FREELAND, PENN'A, JULY 5, 1897



legislature, which has just adjourned, is
of greater interest or Importance than
the act OF imposing tax of cents a
day on all foreign-bor unnaturalized
male persons over twenty-one years OF
age who are employed in Pennsylvania
The act went into effect Thursday.
1t has already had the effect of driving
into citizenship thousands of worthless
persons who care little or nothing about
the country and it's government, but
| now, having been clothed with the vot-
ing privilege, they will exert no small
influence in politics. The following is a
copy of the bill:
An act regulating the employment of
| foreign-born unnaturalized male persons over
| twenty-onc years of age, and providing IL tax
| on the employers of such persons, and pre-
| scribing Il penalty for violation of the provi-
| sions of said act, and directing the manner of
| collecting the same, and providing that the
amount of such tax may be deducted from
| the wages of persons affected by the provi-
| sions hereof
Section l. BE it enacted, etc, That all per-
| sons, firms, associations or corporations en-
| ploying one or more foreign-born unnatural
