An Agreeable Job.

The pleasant little function at Sand wich, N. H., last week, in honor of Mir and Mrs. Grover Cleveland is a reminder that an ex-president of the United States has a far more comfort able and agreeable job than a president of the United States.
 A citizen of the United States who is elected to the presidency, as the can didate of either of the great parties, is pretty apt to be sufficiently able and well meaning to make at least fairly creditable ard satisfactory president. A man in public life who has attained maturity without getting anything on his record or disclosing any weakness of character that would make his nomination injudicious, and then can pass through the fire of a presidential campaign unscathed in the opinion of ajority of his fellow citizens. must be a pretty decent and cool-headed sort of a man, not likely to do any thing especially rascally or silly in his exalted and conspicuous office. Of course every president, during his term of office is the worst ever" in the view of the opposition. Washington was in his day and Lincoln was in his; but all that is materially modified as soon as the presidents term is over and he steps back into the ranks. His fellow citizens, without distinction of party, show a disposition to believe that he made a pretty good president after all, to be to the faults of his ad- ministration a little blind and to it's virtues very kind, to regard him as an honorable example of the possibilities of plain American citizenship, and al- together to make much of him. The longer the ex-president lives out of of- flee the stronger grows this disposition. He gradually becomes a sort of unoffi- cial "elder statesman and a party mentor Altogether he has a very com fortabIe job of 1t.
 Grover Cleveland is now the only liv- ing ex-president of the United States. On the whole, though he is apt to be time and does rather more "snuffing the battle afar off, than Is altogether becoming in retired war horse out at grass, he fills that honorable office with grace and dignity, and the longer, within reasonable limits, he contin- ues to retain his unique distinction, the better the people of the country will be pleased.

Criminal and Pauper Aliens.

The forthcoming report of Commis- sioner-General Sargent of the immigra- tion bureau, In which 1t is stated he
 will show the startling number of for eign born persons who have become public charges in this country as in-
 mates of penal and charitable institu-
 tions, will be awaited with deep inter-
 est
 It Is highly significant that such a
 large proportion of our foreign born population finds Its way into prisons and aims houses as does. According
 to the federal census of 1S90-the lat est statistics on this subject at hand the total number of inmates of prisons in the United States at that date was S2,300, nearly 16,OO0 of whom were of foreign birth, while the total number of inmates of poorhouses was 73,OOO nearly 28,OOO of whom were of foreign nativity. In the case of pris- oners the proportion of foreign born to native born persons was about one to four and in the case of paupers the proportion was about one to two.
 This is all out of proportion of the foreign born population to the total population O. this country fin 1890. The entire population of the United States in 1890 was substantially 6s0O0, OOO whereas the foreign-born population was only a trifie over 9,Oo0,O0O That means that the foreign born popuation, compared with the native born popu- lation, stood relatively one to five-and this, too. includes foreigners from Great Britain, Germany, Scandanavia and other lands. who, as a rule, are thrifty, self supporting and law abid- ing. Quitting this class of immigrants from calculation. it will be seen that the number of foreign. born criminals and paupers in this country was amaz- ingly and portentously large in 1890.
 It is pretty evident that the time is close at hand when the sitting process with regard to immigrants will have to be conducted more carefully than is now the case. It is all well enough for this country to stand as refuge for the oppressed" but the matter is entirely different if 1t has got to sup port a great army of foreign born beg gars and criminals.

General StoessePs Profanity.

We learned with regret. according to the dispatches of yesterday, that Gen eTsl Stoessel, commanding at Port Ar thur, was provoked into a burst of pro- fanity by the Japanese demand for the surrender of Port Arthur. We are in- formed that General Stoessel is a man Of taciturn disposition, not given to loquacity, and the silent man seldom swears The provocation in his case must therefore have been great
 But the Japanese had already done great deal in the vicinity of Port Arthur to irritate General Stoessel. They had been keeping him awake nights with their internal racket out side the walls of the fortress. They had got on his nerves. We have expe- rienced the same feeling on Fourth of July night.
 He appears to have been the more angered at the suspicion that the de- mand for the surrender of Port Ar thur was joke. In that he could not be greatly blamed, for then was no time for joking. Beside the Russians sense of humor Is rudimentary and the Japanese has none at all. The general therefore might rightly have reasoned if the Japanese intended that for a joke there was something malicious behind it; 1t was perpetrated only for the purpose of further injuring the feelings and sensibilities of the Rus sian commander.
 Looking at it from this point of view We may easily pardon General StoesseI for the elCamovitch and the go- tOhelofski of which he delivered him. self when the Japanese note was pre- sented to him asking him to give up the fort and the fleet and get out.
 It is possible that this episode will cut an important figure in the conflict. We are not sure that General Stoessel has not been guilty of a violation of the international rules of war. It is possible that his profanity will be pre- scented by the Japanese as an offset to the capture of the Ryeshitelni at Chefoo. A Russian oath cannot, we think, be hurled at a foe without sub jeCting the swearer to a charge of ex- traordinary cruelty of the kind the more humane rules of warfare are de- signed to prevent. We have given this matter the most careful attention and have widely consulted the later au- thorities on international law as ap- piled to war. Among them were Anne dee Brenet whose La France ct L'Al- lemagne devant le droit international pendant les operations militaires de la guerre de 1S70-71," is a recognized standard. NJ. Brenet does not especial ly mention the use of Russian cuss words nor Is a direct allusion made to them by Martens in his La Paix ct la Guerre," concerning "droits ct de- voirs des belligerants."
 Both these are recent authors and we are forced to the conclusion that they neglected to refer to Russian paths, believing that form of cruelty to have been fully covered in the earlier pro- hibition of the employment of chain shot in modern warfare.
