thousands of laborers who have fed
from low wages to high will be found
to have brought low wages with them,
and our schedule. unless artifcially
maintained. will surely decline in the
process of equalization.
The political consequences may be
as easily forseen. A vast majority of
these immigrants come from oun
tries where the sole domestic remedies
fol the conditions from which they
are fugitives are socialistic OF worse.
1t requires no prophet to tel that when
this great excess of numbers results
in renewing these conditions here their
possession Of the ballot will work
changes hat will be destructive to our
institutions, or at least will modify
them ont of the form in which their
maintenance is desirable for Ameri-
cans.
The various immigration laws con
sidered by Congress offer no efficient
remedy at all. They propose to shut
out anarchists. But who can tell an
anarchist by any visible, physical
mark? Men may freely enter the
country with the latent spirit of an
archy in them, to have it actively fer
mented by the many centers of anar-
chist agitation which already exist in
the center of us. The law compels
each immigrant to bring in a small
amount of money, but that Limitation
offers no obstacle at all. The enor-
nous number of foreign immigrants
aIeady located here and getting Amer
lean wages can send. and do send. to
their old countries the needed amount
of cash to secure their admission. and
the same money, by collecting it from
them on landing, may be sent over to
bring in others and serve as the key
to u country and its privileges over
and over again.
It is noted that our immigration
officers are in many instances them
selves foreigners, and developments
that are not forgotten prove that
their sympathies are usually with
their own kind rather han with the
country they serve and the laws they
are administering. Blu even with the
most faithful vigilance the execution
OF the preventative sections of the
law is beset with difficulty.
The time is here when those who
desire to serve the American wage
scale from declension, and American

unnecessary trial, must consult to-
gether as to the ways and means. 1t
is a matter purely of self-preserva-
ton and is in no sense an opposition
to foreigners. The issue is exactly the
same a hat presented by Chinese
exclusion, with the POLITICAL part can
celed out. since the Chinese cannot
become citizens and have no vote by
which to effect our civil institutions.

STEEL NAoNATE DEAD.
Benjamin F. Jones. ST.. Passes Away
Unexpectedly-Prom In
State and Nation.

Pittsburg, Pa, May 20.-Benjamin F.
Jones, ST., member of the advisory
board of Jones & Langhlin's Steel COM
pany, limited, and for many years head
of their immense manufacturing Inter-
ests, died at his residence in Allegheny
ut 2:25 Tuesday morning.
The end came unexpectedly Mr..
Jones had been i'll for the past week
or ten days from nervousness, but no
serious results We're apprehended.
Mr.. Jones had been one of the fore
most contributors to the wonderfulin-
dustrial development of Pittsburg and
for years has exerted great influence
on the public affairs of Pennsylvania.
His life has always been filled with re-
probabilities. His wise foresight and
indomitable nature made him q con-
spicuous figure not Only in the state,
but in the nation. He was chairman of
the republican national committee
during the Blaine campaign in 1884,
I and was known throughout the coun-
try.
While making no pretense as a writ
er or public speaker, Mr.. Jones wrote
an article on protection in the North
American Review which has become a
classic and his speech in calling to or
der the republican national conven-
ton of 1883 evidenced his ability as an
orator.
One sad feature of Mr.. Jones' sudden
death was that only Monday 1t was
announced that he and Mrs. Jones

TOO MUCH OR TOO LITTLE RAIN
weather Conditions rail to strike
the Happy Medium ana the
Country's Crops suHef.

Washington, May 20.-The weekly
crop bulletin OF the weather bureau
Is as follows: All northern and CEN
trail districts east of the Rocky Moun-
tains experienced highly favorable
temperatures during the week ending
May 1S, the central valleys, lake re-
gion and New England receiving
ample and much-needed warmth,
while in the southern states 1t was
too cool for favorable growth. The
very general absence of rain in
New England and the middle Atlantic
states, and over large part of the
lake region and Ohio valley, has In
tensified drought in these districts,
in consequence of which crops have
made slow progress, and planting and
termination have been greatly him
dered. The east gulf states and por-
lions of the lower Missouri and low
er Mississippi valleys have suffered
from excessive rains. On the Pacific
coast the week was rather cool, with
no rain over the greater part of CAL
ifornia. There were generally good
rains in Washington, with light show
ers over a large part of Oregon. but
more rain is needed in the last
named state.
Corn planting has been further de-
layed by rains in the states of the
lower Missouri valley and by drought
in the Ohio valley, Middle Atlantic
states and portions of the lake
region. Planting is well advanced
in the Dakotas, and notwith-
standing the wet soil in Iowa
and Missouri, has been vigorously
pushed in these states, where it is
terminating satisfactorily. In Ne
braska, the Ohio valley and middle
Atlantic states a large part of the
crop is yet to be planted, not more
than half the area having been seed
ed in Ohio and Nebraska.
Winter wheat has made favorable
progress in Nebraska and Kansas,
and has been improved by rains in por-
tions of Missouri. Oklahoma, Texas,
Arkansas, Tennessee and Kentucky,
but in southern Missouri and in the
states northward of the Ohio river,
and in the Middle Atlantic states the
crop has suffered further deteriora-
ton. 1t is heading as far north as
central Kansas and the southern por-
tions of Indiana and Ohio.
In the spring wheat region the
weather conditions have been highly
favorable for termination and
growth of spring wheat, which ia
coming up to good stands with Wig
orous plants. In the northern Rocky
mountain states the growth of spring
wheat has been slow; in Washington
and Oregon the outlook is very prom
Using.
In the Missouri valley, Oklahoma
and Texas n general improvement in
the condition of cats is indicated, but
in the Ohio valley, middle Atlantic
states, and the greater part of the
lake region, the condition of the crop
is less favorable, owing to the eff
fects of drought.
Further improvement in the outlook
for apples is indicated, but the pros
poets for most of other tree fruits
are very poor.
The grass crop in the Ohio valley,
lake region, Middle Atlantic states
and New England is much in need OF
rain, but west of the Mississippi it has
made rapid growth and is in promis.
ing condition.
