 Both in the United States and across the Atlantic he is quickly taking a most enviable place in the regards of people. The press of the British Isles particularly speaks in glowing terms of him. The London newspapers have gone 30 far as to declare him to prom ise being the greatest president sin ,e Lincoln.

NEAR END OF LONG FIGHT
Burnett Expects immigration
Bill Will Go to President
in January.

I'VE expect to hand the immigration
bill to the President some time in jan
uary. said Representative Burnett of
Alabama. who saw his favorite measure
pass the House Wednesday after six
years of the most active opposition. He
said today that as soon the House re-
convened after the holidays conferees
would be appointed to meet with Senate
conferees ard that the resulting measure
would be one that the country has been
clamoring for since the immigration
question began to be serious.
The passage of the bill was marked by
the fact that, for the first time In the his
tory of the House. calendar Wednesday
was suspended to get a vote on the bill
This bill is not a radical one. said
Mr.. Burnett today. 1t contains many
things the country at large wants. a
great part of my district contains fine
old German families. and ! haven't the
slightest idea ever of attempting to bar
the fine men and women from Europe. 1t
is the scum that | am working against.
and | think the country is with me- 1t
is the sweatshop man and the ignorant
and dangerous bandit that this bill will
keep out.
