The Record-Herald summary is as
follows:
A very interesting map and table
n :he annual report OF the commits
sloner of immigration give a clear
.dea Of the racial elements included
in the immigration for the fiscal year
ending June 50. 1906. From them it
appears that out of a total of 1,1OO,-
735 immigrants 4OS .sOS, or more than
one-thlrd. are classed in the Slavic
grand division. Next comes the Iber-
lc, North and South Italian Spanish
and Portuguese. with oS3,54O; then
the Teutonic, 213,94O, and this is fol-
lowed by the Kettle, 1856, and
others whose contributions are rela-
lively speaking small.
These grand divisions, however, are
broken up into many subdivisions.
Though the word Slav is more COM
monty associated with the Russians
than with any other people. the i'm
migrants classified as Russian num-
hered only 5SA4. But out of Russia
there came 125, 5,234 Jews. 46,204 Poles,
13,2Gl Finns, 1929 Germans, 1887
Lithuanians and 9S7 Scandinavians.
The Jewish total is placed at 153,74S
the Polish at 95.S35, and Austria
Hungary contributes to both and
presents a most interesting variety as
follows: Poles, 43,SO3; Rohemians,
1855: Croatians, +S,157; Slovak, 35,-
$50; Dalmatians, 4424; Roumanians,
1851; Bulgarians, 1924; Italians
(north) 1914; Ruthenian, 1888;
eJws. l4,sS4; Magyars, 42,S4S; Ger
mans, 3S,S4S. OF these people all but
the Jews, Magyars, Germans and Ital-
ians are classified as Slavs.
The German total, made up chiefly
from Germany, 1855, and Austria
and Russia, is S6,Sl3; the Scandina-
Wan is 5S,141; English. including
Scotch and English blood, 45,07e
These with the Firms and Dutch make
up the Teutonic element.
Under the Kettle color are includ-
ed: Ireland. $3.50; the greater part
Of Scotland, 15,O4S; Wales, 216S
France, 6957; North italy, 4O,94O, and
part Of Switzerland.
The largest single race contribution
under the subdivisions is southern
Italian, 231 ,921. Grouped with it a!
Iberic are the Spanish, 1907; Portu
guese, s19S: Greek, 1896, and Syri
an. 4253. There arls some few Greek
from Turkey, and Jews, Roumanians
Bulgarians and Turkse from the ter
ritory along the lower Danube and be
tween the Adriatic and Black sea.
In a comparison with the preced
ing year the commissioner says
There was an increase in the pro
portion Of Iberlc from 81 per Ger
in 1905, to % per cent in 1905, wnil
the Teutonic and Kettle decrease
from 90 and IL per cent respective
ly in 1905, to 10 and II per cent /
1906. The Slavic remained tn
same"

ALSO A CAUCASIAN PERIL.

An Interesting summary-not mere
ly interesting because it is a compi-
lation of perhaps unexpected inform
alton, but because 1t affords material
for much deep and perhaps dubious
reflection-is that given below. 1t
is from a recent number of the Chi
caGo Record Herald. 1t gives some
bald facts concerning the relative pro-
portions of the immigrants to the
United States who are of the Cau-
casian race.
All one needs to convince him of
the utter undeslrability of a very
large proportion of these people as
habitants of the United States is the
evidence presented him by a trip
through the mining and manufactur-
ing districts of Pennsylvania, New
york. West Virginia, New England or
any other section of the country
wherein great numbers of Polaks.
Huns, "Dagoes" per Sc Off the express
sion NAV be allowed-and there are
Dagoes and Dagoes.") In some of
those districts are grouped tens of
thousands Of ignorant and brutal peo-
ple-the victims Of centuries Of OPP
preston. political and industrial-who
cannot by any alchemy of free gov
ernment, free schools and real liber-
ty be made citizens according to the
ideal American standards inside of
three or four generations. The re-
preston Of their racial characteris-
tics and development Of qualities
which will make them really desira-
BILE citizens, must be continued with
palnstaking thoroughness for the
next three or four generations. In
the meantime what is left of the first
generation Of corners, and the all
too-slowly decreasing proportion of
the dangerous element in their de-
scendants will be a menace to our
form of government and schemes of
progress.
The immigration of these people
began in great numbers to the United
States about 40 years ago, at the be-
hest Of the great manufacturing and
mining corporations, who demanded
cheap and ignorant labor-that could
be herded practically according to the
formula by which bond slaves are
controlled for 364 days in the year,
and voted with the same servility on
the 265th day. Corporation influ-
ence was responsible for the impor-
tation Of this element in the begin
ming, and 1t is responsible for the fact
that nothing is done, or can be done
10 restrict the immigration Of these
people at this day. They are too val
liable a voting asset now-those OF
them who can be controled-while
those who cannot be controlled arc

who become identified with any at.

men.
The proportion Of this element Il
that Of really desirable European i'm
migrants is very large-much NOR
than 30 per cent, though not so larg

with the educated and unobjection
able classes Of Mongolian immigrants

Milford. of the Methodist church, of this city, officiating. It was a very quiet home affair, there being only few rela- tives and intimate friends present.
 The bride was the widow of the late John Giles, deceased, and Is one of St. Francis county's noblest women, who is well known and highly esteem ed by large circle of friends.
 The happy couple were In the city Tuesday, and spent the day as guests of Mrs. k. J. Terry. The bride pre- sented lovely picture to those who saw her in her wedding gown, and her face was beaming with happiness. They left on the evening train for Brinkley to spend brief season with his friends, after which they will re- turn, and make their home on her place near Caldwell.
 Their courtship was of short dura- tion, although they were old acquaint- ances of many years ago.
 The Times extends them hearty congratulations and best wishes.
