That less than two per cent OF the
Canadians who come into this country
from the rural districts of Canada come
here to work on or buy farms is the
statement of James Ford. inspector in
charge of the Newport immigration sta
ton. Mr.. Ford says that a careful esti-
mate of the number of persons passing
through his station in 1919 was 242,42.
OF this number about 5000 were aliens
who came to make their permanent homes
here OF for visit. Approximately 800 were
ordered deported during the year. About
one-half Of the 25.OCO came here to reside
and other half for a short stay.
Fully a quarter of the 5000, or one
half Of those who come here to reside.
went to the mill villages. The only work
hey knew was farming but they had
heard of the large wages paid in the towns
Tor even unskilled labor, and came to New
England with the intention OF learning to
weave or spin and make the big money
mat their relatives were making The re-
pilt Is a big drain on the farming popula-
Hon OF Quebec and neighboring provinces.

but found nothing of the negro. The
negro was first heard OF by his hold

demanding hands up. Not finding
much results from the small victims
he next entered house on Spring
ST.. near the intersection of Garden A
lady inside saw him and notified the
police which frightened the negro
away SO far as could be learned the
negro never got anything in mis- hold
up efforts.
An accurate description of the negro
was given by the children and by the
lady in the house where he next ap-
pcared. He was a tall, black negro.
wor, a long overcoat, had a black
mask over his face and q straw hat.
The police department is still looking
for the negro.
