IMMIGRATION RECORD
IS BROKEN YEAR
ENDING JUNE 80
Number OF Immigrants Coming Ia
Our Shores Reached Total OF
Over 1855

Advance figures serve TO show that
the number of immigrants for the
fiscal year ending June 80, as reported
to the immigration bureau will exceed
10000
The statistics of immigration form
an interesting study, and plotted on
graphic chart with curves would show
remarkable fluctuations dependent up
on industrial and political conditions.
In 1850 the number had reached $685.
$50; by 1880 it had grown only TO
457,257, and actually fell To 44S,572
i'm 1900. But by 1906 the figures had
more than doubled, reaching 1927
421. The high water mark was at
tanned with 1888 in 1907; but the
two following years brought a decided
falling off, to ,7S6 i'm 1909, whence
the figures jumped again TO l,O41 $40
in 1910. The statistics for 1914 and
1912 fell far below the million mark,
and 1913 made a record only inferior
TO that Of six years beofre, with 1,197,-
S92 Thus it is seen that this years
enumeration exceeds the best previous
record by more than 10000 From
1889 to date the total is about 81, 000,-
600.
PENNSYLVANIA ranks second in num-
Der of immigrants, more than one
seventh of all arrivals giving this state
as their destination. The number
reaching here last year was lS2,744.
OF these 59,466 came originally
through the port of Philadelphia.
Thus it is seen that our interest in
& .ft 10
more than academic. Countless en-
terprises OF magnitude within our Dor
ders depend upon the mental and
physical capacity of those admitted
upon inspection. Though the emu
meration is simple enough, il is inn
possible To estimate the influence of
the $4,000, 900 on our institutions
Many Of these forgotten millions" of
every nation, instead of being an Off
securing of the earth, have been the
men whose unmurmuring toll laid the
foundation of the vast fabric of our
national prosperity. 1t is the crime
of national race suicide to keep law
abiding and dilgent laborers away
from our railroads and farms and
factories by the erection of other bar
riers than those Of the primary physi-
cal and mental stipulations. If the
test of intellectual superiority is to be
imposed, let it be remembered that
some of the most dangerous criminals
are the most learned. We do not
want bad men with brains Now man
will be rejected because he is scholar
but his first credentials should be
those of character rather than formal
educational.

CHURCHES ARE TO TAKE
TUBERCULOSIS CENSUS

A tuberculosis Census of thousands
Of churches in various parts of the
country will be takeIf in September,
under the direction of The
National Association for the Study and
Prevention Of tuberculosis. The CEN
sus will be part of the preparation for
the Fifth Annual tuberculosis Day TO
be observed during the week Of Nov
ember 29th.
The ministers Of several thousand
churches will be asked to report on
the number of deaths from tuberculo-
sis i'm the last year, the number Of liv-
ing cases in their parishes on Septem
Der LIST, the number Of deaths from all
causes, and the number Of members
or communicates. These figures will
be made the basis Of an educational
campaign, which will eliminate in
the Tuberculosis Day movement, for
which occasion sermon and lecture
outlines and other forms Of tubercu-
losis literature will be distributed free
to ministers.
Last year nearly 5000 churches,
schools, and other bodies took part in
the tuberculosis Day observance. The
movement had the endorsement Of

MAJOR FRANK CHASE
GIVES G. A. R. NEWS

Major Frank Chase, chief of staff of
the G. a. r., states that preparations
are going ahead nicely for the national
encampment to be held in Detroit
August 81 to September /.
when the sun beams down upon
Detroit on the morning Of August 81,
says the major, "his slanting rays will
fall upon nearly 100, 900 strangers in
the city-40, 600 veterans of the War
Of the Rebellion and $4,000 relatives
friends and members OF organizations
kindred to the Grand Army of the
Republic"
Major Chase says that the encamp-
ment will be the largest national gath
ering in the history of the organiza-
ton. Detroit in the first place is cen
trally located, it is argued; secondly,
many of the veterans who were there
23 years ago in national encampment
have been clamoring for a return date
for the past II years, so impressed
with the reception and the city were
they upon their previous visit.

on the Same Level

Two of the leading daily news
papers Of Detroit. continue to disgrace
their commercial columns and out
rage the moral sense Of the decent
citizenship of the state with full-page
seductive advertisements Of various
brands Of beer.
BY this action these newspapers and
all of their type and kind place them
selves upon the same moral level with
saloonkeepers.
The salocnkeeper sells booze he
cause he wants the booze money.
These newspapers advertise booze for
the same reason. They are exactly
on the same moral level in this mat
ter.
How much weight does the advice
of a saloonkeeper on clean politics
and good government carry with in
telligent and moral citizenship How
much weight ought booze advertising
newspapers to carry along the line of
home making and the civic welfare?
The clean business and pure home-life
of the state and nation are making
ready their answer.-H. H. Il.

In Whose Control

IL is a remarkable fact that the bulk
of the liquor traffic in this country is
in the hands of very small number
of men. These men in the past have
grown immensely wealthy out OF the
bloody gains of this indefensible bust
ness.
This monstrous trade in CONNER
cialized iniquity is principally in the
grip of members of two nationalities.
Germans largely control in the
manufacturing and marketing Of the
beer product of the country and the
whiskey trade is being rapidly absorb
ed by the Jews.
But the rank and file of the in
telligent and Godfearing Germans will
not much longer stand Tor the national
disgrace which the present situation
brings The Germans are a liberty
loving people. and they are rapidly
coming to recognize that liberty that
is worth anything, individual or
national, is not bound up with a
schooner of beer on the bar of an
open saloon.
And the Jewish people, with their
passionate love of liberty, which 1000
years of persecution has not
crushed; with their long line of
heroes, scholars and men Of literary
genius will not for long, we believe,
consent that handful Of gold grab
bers among their number, shall, in
this land of their adoption, bind the
chains of the whiskey distilling curse
upon the individual and civic life OF
the nation.

The following is a notice taken
from the press bulletin of the Geo
logical Survey, and deals with th,
water supply Of the Mimbres Val
ley:
"Were il not for the many wind
mills in sight the travellers ON trains
crossing the great desert valley Of
Mimbres River near Deming, New
Mexico, would not suspect that this
region has water supply. II has
been found in recent. years that a
vide area Of this valley is underlain
by deposits Of sanr and gravel con-
tanning large volumes Of water that
can be pumped to the surface and
utilized for irrigation. OF late many
settlers have taken homesteads near
Deming and in adjoining districts en-
tending south through Columbus Ia
the Mexican line, and there is great
demand for land in which water is
available. About 300 wells have been
sunk, many pumps installed, and con
siderable successful irrigation ac-
complished. There is however, 81
limit to the area underlain by water
at moderate depth and in sufficient
volume for irrigation, and il is very
important for present and prospec-
tive settlers to know where water
supplies may be procured. To this
end n. II. Darlon, a geologist of the
United States Geological Survey, has
made an examination of Luna county
and written a detailed report which
will be published as soon rs possible.
Meanwhile an abstract of this report
has been prepared and just issued by
the Survey as Water-Supply Paper
345-C, a part of the Contributions
to the NEUROLOGY of the United States
1914" Il contains brief statements
as TO the extent and thickness of the
water-bearing deposits, the sources
and volume of the water, the rate
of movement of underground water.
the depletion of the supply, and the
quality of tn ewater. II gives also II
description of conditions found III
some representative wells in various
parts of the county and an account
of some unsuccessful attempts Ia
develop artesian flows by deep Dor
ings

ANOTHER SHIPMENT OF
CATTLE FROM THIS SECTION

j. l.. Palmer, senior member Of
the firm Of Palmer Cox company. one
Of the leading cattle handling firms
of Chicago and the East. with his
private secretary, Arthur W. Boy
son, arrived in the city Sunday TO
make arrangements for the shipment
of some 5000 head Of beef cattle.
which are contracted for last fall.
The cattle were two and three year
olds and will be shipped to the Cana
dian River Valley in Oklahoma, for
fattening purposes and will be put
in the market next fall. Mr.. Palmer
said that the present herd were the
first Of over 10000 head that had
been contracted for by his firm with
southern New Mexico and Arizona
raisers and that the remainder of
some 1000 head would be shipped
at intervals during the summer. it
being the idea Of his company TO ship
the poorest Of the lot first and leave
the more promising ones to the last.
He said that for the past year there
had been somewhat Of shortage in
beef cattle and that the promised
supply Of refrigerated beef from
Australia and South America had
not relieved the situation, but that
the cattle raisers Of Oklahoma. Tex
as, and the Southwest, were again
paying more attention to the raising
Of cattle. He also expressed the
opinion that the clearing up Of the
Mexican situation would again open
up the vast grazing domain Of north
ern Mexico and that locality would
again be the roaming quarters Of
vast herds as in the days before the
ate revolution in our sister republic.
Mr.. Palmer and his secretary left
or southern Arizona points Tuesday
to close up existing con-
rsets.

GOOD WELL BROUGHT IN

equipped only for 500 gallons Of wa

however. was easily pushed to 700
gallons and there was. evidently,
enough water for a much larger flow.
The well is located in that section
between Red Mountain and the Rat

ply was supposed to be limited. Wa
ter in abundance was found. however
