Theywent into something else because they had something else to do. What I can not account for is. if the wages in a cottonmill or any other mill in England are higher than they are here. why a man should leave high wages and come here and pay high prices for the neccasaries of life and get lower wages. Emigrants from the East went to the Pacific coast and they got higher wages. they had a better field. and if they went into the same employment they got higher wages. I believe that is the case with this emigration that comes from Europe. I think there is nothing better settled than that they come here because wages are better. and because they can support their families better. and they never go back. There is no exodus from this country and will not be any as long as our resources last and we are Americans enough to protect them tbr our people.
