Labor is a commodity in the worlds market. and will go like all other commodities where it can command the highest price. and we pay our laborers higher wages than are paid by any other country in the world. Japan can send from one to five million of her people into tlie United States and never miss them. Suppose that should be done--and there is no reason why it should not be donewhat then would be the condition of the American laborer? lie would have to compete with those coolies or go with(ut emiploymcnt. and he would go without employment. because lie could iiot compete with them. And the result would follow that there would be an arny of uneplnroyed white laborers wvith no possible way of earning a livelihood or supporting their families ajid forced out of employment by this cooly competition. What vould we do with them?
