There is nothing surprising in the
announcement of the discovery by the
New York immigration officers that
there is a gigantic scheme in Europe
to ship paupers and criminals to this
country. There is every reason to be-
lieve that such a thing has been done
in no small degree, for many years,
in more than one European country.
The need of greatly restricted immi-
grafton is more and more pressing in
this country. A vast percentage of
those now seeking our shores are pau
perized, diseased, criminal, illiterate or
otherwise undesirable, and the dam to
keep out such menacing flood should
be raised and strengthened without de-
lay The problem is a difficult one as
an attempt to arouse race prejudice is
made whenever Congress takes up this
problem.

MARKET REPORTS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York. Jan. 5.-Today's extremely
irregular and uneven stock market had q
showing of considerable strength and q
fair degree of activity. The great spec
ulative pools were active at the few
points, but in stocks in which outside de-
mand appeared they We're inclined to take
their profits by supplying this demand.
The appearance of the outside demand,
in fact, meets the object of the principal
buying of the last three weeks winch has
been almost wholly by professional OPP
orators in anticipation of the conditions
now existing. The sustained character of
this advance, it's freedom from reaction
and the development now of the normal
easing of the money market, have served
to some extent to encourage the public
to buy stocks, something it had not done
for a long time past The money rate
relaxed very distinctly, today, and some
OF the banks reported renewals of call
loans for large amounts at materially
lower rates than those lately prevailing.
The market rate on the exchange fell
below 6 per cent. late in the day. Time
money also was easier and for the longer
periods there was difficulty in placing
funds. There was some evidence of in
vestment demand in the bond market and
some of the lower grade bonds which will
return a comparatively high rate of III
terest We're the favorites. Total sales.

Civil War; in it's story as frontier set
Element before the Revolution, as-town
and as city; there is rich local mate
rial which should be treasured for flu
ture generations. In the idea of a
room for historical relics in afpuplic
library building, in that of a recognized
curator and in the meetings at which
historic papers may be read there are
also plans which should be carried
through to realization. There are in
Maine several local societies of a like
nature. The counties of Kennebec,
Sagadaioc and lincoln have their his
toric societies.: while there are already
several towns which have similar or
CARNATIONS. But our Waterville friends
must make up their minds at the start
that the work of such society will
devolve upon the few, that it must be
carried on from pure love and that for
reward they must look to the gratitude
of the few of future generation who
prize such material as will be gathered
and know how to make use of it.

They tell me it's brand new year,
And yet | am suspicious,
Already it doth much appear
Like other years capricious.
Each January, as it came
With cold to test endurance
The poets offered me the same
Remarkable assurance.
And yet with clustering in March
And flowers to deck the Mayday,
And roses over the porch's arch,
When June was in its heydey,
With ills enough, and yet with cheer,
With thorns, and yet with clover,
1t is | fear, the same old year
That they've been working over
