Recent and reliable in- formation is to the effect that the contrac- tor requires the District of Columbia to pay him the sum of 365,761.46 for one year’s work, although the contractor is fully aware that the entire appropriation for that period is only $60,000, and that the amount stip in his contract is but $57,000. But there are two to every other, question, and if eration given the equ involved will be impossible for the unprejadiced pe nm to reach any other conclusion t that the contractor has already re very much more than the sum to whic can fairly lay claim. For four months of what was said to rior to t may, ly des to this, as y consid- it an fes :tion of the present con- ct_the c or received the unque: nably ex¢ recompense of 76146.

A step in the right direction is the Me- Call immigration bill, which has at last been favorably acted upon by the Hotise of sentatives. It has long been evident ted immigration was an evil threateningly-large dimensions, and made many suggestions inspection of the incoming agents of the general gov of those sugsesti through legisiation, riminate restr of statesmen have looking to cl tudes by Some tive obstruc but the immigra- e tion has aiwa weak just where it | § most needed The McCall bill provides the exclusion of male aliens who. beirg between the ages of sixteen a ot both read and stion wiil shut out » number of rant foreigners, but je chances are that the d rous and as—having, as a rule, sufficient knowl- to pass muster—will not be discour- ion 2 of the measure will be ncted With interest in the region of our northern boundary. It makes it unlawful for any alien who resides or retains his home in a fereign country to enter the Wnited States for the purpose of engaging in any me- chanical trade or manual labor within the Lorders thereof, residing or retaining w his home in a foreign country. The em- I t of such aliens—ex-eptions being F to seamen and deckhands and rall- read employes—is declared to be illegal, and there is provision made ‘or the Inflic~ tion of both fine and imprisonment when- ever conviction has been secur: he bill is not all it should be, but it is better than any statute we now have. Its value can hardly be estimated until it has had a fair trial, and that it is likely to have; for the Senate is inclined to go quite as far as will the House in any legislative endeavor to improve the immigrative quality. see al prophets come nearer being than usual, but the agricultural insist on keeping the weatier very much at sea. see It that the young Czar’s nu- erous good intentions will never come un- r the head of paving-material. — Belford as a Secessionist. “Revolution” has a harsh sound when it fssues from an American mouth and has t reference to a proposition to bring about the secession from the Union of all states west of the Mississippi. Yet seces- on wes openly advocated last aight in enver and there were many who cheered traitor doctrine with enthusiasm. The James Beiford, the vocally-exuberant and fiery-crowned step- of Colerado who was once well known ngress £8 “The Red-headed Rooster of sthorities »phets is hoped th Principal speaker w: tens of | the Rockies.” “Tf silver is not placed on an equality with gold,” he declared, “the time may come when the west will secede from the United States and the states west of the Mississippi river will set up a re- public of their own. The time has come when the west proposes to have something to say abeut the affairs of the govern- ment. There is darger now that a division may come in this government, and the Mis- sissippi river may become the eastern Doundary line of the new western repub- Ke." ‘Then followed a fancy sketch of the silver republic, in which, of course, he would be a prominent official. Apparently serious, there is no reason for imagining that any considerable number of trans-Mississippi Americans really view the proposition to secede as anything more than amusing. Te logical depress:on the price of silver is making Colorado and Utah gold states, and five years hence the silver folly will be on the shelf in company with the greenback craze. a Days’ Labor Instead of Contracts. The committee of the District Federa- tion of Labor in charge cf the matter is to mgratulated upon its success in bringing to a most satisfactory state the proposed legislation on the subject of days’ work in the District of Columbia. As a result largely of the labors of that com- mittee the Senat2 yesterday prompt!y passed the measure. The committee is hopeful of securing equally prempt action by the House because the measure is now supported not only by the petition of the Federation of Labor but by strongly favor- able reports from the District Commission- ers and the Sepate District committee as weil as the approval of the Senate itself. Strangely enough, when the erganic saw of the District was enacted Corgress saw tit to engraft the contract system upon the structure of the government. The ure passed by the Senate practically sals that parc of the organic law and it possible for the Commissioners to get work done In the best manner pos- sible regardless of contractors. So soon as the Senate t committee discov the situation of affairs in the District promptly agreed to the bill passed yester day and it is believed that the House Dis- trict committee and the House of Repre- sentatives will take the same sensible course. be e very —___~ «+ There are few if any citizens who would have the slightest objection to goin some inconvenience to furnish the collector with e evinces a dispo: his opportunit ———_ + ee Mr. Platt has denied that a recent to Governcr Morton had any political siz- nificance.

Advance Editorial from “Views” for June. ‘The lesson of the late disastrous con- flagration now points with all the more bit- ter irony to the force of the old maxim, “Everybody is wise after the event.” For years and years Views has urged and clamored for a proper increase in our fire department service. In fact, it so inces- sintly harped upon this tune that its editor was criticized in some quarters for exhibit- ing too much eagerness in catering to in- surance interests, though it fortified its position by pointing to similar appeals of | s in the annuai reports submit- ted to Congress; to the editorial utterances of our contempararies, The Evening Star end Washington Post, which at times so forcibly illustrated the inadequacy of men and engines to meet just such emergencies so woefully presented by the late disaster. While we now no longer doubt that Con- gress will at last make the necessary ap- propriations to insure more efficient fire protection for the District of Columbia, it is all the more difficult to bury the regret that such an awful experience as the loss of the lives of five brave firemen should have been needful to secure the remedy. It will ever remain as a reproach and as a sad commentary on the tardiness of mun- icipal and congressional action for the urgent needs of this District. ine to} ery facility so long as he | I do,” was the energetic re- | | {: | | | i THURSDAY, MAY 21, 1896-SIXTEEN PAGES, riday Bargains Johnson AND Luttrell’s, 713 Market Space.
