OF IMMIGRANT,

About the most prominent figure in |
anti-graft ranks just now is John
Weaver, mayor of Philadelphia. John |
Weaver was, originally, an immigrant, |

Iu an address ix
son, Wis,, last week, Carl SBehurz, of |
New York, struck the keynote of the |
endurance of this
eaid :
* This Republic should stand as the
gentleman par-excellence among na-
tions, a gentleman scorning the role of
the swashbuckler, whose hip pockets
bulge with loaded six-shooters and
who flashes big dismonds on his fin-
gers and shirt front; a gentleman
modest in tHe consciousness of strength
and carrying justice, forbearance and
conciliation on his tongue and benevo-
lence in his band, rather thau a chip
on his shoulder. If this republic is to
endure and Lo be successful in its high-
esl mission, imnust put its trust rather
in schools than in battleships.

ABOUT AN EXTRA SESSION,
Tu hold an extra session of the Leg-
Islature to repeal the ripper act and
pass a personal registration law would
cost anywhere from $150,000 to $175,
000, and in all probability would not
accomplish the needed remedy. After
the Governor had labored so over a
defense of that iniquitous measure it
seerns rather remarkable that any one
should expect him to call a special ses-
sion of the Legislature to repeal it. At
no time has the Governor indicated
the least indorsement of the purifying
work now in progress in Philadelphia,
and such expressions as have been got
out of him in Interviews show any.
thing but indorsement. He evidently
fails to realize (hat we have been hav.
ing “any evils worth menti ning. "’
