UNLOADING UPON AMERICA.
Tho Philadelphia Fress of April 27th
contained the following story:
Aij American physician who has been
studying in Germany for tome time readied
llils city yesterday, and m speaking ofthe
immigration question .aid that one effect of
the new law was demonstrate-, in a start-ins
manner during a lecture that he recently a£
tended with many other student- In one of tiie
German universities.
"The lecturer produced before the class an
idiot." said, iho AmeitoW doctor to a Preaa re
porter, "and.after discoursing upon hi.. condi>
una. Said to lis class: 'Nos-, -entlemen,l
Miall send this patient into our own rural dis
tricts, of course. It bets been '.-ur coatom here
tofore to send Idiots and tbe pauper insane to
Ameriaa. Hut laws were enact _ a short, time
ago which made sncb a course difficult. We
might be able to slip this man iuto one of their
ports, bnt th"' chanct - are against It.'
•*That Is what a Gorman medical professor
told us students," continued the physician,
"and you know that the professors there act
under the direction of the Government. Bnt
thisls not all. I was told In Austria,npon
what I believe to be good authority, that per
sons convicted of iruae there aie m great
Bombers of cases given the alternative of go
ing to prison or emigrating to Ameii-ja.''
This i 3 but one of the many proofs that
might be adduced that Europe hus long
been unloading her undesirable element
upon tho United States. Lunatics, idiots,
paupers, criminals, and the physically
helpless, have been dumped into the
United States for twenty years or more.
It is a bit of economy upon the part of
European States. They are saved money
by shipping away those likely to become
permanent charges upon their communi
ties.
Tho new immigration law is really in
eflect but a repetition of an old enact
ment. It provides that "all idiots, insane
persons, paupers, or persons likely to be
come a public chargo shall be excluded
from admission into the I'nited States."
The original Act was passed in ISS2. It
read that no "convict, lunatic, idiot, nor
any person unable to take care of himself
or herself without becoming a public
charge" should "be permitted to land."
During the nine years of the latter law
it was but feebly enforced. Certainly it
did not have the eflect desired. Under
the new law the conditions would not be
bettered, were it not for the awakened
public sentiment behind it, so truo is it
that no law is worth the paper upon
which it is printed if it is not fortified by
the sentiment of the people.
The New York Times is authority for
the statement that since 1884 the Board of
Charities and Correction iv that State
has sent back to Europe moro than COO
lunatics, imbeciles, feeble-minded and
similar incompetents, two-thirds of
whom were Landed in that port. In every
case they had been shipped to America by
the authorities of tha cities or towns
whence they came, or by immigration and
"bonevolent" societies, or, in a few cases
by relatives or guardians. In all cases
they became public charges immediately
upon arrival.
Yet this 600 represents but a small por
tion of the whole number of the "unde
sirable" that have been dumped upon our
shores. Tho same paper, the Times, de
clares that it has proofs that in many
cases the town authorities in Europe
shipping these people to us actually se
lected the hospital, asylum or poor-house
in this country for which the miserable
creatures should bo headed on landing.
In no instance of reshipmentofthe.se un
rmbleabj the Hoard of Charities has
there been any complaint from Europe
becauso of the return of the "bad lot."
Tho increase oi' ihe insane in the asy
lums of New York waa 6,488 between
October 1. Ish), and t >ctober 1, 1880, or 08
per cent.: bnt the increase of population
was but IS per cent. Here, then, is the
key to ono reason lor this amazing in
crease, from 9,507 to 16,022 of insane in
New York in ten \,
What is now n< eded is that the new law
shall be enforced, not only at tho ports of
entry, but at the Canadian border, for it
is in evidence that a great many incompe
tents aro sent in by that route. The pub
lic sentiment in tho I'nited States is now
ripo for stringent enforcement of the law.
Tho American people are of one mind
upon the question. We want tho flood
gates at New York, Philadelphia, Boston
and New Orleans closed, and rigid in
spection maintained all along the bonier.
The proposition has been made seri
ously, and it is not impossible for it to
take the form of a demand upon Congress,
to which that body will affirmatively re
spond, that European nations shall be
ftrmalt* PH& firmly warnM frntwi^h
shipments by authorities in Europe, will
bo deemed an unfriendly act. Certainly,
if we shipped our convicts to Germany
or Austria, and our paupers to France,
we should ox pect to hear from those na
tions in an official and emphatic manner.
At any rate, the import of undesirables
must stop. It will be easy enough to
turn back the tide of idiots and insane
and of the physically helpless; it will be
somewhat difficult to single out the
paupers, but it can be done fairly well.
It will bo exceedingly difficult to detect
the criminals. The only certain method
to prevent theso from slipping in will be
to require Consular certificates from the
American Consuls at the port of depart
ure, showing that the character of the
emigrant has been established under
proof before the Consul, and an affirma
tive statement that he or she is not of the
criminal class, and has not been con
victed of felony or otlier crime rendering
the acquisition of the emigrant undesir
able. Such a plan has been proposed in
Congress. It will certainly be renewed
in December, and there appears to be no
good reason why it should not become
the law. The honest intending emigrant,
having a clean character, being strong
and helpful, and so provided that he is
uot likely to become a public charge, will
havo no difficulty in making proof of the
facts betore an American Consul in his
own country. The privileges and bene
lits this nation offers to the desirable
emigrant are certainly worth the trouble
of making the necessary proof of fitness.
COLLECTIVE OR DISTRIBUTIVE.
Elsewhere we print a communication
solicited from Mr. Win. 11. Mills, who
has given the subject of California's ex
hibit at the World's Fair at Chicago,
much investigation and study. In his
letter, which we have deemed essential to
a clear understanding of the issue in
volved between a collective and a dis
tributive exhibit, Mr. Mills makes it
clear that both characters of exhibit can
be made at the Columbian Exposition.
That is, there is nothing whatever to im
pair the right of, or discourage any indi
vidual exhibits in competition for awards,
in the general exposition promoted in
the buildings under coutrol aud direction
of the National Commission. But Cali
fornia as a State, made a specific appro
priation for a clearly-e , pressed purpose;
that is, to promote a collective exhibi
tion of California products in a California
building. This scheme should be car
ried out, indeed must be if the State's ap
propriation of ?-;00,('00 is to be used.
Theso facts the letter makes so clear
that we deem it ot* importance that it
should be generally read. The reasons
for the position taken, the distinction be
tween tho two classes of exhibits, and
the true intent of the Legislature are
made so (dear and emphatic, that the
reader will agree, alter perusing the let
ter, that there remains no longer any
doubt whatever concerning the duty of
the State Commissioners.
CASTELAR ON SPAIN.
Emilio Castelar, the Spanish statesman
and scholar, notwithstanding his politic
adhesion to the parly of the crown, be
lieves that the march of Spain is towards
democracy. In the May number of the
Fomm he declares himself as of the old
faith that once led him to the Presidency
of a brief republic in Spain. Ho says of
the progress of toleration and human
freedom:
When we compare what our Spain WM un
der tbe Congress of 1 . 7o' with what the is to
day, the realization of kj much practical prog
ress and the harvest or so many democratic
ideas seem like a dream. * * * *
Trials were then held secretly, as ln inquisi
torial times; Jastice now seeks the Light, riv
ing greater security to the citizen. We then
depend- d on tribunals which themselws were
dependent upon the Government; popular
jury trials to-day gtve hack to the people the
ton most of all sovereign attributes—the ad
ministration of justice. Onr party, called
Jactious by the public power, and as "such per
secuted, was then declared Illegal; to-day re
publican doctrine- can be preached m the
lii?lit of day, and will be carried oat, when
the nation shall hold it tit, within the bounds
of legality, lieetlngi then could be beld only
through the tolerance of the Government;
now we assemble because our right to do so
is acknowledged by the law. The Minister of
the Interior then bad the sole power 0_ grant
rnits to publish newspapers, and lie
subjected Journals to capricious suspensions
and .suppressions. To-day. any Spanish eiti
_en can found a paper without makings de.
posit or giving tbe name ofthe responsible
cd.tor; and the excesses of the press are re
strained by ordlu.iry penal legislation and
punished by public conscience and public
opinion. » * * * xiie only thing
wanted to complete all this marvelous evolu
tion was to extend to all the privilege of vot
ing, formerly enjoyed by a few. Universal
safftage, promulgated In June, 1889, makes
Spain a complete democracy—a free and pa r
hamcniary democracy.
Rut it is not a democracy in a republic,
and without that conjunction it cannot
be free government. Castelar is apolo
getic. Feeling that Spain is not ready for
republican forms be acts -with the party
of the Government whilo preaching re
publican doctrine. This position has lost
him the sympathy of lovers of free gov
ernment, which he once enjoyed. Yet
Ca.stelar is right; he is ready, but Spain
is not, for a republican form of govern
ment. He is content to wait, therefore,
for the evolutionizing process to work out
the desired end, rather than rack his
country with revolutionizing schemes.

WHAT IS THE GRIP?
This Mysterious and Terrible Disease
Carefully Analyzed and Described—
What to do When It Comes.
Nearly every physician every scientist and
ever}* sufferer has been asking this great ques
tion: What is the grip? Some have asserted
that it is a dangerous microbe which comes
Into the system, breeds several millions every
second and soon overruns the body with dis
ease. Others have said that we are passing
through a region of star-dust, and that the
minute particles are drawn into the body with
every breath. Whatever it may be, it is certain
that it is something within the body which is
righting with the body to undermine the life.
What would common sense dictate In such
an emergency? Counteract the enemy. Drive
it from the system. Do not trifle with it. Act
promptly and wisely at the first approach,
which you can readily detect. Take something
which cau counteract their deadly influence.
Spirits of some kind are the best thing to take,
and whisky is preferable to any other kind of
spirit; but it should be borne very carefully in
mind that only pure whisky will have the
eil'ect, and it should also be remembered that
Dufly's Pure Malt Whisky stands at the head
of all preparations, and is the only medicinal
whisky upon the market. Scientists have as
sert.-.! tliis, tlie doctors liave verified it, and
millions of people have proven it beyond a
doubt. There are many unscrupulous dealers
who will assure you that any whisky will
answer the purpose, but they sure wionc ami
aie trying to deceive you. In case of grip you
cannot afford to take any chances, therefore
;t';e that which is beyond question pure,
medicinal and the only valuable whisky upon
the market. s
