immigration Bill

Unless Speaker Cannon consents to
allow the immigration bill to come up IN
the House at this session there will be a
Republican caucus early next week to
take action on the matter Representa-
tive Gardner Of Massachusetts,, who is
much interested in the subject has pro
cured the signatures of fifty Republicans
to call for caucus to consider the ques-
ton. He contends that a majority OF
the Republicans are in favor Of the bill
and will pass resolution at the caucus
demanding special rule for the consid-
Grafton of the immigration bill. In view
of this fact, it is possible that the speaker
will allow the bill to be taken up.

Gratitude Of Moorish Jews

Ambassador Henry White has re-
ceived the following letter from the
Grand Rabbin at Tangers in acknowl-
edgment of his service to the Jewish
cause at the Algeciras conference:
''Tangier, the 23d April 1906.
'Your Excellency: With deep sense
of gratitude, it is my pleasant duty to
express to you my warmest thanks for
your intervention in the name of your
government, at the sitting of the Alge-
ciers conference on April I'd last, in ia
vor of the Jews in Morocco.
Gas representative Of the leading
Jewish community in Morocco, am sure
I am faithfully interpreting the senti-
ments of every one of my co-religionists
in this country by requesting you to be
good enough to convey to President
Roosevelt and the American government
the expression of our grateful feelings
for their noble and generous intervention
on our behalf I pray God to send his
blessings on the liberal American ma
ton, the champion Of justice and the
supporter of the weak and the oppressed.
May she have unending prosperity and
be always great at the vanguard OF ma
tions for the welfare Of humanity. 1

land were privy to the offense. This
tendency is lessening as our members in
crease. and as our people are proving
their capacity for quick assimilation with
their fellow citizens, yet, nevertheless,
this is the natural sequence of the habit
of centuries. Perhaps, however, it is not
an unmixed evil, for it individualizes our
responsibility and compels us to be more
alert. the more prudent, the more jeal-
ous of our good name, and emphasizes
the solemn responsibility which rests
upon each one Of us.

GREENE AND GATNOR CONVICTED.
The conviction of Greene and Gaynor
for frauds on the government in Savan.
nah harbor is another sign that graft,
however extensive and temporarily sue
cessful, has become Improbable, and
that with persistent enforcement the
law can make very hard the way of
the transgressor, even though he be rich,
of high social position and aided by in
fluential friends. The persistent prose-
cution of these wealthy contractors who
by the connivance of the regular army
officer in charge of the hsrbor work
were able to defraud the government Of
hundreds of thousands of dollars is
worthy of all commentator. They
have been enabled by legal TECHNICAL
! ties and the employment of their wealth
in this country and in Canada to stave
Off conviction year after year, until their
partner in graft, Captain Carter, after
almost interminable delay, had been
convicted and served out his richly mer-
tied term in the penitentiary.
There was time when the tactics Of
these now convicted grating contract
Ors might have saved them, when public
authority might have given over the
pursuit in sheer WEAKNESS and disgust,
when the public might more easily have
! forgotten. But that time has passed
by. The public attitude toward graft
ers of high or low degree has changed.
A time, fortunately, has come when
they are to be relentlessly pursued with
all the power of the government and
public opinion until the stolen goods are
recovered and their fortunes exhausted
behind prison bars, where they belong.

AS long as the navy had to depend upon
private manufacturers for modern guns,
the cost was excessive. and relief was
secured only by establishing great
ordnance plant directly owned and oper-
ated by the government. Doubtless the
private contractors were stirred to ex-
treme energy and economy because the
building of the twin battleships Con-
necticut and Louisiana was to be test
Of the two methods, so that the credit
Of what they accomplished is to be
credited in no small part to government
competition.

Extensive westward Movement Of the

The decision Of western railways to

eigners who arc pouring into the country

and prefer to become 80 here, Those who
stay in cities usually do so because they
get stranded there. Another big class tina,
will take advantage Of the rates will be
composed of the hons OF prosperous middle
western farmers, Glie fathers have made
their fortunes by stalking up" new land
and holding it while it grew in value and
the sons are ambitious to do likewise
Many land owners also will sell out and
go west to buy more and cheaper acres
There isn't so much good soil to be got
almost for the mere asking as there was q
quarter century ago. The middle west,
once the promised land OF the homcseckor.
is now pretty well settled There is still a
great deal of such soll,- however There is
still some Of 1t in as old states as Mis-.
souri, aud Arkansas There is some in
western Kansas and western Nebraska.
But most of IL is in the northwest and
southwest; and for these sections a ma
1ority OF the hCmeseekers Will buy tickets.
A large part OF them will settle in Texas
where there are many thousands Of fertile
and untitled acres. Another large part will
settle In Minnesota the Dakotas. Oregon
and Washington. Many others will he in
duced to follow former neghbors to the
Canadian northwest.
Land hunger has long been one OF the
strong appetites of men. 1t has done more
to populate the extensive territory OF the
United States than any other force. 1t has
been the chief cause OF many foreigners
coming here and has been the sole cause
Of most fasteners moving west and Of
most westerners moving farther west
That It is more potent sometimes than
even love of country is shown not only by
the numerous foreigners who have come
to America but by the many Americans
who are going to Canada. Most men VINO

those who have some want more
Land hunger will continue to send forth
trainloads Of homeseekers every year, IN
I'll all the cultivable soil on the continent is
become possible to get the intensive system
of farming widely substituted for the ex-
tensive system. Men enjoy the ownership
Of land as well as its produces. and as long
as they can become owners Of many acres
will not try to see how much they can grow

MARK 1T DOWN.

At the meeting of the newly elected
republican city committee, at which the
party management was formally trans
ferred from the so-called "old machine"
to the new Fontanelle machine, report
was read from the treasurer stating
that there was in his hands the sum Of
$1,000, subject to requisitiOn by his
successor, inasmuch as all debts were
paid.
What better tribute could be had to
the efficiency and economy Of the out
going party managers? 1t is a well
known rule of politics that campaign
funds are for the purpose OF being spent
rather than of being transmitted by in
heritance, and there were many ways
in which this money could have been
spent legitimately; The last lime the
Fontanelle machine had control of the
party committee in this county, although
it had had more money poured into it to
conduct the primary election than ever
before vhen it came TO turn over there
was nothing left but a big bunch of
recklessly incurred unpaid obligations
to load down the campaign of the sue
cessful ticket
The habit has become so confirmed
with the 'antis" to refer TO their oppo-
nents as grafters and leg-pullers, and
other choice names rejecting upon
their integrity that it must be quite a
revelation to them to find balance in
the treasury at their disposal-sOme-
thing completely contrary to their own
practice and precedent

when I vote, put on my best clothes
and my top hat, go to the polls, salute
the officers, take off my hat and cast my
ballot" Such as told BY Andrew d. White
IN his autobiography was the declaration
OF Prof. Este-von Fuertes, a scientist from
Porto Rico, once on the faculty OF Cornell
university. Drawn to the United States by
an ardent love Of liberty, the ordinances
Of her temple were In his view too sacred
TO be participated I'm otherwise than with
a reverence and dignity akin TO that which
characterizes the behavior of the Chris
tan at the holy communion. Such a con-
ception as this OF the true nobility attach
ing TO the exercise of the franchise, II Il
should take root i'm the minds OF the people,
would do not a little to purify our cleo
tons and reduce the number Of ballots
cast for unworthy candidates or un-Amer-
lean policies. Prof. Fuertes held up an
ideal line Of behavior for voters, the spirit
Of which might we'll be generally cult-
waited.
