I also inclose you an extract from the report of the chairman of the legislative committee to make an investigation of the foreigners in our penal and charitable institutions. I will during the day receive from Mr. Brower a report as to our jail. of which he is warden. and send that. The most astonishing thing in regard to our foreign emigration is the number of them that are getting into our charitable and penal institutions. They crowd our almshouses and our jails. If there was no reason other than that. this hundred. dollar tax should be imposed upon these foreigners.
