N 1902 789,289 immigrants came over to our shores from foreign lands. This figare is 200,000 in advance of that of 1901; it is double the number came to America ‘in 1899; it is, therefore, the statistical-floodtide of the foreign input. It is of value to know from what countries these aliens came. Tt is found by analysis of the arrivals that Rassia, Austrie-Hungery/and Italy Bre now the greatest contributors to our foreign immigration. Germany, Scandinavia and the British Islands still increase their volume, but not in proportion to the increase of that of the other countries. ‘ In 1902, of the 739,289 immigrants, Italy and Russia furnished us with 825:148, “In 1899 these two countries, including Austria-Hungary, seut us bat 148,248. Of the 789,000 immigrants there wore only 211,988 women. Throughout all the records of immigration to America the males have dominated in number, showing that bread winners without wives and families conetitu‘e the majority. It is also ascertained that of all the immigrants only a few of them are over 45 years of age. . The causes of the increased immigration referred to are many, but the chief is the prosperity abounding on this side during the last few years and * the depression in Europe, made more severe by the increseinog population, for which there is not employment even at meager wages. While unquestionably we should augment strictness of regalation of imm'gra‘ion, it is noteworthy that the statistics do not justify exceedin as yet concerning the foreign imput. It is found that the greater mass of {hese ‘newcomers melt away into ao army of industrial people, who scatter and till the soil and labor in the development of the resources of the United States. It. is only a minimum number, after all, of the most ignorant and insensitive classes who go into the coal mines and follow those vocations which call for the greatest exertion of muscle and the very least of the brain, veerpeaenaed A GREAT BOON TO ____THE PACIFIC COAST. [HE ratification of the Panama Canal Treaty by the Benate of the United States is an important event forthe Pacific Coast. All ob) Staclee to the attainment of an interoceanic waterway seem now to Lave been removed. It is probable that within a year the work of construction will be resumed, and the failure of the French company be converted ultimately into a notable engineering triumph. It may be that some of the objections to the treaty were well founded, but any amendment would have required the consent of the Republic of Oolombia, and might have caused considerable delay, if not danger to the instrument asa whole. It is improbable that in any respect the treaty is seriously defective. _ It is believed the choice of the Panama route is a wise one, and that the conetruction of the canal will prove of vast benefit to California. It will bring our orchards and farms thousands of miles nearer the great markets of the world, and admit of the shipment by water to many Eastern and foreigo ports of California products that are now almost shut cut from such markets. The work of construction willinspire new hope and confidence in this State. It will be the means of promoting desirable immigration and investment of Caps ital. And while the railroads may at first suffer some loss of overland transportation, the growth and development of the Pacific Coast will be 80 greatly stimulated by the canal that in the long run the rallroads will probably be the gainer, just as the development of water transportation on the Great Lakes and their canale has proved a -benefit to the railroade connecting the Lake States with the Atlantic seaboard.

Mrs. Wells was a ledy that was known to most every one hereabouts, having come to this section in 1852 when she was but a mere slip of a girl of 10 years. ’fwas.here the young and vivacious maiden grew to sweet matarity and was met, wooed and won by the ever faithful husband, who through trials and tribulations, has ever been by her side. It was here that she has reared and watched over with only @ mother’s love and fidelity, a large family who, more than ali the world, will sadly miss the gentle footfalls and kindly ministrations of a fond and loving mother, i The adage that “misfortunes never come singly” has been more than exemplified in the Wells family of late, It is only witbin the past year that Fred Wells, the sesond son of Mrs. Welle, met with a railroad accident that sbortly afterwards caused his death. -On learning-of thé terrible affliction that bad befallen his brother another son, Lovell Wells, hastened to his bedside to render whatever assistance possible, While administering to his brother’s needs in Arizona, where the terrible accident bappened, .
