As to just what consti- tutes an inferior race, of course, de- rends entirely upon who happens to be speaking, as it 13 the vanity of every people and nationality to consider themselves among the superior races and to be constantly disposed to look down on those they choose to regard as their inferfors. It goes without saying that we would have no immigra- tion from other countries unless peo- ple there were convinced they would better their condition by tranaplant- Ing. It is also self-evident that the change in the ingredients in the inflow varies with the changing Industrial conditions abroad and the rising level of intelligence among the masses that breeds discontent and ambition for improvement, But the notion of what constitutes desirable and undesirable immigration has also varied in this country from time to time, those who were first here insisting always that those who come later do not measure up to their own standards. In a hearing at Washing- ton before the immigration committee of the house last month Louis Mar- shall, speaking for the Rducational alllance and other organizations en- gaged in the work of educating immi- grants and familiarizing them with American institutions and their duties as citizens, showed by quoting from contemporaneous publications ~dating from 1817 down to 1873 that the talk of inferfor races had been used ever since immigration commenced, and that the people who have helped de- velop our great resources and build up the industries of the country— the Germans, the Scandinavians and the Irish—were in turn in times past denounced as undesirables in the same manner as immigrants of the present day are denounced, so that from this point of view the coun- try has never, from its inception, had any desirable immigrants, The real test, then, of desirabld or undesirable immigration cannot be race, or nationality, or religion, but | rather the promise of useful and self- | | supporting citizenship. It can be demonstrated from our history that the newcomers from abroad readily take to the heavier or menial labor of the country, performing work which native-born Americans will not under- take, and in that' way raise the level of the labor that is adapted to higher efficiency. Without this immigrant army of common laborers it “would have been absolutely impossible for our country to have made progress at ite rapid rate, and if our gates were suddenly closed to immigration our in- dustrial growth and expansion would suffer a severe check, which would fall as hard, if not harder, on those who were here than on those who were shut out. The Price of Style. Among the numerous explanations offered and remedies suggested for the high cost of living problem the natu- ral tendency is to blame it on the weaker sex, which doubtless accounts for this contribution whose authorship in the form of mere man could not possibly be disguised. Another ftem is the price pald for style in women's garments. It is & well known fact in the retail trade that women's gar- tents, and more especially milimery, “left over' at the end of the season Is practically worthless, and that enormous Drofits must be obtalned to compensate for “the loss on ‘“out-of-style" good: ‘Women have a natural right to dress at- tractively, but if women's clothes were made in a few sensibe styles, with only Might changes from year to year, as is the case with men's clothing, enormous profits could not be obtained on them. It is probably useless to hape for reform in | this direction, but it will do no harm to call attention to its desirability. But why 1s it useless to hope for re- form when everyone knows that the only reason the women want to be in style is because the men persist in quickly passing up their feminine friends who fall behind the proces- slon? There s nothing to prevent anyone who wants to economize from buying “lett-overs” of last year's or the year before's pattern, which un- doubtedly would be much more eco- nomical. But there seems to be no disposition to retrench in this way. | Boiled down to a nutshell, if the high cost of living is in a large part due to the great cost of keeping in style, we still pay the price and feel that we are getting our money's worth, Tivs and Autos, A New York judge protests against the abominable habit of tipping and the next day a colored porter is before the court on the charge of exceeding the speed limit with his automobile. The only misfit and regrettable feature of this striking coincidence is that the porter did not come before the Judge who bad thus volced his wrath at the System of undeserved gratuities which he averred ate up most of his 97,000 salary. * The amusing incongruity of a sleep- Ing car porter buying an automobile, #s he admitted, from accumulated tips ‘Ltlnd against the evil, but where are those braver men? Say what you will about the Injustice of the tipping habit ~most people will admit that—and prate about how easy it is to break it, breaking it s quite another thing. Tipping has apparently intrenched itself as a system so that it cannot be uprodted without the co-operation of the employers of the recipients, and that is as difficult to enlist as the habit is to break. If anyone suggests that the waliter or porter should have a fair wage, one that would remove the necessity to depend on the public for his pay, the answer will be a plea of the same sort of defenselessness that Is used to excuse submitting to the im- position. A New York paper ventures the assertion that if the public would agree to tip for excellent service only and refuse to ip for poor service the problem could be readily solved. Pos- sibly, but the question remains Just how that public agreement is to be cbtained. — Home Building in the West. Tomorrow " the 'government throws open to settlement 700,000 acres of 8ood land in Chouteau county, Mont., and throngs of homeseekers are on the ground ready to secure the choice selections. As a matter of fact, the of- ficial opening is set for May 18, put In response to the keen demand Uncle Sam consented to permit occupation one month in advance. The stability of the west—its as- sured past, present and future—-is ex- pressed in these rather disorderly rushes for new land. They foreshadow permanency and character; they mean that the frugal people of the older states have come out to invest their money and morals in homes for the future, to infuse new energies and re- sources into the arteries of daily life in this great, widespreading kingdom already abounding in natural and ac- quired wealth. The government has trained Its sys- tem of colonization down to the fine point of science that makes the west a land for the settler, weeds out the transient speculator and reserves the soil for him who will live on it and tll it. It is doing more in this way to solve soclal problems of urban and suburban life than all the theoretical reformers and publicists could accom- plish in a lifetime. It does not offer a glided prize for a price, nor some- thing for nothing, but it gives good land to the man who will pay the nominal cost and comply with the con- tingencies necessary to complete his ownership of an estate. This system has not been attained without years of patience and experiment. It was in- deed a problem to evolve a fair. and mutually profitable basis on which this public land might be distributed to actual home builders, but the end Wwas attained and we are reaping the benefits, But while the western half of the United States is getting its share of the desirable settlers, it is holding no monopoly on them. Canada drew 95,000 Americans over the line into its great northwest last year, where they, too, found good land, good air and good prospects. Kxcept for the fact that the Canadian government is offer- ing a per capita premium for .Ameri- can emigrants, the movement to the Dominion cannot be seriously objected to by Americans, for the time s com- Ing when every available acre in both countries will have to be tilled to meet the economic requirements. Decline of the Rural Church. Some of the aggressive denomina- tlons are giving attention to the de- cline of the rural church, which seems to be due to two prime causes, the am- bition of young ministers for a city parish and the multiplicity of denomi- nations. Urgent as the need is for ability in the country parish, the suburban preacher who wants to get into a larger fleld 1s not different from men in any other walk of life looking for the same outlet. But if the chureh is to accomplish its work among-the peo- ple of small communities 1t will have to find men willing to work there and itself lessen competition for them by reducing the number of organizations. Thousands of villages trying to support several churches ought not to try to care for more than one. If the de- nominations could see this fault plainly enough and co-operate in a sin- cere determination to correct it they would soon find that the other prob- lem, of ministers migrating, would ad- Just itself. Ministers usually want to do the best they can for themselves and cannot always be blamed for ac- cepting an offer that affords them and their families greater opportunities to live with becoming dignity, Seminaries are often responsible for the transfer of young pastors of coun- try churches to r flelds. The seminary feel 1 interest in its graduates and when one distinguishes himself in a*rfiral church often directs to him the attention of a larger parish that may be vacant. The young man may be doing excellent work in the country and enjoying the confidence of the people who see him leave suddenly to take a larger and more inviting place. Thelr religious zeal sustains a set-back, for they cannot resist the feeling that somehow it was a desire for personal aggrandizement that led is enough to revive the crusade against tips, Byt this crusade, like all others ot its kind, will end up just as betore =“~in hopeless failure, One paper brands the judge who protested that he gave tips not because of superior , but because he would other. wise get no service at all A8 & coward, and cally on braver men to take a » - him away more than the longing to do more work for the Master who chose the byways and country places for His chiet field of labor, But how is the church to overcome this tendency? It could far better gf- ford to go straight at the task of com- binlng its forces into fewer but stronger churches than it could under. B - take to force ministers to stay in one small place indefinitely. Roosevelt in Europe. Last week was great for International comity. It would be folly to deny the equation of personal magnetism in Burope's ‘entertainment of Colonel Roosevelt, for his indomitable individ- uality would command admiration even of kings, and the brilliance of his official life, his part in the drama of world peace, would compel homage. But back of the tribute which sov- ereign Europe pays Theodore Roose- velt is the desire to be specially courte- ous to Theodore Roosevelt's govern- ment, and with all tho affectionate re- spect due and accorded this man by his own people, the deeper significance for them in these old world demonstra- tions is that they are made for an ex- pregident of the United States. Royalty has doffed its crown and peasantry paid its honor to Colonel |Roosevelt as they have done to few persons, American or other, and it may be doubted if any other individual could provoke a similar degree of en- thusiasm. It has been like passing in review before an imperial pageant. Kingdoms have vied to outstrip each other and the venerable Francls Jos- eph, emperor of Austria, most punctil- lous in ceremonies of all the courts of Europe, established a new prece- dent by receiving the distinguished vis- itor in his private apartments instead of the usual audience room and for- bade to pay him a personal call only when prevented by'a storm, then send- ing his aide. But Mr, Roosevelt must himself see in all these splendid ovations the un- derlying motive of friendship for hig country and a desire to honor it in the eyes of the world. It is a fair meas- ure, we believe, of the relative position of the United States among the great powers. No American can view the bearing of his distinguished fellow cit- iZen abroad as the guest of sovereignty without feeling a glow of pride in him and his chosen land. Crowding Out the Knocker. Truly the knocker has fallen upon hard times. The virtue of the present day of strenuous activity 1s that it has no time or place for sloth or envy. It crowds to the rear the man with the hammer. It moves on past him, leav- Ing him alone with his grouch. The only way he can catch up is to drop his handicap and hurry. People are getting happier, if they are not getting holler and the former is a good omen of the latter. They have plenty of time to work at that that is worth while, or even to play and it is one of the wholesome indica- tions of a healthy life that people in this country play as hard as they work. But business and pleasure have turned their backs upon the knocker, setting their faces to brighter skies, Yet this is a patient and sympathetic day, a day when people have time to stop and listen to the story of the other fellow and help him if he needs it. Sometimes we find in the lexicon this country, the very deflnition we want, “Tell it to the police,” is’ the sententious embodiment of this whole solemn truth, that people do not want to be annoyed with the sorry tale of the gossip-menger, the man who “bea false witness against his neighbor,” or in the nomenclature of the Ppresent day, the knocker, . Bo if you are at outs with somebody, settle the matter with him, do not bother me with it. That is the answer of the world today, a good one, -too. Even in sports this wholesome spirit prevails, indeed it dominates there per- haps more than anywhere else. It takes the form of intolerance, it is 80 pronounged. . It is the spirit of a manly age, a big age and fast, too big and fast to slow up for the little fel- low, ¢ Barbarism of Hazing, Much has been said and something done to abolish the foolish barbarism of college hazing, but the tortures in- flicted by the young women of a Con- necticut school upon one of their num- ber recently suggest the need of further restriction, This young woman was subjected to a serles of cruelties that lasted from 2:30 in the afternoon till dark. One of the ordeals through which she passed was eating and drinking of sub- stances that polsoned her stomach and to aid her digestion was forced to walk & distance of five miles, upon the com- pletion of the journey being lectured on the importance and virtue of the sorority life, which indeed by this time must have impressed itself strongly upon her mind, It seems an idle and inanely weak confession for any institution to say it cannot deal with this subject. ' If the résulls themselves in such cases are not ‘sufficlent to make young men and women know that they shall not in- dulge in customs of the sort then there is ample resource at the command of the authorities of the school to employ in making the fact impressive. It is more often a lack of will than abilify, @s In this very instance, to get at the facts and punish the offenders. The members of the board of this Connecti- cut school are restrained from doing their duty by fraternity ties, which is an evil use to make fraternity ties. It 18 & wholly mistaken fdea to connect the ordinary hazing with the so-called college spirit and condone the offense on that ground, Hazing of this kind deserves to be severely dealt with and Where school authorities refuse to do their duty the law should be invoked. The denial from Rome that the pames of the American archbishops T T of street vernacular, so common in SUNDAY BEE: APRIL 17, 1910. have been erased from the list of eligi- bles for consideration for appointment as cardinals, will be taken at face value, but actual recognition by con- ferring a cardinal's hat on an Ameri- can prelate would be still better ap- preciated, —— It Is freely predicted that the negro disfranchisement scheme cooked up by Maryland democrats will collapse when it collides with the courts. But the persistent efforts of the democrats to draw the color line, even in states like Maryland where there is absolutely no danger of negro domination, shows what would be done if the democrats had the power and no unsurmountable constitutional obstacles in the way. The negro who helps put the democratic party in power is helping to drive nalls into his own political goffin. —_— The republican insurgents are ad- vised by Representative Foss of Mas- sachusetts, who was elected to con- gress as a republican on a democratic ticket against a democrat on a republi- can ticket, to join the democratic party. If they could all be assured of renominations as democrats without glving the pladge which Mr. Foss had to glve, not to run again, the invita- tion would look much more tempting. A Demonstration.
