About 120,000 more immicrants arrived last year than in 1880, For tho three yoars 1830, 1881 and 1882, the peo- ple landing and settling in this coun- try from foreign lands numbered 1,- 915,598 or only sbout eighty-four thousand short of two millions, Ger- many and Austria sent about one- The immigration from Eigland exceeded third of last years immigravts, that from Treland by between eight and nino thousand. Nearly one hundred thousand came from Canada, a portion of whom, however, merely came through Can- ada from Europe on their way to the United States, The few figures given above are full of significance and importance. They . | show how powerful is the current set- ting in towards this country from other lands, and no doubt to some de- groo explain changes in American political and social life. About four per cent. of our fif'y millions of peo- ple have landed in this country from Europe within three years. A large proportion of the men among theso people are now voters Neatly all of them are laborers Thus at once they touch American society at two vital points, the ballot box and the labor market. The same percentage of foreign influence thrown into alinost any other country in the world, in the same space of time, and invested with powers in any sense comparable with those conferred by our laws and institations, would probably precipitate a revolution, But thus far, while it cannot be claimed that America has not felt the strain ns well as derived, on the other hand, benefit from this stream of fresh lifo poured vast territorial area, much of it yet unoc- cupied, and the peculiar elasticity of our inatitutions, and of the temper of our peopls have combined to pro- tect the country from tho evils that without such conditions might Lave enaued, It doos not follow that the tlood of imwmigration will continue for a num- into it, our republican candidates haul in their booms.

The most of them ars at once sttracted to our wossern states, and sooner or later disappear from the cast to settle on the cheap lands, awaiting settla- ment and tillage. The day has gone by when fear of the capture of our country by the foreign eloment was used as a political bugbear, Com- munitics of new settlers thus organized are quickly invaded by the school house, the newspaper and the church, those three powerful sgents of Awmeri- can civilization, and at the expiration of a few years at the furthest the strangers with their children are assimulated iuto the body politic and become loyal, intelligent sud capable American cit ans, THE CALIFORNIA PLATFORM, The republicans of California have formulated the position of the people of that atate regarding the legal status of the corporations and the demands of every class of citizens on the Pa- cific coast for laws regulating and re. stricting the monopolies. No than seven planks in the party plat- form are taken up with the discussion of anti-monopoly subjects, as follows; Sixth——Corporations are creatures of law and subject to law, and all legal means should be taken to render it imporsible for sggregations of capital to become oppressive, Soventh—Whilo we recognize the fact that the building of railroads has proved one of the most potent agen- oics in the dovelopment and progress of the country, we ut the same time rornember that the great power which loss authorized such roads to be built, including the sovereign right to eminont domain, was grauted to the railroad cowpanies by the people, for the people, and on the sole ground that the building of rail- roads 1s & public uee aud such rail- rouds public highways. We declare that railroad companies, the same as individuals, should be dealt with in fuirness and without ivjustics, but by reason of their relation to the people they must bo kept subordinate to the interest of the people within govern- mental control. The people should bo protected by law from any abuse or unjust exactions, Uujust diserim- wation sgainst iudividuals or local- ities should be prohibited, Equal service upon equal terms to all per- sons should bo vuforced, Charges for transporting persous and property should be hmited to what is required to pay the logitimate expouses of operating such railroads, their main- tonance in good repiir and a far interest on their actual value, Such valuo should bear the samo rolation to their assessed value as the value of other property docs to its asscssed velus. Charges in oxcess of this are in violation of the fundamentsl law of public use which allows railroads to be built, and we heroby pledge our nominees for railroad comwissioners to the enforeement of these priuciples by such & matesial and substantial re- ductions of fares and feeights as will socure that result, the bascs boiag cost of servico with reasonable allowance or iuterest and repiizy, as above in dicated, instead of the wmercenary ex- action of all the traflic will baar, Eighth- That the proper publie au- thoritics should nut refuse o act in regulating freights and fares by reason of lack of exact information in any artioular, if such iuformation dould given but is refused by the rail- road corporation; but in such case these authorities should act as near correctly as possible, taking ecare, however, that the public interest should wmot suffer, and holding them- nelves in readiness to correct any error, if error there should be, upon the eorporation giving the necessary inforwation to enable such error to be corrected. Ninth—We denounce the railroad contract system as a deliberate at- tempt to enslave the commerco and trade of the whole Pacific Coast, and subjugate them to the control and ca- price «f the railrond companies, It is agained public policy, becauso it seeks to make uee of the national bounty to break down hesithful competition which it is the policy of the nation to encourage, It is unjust and oppres sive, because it discriminates in favor of the strong at the expense of the weak, and offers bribes to the rich which it eollects back from the poor 1t is arbitrary and tyrannical, because it arrogantly interferes with the free- dom of trade aud proposes to prohibit those who make use of ita tranporta- tion facilities from doing businees with any one who refuses to submit to its dictation, Its existence is a threat and its abolition a necessity, The re- yublican party pledges itsolf to pro- hibit the making of such contracts by proper legislation to the extent, if necessary, of making the same 2 pub- lic offence. Tenth—Wa demand of congress legislation guverning the carrying trade hetween the atates and territo- ries. The rates of freights and fares of all railroads engaged in such trade should be justly regulated and re- stricted, and any unjust discrimina. tion between persons and places should be absolutely prohibited. Eleventh——And we are opposed to granting any further subsidies to com- panies or corporations, and in favor of the immediate revocation of all land grants and rubsidies forfeited by non- tultilment of the conditions of such grants, and the restoration of such lands to the public domain, to be held exclusively for actual settlers, Twelith—All property should pay its juat shore of taxation. The prop- erty of corporations, like other prop- erty, should be asseszed atits actual cash value, and the corporations aud individuals should be compelled to pay their just taxes without abate- ment, dimiuution or compromise. Tuk Bee commends the action of the California republicans to members of the parly in this stata, The seven plauks published above are worihy to be transferred into the platform of the republican party in Nebraska. They deal in no half-hearted way with the question of the hour. They leave no ground for trimmirg or evasion on the part of candidates. Every aspirant for any putlic office on such a platform would be pledged to active work in the iuserests of the people as against monopoly exactions and could be held strictly to his record. There has been too much wrizgling on this question in other states and the Cali- fornia republican convention may bs congratulated on the backbone they have shown in meeting the issue squarely and planting their party firmly on such a ringing platform, which is drawn in accordance with the sentiments of the people whom they represented. Dradstreet’s thinks that business men who are iutereeted in the pro- curoment of & new bankruptey law should not intermit their efforts dur- ing the congressional rcosss to secure the passage of such an act, COongress will meet again in Docember, and tho matter is likely to come up early in the session, Thore are two bills pend- ing in the senate respectively known as the Equity aud Towell plans, The former is on the calendar, and is in The Low- ell bill, for reasons already explained in these columus, is greatly preferred by the business men of the country, and Senator Hoar will make a special effort to have it passed in lieu for the equity bill. Bradstreot's be- licves that if the friends of the Lowell plan aro in eainest they may get some kind of a bankruptey act through the senate before the Christmas holidays. This done, & detsrmined effort might secure its passago through the houeo, where the judiciary committee is roady with a bill which, in its main foatures, closely resombles the Lowell bill. It will be borne in mind that the term of the presont congreas ex- pires on the 4th of March next, and that tho friends of a bankruptey law have, deducting the usual holiday re- charge of Senator Togalls, cees, less than three months in which to secure its ensctment, ————— Dorineg the past week 110 failures in this country were reported to Bradstreet’s, The figures show a de- crease of 22 from the preceding week and 6 more than the corresponding weck of last year.

Passengers Vs, Conductors. 1phia Pre s, Ia view of the tendency of courts, only recently maznifested, to mterprot contracts bstween reilroad compauies and passengers by the same rales which govern ordinary contracts, 1t behooves passengers to read their tickets and noto well the contracts they aro making, as well as the rep- resentations made to them by the companies’ officers, A short time ago judges wero holding that a ticket was good until use?, und good for a ride between the points named, in cither direction, at the option of the puc- chaser. But this can no louger be considered good law. , In u r Connecticut case, agaitiat the York and New Eogland railcoad, it decided that a hiited ticket lees except for the trip wpecy is face, Here the question of time does not seem to have been involved, but the ticket read **Good ouly for one continuous trip; no stop over atlowed.’ I'he plaintiff took the liberty, notwith- atunding, of stoppivg over at an iuter- mediate point, wud his partially used ticket was refused when he attempred to continue his trip and he was ejected. Ho promptly brought suit tor damages, but the case finally went agaivet hum, decisions that a passenger forfcits his right to proceed on the original ticket by stopping at a way-station without a *‘stop over” ticket, A passenger on the Delaware, Lack- awanna & Western road had pur- chased an excursion ticket from Mont- clair, N, J., to New Vork and return. On thetrip to New York the conduc- tor tore off a portion of the excursion ticket and handed the passenger the remainder, which he pocketed with- out looking at it. On his return in the evening he presented this ticket, but the conductor refused to receive it, asit was a ticket to New York from Montclair instead of for the return, De ng to pay, the brakeman a8 summoned, but while in the act of being eject- ed, and being still on the car, the pas- senger offered to pay; but the condue- tor's blood was up, aud the passenger was landed on the platform of a way station. For this he reco: £3,000 damages; not because his ticket was good, but because the conductor had no right to refuse his fare when he tendered it on the train. Ou the question of limited or ex- cursion tickets, the time ot which ex- pires while the owner is still traveling there are several decisions, These all assume that the contract as to time i8 & good one and must be observed by the passenger, but should be con- strued liberally in his favor. Tne New York court of appeals has decided that if a ticket is punched by the conductor on the return trip before the tim« is expired, it ia “‘used”’ within che meaniug of the contract. A St Louis case goes fur- ther, the court saying that if fhe ticket 1s presented for a passage within the period of limitation, such presentation was a using of the ticket, and entitles the passenger to be car- ried to his destivation without regard to the subscquent expiration of the day of limiation of the ticket |while en route In another case the plaintif had purchased an excursion ticket from the Pennsylvania compaay from Toledo tc Washington and return, linited to expico ou March 10, Ho loft Wash- ingtou, on his way ba at an hour which by the railrosd time-table should have brought him to Tolodo at 10:40 p. m. on March 10, By the de- Pi tsburg till March 12, and the con- ductor on the train from Pittsburg to Tuledo refused to receive his ticket on the ground of limitation, aud the er was ejected. The coupon presented was uopunched, and the There are other rccent |and teution of trains he did not reach | ratlroad »n which the delay occurred was owned by a different corpora- tion than the one from whoss car he was ejected, Plaintiff claims that his contract was wholly with the Pennsyl- vania company, which had stijulated for his transportation within that time without regard to connecting roads which was either its partuers or agents, That he did not complete the trip within the time expressed on the ticket was no fault of his. The court and jury taking a similat view of the case, the resuli was a verdict and judgment for the plaintiff, A Higher Vocation. Philadelphia Press, The New York Sun declines on be- half of its editor a nomination for governor of the state of New York, with the remark: *“We make govern ora here,” This might be true, and there would still be a better reason for declining such a nomination,in the fact that the editor of the Sun can say with truthand in the widest sense: **We make a newspaper here.” That is & higher vocation and a more im portant calling than making govern- ors, a part and only a small part of the business of making a newepaper, in which the editor of the Sun has achieved succe: Hubbell's Sentiments.

Overtures to ;the Milwaukee Road to Join the Present Quartette, What a Few Passos Jadiclously Distributed Will De. Uoncerning the Towa pool trouble the Chicago Tribune says: “The general managers of the vari- ous roads leading from this city to OCouncil Binffs held a meeting yester- day at the Grand Pacific hotel for the purpose of taking some action regard- ing the admission of the Milwaukee & St. Paul into the lTowa pool. Ever since the completion of the Chicago, Milwaukeo & St. Paul's Council Bluffs extension it has been rumored that this road would refuse to join the pocl, and that it would make war upon the other Jowa lines, There was no trath in these rumors The Milwaukee the opening of its new line has not been detected in taking businees lcss than the régular rates charged by the other lines, and the only thing that could be justly charged againet the road was that it had given annual passes to a number of prominent ship- pers at Council Blufis and Omaha. This, of course, cannot be considered a great crime, since nearly every new road opening up for business makes special eflorts to gan the good will of shippers. Yesterday was the firat time that a regular effort was made to get the Milwaukee & St. Paul to join the pool, and, while this was not ac- complished at this meeting, there is no doubt that the road will join as soon as rome sido issues have been ad- justed, the manager of the St Paul making this a condition before hia road would join the Towa pool on the terms proposed, which is the same proportion of the business as the other lines are now receiving. There wero present at yosterday’s meeting Marvin Hug- hitt, Northwestern; T. J. Potter, Burlingtun; R. R Cable, Rock Island; John C. Gault, Wabash, and 8. 8. Merrill, Milwaukee & St. Paul Mr. Merrill stated that his road was ready to jon the Towa pool upon the terms proposed—namely: that his road re- ceive the same share of the business as tho other lines, but bofore doing g0 he wouid like to see a sottlement of the difficulties botween his road, the Northwestern and the Rock Istand re- garding the Minneapolis and St. Paul business. He did not think that the Towa roads were justified in finding | fault because his road had issued | passes to a few friends of the general superintendent at Council Bluffs and Omaha. The Rock Island when it ned its ‘albert Lea" route did not s fairly towards the St. Paul and Minneanolis pool of the Northwestern ud Miweukee & St. Paul roads, Not only did the Rock Island secure business by issuing paeses, but it did not always maintain the rates ot the pooled lines. He thought it but just that before entering ‘he Iowa pool some action should be taken to stop the fight between the Minnesota ronds. He was ready to admit the Rock Island into the St. Paul pool, and ho hoped the Northwestern would cense to offer any objections toward such an arrangement. Mr. Hughitt stated that he was satisfied to admit the Rock Island into the St. Paul pool. Me. Cubli, of the Rock Island, said he was ready to enter into nego- tintions looking towards a settlement of the Minnesota troubles, as he was no more desirous than any of the other managers to have a fight on his hands, It was thereupon agreed that tho managers of the Rock Island, Nortawestern and Milwaukee & St. Paul should meet next Tuesday and try to settle their troubles regarding the Minnesota Business After hav- ing accomplished this object notice is to be given of another meeting of the Towa pool lines to reorganize the Towa pool by taking in the Milwaukee & St. Paul, Railroad Notes.
