Potomac Valley Needs Immigrants

The immigration commissioner at Bos-
ton says that immigration from Europe is
being divided between the United States,
Canada and the Argentine Republic. TIC
the peasant or artisan of Europe the
United States is not now the only land
Of promise. The great undeveloped
neighbor on our north is encouraging
immigration and the booming republic of
the far south holds out inducements for
workers from the old and crowded coun-
tries of Europe
immigration to the United States has
been of two kinds-desirable and unde-
sirable. In former years the desirable pre-
ponderated-Iish, German, Scotch. some
English-people very like the older stock
of the country and people who very large
ly went into the fields where opportunity
was broadcast and where the country most
needed and still needs help. In later
years much Of the immigration has not
been SO satisfactory. Immigrants have
not amalgamated well with the native
stock, have huddled in tenements in over
crowded cities, have had a low standard
of living, have looked on their residence
here as temporary and have sent back
their savings-a large part of their earn
ings-to their home country.
This character of immigration is not
needed in the United States. Immigrants
with the pioneer instinct are needed.
There is room and welcome for men who
will take up land and cultivate 1t after
European intensive methods, who will
take up new land and put it under the
pillow, or who will take up the old land
that has grown up in woods and brush
and restore il to cultivation and fertility
There is golden opportunity for indus
trious immigrants in the Potomac valley.
Maryland and Virginia need them. The
valleys Of the Patuxent and the Kappa
hammock need them, but close to the
doors Of the National Capital in the
lower river country there is an empire
of old land gone to waste or not titled
within a quarter Of its capacity.

proof of inaccuracy.
Steadily 1t becomes evident that the Chi
nese revolution Is q wen organized move
ment. perhaps the result Of years OF prep.
aration. This Is borne out by the fact
that. while centered at Hankow, the dis
turbance prevails over a very wide area,
governmental authority having been over
thrown in several provinces simultaneous
ly. Furthermore, there is apparently a
general agreement On the part Of the rev.
olutionists to respect foreign persons and
property. This argues a shrewd leader
ship. doubtless based upon an accurate
knowledge of the policies of the powers
with respect to Chinese affairs. Obvious
1y the men behind this revolt have trav-
eled far beyond their own land. Thus
there is no likeness between the present
effort to overturn the Manchu government
and the Boxer rebellion, which was al
most altogether directed against the for
eign jewellers within the empire.
One particularly gruesome story comes
from China at this time, telling of a mas
were slain. the victims being selected by
pronunciation tests to separate the Chi
nese from the members Of the hated rul-
ing race. However true this may be. it
suggests the intensity of the anti Manchu
feeling which is at the root of the present
disturbance. If this is really a war be-
tween Manchu and Chinaman the former
can hardly hope to win, for he Is out
numbered Overwhelmingly by the hereto
fore subject race

souvenirs" of an Accident

1t Is a ghoulish story that comes from
Macon telling that when Eugene Ely,
aviator. fell to his death people, morbid
mad. struggled with each other for pos
session OF relics of the accident. In the
Geographic account these ghastly relics
are called souvenirs. The use of the
word souvenir is justified in a way
because II means remembrance or
keepsake" but 1t has generally come
TO mean a keepsake Of some happy even,
and not reminder of an event that
should make men shudder and women
faint.
1t is told in the press accounts that
men fought for possession of things worn
by the fallen aviator. even before life
was extinct Such displays make one
understand how thin the veneer of civil.
zaton is in some cases, and how close
to the surface british savagery is in
many men.
The mob spirit appears to Turk in near
ly every crowd and requires only a CRY
or word or an act to call 1t into play.

China's Rebellion.

The Chinese situation grows more seri-
Gus daily. or. rather. its seriousness is
more clearly revealed from day to day
by the dispatches. In all probability the
true state of affairs has not yet been dis
closed, owing TO the natural difficulties of
communication and the rigidity with
which the government is censoring news
reports. One consequence of this is that
sxaggerations doubtless appear, and 1t is
well to receive with a measure Of reserve

Sugar and Water.

A suit is in court in New JERSEY
brought by preferred stockholders of the
National Sugar Refining Company of that
state, TO compel the cancellation of 30
10000 worth of common stock obtained
by the president of the company for the
late Henry o. Havemeyer. II appears.
from the examination of witnesses. that
this stock represented promoters fee ="
and stood as capitalization Of the posi-
Bile earning power of the companies that
were consolidated in the merger which
created the National company This is
an interesting disclosure of transforming
methods. The public has a stake in such
proceedings, for 1t Is expected to pay
prices for commodities and services in
relation to capitalization. Take for an ex-
ample the price OF sugar, which is now
higher than 1t has been for years. and
has still a tendency to rise. The pur-
chaser of every pound of sugar is really
paying tribute to that promoters fee"
which was paid to the late Mr.. Have
meyer and certain associates for their
influence in effecting the combination.
This is the most Objectionable kind of
water" 1t represents no real value, no
substantial investment Probably $500, 900

ARTICLE
The beneficent Effects Of the Catholic
Church Upon Civilization

Is a remarkable presentation Of
the work of one of the oldest
and most powerful institutions
in the history of the world by
one of the first citizens of Amer
lea.
This article by Cardinal Glib
bons is published over his sig
nature in the 1911 edition of the
New Encyclopedia Americana.
That the head of the Catholic
Church in America has written
on this highly important sub
ject affords evidence that Fred
erick Converse Beach (editor of
the Scientific American and
editor-in-chief of the Encyclo-
pedia Americana) and his asso-
ciate editors have provided with
equal thoroughness and fairness
for the treatment of all sub
jects in theEncyclopedia Ameri-
cana.

The "ripeners," who paint the green
orange and dress the unripe banana with
a deceptive yellow, may soon be without
occupation. More scientific methods of
shipment by expeditions routes have
made ii less necessary to pluck fruits
of course, the process of sweating them
into a semblance of ripeness is inherently
deceptive. Also fruits preserved with ben
zoate of soda may before long be forbid

New York City Hall Marriages.
From the New York Herald.

from the new 1ork deral0.
Justice Greenbaum declares that near
ly all the couples who apply to his court
for legal separation were married in the
city hail.
OF course. happy marriages have been
made in the city hall as well as in
heaven. but nevertheless there is more
than a grain of truth in the judicial ut
terance, and food for solemn speculation
as well.
Serious-minded men and women who
enter into the matrimonial state soberly
and advisedly are far more likely to have
the ceremony performed at home or In
a church than in the city hall. This is
not because the average New York al
derman is not competent to tie the knot
sufficiently tight to withstand the Ordi-
nary wear and tear of welded life, but
because the religious form is more i'm
presSive and fitting in feminine eyes.
Few women would really like to be mar
ried in the aldermanic chamber and none
would care to be buried from there.
But there will always be business for
the city fathers in the line of knot tying,
for as long as the world lasts there will
be those who marry in haste to repent at
leisure.

"The Taylor Nursery"
The 2Oth Century
Baby Bed.

The one baby bed that helps
care for the baby night and day.
With the baby in a Taylor Muir
sery" the mother can go to sleep
with the knowledge that the little
one is perfectly safe, and if nurs-
ing or other attention is required,
this can be done by the mother
sitting up in her own bed. Held
level at any desired height, The
Taylor Nursery" is free from at
tachment, which permits placing
it over the mothers bed, taking
NO extra space in the bedroom,
though it can be placed alongside
if desired. Being light and easily
moved in the daytime the Muir
sery may be placed in any part OF
the house or out on the porch.
and it folds into a compact bun
die, making it easy to ship, even
if you are going away only for a
dav or two.
Each Taylor Nursery is pro-
vided with a tufted cotton-felt
Mattress and Safety Hood, which
cannot be unfastened by baby,
and prevents crawling or falling
out when he awakens or left alone
to play.
All in all, it is the most con-
venient baby bed that has come
to our attention, and mothers are
invited to inspect it.
