If we permit our prohibition friends to go up to Ellis Island and teach their lessons there. we might as well go a step further and permit emissaries of the Republican party to teach immigrants the meaning of protection and sound money. and we might allow emigsaries of the Democratic party to teach immigrants what free trade and Bryanism means. We might admit the missionaries of the idea that all people should be drilled in military service. and we might introduce on the floor of the great halls in Ellis Island gymnasiums for the purpose of drilling and. training those immigrants before they are admitted to the streets of New York. where. by the way. they can drink as much as they please.
