Do you wonder. then. that the illpaid people of the earth are seeking our shores by the million per annum? More than .50.000 people. representing a score of countries. arrived at our shores during the first three days of last week. to share with us our unequaled pay roll. Shall we now follow the advice of our opponents. and swing ajar our doors for the larger importation of merchandise which we now produce. or shall we rather safeguard ourselves by safeguarding these immigrants. and insure to all the privilege of producing the largest practicable share of that which the American people consume? There be some who profess alarm at this large influx of Immigration. I suggest one sure way of stopping it.- Put the Democratic party in control. Immigrants never seek our shores in large numbers when freetrade policies have closed our factories. When millions of our own people are walking the streets. their families begging bread. there is little temptation for the people of other countries. however unfortunate their condition. to turn their faces this way. And be it known that our doors of trade can not be opened to the free admission of competitive merchandise from abroad without closing the doors of the shops and factories where this merchandise is now produced.
