allotted to the states.
1t is generally admitted that if the

SOUTHERN IMMIGRATION.

The New York Tribune is thrown
into state of amazement by the dis
covery that there are more things in
heaven and earth than are dreamt of
in its philosophy. 1t says:
The vigorous opposition to immi-
grants manifested the other day by
the Farmers Union Of Georgia, in
session at Atlanta, revealed several
curious ideas about immigrants and
progress. According to report res
olution was unanimously passed CEN
surlng those who seek to send the
immigrant army marching through
Georgia. The Legislature was petit
toned to refuse funds to immigration
commissioners on the ground that
undesirable citizens would be brought
into the state; that they would crowd
the natives out of work by lowering
wages, and that any considerable in
hux of foreigners would seriously
lower the price of cotton by increas-
ing its production. Finally, the Ne
gro's work was generally praised,
while the Negro himself was exalted
above the Italians and Germans
The reason why these curious
ideas, are SO surprising to the Tri-
bune is that it has swallowed SO
greedily the campaign lies circulated
throughout the country by unscrupu

1t is about time to consider the

Smith and John Temple Graves, the
Associated Press and the transporta-
ton companies; each OF which had a
very dull ak to grind in raising a
great hullaballoo about the Afro
American, 1t is risking nothing to
assert that the Farmers Union ex-
presses the real sentiment of the
southern farmer That farmer knows
that he has the best farm laborer in
the world as we'll as the cheapest,
and also knows that every expert
ment in the way of replacing that la
borer, though it ran we'll for a while,
ended in total and disastrous fail
ure. The Alabama legislature, which
recently adjourned, took the same
view of the question as did the
Georgia farmers; and, in fact
throughout the south, there is great
opposition to having that section
made dumping ground for the filth
of Europe. =. ..~i' !-;-.

Age OF Massachusetts JUDGES.

The law of Massachusetts is being
expended with wisdom and reasonable
celebrity by a bench of seven judges
whose average age is 81 years In
fact it should be said that seldom, if
ever, has a judge been appointed as
young as 40; the age mentioned by DR..
Osler when mans best attainments in
life are achieved. At present two of
the judges, Morton and Hammond, are
on the threshold of 70; one, Chief JUS,
tice Knowlton, is 60; Judge Sheridan
is 63, Judge Braley is 81, Judge Loring
Sc, while Judge Rugg, the latest ap-
pointee, is the youngest, being 46. Still,
it should be said that the work is quite
evenly distributed, the seniors doing
their share with the juniors, and nc
high court in the country has better
reputation for having it's work so well
in hand or stands higher.

plains that Cooke was injured in a
