The Danger from Foreign Innuencc-Im-
policy of the Naturalization Laws.

When the Convention of l78s In forming the
Constitution Of the United States gave to Congress
the power Of naturaizing foreigners, they could
have had no conception Of the immense amount of
immigration which has lately poured into the
country. Up TO that time IL did not exceed Eve
thousand year. The last year (l854) shows an
immigration Of $4,000 at the port Of New York
alone. With FIVE thousand year nj its date, the
first act of Congress passed on the subject required
a residence Of fourteen years. This showed the
opinion of the early fathers of the republic. From
1890 to 1900 the arrivals were $4,000, or 5000
per year. From eighteen hundred to 1910, they
were 10000, or 1000 per year. From 1910 to
1920 they were l14,000 or $4,000 per year. From
the last date the influx has been enormous, and
has no parallel, except in the horde Of northern
barbarians which overran and conquered southern
Europe. The immigration Of the last year alone
exceeds the aggregate amount of the whole period
of thirty years--from 1890 to 1s20-by 1000.
The governments of Europe do not like us to
trAe with their stability or the rights and inter-
ests of their citizens. On the face OF the earth
there is no such reckless prostitution of the
rights of citizenship. Even where the mass Of ma
live citizens have no power Of voting or infuenc-
ing the government there Is naturalization law.
The gift Of citizenship is rarely granted, and then
only in special instances for meritorious causes.
There is not an instance on the continent where u
foreigner can even cross the government line
Witnout " passpuft.
Notwithstanding the services Of Lafayette and
other distinguished foreigners in the Revolutionary
army, the jealousy Of foreign influence was not re-
moved II was not until independence was firmly
established, and long period Of peace in pros
pect, that Congress, in 1902, reduced the period
of probation from fourteen to Ave years. We had
then an immense country, thinly settled. II had
been the policy Of the mother country to repress
manufactures here, distinguished British states
man averring in Parliament that we should not
manufacture even a hob-nal. We were without
manufactures and manufacturing skill II became,
therefore, our interest TO encourage the immigra-
ton Of foreign mechanics and laborers from their
manufactures. And for this purpose the act Of
| 1902 was passed. But the law has long out-lved
the policy which dictated 1t, and that which was
once wise and polite, has, by the abuse of the
foreigner granted by IT, become curse and nui-
| sance.
An opposite policy is now the interest Of the
country. We stand in need no longer OF foreign
skill or foreign labor - UHiontoWn (Pa.) Standard,

1t is from the minutes kept at the office
Of the Van Rensselaer, Manor at Alba

payable in wheat, or cash equivalent,
on the first of January each year: and
as two parties are deeply interested in
the price it is probably the most reliable
and correct of any record tina. can be
obtained. The list commences in
1898, when the price was 10 cents a
bushel, only five times in the sixty>one
years wheat has been 81 or upward
per bushel, while it was seventeen
times at 81 or under, twice at rs
cents. Only once in thirty>seven
years, to wit, in 1887 has it reached
81. The average price for the whole
period is 81 ,39. For the last so years
it is $1,25.
