They work during the summer season. and in the fall they go back by the thousands. I think that those people ought to be kept out. If you try to do it by the use of the word "immigrants." they say they are not immigrants. they are "tourists." they are "visitors." it is not their intention to reside here. and hence the steamship company will not pay this fee. I want something done that will be restrictive of this immense immigration. I received in my mail yesterday a communication that I suppose contains a statement of facts. Among others is a comparison for January. February. March. and April of 1900 and 1901 and 1902 of the immigrants coming into this country. In the four months of the first year 149.000 came. in the second year 154.000. and thus far this yearI am speaking of the four months this year30.000 have already come. If that ratio is kept up. 700.000 of these people will come here during this year.
