Rock Island Railroad.

The proposition to secure that
coal land lying south of this place,
referred to in these columns few
days ago, and have the Rock
Island build in here from Colorado
Springs via Beaver creek, should
be we'll considered by the people
of Florence
The Rock Island is recognized
as one of the best roads operating
in this country, and to have this
line extended into Florence will
mean much to her co .mercial
fabric.
Although the proposition to
build in here has not been formal
ly submitted by the Rock Island
people, yet it is understood that
they would do 30 were PROPOSE
ton submitted to them. These
coal bodies, AS The TRIBUNE un.
derstands it, can easily bo secured
and the cost of obtaining them
would be small, and rs the road
has for long time wished to enter
this place, no doubt if the scheme
would be laid before the company
they would give it. at least, 9
hearing,
Owning no coal bodies of its
own, it looks very reasonable tha,
if they were told of the coal bodies

the loser.

EDUCATION AND IMMIGRATION


means of an educational test will
be introduced into the present
congress through the efforts of the
immigration restriction league.
The secretary of the league says:
The educational test is regarded
by nearly all students of immigra-
tion matters as the best method of
further restricting immigration.
1t is valuable not only in itself as
guaranty of rudimentary prepara-
tion for similatiou and citizen
ship, but also and chiefly because
it will in fact exclude those who
are Objectionable for other reasons
Statistics show conclusively that
the illiterate are, in general, those
who have criminal tendencies, are
averse to the country and congre-
gate in our city slums, are also
ignorant of trade, have little am
bition to raise their standard of
living, and no permanent interests
in this country. immigration is
increasing rapidly, being more
than twice as large as in 1897, and
this increase is chiefly made up of
the illiterate races of Eastern
Europe and Asia"
The following is the full text of
the bill:
"Be it enacted by the Senate
and House of Representatives of
the United States of America in
Congress assembled:
"That section one of the act of
March third, eighteen hundred and
ninety -one, in amendment of the
immigration and contract labor
Acts, be, and hereby is, amended
by adding to the classes of aliens
thereby excluded from admission
TO the United States the following
"All persons over Is years of age
and physiclly capable of reading,
who cannot read English language
or some other language; but an
sdmissabl immigrant, or person
now in or hereafter admitted to
this country may bring in or send
for his wife, his children under
eighteen years of age, and his par
ents or grandparents over fifty
years of age, if they are otherwise
admissa BILE, whether they are &c
able to read or not.
SEQ. 2 That for the purpose
OF testing the ability of the immi-
grant to read, as required by the
foregoing section, the inspection
officers shall be furnished with
copies of the Constitution of the
United States, printed on uniform
pasteboard slips, each containing
not less than twenty or more than
twenty five words of said constitu.
ton printed in the various Ian
guages of the immigrants in double
small plea type Each immigrant
may designate the language in
which he prefers the test shall be
made, and shall be required TO
read the words printed on slip in
suoh language. No two immi-
grants listed on the same manifest
shall be tested with the same slip.
An immigrant failing to read as
above provided shall not be admit
ted, but shall be returned to the
country from which he came at
the expense of the steamship or
railroad company which brought
him.
"SEc 3 That the provisions of
the Act of March third, eighteen
hundred and ninety-three to facili-
tate the enforcement of the immi-
grafton and contract labor laws
shall apply to the persons men,
toned in section one of this Act.
''SEC. 4. This Act shall take
effect July l. 1902.

The emigration and immigration
statistics Of the year 1900 show that
more people leave England than en-
ter it. The following figures show
the totals Of the general passenger
movement. Outward to countries
outside of Europe, 298,561; to Eu-
rope, 669,292. Inward from outside
Europe, 175,747; from Europe,
788,825. Balance in favor of out
ward movement, 1891; increase
over 1899 of 21,456. Net influx of
natives in 1900 from the United
Kingdom, $4,000; net influx of for
eigners, $4,000, Of whom $4,000
were foreign seamen, who, leaving as
members of crews, do not count as
emigrants. Thus the increase in the
foreign population was $4,000, chief
ly In the east end Of London. The
majority of foreigners leaving had
entered during the year.

The awful tragedy that took place
In this city last Tuesday evening
which resulted in the instant death
of v. l.. Meredith, ex-chief of po-
lice and public official, is one that
is deplored by every true Seattle
man. Though Meredith was clearly
the aggresSor, and Considine killed
him to save his own life, yet it is
but human to pity the fate Of the
wife and two little children left be-
hind, and the same might be said
of Considine's wife and children.
whose husband and father is now
confined in prison cell. The whole
affair, however, is but another great
black blotch on the present wide
open policy permitted to flourish in
this city under municipal protection,
which has opened the gates of Seat
tie to all manner of criminals if they
will only pay the price to the city's
exchequer for the privilege Of oper-
ating. With three dangerous guns
and a dirk secreted on his person,
there seems to be no doubt but that
on the day that Meredith met his
fate he went out looking for trouble,
and though it took him all day to
find it he finally succeeded in locat-
ing it ere the close of the day, and
got what he was looking for. He
who sows to the wind will surely reap
a whirlwind in the end, and this tells
the tale of Meredith in nutshell.

King county boasts Of having
four-ffths of the population Of the
state, and paying four-ffths of the
taxes, yet she has to play second fd-
die to the smaller counties from a
political standpoint. This is doubt
less accounted for from the fact that
she has too much 'ME'' in her pub
lie affairs and offices.
