THE TIDE OF IMMIGRATION.
One Is Astonished at the Prospective
 Future of This Country.

Boston Globe.
 The March immigration in New York was some 10000 more. than the previous year. and the influx shows no signs of abatement. The probability Is that this years admission will break all records.
 The immigration into this country is truly Astonishing. We have received 2, ,W0600 immigrants since 1SN and over 2o.0O0,O0O have lauded since 1S45.
 Thus. within single generation this country has absorbed from Europe main- of Norway. Sweden, Denmark and Ser via combined, twice as many as now live in Persia. once the worlds mistress; or nearly as many as the total peopling today of Ireland. Scotland, Wales and all Canada
 We need not he afraid of these as founding access!ons. nor are we liable to he swamped by them. The problem Is not how to exclude them, but how to get these hundreds of thousand of new-com- CTS away from. the coast cities to the farms of the Middle West. where the need of labor is very keen. where wages are good and social conditions as hope ful as the sunny skies.
 Immigration reached it's lowest ebb in 1897 and 1898 Since then regular tidal immigration from 1850 to 1854 was 19l1.- 583. and added nearly 9 per cent to our population.
 Immigration finds its chief stimulus In good news abroad of American prosper ity. Certainly that vas never greater than now. and great as IS the influx the West and South are suffering for want of labor One Is asto lnded at the pros pectire future of the country.

MISTAKES OF INDIAN POLICY.

This great and glorious government of ours is guilty of many foolish things in it's dealings with the Indians. The order Issued last year requiring them to have iheir hair cut short like that of the whites was unjust and indefensible. It had no more equity behind it than would yuch an order applied to the whites. The Indians are as much welded to their style of dress. ornament and other per- sonai habits as the white people. are much more so, in fact. for their styles are hallowed by immemorial custom and are sacred to them. To order them to change these habits at once in obedience to an Fon-clad rule was unwise and unjust.
 But even this order Is not to be com pared with that recently decided on by he Interior Department to require or command all Indians to discard their In. Han names and adopt the white mans nomenclature. 'This was the most un- kindest cut of all," and if the red men revolt at 1t who shall blame them?. It is Admitted, that, many of their names seem absurd to English ears. They are fre- auentIy lengthy, difficult to pronounce and to us meaningless, but will any one claim that they are either more difficult or meaningless than are some of the Russian. Polish and other foreign names brought us by immigrants from the old world? Why not order them changed to conform to English standards? Why would one order be more unjust than the pther7
 To American ears many of the names adopted by Indians are ridiculous but to them these names have significance which we are unable to appreciate. The custom has descended from father to son through time whereof the memory of man takes no account. The custom of giving each warrior an appropriate name appropriate because it describes some characteristic, some brave deed or some praiseworthy act-is as much part of their lives as is their belief in the Great Spirit, pr the happy hunting grounds of the hereafter.
 Cur government never seems satisfied unless it is rubbing the Indians the wrong way. Many of them have forsak- en the ways and customs of their fore fathers. and are becoming educated, cul- tured and in all ways creditable Ameri- can citizens. They adopt the habits, the customs and the nomenclature of civil lzation. and there are thousands of them today who compare favorably with the best representatives of the white race. aF suming the duties of good citizenship is constantly increasing, and if a proper course is pursued the time will come when a red Savage" will be as rare as an educated Indian was three centuries ago. But Indians cannot be driven into complete civilization by forcing them to ~AAA-A tlaAir names and cut off their hair.

forms of productive industry and to in- crease the employment of labor at good wages: to prevent unjust and unreaso able discrimination against any of its members by any person. combination or conspiracy'to prevent such members from securing employment in any branch of in- dustry. and to protect and defend its members against any and all attempts by any person or combination of persons to abridge the inalienable right of all mankind to work for such wages as shall be mutually satisfactory to the individual workman and his employer.
 This is well enough, but how long win they stick to it? Some of its provisions are excellent. especially those which ad- vocate amicable relations between em- ployers and employees, and those which deprecate any attempt to interfere with the right of all persons to work when and where they please. If this union will honestly stick to the principles laid down above it may be the beginning of change that is badly needed.

TURN DOWN OF CORBIN
HIS ARMY AND NAVY FRIENDS ARE DIsPLEASED.
It Has Been Suggested That They
 Show Their Displeasure By Withdrawing From the Metropolitan Club.

Washington, April Especial )-The re- lection of the application Of Generai COT bin for membership n the Metropolitan Club of this city has caused decided feeiink among army officers ana prom ises to result in proceedings wnicn may lead to the retirement Of very con siderable number of that class or the club membership.
 It is alleged by the friends of Corbin that no charges were made against nm, and that his rejection was secured by few individuals because of personal feeling inspired by hostility based on the official action of the Adjutant Gen eral in denying favors sought by them.
 The opposition to Corbins admission was so pronounced that his friends made an earnest effort to overcome It ana for several days before the meeting of the governors, an active canvass was in progress.
 The adverse action of the governors is regarded by many of the army officials as an affront to the army and there Is talk of that class of the clubs members holding a meeting 10 resent It. The proposition that seems to meet with favor is that all officers of ne army shall with draw from the Metropolitan Club, and If that course shall be adopted the club will lose a considerable number of it's most active and ,iis'i rsushed members.
 Nearly all the officers of the military and naval service Ste,ong to the Army and Navy Club, which has fine building within block of the Metropolitan. The latter. however, has much t1e largest and finest club house and it's membership includes members of tire diplomatic corps and considerable number of Sen ators. Representatives and prominent of. ficia1s in he executive departments. This fact adds to the attractiveness of the Metropolitan. and has drawn to 1t many army and navy officers. both active and retired
 Should the army and nay men with draw in any considerable number from the Metropolitan and tr1nsfer their pat ronage to the Army and Navy Club. the latter would socn rival the former. Many of these gentlemen are strongly advocat- ing that course.

The Kansas City Journal tells story of the President rambling around after midnight in his night shirt, looking for a watchman. No. the house was not burn ing nor being robbed. nor was there any great affair of state to be looked after The President merely wanted the watch man to telegraph to San Francisco for news of the prize fight of the evening before. And The Journal takes nearly a half column of editorial space to discuss the affair as if the President had done something commendable. There's about the superlative of snobhery.

As an evidence of what small business Legislatures can sometimes indulge in we note that during the closing hours of the recent session of the New Hampshire Legislature a bill was introduced and "squirreled through" as The Union ex- presses 1t. to turn out the janltor of the police station at Manchester. This jan itor had been legally hired for term of one year, beginning on the first of the present month, but he was not acceptable to the Republicans. so they enacted a special law to get rid of him. Such small politics makes decent people sick.

WE OFFER AN AMENDMENT.

The Cordele (Ga.) Sentinel. feeling the good effects of the bright spring season, declares that good schools good roads and rural mail delivery make farm life attractive and country prosperous" We are not denying the efficacy of the three blessings set forth. In fact, they have become something more, for they are com ing to be regarded as necessities. Good schools are the foundation stones of good citizenship. good roads are the avenues which lead neighbors and friends togeth- CT, and free delivery is the means by which the news oi the outside world is brought to each and every citizen. Tho good school Is the first step on the road to content good roads is the next and the rural free delivery broadens the horizon and enables each citizen to keep in touch with the world at large and to understand and appreciate what Is going on in other sections of our busy life. The schools

This repeat ed success of one who has some gro- tesoua characteristics, yet who has evi- dentIy impressed himself on his fellow citizens as an honest man. without the tear of a boss or a machine before his eyes, Is more than a passing curiosty.

Pittsburg. April 9.-The American Bridge Company outwitted the strikers today and succeeded in landing 100 non-unlon men at the eompany's new town of Ambridge. situated few miles below this city. When the train arrived in Pittsburg a number of strikers attempted to board the cars, but were forced off by the special of- ficers.
 The train was then moved to Allegheny, the supposed destination being Clarion. but the men were taken to Ambridge. and quietly housed in the company's ex- tenslve quarters at that place. They will probably be put to work on the Wabash bridge tomorrow.

These tgures show that in every State named the negroes practically hold the balance ot power. As in the southern States the fear of negro domination keeps them Democratic. so in the Northern States the solid black vote serves to maintain Republican supremacy. When the negro shall become so intel lectually advanced as to interest himself in politics so far as to understand the erect of his vote in determining the leg islatio and policies of the Government. he will be a more useful and less danger ous citizen. He will no longer flock by himself"
