WASHINGTON, Dec 6-Since the
records have been kept, beginning
with the year 1920, 22000,000 immi
grants have entered the ports of the
United States, and more than 4.500-
600. during the last ten years The to-
tai inu 1903 was 921 ,315 and in 1904, it
was S4O,714. During the last five
months. since July /, 1904, the ar
rivals have been more than 1000,
and they are still coming at The rate
of about $500 day During the last
two days for which returns have been
received. Nov 25 and &c, the total
was $500. Since July /, 1902. more
than 100000 have been added to our
population, and at the present rate
the next census will show an increase
of 1900. 900 by immigration alone. The
banner year for immigrants was 1903.
There was a decrease of S0,601 in 1904
which was confined to Australian
gary, Italy and Sweden, three of the
largest sources of immigration.
Italy contributes more to the
growth of our population than any
other country, having sent us 230 ,662
of her sons and daughters in 1908.
and 1926 in 1904, Austria is the
second contributor, having sent us
206,011 in 1903 and l77156 in 1904 /;
Russia comes third with a total of
136O93 in 1903, and 1914 in 1904
Sweden sent us 46,02S of her sturdy
sons and daughters in 1903, and u :.

and in addition to this the bank was
to be given a bonus of forty thousand

The Contest In Vermont And Maine

Never before, perhaps, have the Republi-
cans made such an effort to carry the election
for State officials in Vermont aud Maine IS
they are doing this year. Surely they must
be afraid Of the handwriting on the wall.
Every speaker of reuown in their ranks has
been sent to whoop up TIE faithful in Vermont,
whose election takes place on September &,
and from there they are sent TO Maine, which
VOTES September u. dispatch from Wash
ington, d. c., says:
II IS argued that If the majority given for
Mckinley can be equaled or increased the re
suit will have some effect on the doubtful voter
who wants to be with the winner III the gen
eral election in November.
Noted Republican orators ike Speaker Can
non and Congressman Charles r. LIttleheid
are doing Their best to enthuse the Repubh
cans in these States.
In order to offset this activity the Demo
Gratis have sent a number of able speakers into
these strongly Republican States.
Among the speakers who have been urgently
requested to 90 into Maine. and from Maine
into Vermont, so as to hold nightly meetings
in both States. are Senator Bailey, Of Texas;
Senator Tillman, of South Carolina; Congress
man Bourke Cochran. De Laneey Nicoll and
Mayor Mcclellan; of New York.
MAYOR Mcclellan, because of the old soldier
vote in both Vermont and Maine, IS looked
upon as a strong mae for this assignment
Senator Bailey had intended to speak in Hi
nois on August 20, but had TO cancel the Gu
eagement on account Of the illness Of his son
in New York. Mr.. Bailey will be in Vermont
and Maine this and next week. Congressman
john Sharp Williams. of Mississippi. and ex-
Gov. James Z. Campbell, of Ohio, are likely
tc pnt in two weeks each Of New England
speaking. -
For the Governorship election in Maine IN
1900 the Republicans carried the State by a.
600. How nearly the September State cleo.
ton reflects the vote at the national contest IS
shown by the fact that in the same year Tor
President six weeks later, the Republicans
elected their Mckinley electors by $4,000.
At the last State election the Republicans
carried the State by q, 900, and Mr.. Sheehan,
who will watch every move IN the Maine con
test. believes that the plurality this year can
be kept lower than 5000 The effect OF such
a vote. il is figured. would be encouraging 10
the Democrats Of the rest Of the country.
Governor Hill, of Maine, stayed an New
York for three days last week and has person
ally appealed to Chairman COrtelyou, of the
Republican National Committee, TO have more
strong Republican speakers sent into the State.
An appeal also has been made to Governor
Chairman Odell for speakers, some OF whom
have been promised.
