Mark Twain calls himself a pessi
mist, but this is by virtue of his Ii
Cenye as a hynoriSt. for if there is any
mau who deserves to be called an op-
timisi. Mark Twain Is the man. Now
that he is making his home more con-
tinuously in his native country than
he has done for many years. he Is TAX
ing prominent part in various phil
anthropic movements. all of which do
credit to his qualities Of head and
heart. One day we read of him pre-
siding over a meeting which expresses
sympathy for the Russian masses; the
next day occupying front seat at a
meeting called in behalf of the blind.
and the next day urging more generous
contributions to the Japanese famine
fund. The man who can do this has
no right to call himself a pcssimiSt.

carried Calais, but there is a different
story to tell this year and on Monday
the Republicans elected their candi-
date for mayor and five out of seven
aldermen. Usually. if given little
rope a Democratic administration can
be counted on to hang itself in one
term, but it seems that it took two in
Calais and now the city will be safely

An Immigration Bill.

The need of greater restrictions upon
immigration has been more and more
realized of late and various measures
have been proposed to stem the un-
wholesome tide of European refuse
which is mingled with the food of de-
sirable Immigrants. Congress has
result of the discussion the so-called
Dillingham; bill has been favorably re-
ported by the Senate committee on I'M
migration. The recommended MEAS
ure embodies a consolidation or merger
of several distinct proposals. Inc
amendments Of the present law pro-
yideC for in the bill are material ana
important as far az they so, but none
of the radical changes favored by some
Of the strong bodies advocating drastic
restriction finds place therein.
The head tax on incoming aliens is
raised from 81. the present f1Sure, TO 80.
Predetermined persons, and children
under IL when unaccompanied by par
ents or guardians. are added to the ex-
cluded classes The clauses excluding
nolyyamists and criminals are
strengthened, as are those imposing
penalties on steamship companies
guilty of importing certain members of
the excluded classes. There is a pro-
vision rather novel in character, the
product, doubtless. of the recently pub
lished facts in regard to the increasing
number of bird of passage" immi-
grants-that IS, of aliens who come
here Tor the busy seasons. accumulate
some money, and return to their native
country for the winter months, when
work in a number of industries is
slack" Steamship companies are re-
qlired by the bill to furnish lists of all
outgoing aliens.
In Il constructive way the bill seeks
to 10 something toward realizing the
desi6eratum for years earnestly urged
by the immigration bureau-better dis
tribution Of admitted aliens. To pre-
vent further congestion in the foreign
colonies" of large centers of population,
with the evils, industrial and social,
fion ing therefrom the bill provides for
the establishment of a bureau of in
formation to collect and furnish Data
concerning the opportunities and labor
the country. The House committee
may prepare and report a different i'm
migration bill. but leading congressman
are confident that a substantial meas
ure on the question will be passed at
the present session.

Another anniversary of the famous
ride of Paul Revere is close at hand.
and it Is Il matter of congratulation
that the patriotic people of Boston
have raised enough money to purchase
the old Revere homestead and preserve
Il as a landmark in the city which led
the way to American independence.
The ride OF Paul Revere is one of the
most romantic and thrilling incidents
in the opening days Of the Revolution.
Thanks to our great Maine poet. it is
an incident with which every American
is thoroughly familiar. The Revere
homestead will doubtless be patriotic
shrine to which scores of thousands
will turn their way through the years
to come.

Those who urge a safe and sane celc-
bration Of the glorious Fourth of July,
of which we have heard much about in
the past few years. have taken a prac-
tical step in San Francisco, where the
club women and the board of education
are organizing the pupils of the public
SCHOOLS Tor the purpose of having a
Fourth of July celebration this year
which will have more patriotism in it
and less of the elements of noise and
danger. There will be fireworks by
night ana a reasonable amount of noise
from bells and cannon by day. The
display Of nags, holding patriotic meet
ings with Speeches, songs and decIa-
nations. and the forming of a grand
parade. Of school children will be con-
every effort will be made to eliminate
the lawlessness and the general pande.
morium and bedlum which in mos
cities make Independence day an occa
sion OF horror and bloodshed. The Sar
Francisco i6ea is a good one and W,
hope ii will be successful. The agitatio,
for safer and saner celebration of tn
day has already borne fruit in some O
our eastern states. through more strin
gent laws as to the sale of toy nistols
giant crackers and explosives and as
result of aroused public sentimer,
though there is still abundant nrpor
turity for reform.

American Trade With Mexico.

Long strides have been made i'll our
trade with our sister republic of
Mexico during the past decade. In
the fiscal year 1S94-95 the United
States did business with Mexico to the
extent Of about $31 100000. In the
fiscal year 19O4-O5 the United States
did business with Mexico to the
extent of about s92,0OOOOO. almost
three times as much. These are the
official figures in a recent bulletin of
the department Of commerce and
Labor. In 19O3-O4 Mexico's purchases
fl ON us exceeded her sales to US by
about 5000, 900. Not so in the fiscal
year 190i-O5. Then Mexico's sales to
us exceeded her purchases from us by
