IMuIGKA1ION QUESTION,
Further Proceedings OF the Board Yester-
day--Advice by the Cord, but the Cas!, Re
mains in statu Quo.
The immigration commission met again
yesterday morning, according to adjourn
ment. There were present, Messrs. Hunt
ington, knight, Peterson, Won Baumbach,
and the chairman, Governor Pillsbury.
The chairman, in calling the board to Or
der, said he thought it advisable to defer
reading communications, SO as to give Ar.
Millius, of the German American bank, an
opportunity to address the board, as probably
that gentleman did not wish to stay long.
Mr.. Willius said that he had been in the
State for 22 years and wished to give his ex~
perience. First, he would make some sug-
gestions about the pamphlet. he thought 1t
important to show on the map that the State
had a vast extent of territory north-that
Minnesota was not altogether ut the north

additional map of the United States. The
pamphlet should be published in various
languages-his experience taught him this
was necessary. He held with those who
recommended the pamphlet to be sent direct
to the individuals; attached should be slip
Of paper askin. for list Of names of intend
ing emigrants. The Paris exhibition, he
thought, would be good place for the dis
tribution Of the pamphlet and the German
book agencies also he recommended, giving
system of distribution that would require an
issue of as many millions almost as the board
bad thousand copies and at a cost of half
million dollars at least. Advertising in for
elgn papers, letters, posters, biographies,
novels, scenery, hunting and fishing, pho
tograph drawings and no end of other wise
suggestions were contained in his communi-
cation, and the gentleman thought his method
| would cost butlittle. He gave his experience

| publish communications from Minnesota,
| One good suggestion, however, was made by
the gentleman, that the pamphlet should
! draw comparion between farms in Europe
| and America, SO as to-. INDUCE the better
| classes to come.
Mr.. knight said that with the capital at
| the command Of the board,it would not begin
|
Willius. The last suggestion of the speaker
was good; we had been bringing over poor
penniless people, we want better class.
Mr.. Willius suggested to raise the needful
by dime contribution fund being started,
and an appeal to the cities and counties be
made. The board should not be discouraged
at the action of railroad companies-they
| have always acted in the same self relient
way: that no one can do as they can do But
there is no doubt that people look with sus-
picion upon pamphlets issued by railroads
anything from the State would have thou
sand fold more weight and influence.
| Gov. Pillsbury thought delay is dangerous
the board could not afford to wait for lnatur-
ing any such plan as suggested by Mr.. Will
| Illus. He thought it better for the board to
spend the $4,000 given them in the best
way possible and do all they can, with the
hope that the State would increase the fund
another year. Mr.. Bond said that Mr.. Pow
ers had admitted yesterday that the board
could do ten times as much as the railroad
companies could do.
Mr.. Willius said that he thought it mis-
take to give the railroads the-privilege of a
place in the pamphlet.

recommending railroad excursions, as in
Kansas, was read.
A communication was read from Antony
Jurla, a Bohemian, and teacher of German
in the public schools of st. Paul,
offering to travel and lecture to Bohemians
in Cleveland, Chicago and Milwaukee, St.
Louis and New York. All he requires for
compensation is pass on each of the lines.
Gov. Pillsbury stated that the gentleman
was recommended by Col. Pfaender, and he
had no doubt he was enthusiastic in the
cause, and could influence the better class.
Mr.. Huntington moved that the secretary
be instructed to get passes for the gentleman,
and also get him to write articles for the
press. The motion was carried.
The subject of Father Berghold and his
labors in theimmigration field was discussed,
Governor Pillsbury saying that
he was liberal minded gen
tleman, and had done very much for i'm
migration. He suggested that the services
OF the gentleman be recognized by the
board.
Mr.. Peterson moved that the secretary in
form the reverend gentleman of the board g
appreciation and recognition of the good
work he had accomplished in inducing i'm
migration to this State. The resolution was
carried.
The secretary then read an article to be
inserted in the Newspaper Union, and a
three inch advertisement for the same. No
action was taken on these, and the board
went into secret session to consider the
pamphlet which the secretary had prepared
for publication.
| AFTERNOON SESSION.
The board continued in secret session the
whole afternoon, considering page by page
the secretary's material for the pamphlet
and when the time came for adjournment,
O'Clock, they had not got through their work
And as two of the gentlemen, Messrs. Peter
son and Won Baumbach, were obliged to re-
turn home, a committee of three was ap-
pointed, consisting of Gov. Pillsbury, and
Messrs. Knight and Huntington, to complete
the work. Nothing was decided about the
pamphlet, it being distinctly understood
that the committee should not order it print
ed without the cooperation of the railroad
companies. The bids for printing were moi
opened, The committee will meet this
morning at half-past eight, when the bids
will be opened.
