buffalo bull,
with bent head and outstretched tail, on
a prairie of sage grass, in the position of
paving for food. The note has been so
designed that about as much white will
show as is now visible on the silver GER
tificates of 1899.
After the Gage method adopted two
years ago, conspicuous numerals will be
used on the face of the bill. The buffalo
bill will be the fourth of series of five
bills which Secretary Gage planned to
have issued after a distinct American
type The first three OF the typical Amer
lean series were the 81 silver certifl-
cate, with the emblematic eagle, the 81
certificate, with portrait of George
Washington on its face, and the S. certiIi-
cate, showing the head of an Indiaa The
fifth and last of the series will have en-
grayed on the front and back portraits of
Meriwether Lewis and Captain William
Clarke, the American explorers.

THE YEARS IMMIGRATION

- COMMISSIONER POWDERLYS report
of immigration during the last fiscal year
~ shows that the total steerage arrivals num-
bered 487,oI8 being increase of 3o346, approx
mately nine per cent the arrivals OF last year.
In addition to the storage immigrants there were
during the year 74o5o alien cabin passengers who
tered the country making the total for the year
562,86S.
A study of the report shows something in the way
of improvement but still there remains good deal
that is far from satisfactory. One of the gratifying
features is the announcement that the character Of
the immigration is much higher than it has been in
recent years Thus the number of intending immi-
grants who were rejected considerably less than
last year, notwithstanding the increase in the total
number who arrived. On the other hand it is noted
that among the persons admitted there 1859
who could neither read nor write, and their general
poverty was such that 2o4S6o had less than $50 each
their arrival.
The classification OF the immigrants to race and
nationality shows that there arrived from Italy
1896, from Austria Hungary 1890, from Russia
S5,257 from Ireland so56I, from Sweden 1881 from
Germany 2I665, from Norway 1928 and from Great
Britain 1924 The majority of the immigrants gave
as their destination the States OF Illinois, Massachu
sets New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland. Com
paratvely few were going to the South or coming
to the far West Most of them going TO districts
where they have relatives friends already estab-
lished
The fact that so large proportion of the new
corners had less than $50 each is proof of the pow
erty from which they have sought to escape and
also of the low standard of living to which they
have been accustomed. Many of them indeed have
been almost forced tc emigrate from their former
homes by the pressure of taxation upon the scant
revenues derived from their profits or wages Ameri-

can influences will of course do much for many of
the newcomers, but the strain they will put upon the
labor market is certain to be severe in some COM
munities
Discussing the relation OF immigration to the labor
market and to the general welfare of the country
the commissioner says:
TO deal with the problem successfully it seems in
dspensabe to remove as far as possible these con-
dtons which conflict with the incorporation of the
alien element into the social system of the country
that by actual experience the former may learn as
soon as possible that the basis and foundation of the
American poty are respect and affection for and
wiling obedience to the laws and OF the land
because the maintenance of those laws is the best
safeguard of individual liberty 1t is therefore recon-
mended that Congress enact suitable legislation either
with if necessary without the cooperation of the
States for the purpose of distributing the alien popu
ation with some reference to the industrial law Of
supply and demand"
1t is probable the proposed legislation prove
advantageous to all concerned. 1t is at any rate
one OF the recommendations which merit considera-
ton when the whole subject of our immigration law
is taken up for revision, and that is task which
ought to be attended to promptly
