WILLIAM G. RUSSELL

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-William G..
Russell, secretary to Representative
Ware, of Pennsylvania, was found dead
in his bed early to-day, his death hav-
ing been caused by the fumes of a gas
stove in his room, it was believed.
Failure Of Mr.. Russell to arrive at
the Office of Representative Ware
caused the sending of two messengers
to his residence. They found his body
and, after investigation, expressed the
warming of the room, fallen asleep and
had been asphyxiated by the gas from
two burners of the stove that had
failed to light.

ton will be extremely drastic and it is reported that one will go far as exclude every alien except immediate blood relatives of persons already living here.
 That the last named proposal is extreme IS ad- uitted, and will probably not be adopted in ne" legislation But the need for very careful selection of those aliens flooding European countries awaiting ..n opportunity enter the United States is urgent There is real in the great number of un- aesrables in Russia who eager to come to this country relations between the two nations are resumed. It is estimated that literally millions of Russians will try 10 in. Although for the present the quota allowed under the temporary immi grafton law is exhausted for Poland some 10000 per sons said be waiting near Warsaw or Danzig conditions materiali2e that will permit them 10 come to America. In handling these immigrants, or any other aliens desiring to enter, the paramount
 thing to be considered is the Well-being of our own country. That should be the end aimed at in the establishment of q permanent immigration policy. The attitude of certain racial elements present in the United States which is outspOkenly against the present regulations is being widely condemned and is barely tolerated by the great of the public whose interest in the immigration has made it of the i've issues of the day.

Recently Llcyd George made what the cable de- scribed as impagsoned appeal for face-to-lace discussion by nations invited to the economic con ference at Genoa" Following recent politco-eeon- omc developments it has become noteworthy that Lloyd Georlc as chief sponsor for that conference has become little worried concerning it's prospects, and now makes these appeais,-which he is well en- titled to make-for whoe-hearted cooperation.
 In this latest exhortation he touches also vital point-the psychological After sressing the dire need of real peace he emphasizes that the various conferees should display the proper attitude. They must come in .the spirit of peace'-words rem inscent of thin4s said also in Washington And IL is well to recognize the obstacles to that unanimity of spirit.
 Europe has at least six conspicuous ailments or unadiustcd problems, - mixed reparations tangled debts unbalanced budgets, unpractced economies trade barriers, paper money.
 Superically these things, themselves interrelated' are all back-and-whte propositions that should be resolved at gathering of A earnest nations at Genca These nations could and should calmly plan rectfcation, repentance. and profess reform
 But into the practical there intrudes the psych- o!ogy-or if will. the patriotic. These are in ternational themes. But much of Europe is today fercely naonalistic.
 Two sets of contrasting collective personalities jarathes psychological ensemble
 England, seated the seas, proud of purse, in vocation industrial and mercantile with majority Of her people (nearly one-ffth idle) getting their bread from foreign business, yearns now for the old order and for emancipated trade France, self-con- tained largely agricultural passionately for future security present financial relief after her spendngs and suferings. Where is the just line of accommodation when it comes partnership and policy?
 There is also another debatabe question of classi fcaton.
 Is Germany Jekyll or Hyde? Is she honest in vows Of fulfment and pleas of poverty? Or still inlpenitent eyasiyc?
 Is France, swapping her premiers, chauvinist and ambitious, justly apprehensive and reproachful?
 More than black-and-white mathematics enters. There is the color and of passion and interest. And who classify the Reds-straig ghtforward or scheming still they recant and reced?
 All of which complicates the Genoa prospect. And makes Washington, with its conference dragging along much shorter and simpler agenda, quite skeptical and hesitant And keeps the world just much further from economic equilibrium.
 Hence the great value of common min ndedness amendable 10 conciliatiOn and compromise the will to agree

Campaign for New Pacific Cable.
Seattle Times

A saving of anywhere from $1O,OOO, 900 to $15- DOC, GOO can be made by constructing a cable line hat will have Seattle it's American terminus and which will be laid to Japan via Stka and the Aleu- ian Islands.
 Lieut. Col. C. A. seaone United States Signal 7orps who has into this matter in detail points nut that such a route would be 5000 miles shorter han any other that might be selected, and he is uthory for the estimate of the savings that would 5e possible by choosing the northern
 This is only one among many important reasons avorng the laying of cable from this city the East Coast of Asia to the growing needs )f international trade and diplomacy.
 The existing cable from San Francisco to Yoko- hama suffers from numerous handicaps, which be- particularly noticeable when anything puts it put of commission.
 From San Francisco to Honolulu the span is } I 100 miles, from Honolulu Midway is 1 149 miles from Midway to Guam is 2,301 miles, while from Guam to Yokohama, the final stretch is 1852 miles The total distance travelled by the cable is 6,902 miles
 Compare this with the stretch from sitka to the western end of the Aeutian Islands 1874 miles, and from that point Yokohama 1927 miles, total distance of only 3,641 miles. By hooking up the present government system with this new trans pacific line, communication would be assured by the construction of only 3,641 miles cable.
 It will be noted that one stretch of the existing line-that between Midway and Guam-s nearly two-thirds the entire length of the proposed cable from Stka Yokohama.
 Conversation alone will the cable built Neither will Congress unless the necessity for action is forcibly impressed upon it's attention.
 There is very decided feeling in many quarters that the dominant position of Seattle in Coast com merce renders necessary more rapid, certain and eff fcient communication with Eastern Asia
 In that belief, shippers routing commodities through this port undoubed share particularly since their attention has been called to the nsuf fciency of the existing cable by it's breakdown That incident occurring during the conference also must have made a painful impression upon of fcial Washington,
 The time seems to be ripe for pressing the de mand for the line. That it will be laid ult- mately is certain but there is to believe a drive in it's behalf at this time might advance Con gressona aoticn and actual construction months or even years.
