Mr. Speaker. I present a bill at the request of a very large number of citizens of different Stateslaborers. mechanics. and personsconneeted with the minor manufactures of the country. butnow out of employmenfwho ask the aid and protection of the Government in emigrating with their families and forming communities and settlements in the agricultural and mining sections of the public domain. It has been carefully considered. I am informed. and represents the interest of a large unemployed population in the more populous parts of the country. It embodies substantially the principles of emigration prepared by Franklin in the settlement of Pennsylvuia. and more recently tried with success by Mexico and the states of South America. I move that it be referred to the Committee on Public Lands and printed.
