THE SINISTER STATE.

The day that congress passes the law
recommended by the Roosevelt ad-
ministration requiring federal charters
for corporations, there will be frost In
New Jersey. The revenues OF that
state will suffer a serious setback when
one of it's most prolific sources is dam
med at the fountain head. At the close
of the last fiscal year there was sur
plus in the treasury Of $2,940.91S. The
income of the state for that year was
$4,000, 900 Of which s3,351,000 was de-
in the state On this basis New Jer-
sew gets enough from corporations an
nually to pay all the expenses of the
state government and to distribute
surplus of 100000 among her thrift
ty sons.
1t has paid, and is paying, New Jer-
sey to act as an incubator for corpor-
ations. Doubtless the financial adj
vantage to be gained induced the lib
crafty Of it's corporation laws 1t has
not paid other states in the same ra-
ito, however. Almost every corpora
ton created in evasion Of the laws has
hurried to New Jersey to be born. The
Northern Securities Company formed
to operate in defiance of the laws of
the states in which it was to do busi-
ness, was incorporated under New Jer-
sey laws. That state has been a lying
in hospital for illegitimate incorpora-
lions and like similar institutions has
been we'll paid for it's service and shell
ter.
If this has brought money to the
state of New Jersey it has also carried,
contempt There is nothing great abou:
New Jersey. Her legislators are not
strong in national councils, her posi-
ton in the sisterhood Of states not
prominent. Her title Of Mother OF
Corporations is not an honorable one.
Her lax laws made for revenue only
have filled her treasury but bank
rupted her reputation.

THE COMING HEPBURN BILL.

III Il mans reading We're confined to
one class Of newspapers he would grow
enthusiastic over the railroad rate
measure which the correspondents now
promise will be introduced soon by
Mr.. Hepburn. a congressman from
Iowa. 1t Is confidently claimed by
these correspondents in Washington
where they ought to know that this
bill of Mr.. Hepburns will be the only
work while you sleep" and sure cure"
remedy for the evils that beset us in
our railroad rate problem. If there
could be any doubt about the effective
ness of this promised bill of Mr.. Hep
burns before it's provisions are pub
licly known these same correspondents
have paved the way for accepting it's
promises on faith by the naive an
nouncement that ~. w. Blythe of Bur-
lington is an interested and constant
attendant upon the railroad rate hear
ings before the committee on interstate
commerce, of which Mr.. Hepburn Is
chairman. 1t is to be presumed that
If Mr.. Blythe is there every day and
any information should be needed, he
might give it were he to be asked, for
it and. certainly. Mr.. Blythe has a
great deal of expert knowledge OF
railroad affairs.
The only obstacle that could appear
to obstruct the rise Of Col. Hepburns
measure to popular favor is the habit,
so greatly despised in these same
newspaper circles. which some people
have of thinking that Mr.. Blythe mere
ly because he is employed at q large
salary by great railroad as general
political attorney, might give up In
formation favorable to railroad inter-
ests somewhat faster than he would
give out such information as would be
favorable to the public interest, now
being sought to be served by Presi-
dent Roosevelt. OF course, If Mr..
Blythe should give out information on
one side faster than he gave out that
on another any bill based upon his adj
vice could only be the result OF a one
sided argument. Then, if it were true
that Mr.. Hepburn should be at all in
duenced by Mr.. Blythe. they both COM
ing from Iowa. it might follow that
the Hepburn bill would contain pur-
poses based upon information unevenly
presented by Mr.. Blythe.
OF course, If Mr.. Hepburn's political
career in Iowa has never brought him
into such personal relationship as to
be very greatly Influenced by Mr..
Blythe, or If Mr.. Blythe's purpose in
Washington is to advocate the rights
and interests Of the people, whom he
hopes will some day elect him to the
United States senate, rather than of
the railroads that pay him his salary a
public sentiment that would not accept
the Hepburn bill upon all its promises
would be very inconsistent public
sentiment inded. 1t is regrettable, to
many newspapers and correspondents,
that there should be such public SEN
timent as to raise questions about these
things but consistency of this kind
seems as seldom found in politics as
in statesmen.

Dr. Abbott,a MEneroy."

A correspondent Of the New York
Sun SAYS: 1 was forced twenty years
ago, to quit the Congregational church
for uttering the very sentiments that
today DR.. Abbott is uttering with i'm
punity. Either that church is now
utterly honey-combed with so-called
infidelity and scepticism, or DR.. Abb
bolts social position is so strong that
the church dares not depose him.
DIR. Abbott errs. in my opinion. In
seeking his God inside the universe.
The universe has no inside our OUT
side. The universe is infinite. 1nfinity
has no circumference or boundary God
is everywhere. because the universe
is everywhere. God and the universe
are one. God is the principal of logic

nomena of nature. God is not, there

God is q process, principle. power.
God is not energy. God is the operative
principle of energy. In short God Is

IMMIGRATION UNDER THE NEW Law

Commissioner General Sargent has
issued his report dealing with foreign
immigration under the new law enact
ed last spring. His report is more
hopeful than the one made last year
in that he finds an improvement in tie
class of immigrants received. He calls
attention to the seriousness of the pres
ent immigration from Italy and Austria.
AS class not readily assimilable
and prone to form foreign COLONIES" IN
the greater cities, especially of the
seaboard, and to perpetuate criminal
secret societies, and avoid Americana
cation. His idea Is to bar these from
the cities and force them into the
country and smaller cities where their
isolation from each other would hasten
the growth of their citizenship. Tae
good sense of this suggestion is patent
to every one at all familiar with the
subject. The Italian in the small city
or in the country, cut off from his own
people and language, rapidly adapts
himself to the new conditions. A coll
ony Of a dozen families will flock to-
gether and maintain the customs and
language Of their nativity to the third
generation.
The year 100000 showed a moderate
decrease in the total of admissions. In
19O2-'O3 S57,o46 immigrants were land
ed. But last year only 812,S70 apl'li-
cants passed under the new law. The
volume OF immigration from Italy and
Sicily fell off most. The decrease from
the kingdom of Italy was 37,326-nearly
equal to the years total decrease. From
Austria Hungary there was a falling
off in arrivals Of 2S,SS5. Italy and AIS
tria- Hungary last year contributed
436,733 i1nmigrants-or over half the
total. For 100000 they contributed
370,452-or a little over As per cent.
Arrivals from Russia and Finland
show slight increase-145,141 this
year, against 136,o93 last year. For
some reason by no means evident the
has been sensibly checked. Only 49,
1853 Swedes came here in 10000, as
against 46,O2S in 1902-'O3. immigration
from England increased about 33 per
cent-from 26,219 to SS.626. From
Scotland and France there were slight
gains, while from Japan. Roumania,
and Greece arrivals were fewer. .shis
greater distribution of the volume of
immigration is considered by Mr.. s;ar-
gent hopeful sign, for smaller acces-
sions from various nationalities are far
more easily assimilated than great
masses from one or two particular
countries Moreover, it has been found
thru experience that newcomers from
Italy and Austria-Hungary are espec-
tally addicted to colony life and can
not be as readily dispersed as other
races from the chief centers of popu-
lation.
Another excellent effect of the new
law is to be noted Immigrants admit
ted now bring more ready money with
them, and are far less likely to become
public charges The s5IO46 arriving
in 19O2-'0s had s16,117.513. The s12,-
$40 who came in in 10000 had $780,
s94,Ss3. The gain of 80 per cent in
ready cash, while the volume of ir1mt-
grafton decreased per cent, tes:ifies
plainly to the greater desirability Of
