The question Of emigration is attract
ing considerable attention in Italy at
present. as public opinion IS alarmed at
the drain which it constitutes upon the
male population Of Southern Italy. YET,
according to a very interesting report
drawn up by Dr. l. Villaro. who has
been commissioned by the Italian gov
ernment to investigate the condition Of
the Italian emigrant. in some parts Of
the United States the poor Italian la
borer's lot is not such that the Calabrian
peasant need envy.
DIT. VHlaro points out that the foreman
is practically an autocrat. and seldom d
benevolent one. maintaining discipline by
the stick or the revolver and usually
backed up BY the company which en-
pl0ys him. He describes the so-calle3
pe0nage. which exists in some places, by
which the fOremen lock up the workmen
II night. so that they cannot escape. and
have them guarded by armed watchmen
and "shadowed' by detectives of the
worst stamp. The account which the
author gives Of justice as meted out 10
the emigrant deserves the attention Of
the American authorities. Still. in spite
of these things the tide of Italian emf
grafton continues 20 set steadily toward
the United States, while he Italian Red
Sea Colony attracts practically no one.
Tunisia is more popular and the Ar
gentine Republic is largely an Italian
State.

Special Gable 10 The Washington Herald
London, Oct 26.-Drastic measures have
been adopted by the German government
in the hope Of settling the vexed native
problem in the Southwest African Pro
tectorate.
BY order of the governor, the following
three regulations have now come into
force:
First-Natives are, as a general rule, in
future prohibited from acquiring rights
over or titles to land. They can acquire
such rights or titles only with the sane
tion of the governor.
Second-Natves are in future, as
/ general rule, not permitted to possess or
keep animals for riding purposes, or big
cattle. Permission to keep such animals
must be obtained in each single case from
the governor
Third-Each native is required to be in
possession of a passport
According 10 the general regulations
the governor permits natives freedom OF
I movement In the colony, but, when I'M
poTtant reasons demand 1t, a native can
be forbidden 10 remove out of his district,
and a passport. without which a native
cannot travel from one part OF the colony
10 another can be refused him.
A special authority. termed the native
commissioner, is appointed 10 supervise
the natives. but the right Of supervision
is also given 20 civilians farmers, and
employees, and, indeed, Ito every white
man as such."
These regulations fulfll TO some extent
the demands advanced by the German
colonial party. which urges that the ma
;,ves nave by their attitude toward the
government forfeited to the latter al.
rights TO the soil of Southwest Africa.
The Pan-Germans are delighted with
the regulations. which they say. will
enable the real colonization Of the pro
tectoTate TO be proceeded with IN earnest
There is no chance OF white labor being
introduced into Southwest Africa, for the
government has decided 10 admit only
settlers who have sufficient capital to
start a fairly large farm. The possibility
of serious scarcity Of labor is, there
fore. likely to become acute, and the
Wndhoek Gazette complains already Of
a suspicious movement among the Here
