I know that that influx is not so great ag many people think. but it is great enough to be an evil. it is great enough to add 110.000 men to the ranks of breadwinners. It is great enough to suggest the possibility. to certain classes of capitalists. of cheaper labor in the future. and it is great enough. if it is not checked. to arouse the fears of every laboring man who respects himself and who loves his family. It swells the hordes of assisted immigrants. of contract immigrants. and of convict competitors to a mighty host. I know that men who talk as I am talking now are accused of demogogy. Let it be.
