What to Do with the CoxeYitss.

Several suggestions as to what should
be done with the Coxeyites have appeared
in the public prints. The one that has
received the most attention is made by
Chicago man, who thinks they ought to
be colonized in some part of the country
where land is cheap.
This suggestion is not practicable.
The main reason it is not is that the
CoXeyites don't want to be colonized.
They don't want to work-at least the
great majority of them do not. At diff
ferent places in the west they have been
offered work by farmers and by contrac-
tors, and in each instance they have de-
clined to accept it. They see no reason
why they should work as long as they are
getting all they want to eat.
Many of them would, perhaps, accept
employment if they could get the kind of
work they are willing to do. They are
averse, however, to leaving the towns
and living on farms. If the government
should offer to provide them with land
and the means sufficient to begin farming
in any one of the territories, not Iper
cent. of them would accept the offer in
gOOu Idllu.
In Holland those who have no visible
occupation and no means of support, are
put to work on farms, whether
they want to engage in that kind of
work or not, but there is no power
in this country to compel men to work
when they do not want to. 1t might be
good policy for the government to iudorse
the bonds of the Nicaragua Canal Com
pany. on condition that the company
would furnish employment for all the un
employed people in the country, provided
the unemployed could be induced to go tC
Nicaragua and work on the canal Some
would go, doubtless, but not enough to af
ford the desired relief 1t is worthy oil
notice that the great majority of the
Coxeyites are not native Americans This
fact 1ustifes the question whether the
time has not arrived for putting stop tc
the pauper immigration from Europe
| This country has about all the dependent
| people it can take care Of 1t has more
than it wants, and congress should revise
our immigration laws, and make then
more stringent.
