Protection now seems to mean piling up taxes. In the spring the laborer’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of strike. America will continue to act as a ‘‘fence” for the stolen wares of fqreign authors. The American author should go into the ron business. He would get protection then. Nature works in a blind way. The fSeeut violent hail storm in Baltimore spared all the English sparrows and killed a motherly old hen. The Rev. Sam Jones says he does not preach for money, but he manages to get it “all the same.” His eight days’ work in Charlotte, N. C., netted him $2,000. Jones draws like a circus. The shock of electricity which was to have killed murderer Kemmler was tried on an innocent calf, and the poor thing died. Death, it is said, was instantaneous. There was only a slight motion of one of its legs. The kick, though feeble, was righteous. The eternal fitness of things is exemplified in Chandler’s howl about southern elections. Chandler was a connoisseur in southern elections in 1876. And it is a spectacle for the country to behold him now leading a movement to suppress alleged election frauds in the south. “Boss” Quay says he has no intention of resigning from the republican national com mittee while “under fire.” When an honest man is bombarded as Quay has been for some weeks he generally fires back. Quay would like to fire back, too. but he evidently has no ammunition. Many serious charges have been mode against the Harrison administration, but probably the most serious i3 that Russell Harrison is in the pay of the Louisiana Lot tery Company. Russell is supposed to make things smooth for the company with the pious P. M. G. Wanamaker. The South Carolina farmers are making quite a political clatter just now. The first gun in the gubernatorial campaign was tired by Candidate Tillman at Ridgeway on last Saturday. With the farmers in full cry the politicians must dtt some lively dodging to save their brushes McKinley thinks much more of lr i%*. trial infants than he does of the human kind. He has even put u duty on milk sugar, an article largely used in the prepa ration of cow’s milk lor infants not nour ished by their mothers. McKinley has ears only for the whines of the industrial babies. A Chinaman has no more right to smug gle himself iuto this country tnan he has to smuggle opium. Nineteen Celestials, who smugglod themselves into the young state of Washington, across the British frontier, have been ordered back to China by Secret tary VV iadom. The Pacific coast probably feels much better now. Better Immigrants Wanted. It is time fore ngress to consider seriously whether the time has not arrived for put ting an end oo the practice of a Dumber of steamship wnpun et of gathering up the refuse popo'.Ation of Europe and dumping it into this country. A committee of con gress has been at Cistle (Garden recently for the purpose of .finding out whether the contract labor law Is being violated, and also whether the immigrants who reach our shore© in such large cumbers come without solicitation or are persuaded to come by promises which are not kept. It has found out enough to justify it in report ing that a maj irity, perhaps, of the immi grants hare no thought of leaving their European homes n:il they are approached by agents of steamship companies aud led to believe that they can quickly and greatly better their condition in this country. The most of thesi immigrants are ignorant and depraved, and will never become thrifty and respectable citizens. They are able, by selling all their belongings, to get just enough money to compensate the steamship companies for bringing them here, and when they arrive they hide atvay in the most squalid parts of the great cities or make their way to the mining towns. How many of them manage to live for the first few year3 after their arrival is a mystery. Some of them are hired out in gangs to work on railroads, cn the streets of the cities and in the mines. They receive very small wages, and consequently they rob the native labor of employment It is said that some of them have been brought into the phosphate mines of the south and have taken the places of the blacks. These immigrants are of no benefit to this country. It will be extremely difficult to assimilate them. Indeed, they seem to ob ject to assimilation. They stick to their European customs, habits and language, and they apiiear to have no ambition to be come identified with the population of the country. They not only come into competition with native labor and force down wages, but they are becoming a dangerous element in politics. The stqall politicians are find ing out that they can be used to advantage, and, hence, they are in demand at elections, particularly municipal elections. The better they understand their power at the ballot box the more dangerous they will become. But why should cur aoors be thrown open to people of this kind? Desirable emigrants, those who can be readily assimilated, and who wish to better their condition, should be welcomed, but these solicited immigrants —the most undesirable part of the popula tion of Europe—who are gathered up and brought here by the steamship companies for the sake of gain, should be shut out. There is really no room for them here. The country has all the labor it needs, and also all the people of their kind that it can safely take care of. Congress should pass a law at once restricting immigration to the kind that is desirable. The Court House Bonds. Bids for $70,800 of the court house bonds will be received At the office of the county commissioners up to 2 o’clock p. m. to-day. The whole issue of these bonds is SIOO,OOO. Some time ago $30,000 of them was dis posed of, and they are now quoted at from 106 to 107. There is no doubt that these bonds are very desirable ones. There are no safer bonds. They draw 5 per cent, interest, and do not mature until 1919. The county, however, reserves the right to redeem $5,000 of them annually alter ten years from the date of their issue. The county’s financial condition is excel lent. On March last it had in the treasury $59,900 in cash, and had a bonded debt of only $30,000 and a floating debt of only $1,016. The assessed value of all property is $30,000,000, and the estimated value of it is $60,000,000. Doubtless there will be a number of bids for the bonds by persons who do not reside in Savannah. As the bonds are first-class security they ought to, and no doubt will, command a good premium. They ought to be held by residents of this county. There are a good many people in this city who are looking for safe bonds which pay a good rate of interest. They will look a long time before they will find bonds that are in every respect so satisfactory as these court house bonds. Poor ex-Empress Eugenie! Twenty years ago she was the most beautiful and admired cf the rcyalites of Europe. Last Saturday she was grossly insulted while traveling on a railway in Belgium. A man entered her compartment and began to make rude re marks to her. She appealed to the officials, but as the man produced a ticket they were powerless. The fellow then lighted a pipe and Eugenie was obliged to leave her com partment and continue her journey in a second class car. Eugenie wept bitterly, it is said, at the humiliation to which she was subjected. From a throne to insults in a railway car in twenty years! What a tre mendous change! Hymen tied the centuries in Boone county, West Virginia, recently. James Anderson was married to Mrs. Rebecca Smith, and the combined ages of four of the wedding party were 349 years. The groom is aged 101 and the frisky bride 91. The best man was a neighbor who has seen 83 winters and the bridesmaid’s years numbered 74. Cupid ought to be able to find young people to play his pranks upon. It seems cruel that he should put century-hearts to beating like trip-hammers. The Hon. W. L. Scott, of Erie, is a happy man now, and his ecstatic state of mind is due to buttermilk. Mr. Scott was afflicted with dyspepsia in such an aggravated form that life was a burden. All remedies proved unavailing, and as a last resort he tried buttermilk. The diseaso couldn’t stand that. It yielded to the seductive in fluence of buttermilk. Buttermilk is a boon. Some of the swearing statesmen around Washington are indignant because Chaplain Milburn prayed that less profuuity might be heard in congressional halls. They think that Mr. Milburn should not introduce per sonalities ids his prayers. It seams to be a difficult matter for the tan cotnm andments and the politicians to vet on terms of inti macy. Two thousand Philadelphia dudes are in an unpleasant predicament just now. It seems that the fine raiment with which they are accustomed to adorn themselves has not been paid for. So last week the tailors of the city met and blacklisted the deac.JeUows. This is very cruel to the It is said that the high license law has had the effect of closing over a thousand saloons in Baltimore. Ic must be a long ways between tjrinks in that town. TIIE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, MAY 6, 1890. Tammany Under a Cloud. The impression of the leading newspapers of New York tppears to be that Mayor Grant of that city has not satisfactorily re futed the charges which Patrick McCann made against him and Richard Croker. He has denied that the charges are true, but he has admitted that there is a slight founda tion for one of them. McCann testified that Richard Croker collected SIBO,OOO with which to bribe the aldermen of New York city to confirm Mr, Gra .t as commissioner of public work, if he should bo nominated for that office, and that Mr. Grant, when he was sheriff, gave the 3-year-old daughter of Richard Croker, on five different occasions, an envelope con taining $5,000, making in all $25,000. Of course the inference from these charges is that Mr. Croker and Mr. Grant intended to make a great deal of money out of the offi -e of commissioner of public works, and that Mr. Grant, when he became shriff, divided the income of the sheriff’s office with Mr. Croker. In his testimony fon Saturday Mayor Grant said that he never heard of the boodle fund of SIBO,OOO until McCann men tioned it. His testimony is supported by Mr. Edson, who was mayor at the time when, it is alleged, Mr. Grant was to have been appointed commissioner of public works. Ex-Mayor Edson declared that he never heard that Mr. Grant was a candi date for that office, and Mr. Grant himself said he wa3 not It is hardly probable, therefore, that a fund of $189,000 was col lected to help make him commissioner of public works, Indeed, nobody except McCann seems to have heard that Mr. Grant was a candidate for that office. It is quite fair to assume, therefore, that the part of the testimony of McCann which re fers to the alleged $180,090 bribery fund is not true. Mayor Grant in his testimony admitted that he had given Mr. Croker’s daughter SIO,OOO. He gave the money to her on two occasions, the amount being $5,090 on each occasion. He asserted, however, that there was no previous understanding with the child’s parents with respect to the gifts; that he was the child’s godfather, and that he gave her the money for no other reason than that ho loved the child, and being her godfather felt under obligations to do some thing for her. Could not Mayor Grant have gone a little further and said that he also felt that he was under great obligations to Mr. Croker, and knowing that that Tamm my chieftain would not accept money from those whom he had befriended, he had given the money to the child with the view of showing his appreciation of what Mr. Croker had done for him? It Mayor Grant could have said that the transaction would have been robbed of its ugly look. The fact that he gave Mr. Croker’s child SIO,OOO does not necessarily prove that there tvat a cor rupt understanding b9;weon him and Mr. Croker. If, however, he gave the money to the child in pursuance of a bargain to divide the profits of the sheriff’s office, he would have acted with better judgment if he had not gone on the witness stand at all. The charitable view of the SIO,OOO trans action is a permissible one. All the facts are in harmony with it. If it is the true one Mayor Grant made a mistake in not giving the facts to the public immediately after Patrick McCann testified before the investigating committee. It is apparent how a revengeful aud unprincipled man, such as McCann is reported to be, could make a transaction of thi3 kind, even though it was a straightforward and an honest one, appears to be the consummation of a corrupt bargain. The New York Tribune says: “Speaker Reed is right. Let the southern democrats carry out their theories of race domination it they will, in their state and local politics, but when congressmen are elected to repre sent the nation and to vote on questions affecting the industries and welfare of the American people, let there be a legal regis try, honest counting of the ballots aud a valid certificate of election.” What better evidence is needed than tnis that the Re publican party cares for the blacks only to the extent that it can use them to perpetu ate its power. The Republican party wants, not honost elections in the south, but the returning board machinery by which re publican candidates for congress can be counted in. Senator Hawley, speaking of the Mor rill service pension bill, begged the repub licans “not to be stampeded by the pension agents.” Senator Hawley’s advice was very good, but it had no effect, for the stampeding continued. The Hartford Cour ant now reviews it by describing the bill that has been rushed through the Housa and that will shortly coma up in the Senate as one that puts the “unscratched three months man on a level with the veteran who served through the war.” They are on a level, but in only one regard—they will both pay the same fee to the pension agents. The Republican party has two masters, the protected interests and the pension sharks. It serves them both well. TheWostinghouse Electric Light Company knocks law out as easily as the current generated by its machines knocks out life. It appears that the Westinghouse company procured the stay for Murderer Kemmler, and now it is trying to induce th 9 New York legislature to pass a bill abolishing capital punishment. Its purpose is to pre vent the use of its dynamos for the killing of criminals le3t the machines become a a object of dread to the public. This is a queor objection. Ropes have been used in hanging murderers for some centuries, but no one seems to be afraid of clothes-lines. The prohibitionists now want congres sional legislation on the liquor question. The decision of the supreme court in the lowa case makes absolute prohibition by stato law impossible. The dissenting opin ion of Mr. Justice Gray iu that case indi cates that congress iias no right to do what the prohibitionists want done. He declares that tne power of regulating or prohibiting the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors appropriately belongs to the legisla tures of the several states. It is doubtful if prohibition would find much favor with members of congress. The stock of firecrackers in this country on the glorious Fourth Is likely to be lim ited, owing to strikes in China. Taking into account all possible consignments be fore the Fourth, the supply will be only about half what it usually is. This is rough on the Fourth and the small boy The rest of the country will probably man age to survive it. The “original package” is destined to be come very popular in lowa and other pro hibition states. It will probably mean any thing from a barrel of whisky to a half-pint flask of that seductive fluid.
