MORE LooKJAw VICTIMS

Tho papers are commenting on the
recent cases OF tetanus reported to
have occurred In Camden, n, Jp as a
result OF vaccination, and very gem
orally the statement Is accepted That
the deplorable consequences were due
not 20 the surgical operation Itself but
to the carelessness Of the victims In
attending to the wounds, The Boston
Herald adds;
"The practical Lesson taught by these
unfortunate cases Is that vaccination
although harmless IN Itself, should not
be regarded AZ a trivial matter put
should be Kept scrupulously clean, pro-
tccted from contact with the clothing
and the yacclnated patlont should pre-
sent himself from time to time TO the
physician 80 that his vaccination may
receive proper care. Il IL dangerous
for patients TO attend to vaccinations
themselves"
Since those remarks were printed,
some other fatal cases Of tetanus fol-
lowing vaccination have occurred
These are only sample Of large NUM-
Der reported In anti-,acclnaton papers
and magazines, English and Amerl-
can. We think they are sufficiently
numerous and Authenticated to Justify
close and impartial Inquiry on the part
Of pro.yacoInators as to the real cause
OF these terrible and fatal effects

AslArios IN THE UNITED STATES.

A special bulletin prepared under the
direction Of Mr., William c. Hunt, chief
statlsticlan for population, gives flg-
ures showing the total number and dis
trlbuilon Of Chinese and Japanese res
ldents In the United States rhe figures
are Of interest at the present time,
when there Is strong agitation In
favor OF the continuation Of the pro-
visions OF the Chinese exclusion net,
They show that the largest number by
far IN found IN the western states and
territories, and that consequently, the
West IS most directly Interested In the
matter
According to the Twelfth census, there
were i19,0b0 Chinese in the country OF
these 25,7e7 were In Hawaii, S,1l6 in
Alaska, SO4 at military and naval sta
lions abroad. and s9,S6S In the United
States proper. OF this number 67.72S
were enumerated In the West, distrfb-
uted as follows, Arizona, l.4l0; Calf
fornia, i5.75S; Colorado, 500; Idaho. 1,467;
Montana,i 1888 Nevada, $685. New Mex
leo, 3ii, Oregon, 1887: Utah, 572;
Washington, 1929 and Wyoming, 46l
The Japanese are not quite as nu-
merous as the Chinese. The Twelfth
census returned $4,000, and Of these
glib were In Hawaii, 279 in Alaska, 2Sf
at military and naval stations abroad,
and 24,32e in the United States proper
OF this number 1886 were found in the
West, distributed as follows Arizona,
ssl; California, 1o,ibl; Colorado, 4S; Ida
no, 1921; Montana, 24li Nevada, 22S;
New Mexico 8; Oregon, 25Ol Utah,
Az; Washington, 5,6i7; and Wyoming
1893.
California and the Hawaiian islands
have the greatest number OF thes.
AslatIc residents, and It Is but natural
that the agitation for the exclusion Of
new arrivals Of that class, should be
strongest there. Public sentiment In
California has been strongly expressed
against lifting the bars, to permit Chi
nese immigration And now the Hawai-
ian delegate to Congress, Mr. Robert
Wilcox, comes instructed to present
resolutions favorlng the prevention OF
further immigration Of Asiatlcs to the
Islands. The resolutions by the Home
Rule" party declare that while 90 per
cent Of the Asiatlcs that are in the
country came from the Orient to be
plantation laborers, less than So per
cent OF them are such now, the rest be-
Ing engaged In competing with the
whites and Hawaiians as mechanics
and merchants. That is the root Of the
trouble everywhere The Aslatics are
supposed to be Industrial rivals, with
whom white laborers cannot compete.
This is, OF course, not apparent In the
East, where the intruders are so few,
but as the matter appears to be chiefly
a Western question, the experience Of
the West Is entitled to the chief con-
sideration.

SPEAKING OF RECIPROCITY.
Los Angeles Express.

Among the recent contributors to the
talk on reciprocity are Congressman
Dalzell of Pennsylvania and Roberts of
Massachusetts, both representatives of
leading industrial states of the coun-
try, Says the former: 1.-THE only re-
ciproclty ] favor is on the basis Of
non competing articles, The 20 per
cent cut on textile fabrics in the
French treaty would destroy the textile
industry OF Pennsylvania - Says the
Massachusetts representative: I'VE do
not want the reciprocity that viii open
our markets to foreign competition and
give us nothing In return" THIS is
a forcible statement of the argument
which IA advanced by the Pacific coast,
and with due emphasis upon the word,
us" Southern California will applaud
the remarks.

That there is q large and steadily In
creasing element OF American produce
ers and traders who do not take "a
narrow view of the situation and who
see that reciprocity is logical and
proper consequence Of the nations re-
cent advance Is not to be doubted
however, and to this element the pub
lie must look for aid In overcoming
selfish obstruction. As President Me-
Kinley declared In his Buffalo speech,
there can be no commerce which does
not comprehend the idea Of exchange;
there can be no receiving Of trade IA
vors which does not involve the giving
OF favors. Today every commercial
power Of Europe whose business is
worth talking about Is more or less in
imlcal to American industrial advances
because of the inability TO secure any
thing like fair basis of exchange II
this policy be maintained indefinitely II
cannot be long before the nation win
llid itself facing such antagonlsm as
Will materially check further advance.

Reciprocity is, to begin with, a con-
fesslon that there is over production
on certain things which can be utilized
In O dicker with foreign governments,
II implies concessions in such q decker
as q matter OF course concessions
which will admit the foreign competitor
to our market at the same time that
our competition Is admitted into the
foreign market AS the chairman in
dicated, tangible advantages must come
out OF the arrangement for both par
ties TO the contract, and II Is absurd TO
speak of tariff concessions on things
which we do not produce at all. For,
in the first place, we would not need
protection against such importations.
and, in the second place, the great COM
mercial nations with whom we are ne
gotiating treaties do not produce them

II Is by no means certain, however,
that Il Is worth while to undertake
any extensive reciprocity system. The
more carefully the proposals for such
a system are considered the more COM
pick and the more perplexing do the
difficulties attending II appear. More
over, there remains always the objec-
ton raised by Senator Hoar that such
treaties would have the effect Of taking
our tariff regulations out Of our own
hands and subiecting them to the in
fluences Of foreign nations. The coun-
try at present is prosperous, and II will
be at this time wisdom on the part OF
Congress to let well enough alone.
There is no use In disturbing condi-
ton which Is satisfactory alike to in
dustry and TO trade.
