To put it in another form. in proportion to the population there are twice as many foreignborn white prisoners as native born. There are nearly four times as many foreignborn white paupers as native born. Comment is unnecessary. if not misleading. No eloquence could paint in more vivid words the appalling facts which these figures present. Let us now examine another item of proof more convincing. perhaps. than that just adduced. During the year ending June 80.1896. the number of immigrants landed at ports of the United States was 343.267. These brought with them money amounting to $4.917.318. or $14.30 each. How long did that sum suffice to support these new additions to our idle millions?
