To Check Undesirable Immigration.
The new law concerning immigra
tion to which the two houses of Con
gress have just agreed, is intended to
keep out of the country all immigrants
who cannot read and write either the
English language or the language of
their native land. The act marks an
other step in the development of the
popular disposition concerning the ad
mission of foreign-born people. There
is no doubt that for several years there
has been a growth of the feeling thai
onr law-makers have heretofore lteen
much too lax in admitting to the coun
try and to the privileges of American
citizenship the degraded and ignorant
classes of Europe and Asia. The con
tract act of 1891 was the outcome ol
this growing feeling, and this new law
is another and more radical step toward
the same end. It will no doubt act as
a decided check on the influx of the
more undesirable class of immigrants.
will prove advantageous to Amer
ican workmen, who have frequently
been crowded out of employment bv
tho cheaper laborer from southern Eu
rope. and it will at the same time re
lieve the country from the growth of
a mass of ignorance which has already
become too large for comfort if not for
safety. It is self-evident to every ob
serving man that under our late system
of immigration laws multitudes of va
grant. criminals and worthless trash
heve been sent into the country greatly
to its detriment. These classes of un
desirable immigrants have mainly come
from Italy, Greece, Spain and other
southern European countries, and ex
perience has demonstrated that it is
difficult to transform them to .Ameri
can citizens. They seem to have little
or no appreciation of our form of Go\ -
emment. and no personal affinity with
our people. In this respect they stand
in marked contrast with the immi
grants from Great Britain, Germany
and Scandinavia, who generally be
come welcome and useful additions to
our population.
The country has now reached the
point where the quality is of more im
portance thßn the quantity of our im
migration. The best of our public
lands have been taken up; our great
cities are thronged with unskilled la-
borers ana romgners who ore- gm< r«i
ly ignorant and too often vicious. We
have no spare room for immigrants
whose ignorance is a (Linger to the
country, and we have neither the
means nor inclination to educate them.
Certainly we have 110 room for the
horde of the anarchists and chronic
enemies of society who so often come
here apparently to establish a basis of
opposition to all civil government. The
new immigration law is a sensible one.
It is backed by popular opinion, and
the people will be glad to see its pro
visions rigidly enforced.
DURING the contest for delegates to
the St. Louis convention, last spring,
the Pittsburg Commercial Gazette ac
cused Messrs. Magee and Flinn of sell
ing out to Hanna, as representing Mc-
Kinley "s interests. The gentlemen nam
ed sued Messrs. Reed and Christy of
had no excuse for their statement, or
any explanation of it to offer excepting
that they got their information from
"Dick Quay" a son of the Senator; and
they were convicted. A new trial will
probably be ask for.
On Wednesday more suits were enter,
ed against the Com-Gaz., Press and
Leader, and also against Richard R.
Quay.
A Question of Funds.
(Harrisburg Telegraph)
Whether Pennsylvania will have a
new Capitol or will rebuild the burned
one: whether the State will spend #500,-
000 or $">,000,000, in such work: whether
the new structure will l»e colonial, pure
Greek renaissance or Gothic in style—
all these matters must remain in adv
ance for the time being. Not enough
time has elapsed to permit of the for
mation of some definite policy in this
matter, and the members are wide a
part in their jdeas. To add to the dif
ficulties, it is almost certain that the
new Capitol question will l>e taken up
by the factions and will almost certain
ly be made a factional issue.
All these things .materially increase
the trouble ahead, but one most impor
tant matter overtops them all, both in
interest and expediency: Where is the
money for a new Capitol of any kind
to come from? It is no joke to say
that the State Treasury is running low.
This is the case, for, despite the brave
showing made in the reports, the facts
are that if the outstanding warrants
against the general fund were paid
there would be barely enough money
to pay current expenses for the year.
This is the phase of the new Capitol
question, most bothersome to the ad
ministration. Governor Hastings sees
the dangers and is already acting. As
a first step the Governor has requested
Attorney General McCormick to write
an opinion upon the ability of the State
to issue bonds, contract debts or enter
upon other obligations under che bind
ing clause of the Constitution. This
opinion will lie ready by next we'-k.
As soon as he receives it Governor Hast
ings will confer with Senator J. G.
Mitchell, of Jefferson: Repserentative
W. T. Marshall, chairman of the two
Appropriation Committee of the two
branches of the Legislature: Lienten-
Governor Lyon, Attorney General Mc-
Cormick and other leaders over the
best plan to persue. This conference
has Wen agreed upon and will be held
some time next week.
The question of funds is now upper
most. It is uncertain whether it would
be wisest to borrow money or to cut
down appropriations. The city mem
bers are willing enough to assist in a
radical reduction of the general school
appropriation. It is believed that this
appropriation could be reduced from
$5,500,000 to $3,500,000 per year without
injury to the schools. But the country
members would fight such a scheme
bitterly and with good arguments.
They would claim it unfair to rob the
schools to erect a palace for the Legis
lature.
On the other hand, it will "»e argued
that the schools receive too much mon
ey now and that the State to
inaka a permanent reduction in this
appropriation. This is where all the
difficulty is. It doubtful if money can
l>e raised by a bond issue. The next
thing is to reduce appropriations. No
wonder the Governor and his /K] visors,
as wel| as the new Capltoj
bovArs, are perplexed.
RECENTLY the Sjmniards executed
twenty Cuban prisoners at one time
Ten were shot and ten beheaded with
the machet.
THE Arbnckles an«l Havetneyers.
America's biggest importers, are fight
ing each other and the prices of sugar
and coffee arelowers than anal.
CoRBETT and Fitzsimmons are talk
ing about a fight between them, which
is to come off in Nevada on March 17th.
The legislature of that state has passed
an act permitting the bout to take
place.
MOIUMMKUAN soldiers killed several
hundred Christians and burned the
capital city of Crete an island in the
Mediterranean sea. . The inhabitants
are divided in to Greek aud Turkish fac
tions who neither ask nor give each
other quarter.
THE Cuban tobacco yield the past
year has been ">.OOO bales, instead of
."■OO,OOO bales, the yield the year before.
The sugar crop has been reduced to
one-fourth of its former size, and \v ill
lie smaller the coining year.
ANDREW CARNEGIE predicts that un
less some surprises are sprung on the
country nothing can hold it back from
a period of general prosperity, especial
ly since the enormous product of gold
continues to hold out. This product,
he savs, is now double what it was 10
years ago.
A THICKLY populated district 1300
miles long and 400 miles wide in central
India is cursed with a famine. There
are no prosjiects of natural relief until
the wheat and rice crops are harvested
next August or September. Meanwhile
the natives are starving to death and
the British government is vainly trying
to support them.
AT an intercollegiate contest in In
diana a young orator who represented
a Western college confessed that the
oration he delivered was a sermon that
had been preached by the Rev. Lyman
Abbott. The funny part of the inci
dent is that the judges; after it had
been delivered, marked it "bad in
thought and composition," and the
young man failed to receive the prize.
As Dr. Abbot has always been distin
guished for the thought and manner of
composition of his writings, it is hard
to tell who is hit hardest, the young
orator or the judges.
THE National Armenian Relief Com
mittee recently forwarded to Turkey
$85,000. They have just received a ca
ble message from the International
Committee at Constantinople, of which
the British Ambassador is Chairman,
acknowledging the remittance,and stat
ing that the funds in hand are entirely
inadequate to meet the awful suffering
and destitution, and that careful inves
tigation has shown that not less than
40.000 children have »een made orphans
by the late massacres. These "Wards
of Christendom" can be easily saved
from starvation or debasing enslave
ment in Moslem homes, and can be
cared for at the rate of a dollar a month,
but thousands will perish before Spring
unless generous gifts are sent at once to
Brown Brothers & Co., 59 Wall St.,
New York, who are the authorized
treasurers.
AWAY out ill the Rocky Mountains
among the cliffs of the Sierra Nevadas
is a sparsely settled community that
does not equal in population that of
some of the large wards of this city, but
it is by courtesy called a State and iis
name is Nevada. This State was creat-
cal necessity,- but it has all the sover
eignty of a Commonwealth equal to
that of New York or Pennsylvania, and
it has just passed a law that was rushed
through both branches of the Legisla
ture and approved by the Governor
within a week, legalizing the coming
prize fight between Corbett and Fitz
simmons. and the bruisers have now,
for the first time, a State or Territory
in the Union where they can exhibit
their brutal skill under color of law.
The passage of this bill to legalize prize
fighting in one of the forty-five States
of the Union is a reproach upon the Re
public, but Nevada is a sovereign Com
monwealth and it can have prize fight
ers amuse themselves in that jurisdic
tion if the legal authorities of the State
invite it by statute. It will call con
spicuous attention to the one State of
the Union that has long been single and
alone in diminishing both in business and
population, and that is willing to have
its escutcheon clouded with disgrace to
gain the profits of a prize-fight.—Phila.

HARRISBURG.
On Thursday the Board of Property :
contracted with the trustees of the
Grace Methodist Church for the use of .
itn building- near ('apitol Hill, and Gov
Hastings notified the Legislature that
the buildings would be ready for use by
Monday evening of this week.
In the Senate, that day. in session in !
one of the court rooms there was a hoi j
debate over a resolution calling for
plans for a now State Capitol building. j
The last strokes of the hatchet and j
the first rips of the gavel fell sitnul ,
taneouslv Monday evening. Until the 1
moment when the Legislature was call J
ed to order, the carpenters and median |
ies of all descriptions were :it work in
every nook and comer of the House and ]
Senate. The interii >r of Grace church ,
has been completely changed in four 1
days, under the personal direction of j
Gov. Hastings.
There is a complete electric light sys j
tent supplementing the gas which wa
in use in the church. The entire build j
ing is now heated by steam, in addition j
to hot air. not only in the main halls. ;
but in every one of the score of com |
mittee and record rooms which have!
been made. Ventilation is now by the
fan system, with hot and cold air. The j
greatest changes, possibly, have beer,
below ground. Last Wednesday there
were two long, dark dirt floored cellars,
of no use to anybody. Now this space
is occupied by 30 floored rooms, with
light, heat and ventilation complete.
The Senate has its postoflice, its cloak
room, its wash room and shaving par
lors: quarters for the sergeant-at-arms
and his staff of assistants: a rail about
its floor to keep the spectators off the
carpets; a gallery—in fact, anything
and everything that the most exacting
persons could want in such an emer
gency. New desks and old chairs are
on hand for the Senate.
In but one particular of any impor
tance was Gov. Hastings disappointed,
and that was beyond his control. The
desks ordered from Boston and Chicago
for the house of Representatives failed
to arrive, and so the members sat be
hind temporary pine tables which were
hastily made Monday. No attempt
will be made to arrange the places of
the members in their proper order until
the desks are received. Most oI the
furniture of Speaker Boyer's room was
rescued from the flames, and his apart
ment in the church presents much the
same appearance it did on Capitol hill.
The extensive church galleries were
crowded early with an audience that
remained throughout the proceedings.
The members of the congregation were
there in force, and there was a large
party of womeu, including Mrs. Hast
ings, Mrs. Reeder and others of official
circles.
The new capitol project, in its various
phases, was practically the only topic
considered by either branch that day.
During the evening session a number
of bills were introduced, and among
them ones by Mr. Mitchell of Jefferson,
authorizing the Govenor to appoint a
commission to adopt or edit and com
pile a uniform series of text books to be
used in the common schools of this
Commonwealth, and providing the
method of acquiring the right to issue
and sell the same and the manner and
time of introducing the same in said
schools, and regulating the printing
and publishing thereof.

tne revenue measure introduced by
Ward R. Bliss, of Delaware. The pre
amble recites that the report of the State
treasurer show that the State revenues
are insufficient to pay the ordinary ex
penses of the State government, includ
ing the appropriations for the support
of the public schools and the State char
itable institutions: that the destruction
of the capitol and the necessity of the
immediate erection of the new building
makes it imperative that additional
revenue shall lie provided for the com
monwealth during the next three years
and it is inexpedient that this addition
al revenue should be obtained at the ex
pense of the local school districts or the
unfortunate victims of accident or dis
ease who are cared for by the charita
ble institutions. The bill imposes these
additional taxes, all of which shall be
retained in the State treasury for use
of "Commonwealth:
One million 011 personal property, ex
cept public loans liable to taxation un
der the act of 1889-91: one million 011

shall continue in force until January
1. 1900 and no longer, except as to those
taxes which shall become due before
that time, but shall not have been col
lected up to that time, as to which it
shall continue in force until all of such
taxes have been collected and paid into
the State treasury. All the taxes men
tioned in the proposed law shall be in
addition to any and all taxes now iin
possed by act of Assembly, and nothing
contained in the bill shall alter, amend
or in any manner affect any existing
law, except by increasing the amount
of the taxes to be assessed and collect

The order goes into effect Sept. 1. 1897,

A Romantic Career.
One of the handsomest rhtirches in
Denver —the Sonth Broadway Christian
Chnrch. was Imilt by a native of But
ler county named J. C. Sutton, who is
known in his - oinmunity as "Old Jack
j He lately save the following account
: of himself:
"My father was a fanner. We lived
on a farm in Butler county. Pa., and
1 it was there that I sj»ent the earlier
j years of my life. My father was
wounded in the war of tbl2. and when
I was a very small boy his health gave
out and he-was able to do little or noth
-1 ins- Of course, I had to stop school
! and went to work on the farm.
••1 kept that up until I was li years
j old. when I went to Pittsburg and
' started driving on a canal. It was
j while working there that I met James
1 A Garfield. He was doing the same
• kind of work and we became fast
| friends. Although the work was hard
I 1 enjoyed it. for Jim and I used to be
1 together a deal and managed to
! make the time pass pretty rapidly.
•■As 1 grew older I got tired of the
I routine of walking up and down the
1 banks of the canal and began to aspire
to higher things, so 1 quit canal driving
' and started to work in a rolling mill in
the vicinity, and didn't see Garfield
very often: but we always wrote to
each other and kept each other in sight
He never forgot me even when he was
at the height of fame and I was practi
cal ly nobody.
"After working in the rolling mill
for two years I began running in flat
boats on the Ohio river, and in a short
time became an engineer. I always
liked machinery, and it was easy for
me to become proficient in the handling
of an engine. From occupation 1
drifted into driving stage I drove the
first four horse omnibus that ever en
tered Pittsburg. This did not last long
and before many months I was firing
ou a railrord. The next 14 years of my
life were spent running engines on va
rious railroads in Pennsylvania. New
York and Ohio, and it was while en
gaged in this occupation that 1 was in
jured so badly that it has affected me
ever since. At the time 1 was running
one of the fastest and best engineson the
New York Central.
"The company had flooded the coun
try with circulars, guaranteeing to car
ry people between New York and Cin
cinnati in a shorter time than would
any other railroad. As may be expect
ed." this set them all thinking, and the
way the rival railroads used to race
their trains was a caution. The Penn
sylvania Central took it up. and person
al -safety expense and everything were
sacrificed to gain speed.
"Well one day, as my train was
rounding a curve in the track ">(• feet
above a creek aud within a foot of a
solid wall of rock, 1-saw not 100 yards
in front of me a log that had fallen
across the track. It didn i take me
many seconds to take in the situation.
The log was placed so that 1 thought
the engine would surely strike it and
be thrown into the creek below, so 1
reversed her and jumped, hoping to be
able to cling to the rocky walls. But
I couldn't. The train caught me and
jusfc rolled uie along those rocks until
I came opposite the place between the
cars, when 1 dropped into the ditch.
There was hardly a lib in my body that
was not broken, and it was six months
before I was able to go to work again.
"Well sir, would you believe it? that
train did not leave the track. -The
cow-catcher caught the log and cut
right through it and after running a
little ways stopped. That was about
the closest call that I ever had, .1-
though I have been in some ticklish
places.
"After my accident 1 was not worth
much as an engineer, and in a couple
of years 1 qui I. the business altogether.
With the money I had saved from my
earnings I started a bakery at Alliance,
0.. and remained there for IT years. 1
made considerable money in thai busi
ness, and when I sold one to come \V«=-.t
for my health I had several thousand
dollars, with which 1 gained the rest

Mr. Sutton is 7<> years old but from
appearances there is hardly a person
who would pronounce him over 60. He
is remarkably well preserved, and his
whole le artedness seams to crop out all
over him. He says his eyes have failed
him so that he cannot read any more,
and he has nothing with which to oc
cupy himself when he is through work
but his thoughts.
He says he is not much longer for
thiworld, and has had much more
pleasure out of his fortune than if ho
had not given it in a good cause. His
quarters in the tower of the church
have a homelike and comfortable ap
pearance. indicating that the inmate 1-
