Guard the Gates!

Senator Knute Nelson's record in
working his way from the position of
poor and unknown immigrant boy
to an influential place in the United
States senate is and has been for
years an inspiration to every ambi-
tious boy in America. It is not, how
ever, valid argument for unrestrict-
ed immigration to this country now,
although many proponents of that pol
icy are trying to make it appear so.
Senator Nelson came to the United
States in 1549. At that time the pop
ulation Of the entire country was
about twenty-three millions. Chicago
was little more than struggling vii
lage, and stretching west from there
to the Pacific was vast wilderness,
with less people in the entire state of
Minnesota than is now contained in
the average farming town. Since that
time more than twenty-five million
immigrants from all parts Of Europe
have been welcomed and have contri-
buted their splendid share to the coun-
try's greatness. But for them much
of the West would still be virgin for
est and vast primeval waste, while
the names of themselves and their
descendants adorn the political bust
ness and artistic records of the nation.
But while America owes SO much Of
it's greatness to the immigrant it also
owes something to their descendants.

House Demands
| Cutting Of Budget
MINI sofa DEPARTMENT
HEADS MUST CURTAIL DE-
MANDS ONE-FOURTH.

Representative Theodore Christian
son, chairman-to-be of the House COM
mittee on appropriations has served
notice on state departments and insti-
tutions that $10,000,GO0 must be lopp-
ed at once from the state budget.
Radical revisions will have to be
made" Representative Christensen
said, "and if the department and IN
sti5ution heads don't make them, the
Legislature must"
Ask 100000 Increase.
State institutions and departments
have requested nearly $40,O0O,OOO
from the Legislature for the coming
two years, an increase over the 1919
total Of more than $9,000,000. Repre-
sentative Christensen declared this
must be cut to $25,0OO,O 900 and assert
ed the House will not stand for total
higher than $3O,000,00O.
The statement Of the House appro-
priations; chief will create conster1ia-
ton among state departments today.
Increases sought by nearly every de-
partment were based on the request
for higher salaries and enlarged du-
ties of department. That there must
be curtailment instead Of an increase
is the demand of Christianson.
Pruning Knife Ready.
"The situation in many parts of the
state is such that many will find it
impossible to get money with which
to pay their taxes" Christianson said.
1.-THE Legislature would prove rec
reant to its trust, if it sanctioned an
increase in the tax rate; it would not
do it's full duty if it did not use every
effort to reduce the tax rate"
Informally, Christensen indicated
that the pruning knife is to be WELD
ed not unsparingly, but with discre-
| ton. In statement which he issued
after Speaker Nolan had indicated the
Lac qui Parle representative will be
appropriations head Christensen said:
'The $40,000,000 acquisitions filed
with the Governor, must be cut at
least Is per cent, and the men in
charge of the various state activities
should proceed to prune their budgets
accordingly. The total of appropria-
tions for the coming biennium should
not exceed @4o5, 100000, and the tenn
per of the members of the House and
Senate indicates that they will not
permit it to exceed $30,000,000.
Revision Held Imperative.
Radical revisions will have to be
made, and if the department institu-
ton heads don't make them, the Legis-
lature will.
"It seems that those who have
charge Of state activities would rath-
er do the trimming themselves than
| leave it to the more or less haphazard
efforts of legislators, who cannot pos
sibly acquire in ninety days the full
knowledge required for an intelligent

King Coal HOSTS
the Black Flag

If anything were needed to show
that the coal manipulators have the
coal-using public in the hollow of their
hand, that need would seem to be sup
piled by the disclosure of the senate
reconstruction committee, sitting in
New York this very month, to the eff
feet that New England consumers
have been forced this year to pay s17,-
100000 more than they should have
paid for the coal which they have US
ed. New England is prominently a
coal-using district. It knows no other
means Of keeping itself warm and fed
through the winter season than by the
liberal use Of this fuel. So the ST.
900 900 that now figures on the rec
ords Of this senate committee is the
measure Of the avarice of those who
furnish the coal necessary to life in
this northern district But it is also
the measure of their control Of the
situation. It is the measure of their
ability to defy government which,
as the true representative of the peo-
pies interest, should be competent
and active to prevent such exploita-
ticn of the mass by any class. Worst
If all. that $17,C00,J 0C is a measure
of the inccmpetency of the govern
ment to preserve that fair balance in
the relaG OBS Of those who live under
it, which it is constituted to maintain.
There is nothing in legitimate bust

Opportunity for material and social
success IS still greater in this country
today than in any other in the world,
but how many years will it continue
so? With several million more aliens
crowding into our land annually, what
will conditions be a generation or two
from now? Are not the original inn
migrants and their posterity entitled
to more consideration than the people
of other lands, regardless of how de-
serving the latter may be? Should
they not have room to expand ? How
may they do so with the country as
populous as the Europe their fathers
got away from?
These and similar questions are fill
ling the minds of many people during
the present agitation, and while they
touch but one phase of the imrnigra-
tion question, they are important. Ev-
en- if the old world is full of potential
United States senators and it doubt
less is Of course, let them wait little
while until the United States can
figure out some plan to get them with
out having to take also so many who
are not, but who on the contrary may
prove menace.
immigration is a big nlesttii ion iii this
country and it is difficult to see how
any harm can be done if it is tenn
porarily checked until some policy
can be formulated based on something
besides sentiment.

ness procedure which can excuse the
extreme practices already 50 broad
ly disclosed as government the supply
and distribution of coal. Legitimate
business practices can never produce
such profits, because such drastic and
relentless exploitation can never be re-
ally legitimized. That such methnds
can continue unchecked, in the Unit
ed States, indicates nothing more
clearly than that the nation still comes
far short Of realizing, in daily prac-
tice. those high ideals which it would
so gladly associate at all times with
the name of America. Control that
can be measured only by industrial
strangulation or extottion has in 1t
nothing of purpose or method that
ca1 typify either the American ideal
or legitimate American business.
Why are such practices allowed to
go on? If the United States is, by it's
nature, in the business Of doing away
with autocracies, why does it tolerate
this one? If the nation truly exem-
plifies government by the majority,
why does it allow itself to be driven
and subjugated by this coal-handling
minority? Mere threats are idle, even
when they are uttered by honorable
senator's who might seem to be able,
through their position in the govern
ment, to do what is necessary for the
correction of all that is unfair. In
vestigations go on and on. Legisla-
tive committees fill the newspapers
with telling how widely they mean to
carry on each new search for facts,
how fearlessly they will summon all
who can throw any light on the situa-
ton. Yet one investigation after or
other comes to an end, has its brief
day in the columns of the press, and
still nothing happens. The war is
past. There is no longer any excuse
to bespeak public patience and tolera-
ton Of abuses. If the government of
the United States is really a govern
ment by and for the people, if indeed
the power of coal is not to be the ac-
tual government, the coal industry
should be made to serve the public
instead of being any longer permitted
to exploit it. The grim joke whereby
the natural resources Of a nation be-
come the means of compelling it to
pay unwarranted tribute to handful
of individuals has been laughed at
long enough.-Christian Science Mon
itor.

understanding Of what the specific
needs of those state activities are.
s.There is disposition on the part
Of institution and department heads
to feel that their own particular ac-
tivity is of greater Importance than
any other, to seek to make personal
record by building up departments and
institutions that shall exceed in mag
nitude and completeness the CORES
ponding departments and institutions
in other states. This tendency must
and will be checked.
The taxpayers of the state cannot
be expected to make financial sacri-
fees and bear heavy burdens to sus-
tam the pride of individuals. Adequa-
cy for actual needs rather than COM
parative size must furnish the basis
for judging state activities.
Price Readjustment Cited.
''Those who are pressing their
claims for higher salaries must rec
ognize also that the price readjust-
ment which is taking place will itself
raise salaries at least SO per cent in
purchasing power. They should
therefore, 1fot at this time press the
state for salary increases.
1.-THE majority Of those who pay
taxes are finding their incomes cut
radically, and those who work for the
state ought to be more than satisfied
if they are not called on to make the
sacrifices that people generally are
making. There is serious danger that
if any concerted effort at salary re-
adjustment is made, such effort will
result in REIMBURSEMENT downward.
"The farmers of the state are faced
with the necessity of marketing their
crops at prices which represent only
one-third of production. Merchants
are finding the value of their stocks
cut in two.

THE UNKNOWN
PUBLIC SERVANT

Philadelphia Public Ledger: There
died in New York city on Friday a
man not widely known to the general
public and to comparatively few in his
own profession, but whose life Of use
fitness and service it would be inn
possible to overestimate. Horatio W.
Seymour in his later years was an
editorial writer for the New York
World, after a distinguished career as
editor Of newspapers in Chicago and
in Milwaukee. In Mr.. Seymour every
good cause, every righteous movement,
found an ardent advocate and every
form Of injustice and oppression an
unrelenting opponent. He wrote with
power and knowledge, upholding
cund views of government policy and
on social and economic questions. His
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1921-01-12

life was typical of many another edi-
torial writer, effacing himself with
unassuming nodesty but courageous
and answering in upholding the right
and in battling against all that was
base and evil. To his associates Mr..
Seymour's death will come as per-
senal loss; to the general public it
will mean a distinct deprivation be-
cause of the silencing of one voice
that was always raised for those
things that are true, and honest, and
just and of good report.
