HOSE WHO ARE INFORMED on
4 the matter of Immigration have
come To the conclusion that it is time
for the United States to stop talking
about che yellow peril" and devote a
part Of its 5ime 10 doing away with

the Influx OF undesirable foreigners

inspectors say that every intending

ticket has taken advantage. or expects
TO take advantage Of them, are alto
gether undesirable citizens. This is
evidenced by the statement that more
than IL per cent Of the total immigra-
ton in. recent months has come from
Russia, Austria-Hungary, italy and
the Balkan states. In the fiscal year
ended June 80. 1903. $50 600 immigrants
came to this country to become ciu-
zens. The fiscal year that ends June
30. 1904 wiu it is thought, break the
record established i'm 1903.
Discussing the immigration question
i'm a sermon delivered in Philadelphia
some days ago. the Rev. DR.. Madison c..
Peters put the case thus strongly:
I'VE are today in America eievating
the condition Of the people. of the south
and east of Europe al our own expense,
and TO our sorrow and humiliation If
our immigration continues i'm charac-
ter and extent for twenty years as it
has for the past twenty, we shall see
many Of our best citizens going from

Europe win take their places"
We hardly think the day VIII ever

THE rELEPHoME INDUSTRY.

= ONE SURPRISING FACTS in reIa-
y tion to the growth Of the telephone
industry are set forth in a bulletin re-
Gently issued by the United States cen
sus bureau. 1T shows that there are
100000 miles of telephone wire. strung
and In constant use, in this country.
That Is enough wire TO wrap around
the globe 200 times. and it is possible
that enough has been strung since the
census figures were gathered to wrap
once more around the earth, with a
few thousand miles left over for goou
measure. and only twenty-five or thir-
ty years ago the telephone was consid-
cred a great novelty.
Not until 1876 was Alexander Graham
Bells invention considered more than
the fantastic dream of half-mad i'm
veutor. Today the total capitalization
Of the telephone industry OF the United
States is more than S}50, 000.oo0 There
are over 1900 separate and distinct
systems and 2.S7l,0H telephone instru-
meuts I'm daily use, In this industry
64.628 wage-earners are employed, and
1924 salaried officials and clerks. The
former draw &26.369.185 annually and
the latter S9.S85. $50.
Receipts of telephone companies ag-
gregated $50 g25. $50 in 1902, and the ex-
penses for the same year were sol, 152, o.
S23. Interest TO the amount Of So. 41L948
was paid on bonds and the dividends
distributed among shareholders aggEe-
gated S14SS2,719. Not including the in
terest on bonds, it viii be seen that
the income was 50 per cent greater than
the expenses. which should surely
make the telephone industry an attTac-
tive field for capital The amount Of
use OF the telephone may be under
stood from the statement that $780,
100000 telephone conversations were
carried on during 1892. according to the
most accurate estimate possible.
The census report shows also the
growth of the rural telephone system.
It gives data covering 994 sO-Called
mutual systems. or systems in which
the subscribers pro-rate among them
selves the cost OF maintaining the
service In these systems there are
close TO 1000 miles of wire and S9,516
instruments. Commercial companies
operate 1883 rural lines containing
lsg.426 miles of wire and 1219o5 instru-
ments. Then there are 1885 Independent
farmers lines. with 55,747 instruments
and s9g6j miles of wire.

DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR FOR
MASSACHUSETTS,

The defeat OF Governor John J.. Bates
for a third term by William L. Douglas,
the Democratic candidate, and the tre-
mendous vote cast throughout tie State
were the noteworthy features OF the elec-
ton on the 9Th inst. in Massachusetts.
Mr.. Douglas will be the first Democratic
governor elected since 1892.
With one ward and one small town
missing, the vote for president was as
follows: Roosevelt. 157, 7,46S; Parker
l68,4l7. Roosevelt's plurality S9,051.
The vote for governor with the same
pre-incts missing was as follows. Doug
las, 235, 5,457; Bates, i9S,798. Douglas
plurality, 36,659.
Notwithstanding the defeat of the
party candidate for governor, the Re-
publicans gained one Congressman, two
Senators and several members of the
House and probably elected the balance
Of the State ticket, including Lieuten ant
Governor Curtis Guild, Jr.
The new Congressional delegation will
stand Ii Republicans and three Demo-
Gratis. The legislature, which will select
two United States Senators, win stand
in the upper branch thirty-four Repub-
licans and six Democrats, and the lower,
1853 Republicans and seventy -one Demo-
Gratis and one Independent,
For hefirst lime IN several years there
win be no socialists in the Legislature.

GRAHAM
DENIES
CHARGE
Made by Kay That He Prom
iSed the Latter His
Support

The MATTER of the speakersnip of
the next legislature lis coming apace
with considerable animation and
warmth AIS intimated yesterday, Mr..
Graham has come out in an Interview
stating his side of the case. The
statements from his point of view
seem to Justify his position. and the
whole controversy brings to mind a
number of similar features in the his,
tory of Oregon Legislators. Many
years ago one A. N. Giibeut-"Big
Andy"-sat in the Legislature from
this county and became a candidate
for speaker. He would have won out
but for the opposition of one Of his
colleagues, and this resulted in the
election of George w. Mcbride. The
reJubt was largely influential in shap-
ing the political aspect i'm Oregon for
many years, as Mr.. McBmde after
wards became secretary of state
United States senator and worlds
fair commissioner Some years later
Hon. T. T. Geer was a candidate for
speaker when the astute Tilmon Ford.
his colleague, thought best to trans.
fer that office of prdgtige to Multno-
NAH county. The result is we'll
known.
A similar condition existed two
yeanH ago when Mr.. Kay of this coun,
ty declined his support to Frank Da-
vey. In the light of these facts, it is
evident that Mr.. Graham's position is
not new one.
Mr.. Grahsm's Interview.
Mr., Graham said:
1T rs certainly to be regretted that
owing to a misunderstanding that has
arisen between Hon. T. B. Kay and
my1elf in regard to mis- candidacy for
the speakership of the house that he
should rush into print and endIeavor
to place me in bad light before the
people of Marion county.
THE Marion county delegation was
called together by Mr.. Kay to meet at
Salem on Monday the Sth inst, but as
I did not know there was a meeting
called for that date / went into the
country on business, and the first JIM
timation had of a meeting was when
Mr.. Kay 'phoned me that there would
be meeting and asked me to return.
1t was impossible for me to return
before nearly O'Clock, and then found
that Hon. ]. S. Ritchie and Hon. ]. H.
Settlemier were the only members
that had been at my office. but owing
