IMMIGRATION.

The great necessity of the South ern
States is immigration and population. 1t
is that which has made these United
States great and powerful nation. The
| government and the States have land in
abundance, but the want is settlers who
will occupy, improve and cultivate them.
On every hand the cry is more people,
come, We have room and to spare. No
nation since the history of the world has
been so favored with an increase of its
population, and we have broad acres
still Uninterrupted, the richest and the best
that can be found in any country.
The people of the Old World, groaning
under the load of poverty and oppres-
sion, are -forsakitag the homes of their
ancestors, and are coming to land of
liberty and freedom. Let US see what
becomes of them, and what we gain in
the wealth that flows into our Golfers
through this foreign exodus. 1t is said
the United. States gained their actual
power and greatness mainly through emf
grafton.
From the statistical record it appears
that from 1775 to 1915 immigration into
this country was very small, on account
OF the American Revolution and European
wars-not over three thousand or four
thousand year. When peace between
England and America was re-established,
IN 1873, immigration received new I'M
petus. The famine of 1916 and 1917 in
duced large emigration from Germany
In 1927 there were II, 952 emigrants from
the United Kingdom, against 77O9 the
previous year, and in 1928 the number
rose to 17,84O, sinking again in 1929 to
1854, and in 1880 to 1874. From that
time the number increased on account of
European disorder, revolution or national
distress. In the decade from 1916 to 1854
there CAME 1,512, 100 Irish emigrants to
the United States During the same pc
Rod there CAME 1926, 1872 German emil
grants, owing principally to the failure of
their attempts at political reform. In 1856 |
every emigrant arriving in New York was
questioned as to the amount of money |
which he brought, and the average of !
AZ, 342 corners of that year was found to
be S6S 08 each.
1t is estimated that the German immi-
grants alone brought into the United
States annually an average of s11, 900, oOo

appears upon its face; or that it has re-
pented of its acceptance, and is now oc-
cupying its old position Of opposition to
the amendments. This is demonstrable
from the fact that the address and the let
ter convey the same idea, and yet, while
the address is accepted the letter is re-
jected.
AS between the Democrats of the VAL
landigham departure and the Democrats
OF the Bourbon Immortality, the Re
publicans have only one duty to perform,
which is to allow this family row to pro-
coed in its domestic sphere until it threat
ems to disturb the public peace. If Val
landigham can bring the partisans whom
he has largely assisted to demoralize back
to the standard sense which they deserted
when they refused to bow to the will of
the nation, every Republican will be will
ing to condone his past offenses. An am
nesty is accessible to all men, however
much they have erred, who sincerely re-
pent and report for active duty under the
laws OF the government. And their past
wickedness shall not be remembered
against them very severely if they still
continue to call US bad names while they
themselves are cutting down the factious
element which disturbs the country with
contentious over questions that have
mouldered in the grave for years. Val
landigham is leading desperate sortie at
present, in order to break the lines of
prejudice, and it is lamentable that his old
comrades in arms are trying to shove him
down because they do not understand his
stratagem.

SOUND, IF NOT SENSIBLE.

The st. Louis Republican ought to
change its name in order to escape the
odor of party which it processes to hold
IN constant contempt. But this is not
pertinent to the subject under considera-
ton. The st. Louis Republican lit is i'm
possible to write such name for Dem
ocratic newspaper without feeling that
the unities are abused) declares that the
negroes do not know how to vote. There
is one answer that can be made to this
which has confused a great many people,
and that is, the negroes have always
voted for their friends, which is more
than can be said of thousands of white
people. They have always refused to
sell out or to be cheated, which is say
ing that thousands of Democrats can not
urge in their own favor And as a last
evidence of their steadiness, they have
repulsed Tammany Hall, in New York,
with an indignant remainder that so long
as the men who massacred them in 1864
are honored by the Democracy, the col
ored people can never affiliate with or
participate in the councils of that party
Tammany made its usual efforts to cor
rupt the negroes, but it met with men
who did not pretend to be smart, but
they did pretend to know their friends
from their enemies. There is a degree of
capacity in this ability to discriminate
Alright which almost destroys the PROPOSE
ton of the st. Louis paper, even il the
minds of its own partisans.

RATIFICATION OF THE TREATY.

The work of the joint commission hay
ing received the sanction of the United
States Senate and the approval of the Presi-
dent, it now only lacks that of the British
government to settle the long standing SUBJ
jects Of difference between the two ma
tons. The publication of the surrepti-
tiously obtained copy of this document
has made its main provisions known
to the country at large; and so satisfac-
tory does it appear that even the most vio-
lent opponents of the administration can
find little in it to censure. The most that
they can do is to belittle its settlement of
the Alabama difficulties, and give
what praise they can not refuse
to the English commissioners rather
than to their own countrymen. In spite
of such paltry cavilling, however, it is
pretty evident that the people in general
are satisfied with the terms of the treaty,
and that its ratification by the government
of England will be hailed with satisfac-
ton.

Where would all the solid financial fun
come from if Antelope, of the Picagpoae
should suddenly give up the ghost? Tues
day he blazed away at Mr. Boutwell, for
playing the mischief with the country by
keeping all the double eagles locked up in
the gold vaults of the treasury. Wednes-
day he fouts the Secretary for pretending
to have double eagles when he in
reality has nothing of the kind.
Either the mischief must have been mere
fiction, or else Antelope did not know
what he was writing about; for how could
the evil exist without its predicate of the
golden eagles withheld from circulation
The financial question is evidently few
too many for Antelope.
