CHIN immigration into Canada is to be allowed to continue with no other restriction than the per capi t. of B850. The labor interests of the Dominion want legislation that will put a stop to this immigration, but in view of the fact that Canada is endeavoring to increase her trade with China Sir John Maec- Donald declined to consider any pro- posal for such legislation. By way of placating the labor element, the premier stated that nearly every Chinaman now arriving in Canada made his way across the border into the United States, and therefore the Dowminion suffered nothing from Chineso immigra- tion. It is to be presumed that Sir John MacDonald did not make this statement without knowledge, and if it is a fact that the law of the United States ex- cluding the Chinese is being thwarted in this way the matter should be inves- tigated. It is probuble, however, that wo shall never be able to mako exclu- slon entirely effective so long as China- men are allowed to enter Canada, and there will be no change in the policy of our northern neighbor whiie the admin- istration of affairs continues in the hands of the party now in power, sod tothe | | IMPORTED LABOR. According to information furnished the treasury department alien labor under contract has been rather freely imported into the country recently., A vs ago the superintendent of im- | migration at New York detained a r of Austrian immigrants who had d into a contract to work in 2o, and the dispatches state that iron puddlers, glass cutters, glove rs and miners have arvived in the within a short time having labor engagements en- tered into before their departure from Europe, All this is in palpable violation of the law prohibiting the importation of alien labor under contract, the terms of which are clear and explicit. Tha fact that the pas ages of the persons detained was paid by agents of the companics importing them is also a violation of the act relating to immigration passed by the last congr Tho superintendent of immigration proposes to ascertain whether the alien labor lnw can be enforced by instituting proceedings in the courts against the s which have imported foreign workmen. The penalties for a violation of the law a finenot exceeding compan e 000 or imprisonment not exceeding one year, or both, The duty of the treasury wuthorities is obviously to proceed unst tho violators of the law promptly and vigorously, and if sus- tained by the courts, as it is not doubted they will be, to put into force whatever mensures ure necessary to the full and Tective enforcemont of tho law ho alien labor law of 1885 was faulty in some sects, und theso dc were removed by the new immigration dct, but the principle of the law is sound, and has the support of all intelligent men outside of the corporations which would like to have the privilege labor in order to be able to dictate whatever conditions they ple to American labor. The demand for the alien [abor law grew out of tho way in which corporations we bringing armies of foreign labol into the Unitod States under contract to work for very much loss than the prico of labor in this country, and building up here asystem of white servitude more eruel and oppressive than negro slavery ove sylvania of freely importing alicn S0 The mining districts of Penn- W nd Ohio were fllled with this class of labor, and it was largely employed in the iron mills of those and other states. gents of the corporations were kept in Europe to induce people to enter into contracts to come to this country, and labor con- tingents were always ready there to be sent over whenover tha corporations re- quired their services by reason of the discontent of their employes or th determination to adept a policy which they expected to produce disturbance. Consequently there was steadily pour- ing into the country a flood of the cheap- est foreign labor, demoralizing the home market and adding to the popula- tion an unwelcome element which has from time to time made itself very troublesome, not always without justitication. Tho corporations were mevciless when they had their vietims firmly in their grasp. The dangerous proportions attained by this system demanded restrictiv logislation, and the act of 1885 was passed with very general public approval. The importation of alien labor was checked, but the law has never been enforced as it was intended to be, and undoubtedly many thousands of alien laborers have been brought into the country under contract since its passage. The present administrat s determined to enforce the law it it is sustained by the courts, and it will have theappro try in doing so. OUR FOREIGN COMPE Itis presumed that no udvocate of reciprocity has imagined that the United States would be allowed to go on making closer trade relations with the other American countrios without being con- fronted by a vigorous opposition and competition from the Kuropean nations having a large commerce with those countries. It has been obvious to those who have given this subject eareful con- ation that this would be the most serious difficulty to be overcome. What- over concessions European governments side may bo willing to make to the political policy of the United States with respect to the nations of this hemisphere, as defined in what is known as the Monroe doctrine they ure not disposed to surcrender ar of their commercinl advantages. Thes: they will make a most vigorous and per- sistent contest to rotain, and the strong foothold they have gives them a po: tion from which they will not be easily driven. It is well to understand, there- fore, that while the reciprocity volicy has thus far met with unexpeeted suc- cess so faras arrangements perfected and promised ara concerned, the signing and r tion of agreements does not necessarily insure us - the trade, nor can wo bes certain of permancnce of sueh arrangem This should cause no hesitation in push- ing the policy, but consideration of it must tend to modify the more sanguine views as to immediate results., The full fruits of reciprocity we cannot reasona- bly expect to gather at once. Some time ago it was reported that I'rance proposed to ask Brazil to enter into trade arvangements similar to those the made with the United State It is highly vrobable she will do this, if she has not already done so. But a far more significant move has been made by the British gov- ernment, According to a recent dis- patch Lord Salisbury has directed the commereial department of the foreign office to make a study of the new com- mereial treaty United States, evidontly asking Brazil to between Brazil and the with a view to nt equally favorable terms to Great Britain, [t appours that the cotton manufacturers of England, whose trade with Brazil amounts to over $12,000,000 annually, and who have a large representation in parliament, are alarmed at the urrangement for admit- ting American cotton goods into Brazil at rates of duty 25 per cent less than ave imposed upon simlar goods munufy tured in Great Britain, while other Brit- ish munufacturers are no less concoerned about the discrimination which the new arrangement maikes in favor of Ameri- ' can articles. There is an annual trade of more than 830,000,000 at stake, and such influential men as Joseph Cham- | berlain and Lord Harti o manding of the government some action | to protuct it. It need hardly bo sald | | that tho government is most willing to accede to the demand, and it 1y bring atremendous pressure to bear in the in- terests of this valuable commerce. re many also has large interests in Brazil and other outh Ameri ; can countries to protect, and | bo expected to sooner or later make a aemand that they shall be given | equally favorable consideration with the | | interests of other countries. Meanwhile it well known that the European financial and commerctal houses repre- sented or interested in Brazil are ex- ceedingly active in theirefforts to create hostility to the reciprocity arrange- ment with the United States, These are the formidable rayed against the Americs reciproeity which st be consided weighing the chanc success of that pol gton bo forces ar- v scheme of d in of the permanent It is not dif cult to understand that with tho advantages they now have Dy reason of their strong financial and commercial foothold in South Ameriea.

IT TO COMPETITION. terest in the y of this cit to rank among \n prove AV ank well-being and will almost e Morrissey’s 1 prosperi ititle him it benefactors, He comes before the council now with several ordinances drawn by himselt, for himself, and wants them to be passed forthwith., Mr. Mor- rissey says he is convinced that the right thing to do about the garbage business just now iy to create a salaried office,which of course means an office for Morrissey, and let the city levy tax of five cents a load on all gar- bage, which he estimates will yield & revenue of 8,000 your. This is very suggestiv rissey was garbagemaster was $1 a load for ¢ cent, of the cost of hauling for ashes, rbage and manure and $2 per head for dead animal The whole income went into the pockets of Morrissey and such silent partners as were him in this lucrative business. To a mathematical term if five cents a will be equal to $8,000 a how much did the old yield at the figures above mentionex Now what is the use of having any sal- aried ofticer? Why not lot the chief of police detail one or two patrolmen to in- spect alleys and premises und compel proper cleanliness by the officers that can make arrests and bring offenders be- fore the proper tribunal? Under such an arrangement the collection and haul- ing of all garbage and refuse would be open to competition, and if it 1s desira- ble to confine this work toa dozen men let them be licensed and compete with each other, When Mor- the charge and 25 per pools backing use load TROUBLED WITH A SURPLUS. Whenever there is any money in the city treasury in any one of the funds there is anitching disposition to provide aschemo to do away with it. The $18,- 000 surplus in the city lighting fund has becomo a sourco of great anxiety for more light in certain quarters. It is now proposed to spend this sur- plus for gasoline, gas or electrie lights and proposals are invited. Asa matter of fact the proposals are a mere sham. The surplus is to be distributed so as to yield the largest rovenue to the electric lighting concern, The question naturally presents itself why the city should pay the same price for additional electrie lamps that it is now paying for the first plant? We ure now paying $175 a year lamp when Lincoln only pay: lamp. per 3120 Why can’t lamps be furn- ished as cheap in Omaha as in Lincoln? We are paying for 2,000- candle-power lamps, but that also is a delusion and a snare. Tho so-called 2,000-candle-power lamps only range from 800 to 1,200 candle-power, and while the light they give is sufficient there is no reason why Omaha should be taxed more than other towns similarly situated, unless it is because the pliant councilmen that are always ready to do the bidding of the electric lighting monopoly, have to be subsidized. JunGe DUNDY will receive and merit the thanks of the citizens of Dawes county and the entire frontier for his leniency toward the settlers arraigned before him upon the charge of violating the United States timber laws. Tech- nically there is very little doubt of the uilt of some or all the parties arrested. They cut timber from government land and sold 1t for profit. The circumstances of the settlers, however, are a suflicient palliation of the offense. The crops had failed and destitution staved them in the fuce. Thetr only resource was the seraggy cedars upon Uncle Sum’s sandy domain in the hills and canon: By hard work a load of this timber could be cut and hauled to market in two days. With the proceeds food and clothing were pur- chased for families who might other- wise have suffered from want. The deputy marshals unquestionably — did their duty in making these arrests. They will be rewarded with fees and mile- age, but when the cases were called and the facts cited the tender hearted judge and the fair minded district attorney agreed that the majesty of the law re- quired neither a costly trial nora se- vere sentence, and many of tho cases have been dismissed. The poor fron- tiersmen are put to great inconvenience and loss by their arrest, but it is worth something to them to be vindicated and to learn that o United States court is neither a cost mill nor a stern, unrelent- ing institution for the punishment of technical violations of the statutes.

Dr. Harsha applied the text to the natural ability of professing Christians and drew out some very valuable conclusions with 1e: to duty.” He congratulated the Meth people upon the crection of the splendid new church and said that it was a substantial token of triumph for Christianity in Omahi and should ve hailed with joy by every de- nomination as a great encouragement to press forward. “Now is the time,” said thespeaker,“when Omaha should be taken for Christ, it ever the work is to be done, and the churches 1 should help each other and stand shoulder to shoulder in the struggle agaiust sin." the NAMEE'S DEF M NSE, Attempts to Show That the Nichols Woman Died trom Bright's Disease, In the McNameo murder trial the stute closed its side of the case yesterday after- noon and the defense introduced the testi- mony of four witnesses. Frank Homilton, a bosom friend of Me- Namee's was at the King house the night of the row. He went with the prisoner and left at the time he took his departure. Witness contradicted all the witnesses for the state and denied that McNamee struck the Will- iamson woman that night. She was treated in a most affectionato man- ner by MeNamee. Witness also identificd letters that purported to have been written by the Willinmson woman. In these sho addressed MoNamee in the most ende: ing terms. Hamilton also swore that upon sevoral oceasions when Dr. Chadwick testi- fied that Isie Williamson was unablo to leave her room, she was at tho Full Dress saloon, where sho drank wine and other liquors with witness and the defendunt, e es, and safe blowers are doing plenty of skirmishing theso fine moonlight nights; but as they make vory fow hauls that amount to auything it seoms that they are taking advautage of the apathy and indiffer- ence of the poliee to do a hittle work simply for exercise and practice i order to “kecp their hands Tuesday night th The burglars sited the store of Will- iam Cummings at 1617 South Sixteenth street and waltzed away with §i in cash, T also called at the gr store of Hansen & Co., at Sixteenth and Webs where they so- cured $1.35 1w silver and from the till.
