immigration Discussed.

Il cannot close without some reference
to the question Of immigra ton, and the
attitude that ought to be taken by the
lovers of our country. I am one. of those
who believe that America is greatly bet
ter in her present condition. and will have
still greater advantage in the future. be-
cause of the infusion into our body poll
tic and social. of the sturdy peasantry
and the better educated classes who have
come to us from the nations of Europe
In the actual development of the country
il would have been impossible for us to
have done what has been done i'm the con-
Struction of railroads, in the development
of our farms and in the establishment or
our industries had we not had the strong
arms and the. steady heads of those who
have come to us from continental Europe.
Assuming that the foundation of our
country and the original people here We're
from the islands of Great Britain and
ireland, and treating the foreign ques-
ton as one now OF immigration from
continental Europe. l repeat that do not
share in the fear that our citizenship is
ultimately likely to suffer by the coming
from other continental countries for the
purposes of permanent settlement OF any
Of the peoples who are now coming:
I'VE have a right to have and ought to
have immigration laws that shall prevent
our having thrown upon us undesirable
members of other countries, like the
criminals, the imbecileS the insane and
the permanently disabled but We have
vast territory here not yet filled, in the
development of which We need manual
labor of a constant and persistent kind,
and / think we have shown in the past.
as we shall show in the future, that our
system of education Is sufficiently thor
ough and sufficiently attractive to those
who come here that they of all others
avail themselves of 1t with prOmptness
and success.

Abiding Faith in Institutions.

81 have an abiding faith in the in
fluence of our institutions upon all who
come here. no matter how lacking i'm edu-
cation they may be, If they have the
sturdy enterprise to leave home and to
come out to this new country to seek
their fortunes. 1t is not the uneducated
who scoff at education: they value 1t.
They sacrifice everything to enable their
children to obtain that which they were
denied. The second generation OF a
sturdy but uneducated peasantry. brought
to this country, and raised in an atmos-
phere Of thrift and hard work. and forced
by their parents into school to obtain an
instrument of self-elevation, have always
contributed to the strength Of our people.
and they will continue to do The diff
ficulty that they do not speak our Ian
guage makes the process of amalgama-
ton slower perhaps, but 1t does not pre-
vent II.
Il am proud of our country that We
have had its doors swinging easily open
for the Industrious peoples of other coun-
tries that have sought ours for greater
ha ppiness and quicker development and
he would be blind indeed who would deny
that a substantial part OF our progress is
due to this policy of generosity toward
those who are seeking the atmosphere OF
freedom and the land Of equal opportu-
nifty.

Espouse the American Cause.

And when in later years in an effort
to rescue his country and restore its rend-
ed parts to a whole, Thaddeus koscuszko
Won another battle, which. however. was
fruitless in its results, We are rejoiced in
studying his character to find the same
knightly chivalry. the same effectiveness
as warrior and the same high purposes
as statesman that We recognize in So
bieSki centuries before and it furnishes
exquisite pleasure to an American to
know that kosciusZko and another valiant
Pole, Pulaski, We're attracted to this
country to aid in it's struggle for liberty
and independence in the war of the revo-
luton; that Pulaski. after having led
many a valiant charge, gave up his life
for his adopted country, and that his
ashes now rest in the soil Of the nation
that he helped and sacrificed his all to
create.
1T was not the fate of kosciusZko to
lose his life in the revolution, or to re-
main with US after it's successful event.
He returned to his beloved Poland. We
these heroes. and the bronze statues of
their memory that now adorn beautiful
squares in Washington are true ex-
preston of a grateful nation for most
valuable services In a time of need
The Poles are a people having quail
ties that We can Well afford to incOr-
porate into the composite American citi-
zen that our policy of national hospital
ity is creating. Having. in the first place,
the highest spirit of hospitality them
selves, they are able to appreciate it and
treat it with proper consideration when
they are themselves the object of it.
Brave and generous to a fault warm
hearted, they have both the winning ways
of the Irishman and the urbanity and
delightful manners of the French. With
an innate love of the picturesque and the
poetic. they cherish all the traditions and
legends and customs that add so much
pleasure to their home life. They are a
farming people They love the soil, and
they know how to treat it. BY force of
circumstances they have been brought
into industrial employmen in this coun-
try, more SO. perhaps. than they would
themselves like. and more so than they
will themselves be compelled to accept in
the development of our country.

WAITING TO BEGIN ON
 CRESCENT BEACH EXTENSION.
East Lyme Trolley Road Has Material
 All ributed-Hearing Friday.

Having the rails and ties all distrib- uted now along the line of the proposed extension of the East Lyme trolley road from Mantle to Crescent Beach the trolley road people are all ready to proceed with the work as soon as the layout is approved by the public utili- ties commission. The hearing is set for Friday, but it is expected that it will be merely a technicality and that the extension will be approved.
 The plans call for the laying of the tracks on the left hand side of the road along the main street from it's present terminal to the railroad station in Crescent Beach. There was some sentiment that the tracks should be laid in the center of the road in the main street, but this is thought inn practicable
 It is expected that work will begin not later than the first part of next week. and possibly before then. The plans for the road were approved by the selectmen at recent meeting and the extension is meeting the approval of everybody in the vicinity
 The company in it's petition says it desires to construct and operate an extension of it's tracks in the town of East Lyme from its present terminus in Mantle, west through Main street in Mantle to Black Point road and south eriy over Black Point road to a point near Crescent Beach station. total distance of 5,400 feet,

 wishes of Mir. Cook. He is still at
 work upon individual coaching and much of the drill is rudimentary. The Yale coaches are decidedly hopeful that the eight will respond to the command to quicken the stroke when 1t Is given | next week and that some fast rowing will follow for the conclusion of time work over the course.
