Continuing with what I was saying. the symposium shows that when these foreign arrivals have been settled in various parts of the South by somewhat artificial means. such as the intervention of State immigration agents. they frequently do not stay. Many proceed at once to the city. where they find permanent employment and conditions existing which. rightly or wrongly. they desire. It is not to be wondered at that they prefer the city. If there was any medicine that I could inject into the Yankee boys in my district to keep them in the country instead of having them flock to the city I should be glad to know it. I do not expect these aliens to have any less predilection for the city than those Yankee boys.
