But it fluight be a very serious hitItedin lt to :L MUa with a ftmnily. who would have to ly $4 for each lietad of thlt fanmily. I a inta conies with his family in order to nake this country his hotne for ill time to coil. it s:eens to tlie lie is tile very mnn who is a desirable acquisition to our popmlation. and our citizenship.
