point of attack made by the opposition.
This point Mr.. Burnett stoutly defends,
and maintains that this test will keep out
the very class of immigrants most objec-
tionable to the laboring people of the
country. He declares that 'it is not an
attack upon the moral character of the
men and women who cannot read. know
that all over this country there are hun
dreds and thousands of good men and
good women who are illiterate," declared
Mr.. Burnett, land especially in the Sec
tion of the country from which l come,
because we have not yet risen entirely
from the depleted condition in which my
people We're left at the end OF the civil
war;"
Those 1t Would Keep Out
Mr.. Burnett declares that his bill will
keep out 80 per cent of the Poles. about
40 per cent of the Greeks, and from 60
to 70 per cent of the Turks. These are
the people, he says, who tried to reduce
the standard of wages paid in this coun-
try, because they are willing. to word for
lower prices than the laboring man of
the United States.
Representative Abercrombie in speak
ing in favor of the Burnett bill said
'The original settlers of America came
chiefly from Great Britain, Germany,
Scandinavia and other Teutonic countries,
and those countries furnished large ma
jority of the newcomers until within the
last third of a century In the Begin
ming nobody dreamed even that there
might ever be great influx of dissimi-
lar and unassimilable peoples.

tion of our citizenship has taken place
in the last third of q century. Within
that period immigration from northern
and western Europe has grown smaller

but / deny his right to do so at the eX-
pense of his district The law that
have cited makes it your duty to deduct
from his salary the pay for each day
that he Is absent from his duty, unless
he has lawful excuse, and it is up to
you to enforce that law. 1t does not
make any difference if the law has been
ignored in the past. A lawful protest,
with affidavit attached, has been made
by a bonafide citizen of this republic,
and you are called upon to do what the
law says is your duty, regardless of past
customs.
If the House thinks the law is an un-
just one let it repeal it. 1t was passed
when statesmenship was in flower and
that great slogan was faithfulfulness to
duty in every walk of life.

This law points to you a path OF duty
that it will be well for You to seriously

you have thought.

John T.. Randall

Funeral services of John E. Randall
were held yesterday at the family resi-
dence TWenty-fifth street Ensley, and
a large concourse of people turned out
TO pay the last tribute to Ensley's first"
citizen and the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad company's Oldest employe at
the Ensley plants. Rev. w. e. Morris,
pastor of the Woodlawn Methodist
church officiated, assisted by Rev. T.
r. Hay of the Presbyterian church of
Ensley. Attending the funeral were many
of the early citizens of the Steel City,
who were neighbors or fellow workmen
of the deceased, and many beautiful floral
designs were laid on his bier.
Or. Morris paid tribute to the self
forgetfulness and the long useful life of
the deceased and his faithfulness to every
trust. He referred to the time when as
a young preacher he came to Ensley II
years ago, and of the encouragement and
assistance given him and the struggling
church by Mr.. Randall and his family,
