4 511 OF ALIENS Austro-'Hungary Leads List, With Russia Close Up. ITALY IS AT HIGH TIDE Commissioner Sargent Says Trans portation Agents Have a Virgin Field, Well Jflgh Inexhausti ble, in European Turkey. WASHINGTON. Dec. 10. In present ing the annual report of the Bureau of Immigration. commissioner - General Sargent refers to the magnitude atfd gravity of the problems presented by the growth of the alien population of the United States. "These preblems." he declares, "loom so largely in the prospect of our country that it may be said, without giving Just cause to charge exaggeration, that all other queptions of public economy relating to things rather than to human be ings shrink Into comparative Insig nificance." The total alien arrivals reported for the year of 1.026,499 represents an in crease over the preceding year of 213. 629. of which the contentinental ports of the United States reach 196.940, as compared with arrivals there last year, and the Canadian ports 13.830. At the insular ports the Increase was 2849, al though the arrivals at Port Rico were Jess by 94 than in 1904. There also was a large increase in arrivals at Southern ports, while a decrease Is shown for the Pacific ports, which Is accounted for In some measure by the Russo-Japanese War. Of the increased arrivals above re ferred to, Austria-Hungary sent 98, 337 over its quota of 1904. Russia 39. 756. Italy 28,183. and the United King dom 49.544. Tills Increase from the last mentioned country, says the Com missioner, Is somewhat offset by the decrease from Germany, Switzerland and Sweden. Notwithstanding the increase from Italy, that country, says the Commis sioner, may be regarded as having probably reached the hishrwater mark. I'roin this showing. Commissioner Sar gent ventures the prediction that the chief sources of future immigration are those two in Europe which have the greatest resources. In population, prob ably to dispense with Russia and Austria-Hungary. - "With the facts in view," he says. "It will be possible to calculate with reasonable certainty on the character of immigration. In its greater bulk, for some years to come at least of Eu ropean Immigration." Commissioner Sargent does not lose sight of the increased number of Im migrants from European Turkey, a field which, although 'practically inex haustible, he says, 1b but virgin to the activities of the transportation agent. The Importance of a proper under standing of the contract law is dwelt upon In the report. No feature of the Immigration law. he aeclares, has proved so difficult of enforcement as that which passed for the protection of labor In this country from unfair competition by aliens. The chief ob stacle in the way of such enforcement he attributes to the erroneous impres sion that It Is a measure wrung from Congress against Its will by the powers of organised labor, exacting nil It could obtain rather than seeking the simple Justice. "This impression is so widely prev alent," he nays, "that it produces at least an Indifference to the enforce ment of the law. If not a hostile bias against it. and credits the, law-making branch of the Government with no worthier motive for enacting It than selfish fear. Becaifse of such Impres sion, he declares, the bureau finds Its efforts to enforce the law either reluc tantly submitted to or resisted, active ly or passively, and Itself viewed as In some sort of branch or agency of organized labor sensitive to that body's interest, responsible , to its wishes and thus essentially different from other parts of the executive Government of the United States. "Perhaps labor Itself." he adds. "Is not altogether free from blame for this false public impression, and thus unconsciously has played Into the hands of those Interests which find. It to their account to alicnato public sympathy by encouraging such a view." PRESERVATION OF THE INDIANS Three Recommendations Made by Commissioner Leupp. WASHINGTON. Dec. 10. The necessity for preserving Indian muplc, the estab lishment of an Indian reform school, and the erection of a sanitarium for tubercu-losie-affected Indians are new features of the annual report of the Commissioner or Indian Affairs, Francis E. Lcupp. Tho Commissioner say? that In pursuance of the general Idea of saving Instead of crushing what Is genuinely characteris tic In the Indian, steps have been taken by him for the preservation through tho schools of what is best in Indian music. "The -children should be Instructed In the muplc of their own race side by side with ours." he Mates, "and with this end In view he has made an experimental start by the appointment of a supervisor of native music" The Idea, he declares. Is spreading most favorably. Commissioner Leupp believes that much good can be done In checking the spread of tuberculosis among Indians, which exist? to an alarming extent, by the erec tion somewhere In the Southwest of an Indian sanitarium. This sanitarium, the Commissioner suggerts. should be in Itself a school for children infected with the disease. This would obx-Jate their blng sent home to serve as centers of Infection. War of Naval Exporters at End. SAVANNAH. Ga Dec. 10. The war that for six months has been waged among naval stores exporters has eeaned.

It is wise to forget. A good "forgettery" Is one of most valu able mental gifts or acquirements a nan in public life can possess in such parlous days as ours. When inconvenient ques tions require the turning of life's pages back to some occasion not so creditable as could be wished, what an advantage to find that particular page clean and white, with no black marking? to be smirch its fair surface When an inci dent of an unpleasant nature It called to mind, an incident, for example, that might tend to put a man "behind the bars,' what an advantage it must be to have a good, sturdy ability to forget all about it. ROUMANIANS ARE COMING Declare They Will Drive Hungarians Out of Country. VIENNA. Dec. 10. An example of the mixture of races existing in Hun gary is given In reports which reached Vienna today of the beginning of what may prove to be a serious move ment among tho Roumanian inhabit ants of Southern Hungary In favor of the Emperor-King against the Mag yars who, in the name of Hungary, are fighting against the crown." The Roumanians living in the border provinces of Temes. Arad and Bihar are holding secret meetings and cam paigning against the Hungarians, cry ing, "Down with Hungarian gentry, and "We will not let harm befall Fran cis Joseph." One Hungarian who opposed a Rou manian candidate for membership in the Chamber of Deputies, has been murdered and gendarmes have been asked for. Many Hungarians are leav ing the isolated country districts for the towns, while others are arming themselves. The Roumanians are de claring that they will drive out all Hungarians from the provinces bord ering on Roumanla. Powers Asked to Intercede. ANTWERP. Dec 10. A group of In ternational lawyers Is endeavoring to induce the powers to Intercede -with the Turkish government In the case of Edward Jors, a Belgian, who was condemned to death by a native court at Constantinople for alleged partici pation in an attempt to assassinate the Sultan In July last, it Is contended that the action In the case of Jors Is an infringement of treaties with the Turkish government. ESSENCE OF HOMEMAKING Its Success Lies in the Consideration of Others. American Homes and Gardens. Homemaklng and Housekeeping arc two different things. Both arc related to each other, and both are essential to existence, but the successful housekeeper has to do with the materials tilings of life, with the conduct of the household, with Its cleanliness. Its order. Its external visible aspect. The homeraaker is concerned with tho internal side of life, with things invisible and personal. It is nobler work, that of homemaklng, than that of house keeping. The housekeeper is an execu tive officer, directing her servants as a General commands his army: her duties arc business duties and her life is full of bustling activity. The homemaker Is con cerned with the quieter side of life. She may fall In the executive aspects, but succeed with exceeding beauty in the per sonal matters which make the home the most precious of human possessions. The housekeeper Is a single person, in tent on keeping her house in order, ad ministering it with economy and carrying on her work with as little friction as possible. Many persons, the whole fam ily group, constitute the homcmakers of any household. Tho woman leads in homemaklng. exactly as she dominates In housekeeping, but the responsibility for the home Is not hers alone, but Is equally the husband's, and. to a very con siderable extent, the children's as well. Every one must help In home making, each one contribute his quota, each do what he or she can. But the men should not put the whole responsibility on the women, nor the women put it off on the men, nor the children hold the parents entirely responsible, nor the parents Ig nore the children's part. The home must be a perfect organism, in which each one tries to do the best he can for the others. If he helps himself at the same time he is so much the better off. But home life rests more completely on consideration or others than on any other single thought. KICKING THE WRONG MAN Wife's Hints to Forgetful Husband Arc Wasted on Her Guest. Minneapolis Journal. Stanislaus V. Henkels, Philadelphia's authority on books and autographs, was describing the Governor Ponny- packer library. Suddenly he paused and laughed. "That was an error." he said. "If such an error as that got into print I would feel as uncomfortable as tho lawyer's wife. This lawyer's wife lived uptown and one evening her hus band brought a friend home with him to dinner.

AFRAID TO USE PASSES President Opposes Attempt to Oust Smoot Ankcny Will Fight Car ter's Ambition for Irrigation Committee Chairmanship. OREGONIAX NEWS BUREAU. Wash- lngton,Dec. 10. Notwithstanding Congress has been paying Its members 3 cents for every mile they travel in going from their homes to Washington and return. It has been the almost universal custom for Na tional lawmakers to travel on passes and to pocket as clear profit almost the entire mileage allowed them by law. This year, however, the railroads hare gathered In a large share of this mileage, tor a great many St-nators and Representatives, heed ing public sentiment and determined to vote for the President's rate bill, have gone down Into their pockets and paid for railroad tickets, rather than ride on passes furnished by railroads Wat are opposed to the President's rate plan. There have always been a few men In Senate and House who would not ride on passes, but they have heretofore been re garded as freaks. This year, if a correct accounting could be made, it would be found that a large percentage, possibly a majority, paid their fare to Washington, paid for their Pullmans and their meals for the first time In their legislative ca reers. This is one of the sure Indications that the lawmakers have felt the public pulse and are preparing to do the bidding of their constituents. It has been a great sacrifice for some men to rive up good. hard money for railroad travel, when they have become accustomed to riding on passes, but they have been unable to accept free transportation when they were aware that they must vote for legisla tion which almost every railroad In the United States is opposing. This Is ono hopeful sign that the President may win out after a hard fight. President Favors Smoot. It can be stated on good authority that President Roosevelt is not In sympathy with the movement to deprive Senator Reed Smoot of his seat in the Senate. Tho fact is. he entertains a very friendly feel ing for the Senator, and Smoot Is always accorded a cordial welcome at the White House. The President and the Senator have had numerous conferences, fre quently touching upon the case now be fore the committee on privileges and elec tions, and there is little doubt. If the set tlement of that case rested with the Pres ident, It would be promptly disposed of in favor of the Senator. When It comes to making Federal appointments in Utah, the President places entire reliance upon Mr. Smoot and upon his new colleague. Senator Sutherland, and he has yet to find that these men have indorsed per sons unworthy of holding public offlce. Perhans the President s incndHness ior Mr. Smoot nay be the greater because the latter's political enemies tried every known means of discrediting blm at tho White House. Prior to the last National Convention Mr. Smoot recommended the reappointment of the Postmaster at Salt Lake City. Senator Kearns. who was then Mr. Smoot w colleague, opposed tne reannolntraent. and getting little encour agement, turned on the President and threatened to swing utahs vote to iian- na. unless the President would name a new Postmaster. The only answer the President made was promptly to reap point the Postmaster, who bore Mr. Smoofs Indorsement, and. when the con vention was held, Utah scrambled on the Roosevelt band wagon. Mr. Kearns was unable to make good. He is head of the new American parly which came off vic torious In the recent Salt Lake election. but that victory has not elevated Mm nor Injured Mr. Smoot In the President estimation. Anltcny Will Fight for Place. If anv formal attempt Is made ky any Senator to wrest the chairmanship of the irrigation committee from him Senator Anken7 is going to put up a nrht. it Mas been understood in Washington that Sen ator Carter of Montana is after this chair manship, and he no doubt would make a good chairman, but Mr. Ankcny is in une for the vacancy and under the rule of seniority, which the Senate always fol lows, be will Bet the place. The oaly other Senator who has any color or claim is Mr. Fulton of Oregon, who was ap pointed a member of the committee at the same time as Ankony, out nc was named after Mr. Ankeny and recognizes the latter's prior claim and will support him. Senator Carter lias served one term, but he 1ms been In private life for the past four rears and comes back this Winter as a new Senator. He lias no claim to the chairmanship of the Irrigation com mittee; he Is not even a member of it, and his prior scrvire counts for nothing In the apportionment of committer places thls year. By every -rule and practice this chairmanship belong to Mr. Ankeny and the Senate Is very apt to recognize his right and preferences. When it comes down to practical knowledge of irrigation. Mr. Ankeny ought to know as much as anv member of the Senate, for he not only lives in an irrigated country, nut he him self has long engaged Iff irrigation and is familiar wth the work, both on a small and an expanded scale. He has prob ably had more practical experience as an Irrigator than any other man In the Senate. Ilcyhnrn Wants More Work. Senator Hcyburn of Idaho, convinced that there Is a chance of passing the food bill at the present session of Con gress, Is anxious to retain the chairman ship of the committee on manufactures, which has pure food legislation In charge, and he will probably be permitted to hold on. But th?. Senator Is not content with tills one committee place: he wants to get on some of the big. active and important committees which actually meet and transact business. Like other new Sena tors, he aspires to membership on such committees as commerce, appropriations. foreign relations, finance, interstate com merce. etc. but. he must know that nose of these committees are for him, for ho has turned his particular attention to securing membership on the committees on Irrigation and Judiciary. There are vacancies on these committees and it Is possible he may land' on both: he cer tainly ought to land on one of them. ' Idaho hats no representation on the com n lit tee on Irrigation, yet the state Is en titled to representation both on account of the great work the Government has already undertaken In Idaho, and the work which will be done hereafter. It is k-erlain that sooner or later the national rrigation law must be amended, and this committee will have a great deal to say about how It shall be amended. If Idaho has a voice on the committee, some of the Idaho ideas may be carried out when tho time comes. Mr. Her burn is aware that there are three vacancies on the Judiciary commit tee, and hopes to secure one of them. In -case Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, loses his place, there will be no Far Western Senator on this committee.- Clark of Wy oming, the prospective chairman, being the only Republican member west a-f Min nesota. Being a lawyer by profession. Mr. Hey burn believes the work on this committee would be congenial to him, and would afford him opportunities he would not have elsewhere. It will not be known until Just before the holiday recess whether Mr. Heybum will secure these coveted committee as signments or nor, but he Is making a strong pulL for them both, and hopes to win out. Ship Subsidy TTp Again. The Gallinger Ship' Subsidy Commission, which made a tour of the American sea ports in the Summer of l&M. gathering In formation on the American merchant ma rine, with a view to bolstering up a ship subsidy bill, has reconvened and is hold ing regular sessions attended by as much formality and seriousness a it there were a prospect of passing a ahlp subsidy bill at the present Congress. Senator Gallln ger says he is going to force the passage of a shipping "subvention" bill, the new name for the subsidy bill, and Chairman Grosvenor. of the House committee on merchant marine, is equally enthusiastic in his support of such a bill, thocsh less radical in his threats. In a session of Congress when there will be no appropriations for rivers and harbors, and when It will be Impossible to secure money for public buildings, there is no prospect of passing a ship subsidy bill which will benefit only a few communities at the expense of the entire country. This ship subsidy bill, in a mea sure, is local legislation; It would operate to the benefit of certain ports, or rather of certain shipbuilding and shlpownlng concerns. The great Interior country would reap no benefit. It Is not to be presumed that that vast Interior area of the United Stales Is going to sit by and watch some of the coast states vote mil lions out of the treasury to aid shipyards and shipping companies, when money Is denied for public buildings and river Im provements, and for the many local needs which are put under the ban because the leaders have decreed that there must be economy. There will be no ahlp subsidy bill this session, above all others. If such a law passes, it must be at a time when the treasury is full to overflowing, not when there Is a deficit.

SITUATION IS - PERILOUS IleHO'k Slenkicwlcx, the Novelist, Says His Native Land Desires Au tonomy. Not the Establish ment of a Republic. STOCKHOLM. Dec 10. The Associated I Press today had an Interview with Hen- ' ryk Slenkiewlcz prior t6 his receiving the Nobel prize for literature. The novelist said: "I have not been In Poland 'for three weeks. The situation in Russia -and in Poland Is extremely bad. The bureauc racy cannot last much longer with or without revolution. Its days are count ed. The Russian people are good, but the bureaucrats are a set of thieves. That was proved by the war. Count Wltto's position is most difficult. WItte Is clever and of great capacity, but It Is doubtful if he will be able to retain his position. "We are In the greatest danger as Poles, and a German occupation of Po land is possible if this revolutionary movement gets beyond the control of the Russian government. Perhaps such oc cupation would be by consent of the Russian government, and perhaps not. However. If the Russian government should acquiesce In the occupation of Russian Poland, in whole or In part, by Germany the act would be resisted, not only' In Poland, but In Russia. "Germany does not desire a rapproche ment between the Russians and Poles, and would not be willing to sec Poland free. We will remain part of Russia If Russia gives Poland autonomy. We do not wish a republic, and neither Poland nor Russia Is ready to become a repub lic. "If Poland should revolt It rlll not be against Russia, but against the bureau cratic government. We love to think of our Independence, but while we are strong' enough to demand freedom from Russia, we are not strong enough to de fend It against Germany. "I do not think that Poland will start an armed revolution, but she will en force her rights through the Douma. I believe that the Russian liberals will give Poland autonomy If they are not de feated. Our first demand Is for the use of the Polish language in official schools and universities; our second is for a Polish congress, or sejm; our third Is for an entirely Independent civil and Judicial administrations which would give us Judges and officials who understand our laws and language, and our rourtn de mand is for a separate military adminis tration. In the last-mentioned connec tion let me sar that we have splendid Polish Generals, and it was notable In the war with Japan that the Polish sol diers were the best gators. General Kuropatkln onve hated Poland, but now he loves It. The Drlnted reports to the effect that I was arrested or that any punishment had been Inflicted upon me arc untrue, but manv of We people of Poland, espe cially the litterateurs, have been arrested and "sentenced to be deported to Siberia. The salvation of these latter, however, is that the government Is now without means for their deportation. Th Socialists In Poland are very en ergetic, but the majority of the people belong to the National party and are antl-Sociallsfs. while the majority of the uneducated Jews In the Polish cities arc Socialists. We have not had any Jewish atrocities In Poland, for the Poles would not be so barbarous as to assassinate women and children. Naturally I feci extremely gratified at the honor Sweden has conferred In rec ognition of mc as worthy of the Nobel prize. I am gratified all the more be cause the honor Is a recognition of Polish literature and thereby disproves the assertion that we are a nation belong ing to the past. This Nobel prize, which I do not take as a oersonal tribute, shows us to be among the foremost na tions in the world of thought.

I approached one of these streams, over which was a bridge about 12 feet long and somewhat raised abovs th? road on tne farther side from me. The CrOING"1. GOING!! GONE!!!

A little way from the point of crossing were some large rocks stand ing close together, over which the dopr could cross without taking to the water, and he started to cross in that manner. When I drove on to the bridge, my horse stopped and rcfured to take to the water, which stood level with the bridge; my dog stood on one of tho large rocks watching my progress, and when the horse stopped and refused to go on. the dog, with human Intelligence and reasoning. Instantly leaped from the rock on to the bridge, ran up In front of the horse. looked Into her face, gave a sharp bark of encouragement, and then turned and deliberately walked off the bridge Into the water, all the time looking over his shoulder at the horse, saying "Come on" as plainly a3 his Intelligent face could express those words. Then without any urging on my part the horse at once followed the dog Into the water and across the flooded strip of road to the dry land, at timer up to her belly In the flood, the doe swimming over the center of the road Just In front of her. The intelligence displayed by both ani mals struck me very forcibly at th time. The dog saw the difficulty, and with the quickness of human reasoning he saw the way to overcome It. and he acted on the Instant. The horse had un limited confidence In the dog, gained from their former experiences together, and she was ready to follow where he would lead without any hesitancy. Returning some hours later over the same road, the dog. always in advance, stopped a mo ment. Just long enough to see It the horso would make the passage of the water all right, and when he saw that she raised no objection to crossing, he took to the rocks and crossed without wetting his feet. I have often thought of this Incident: the quick, active reasoning of the dog. the quick action taken by him. and the understanding of the dog's purpose and confidence In him displayed by the horse.
