with fully as much freedom, and a gloat deal

tho Chicago nominee. Mr. liryan is plainly

Hood's Sarsaparilla, and take It according
to directions, to purity your blood, or
cure any of the many blood diseases, you
nro morally certain to receive benellt.
Tho power to cure Is there. You nro not

Notwithstanding tho hard times tho
annual roport of tho Commissioner of Immi
gration shows that f!l3,!2H7 immigrants landed
on our shores, 81.70S more than in tho pre-1
ceding year. Of all tills vast army all but
2,71)11 wero permitted to stay. No doubt many
of these pooplo will make valuablo acquisi
tions to our population, but wo incline to tho
belief that we would bo bettor off without
the majority. Tho time was when wo could
not get too many immigrants, but that time
is past and the conviction is forcing itself
upon leading statesmen that tho time has
arrived when greater restrictions to keep out
tho undesirahlo class of immigrants should
he adopted. It Is quite possible this question
will force itself upon our law makers in the
near future as tho revival of business now
progressing will increase Immigration beyond
oven last year's phenomenal figures.

Urtuicli nt tlio National League of Itusi
lies Men to the Ilx-Postluustcr General,
and the I.tttte.r' Iteply.
PlIlLADr.U'mA, Nov. 17. The Philadel
phia branch of tho National Leaguo of
IJiibI moss Mon hold another Important
mooting yestordny, which undoubtedly
will lead to developments that will have
groat Influence In the political affairs of
tho state In tho rear future. During the
campaign which ended In such a pro
nounced victory for tho causo of sound
monoy organizations of business men till
over tho country gavo assistance that un
doubtedly had much to do with tho sweep
ing chnrnctor of tho victory. Of thoso or
ganizations none was more ipromlnont or
more vigorous than tho McKluloy and
Hobart business mons' national campaign
commltteo of Philadelphia.
Ono of tho great lessons of tho campaign
was tho utility of the buslnoss man In po
litical affairs, and tho necessity of his con
tinued Interest ns a balance of power to
guard tho interests of government,- and
to Insist upon economical and crrult
ablo legislation in tho Interest of nil con
cerned. This lod to tho formation last
week of tho National Leaguo of Business
Men, and when this was dono tho McKin
ley and Hobart campaign committee
formed Itself Into a permanent organiza
tion, nml was enrolled ns tho Philadelphia
branch of tho national organization. Yes
terday's nieotlng was tho second In Its
history, which Is now so brief, but which
snows every Indication of being long and
ovontful.
This niemlicrshlp Is thoroughly repre
sentative of tho buslnoss Interests of this
city, Slnco that Urst meeting so well
havo tho objects of tho organization been
rocelveel that tho membership haslncreased
rapidly, for there sooms to bo a well lie
valopoel idea that tho iufluenco oxerted
during tho presidential campaign will
continue to bo felt during tho coming
administration of Major McKinley. In
other words, tho old political linos have
been broken to a largd extent, because
Hopubllcans and Democrats stood
shoulder to shoulder in tho fight for
honost monoy, in, the Interest of a sound
business policy for tho nation, and while
no ono can accurately ostlmato the In
fluence this National Leaguo of Business
Men will exert, tho fact that It has the
sanction of tho president-elect and of his
advisors Is a strong indication that it
will havo great power.
Tho most important business of tho first
meeting, aside from tho organization, was
tho presentation of tho ' name of John
Wunamaker as that of a representative
business man who would reflect credit on
tho state as a member of tho Unltod States
sonata. This was followed by more de
cisive nctlon nt tho mooting held yester
day. Uy iv unanimous vote It was decided
to request Mr. AVunnmoker to becomo a
candidate For somo tlmo past there have
been newspnper references to Mr. Wiina
maker's candidacy, but they havo not hnd
any olllclal basis. 'It was probably the
knowledge of this that led to tho action
taken. Tho buslnoss men showeel them
selves to bo very much in earnest In the
matter, and wero polntod in their insist
ence, as tho following correspondence,
which of itself tells tho story of tho moet
ing, will show:
