These are the countries with which we have least iii com11on and whose people we find most difficult of assinlilation. The number of iimigrants coming from Europe is constantly increasing. and the great majority come from southern Europe and the countries bordering on the lIediterranean. Caspian. and Black Seas. Not all but many of these people are of mixed races. For thousands of years people from Asia. the north of Africa. and the south of Europe have contended for supremacy along the borders of these seas. and this in a large measure accounts for the mixed blood of the people living there today. The immigrants who came to this country prior to 1883 were mostly from England. Ireland. Scotland.
