UNDESIRABLE IMMIGRATION.

While congress is occupied with the
proposition to exclude undesirable i'm
migrants from entering the Pacific
ports, that body appears to have over
looked the fact that the doors on the
Atlantic side are wide open. Thous-
ands of immigrants are pouring into
the eastern cities every month. Re-
Gently one steamship brought to New
York 2,692 foreigners, which was in
excess of any previous record by 243.
and in spite of any attempt to exer-
else careful inspection over the new ar
rivals, there are many of them who
will not make the kind of citizens this
country wants. There is no disposi-
ton to shut the doors against the best
kind of immigrants who come to this
country to better their circumstances
and aid in the development of the
country. but a large part of those who
settle in the large cues Is not of this
kind. These should not be permitted
10 land; but, as a matter of safety,
they should be turned back. They
enter all of the Atlantic ports prac-
tically without molestation, with no
intention of eve becoming good Amer
leans. The contract labor laws are
regularly violated and the scum of
Europe is allowed to enter every day.
1t is a strange commentary on the
attitude of the powerful labor organi-
cations of this country that they do not
see that their own interests, as well
as the interests of the country at
large, are affected by this immigra-
ton and take steps to restrict it. 1t
is this very class of men who are re-
sponsible, in a large measure, for the
strikes in the coal regions. They
are ready by thousands to take the
places of other workmen. How could
1t be otherwise with from ten to If
teen thousand men arriving in this
country every month seeking employ
ment? Oversuppiy cheapens every
thing. and when the supply of labor is
in excess of the demand, labor be-
comes cheaner.

THE EVENING" NEWSPAPER.

Lee Starke, in an address before the
board of directors of the American AS
ISOLATION of Newspaper Publishers,
held a few days ago in New York, bold
ly stood by two general propositions
which are of more than passing inter.
est. First, advertising in the daily
newspapers was productive of better
results than advertising in the maya
zines; second, better results followed
advertising in the evening than in the
morning papers. He sustained the lat
ter contention by saying that seven
eighths of the supplies and furnishings
purchased for consumption and use in
the household were purchased by the
feminine head of the establishment.
The lady of the house has no time to
read in the morning, therefore. she can
barely glance over the news headings
in the morning paper without a mo-
ment for the advertisements. The eve
nlng, however, is the time of rest and
recreation. She can only read such
portions of the news as interest her,
but may completely digest the adver-
tisements and make arrangements for
her shopping next day. So far as the
bulk of the population is concerned. it
has no time during the day to read a
paper. Its only opportunity is at night,
after the labors of the day are over
ard the time for recreation and relaxa.
ton is upon them. AS the evening
paper prints the news on the day 1t
happens. usually twelve to fourteen
hours before the morning paper, it ap-
peals for circulation to all of those who
wish to keep fully abreast of the times,
and. therefore, is sure of attaining a
wide circulation and giving returns to
the advertisers. If in addition to it all
it is a paper which is at the same time
clearly and enterprising, n that may
safely be taken into the homes, it com
bines every element to secure subscrib.
ers and to richly repay an advertising
investment. ITO sum up, l believe ]
can claim, without successful contra.
diction," concluded Mr.. Starke, that
in the average community the evening
paper has the largest home circulation
prints the most local news, commands
the most responsive class of readers
most satisfactorily makes business for
the advertiser-and, indeed, that from
every viewpoint, the home evening
daily is the king of all advertising
mediums"
This is not merely plausible, but req
sOnable, and the conclusions are borne
out by observation and experience.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.

The Municipal Year Book" makes
possible for the first time an accurate
statement of the extent to which cities
of the United States own their public
utilities. The Engineering News con
denses some of the facts given as fol
lows:
Taking first a general view of the
whole country, it appears that (exclud-
ing cities which do not have the SER
vices named) nearly every municipali-
~ owns its sewerage system, over
half W their water supply, one-eighth
or more W electric lighting plants.
Very few places own gas works, only
one city owns and operates a street
railway system, and not a single mu-
nicipal telephone exchange is reported.
There are, however. some municipal
telephone fire alarm. and possibly pc.
lice. telegraph systems, OF the less
common municipal services, a few
cities own ferries. and a few others
own conduits for underground wires.
but none W commercial central heat,
ing stations.

n BEEF CON N

No cattle are being shipped to Den
yer. Kansas City, Omaha or Chicago.
All shipments have been ordered STOP
ped. Many thousands of head are on
the way to market, and three or four
days will pass before the effect of the
order is felt but at the beginning of
next week little or no stock will be Of
fered at the packing centers.
Commission men and stock owners
have taken this radical action because
of the raid by the cattle trust on the
price of stock. On Wednesday 16. 900
head of cattle reached Chicago. The
trust buyers dropped the price and pur-
chased only 5000 head, leaving 10. 900
head to be carried over to market. The
purchases consisted almost entirely of
the highest grade of cattle which Is
shipped chilled for the export trade.
On Thursday the stock market in
Chicago and the river cities was de.
moralized. Receipts was much heavier
than sales, and the pens were filled
with cattle, sheep and hogs, for which
the packing house agents declined to
make an offer.
The reason for the trusts refusal to
buy and its raid on prices is revealed
in kilograms sent from Chicago to "a
officers of all the western cattle asso-
Citations, asking them to bring infiu-
ence on their representatives in con
gress to choke off the inquiry into the
beef trust, and to stop proposed pro-
cedure against the packing companies
in the courts.
The meat trust evidently has be-
come alarmed at proceedings against
1t and proposed to compel the produc-
ers of stock to come to its help. The
trust claims that the larger part of the
profit from the high price of meat has
gone to the growers and feeders of cat.
tie, hogs and sheep, and demands that
they shall back it in fighting proceed
ings in congress and in the courts. Ii
says that it pays to the sellers of stock
practically the entire value of the meat
the tallow and the hide and that its
profit is made from the by-products.

ter of last year.. The register attrib
utes this decrease almost entirely &C
the spread of knowledge that consump.
ton is a communicable disease and to
the willingness of the people to coop
crate with the health authorities in the
preventive measures of cleanliness

The vital statistics for the last ten
years. showing a diminution of tuber-
culosis all over the world, have remov-

DR.. Koch's discovery that consumption
Is a p~reventable disease, is not neces-
sarily hereditary, and is distinctly cur
able in its early stages. II the same
progress in reducing the mortality
from consumption is made during the
next decade that has been made in the
past decade there is no reason to doubt
that what was once regarded as the
most dreaueu disease of the human
race may be finally stamped out.

DECREASE Or CONSUMPTION.

An interesting statement on the de.
crease in the number of deaths from
consumption in New York City has
Just been given out by DR.. Guilfoy. reg.
lister of the board of health. In 1881
the death rate from consumption was
i.27 a thousand population, and in 1901
II was only 2.5 a thousand. The doctor
accordingly estimates that 3.7S7 lives
were saved from 1881 TO 1901 in Man
haitian and the Bronx. and about 6,43O
lives were saved in the entire greater
city with a population of $500, 900.
For the first quarter of this year DIR.
Guilfoy shows that there were 1872 few
er deaths from consumption in New
