IX THU iinnunl report of Cominls-sloner-Oeneral
of Immigration
Powilerly for the year ended
June 30 last, which Is summar
ized In the annual report of the secre
tary of the treasury, the following in
teresting figures appear:
Total arrivals of alien InmilBrants,
4lS..')7i ILT.3T2 through ports of the.
United Sh'tes and 2.1,200 through Can
ada. Of these. 304, 14S were males and
111,121 females, M,(SlM were under 14
years of age, 370.3S2 were from 14
to 43 years old, and 23.GG6 were 43 and
over.
As to the literacy of persons 14 years
of age and over, there were 93,576 who
eould neither read nor write, nnd 2,087
who could read but were unablo to
write: C4.2SS brought each $30 or over,
.and 271, S21 showed sums less than .$30,
the total amounts displayed to inspect
ors aggregating $6,407,530.
There were returned to their own
countries within one year after land
ing 356, and hospital relief was ren
dered during the year to 2,417. The
total debarred, or refused a landing at
the ports, were 4,240 as compared with
.1,798 last year. Of these, 1 was ex
cluded for Idiocy. 32 for insanity, 2,974
as paupers or persons likely to become
public charges, 393 on account of dis
ease, 4 as convicts, 2 as assisted Immi
grants, S33 as contract laborers, and 7
women upon the ground that they had
been Imported for Immoral purposes.
In addition to the foregoing, there
were excluded at the Mexican and Can
adian borders a total of 1,616 aliens.
It appears that the Croatian and
Slovenian races sent an increase of 99
per pent, over those of the same races
who came last year; the Hebrew, an
increase of 62 per cent; the South
Italian (including Sicilian), 28 per
cent; the Japanese, 271 per cent; the'
Finnish, 106 per cent; the Magyar,
1SI per cent; the Polish, 64 per cent;
the Scandinavian, 41 per cent; the Slo
vak, S4 per cent. These nine races, of
the total of forty-one races represented
by Immigration, furnished nearly as
many Immigrants as the total arrivals
for the last year, or 310,444, and their
aggregate increase represented S3 per
cent of the total Increase shown for
the year.
The total Immigration reported, 448,
F.72, is in excess of that for the preced
ing year, 311,713, by 136.S57, or 43.9 per
cent. As to countries of origin, 424,700
came from European, 17,946 from. Asi
atic, 30 from African, and r.,S9C from all
other sources.
The commissioner-general points out
that In addition to the 448,372 immi
grants there arrived 63,633 other alien,
passengers, who, ho contends, should
be Included in conformity to law with
those classified as immigrants.
Tables showing the pursuits of the
immigrants reported distribute them
iip follows: Professional, 2,392; skilled
trades, 61,443; miscellaneous, 249,796;
o occupation, Including women and
ihlldren, 134,941; total, 448,572.
Attention is directed to the relatively
largo proportion of immigrants who io
inaln In the large cities nnd to the
dangers both to themselves and to
American citizens from this practice.
The commissioner-general presents rea
sons for construing the provisions of
the alien contract labor laws strictly
against lbs admission of aliens, nnd ha
urges that only circumstantial evidence
ran In the- nature of things be secured
to prove an agreement or contract to
Mipply work as an Inducement to mi
grate. The Inrgo increase In Japanese'
lipnilgrutlun Is refurred to, nnd iha
opinion 'Is' I xprcssod that, unless check
cj, It will produce serious trouble In
tlje Faeljlo .states, where such aliens
are used as cljeiip laborers to take the
peaces of American worklngmen.
JPlio recommAiidatlon, made hereto
fore, Is repeatei. that United States
ofjlcers be withdrawn fiom Canadian
ports nnd oxeus' portsof entry for
aliens lie cstubllshe'd at suitable point
airing 'our northern boundary, The
opinion is expressed that no other plan
Miort of the enactment of our imml
jnttlon laws by CanndaAvlU accomplish
tho purposo of enforcing their pravU
iohs mgnlnst nllens tints seeking to
come Into tho United States,
i'ho -eqinmlssloner-general recoiii
mjnds that congress oxpllqltly define
tlit) meaning of tho words "alien immi
grant," used in the act of March 3,
1893, to apply to all aliens coming into
tills country for whatever purpose, Ho
nl(jp recommends that prostitutes be
aisled to tho list of excluded classes;
that steamship companies be compelled
to'rccelvo for deportation to tho coun
tries whence they rame aliens who
have become insane within ono year
after landing, from causes arising sut)
ferjuent thereto, provided the return
passage of such aliens is prepaid; and
that the head tax bo increased to not
.
less limn $2, In order lo furnish Menus
for tho erection nnd maintenance of
suitable buildings at the principal ports
of entry for the accommodation of
aliens pending consideration of their
right to land,
For the enforcement of the nllen
contract labor taws theio was expend
ed dining the year tho sum of $99,598.31,
leaving a balance of the annual appro
priation of $401.40. Jn the administra
tion nf the Inwrf regulating Immigra
tion there was disbursed In the mmio
period $521,017.25. which amount, to
gether with MOO.sr.O paid on uccount of
the new buildings on Ellis Island, New
York Harbor, being deducted from the
receipts for the year, $57C,6SS.50, nnd
the balance on hand nt the close of
tho last fiscal year, $41S,3.'6.43, leaves on
hand $381,147.68.
The showing thus ninde Is highly
creditable to the distinguished Scran
tonlan who Is nt tho head of the Im
migration bureau,
m
The New York Sun. In noticing the
president's reference to reapportion
ment, fays It Is "significantly without
any reference to the curtailment of
southern representation." The presi
dent recommends ronppoitlonmont "as
provided by tho Constitution." The
Constitution Is mandatory In its direc
tion that where disfranchisement Is
practiced representation shnll be re
duced correspondingly.
Plans of School rinnagotnent.
RECENTLY before a Chicago
audience Andrew S. Draper,
now president of the Uni
versity of Illinois, but for
many years state superintendent of in
struction In Now York and ono of the
foremost American authorities on the
common school problem, piesonted
definitions of school evils nnd sug
gested remedies, both of which have
local as well as general interest.
The pith of Dr. Draper's lemnrks
was embodied in tills excerpt: "The
most subtle and deadly enemy of the
schools Is Influence in the interests of
persons, or parties, or sects, which does
not consider the common welfare of
the whole mass. The school organiza
tion must be required to resist such
Influences, and must 1jo given 'the
legal right and power to do It." The
idea here embodied was elaborated In
great detail and the doctor was as
severe upon the meddlesome and
officious teacher seeking by politics to
run the board as he was upon the
school director looking simply for per
sonal spoils.
"Every parent in this city," lie said,
"is entitled to have his (child taucht
just as well as the city can procure
it to be done. The teaching in the
schools of the city is to do some
thing more than solve problems in
mathematics and construct sentences
so that they wilt parse. It Is to give
character to the people and trend to
tho life of the city." He connected
the public schools closely vith de
mocracy, characterizing them as the
agents for renewing and keeping
strong tho democracy, and in this con
nection ho askt-: "Is it not time to
determine that we will attach creator
value to the substantialities than to
the novelties? Do we not owe more
to the patient, steady teacher who
trains minds in the bedrock principles
of humjin learning, thnn to the vivac
ious one who breaks into a conference
or a newspaper with a brand new
scheme'.'"
Much more of practical Interest could
be quoted froir the body of Dr. Drap
er's excellent address but wo must
hasten onward to Its conclusion, where
in he outlines his theory of the best
organization for school control:
Nothing (lioiild be done tniiUiim; the cli'imiil
ary M'liuoN which U iah'ul,itrd lo intrttiift

Teaching the Sultan a Lesson.
THR INCIDENTS buck of tho
government's determination
to send a warship to tho
town of Mnzagub, the port
neatest to the capital city of Morocco,
are interesting as Illustrative of tho
energy with which tho pixsont admin
istration upholds! tho rights of Ameri
cana abroad.
At Fez, on Juiio '.'S last, Maicus Kssa
gul, a naturalized citizen of the United
States, while in Morocco on a legitl
mata business mission, was foully and
brutally murdered. The crime was no.
toiinus; the criminals were known, yet
tho government of Morocco look no
steps toward either punishment or rep
aration. After waiting n reasonable
time for it to act, tho United States,
through Its consul general at Tangier,
Mr. Diiininc'i'c, presented a claim for
Indemnity, asking that Morocco pay
JMOO to Kzngul's widow.
The leply of tho sultan nf Morocco
was a characteristic Oriental squirm.
On July .1, 1890, a number ot powers,
Inclndlrg Morocco nitil tho United
States, through representatives nt
Madrid, hud signed a convention, one
of the articles of which relates to the
return to Morocco of a nnttirallzed
citizen of that origin, nnd snys that
In case he shall remain for a length
of time coital to that which shnll havo
been regularly necessary for him to
obtain such naturalization, he shall
choose between entire, submission to
the laws of tho empire nnd the obliga
tion to quit Morocco, unless his nat
uralization shnll have been acquired
with the consent of the Moroccan gov
ernment. Upon this entirely lensonable propo
sition tho sultnn now tries to put the
construction thnt, inasmuch as the
murdered man had resided In Morocco
for five years, the time within which
It was necessary for him to live In the
United States before naturalization
could be legally procured here, he
thereby came within the purview of
the aforesaid article and his govern
ment was estopped from treating him
as n cltben; In other words, that his
temporary jcsidence for business or
other purposes In Morocco for such
specified period vitiated his acquired
allegiance nnd reinvested hint with
that which he had voluntarily nnd leg
ally surrendered.
This Is clearlv subterfuge because
tho ticaly expressly gives to the nat
uralised clthicu the choice lo go back
to Moroccan citizenship or get out ot
Morocco If his presence there Is objec
tionable tb the Moroccnn authorities.
Kzagul had not chosen to relinquish
Ills American citizenship nor had ho
been informed that Ins presence In
Morocco wns not wanted. Ho had
obeyed the local laws, carried himself
becomingly and the real reason why
his murderers were not punished was
because the Moroccan government Is
jealous of Moroccans who surrender
natural to acquit e foreign citizenship,
and are anxious to discourage f-uch
exchange. Tho United Stales does not
recognize that this leellng of Jealousy
Is a sufficient warrant for violation of
plain treaty rights and it Is going to
send Consul General Gummero from
Tanglers to Morocco to Impress Its
views upon the sultan, and in otder to
make the journey comfortable is going
to allow him to make the ocean portion
of the trip on board a United States
warship.
A runnir Is current that five of the
nine justices of the United States
Supremo court, three Democrats and
two Republicans, are inclined to hold
to the doctrine that the Constitution
follows the flng; in other words, that
no duties can be levied on imports from
or American shipments Into the new
dependencies. It Is a rumor which can
not be verified and therefore the best
disposition of the matter Is to wait
until the bridge is reached before try
ing to cross It.
The Philadelphia Record appeals to
tho Democratc members of the legis
lature not to enter a caucus of their
own but to cast their votes for an anti
Quay Republican for United States
senator. The Record is in danger of In
curring "insurgent" censure; for If the
Democrats should not support a Demo
crat there are many of them who would
rather support Quay than any Republi
can candidnte of the faction arrayed
against him.
The United States Supreme court has
bold that a state law requiring railroad
companies In the state to provide sep
arate coaches for colored passengers
does not conllict with the Interstate
commerce act.
It is said that the pacified Filipino
will make the most docile citizen upon
earth when properly educated. Tho
dlfllculty now seems to be in getting
close enough to him to educate him.
The United States government seems
to be In a fair way to make the sultan
at least buy a ship of us. ,

My souows, my anguish, my love and my tears;
Tell my helouxl, my beautiful Turma
To buiy his love in the grave ol the eais."
She stood, like a queen,
Pimid, regal, tctcue,
A vision of beauty forever;
Onu stroke so brave,
Ono shriek she gave
And fell from thu cliff lo the river.
The wild wateis glide,
Over tho lovely bride;
Death claimed the iintlcso blossom,
Death claimed tho intlesi blossom.
Where Yiolabe wie;
Sweet Miroscy slcejcs
