THE number of immigrants that arrived
at Castle Garden last week will be, as the
authorities there compute it, say thirty thou
sand, of which considerable proportion
are skilled workmen. The majority OF these
passengers are well supplied with money
and clothes, and are, therefore, presumably,
an excellent addition to our population.
But the apprehensions of the trade union
lists have been excited by the coming hither
of these, and the promise OF still other work
ingmen. According to the Philadelphia pa
pers, Mr.. Rankin, master workman OF the
"Knights of Labor" is predicting trouble
from the importation of foreign labor, and is
saying that the Pennsylvania Legislature
would be asked to pass a law "making it a
penal offence to import workmen from place
to place. So that the railroads, as well as
the general employer are to be, the knights
of Labor having control, boycotted. There
are two difficulties in the way of the trade
unionists; their principle and purpose of
prohibiting immigration are opposed to the
American idea, and the movement is too
great for them to cope with. Further,
there is every reason to believe that it will
continue, as it is to be hoped it will, SO long
as it gives us the able, the industrious, and
the prudent working people of Europe.
