immigration Problem

President Roosevelt has taken
up the immigration question and
is preparing to call it to the at
tention of congress and the
country. The president believes
that one of the most serious prob
lens now confronting the Amer
lean people is how to deal> with
the hordes of undesirable imml-
grants Europe is pouring upon
our shores. During the fiscal
year which ends June 30 next, all
immigration records will be brok-
en-. In those twelve months we'll
on towards 100000 steefage
passengers will have arrived in
the United States, looking for
homes or work. The greatest
number arriving in any previous
year was 857,O46, during the
twelve months ending June 30,
1903. For 1904 the total was
612, 80, and for 1905 it will be
100000 and 100000.
These are appalling figures.
They are more appalling when
they are analysed and their sig
nifcance more fully understood.
They mean that in single year

of humble people equal
to or greater than the present
population of any one Of the eigh
teen states of the Union.
1t means that if all these new
comers, poor of purse and most
of them poorer yet in qualifca-
tions for citizenship, were to as
semble in one place they would

population by only New York,
Chicago and Philadelphia.

Of the year, one is to be added
during the twelvemonth from
the steerage of the trans-Atlan-
tic steamships. It means an in
crease of about 20 per cent in
the number of men in the United
States whose means of livelihood
is such that they are officially
classed as ''laborers" in the cen
sus reports-and this 2oper cent
increase in a single year is reach
ed by reckoning that only about
one-half of the new arrivals
will join the ranks of workers at
the bottom of the industrial lad
der.
In view of these amazing facts,
| it is not surprising to learn that
President Roosevelt has upon
his desk a collection of reports
bearing upon immigration which
he is carefully studying with the
intention of urging consideration
of the problem upon congress at
an early day. In the opinion OF
the President and his sdvisers,
this is a problem with which the
tional law makers and the
American people must wrestle
and that speedily.

National Game.

f .
The ball game, Colgate VS..
Hope, on the Hope diamond Tues.
day afternoon was one of the
first real games played on the
home diamond this season. The
Colgate boys failed to quiet their
nerves before entering into the
game and as a result the Hope
Nationals run in five scores the
first inning and Colgate walked
out with a goose egg; in the
second, Hope got one and the Wis
itors a cipher; the third broke
even, one score each; the fourth,
Hope managed to get one and the
visitors won-0; in the fifth each
walked out with a big round
hole; the sixth went even with
two scores each; in the seventh
is where Colgate handed the
Hope boys a bunch to the tune of
three nice straight tallies mark
ed-to their credit, and the Ma
tionals went up one, two three
and out; the eighth, 0 each; up
to this point of the game the
score stood 6 to 10 in favor of the
home team, but how those Col
gate lads did chase themselves
around the diamond in the last
inning to the tune of four runs
which tied the score. Hope went
to bat and pounded the cover for
score, without a man out, which
ended the game.
| Umsted, Colgate's twirler, is a
good pitcher and understands
the game, and in fact the whole
bunch are not so bad. Manager
Danslin certainly let the boys
know that he had not entirely
forgotten the game and had tht
honor of making the first score
for the visitors.

us that we can look for some
thing good before the end of tn
