washington, Nov. II.
The assistant commissioner general
OF immigration, Mr.. Larncr, has writ
ten letter to Gov. Hayward in re-
ply to the telegram the governor sent
to the officer at the Ellis Island sta
tlon relative to the holding up Of the
immigrants destined to South Caro-

The letter rccites the law to tho
governor, whereby all immigrants
about the legality Of whose entrance
there is any doub. whatever must be
detained until the matters are passed
upon by the final arbiters.
None of them will be deported
without being given hearing.
Only one case so far has been re-
fcrrcd to the Office of the commission
cr general here, this being that Of a
man who came alone who said he
wanted to go to South Carolina. The
Facts, therefore, for which Gov. Hey-
ward wired to New York are not
known here.
The commissioner general, Mr.. Sar-
gent, is in Honolulu.

The Herald AMI News, Of Newbci-
~, under the above caption gave an
account in its issue Of last week Of
the services Cf two gentlemen who
have been connected with the ma
chanical Gepartmcn! cf tha! paper,
c@@ q them e." Na>"!y half a ccn-
:''ry, and Tie ether fer nearly forty
years. These gentlemen arc Messrs.
II. M. Barscr and J. w. Wicker.
The Herald presents cuts of these
printers, and says. "it is record Of
long and faithful service, probably
ion~ar than any other printers in
the State OIL the same paper, who are
not owners OF part owners of the pa
pc". They are probably not as mod
ern in some of their methods AS some
Of the~ printers today, and we have
seen more rapid workmen, but it can
be said to their credit that they arc
always here, and always willing to do
thcir part of the work aud to do it
faithfully and carncstly.'
We arc glad our cont ntemparary has
Published these facts end given
sketches cf the lives of these men.
They deserve il. and besides it is to
hc hoped that their example will be
helpful, not only 10 printers. but to
r.hc"% vile arc constantly changing
from one Ni&cc 10 another. Thc.2 ore
many printers, and others too who
r'i!ht havp filled EAr moro rcmuncra-
tive pcsilicns Lad il net been for the
fact that they have changed places
50 often. Constantly Cn the outlook
Tor something better somewhere else
they have vet been able to become
enough interested in their work to
make themselves indispensable to it,
and so they changed around from
place to place. and are no better off
than they we're when they began their
career.
Another reason why we are glad
that The Herald and News has direct
cd attention to the faithful services
of these men is because of the fact
that too often the work of the men
in the mechanical department of the
newspaper is not as much thought of
and appreciated as it should be. The
public does not know how much rests
upon their shoulders and to what
extent it is indebted to them for the
regular and prompt appearance Of
the paper which they read, and how
largely they are depende dupon for
its neatness and attractiveness. But
where is the editor and publisher
who has not learned to appreciate the
services Of the faithful men who are
ready to stand by him, when occasion
demands it, night and day until the
paper reaches the mails7 We have
thought that some Of the most faith
ful men that we have ever met were
printers, and little does the general
public know Of their fidelity, often
passing them with the least consider
alton, feeling that they were only
printers. Of course, we have met the
other kind also, but they are not all
confined to these who are CONNECTED
with the art preservative. Some of
the sorriest men we have ever known
we're not printers.-Greenwood Jour-

Judge Lindsey's s Triumph in Denver.

Judge Lindsey's Triumph in Denver.
"You hear in Denver that the trou-
BILE with Ben Lindsey is that lle
Quits into everything,'' writes Lin
coin Steffens, in the December Nc
Clurc's. And he goes on to show
why il is that the "just Judge" has
to "butt in'; has to antagonizc the
political machine and the business
interests back of the machine in or.
der to solve the problems Of the chill
drcn. He tells how the Judge visited
back alleys at night, hung around
cheap theaters, and visited the tend
erloin and the slums in order to get
at the causes Of criminaIity in chill
ren. Judge Lindsey found, among
other things, that Denver saloons had
wine-rooms, and that not only boys,
but girls, were allowed in them and
ruined. He tried to get the Police
Board to enforce the law that for
bade these places to women; and he
discovered then that he was cup
against the wealthy brewing inter-
ests Of Denver and was "spoiling
Business.
The account OF the Judges fight
against the winc-rooms; Of the heroic
measures he took to provide deten-
ton school for his child criminals;
the remarkable saenc in which his
"bad" children voluntarily came and
testified before municipal confer
cncc, called to consider their case;
and the stirring victory by which the
Judge was reelected in defiance Of
the powers Of graft, are told in re-
markably graphic, incisive way and
complete Mr.. Stcffcns' sympathetic
and vigorous portraiturc Of one Of
the live figures in our public affairs.

STRIKE OF FARMERS
REMARKABLE MOVEMENT SEIZED.
uLEo TO BEGIN ON THE
FIRST or MARCH.

Indianapolis, Feb. 24.--A strike Of
the 1000 farmers composing the
American Society of Equity, an or
ganization with headquarters in In
dianapolis, has been called for March
/. Everyone who responds will agree
not to market agricultural products ex-
cept at prices that have been decreed
as equitable by the officials of the or
ganiZatiOn.
The response that is being made Is
said to be causing considerable con
cern TO market men and shippers. A
representative of a recognized au-
thority in the wheat trade was here
during the day trying to ascertain
what response the call is receiving.
The organization claims that produc-
ers ought 10 get at least 81 per bushel
for wheat Irrespective of the size OF
the crop. II is claimed that the price
Of any agricultural commodity can be
! controlled by regulating the market
! ing. Kansas and Minnesota are being
canvassed. II is claimed that If these
states hold out for the higher prices
the trick will be turned, as Minnesota
raises a large percentage of the spring
wheat crop and Kansas raises a con
trolling percentage OF the winter
wheat croD

MANY MINERS KILLED
FATAL EXPLOSION OF GAS IN
THE MAITLAND MINE AT
WALsENBURG, COLO.

Waissnburg, Colo, Feb. 20.--An ex'
plesion in the Victor Fuel company's
Maitland mine during the day caused
the death of at least thirteen miners
and perhaps sixteen. Following is a
list Of the dead so far as known;
Archie Miller, Billy Morgan, James
W. Titters, Battista Eobera, Corona
Costa, Joe Costa and Nick Yockibetz
Shortly before O'Clock g. m. there
was an explosion in that part of the
Maitland known as the Sunshine
which caused the earth to tremble for
miles around. Soon after a man ran
out and reported the mine was on fire
The explosion caused the fall OF a
mass of rock from the roof and until
this is cleared away it will not be
known definitely just how many more
are in the mine.
The explosion was caused by gas
and the deaths were caused by the gas
and afterdamp. 1t is supposed the eX,
plosion occurred as the result OF open
lamps In use, as most of the men in
that part of the mine used open lamps
