THE ALIEN LAW. It Is Unforced nt Alt the 1'. It. O. & I. Company's Collieries, The now alien tax law went Into effect yesterday and the P. & K. C. & I. Co. lias alroady enforced it. Tho law taxes all unnaturalized foreigners iu employ of cor porations three cents per day, which sum must be deducted from their wages. On Wednesday tho P. & It. C. & I. Co. issuod notices In this district ordorlug every foreigner to brine his naturalization papers with him to work yestorday. Those who are In possession of such papers ore highly elated and thero is no doubt but that thoy will readily accedo to tho demand. Tho trouble, which it was feared would result in several using tho same papers, will be obviated in having n day set for ovoryono to present their proof of naturalization. The idea of straightening tho matter out at tho beginning and not allowing it to proceed until the pay roll is completed, is a good one and ono that should be followed by every other corporation, thus saving trouble at that time and preventing the carrying out of scheme to ovado paying this tax. Failure to comply with tho order permits of no leasonable excuse, as tho matter has been mado perfectly clear. Tho only liopo for reaping the full benefit of this law lies with tho various county judges, who iu their naturalizing processos should maintain a strict examination, highly necessary iu this case, as tho applicants will bo many who would ovado tho tax. A uotico has also been served on each fore man of the Hallway company that ho should at once discharge, all foreigners employed, in order to savo tlie' troublo that will arise from enforcing tho new law. This action of tho company's is all its own and the action is nearer to what was dosired by tho framers of tho new law, and wo roup thobenofit. Whllo none tu our knowledge is employed in tho transportation department, yet hundreds find employment in tho repair gangs. Al though otrectcd through tho instrumentality of a law, yet the company showed a proper spirit in putting a construction upon tho law that virtually means tho oustlug of ovcry unnaturalized foreigner from their employ.
