But inferior peoples! In the
French system there are no inferior
peoples All the peoples OF all the
lands where the French flag waves

are citizens of the French republic
exactly like all other citizens there

That is why there is now this ex-

The colonial policy OF the French

A GOOD MOVE.

Attorney General LANCER has ask
ed for one more assistant to handle
special work. especially violations OF
the LIQUOR laws. 1t would be wise to
grant the request and settle early in
the session the biennial struggle OF
Mr.. Watkins 10 get on the state pay
roll as special law enforcement Off
Ger.
Mr.. LANCER is taking the right stand
that this work should be handled
through regular legal channels and
not be left to the private reformers.
With this issue out OF the way, the
Prohibition agitators can retire and
allow other legislation to take its
course unhampered. North Dakota is
a unit on the liquor issue. This state
is in the dry zone to stay and there
is no necessity of forcing the dry
issue at every session and clogging
the Legislative machinery.
Assign special enforcement OFF,
Ger who is an attorney to Mr.. Lang
er's ONCE. Let him watch legislation
aimed to break down our laws against
the liquor traffic and other social
evils.6
II this is done the spectacle Of two
. years ago will be avoided, when leg
islation was practically suspended for
days while Mr.. Watkins and his CO
horts made valiant drive to get 4
place at the public crib.

llTERACY TEST.

Il 1t is more than two years that i'm
h migration from Europe has practical
~ stopped.
What we talked of as a grave prob
lem. before the war, has become an
opportunity.
The problem was what was to be
done with the million or more arri'.
ais who came here yearly from Italy.
Austria Hungary, Russia and the
, Saw states and toiled under difficult
ties we Americans should have clear
ed away The opportunity is doing
now what we should have done years
ago.
Until the early eighties we had
practically no immigration problem.
Then came new group Of arrivals
. from the south and east of Europe.
They were induced here from the
farms of Europe under illusions of
riches implanted in their eager minds
by, INSCRIPTIONS steamship agents,
whose only interest in the innocent
foreigners lay in prospects of profit
from steerage travel.
Arriving here. most Of them friend
less and with not enough money to
return. the immigrants did the best
they could to feel safe and as much
at home as possible-they lived in
colonies. each nationality by itself.
They retained their European char
acteristics. habits and customs and
cherished the hope of returning to
their native lands with the products
Of their toll here.
We Americans did not care. We
Americans at first looked upon these
foreigners who would not learn our
language, let alone give up their pc
culiar native customs. as uneducated
unfortunates. But when these uned-
ucated unfortunates pressed upon us
more and more, we Americans awoke
and howled.
Beware of the ignorant immi-
grant," We cried. and after many
years induced Congress to heed our
warnings.
II the president signs it. the liter
acy test bill will soon be law. That
means that every foreigner, before
entering the United States. must be
able to read at least 40 words of his
own language. That, we believe, will
keep out the ignorant immigrant I'M
