THE IMMIGRATION PROBLEM
During the ft c l year ending with
last .Tano tty immigration to the
United SUles amounted to 789 00.1
nearly eight hundred thousand. About
120,000 more immigrants arrived lasl
year than in 1880. For the three
years 1830 , 1831 nnd 1882 , the poo.
plo landing , and cultlitiK in this conn
try from foreign lands numbered ! ,
! )15o')8 ) , ) or only obout eighty-foui
thousand short of two millions. Ocr
many nnd Austria cent about ono
thud of laat years immigrants. Tin
immigration ftom K.igland cxcoedet
that from Ireland by bctwcei
eight and nine thousand. Ncnrl ;
ono hundred thousand cami
from Canada , a portion of whom
however , merely came through Can
nda from Europe on their way to tin
United States ,
The few Figures given above nro ful
of significance and importance. The ;
ahow how powerful is the current setting
ting in towards this country fron
other lands , and no doubt to some do
grea explain changes in Americai
political and social lifn. About foui
per cent , of our fil'y millions of people
plo have landed in this country fron
Europe within three years. A largi
proportion of the men ninonj
thcso people are now voters
Neatly all of them are laborers
Thus nt once they touch Amtricar
society at two vital points , the ballot
box and the labor market. The sami
percentage of foreign influcnco thtowr
into almost any other country in the
world , tu the name space of time , and
invested with powers in any conic
compnrablo with those conferred bj
our laws nr.d instilutioiiH , would
probably precipitate n revolution ,
But thus far , while it cannot bi
claimed that America Ins not , felt the
strain na well r.s derived , on the other
hand , benefit from this stream of fresh
life poured into it , our vast
territorial nro.i , much of it yet unoc
cupied , and the peculiar elasticity ol
our institutions , nnd of the tempoi
of our people hnvo combined to pro.
tcct the country from the evils that
without ouch conditions might have
ensued.
It does not follow that the Hood ol
immigration will continue for u num
ber of years us great as it has during
the past three years , but the iudicv
tiona now favor the appearance of as
largo , if a not larger number thia ycat
than came over in 1881-82. The
most of them are at once attracted to
our woasorn states , and sooner or latei
disappear from the east to settle
on the cheap lands , awaiting sott'fv '
mont and tillngo. Tlio day haa gone
by when fear of the capture of oui
country by tlio foreign ulomont was
used ai a political bucboar. Com.
inanities of now settlers thus organized
nro quickly invaded by the school

THE Cfi.LIFOR.NI A. PLATFORM
The republicans of California have
formulated the position of the people
of that state regarding the legal otatui
of the corporations nnd the denmndi
of every claaa of citizens on the ! '
cific coast for l.xvrs regulating nud re
striding the monopolies. No loai

of anti-monopoly subjects , aa follows

it arrogantly interferes with the free

Tooth Wo demand of congrea

Twelfth All property should pa ;

inunt , diminution or coinprominu.
THE BKE commends the action o
the California republicans to member :
of the party in thia stnto. The novci
planks published above nro worthy tc
bo 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 tnmmiug or evasion 01
the part of candidates. Every
aspirant for nny public office
on fiuch a platform woule
bo pledged to active work
in the , ii.oeroats of the people as
ngainat monopoly exactions and coule
bo hold strictly to his record. There
has boon too much wriggling on this
question in othrr states and the Call
fornia republican convention may b :
congratulated on the backbone they
have shown in meeting the iaauc
squarely and planting their party
firmly on nuJi n ringing platform
which is drawn in accordance with the
sentiments of the people whom they
represented.

matter is likely to como up early ii

as the Equity and liowoll plans. Thu
former is on the calendar , nnd ii it
charge of Senator Ingalla. The Low-
oil bill , for reaeoim already cxplumee

by the bnsinces inon of the country
and Senator Hoar will make a spccia

for the equity bill. Bradstrcol'o be

Thia done , a dotsrmined clhirt might

In view of the tendency of courts ,
only recently manift steel , to interpret
contracts bit < reen ru.ilru.id compiiiitt
and passengers by the same rules
which govern ordinary contract/
behooves passon un to read tlieit
tickets and note well the contrac'e
they are making , as well as the rep
resentations inudo to them by the
companies' officers. A ahort time ago
judges were holding that a ticket was
good until ued , und good for a ridt
between the points named , in cithet
direction , at the option of the pur
chaser. But this can no longer b.
considered good law.In a recent
e
Connecticut case , aguiiint the Nor
York and Now England railroad , it iv.-u
decided that a lunite-el ticket ia wjrth-
jeea except for the trip npvciiud ! on
i.s faco. Hero the question of lime
does not aeem to havu been involved ,
but the ticket reud "Good only fur one
continuous trip ; noctop ovorallowed. '
I'lm plaiutiIf took the liberty , ncitwith.
atiindinq , ot stopping over ut an intermediate -
mediate point , und Jns partially used
ticket was rtfiued when ho attempted
to contmua lnu trip and ho wiu
ejected. Ho promptly brought suit
tor damages , but the case finally went
ogainet htm. There are other recent
decisions that a passenger forfeits hi ;
right to proceed on the original ticket
by stopping at a way-station without a
' 'atop over" ticket.
A paasnngor on the Delaware , Lick-
awanna & Western road had pur
chased an excursion ticket from Mont-
clair , N. J. , to Now Vork and return.
On the trip to New York the conduc
tor tore oil'a portion of the excursion
ticket and handed the passeiiuor the
remainder , which ho pocketed with
out looking at it. On his return in
thu evening ho presented this ticket ,
but the conductor refused to receive
it , as it was n ticket to Now York
from Montclair instead of foi
the return. Declining to pay ,
the brakomnnvaa summoned ,
but while in the act of being eject
ed , and boint ; atill on the car , thu pas
senger offered to pay ; but the conduc
tor's blood waa up , and the passenger
was landed on the platform of a way
station. For this ho recovered $0 000
damages ; not because his ticket was
good , but because thu conductor had
no right to refuse hi * fnro when ho
tendered it on the train.
On the question of limited or ex
cursion tickets , the time ot which ex
pires while the owner is atill traveling ,
thuro aru several decisions. Those
all assume that the contract as to time
is a good ono and must bo observed by
the paseengor , but should ba con
strued liberally in hU favor.
Tno New York court of appeals
lias decided that if a ticket ia
punched by the conductor on the
return trip before the tim * ia expired ,
it ia "used" within the meaiiiugof the
contract. A Sc. Louis case goes fur
ther , the court saying that if the
ticket is presented tor a passage
tti'hiu the period of limitation , such
presentation waa a using of the ticket ,
luid entitles the passenger ( o bu car-
nod to his destination without regard
to the tubuquent expiration of the
day of lirui tiou of the ticket
nhilo en route. Iti another
- o the plaintiff had purchased
m excursion ticket from the
I'onnsylvanitt company from Toledo
: o Washington and return , Ii nited
: o expire ) on Much 10. llo loft Wash
ington , on hia way buck , nt an hour
ivhich by the railroad iiiue-tablo
ihnuld have brought him to Toledo ut
10:40 : p. in. on March 10. By thu do-
ention of trains he did not reach
i .Uburg till March 12 , and the con-
luctor on the train from Pittsburg to
Toledo refused to receive hia ticket on
ho ground of limitation , aud the
lasseiiger was ejected. The coupon
ireaonted was uupunched , and the
railroad on which the delay occurred
I was owned by a different corpora
tion than the ono from vhojs car he
waa ejected. Plaintiff claims that hie
contract was wholly with the Pennsyl
vania company , which had stipulated
for hia transportation within that
time without regard to connecting
roads which waa either its partners or
agents. That ho did not complete
the trip within the time expressed on
the ticket waa no fault of his. The
court and jury taking a similar view
of the CMU , the result wna a verdict
and judgment for the plaintiff.

Concerning the Iowa pool troubl
the Chicago Tribune says :
"The general managers of the viui
oui roads lending from thia city ti
Council Bliiffj hold n meeting yeslei
day at thu Grand Pacilic hotel for th
purpose of taking some action regard
ing the admission of the Milwaukee '
St. Paul into the L > wa pool. Eve
oincu the completion of the Chicnpn
Milwaukee & St Paul's Council Bluil
extension it has been rumortd tha
thia reid would refueo to join th
pucl , nnd that it would make wi
upon the other Iowa lincc. Thcr
waa no truth in these rumors
The Milwaukee it St. Paul nine
the opening of its now Jiuo has no
been detected in taking busincs
lean than the regular rates charged b ;
the othur lines , and the only thin :
that could bo justly charged ngaine
the road was that it had given annua
passes to a number of prominent shippers
pors at Council Blutfa aud Omaha
Thia , of course , cannot bo conaidcrei
a great crime , since nearly every net
road opening up for business make
special ellorts to gain the good will o
shippers. Yesterday waa the Cra
time that a regular effort wan made ti
get the Milwaukee & St. Paul to joii
the pool , and , while this was not ac
complished nt this meeting , there i
no doubt that the road will join a
aoon as eomo side issues have been ad
justed , the manager of the S1 ; . Pau
making this a condition before hi ,
road would join iho low :

which is the same proportion o

Merrill stated that his road waa road }
to j nn the Iowa pool upon the tertni

business. Ho did not think that the
Iowa roads were justiCed in findint
fault became- his road had issued
passes to a few friends of the general
superintendent at Council Dluil'j and
Omaha. The Rock Island when it
npsncd its "Albert Lea" route did not
aut aa fairly towards the St. Paul and
Minneapolis pool of the Northwestern
and Milwaukee & St. Paul roada.
Nut only did the Hock Island secure
business by issuing passes , but
it did not always maintain the rates ot
the pooled lines. He thought it but
juat that before entering he Iowa
pool BOino action should be taken tn
stop the fight between the Minnesota
roads. Ho waa ready to admit the
Rock : Island into the St. Paul pool ,
and ho hoped the Northwestern would
cease to offer any objections toward
such an arrangement. Mr. Hughitt
stated that ho was satisfied to admit
ilia Rock Island into the St. Paul
jool. Mr. Cubli , of the Rock Island ,
said ho waa ready to enter into nego
tiations looking towards a settlement
] f the Minneaota , troublca , aa he waa
no moro desirous than any of the
jthcr managers to have a fight on hh
liinda. It waa thereupon agreed that
the managers of the Rock Island ,
Northwestern nud Milwaukee & St.
Pdul should meet next Tuesday and
try to settle their troubles rocarding
the Minnesota business After hav
ing accomplished thia object notice
is to bu given of another mooting of
the Iowa pool lines to reorganize the
