TRUST VETO

TT is EVIDENT the steamship
trust has humbugged the country
Il by an ingeniously conceived and
cunningly executed legislative feat
with regard to the immigration ques-
ton. When it became, evident that
Republican manufacturers and cap
tains of finance were using inmigra-
tion for the purpose of reducing wages,
keeping labor in it's place" Gas they
put it, and causing an overcrowding
of the army of wage earners, which
gave Republican employers cheap la
Dor, sent the white American to the
soup kitchen and robbed his children
of education, the Democratic party
was strongly in favor of an educational
test to restrict immigration coming to
this country. But Republicans took
alarm at a proposal which would have
interfered with the operations of the
steamship trust, which has been maxi
ing it's steerages larger and larger and
larger, and now advertises an "al
steerage' service between south
ern European ports and the United
States. Instead of attracting public
attention to one of the most important
public questions of the day. which
must be settled sooner or later, or it
will settle" the United States, the
Republicans offered a compromise
measure. Never mind the education
test" said the Republican leaders,
there are many Americans who could
not take such a test successfully, so
why be inconsistent and apply it to
immigrants? Instead, let us regulate
this matter from a physical point of
view. Let us see to it that only good,
healthy immigrants are admitted, and
in order that they may remain healthy
during the voyage let us compel the
owners of immigrant ships to increase
air space and provide better accom-
modations. This will at once reduce
the number and improve the quality
of immigrants" But apparently the
Republican leaders failed to consult
their masters.
The reform was to have gone into
effect January. 1909. But it won't be
adopted. The steamship trust is op-
posed to it. Such a measure would
cause expense to the trust and would
cut down profits. And "the trusts first,
the country second" is the motto Of
the Republican party in practice, and
Judge Taft cannot mend matters,
For tha welfare of the United States
Democratic president must be elect
ed. Republicans propose; the trusts
disnnseI
