THi: OFFICIAL hlstoty of tho last uiiHiicrcsaiful atilke of tho Amalgamated nsioela ' - tion presented lu tho fare well statement of President Shaffer la n document full of proiltublo instruc tion. It Is pathetic in its candor. It shows that honor is almost as rato anipng labor agltatota na it ptovciblal ly Is among thieves. Most of Mr. Hhnffer'H colleagues In the profession of labor generalship gave him nil Jklnds of assurances of support nnd dropped him like u hot potato the mo ment ho got Into trouble. Thcro was one exception John Iltchell. Ho, Mr. Shaffer tells us, In quired carefully Into tho Amalgamated strike "and mated that If wo would present a proposition, which ho out lined .ho, would demand acceptanco by tho Hunt, or call out tho miners." 1hrs' rev oil tho head of tho miners' union ds a man of ulilt, wiw believes In llio mti tuaill t nf labor IntciojitK.

TIIH PIIOPOSITION of Com missioner of Immigration Povwlcily that the woik of the Inimlgiiition buicau be so exteudetl as to Include leitllliatloti lit foielgn pints ot eveiy alien t iiudl tlate for entinnce Into the I'nlteil Slates, as well as suivdllaiiie for live eais after he gets in, Is natutall op posed by those who aie opposed to tightening the bats, as well as by some who want something done but don't know just what. To this latter class belongs the lloehesti'i-Poot i:picss, n good but llnnlekv paper, which, lu n comment upon Mr. Powdoib's sugges tion, .S.tS. "The proposed plan assumes that all iuimigtants aie pilni.i facie ctlniinals, it piovldes also that tbey must be subjected to tlie llei tlllion stem of monsuiemcnls, nnd that tbey must be watched for live jc.ns. What seir-ie-spec ting immlgiaut, or what poison w oi th of hemming a citizen ot the United States would submit to any such disgraceful assumption'.' Imag ine, too, what a coips of btutauciats would be it'tiulied to keep 'ttack of the hundieds of thousands of linml grants th.it come to this count ty eveiy eai. Weio the tiip.teis to submit to the biiiden of so many paiasltes we have no Idea that this system of es pionage, so hostile to tlie splilt of American Institutions, would be cflcc tle" It l.s not line tliat Mr. Povvdcil)'a plan assumes that all inmilgiaiits aie pilma lacle ciluilnals. It assumes meiely that tlie United States has long enough taken In all who otfei them selves and should now begin to exhibit n tntioual nieusuie of dlscilmatiou. No foreigner has any lived light to enter Ainetita. He comes tliiough toleiauce. That being 1 1 tie. it is within our pio lnce to define the tonus upon which he shall ontei. liecauso people lock their doois at night does: not assume that all other people nte btuglais, It simplv lecognizes the existence of enough Inn gluts tu make It woith wlillo to be fateful. Many leasons aside fioni the luoblem of nnaielilsm call for suivolllance of liumigiants. When u man Is taken into any of those i lunches which have a pe llod of pioliatlon lie is watclied, to see how he behaves. And ptopetly. The ihutch does not want to take into its fold one who would disci edit It. When a man Is einplocd In any business on trial, he Is watched, to see If he will till the bill. This does not shame him nor oftend him, and It In what he ex pects. The Immlgiaut Is not a citi zen but a piobatlouei. We may want to keep him and tonvoit him into a litleii, and we may not. Simply Ki ting1 in eveiybody who wants to come In, good, bad mid Indlffeient, and then, Just ns soon as they have lived beio the nocessaiy llvoyeais, unconcernedly clothing them lu tho complete gaib of tltUcnslilp, legatdless of how it Ills, have caused enough of mischief in this republic. It Is time to stop that cup. lessness and apply the obvious dk tales of common sense. If to do tills icqiihcs 111010 govern ment employs, hhe them. Hilckh aie not made, without stiaw.

(riom the New cuk Ttllniiii 1 INCU TIIU nssasslnatlon of Piesldcnt McKlnley u few apologists tor tho indecent abuse to which ho was sub Jectocl have come forwiud in ciitlclsm of the almost unlveisal loellng that tho vet bal anil pictotiul repi osculation of tho president as a scoundiel, a niutderer, an opptcs-sor of tho poor nnd a tool of tt lists far transcended tho limits of legitimate opposition, and tended to piovoko Insane passions nnd violence. Jt la snld thnt tho present Indignation against reckless vilifica tion ot public men Is Irrational, and that the peoplo In their ptosent mood, sttlvlng to put down uuntchy and In citements to anarchy, would ovettuin tho safeguards of llbeity nnd fieo gov ernment. Full fieedom of public crltlcifin, wo aro told, must bo pic served, nnd tho infoienco is that a publlu sentiment which foihudc such ubuso as Piesldcnt McKlnley wui s anbjii'teil to would result lu u muzzled press and ptatfotiu. Hut has liberty become llicnseV Is the art of effective but decent opposition entirely lost? lluvo oiutors nnd odlloiv no longer the clovoriievB or power to mouse Interest or cm try conviction without resort to billingsgate ami icckless falsehood, such as once wete legarded ns marks of weakness In argument lather than of stiongth? Have the people so de generated that sane reasoiiluc no lon ger Inlluenecs thetu. and tlint the only lesouice of those who would not see them sink Into apathy and slavery la violent language and appeals to pie Juilhe? Of coin so, the ficodotii of discussion must bo preserved. Constitutions guarantee free speech nnd a fieo ptess, but always subject to responsi bility for nbue of those lights. Hut Is the lino between the rights nnd their abuse strictly enough drawn, and, also. Is evident tiansgtoHsIng over the line, no matter how loosely drawn, punished by law or public; opinion as It should be? Theie can bo no ques Hon of the right of n citizen to criti cise! tho ptcsldont's policies most se verely. Tor instance, Senator 1 loin's loinaik that the subjugation of tho 1'hlllpplneH meant "the nb mdonmeiit of the pilneiples upon which our gov ernment Is founded, nnd It will change our republic into an nnplie," wus within the limits of legitimate ciltl- clsm. It was one iew of the ten dency of a public policy. Another ora tor, wlio, because the pi evident carried out that policy, talked about "McKln lev, with his wicked and cowardly heart, l .vising b.s bloodstained bands to heaven in hypociltlcal pi.ijer." tiansccnded those limits and de scended rot only to peisonul abuse, but to unpatilotlc attack upon author It. It Is one thing to disapprove a war, (pilte another to call the ofllcliil.s who pcrfoim their duties at the head of a nation's nnnies thlevow and mur- deieis. Likewise. It Is perfectly logitlninlo for those who think that tho ndminls tiatlon's policy favors certain llnan eleis to point out tho grounds of that belief, but It Is not legitimate daily to hold up to tho balled of the Ignor ant tho picsldeiit ot the United States as the contemptible tool ot lepulslvo villains, engaged In linaglniiiy atroci ties. Saicasin, ildleule and denuncia tion aie nil pioper Instiumonts of poli tical opposition, but those who use them sue. mm ally bound to use them with a duo sense of losponMbtllty and a tine legal d for tiutli, and not to call an otllelal n scoundiel lu moio piojudlce, confessedly -without facts lo waitant such a conclusion. The aits of a public oflleial ate always subject to moio llgld seiiltlny and shaipcr ciltltlsni than those or a pil vato Individual, but a lie about him is) just as much a lie as one about any body edso, and Is abuse of tho Heodom or .speech and the pioss. If we ever have a piesldcnt oi a cltv otllelal who Is a inuideiei, let us know tho tacts, and call him one by all means. If we llml that he steals, let us epoe tho lasc.tllty. Hut let not an otllelal be called a mill dot or or a thief Just us ,i Incident to Intempeiato opposition to bis public polle. lie ought to bo piotecled ltom such outtnfcoous libels iu well ns anv other man. A public olllcer can liaidly look to the law lor such piotectlon without seeming to Intel lore with fieo speech, though even 111 this fieo countiy ofll eots have not touted to call to account In couit those who peij-onally slan detcd theui. He ought, hovvovet, to be pioteclf'd b.v public opinion ft owning on unbridled political bitterness. Ai wa s after a polled of such bitterness the people c ome to see its Injustlc e and to i egret it. The hotheads who abused Washington and giavelv charged that he was suuendeilng our liberties to l'.ngland. might have known then that tbey weio wiong ns well ns a doen cus later, and have based their op position to his policy on appeals to icasoii and not to ignoiant prejudice. So, too, thos? who (hinged Piesldent McKlnley witli hideous ci lines liuvo al ready found out their enor. and somo of thoin havo relucted. How much bettor the would lool today If they had nnver wilttcn those eises, never pletuied hlni as a tool ot mists, never called hlni n iiiuidoiei! Political life does not depend for Its Heodom on license tor .such libels. They nte meiely the mink of low civil isation nnd Inability to deal with pub lie questions with f-eiiousness, sobiiety and logaid for the decencies, of life. Instead of holding to such abuses as lnstuitnents of fie? discussion, our people should fluui them, so that poli tic al (ontioveisy may be made to deal wllh laets and in bo decided by lea sou. Then to call all nflldal a mill -deter will ni'Mii that ho is one, and peoplo will stop to consider such a e lunge. Now such awful epithets aie Hung about so fieely that no attention l.s paid to the nlitiso by sano people, and a wicked olllcial lests secuio in his wickedness ft out their action, whllei the honest man may fall a victim to the msiiiiectcd passions ot tho cilnil n.il or nank. Mr. Shaffer Is prepnipd to attest that lu limine lug a big sttlko kind) wotds alono butter no pai snips. Tho opinion scorns to ho growing that tho anarchist needs a eloso of his own medicine.
