Immigrants and the Birth Rate.

The figures given out by the census
bureau showing what is described as an
astonishingly higher birth rate among
foreign born Americans than among
native Americans are perhaps not SO
astonishing after all.
It is common knowledge that the
families of foreign born parents are
larger than purely American families.
It: is safe to say that they have been
for many years, though the figures now
published are the first ever made by
the national government, but persons
who are distinctly American in their
feeling. habits, prejudices, customs and
thinking continue to govern America
and lead the American people. "

elements brought into the population
by recent immigration will have tend

assumption that lacks support in ma

that between it and Paris there are
parallel originalities. The gayety Of the
streets; already certain aspects Of pic
turesque antiquity; the atmosphere Of
welcoming; the vivacious spirit, cordial
hospitality and disintercsted enthusi-
asm for talent, merit or novelty; a GER
tain quickness to adopt and to discard
ideas, art movements and people; q
restlessness at times too feverish; a
love of pleasure, elegance and luxury;
a tendency to respond instantly and as

PATRIOTISM.

The Review is publishing this week
a patriotic address by Father j. NJ
Hanson, of Dunlap, at the St. Pat
ricks entertainment held at the Cath
Ole auditorium on Sunday night. We
publish the address because Of the
patriotic sentiment expressed in it as
well as the high literary merit of the
address. The address follows:
my Country tbs of thee, sweet
land of liberty, OF thee I sing"
Patriotism may be defined as love Of
country and loyalty to its life and
veal; love tender and strong, deep
as the affection for son and for moth
err, strong as the pillars of death, 10y
atty generous and disinterested
shrinking from no sacrifice, seeking
no reward save country's welfare.
Patriotism is innate, Unborn in man
but in order that this sublimest OF
public virtues may grow, blossom and
bear its full fruit, the Land which we
call our home must be nation worthy
|of being loved. Without the boons
of political and religious liberty the
fairest spots on earth are to those
born in them, places of more dismal
leXile than the Siberian mines. With
Ethe possession and exercise of these
kGod given rights foreign lands; be
EGhey the hospitable shores ofsthe Arc
kxic sea, are more radiant with happ
hnes than tropical clinles endowed with
the richest wealth within the gift Of
nature. In quest Of these boons the
truest patriots have abandoned their
native land to find or found country
in foreign parts. The sentiment that
aroused the first patriot, that has
fired the patriots since, and that will
cease to resound when the last pat
riot expires, is the battle cry for
our affairs and our firesides, for re.

mainly. But let the woes and sorrows
of the people of other climes be what
they may this land of ours has been
Proyidentially , blessed with an atmos.
phere which could not fail to produce
a nation of patriots.
First of all our country is land in
which it is in itself extremely lovable.
In the language of the poet: 0, she
is rich and rare land, o, she is a
fresh and fair land, o, she is true
and dear land, This native land of
mine. Mighty and vast in territory,
she spreads out from ocean to ocean.
She is blessed with climate salubri-
GUS and healthful and a soil teeming
with fertility unrivaled in all the
world, and a mineral wealth enriching
all mankind. The beauty of her land
scape is so varied and charming that
Americans who have travelled in other
lands are unanimous in the verdict
that no one should go abroad until he
has Toasted his eyes and his imagina-
ton on the glorNs and the beauties
Of this fair land of ours.
Shall speak of her mountains of
awe. inspiring grarduer, capped by
eternal SHOWS, where savage wildness
ceases to be so because it is incon-
ciebly lovely, of royal gorge and the
tumbling cataract; of mighty and maj
este rivers, like arteries leading from
the nations heart, bearing in silence
and power. their burden of waters to
the sea of myriad crystal lakes mir
roring in their placid bosoms the
beauty of the surrounding landscape
of her wide billowy prairies, wales of
enchanting lovliness her wonders Of
forest, hill and plain?
Our country is young but yet how
materially great. Only four centuries
the shores of this promised land and
today the mighty republic bestrides
the continent like a colossus. Our
people, numbering less than one fif-
teenth the inhabitants of the globe,
do one third of its mining, one fourth
Of its manufacturing, one fifth Of its
agriculture and own one sixth Of its
wealth. A,a,t 2''.' .,.
But itsiss the moral beauty of our
land and beneficient laws under whom
our people are governed that fires: the!
soul OF the American with patriotic
pride. The constitution Of the U. S.
declared the great statesman, w. E.
Gladstone, is the grandest work that
was ever struck off at a given time
by the brain and purpose of man.
e Everywhere there must be recogniz.
ed among men difference in strength
in intelligence, in virtue and in oppor-
tunity, but in this country alone the
Constitution recognizes all as free
and equal before the law. 1t creates
no privileged class, bars no ones pro-
gress, but leaves open to all citizens
alike every avenue to wealth and posi-
ton. Here there is no condition or
Office to which citizen may not
laudably aspire and which he may not
hope to attain. Here the child of the
pauper may become millionaire, the
child of the unlettered philosopher,
and the child of the lowliest citizen
the president of the United, States.
And hence we may say in the words
of the poet:s Hail to the land where

STRIKE AvERTED.

4 The strike, which was to have TAX
en- place at o'clock Saturday night,
failed to materialize. The president
appointed committee, made up of
prominent politicians, to confer with
the railroad managers and the brother
hood with a view Of settling the ques,
ton and calling the strike off. It was
! first arranged that postponment for
forty.eight hours should be made, but
that if settlement was not had by
Monday night at o'clock the strike
would take place. After this adjourn
ment was had the committee confer
red with the brotherhood and with the
railroad magnates in an endeavor to
have the strike called off. The broth
erhood made no concessions, but
seemed determined to carry out their
purpose unless complete surrender
was made, but the railroad managers
took more patriotic view of the stu
alton and said that in view of the fact
of the International disturbance, that
they would yield to the demands of
the brotherhood rather than have the
strike occur. This agreement had
been arrived at prior to the time the
supreme court passed on the consti-
nationality of the Adamson law and
proved the patriotism Of the railroad
managers as. against those 4af .<the
The decision Of the su-
prene court on Monday, sustaining
the Iconstitutionality of the aAdamson
law settled the question by sustain
ing the eight hour a day law. We
wonder how soon people would come
to the understanding of how helpless
the government is in case Of a threat
ened strike by labor organizations.
The representatives of the government
have political reasons, have no cour-
age or fairness to treat the demands
of labor in the independent manner
they should be treated. President
Wilson from the beginning has shown
a disposition to throw his influence
with the labor organizations and there
is no question but what in this late
manner the committee appointed to
adjust the difference between the two
contending factions leaned toward the
labor organizations. The effect of the
victory for labor will mean an addi-
tional expense to the railroads Of per-
haps fifty or sixty millions of dollars
annually and it is theirs to determine
on whom the burden Of raising this
money must fall. 1t means an in
crease in railroad rates and every
body knows who pays the freight.

other declaration of war would have
been made If. congress had been in
s session since, the sinking Of the three
ships yof the country by German sub
marines. 1t is the prevailing opinion
that state of war now exists between
this country and Germany; that the
overt act necessary to precipitate war
HIS been committed and that a decla-
ration Of war has not been made by
this country because the body author
lied to- make it is not in session. II
this country means what it says, and
We have NO doubt but what it does,
then the acts of Germany cannot be
construed in anything but a challenge
to- the United States to make good the
declaration of war against Germany.
The probabilities are that as soon as
congress reconvenes declaration OF
war will be made and that means that
the resources Of the United States will
be employed to vindicate the honor OF
the country and to drive from the seas
the instruments of destruction EN-
ployed by Germany against the com
merce of the United States. "
