FRENCH ON IMMIGRATION
Favors a Bill to Keep Out Hitter
ate Glasses.

Washington, d. c., Feb. IA
A committee of manufacturers of
St. Louis was in Washington last
week to urge the creation of a
commission to consider and make
a report on the tariff schedules,
preparatory to general revision.
The committee declared that the
movement for tariff commission
was backed by the President, Sen
ator Beveridge and two million
voters, and that it came to Wash
ington to "force" Congress to
adopt the Beveridge tariff COM
mission bill. However, the COM
mittee will return to its respective
homes sadder but a wiser body.
A few hours in this city were
sufficient to convince most of them
that Congress was not to be
'forced". They have also dis
covered that the President does
not consider this an opportune
time for anything looking toward
tariff revision, but believes that
the wise policy to pursue is to have
the Republican party commit it.
self, in its national platform to
revision next year, and that
special session of Congress be
called for that purpose by the next
President in the spring of 1909.
Timothy L. Woodruff, chairman
OF the Republican State Commit
tee of New York was a visitor at
the White House last week and
held two conferences with the
President. He declared him.
self to be perfectly we'll satisfied
with the political situation as it is
shaping itself"
| Cratory ran riot last week when
the Presidents message was dis
cussed in all its phases in the
House of Representatives, and for
the first time this session almost
the entire membership listened to
the debate. Each speaker pro-
claimed his views with vehemence
and conviction and it was easily
seen that the message has thor
oughly stirred members of Con
gress.
The committee on immigration
and naturalization of the House of
Representative is now wrestling
with the proposition of framing a
drastic immigration law. The bill
before the committee was introduced
by Representative Gardner, OF Mass.
and is being strongly supported by
the two other leading members Of
the committee. Representatives
Howell, of New Jersey, and French
of Idaho. 1t is proposed in the Gard
ner bill to prescribe an educational
test or qualification which shall be
met successfully by every foreigner
before gaining admission to theUnited
States. The Trans Atlantic and Pa
cific steamship companies are very
strongly opposed to the bill because
its passage would cut down their
revenue from the immigrant trade.
The representatives from the large
cities are opposed to the bill, as are
the factory and coal mining interests
of the east. Speaker Cannon is also
very strongly opposed to the bill, or
III fact to any kind Of immigration
legislation. A law proposed by this
bill would do much to cut down tie
immigration to this country of Jap
anese, Greeks, Cicilians, and other
people from the Mediterranean
countries. On the other hand, Ger

PROTECTION FOR DEPosIroRs.
Postal Savings Banks Offer a Salts
factory Measure Of Protection.

Postal Savings Banks Offer a Salts
factory Measure Of Protection.
Mr.. Bryan's scheme for the protec-
ton of depositors is to make solvent
and prudently managed banks pay the
losses of the insolvent and imprudently
managed: 1t is plan to make every
bank go security for every other bank,
and it may well be questioned if a law
imposing such an obligation without
the consent of the person charged
would be sustained by the courts. +.
Mr.. Taft, discussing this subject, said
that he favored postal savings banks as
a protection for deposltors rather than
the Brya ms mcfheoecmfwyp cmfwyp
the Bryan scheme of enforced liability.
The distinct advantage of the postal
savings bank proposition is that 1t
would provide for direct government
responsibility. The depositors would
be guaranteed against loss by the
government, because the banks would
be government Institutions. There
would be no possibility of loss, and no
injustice would be inflicted upon other
banks like that to which they would
be subjected under the Bryan scheme,
If they We're compelled to pay losses
incurred by banks over which they
had no control.
Postal savings banks in other coun.
tries have given great satisfaction, and
there is no question that they would
be conducted as safely and in every
other way as satisfactorily in the Unit,
ed States. The government be
ing the banker, would properly be
charged with responsibility to the de
positors and others doing business
with it.
On the other hand, the State has nc
more authority to make a banker re
sponsible for the debts of another
banker than 1t has to impose Xix,
responsibility upon merchant for the
debts OF other merchants. Surety is {
matter Of voluntary contract, and til,
essential element in any financial oh
| legation is consent ON the part of tn,
person TO be charged. To force 1
banker to insure the payment of tn,
debts of another banker is to impose
upon him an obligation against hi;
will, which would be manifestly un
just.-Denver Republican.

Labor needs capital to secure the best
production, while capital needs labor in
producing anything. The share of each
laborer in the joint product is affected
not exactly, but in a general way, by
the amount Of capital In use as com
pared with the number OF those who
labor The more capital in use the
more work there is TO do, aud the more
work there is to do the more laborers
are needed. The greater the need for
laborers the better their pay per man
Manifestly, it is in the direct interest
of the laborer that capital shall in
crease faster than the number of those
who work. Everything which legiti-
mately tends to increase the accumu-
lation of wealth and its use for pro-
duction will give each laborcr a larger
share in the joint result OF capital and
