The law prohibitipo Inc importatioI

= The law prohibiting the importation
Df labor under contract needs amend
ing In several respects. The act as
originally passed was intended to pre-
vent the importation OF foreigners
under contract, 10 do labor or service
In this country, but ii seems that it
does not fully reach the evil that it was
Intended for. The object OF this law
was more especially for the purpose OF
prot Ct n laboling men from foreign
competition, as Tor long time it had
been the custom with the capitalists
and contractors 10 send agents 10 Italy
Poland, Hungary and other foreign
countries, for the express purpose OF
securing cheap labor to build railroads.
work in mines and other like callings.
These mems passage was paid to
this country, and they were bound by
contract TO work a certain time Tor
their masters. This evil became 60
greet that even Italians engaged in il
themselves, and In Our large cities
there were padrones, who had at their
Command large gangs Of men whom
they owned as fully as the Southern
oA1No hoAdCIo Wv hCu luCii hldNeb. nG
evil however wss not confined 10 day
laborers, but extended even 10 some OF
The Iron mills, the proprietors of which
would send agents to England for the
purpose u securing new gangs Of
= nen whenever they felt like cutting
the wages. The majority of the men
brought here in this manner failed Ia
make good or desirable citizens, con.
sequently the country would have
been better off without them.
1t was for the purpose of putting {
stop TO these evils that this law was
framed, and while it has in o measur,
answered the purpose, it still fall
short OF what is desired. What i!
wanted is a law that will protect ou
mechanics from foreign competition
1t is not enough that their products ar,
protected by tariff, as to be elective
This produoSon must also extend Il
their labor, SO that they will not hav
their wages cut and reduced by foreigi
competition. There are some trade
that have been ruined in this manner
and if the next Congress intends I
keep the promises made during til
campaign, the foreign contract lay
will be amended 30 as TO check thi
great evil.

The proposition OF some oil the
Southern newspapers that the Govern.
ment remove all the co,ored people to
some of the territories In the lar Weet,
where they can DO treated as wards, is
not tenable. The Government has
tried this experiment with the Indians,
and the results have been anything
but satisfactory to the nation, the only
ones benefited being the men who
were 30 fortunate as to secure a posi-
ton as agent. There are many more
colored people than there are Indians,
and as some of them own considerable
property there is no doubt but they
would object to being treated in this
summary manner, and we do not
know of any law by which they could
be compelled to migrate. But even II
II were possible for congress to enact
such law, il would be one of the
greatest instances OF Injustice ever per
petSated by civilized nation. The
colored people are now invested with
the rights Of citizenship, and corse
quently those rights must be respected
