coNpITIoN oF MAIN srREET.

Team travelling on Main street has
been, and is, attended by considerable
danger, and serious accidents have been
averted only by the extra preeaution
taken by drivers. The trouble Il due
to the piling up Of snow beside the cleo
trio railroad track. After each storm Il
has been the practice Of the trolley com
.pany to sweep the snow to one side and
there leave it To constitute hindrance
and a menace, together with the aceu
mutations from the sidewalks. Through
out the winter the track has formed a
depression from one to two feet below
the surface Of the remainder of the
street This left opportunity for many
accidents if the greatest care was nos
exercised in driving, as one could easily
imagine, with one runner of the sleigh
Slowing into the depression and the other
runner balancing in the air. Another
winter such a state 81 affairs should not
be tolerated by tho city. The electric
railroad should be compelled to remove
all the snow which II sweeps from its
track, The Justice Of this requirement
will appeal even to the railroad.
There il, moreover present duty on
section Of the street which should be
attended to, that is to remove these ac.
cumulations that are now in the form
oil ice. Dangerous as they were in the
form Of high banks Of snow, they are
doubIy dangerous now on account Of the
slippery surface. The west side Of Main
street is in a slovenly state. The height of
the buildings has prevented the action
Of the sun TO a great extent on that
half of the street, and the rains have
left a rounding mound Of ice, to balance
on which takes skillful driving. Well,
directed use o. the axe will lessen the
abruptness of the fall into the car track,
and this should be attended TO at once,
before serious accident results. II Is
no more than fair that the railway com
pany assist in undoing an evil for which
its careless action earlier in the winter
is partially responsible And BY the
time that the snow Of another winter
begin to fall the strict requirement that
the company remove all the snow which
it gouges out of the street should be
imposed,

Russian church Architecture.


Nothing shows more clearly how
far from the main stream of Europe
the currents Of Russian life have
flowed than the architecture Of the
Russian churches. The new church
Of the Redeemer, erected in memory
Of the grandfather of the present car,
which was dedicated by the car In st.
Petersburg few weeks ago. Is a good
example Of the prevailing Russian
style. 1t Il not Gothic, nor Greek, nor
Roman. nor yet Renaissance. The in
nuences which have fixed the Russian
church architecture are Asiatic rather
than European. remarks the Youths
Companion. The predominating arches
are Indian rather than Roman, and
the domes, with their bulging sides.
come from Asia and the non-C Christian
races. Russia itself was In closer re-
lations with Asia than with Europe
till Peter the Great turned the face Of
the empire westward and began the
recreating Of a semi-savage nation into
. European power by building his new
capital In close contact by sea with
the western world. But the choice Of
tho oriental type of architecture for SO
splendid church as that recently ded-
icated proves that the influence of
Asia II still strong.

INCREASE OF
IMMIGRATION
SHOWN ~ ANNUAL REPORT or
the sEcReTARv or CON-
MERGE AND LABOR.
MOSTLY YOUNG PEOPLE
OVER ONE MILLION ADDED TO
POPULATION DURING THE
PAST YEAR.

Washington.-In his annual report
Oscar Straus. secretary Of commerce
and labor, devotes considerable atten-
tion to the immigration problem. The
report says In part:
The total number OF aliens admit
ted during the year was 1,2S5, ,349.
which exceeded that for the fiscal
year 1906 by 1874. .614. and that for the
fiscal year 1905 by 258. $50, being In.
creases Of seventeen and twenty five
per cent, respectively. During the
year 1904 aliens were rejected, an
increase over the reflections for the
fiscal year 1906 of 632. The total
number seeking admission in 1907.
therefore, was 1,298.413. an increase
over the total number applying in 1906
Of 185.246.
"A notable feature Of the immigra-
tion consists in the fact that of the
aliens admitted, 1,100,771 ranged in
in age from fourteen to forty-four
years, and 1884 were less than four
teen years Of age. leaving only 1924
who had reached or passed the age OF
forty.fve. AS to literacy. 1t 10 shown
that 343,402 or thirty per cent. of the
total number Of aliens admitted, were
illiterate. Concerning the financial
condition of the immigrants 873,923
exhibited less than $50 each-how
much more they had 1t Is impossible
to state-while 107,502 showed
amounts in excess of that sum, and
the total amount of money which was
exhibited by arriving aliens and
brought into the country was $25. $780,
1893. an average of almost 500 per per-
son. There has been q considerable
increase In the number of persons re-
jected because of insanity, contagious
diseases and convictions for crime.
The hospitals of this country afforded
relief during the year to 1883 aliens.
and warrants Of deportation were exc
cuted in the cases Of 955 on the ground
Of unlawful residence or because OF
having become public charges. and for
other causes. a hearing having been
granted In each case. The total num-
ber Of aliens actually returned to the
countries whence they came. there
fore. was 1869. which. compared with
the total number returned during the
year 1906 13.10S. shows an increase Of
951. or over seven per cent.
"In order to ascertain the net in
crease Of our population from year to
year by immigration 1t is necessary to
deduct from the figures above given
the number of aliens who have depart.
ed from the United States during the
fiscal year. as well as the number de-
ported and the number of naturalized
citizens who permanently left the
country during the same period. 1t
is estimated that about 10000 aliens
departed from the United States dur
ing the fiscal year. of which number
probably 100000 were of the non-im.
migrant alien class. thus reducing the
immigration for the year to about L..
075.000. From these figures is further
to be deducted the number of natural
lied citizens who during the year have
permanently left the country, as well
as the number who have been de.
ported"
