ACROSS THE BORDER.
Mirror of Events Transpirlng In the
 Nelghborlng Republic.

Mexican Herald: Owing to at- tacks on trains near Irapuato, Guanajuato, the Mexican Express company, has notified it's agents not to receive valuables for trans portation over the line between Guadalaiara and Irapuato. This affects the Amparo M. company, the Mololoa company, the Espada Nj. company and the Lnpita NJ. company. The Amparo company will either forward bars in special car with its own guard, as was done during the revolution of a year ago, or try the method of sending by steamer to San Fran cisco.
 Mexican Herald: A severe epi. demic of meningitis in the city has recently resulted in q number of deaths, most of the victims being children, although several cases are reported where adults have contracted the disease. The efforts of the physicians to combat the malady, are seriously handicapped by the lack of Flexner serum, which is regarded both as cure and a preventive. One prominent druggist stated yesterday that he had recently sold $200 worth of the serum, his entire stock, and that he doubted that he would be able to obtain a fresh supply for some time to come as cablegrams had been dispatched to London for a further consignment which would take some time to arrive.
 Mexican Herald The matter of organizing a corps of volunteers to accompany the president and his cabinet to whatever point it may be necessary to transfer the government, in the remote contin- gency that this is necessary, has been proposed by member of the Society of Federal Employees and will be discussed at the next gen eral meeting of that body. The suggestion was made in a speech delivered by Rafael Martinez, pre- sident of the society, at banquet of the organization at Xochimilco Sunday. It was proposed that an appeal be made to all those in government employ to enlist in such corps. In proposing the matter, MT. Martinez, who is a well known newspaper man now in the government employ, said: "The idea is patriotic and logical. It is nothing more than natural that citizens who now lend their services to the government, should accom- pany this government, which Is ot undoubted legitimacy, if that stern necessity should arise, to whatever place it may have to be changed

It would be a striking act of loyal ty, valor and complete devotion to duty"
 Mexican Herald: A committee of about forty members of the Tex. tile Workers union waited on the minister of gobernacion, Jesus Flo- res Magon, yesterday evening com plaining that the members of their organization were being discrimin- ated against by the factory owners of Guanajuato and Puebla, and stating that all union men would be dismissed. The men also brought to the notice of the minister the low scale of wages at present re. ceived. Mir. Flores Magon request. ed the deputation to furnish him with a letter giving specific in- stances of the alleged discrimina- tion, and a copy of the present wage scale, upon receipt of which he said he would look into the matter. The Industrial committee which is endeavoring to fix a standard wage for the textile workers of the republic will meet next Tuesday at the offices of the labor bureau, with the object of again going into the question of a sliding scale of pay for the various parts of the country. It is hoped that the final result will be reached by the beginning of the coming week, when it will be submitted to the workers committee for their final acceptance or refusal.
 Guadalaiara Times: Guadala- jara has been violently shaken by earthquakes this week. The first severe shock was felt at 6:30 We'd nesday morning, and the last, up to this time, at Il o'clock Friday night. A majority of the in- habitants of Guadalajara are in state of terror as a result of the seismic disturbances. Thousands have been sleeping at night in the plazas and gardens. The severe shocks have filled the streets with people, many of them on their knees, praying. A woman ot the lower class dropped dead from fright near the corner of Avenida Colon and Morelos street on We'd nesday evening, following severe shock at $50 o'clock. Several persons have been slightly injured by falling tiles. The walls of many houses and larger buildings, in cluding some churches and schools have been cracked. Statues in churches have been thrown down and wrecked. Seismic disturbances similar to those of the last few days have not been recorded here since 1875. The first shock was felt at fifteen minutes past o'clock Wednesday morning, and in the twenty.four hours following the seismograph at the Seminario Con ciliar here registered more thar
 forty distinct shocks. All of the severe shocks have been "trepida
 torio" in character; the others "os
 cilatorio."

sion, at least, and the probability that
il would have. remained in committee
for the balance of the sixty-second
congress- The Burnett bill had been
previously favorably reported to the
house, and In reporting the amended

quoted largely from its report on the
Burnett BILL This. report says i'm fact:
II will be seen that the main pnr.
EoSe of the bill is to exclude from
the United States alien immigrants
over is years of age who are unable
to read their own Language or dialect.
In order that there might be no doubt
about the Hebrew and Yfddish being
considered as either a language or
dialect, they are expressly embraced
IN the bill.
From the requirement Of the Hit
eTacy test in the bill, there are sew
eral exceptions which the committee
thought wise to make We believe
that those who are fleeing from re-
ligious persecution should find city
of refuge ON our shores. Hence the
provision excepting immigrants of
that class from the test where they
are otherwise admissible.
Out Of regard for material and other
close family ties, and the duties and
obligations arising therefrom, as we'll
as high moral considerations, the
committee thought proper to make
the other exceptions embraced in the
BILL
A bill in its main features similar
to this was considered by the House
on February 20, 1907 The House felt
that before action of that nature
should be taken, there ought to be
a careful investigation of the .ques
ton both i'm this country and in Eu-
rope. An amendment was offered by
those opposed to the illitefacy test,
providing for a commission for that
purpose. and it was adopted.
The commission. after nearly four
years of investigation and study of
the question both in this country and
in Europe. made its report to Con-
gress more than a year ago. There
were nine members of that commits

their statement.

believe important. to. know some OF
the reasons which led the commission
up to these conclusions, and we will
make few extracts from the Brief
statement of conclusions and fecom-,
Tendations of the commission On
page % OF this statement they say:
The proportion of the more serious
crimes of homicide, blaekmail, and
robbery. ass well as the least serious
offenses. is greater among the foreign
born. The disDroportion in this re-
gard is due principally to the preya-
lenee of homicides and other crimes
of personal violence among Italians
and to the violation of city ordinances
previously mentioned
On page 81 they say:
As result of the Investigation the
commission is unanimously OF the
opinion that in framing legislation
emphasis should be laid upon the fol-
lowing principles:
/. While the American people. as
in the past. welcome the oppressed OF
other lands. care should be taken that
immigration be such both In quantity
and quality as not to make too diff
