More Immigration.

In single day last week more than IL
600 Immigrants were disembarked at Ellis
Island, If the past may be taken rs
any criterion, New York, which doesn't
want them, will draw and hold the vast
majority of these new Corners. They may
be expected to go In swarms to the me-
tropolis and squeeze in thcGe to augment
still further the congestion of an over
crowded city.
How foolish to allow this sort Of thing
TO go on year after year! What an un-
necessary waste of good population! The
South. for example, Is In very differ
cnt position from New York city In regard
New Yorl, Is the reverse. 1t is mere folly
to permit this contrast to be emphn-
sized with the passing years, rather than
corrected, TO the advantage of both, by
simple and Obvious measures.

Yet Mr.. Garrison thinks it was right
to put the ballot into the hands OF
