The lin Grow Law.

Strange as 1t may seem, the practical
working Of the Jim Grow law has been
more annoying to the white people than
to the colored There have been more
white people ordered around and made
Il to change their seats, sometimes with
out any apparent reason, than there have
been colored people,, THIS opinion Is not
only the result of inquiry, but peri
ence. # Tll writer recently boarded a q
car Iii Richmond, and, with full $knowl--.
edge Of the requirements OF the law,
took his seat 80 as not to violate i,
as he supposed. The car was not OF all
crowded H at the outside, there were not
and the white passenger appeared to be
safe within the legal limits. He had
been sitting moment when the young
conductor touched him on his shoulder
/ ana told him he would have to l1love.s
AS there up peared not the remotest occa-l
y sion for this disturbance of his quiet, i
was with X some sense n OF II Ind gnations
that he got up and moved to Q seat In
advance. ~ u I y5s III N 5g " III
We believe the principle A Of the law IS
sright-indee necessl ty-and that 1t has
In general result worked well, but the
enforcement OF 1t has been left to young!
men who sometimes have either arbt-33
trarily. ignorantly or carelessly dis
charged their duties SO as to mako them
selves ofllciously disngreeable. It Is fair
to, say that tho majority 81 the con-
sductors have been very polite and con-
ssiderate, but it would be very well u for
persons who are unnecessarily an and ca
priciously interfered with to report the
offender to the company.

An Immigration Hint

The Monthly Bulletin Of Investments,
issued by Fisk & Robinson. Of New York,
takes n somewhat novel, though alto
gcther practical. view of immigration.
1T recalls an old saying that a country's
subjects arc Its best assets, and adds
that 4 million OF healthy, able bodied
immigrants, even II uneducatod and pos
sessng nothing but their strength could
easily add 10000, 900 to the wealth OF
i the nation annually and bring ZIP their
children under conditions insurng q sat-
isfactory and patriotic class Of citizens.
Wealth is tho product Of labor and
every man who produces more than he
consumes adds to the wealth Of the ma
ton. In an undevelopcd land like ours
there is a constant and increasing de-
mand for labolers. What we need
says the Bulletin. fare Immigrants with
good, sound bodies, Compared with this.
