Of the best received addresses Of the
evening on is the Foreigner a Menace
to Our Republ lic.'' He took the ground
that the country was able to assinailate
the foreign popnla ton that came to its y
shores. He showed the excellent
character of the foreign immig igrants in
the states in which they were most
numerous, as proven by the records Of
crime, North Dakota, with a parge pro-

ated, and held that this great country
could not afford to deny its blessings
and privileges to the oppressed of
other lands. SIS. .5.s s5:..
