The salary paid now to the inspector or superintendent at New York is. I think. $6.000. but I believe that three inspectors there. at a salary of $4.000 each. would be ample to do the work. and the compensation would be a very fair one. The question is. shall we change the present method of doing the business. or retain that method. only defining more clearly just what power the Secretary may have and exercise ? I am of the opinion that the retention of the present system. thus improved. is better than this new experiment of a commissioner and an immigration bureau located at Washington.
