The clubrooms were filled on Fri
day evening when Senator w. P. Dill
ingham addressed the club on the sub
ject Immigration. Upon this
theme the Senator is specially well
qualified to speak, being member OF
the senate committee on immigration,
in which capacity he has visited the
principal countries of Europe, has
made a trip to the Sandwich Islands
and has visited all parts of his own
country in search of information rela.
tive to the intelligent handling of
this problem. The Senator prefaced
his more pertinent remarks by giving
a few interesting statistics regarding
the growth of the United States in
dustrially since the close of the Civil
War, taking that date for the real
starting point of our advancement,
thereby showing our need of large
number of desirable immigrants and
then proceeded to show that the state
ment, so often made by those ignOr-
ant of the true state of affairs, that
We are becoming the dumping ground
for all the criminals in the Old World
was manifestly misleading and un-
true. His description of the recep-
tion and disposition of immigrants
arriving at Ellis Island, the great re-
ceiving station at New York. was es.
pecially interesting, also the endeav-
ors of the government to stamp out the
white slave traffic. The danger Of
our becoming congested with foreign
ers, was, the speaker said, very slight
as the law of supply and demand OBJ.
tanned in this as in all other things.
That the recent immigration laws,
which compel steamship companies
to return at their own expense any
diseased passenger, besides being liza.
BILE to fine of one hundred dollars in
addition, had given US healthy class
of aliens, and that like law regard
ing those of criminal record at home
would give US immigrants with clear
bill of health, both physically and NOR
ally. The Senator also said turtle,
that his Investigations tended to show
that larger percentage of native
born children of foreign born parents
attended our public schools than chill
dren of native parents. as the common
school of America is almost unknown
in many European countries and i'm
migrants appreciate its utility ane
hasten to make use of these. While
practically avoiding remarks of politi
cal nature. the speaker did refer tt
Germany's government subsidy o.
steamship lines and predicted tina
the United States must ultimately d.
the same. Senator Dillingham; re
marks were we'll received and at thei
close he was given a rising vote o
thanks, for his kindness in comm,
to our club.

that it has sustained a great loss in
his death for although he had larger
and more important interests else
where which might be expected to en-
gross his entire attention yet he found
time to take an active part in the af
fairs of the Baptist church and Derby
Academy in this place, giving both of
his time and money to help them The
Odd Fellows Lodge, of which he was
member, attended the services and
escorted the procession to the ceme-
terry where he was laid to rest amid a
great profusion of flowers and ever
green He leaves to mourn his loss
his aged father and mother, his wife,
six daughters and one son, two
brothers, Albert and Elmer Silver, and
one sister, Mrs. W. Parker, besides
others not so closely related. To all
these the sympathy of the entire
community is extended.

sNAILHAN AND RILEY DRAW
SpeeiaI Dispatch 10 The Call

SACRAMENTO. March 2O.-Billy
Snaiiham and Joe Reilly fought 20
rounds to a draw before the California
athletic club last night. Snailham was
the aggressor most OF the time and
appeared TO have Reilly in a bad way
in the last two rounds The shade in
Snailham's favor was so slight, how
ever, that Referee James Brennan
raised the gloves of both boys at the
end OF the bout The decision was a
popular one. Young Wallace knocked
out Al Buckley of Denver in the second
round in the first preliminary Dick
Hardy OF San Francisco was put out
in the same number by Young Sullivan
in the second bout
