A Washington dispatch which pur
ports to give the legislative programme
that Is favored by the President in.
oludos tho question of flnanaolal re
form, and says that the President's
views on this subject are in accord
with thoso of Sonators Aldrioh,
Spoonor, Allison nnd Hanna. It then
procoods to explain that tho sonators
boliovo that tho huge surplus in the
treasury is "superfluous and even
dangerous." Honco they would pre
vent further accumulations, and thi
tlioy would do "by reducing internal
rorcmiouud not by touching tho tariff."
Tlioy will give the Amorlcnu people
tlio benefit of reduced taxutiou "rathor
than reduce tho tarifr, and thus prac
tically throw off the tax upon foreigu
goods at the expense of domostio pro
ducers." As tho iuternal rovemie is derived
from tobacco and alcoholic liqnors,
and tho tariff afreets scores of articles
which may bo classed as necessaries
in common uso, tho brilllaucy of this
distinction in bohalf of tho American
pooplo is equaled only by its pro
fuudlty. But It appears that thoro Is
u groat principle at stako nnd that tho
polloy of protection must bo strictly
ndh'rod to. Upou this interpretation,
therefore, proteclon is summod up in
tho Diugloy law. If wo depart from
that law iu any particular wo aro
traitors to protection. The (act that
it is almost prohibitive iu Homo sched
ules and producos a surplus iu others
makes no difference Its clumsy in
equalities aro sacred, and it is invio
lable in whole and iu part.
How far tho President and tho sena
tors may go toward indorsing this
grotesque notion we do not know, but
it is not sanolioued by the platform
pronouncements of tho Republican
party. Tho party has declared ex
pressly that it is not pledged to uuy
particular sohodulos, and it is much
too shrowd over to bind itsolf abso
lutely to all tho details of any tariff
law. So tho question, is not ono of
prluoln'autulllbubof.' practical poll-
ttosi Iffuuullo- Kontlmunt favors re
vision;, uud'. if.' revlHlom anntihiuM to
fludlfuvon wltliui largo-rtootibu' of th
Republican party, it is a safe gucBs
that both tho Presldont and tho sona
tors will ultimately sot forth tho
Scandinavian ImnlHratton.
In Iho record-breaking Immigration
of tho current year tho nowcomers
from Austria, Russia nnd Italy havo
boon in such great oxcoss ovor all
othors that thoy have almost monopo
lized attention. It is nevertheless
true that immigration from othor
lands is increasing at an even hlghor
ratio thnn from thoso. Tho dispatch
from Copenhagen stating that twice as
many Danes started for tho United
States in May tills year as in May n
year ago Is only ono indication of this
fact. .
In tho first ten months of tho cur
rent fiscal year, whllo tho total im
migration increased .'13 per cout ovor
tho corresponding months of 11W2 tho
Immigration fiom tho Scandinavian
lands, Denmark, Sweden and Norway,
iucreasod 15 per cent If tho pro
portion of arrivals iu May nnd Juno
boars tho sumo ratio to tho arrivals of
tho preceding ton months this year as
last tho United States will rocelvo for
tho wholo year 7,000 Danes, 25,000
Norwegians nnd 40,500 Swedes, a total
of 78,500.
This will not, however, mako 1003
the year of the greatost immigration
of Scandinavians. In 1882, tho record
year up to tho proseut for total im
migration, thoso threo lauds sent
105,320 porsons to our shores. Tho
years 1880, 1881 and 1883 wero also
years of heavy Scandinavian immigra
tion. After that the numbers fell off
somewhat, bnt increased in 1887 and
1888 and again in 1893 and 1893.
With 1804 and hard times in this
country came a swift decline, which
qontinued till 1698, when lest than
20,000 immigrants came from the three
countries together. The increase
since then haa been steady.
