Our Enumeration LN.Us.

IMMIGRATION is subject which in recent years
has received considerable attention This country
used to pride itself being the only refuge for the
oppressed and downtrodden people of European
countries. With the exception of the Chinese it
has been easy matter for foreigner to enter this
country. No discrimination made. The good,
bad, and Indifferent unrestricted. Thousands
of insane, paupers degenerates, and protested Grim
nals were annually 'sent to sea-" It this fea-
ture of lax immigration laws which aroused
public opinion and directed attention to its evils In
many respects our immigration laws still in an
embryo state. At present there is being put into
operation system that being constantly improved
upon That there is demand for improvement, one
need only glance at the monthly publications to gain
an idea of the extent to which this subject is being
discussed.
Our immigration laws can be remedied SO as to
prevent undesirable foreigners from landing in this
country. After the necessary legislation has been
enacted all that remains to be done is to that the
laws are enforced. Many persons believe there
should be no restrictions whatever. Viewed from an
economical standpoint however, the question as

The President as am Arbitrator.

EVER since President Roosevelt used his in
fuence in bringing about amicable understanding
during the anthracite coal STRIKE he has repeatedly
been asked to settle disputes Of similar nature.
No doubt it would give Mr. Roosevelt great pleasure
to be able to adjust these differences Of opinion But
it is entirely beyond his jurisdiction to in these
matters. This is question which capital and labor
must settle among themselves. If these disputes
lead to the destruction Of life and property, then
they must be settled by the state courts. The pres
ident cannot interfere in these trivial misunder-
standings. To expect that he will use his exalted
position to intimidate these warning factions, would
be equivalent to asking him to abuse his powers.
So far he has declined to take any action whatsoever
Undoubtedly the welfare Of both capitalists and
laborers would be absolutely safe in the presidents
hands However, as he is in the employ of the
United States government, he can hardly be expected
to give these disputes proper attention and also be
an efficient administrator Let it once become gen.
orally understood that he is willing to act as an
arbitrator in such matters, and he will be flooded
with petitions praying for relief.

tain diseases of the eye. The influence
of radium upon the motor-nerve cen
ters he considers of still greater i'm
portnce. In two cases of nervous
spasms-which occurred three to four
times week-weak radium prepara-
tions were applied to the temples for
two to three days, when the spasms
ceased. In a case also of presumptive
inability of motion, caused by nervous
debility, radium effected a complete
cure within three days-probably, how
ever, through suggestion. In acute
facial paralysis Of entirely new origin
radium effected cure in one day.
Sam pies of weak radio-activity are
now rather inexpensive, so that other
physicians are enabled to verify these
results.

WHEN you come to look the
election returns over it isn't at all
discouraging even to the democrat
ic candidates who were defeated.
Hoch, the republican candidate for
governor, carried the county by 1914.
This shows the republican strength
in the county. The highest repub-
lican majority on the county ticket
is 10 and the average republican
majority on the county ticket was
90. Every candidate on the demo-
cratic county ticket ran much ahead
of the state ticket. The figures
speak well for the democratic can
didates. 1t shows that while they
belong to a minority party they
were strong enough to gain votes
from the opposition.

all his admissions of his shortcomings
while state treasurer proves con-
clusively that the people of the state

knowing that he Is an improper man

small place but what was demonstrate
ed here is a fair example of what hap
pened all over the state. Before
election it was hardly possible to find q
republican of any prominence who
would not admit that all that was said
of Kelly was true and yet only one
prominent republican in the township
voted against him. This man deserves
credit for voting as he talked, he was
brave enough to be honest with him
self and do what he believed to be right.
but where you found one republican of
this kind you found 100 who were afraid
to scratch their ticket
But the people of the great state of
Kansas have spoken; we hope they will

wipe the blot off the fair name of

suffer. It's nice for the hooters but
it's hard on the man who pays the

Occasionally some we'll disposed per-
son. speaking of some worthy cause-a
college, a hospital or reform-says:
IF only had million would enjoy

gives nothing.
Giving ought not to be confined to
the rich; it is as necessary to moral
growth as exercise is to the body.
Selfishness leads one to spend money
on himself-stinginess leads one to re-
fuse to spend even for himself, while
generosity leads one TO share his means
with benevolences which appeal to him.
I here are few who do not know the
pleasure to be derived from giving to
members of the family and to friends.
The satisfaction is scarcely less when
the gift is to unknown recipients who
come within the influence of some
educational Or charitable institution.
