THE VALUE OF IMMIGRATION.

William s. Rossiter, chief CLERK OF
the United States census Office. has
an article in one Of the leading maya
zines in which he gives q common

in general there are TWO conaictfng
opinions regarding .mmigration--he
opinion, on the one hand. that lnmi-
grafton should be strictly restricted
and. on the other. that IL should be
practically unimpede6. Mr.. Rossiter
points out how, from the ve-v in

presents statistics 10 show that great

present time. i is even smaller IN

has been IT several times IN our past
history, and he contends that there
should be no effort TO shut our doors
against aliens until II can be shown
that their coming imperiIs the ez.
istence Of the nation. or that indus
trious Americans are deprived Of al
opportunity Of making living By

The average man knows that there

Boiled the Alarm Clock.

Minneapolis Journal: Edward Jack
son doesn't expect his alarm clock to
assume all the properties of an intri-
cate cuckoo clock, but he thinks It
should at least cackle at meal time
after the treatment it underwent yes.
terday
The Jacksons live at 4024 Queen
avenue S. and like many another fam
lily they have an alarm clock and a
domestic. Both are new in the house
hold. The domestic assumed her
duties yesterday, after passing the re
quired examination in culinary sci
ence. Things went smoothly enough
until nearly noon, when Mrs. Jackson
told the new girl to boil eggs for the
luncheon.
Boil them five minutes by the
clock" Mrs. Jackson said, as she left
the kitchen for few minutes. The
girl nodded and set about the task.

On her return to the kitchen, Mrs
Jackson learned how carefully and
true to detail her command had been
carried out. There in the kettle. be.
side half dozen eggs, and well COW
cred with the boiling water, lay the
alarm clock. 1t was face up and still
going, but slowly. The girl stood BY
the stove with PUZZLED look on her
face, and then turned to her mistress
and said calmly. do you think they
are all right?'
The situation didn't call for a rep
rimand. The clock was removed and
set away to dry. Boiled eggs are now
tabooed for the sake of the girl who
tried to obey orders. but Mr. and Mrs.
Jackson are wondering what the girl
will tell her next mistress about the
funny way the Jacksons cook eggs.

and numerous foot paths run in all di-

rebuilt and mounted with cannon. At
the corner that projects farthest out
over the river large flag standard
has been erected, and by its side a

the heroes known and unknown who
defended this sacred spot.
The trench which was dug around
the fort is still discernable. The mas

Fort Massac park is indeed a monu-
uasns TO the zeal and enterprise of the
Illinois Daughters of the American
Revelation.
As DeSoto and his followers were
the first white men to discover the
Mississippi river, so were they the
first to select a temporary resting
place on the banks of the Ohio at Fort
Massac. Hence. it was first occupied
By white men in 1912.
George Rogers Clark carried the
American flag with him during his
conquest of the northwest. AS he
landed at Fort Massac June "a, 1878,
il is not only possible but quite prob
able that at Fort Massac the Stars
and Stripes were first unfurled in Illi-
nois by Clark and his men.
In 1857 Spain endeavored to intrigue
for the seizure of Fort Massac The
price to be paid was 100000. Luckily,
the plot failed.
In 1874, when General Wayne sent
Maj. Thomas Doyle to serve as gar
rison, the fort was occupied for the
first time by military forces of the
United States. Fort Massac, thus re-
built and garrisoned, became post
OF considerable Importance, and SO
remained until after Burr's conspiracy.
Aaron Burr arrived there in June,
1905, spending four days with General
Wilkins son. He sought to aid the
Spanish, who were advancing upon
Wilkinson. Burr's colleague in this
enterprise was Blennerhasset, whose
wife spent day and night at Fort
Massac. Wilkinson reported Burr's
traitorous act to President Jefferson
and aided in arresting the guilty
During the war of 1872 Fort Massac
was well equipped and was not really
abandoned until 1914.
