the pen OF J. 5. l.. on Imnlgra-
tioa. After ennmeratlng the many
nataral advantages of this section
he winds up with a cordial invita-
ton 10 ,.one aud all'' to come
and make their homes with us. 1t
Is for The purpose of opposing un-
restricted immigration that | nn-
dertake to write this article. Time
was when we had vast public
domain that the industrious far
mers Of Europe immierated here
to acquire home Of their own,
B-lnglng their families with the =.
they pitched their tents on our
rich oraIries, Being isolated from
their Couptrymen and coming in
contact with their AmealcaE neigh
bors they soon became bonafide
American citizens. But now all
this is changed. Oar vast public
domain has disappeared and this
fact has wrought change in tbe
class of Immigrants tnat are NOW
fioeking to our shores, The thrifty
farmer no longer comes but IN his
stead vast horde of the very scum
OF Europe are now pouring in up-
on as. They do not scatter out as
they formerly did hut colonize IL
our large cities and manufacturing
centers They do not learn the Ian
guage OF the country OF their
adoption and clandestInely cling
20 many csstoms which, to say the
least, is out of place in this free
Republic. 1t IS this class of people
who congrogate IN the saloons
and over their beer mugs plot
Haymarket riots and Hennessy
assasslnations. This class OF inn
migrants are nos desirable and the
sentiment is gaining ground that
we should prevent them from
coming here.
Our protective tdiIff is respon-
slble for many of these people
beng here rhe Republican patty
raised the cry of protection to
American labor against the pro-
duct of pauper labor of the old
world and they were placed IN
power, but free trade was reiain-
ed for the pauper lSborer. The re-
suit wns when our laborers organ
izei to secure for themselves some
OF the benefits of the protective
tariff, the manufactures quietly
sent over to Europe end brought
over horde of Hungarians
Bohemians, Italians and the like
| TO take their place and now these
are ON strike, and more devilish
and bloodthirsty set can not be
found this side of the Atlantic.
Only the other day lot of strIk-
ing BohemIans went to the house
of their employer and after de-
stro, ing every thing they could
lay their hands on, they attacked
bis wife and attempted to tirow
vitrlol in her face but she FORUM
ateIy escaped, Her little fou.
year old son was not so fortunate
They caught the little fellow and
poured the frey liquid IN his ears,
His ears were eaten off and bis
hearing destroyed. ] think j. \.
l.. will agree with me when / say
these are ssbad'' citizens. 1t now
deYolves on the State of New
York to try to make them s'bet-
ter, Should mildsr remedies fail
we would advise them 10 try q
. dose of CRESCENT Cry ToNIo and
think il will have the desired effect
Are we not admitting the Trogs
Horse that will cause our down
fall? Is. there no note of warning
In the fact that ten Thousand
Italians held a meeting in New
York lately for the purpore OF
making demands on the United
states, their speakers thanking
God that their Government had
: a navy that could enforce these
demands. Surely this Is free
country. If these Italians had
been In Italy and had heI,
, ths kind of a meeting il
reference to thac GoverDmen
they would have been tried TO
treason and shot. When iool
