the railroads of Virginia. The commits
sioners point out that the State already
receives from the tax on ro6dways and

chise tax of 1 per cent on their gross
receipts a revenue Of S419.672 In addition
to this, II is estimated that the cities

extent Of $65S.59S per annum, and the
commissioners think this Is enough. an

time prevail" they say, I'VE are Of
opinion that a sound consideration Of Jus

duced passenger rate. They are also
compelled, by reason Of strlngency in
the money market, to use current earn
ings to make needful improvements and

to pay more taxes at this time, and we
feel sure that the decision of the cor

There was a regency during his youth,
and Il was not until nine years ago that
he was invested with full ruling powers.
When China had to be punished several

south and Foreign Immigration.

Attorney General Bonapartes recent
ruling in the Garcia case, that the States
could not encourage immigration by prom
ise Of employment, has occasioned a great
deal of discussion in the South where it
has been regarded as a blow at the plans
OF State immigration bureaus to encour-
age the coming OF desirable foreigners.
Some of the Southern papers have charged
that the provision Of the immigration law
construed in the Attorney Generals rul-
ing Is In contTavention Of an understand
ing by which Southern members Of Con-
gress supported the immigration bill
rushed through at the last session in order
to conciliate anti-Japanese sentiment on
the Pacific Coast, 1t is alleged that
Southern Senators were given TO under
stand that nothing contained in the bill
would interfere with the plans Of their
States for the promotion Of foreign I'M
migration. Such assurances were IN
dOubtedly given but 1t happens that the
provision on which the Attorney Generals
ruling is based has been a part OF the
immigration law for a number Of years.
so that there is no ground for allegation
OF breach Of faith in the adoption of the
existing measure. The provision referred
TO is that forbidding the importation of
immigrants under contract to perform la
Dor or under promise of employment, The
Attorney General holds that this inhibi-
ton applies to the State as well as to an
individual or corporation.
That this was well understood by
Southern Senators appears clearly enough
in the debates on the immigration bill.
when il was asserted by some Of them
that the contract labor provision would
prevent the promotion of immigration by
the States, at least to the extent of pro-
viding certain kinds OF labor for particu-
lar industries. Senator Simmons, of North
Carolina, however. took the position that
the new immigration bill would not "em-
barrass or injuriOusly affect the South in
its efforts TO solve its labor problem
through means Of the so-called South
Carolina method OF State promotion" Mr.
simmons thus summarized the powers Of
the State respecting immigration under
the new law.
There is left to the State the right to appoint
an agent TO send that agent to any foreign country
with fuli power TO advertise any and all induce
ments ard advantages the State has in truth and
III fact % offer TO TIE settler. He may set forth
labor conditions; be may set forth the scale of
wages: he may give positive assurance 70 the i'm
migrant that if he comes he win find employment
and find that employment Al a fixed and certain
wage. He can 90 further: he can using State
funds for that purpose, pay his transportation
penses BE can likewise pay his transportation back
