THE L1TERACY TEST.

(New York Journal of Commerce.)
There is a general complaint the
country over of a lack Of ommon Ia
Dor on farms and in workshops, on
railroads and public works requiring
excavation and the rough work Of
construction, as well as in many
manufacturing establishments. such
productive work is Of value to the
country, and the policy Of excluding
alien laborers unless they can read
is excessively foolish. There would be
some sense in requiring ability to read
as a qualification for naturalization.
but there Ia nom whatever for requir-
ing 1t as a condition of admission to
the country as settlers and residents
to help build UP the Industrial popu-
lation.
Such a test would be the reversal Of
a policy which has done much to build
up the country and make 1t prosper
Gus. 1t is inconsistent with our boast
ed principles Of democracy. The de-
fective, incapable and physically or
mentally weak may we'll be kept out.
but the exclusion Of sound material
for a future growth as a nation 10 ut
terly fatuOus and would be a conces-
sion to a narrow prejudice or q mar
rover self1shness in those already here
| who ignorantly imagine that their OPP
portunities are impaired by sharing
them with others. It'll is to be hoped
that the senate will show sufficient On.
lightenment to prevent the final enact
ment. Of any such test Of fitness for
useful work in the United States.

East Grand Forks
Year Just Ended Profitable;
City Sees Splendid Growth
Extensive Paving and Ornamental Lighting System Are Most
Important d tho Changes Md During Past Year
Paruchial School Another Tea51Ta.

The year 1919 was q remarkable
one In the history Of East Grand
Forks. In fact. from many viewpoints
1t proved the most remarkable and
successful in the history of the city.
Much has been accomplished in the
way OF civic Improvement and beauty,
and in the construction Of new homes.
which now rank among the very best
on either side Of the river.
In the way Of public buildings. the
most important constructed during
the year was the Sacred Heart Pa
.rochtal school. which opened early in
September. In civic improvements.
the most important work done was
in. paving and in installing the new
street lighting system. Aside from
this. the city purchased forty.two
ecres for park property. the school
the Central school building. and the
members Of the Mendenhall Memorial
Presbyterian church had their build
ing rebuilt. so as to provide additional
space.
But perhaps. the most important
INDIGESTION Of the city's prosperity 10
the condition Of the municipal nm
ances. When the city council COM
menced work at the beginning Of a
new term last January. they had but
$1o.57s in the treasury. When they
completed work yesterday for the
year 1912. they had a balance Of APP
proximately 5000 in the treasury.
During the year. a number Of very
important improvements and changes
maidstone Of which have been
paid for in full-and considerable
money has been expended in paying
terest and Indebtedness OF past years.
Paving Activities.
During the summer $1,000 yards OF
extending from DeMers
avenue bridge to the Northern Paci-
fc railroad tracks, which cross the
street at. it's eastern end. were put
down. The cost Of this work totalled
346.339.7o.
Following this. the new ornamental
street lighting system was installed
at a cost of $4,000 This gives the
city the best street lighting system
1t has ever had, and adds greatly to
the appearance of DeMers avenu
The council also purchased the for
acres Of land extending from
the Northern Pacific tracks on Fourth
street to the Red river and along the
river to First street, for park property.
The land was purchased for $1,000.
This land makes excellent park prop
erty. and will he improved during the
coming summer to suit the needs Of
the city. t.' l
A Washington avenue bridge
across the Red Lake river was con-
structed during the summe at a cost
Of $12, 600, half Of which was paid by
the city.
