ceived from any one country, natur.
ally suggests as inquiry as to the
! particular nationalities that would be
affected by such measure. 1t will
tend in fact to revive public interest
in the general character of our Immi-
grafton and the changes it has under.
gone during a decade.
While there was no probability at
any time that the measure would re-
teresting to note the fact that the
only immigration that would have
been affected by 1t was that from Rus
sia, Italy and Austria Hungary The
| immigration from these countries dur
ing the fiscal year ending June 80.
1903, was as follows: Austria-Hun-
gary, 206,0l1: Russia, 1876 ,093; Italy,
23o.G22 If such measure as the one
proposed by Congressman Adams had
become a law it will be seen that the
immigration from Italy would be cut
Iowa 20 nearly one-third the normal
figure. while that from Russia would
be reduced by over $4,000 and that
from Austria-Hungary would be low
cred by more than half
The immigration from these coun-
tries ten years ago-for the year 1908
was: Austria-H Hungary, 59.633; Rus
sia. 45.S2s; Italy, 1916 An interest
ing feature of the showing is the re-
markable increase in Italian immigra-
ton. According to a publication is
sued by the Italian chamber OF com.
merce Of New York City that city and
state in 1850 contained only S33 Ital-
ians. In 1900 it contained 1S2,24S OF
Italian nativity and 90.324 more born
Of Italian parents.
The only reason for limiting immi-
grafton that would be apt to receive
any consideration by congress would
he protection from the ignorant, vic
ious, criminal or pauper classes of
Europe and other lands law mere.
ly limiting the number of immigrants
from any one country during year
would of course have no bearing upon
the fitness of immigrants for citizens.

DISEASE AS A WAR ALLY.

The dispatch from st. -Petersbure
TO the effect that an epidemic of chol
era and typhoid is threatened at Har
bin, the Russian military base in Man
churia. is surprising only by reason oi
the fact that 1t WAS permitted to pass
the censorship.
What has been learned from expert
enq- in former wars seems to be cas-
lily forgotten. In the Crmea the
French lost 236 men from sickness
to GA from wounds in each thousand.
The death rate of the English WAS
173 from sickness and AZ from wounds.
In Mexico the French lost per 1000,
40 from sickness and 40 from wounds.
In the RussoTurklsh war the Rus
SLAMS lost per 1000. 113 from sickness
and 40 from wounds. The losses in
the American civil war during two
years, June. 1861. TO June. 1868. were
53.2 per thousand. of which Sc were
from wounds and ii6 from sickness.
In the Boer war, while the figures are
not at hand in complete form. it is well
known that sickness was vastly more
fatal than Boer craftsmanship, deadly
as that was admitted to be.-New York

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.

The crop bulletin issued from Den
yer for the week ending Monday, May
2 shows that the temperature has av,
eraged nearly normal, and, though
lrosts have occurred, 1t is thought
that the damage is nominal. Cool
nights have caused rather slow
growth, Heavy rains. especially dur.
ing the closing days over the eastern
slope. have put the soil in prime con.
dition for plowing and the rapid ger
mination OF seed. In few districts
where the seeding of small grain and
the planting OF sugar beets has been
delayed by dryness ami cold, work
will not progress rapidly.
The preparation of corn and potato
land is well under way, and planting
has begun. Spring wheat and oats
are coming up 10 good stands, but
fall grain, while greatly revived, is
still poor thin and spotted Alfalfa
is much improved by the generous
rains, and in many localities is doing
nicely but the range is still generally
too short for grazing
Fruit in the principal districts is ap-
parently not seriously damaged by
frost. In the Arkansas and the west
esn valleys early varieties are setting
we'll, and spraying has begun; in the
northern counties trees are blossom
ing prolusely.

THE DEMOCRATS AND THE PAN.
ANA CANAL.

BY one of those disastrous mis-
chances which seem to be lying in am.
bush for the Democratic party in ev-
cry crisis, that unhappy political sect
is compelled to attack President
Roosevelt's policy in getting the Pan
ANA canal, although its own platforms
and leaders have always been declar
ing in favor of that enterprise. The
New York and Pennsylvania Demo
Gratis, in their state conventions few
days ago, denounced the policy which
has led to the transfer of the canal
company's property to the United
States and which will lead to the
building OF the canal. The Democrats
of those states were obliged to do this
in order to keep up a semblance Of
opposition to the Republican party.
The Democrats of the rest of the
states will be compelled to follow this
anticanal lead. In the St Louis con.
yention a plank will be adopted con

which its trainers can devise, the

COST OF NATIONAL GOVERNMENT

Contrary to the popular notion, the
cost of government is much less for
the United States than 1t Is for any
other great nation. While this cost
is at the rate Of S2l.3g per person for
the United Kingdom. sl7S4 for France.
$l4.27 for Austria Hungary. s1i.49 for
the Netherlands, 1854 for Norway.
Sweden and sg.45 for the German en-
plre, it is only s7y7 for the United
States. These figures are cited from
a report just issued by the board of
statistics at Washington, and thus
may be presumed TO be correct.
1t is well to have the fact pointed
out occasionally that the American
government is far less extravagant
than ii is often charged with being.
and less so than it is commonly sup
posed TO be. Some of the smaller
countries not cited here spend much
more money on their governments per
capita than do the larger nations. New
Zealand, for example, spent s3S3S per
inhabitant last year, which is nearly
twice the proportionate outlay of the
United Kingdom, and not far from five
times that of the United States New
Zealand is the country where socialist
ic experiments are tried extensively
That region is held up by the radical
social agitators as an ideally good
place to live in. II is evidently cost.
ly place for its people.
Of course, some OF the expenditures
of our state governments correspond
to outlays made by the central author
and an allowance should be made on
this account. After making all rea-
sonable reductions. however. in the
cost of such governments as Great
Britain, France and Germany to rem
der the comparison with ours fairer,
ter position as regards the expenditure
of our governmental machine than
are the people of Europe. We have
greater resources than any other ma
tion, and the cost of maintaining our
system must necessarily be heavy, and
growth in population, activities and
wealth. We are in far more for.
tunate position than are the people
of any other country, and as the cost
of government all over the world is
increasing. the chances are that the
nations in the burdens imposed on the
people will not get narrower-Globe-
