The objectionable population in the Territories will year by year fade away and disappear. By the census of 1900 only two of the New England Staths showed any gain. Massachusetts and Connecticut. and the gain in each of these was in foreign population. which immigrated and settled in their cities. Take Minnesota and Wisconsin and other Northwestern States and seewhat a menacing population is growing up in each of them. There is far more danger from the objectionable populations which we are trying so hard to restrain with immigration laws in the New England States and in our great cities than these objectionable classes in the Western Territories. Thdre are more Irish today in New York than in Dublin. Chicago is the largest Polish city in the world.
