Fnatprs cheek is equal to the much abused government mule. x/ 1^" Postmaster Hesing, of Chicago ' Smiles when he explains that another y$ tnan wrote the violent editorial in the last issue of the Staats Zeitung in which J *"'the Democratic Party is denounced.

"Detestable specu % ' lation," "traitors to the principle* o! j--- . their platform," "sacrifice of northern interests to the demands of ex-s'ave fe' J'barons," tariff legislation a farce; failure to correct public abuses; "boodle corrup­ tion and despotism" "spit at the plat- form," holding all the power they have -sought these thirty years and using it | for political and personal ends, "for-" ' getting the welfare of the Country. What •t' . an indictment. MTTbe Chicago Herald of Wednesday * ' starts a dispatch from Springfield with • ' the line: "Illinois Without a Head, and says it has been for twenty-four hours. About nine-tenths'of the people in this glorious commonwealth have known for some time that it has been 1 , "without a head" since Joe Fifer left off. r The Herald also says that the governor's stenographer and a colored messenger ' * boy were the . only official represen- ' t tatives of the governor in Springfield for a whole day. Even leaving out of con­ s" eideration the stenographer, the good ; '. people of Illinois think that there was just as much of a bead at the capital the H'. past twenty-four hours as there has been for some months past. The state is as j I well off with the governor at Hot Springs ' ; and the colored messenger in charge as visa versa, if the people may sit in judg- , ment. If the governor wants to go to / , Hot Springs or St. Louis or China bis colored messenger is a worthy repreaen- • tative. The governor will never be Ehrin Advocate. 13 DEMOCRATIC DOOTRUr*. Referring to Senator Hill's remark that he is "in favor of a tariff high enough to enable American manufacturers to com­ pete with foreigners so far as the differ­ ence in wages is concerned," the New York World say that "rightly interpreted and honestly applied, this is good Demo­ cratic doctrine." It would be interesting to know on what authority the World makes this as­ sertion. The national Democratic con­ vention of 1892 voted down a tariff plank embodying the principal asserted by Senator Hill, and adopted the cele­ brated plank declaring protection to be robbery and a fraud and affirming that the government had no constitutional power to levy and collect duties on im­ ports "except for revenue only." This wait officially before the country as the Democratic confession of faith. Grover Cleveland pronounced it good, and the campaign was fought and won on it. Can Senator Hill nullify all this by a mere expression of his private views, and has the World a right to say that those views, rather than the Chicago platform, constitute Democratic doctrine? These seem to be times of heresy, schism and backsliding. The agglomeration which calls itself Democracy should endeavor to --pertain where it is at. AS TO LSOIIUlTITS MPyfCMHTOY. In making some comparisons between tile progress of the Wilson bill and that of the McKinley bill through congress the New York Evening Post remarks that the latter was reported to the house April 16th, 1890, passed that body May 21st, thus consuming ten days more time in this first stage than the Wilson bill; that the McKinley bill was reported to the senate June 18th, was sent to con­ ference September 11th and emerged for final passage September 30th; that more than five monthe were thus required to carry it from first reporting to final en­ grossment, and that according to this the Wilson bill has yet a margin of three month in which to equal the record of the McKinley bill." The Poat thinks there is a good reason why tbe Wilson bill should not become a law in one-third of that time, and adds: It nia.v be as well, however, for short- memoried Republican editors to make a note of the facts we have cited, lest thev become altogether too virtuous in con­ templating the superior legislative effi­ ciency of their own party. It may be remarked, in the first place, that the facts set forth by the Post con­ clusively demonstrate that the Republi­ can congress of 1890 was a deliberative body. Vehement assertions to the con­ trary have frequently been made by the Democratic press, but tbe charge is now refuted out of the mouth of the enemy. It is to be trusted that we will hear no more of it, especially in view of the bold proposition to rush the Wilson bill through in two months less time than it took to pass the McKinley bill. As to the comparative "legislative ef­ ficiency" of the two parties, it shonld be remembered that in 1890 the Republi­ cans were revising a protective tariff with a view to increasing its efficiency. They were not striking down a measure which they regarded as iniquitious. They were perfecting a good system in accordance with certain expli itly declared principles. The key-note of their plan was protection to home industries. The nature of the task necessitated a vast amount of in quiry and attention to details. Time was required for hearings, investigations and adjustments of schedules, in order that the new tariff should be harmonious consistent, fair, faithful to its underlying principle, national in scope, and j ust to all interests. Many hours and days were also consumed in speeches from the op­ position, so that on the whole five months and a half was not an excessive- long period in which to dispose of the matter. The party which now controls congress has a much simpler task to perforn. It has discarded the principle of protection, dismissed all questions as to the effect of import duties on industry and wageft and announced that the raising of reve­ nue is the sole object to be accomplished. Now a tariff that will raise sufficient revenue for the needs of the government could be constructed in half a day. By sticking to their published program the Democrats could finish the business in short order. But they are dodging, hedging and trimming. They are bestow­ ing sectional favoritisms, violating pledges to catch votes, running hither and thither between principle and policy, and resorting to an income tax to fill a financial vacum of their own creation. This is what constitutes their legislative efficiency. The Wilson bill, is a blight on business and industry, it vindicates no principal, and does not command the support of the party responsible for it It is an outcome of cowardice and imbe­ cility, while the McKinley law is a pro' duct of constructive statesmanship. The immigration question has again been brought into notice by a recent re­ port of the bureau of statistics of the treasury department. This report states that in the year ending last June 502,- 917 immigrants arrived in the United States, 80 per cent, of whom were be­ tween the ages of 15 and 45. Of these newcomers 2,600 belong to the profes­ sional classes, 47,631 are skilled laborers 201,340 are listed under the heading of "miscellaneous occupations," being mer­ chants, farmers, common laborers, ser­ vants etc., while 230,512, or nearly one- half of the total arrivals, are described as without occupation. It thus appears that in a year of exceptional depression and business prostration we have bad an addition of over a quarter of a million to the number of persons with out any trade or specific occupation, while prob­ ably 100,000 of the same class have ar­ rived since the period covered by the re port. The great majority of them must have joined the ranks of the unemployed thus becoming subjects of expense and elements of danger. It is these idle for­ eigners, with un-American ideas, that flock together and introduce anarchistic practices that, threaten the peace of society. It is the general opinion that some­ thing should be done to restrict this class of immigration. Tbe Cincinnati Times-Star calls upon congress to enact a law "that will shiit out any immigrant who does not come to our shores with a certificate from the American consul at tbe port of departure stating that he is a person of good character and that his ant<>cendents show that he will become neither a public charge nor a malcon­ tent." The difficulty in dealing with this subject is the traditional hospitality of this country to people from other lands who are seeking homes. But genuine home seekers are not as numerous as they were fifty years ago. Too many idlers, adventurers, imbeciles and mis­ chief-makers are coming to ns, in pro portion to the number who desire to be­ come Americanized and who are likely to make good citizens. It is time to call a halt and put into effect laws which will regulate immigration. Uncle Sam may be rich enouph to give everybody a farm but he should have something to say about the kind of people who shall be permitted to overrun his domain. ill April 8, 1894. H.

A telegram from Detroit states that W. G. Thompson, of that city, who ran for mayor on the Democratic ticket only two years ago, and who has been one of the leading Democrats of Michigan, has pub­ licly renounced his allegiance to theDem- cratic party and allied himself with tbe Bepublicans. Mr. Thompson has tbe reputation of being the best political or­ ganizer in the state and was recently suggested for chairman of the state Dem­ ocratic committee. The letter of Mr. Thompson, which is very spicy, is as follows: V ̂ tnrn from New York my at­ tention has been called to an artiolp etotnig that Don bickerBon hospo^Bteii committee, which suggestion has been gratefully received by me. Now as « matter of fact, Mr. Dickereon never made •nch a suggestion to me, and if he had done so it would not have been enter­ tained by me for two reasons. Chief!v because I am not in accord with theDern ocratictie party» and, secondly, becauw feeling this I could not wish to assist in making any change in the present man­ agement of the affairs of that party in tbis state, in which wish I think the' Re- pnblicans of Michigan will heartily con­ cur. I invoke for myself the principal of freedom of individual opinion. I can only think the Democratic party has demonstrated its absolute incompetency to conduct national affairs, and I believe the} jublic weal demands the restoration of toe Republican party to power.

Edward Bellamy tells a singularly in­ teresting story in his account of "How I wrote 'Looking Backward'" in the April Ladies Home Journal, and adds to the interest by describing how the idea of Nationalism first occurred to him. Not lees personalty interesting is Mr. Wm Dean Howells in the fifth article of his literary biography, "My Literary Pas­ sions." The clever woman whom Robert Louis Stephenson married, and is now his wife, is presented in a portrait and sketch, as is also the wife of E. S. Willard the actor. Practical in its letter press and beautiful in illustrations is an article on the "The Care of a St. Bernard Dog" by Alexander Mackensie-Hughes. mana­ ger of the New York St. Bernard Kennels Madame Clanc, under the now de guerre of "Th. Bentzon," straightens out some "American Mistakes About French Women." A love-ballad, very musical by George Woodili, entitled "Tell Me," is given in its full piano score. Mrs. S. T Rorer tells of "Wedding Breakfasts;" Robert J. Burdette defines the attitude of the father toward a «on; Palmer Cox has his "Brownies" in Florida: a lull page of four atricles tells women how to open bank accounts, keep household ex penses, and how to make a will; the Rev. T. De Witt Talmage points out what are the chief "Enemies of Our Happiness:" Edward W. Bok answers the peculiar questions of "Four Uncertain Young Women;" while all through the other articles runs that peculiarly readable and popular quality which makes tbis magazine so eagerly sought for and widely read.
